Chapter 3: Diagon Alley
After careful consideration, Kyle finally decided to cheat and conceal the news of the three-headed dog Fluffy.
Who told him to like Magical Creatures, but he is not Newt, and he does not have that unique talent. Magical Creatures like three-headed dogs are extremely rare, even in Greece. If you miss this opportunity, it won't be easy to see it again.
Comparing the two, it is better to cheat.
However, as compensation and to make his conscience go, Kyle immediately broke free from the twins' arms, came to Chris, and gave him an apologetic look.
Chris was confused.
The twins were also confused.
They were just preparing the action that was put on hold before the gift and sprinkled the jumping powder on Kyle's head. As a result, at the last moment, Kyle ducked and ran away. You know, their jumping powder has already been scattered!
Even if you are one second earlier or one second later, why is it at this time?
The twins were dumbfounded. They could only watch the jumping powder they had scattered draw a beautiful cross line in the air and fly straight to each other's heads.
"Hiss...hiss..."
"Scratch...scratch...scratch..."
Two relatively rapid gasps and a series of hair-rubbing sounds came from behind, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
As a result, when they turned around, they saw that Fred and George were scratching their hair like two adult baboons.
The hair, which was not very smooth to begin with, became even messier than a chicken coop under their hands. To be honest, the Sorting Hat looked better than their looks at this time.
"Fred!! George!! what tricks are you playing again!"
Seeing the strange looks from more and more people around, Mrs. Weasley walked to the twins with a flushed face, grabbed their ears with one hand each, and walked towards an alley next to them.
At least there were fewer people there so that she could lose fewer people.
Unlike now, right on the main road of Diagon Alley, her two sons actually imitated baboons in the street.
Merlin's beard! If they continue, the Weasley family's reputation for hundreds of years will really be gone, gone!
Mrs. Weasley's actions were very decisive, but it was hard for the twins. The sound of their inhalation was obviously much louder. In addition, I don't know if it was Kyle's illusion. He actually saw tears on their faces.
If it is true, then he can only say that they are really worthy of being twins, even though the position of their tears is the same.
On the other side, watching Mrs. Weasley take the twins away, Mr. Weasley was obviously relieved. He resisted the embarrassment and repeatedly asked everyone to go shopping first and not wait for them.
At the end of the team, Kyle hid next to Ron, and it was tough to hold back his laughter.
But the next second, when he looked up and saw Diana's gaze, he felt terrible all over, grinning and barely showing an awkward but polite smile.
My mother is good in every way, except that her sixth sense is ridiculously high. I have never been able to hide anything from her since I was a child.
"Really..."
Kyle scratched his head and thought to himself, "With such a mother, there is no privacy at all."
Diana didn't say anything. She just gave Kyle a warning look and turned her head away.
This matter is actually not that serious, and Molly is just too concerned.
A pair of twins, but they are notorious troublemakers in Hogwarts. Their deeds have long been spread throughout the wizarding world through students, and even Diana has heard of them.
Just the weird things she heard about. there are blown toilet seats, using a sack to cover Mrs. Norris during night tours, throwing Dungbombs under the seats of Slytherin first-year students, slandering them for pooping in their pants in class, etc. Diana thinks there should be more that she doesn't know.
Compared with these deeds, imitating baboons in the street is not worth mentioning.
Therefore, people who see it will only laugh at most, and it is impossible to raise it to the Weasley family. (Except for a pure-blood family member with long platinum hair who does not want to reveal his name.)
The reason why Mrs. Weasley reacted so strongly that she has not yet adapted.
Whether it is Bill, Charlie, or Percy, they are all extremely outstanding children. Mrs. Weasley will subconsciously replace this impression with the twins. Even if their usual behavior is very different from that of their three brothers, this impression cannot be erased in a short time.
After all, Bill and Charlie were not very honest at home, and when they first entered school, it cannot be denied that they were still among the best students in Hogwarts.
Let's put it this way. Just think about the serious Percy imitating a baboon in the street, and you can probably understand Mrs. Weasley.
However, this situation is only temporary. As long as one or two school years pass and there is more news from Hogwarts, Mrs. Weasley will slowly get used to it.
At least she would be much calmer when she encountered such a thing again.
…
Not long after the episode, the group also separated.
Because Ron and Ginny were not yet of school age, the Weasley family only needed to buy textbooks for the new school year for the twins and Percy when they came to Diagon Alley this time.
However, Kyle was a freshman and had a lot of things to buy, and the first and most important thing he had to buy was definitely the wand.
There was no need for a guide. Kyle walked through Diagon Alley with ease and soon found his destination.
That small, shabby shop.
Ollivanders: Makers of Fine Wands since 382 BC
Kyle stood at the door. Every time he came here, he was speechless.
This place is so shabby. The dust on the windows can be scraped off to build a sculpture at the door. Do wizards like the sense of age so much?
But Gringotts and the Broom Shop are very good. They look clean and beautiful.
Or is this the confidence of the exclusive business, and you have to come no matter what it is?
But Gringotts is also an exclusive business...
Kyle had thought about this a long time ago and even asked Chris and Mr. Weasley, but there has been no answer until today. Now, standing here, Kyle can only shrug his shoulders and regard it as the unruly nature of a craftsman.
As for asking in person, that is impossible. Kyle won't offend Ollivander. After all, he is the most famous wand maker in the British magic world, so it is important to maintain a good relationship with him.
However, Ron will be enrolled next year, so he can discuss it with the twins and fool them... Ahem, please ask their youngest brother for help.
Don't say he fooled his friends.
He fooled Ron Weasley. What does it have to do with his beloved friend, the twins?
