"Make a friend, my name is Hermione Granger!"

Hermione took the initiative to extend her right hand to Jerry. She felt that the little boy in front of her was different from other classmates she had met before, and he seemed to get along well with her.

"Jerry Kamen!"

When Jerry heard Hermione's introduction, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and stretched out his hand to shake her hand.

"Jerry, I'm going to buy textbooks. I'll see you when school starts!"

Hermione returned to her parents, waved to Jerry, and left Madam Malkin's robe shop.

"See you at the beginning of school!"

When Hermione and her family left completely, Jerry's face immediately showed a puzzled expression.

Does Hermione have big front teeth and thick curly brown hair?

This seemed to be a little different from the image in the movies he had seen. He remembered that the Hermione in the movie had no front teeth and was very beautiful.

But speaking of it, the little girl he met just now would be very beautiful if she could take care of her hair and straighten her front teeth.

After all, the little girl has big eyes and her facial features are actually very straight, but she doesn't know how to dress up and her front teeth spoil her image a bit.

"It's ready, dear."

Ten minutes later, the pudgy Mrs. Malkin also came to Jerry's side carrying a bag containing Hogwarts uniforms.

"OK, thanks!"

Jerry paid the fee, put the clothes in his suitcase, pulled the trolley and pushed the door open and walked out of Madam Malkin's robe store.

"Professor McGonagall!"

As soon as Jerry went out, he saw Professor McGonagall walking towards him carrying a bag of magic books, and he waved quickly.

"Okay, now all that's left is pets and wands. Ollivander's Wand Shop is at the end of Diagon Alley, so let's go to the Magic Zoo first!"

Putting the magic book into the suitcase, Professor McGonagall pulled Jerry and the cart and continued walking along the streets of Diagon Alley.

When passing by Florin's cold drink shop, I bought Jerry a Baiwei ice cream (an ice cream that can taste a hundred different flavors).

"That's Gringotts Bank, a wizarding bank run by goblins. If you need to store valuables in the future, you can go to this bank. It's very safe. Well, probably!"

Professor McGonagall saw Jerry focusing on the tall white building on the right and patiently explained to him.

But halfway through the explanation, she suddenly remembered the theft of Gringotts yesterday, and her tone was no longer so sure.

Jerry nodded to show his understanding.

In fact, he was not looking at the bank just now, he was just looking at the two goblins standing guard at the door of the bank, and lamented that the goblins in this world are really ugly.

"By the way, Mr. Carmen, I want to warn you seriously. If you come to Diagon Alley alone in the future, please remember not to go to that alley!"

At this moment, Professor McGonagall suddenly looked serious and pointed to a narrow, dark alley opposite Gringotts.

"That is?"

Jerry's mind moved and he already had a guess.

Professor McGonagall replied with a straight face:

"That's Knockturn Alley. Just know that it's a very dangerous alley for you!"

"Okay, I remember it!"

Jerry nodded seriously.

In his opinion, Professor McGonagall may be the kind of person who is sharp-tongued and heart-warming. Although he has a serious face most of the time, he is not inferior to those in Hogwarts in terms of caring for the little wizard.

Any professor.

Seeing that Jerry was so sensible, Professor McGonagall's expression relaxed slightly, and she continued walking towards the magical zoo ahead with him.

...

The Magical Zoo is located between the Jumping Magic Joke Shop and Gringotts. The store is not big, but there are many kinds of pets inside.

As soon as Jerry entered the store, he saw densely packed iron cages hanging on the entire wall.

There are big purple toads that are gorging on dead blowflies, a terrifyingly large tortoise with a shell on its back that shines like a gem, a white rabbit that can turn into a satin top hat at any time, and a variety of other things.

Color cats, mice and raven etc.

"Professor McGonagall, you are here, do you need anything?"

A young witch wearing thick black glasses saw Professor McGonagall at the door and immediately came forward with a respectful tone.

"Pafula, I'm bringing the first-year students here to buy a pet for school."

A smile appeared on Professor McGonagall's face.

"How's it going? Is work going well?"

"Very good, the boss treats me well. I can give you a 20% discount on whatever pet the little guy likes!"

The young witch held her eyes, lowered her head and asked Jerry with a smile.

"Ma'am, I want a cat!"

Jerry scanned the entire store and quickly found his target.

"What do you think of this gray short-haired cat? It is very docile and very suitable to be kept as a pet!"

Upon hearing this, the young witch immediately picked out the most beautiful British shorthair and placed it in front of Jerry.

Jerry took one look and shook his head, then pointed at the big-faced yellow cat lying on the cage at the top of the wall and said:

"I like that type of cat!"

He remembered that Hermione's cat seemed to be a yellow long-haired cat, and the one that met the requirements in the entire store was the one he was pointing to.

"Crookshanks?"

The young witch had a surprised look on her face.

Because of Crookshanks' appearance, no one wanted to take Crookshanks in the store for several years. She didn't expect Jerry to fall in love with him at first sight.

"Yes, I think it's very cute and cute. I love it very much!"

Jerry opened his eyes and replied nonsense.

"That's great. I've been worried that it can't find a good owner. I hope you can take good care of it in the future!"

Pavel was once a student of Hufflepuff at Hogwarts. Because she loved magical animals, she worked as a clerk in the Magical Beasts Shop in Diagon Alley after graduation.

She was happy that Crookshanks was bought by Jerry not because it was another business, but because Crookshanks found an owner who liked it.

"I will try my best to take good care of it, even though it is my first time to have a pet!"

There was a hint of sincerity in Jerry's tone.

...

After leaving the Magic Zoo, Jerry held Crookshanks snoring in his arms and followed Professor McGonagall to the last shop at the end of Diagon Alley.

That is Ollivander's Wand Shop, which has been specialized in making wands for thousands of years.

The process of selecting a wand is the same as in the movie, where the boss holds a tape measure to him and then starts trying out the wand.

There was nothing unusual about the process. It was just like an ordinary little wizard. After all, what he had exchanged was the normal wizard bloodline.

After trying two or three wands, Jerry quickly found one that worked better.

"Alder wood, the heart nerve of the fire dragon, eleven inches long. It seems you must be a helpful little wizard!"

Looking at the wand waving in Jerry's hand, Ollivander smiled and explained:

"Alder is a hard wood, but I have found that its ideal owners are neither stubborn nor stubborn, but wizards who are helpful, considerate and lovable."

"Are you helpful?"

After hearing Ollivander's explanation, Jerry looked at the wand in his hand with a strange expression on his face.
