Hogwarts: Who taught you to transform like this?

""Squeak."

The door of the bookstore opened.

"Mrs. Blotts."

Accompanied by a rough voice and a shadow like a hill covering the ground.

The two people I just saw appeared again, and Hagrid squeezed through the door with a loud voice.

"I brought Harry Potter to buy his school textbooks as instructed by Professor Dumbledore."

"Harry Potter! It's just like the rumors said.

Mrs. Blotz was a little surprised and tilted her head to try to see the scar on his forehead.

Harry Potter was no longer surprised. Since entering the wizarding world, too many people have done the same thing.

""Mrs. Blotz, hello."

He greeted in a reserved manner.

His eyes swept across the room full of magic books, full of expectation and confusion.

"Hagrid, there are so many books, how can I find what I need?"

"Let me see……"

Hagrid twisted his body, then fell into a daze

"Sorry, Harry, the place has changed so much that I can't quite remember it. Books used to be piled on the floor."

"Come, try this. Write the book you want on it and you will find it."

Mo Lin couldn't help but sigh at the power of fate when he saw the two of them.

In just a few minutes, he met the savior twice.

But it was just right, let him try this improved book-finding device of Flourish and Blotts Bookstore.

"Thank you, my name is Harry Potter, what's yours?"

"Merlin Handel."

Harry smiled and thanked him, and after they exchanged names, he spoke in a low voice.

"I recognize you, you were buying ice cream just now. But I didn't mean to stare at you, you are just really good-looking"

"Thank you."

Mo Lin was a little helpless.

Everyone who saw him would use his appearance to introduce the topic.

Even young Harry is no exception. No wonder there are so many Nantongs with Ying. This is the national situation.

"Merlin, you must be from a wizard family, right?" Harry asked

"No, I come from the Muggle world and grew up in an orphanage.

"Feel sorry"

"It's okay, there's nothing to apologize for. I don't think it's that bad anyway. It's good to be alone."

"But no family……"

Harry wanted to say something, but when he thought about how his life was not much better than that of an orphan, he didn't know how to start.

"You should find a book first. If you don’t find a book, there will be a lot of people later."

Mo Lin couldn’t bear it anymore and pointed at the little wizards rushing outside.

"You're right, I'll look for it now."

Harry hurriedly grabbed the quill and began to write the title.

As the title appeared, a long string of words appeared on the parchment.

【Teaching Materials Area - Spells Teaching Materials - Third Floor - Middle】

"It's so convenient!"

Harry followed the instructions and looked for it, his eyes full of shock.

He had never seen such a convenient book-finding system in Muggle bookstores.

Hagrid scratched his head and lamented that he hadn't been to the bookstore for only a year, why it had changed so much.

Other customers also lamented that it was more convenient than before, at least they didn't have to use the Summoning Charm when they couldn't find a book.

Someone had used the Summoning Charm to pull a book from the bottom of the pile, and the pile collapsed, causing a little wizard to break his bone.

Mrs. Blotts smiled sweetly and looked at Merlin.

"This is all thanks to Mr. Molin, his idea is really great!"

"What a thoughtful little wizard."

"Praise Merlin! Mr. Merlin, believe me, you will definitely be a qualified Ravenclaw."

The crowd praised Merlin's proposal. Merlin's mouth twitched.

He was assigned to the Lion House and the Eagle House before he even entered the school. The Sorting Hat will probably have to struggle for a long time.

But he really didn't seem to decide which house he wanted to go to.

The Lion House has the bonus of the original book, but the bonus of Magical Beasts to Badger House is also not small.

His idea of changing the world is more suitable for Slytherin.

These three are all good, except Ravenclaw.

The only impression of Eagle House in Merlin is that the juniors and classmates are pretty, but they can just date, and they don't have to join the house.

After thinking for a while without any clue, Merlin simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, he will know which house he wants to go to when the time comes for sorting.

Harry also bought his textbooks at this time.

The three left the bookstore together.

On the way, Hagrid curiously asked Merlin how he had so much money.

Merlin told him the truth about his experience in the past two days

"Merlin's beard."

Hagrid couldn't help but stop and exclaimed

"You are so lucky to be able to refine the metal that even Dumbledore is interested in!"

"But the professor definitely didn't ask me to get it from Gringotts... Oh, damn, I shouldn't have said that. Come on, let's go and choose a pet!"

Hagrid knew he had said something wrong, so he quickly changed his words and took the two of them to the Magic Pet Shop.

"Hagrid, you just mentioned Gringotts, is it related to today's theft news?"

Merlin asked deliberately

""Shh!"

Hagrid hurriedly stopped Merlin:"Let's not discuss this, okay? Dumbledore forbids me to tell others."

""Okay."

Merlin held his forehead helplessly.

As expected, just as the rumors said, you can trust Hagrid's loyalty, but you can't expect him to keep it a secret.

Such a casual chat revealed the news of the Philosopher's Stone, no wonder Quirrell was able to...

Hiss, that's not right!

Merlin suddenly thought of something.

With Dumbledore's ability, it is impossible for him not to think that Hagrid had this problem, but he still let Hagrid take charge of this matter and even let him arrange one of the levels.

Could it be that Dumbledore knew about Quirrell's abnormality from the beginning, and wanted to use Hagrid's mouth to leak the news to set a trap for Quirrell? He laid out the plan before school started. This is too old a fox.

Dumbledore obviously has countless ways to retrieve the Philosopher's Stone, but he has to do it by the way when he picks Harry up to school. This is obviously unreasonable.

Only a child like Harry and the rough-minded Hagrid didn't think of it.

Thinking about it this way... Dumbledore's calculations are really loud.

The more Merlin thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct.

It seems that I still have to pay attention in the future, so as not to become a part of his plan unknowingly.

……

Magical Animals Shop.

As soon as he pushed the door open, Merlin could smell something far more exotic than an ordinary pet shop.

Orange snails, turtles with gemstones on their shells, ravens, cattails, and shapeshifting rabbits were all moving around in their respective living areas.

Harry stared at them with his eyes wide open, and kept screaming like Umbilly Wobble.

"Wow, this owl can dance"

"And this cat’s eyes can actually change color!"

"Molin, look at these animals, they are so amazing!"

"Indeed, otherwise they are not magical animals."

Merlin nodded indifferently in response.

To be honest, he had experienced the world of hunters and did not have much interest in these pets in the magic world, and Hogwarts had restrictions.

Look at the pets that first-year students can bring listed in the notice.

Cats, owls, and toads.

Except for owls that can be used to send letters, the other two are too ordinary.

If he wants to raise a pet, he must raise a unique pet.

He came here with Harry just to test whether language proficiency is useful for these magical animals.

But now, there are constant sounds of cooing, quacking, and meowing.

Merlin listened carefully to the calls, trying to distinguish their voices.

In an instant, a large amount of knowledge appeared in his mind.

He held his forehead and realized after a while that this was the language knowledge of these magical animals.

Listening to the sound again, it has become different

"Today's owl snacks are definitely leftover from yesterday, they are so soggy"

"No, it was today, but he fell into the toad tank when he was adding the treats, I saw it with my own eyes. I really hope they can get a new cat climbing frame, the current one is rotten"

"There are so many people, the water is hot, I can't sleep, it's so annoying"

"The tortoise shell is beautiful, I love it, sassy!"

……

Okay.

So this is the ability to be proficient in languages.

My eyes are opened.

Merlin looked around and identified the pets that complained about these things, which made him more determined not to buy them.

People who are chatterboxes can be separated sometimes.

But it’s scary to think about the chatterbox pets around you.

Merlin tried to stop distinguishing the words of these pets.

With a thought.

The calls of these magical animals returned to normal.

Merlin quickly mastered this function and was able to filter out ordinary chats and only listen to the important information.

Harry, on the other hand, was staring at the pets in the store.

"Here, Harry, this is your present."

While the two were watching, Hagrid had already come over with an owl and handed it to Harry.

He looked at Merlin with a bit of embarrassment.

"Sorry, Molin, I didn't know what you liked, so I didn't buy it.……"

Mo Lin naturally would not expose his words.

He smiled and waved his hand.

"It's ok. I don't like these magical animals. They are too small. I like big, mighty and majestic ones."

""Yes, yes, yes!"

Hagrid nodded vigorously, and then asked Merlin what magical creatures he liked.

"Um……"

Merlin was still thinking about what to say when Hagrid slapped his forehead.

"Sorry, Merlin, I forgot that you are also a little wizard from the Muggle world, and you may not know what large magical animals are.……"

"Zouwu, Qilin, Phoenix, or red-eyed eagle lizard if that doesn't work."

Before Hagrid finished speaking, Merlin said several names.

The next second, Hagrid's eyes were as bright as copper bells.

"Oh! Merlin's beard, how do you know these names?"

"I just bought Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them yesterday.》"

"It's incredible that you actually like these animals. Even little wizards from wizarding families may not be able to accept these magical animals."

Hagrid laughed, his beard and hair shaking.

"When school starts, I will show you this animal."

""Okay." Merlin replied.

He knew that Hagrid would be able to get a dragon egg soon. It would depend on whether he could find a way to keep it.

Merlin originally wanted to buy an owl to deliver mail, but when he thought about his next step of transforming the wizarding world, he felt that it was unnecessary.

With the new invention, the history of the wizarding world still using owls to deliver mail should come to an end.
