Returning to the Leaky Cauldron once more.
Pushing open the door, it was still a dim environment with noisy sounds, everything was exactly the same as when they had come last time, Yang Tao felt that even the 'NPCs' sitting at the tables hadn't changed at all.
Hmm... it's also possible that the people drinking at the Leaky Cauldron were so disheveled that he couldn't tell them apart.
Harry took out the envelope containing the Hogwarts acceptance letter; 'Mr. Harry Potter' was written on the pure white envelope.
There was no information about Harry's address on it; clearly, Harry wasn't in this world when the letter was written.
He tore open the wax seal on the back of the envelope.
"Dear Mr. Potter: We are pleased to inform you..."
Harry softly read out the contents of the envelope, and Yang Tao looked at Harry with a smile and said, "We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. A list of necessary books and equipment is enclosed. Term begins on September 1st..."
Yang Tao read out the contents of the envelope word for word.
Harry looked up and asked in surprise, "Mr. Yang Tao, did you also study at Hogwarts?"
"No, I'm a Muggle; Hogwarts didn't fancy me and never sent me a letter."
Yang Tao made a casual joke, and as they spoke, they had already walked into the pub's backyard. Looking at the mottled wall, he said to Harry, "you stand back a bit, I'm going to test something."
He took out a Lever from his backpack, from Minecraft, and placed it on the side of the wall.
The Lever unnaturally stuck to the wall and looked very stable.
He pulled down the rectangular Lever with force.
The wall in front of Yang Tao immediately made a sound; the bricks rapidly rotated to both sides, revealing the bustling Diagon Alley.
"I never thought a Lever could even open a magic door..."
Although this 'door' looked like a wall, it was actually still a 'door', a rather special one.
Yang Tao pondered for a moment and then knocked the Lever down; after all, it wasn't good to leave the door open all the time.
Because Hogwarts was about to start, there were many more children in Diagon Alley, and new information kept popping up in the bottom left corner of Yang Tao's vision.
[Exploration Progress 18.44%]
[Exploration Progress 19.12%]
[Exploration Progress 20.322%]
...
Although slow, it was rising steadily.
'Heh heh, came to the right place...'
The story scope of the Harry Potter world isn't very large; Hogwarts alone can account for 65% of the plot value, and the rest is our most diligent Dark Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters.
'I wonder what mod I'll get this time... hopefully Witchcraft...'
The Witchcraft mod has an extremely low lower limit, but its upper limit is extremely high, especially in this real world.
"Sir, where are we going?"
"You already have a wand, so let's go to Flourish and Blotts first."
The Flourish and Blotts shop wasn't large; he and Harry had already been there once. Through the bright display window, they could see it was packed with customers.
"Too many people..."
Harry looked at the situation inside the shop, somewhat worried that if his physique entered, he might get squeezed mid-air and be unable to get down.
"It's fine, we're not in a hurry..."
Just then, Yang Tao suddenly saw a petite figure standing near the display window in the bookstore.
She was seriously flipping through the book in her hand, completely unaffected by the chaotic environment around her.
The sunlight scattered on her thick, fluffy brown hair and side profile made her look somewhat radiant. Yang Tao really wanted to capture this scene with a camera.
"To actually meet little Hermione..."
"Who?"
Harry followed Yang Tao's gaze towards the little girl inside the display window.
"Hermione Granger, she'll be your classmate later."
Hermione, the top student, was a worthy investment. Not to mention her future achievements, just her willingness to learn was valuable.
However, after looking at the Flourish and Blotts, which looked like a sardine can, Yang Tao figured it was better to come back another time.
"Harry, stop looking at her. Let's go buy cauldrons and dragonhide gloves first. Oh, and buy some more wizard robes..."
Yang Tao and Harry left.
Suddenly, a group of children caught his attention, or rather, the shop in front of the children caught his attention.
[Quality Quidditch Supplies Shop]
'Can I ride a magic broom without magic?'
"Wow, Nimbus Two Thousand!!"
"I've always wanted my own flying broom, but my dad said I could only ride one after I turn 12."
"This is the fastest flying broom in the world..."
A group of children peered through the display window, looking at the magnificent flying broom inside, discussing it animatedly, their faces and eyes filled with longing.
"Come on, let's go inside and take a look."
Harry looked up at the shop's name and asked, "What is Quidditch?"
"Quidditch is a sport in the wizarding world. You can think of it as a sport like basketball, soccer, or rugby."
"Quidditch is extremely popular in the wizarding world, second only to Gwent!"
When Yang Tao used to watch Harry Potter, he always felt that the fanatical wizards watching Quidditch matches reminded him of the card players in The Witcher 3.
[Villager A: "Geralt! My daughter has been kidnapped by bandits! Please go save her!" Geralt: "How about a round of Gwent?" Villager A: "No one in the village has ever beaten me."]
Compared to the crowded Flourish and Blotts, there were very few people inside the Quality Quidditch Supplies shop.
Yang Tao looked at the various models of flying brooms displayed on the shelves, and soon a woman in her forties walked up and asked with a smile:
"Sir, do you have a preferred flying broom model?"
When Yang Tao heard her words, he inexplicably felt like he was buying a car at a 4S dealership.
"Give me a Nimbus Two Thousand first."
"Also, I'd like to ask if Muggles can use a flying broom."
The woman probably hadn't seen such a generous customer; she hadn't even introduced it yet, and Yang Tao had already ordered a Nimbus Two Thousand.
"Customer, I'm sorry, a flying broom model that Muggles can use has not yet been developed. The user must use their mind and magic to adjust and control the flying broom."
"Even with a wizard's assistance, a Muggle sitting on it would only be shot out like an arrow and wouldn't be able to stop themselves at all..."
Hearing the woman's explanation, Yang Tao's recently heated heart plunged directly into an ice cellar.
"Alright then, please get me a new Nimbus Two Thousand."
What a broken wizarding world, they don't even have an automatic magic broom.
In reality, wizards don't consider Muggles' feelings at all; they make magic brooms to serve wizards.
