Hogwarts becomes host

After returning to the ground, Hermione, Mr. Granger and Elaine left Gringotts and walked towards a restaurant diagonally opposite──

Professor McGonagall, Lupine and Mrs. Granger were sitting on the terrace eating lunch.

"It's so fast. I thought it would take two hours." Lupine said. "I was talking to the two ladies about the last time I was trapped in the Shafiq family's vault."

"It took so long because there was no piano last time." Elaine rolled her eyes, "Last time I designated the piano as one of the musical instruments that will appear next time. Just play one song and then let it go."

"Well, it's so troublesome for you wizards to withdraw money."

Mrs. Granger asked curiously. She had just heard her husband talk about the process of withdrawing money.

"It's because the Shafiq family's treasury is too tightly guarded. They are one of the oldest wizarding families. This kind of family treasury is guarded by dragons or sphinxes. Ordinary wizards' treasury only requires a key." Professor McGonagall answered , "But I remember that the Shafiq family's treasury can pass the magic test as long as there is a certificate."

"But I don't know what the proof is, and Nott doesn't know either. I just know that the Gringotts goblin can use the proof to get the corresponding money, provided it is available."

Elaine said with a headache, and ordered a burger for herself.

If he knew that she had asked the goblin to take the place, even if he wasn't afraid, a normal person wouldn't want to spend half an hour riding a roller coaster to get paid, right?

"It's transfiguration." After drinking lipstick tea, Professor McGonagall said, "I once saw Adair use it to turn a quill into the coat of arms of the Shafiq family to pay taxes, but Shafiq It’s impossible to get away with the family’s treasury using an ordinary coat of arms, there may be some kind of verification magic.”

"Even if you say so, Professor, I still don't know."

After lunch, the group walked to the wand shop.

Originally, Hermione strongly requested to go to the bookstore first, but Elaine got the support of the Grangers on the grounds that "you won't want to leave once you go in", so everyone put the bookstore as the last stop.

Professor McGonagall said that Hermione had a high chance of being sorted into Ravenclaw, and briefly explained the four houses of Hogwarts to the Grangers.

When the two wizards stopped in front of a small and shabby shop, the Granger family looked a little unbelievable.

They looked at the peeling signboard and the faded cushions inside the cabinet, and looked at Lupine and Professor McGonagall suspiciously.

"Well, Ollivanders is the best wand manufacturer in the UK. Almost all British wizards' wands are made by this shop." Lupine explained awkwardly.

"Well, it's the only one in the UK, so it's the best." Elaine added without mercy.

"Go ahead."

The six people approached the store, and Elaine also looked at the live broadcast room. Because when she visited Diagon Alley before, she only shot outside and did not enter the store. At this time, the number of viewers had exceeded 500 million, which was the usual 10 Times, she also saw barrages in various languages.

Fortunately, the live broadcast room will automatically add subtitles, otherwise the number of people would not be so high.

"Good afternoon." Ollivander walked out from behind and looked at everyone curiously. "Oh, Professor McGonagall and Mr. Lupin, are the other two Muggles? I have no memory of selling wands from these two, so this time my customer is a Muggle."

"Do you remember all the customers' wands?" Hermione asked curiously.

"Yes, miss, every customer," Ollivander said. "Professor McGonagall, for example, uses fir wood and dragon nerves, which are nine and one-half inches. Dragon nerves have the strongest energy and learn faster than others. They are suitable for excellent witches or wizards."

"As for Mr. Lupin, he chose a ten and a quarter inch wand made of cypress wood and unicorn hair. Cypress wands like brave wizards. My ancestors told me that selling a cypress wand is It's very honorable because we have another wizard who can fight against the darkness and is willing to sacrifice for others."

"But your eyes." Ollivander got closer and closer, staring straight at Elaine, "I remember these eyes, miss, are you related to the Shafiq family?"

"Yes, I am Elaine Shafiq, the successor of the Shafiq family."

"So you are a pure-blood, but you are friends with a Muggle girl." Ollivander looked suddenly enlightened. "You must have inherited your mother, Ruth Slughorn's gentle heart and unique personality." Horned animal hair and poplar wood, nine inches long, poplar wood represents trust and tolerance, and works best in the hands of wizards with clear moral values."

"But your father, Adair Shafiq, is completely different. He chose a wand of dragon nerve and laurel wood. It is eleven and one-half inches. It is very powerful and can cast spells very smoothly. It is suitable for those who pursue glory and The Wizard of Great Aims"

"Sorry, I just said it was a mistake for him to choose. In fact, it is the wand that should choose their wizard, not the wizard who chooses the wand. If a wand that should belong to another wizard is used, it will never be as good as this Effect." Ollivander continued to mutter, and he turned around and took out the tape measure. "Two ladies, who comes first?"

"Uh"

"Hermione, come first, I want to verify." Elaine took out her ears. It was really scary. This man had been talking since he entered the store, and even the barrage was frightened. "I guess her wand is grapevine wood and dragon nerve."

"Oh, you know wandology"

"I don't understand at all - don't look at me like that, just give it a try."

Are you trying to cause trouble? xdd

"Okay, let's measure the length first - Miss Granger, please raise your wand hand."

"Well, I'm right-handed." Hermione looked nervously at the tape measure that jumped on her body. The tape automatically opened and jumped around her body, ranging from arm length, height, knee length, and even The head circumference was measured.

"According to what Miss Shafik said, grapevine wood and dragon's nerves, ten inches, please try it." Ollivander took out a long box from the cabinet at the back and took out a brown wand, "Grapevine wood It’s suitable for those wizards who have noble pursuits, visions beyond ordinary people, and unexpected things, but I’m not sure.”

But before he could reach Hermione, the wand glowed on its own and vibrated in his hand. Lupine and Professor McGonagall frowned, and the Grangers were also startled.

"This is really surprising." Ollivander handed the wand to Hermione. Hermione carefully picked up the glowing wooden bar at the front and tried to wave it. Suddenly, light came from the top of the wand. It shot out, dragging a long silvery white line around Hermione's body several times before disappearing.

"Is this normal?" Mrs. Granger asked, swallowing.

"It's normal, but rare." Ollivander replied, "Vine wood wands are attracted to wizards who hide their secrets. It is more sensitive than other types of wands, so there is this kind of impatientness. There is no movement, but as Miss Shafiq said, this wand suits you very well."
