The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Dumbledore showed a slightly childish smile: "Honeydukes has new products on the market today, so I came over to buy some. What about you? Girod, why did you think of coming to Hogsmeade?"

Tom scratched his head, "I also came to Honeydukes to buy candies. I lost a bet before."

"Great, it seems you have realized the beauty of candy." Dumbledore stroked his beard and calmly pushed Snape aside, "Let me take you for a walk. Well, I can also recommend some new desserts to you..."

Snape saw this and stayed away from the two men. His appearance here today was just an excuse to get potion materials. The main purpose was to monitor this strange Lockhart and see what he wanted to do in school. But since Dumbledore was willing to accompany him, there was no need for him to interfere.

He strode towards the post office in Hogsmeade.

Tom is "coerced" by Dumbledore to go to Honeydukes. The moment he saw Dumbledore, he also understood his and Snape's intentions. However, he had already expected this. As the saying goes, "unexpected but reasonable."

But there is a very serious problem.

Dumbledore has his own spotlight effect. When he and Dumbledore walked on the street, they attracted almost everyone's attention.

"Professor, isn't this too high-profile..." Tom was not used to the feeling of being watched wherever he went. Maybe Lockhart would like it, but he was very disgusted with it. With so many people watching, it was inconvenient to hold my nose open.

"High-profile?" Dumbledore was a little confused and glanced at his robe, "I'm wearing very simple clothes today."

Indeed, Dumbledore only wore a blue wizard robe today, with only a few small yellow stars on the corners. This robe was very simple. But the person wearing it was Dumbledore! Dumbledore can attract everyone's attention even if he only wears a plain wizard robe.

"No, Professor..." Tom didn't know how to describe it to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore smiled and said, "But don't you enjoy the way other people look at you the most?"

Tom:_(:з　∠)_

The mute turned into a teapot and cooked dumplings stuffed with coptis in his belly. He couldn't help but feel the pain!

"Yes, but no, I don't just enjoy other people's eyes. I..." As he tried to organize his words, Tom had already thought of a perfect excuse, but this excuse was too shameless.

Dumbledore looked like he understood, "Yes! People are looking at me, so they will naturally be indifferent to you! There is no other way, let's go to Honeydukes first, those new candies can only make Dumbledore leads away. By the way, Girod, where do you want to go next?"

Tom: I have obviously activated Occlumency, but principal, can you still see my inner thoughts!

"I read in the book that in 1612, a goblin rebellion broke out near the school. At that time, the wizards used a bar in Hogsmeade village as their headquarters. I kind of want to visit this bar. If If it still exists."

Dumbledore: ...

Tom:?

Dumbledore dusted off the non-existent dust on his body and told Tom that the bar was now called the "Pig's Head Bar". He said to Tom: "The guests of the Pig's Head Bar will hide their true identity. If I assume the identity of Dumbledore, If I go there, I won’t be welcome, and the bartender might kick me out.”

"No, not really." Tom smiled, and then chatted casually with Dumbledore.

The two entered Hogsmeade in this atmosphere.

[Task: Wandering in the world. Goal: Explore the magical world

Five stages of progress: 1/16 Hogsmeade map unlocked]

Until now, Tom has truly stepped into the land of Hogsmeade.

Dumbledore led Tom to the Honeydukes store quickly. They arrived relatively early today, and there were not many people in the store yet. Dumbledore took the lead and pushed in the door.

The shelves in the store are filled with all kinds of candies: creamy yellow marzipan, pink sparkling coconut-flavored sorbet, honey-colored greasy toffee, hundreds of kinds of chocolate, placed on a huge oak Bucket of Bibi's Beans and Sizzling Bees - a sorbet ball that you suck on to make yourself levitate.

In addition, there are also Chuibao Super Bubble Gum that fills the room with bubbles that last for days, Pepper Urchin that allows the eater to breathe fire, ice mice that move, and mint ice cream that is shaped like a toad and can jump. Feather-shaped brittle candies, filled gummy candies that explode when you bite them...

This is what the fairy tale world in a child's mind looks like. Of course, some candies are a bit heavy-tasting, such as those toad-series candies and cockroach-series candies.

Tom stared and paused every step. By the time he reached the counter, his hands were already full.

Dumbledore was standing in front of the counter when a broad, bald man ran over quickly. He is Ambrosius Froome, the owner of this store. Looking at his bald head, Tom didn't expect that even magic couldn't cure baldness.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, I didn't expect you to come so early today." He bowed to Dumbledore, and then looked at Tom, "Mr. Lockhart, your arrival has made this store shine." Then he took out a large box from the counter.

"These are the candies you ordered, Mr. Dumbledore," he opened the box, revealing dozens of candies, but there were a few candies inside that were very eye-catching.

Tom thought in his mind: "Oh shit": There was a palm-sized unicorn in the middle of the box, glowing blue.

"What's this?"

"Violet rhinoceros, a rhinoceros made of milk chocolate, with violet petals added and violet nectar in the filling." Ambrosio Frum enthusiastically introduced to Tom this latest research and development that takes seven years. It takes a pike to buy a piece of candy.

Tom looked at the chocolate unicorn that was tied up like a hairy crab, and he couldn't help but have a terrible thought: This thing can't fly, can it? !

He asked about it and found out that it really could fly! Even the wings are made extremely realistic, and it is said that if you bite them, honey will burst out.

Tom looked at Dumbledore, who was looking forward to him, and suddenly felt that it was not surprising that this guy would do such a thing. He even liked cockroaches! Those are candies that look very similar to cockroaches. Tom thinks anyone who can eat this kind of candy is a ruthless person.

Seeing Dumbledore take out his wallet and buy this large box of customized candies, Tom made up his mind not to inquire about what Dumbledore bought.
