19 Crookshanks and Plumb

Dolly did not witness the famous scene where Harry chose his own wand.

Because Ollivander's only serves one person at a time, although Dolly also wants to see the process of Harry choosing a wand, she still has to respect their rules.

Hagrid stood at the door and waited for a while. He seemed to have thought of something and turned and walked towards Eeyore Owl Shop.

Apparently he went to buy a pet for Harry, and Hedwig was Hagrid's gift to Harry.

This got Dolly thinking about whether she should get a pet too.

Hogwarts allows students to have owls, toads, or mice as pets, but this is not required.

The main purpose of keeping a pet is to use it in the Transfiguration class, while the owl is to make it easier for students to send and receive letters themselves.

But if you don't have a pet, Hogwarts will provide the corresponding materials, and you can use the school's public owl.

correct.

Dolly suddenly thought of something and pulled her parents towards the other side of Diagon Alley.

That's where the Fantastic Beasts shop is located.

"Dolly."

Penny was a little uneasy and asked quietly, "Would it be bad if we just walked around on our own?"

Dolly comforted Petunia and said, "Mom, in fact, the combat power of most wizards is not much stronger than that of ordinary people."

"Although every wizard knows magic, most wizards can't even cast common spells smoothly."

"Not to mention magic that harms people. Such magic is generally more difficult."

"Besides, the wizarding world has Aurors and the Ministry of Magic."

"Aurors are the most powerful group of people in the wizarding world. They can teleport at any time to subdue criminals who want to commit crimes."

Petunia's eyes lit up and she said, "Like Professor McGonagall?"

"Yeah, just like the superheroes in comic book movies!"

Dolly's words put Petunia and Vernon at ease, even though Dolly herself didn't believe it.

Aurors are indeed high-level wizards, but compared to the vastness of the wizarding world, the number of Aurors is too small, and they have no time to deal with trivial matters such as street crimes.

The three of them came to the Magical Creatures Shop, pushed the door open, and the bell at the door made a pleasant sound.

As soon as they entered the door, the three people smelled a complex and soft scent.

It's not that bad, but it does make people uncomfortable.

In particular, the entire store was very crowded, with all kinds of cages containing a large number of strange-looking animals.

For example, there are poisonous orange snails, giant turtles with jeweled shells, sleek and clever black mice, ravens, cats of various colors, cattails, deformed rabbits, and so on.

The female clerk immediately saw that the three people were not wizards, so she immediately said, "Hey, gentlemen and ladies."

"Please stand outside the yellow lines and do not try to touch the animals here. Many of them are poisonous and have the ability to permanently harm others."

"If the young lady wishes to choose a pet, there are toads and mice here."

Seeing Dolly's fearful expression because of the toad and the mouse, she immediately added, "A cat is also a good choice, isn't it? For example, this one looks very energetic."

The three of them looked and immediately saw a large ginger cat.

It had a flat face, as if it had rushed headlong into the wall at some point, and a fat tail that blew up like a bottle brush.

All these are the characteristics of Persian longhair cats.

But this cat is not an ordinary Persian long-haired cat.

Persian long-haired cats are gentle in temperament, and adult Persian long-haired cats are even more lazy and inactive.

But after making eye contact with a few people, this Persian long-haired cat began to pace back and forth in the cage anxiously, even looking eager to try.

Obviously, it has a liveliness and activity that the average Persian long-haired cat does not have.

"What's its name?"

"Crookshanks."

The female clerk answered with a smile, confirming Dolly's guess.

This cat will be Hermione's future pet. Originally, Hermione planned to buy it two years later because Crookshanks had been staying in the pet shop and no one bought it, and its situation was very pitiful.

If Dolly buys it now, she can easily establish friendship with Hermione in the name of a pet, right?

As for why we should start preparing now... because that's Hermione!

This is the world of the movie, so Hermione is different from the description in the novel. She is a girl who is pleasing to the eye.

Although Dolly is a girl, the people she likes in her heart are also girls.

This orientation was difficult to express in the previous life, but I can be bolder in this life.

After all, this is the UK, and same-sex love is not a thing in the UK, okay?

Of course, how to turn Hermione gay is also a big problem.

Dolly hasn't thought about this yet, but there's no need to rush.

No matter how old Dolly is mentally, if she wants to do something, she has to wait until the year of the Triwizard Tournament.

"Very good, I've decided to buy it."

Dolly shook her purse arrogantly, and the sound of gold galleons colliding could be heard from inside.

This scene made the clerk smile with joy, and he immediately began to replace Crookshanks's cage with a new one and prepare a full set of equipment and supplies.

This is the pet shop's way of making money, and Dolly sees through it but doesn't say anything.

After all, it's just a matter of a few more gold Galleons. Dolly, who has a huge sum of 200 gold Galleons in her hand, has no need to waste her breath on such things.

But Dolly was still a little dissatisfied with carrying Crookshanks.

She did like cats, but she loved magical creatures even more.

I just wonder if she can keep magical animals as pets now?

The female clerk still saw through Dolly's thoughts and immediately said, "Actually, there are some pets that students like you can keep even without a qualification certificate."

"But you can only raise them in the wizarding world, or at Hogwarts. You can't take them to the Muggle world."

After that, the female clerk recommended two to Dolly.

Cattail and the Transformer Rabbit.

The Shapeshifter is a white rabbit with magical properties that allows it to constantly transform between rabbit form and a silk couture top hat form.

However, it would only change in this way, and Dolly quickly lost interest.

Instead, Dolly felt a little reluctant to let go of Pu Rongrong.

The cat's body is covered with soft, creamy-yellow hair and is spherical in shape.

It doesn't mind being cuddled or tossed around, is very easy to care for, and will eat anything from spiders to leftovers.

But sometimes, a very thin pink tongue would emerge from the middle of its body from time to time, stretching and spitting around the room like a snake, looking for food.

This scene was originally a bit scary, but because Pu Rongrong was only the size of a fist, it looked funny and cute instead.

Even Vernon and Petunia couldn't help but touch it, which shows that this animal is harmless to humans and animals.

"Very good, I want one... no, a whole litter."

20 Wand Heartthrob

"Why do you want so much?"

Vernon was a little surprised, but that was all.

After all, cattails are not expensive and easy to raise, so he wants to raise one.

It’s a pity that I can’t take them home. With so many cute pets accompanying my daughter, she will definitely not be lonely.

"I want to give one to Harry and each of my future classmates."

"Well, that's a good idea. It's a good way to bring everyone closer together."

Vernon encouraged Dolly and then offered to help Dolly carry the basket of Pompom.

Instead, it was snatched away by Penny. In front of these furry little things that made satisfying buzzing sounds, Penny's girlish heart seemed to be aroused.

After buying the pet, Dolly and her parents returned to the door of the wand shop.

Harry happened to push the door open at this time.

Seeing that Dolly and Hagrid had large and small bags in their hands, I was so surprised that I couldn't speak.

"Harry, this is my school admission gift to you. Its name is Hedwig. You can use it to deliver letters and other things in the future."

Hedwig is a snowy owl with many black spots in her snow-white feathers. She is a larger owl.

Harry took it excitedly and asked nervously, "Does it bite?"

Hagrid didn't answer, but Hedwig angrily stretched out her mouth to bite Harry's sleeve.

The owls in the magical world are creatures whose wisdom is awakened by magic. They are not comparable to those wild owls.

"As you can see, the owls here are quite clever," laughed Hagrid.

"If you don't have any friends, you can treat him as a friend... Oh, I mean if, if you don't have any friends."

Hagrid thought he'd said too much. How could Harry not make friends?

After all, Harry is no longer the one who is excluded at home. He should be very popular in Hogwarts, right?

Dolly handed over a cattail, and Harry took it excitedly and asked, "What is this?"

"This little gem is useless except for its looks. When you're bored, just roll it around like a ball. This is also my school admission gift to you."

The surprise on Harry's face suddenly turned into a bit of embarrassment, because he didn't prepare any gifts for Dolly.

Is it too late to prepare now?

"Okay, it's my turn next."

Dolly simply handed Crookshanks in her hand to Harry, which immediately made Harry flustered.

Fortunately, Crookshanks and Hedwig are both descendants of cats and do not conflict with each other, otherwise Harry would definitely be overthrown by these two pets.

Dolly adjusted her breathing and pushed the door open to enter Ollivander's Wand Shop.

Just now, Dolly did a lot of things outside, including fighting wits and courage with fairies and shopping in the magic shop.

But those are things that tourists can do. If you want to truly become a wizard, you must have your own wand.

Ollivander had just finished choosing Harry's wand and was still cleaning up the mess.

When I heard the doorbell ring, I turned around with a smile on my face.

"Hello, Miss Dolly Dursley."

Dolly replied with a hint of surprise: "You know my name? I'm not a savior, I'm just a Muggle."

"But you have a younger brother who is a savior. He told me about you. You are an impressive and good kid."

Dolly smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa Ollivander."

Ollivander smiled even more happily. Just because Dolly called her "Grandpa", she wanted to find a wand that was most suitable for Dolly.

"Come on, hold out your arm so I can measure it."

Soon, Ollivander gave Dolly a full set of tests.

This is not actually a necessary process. With Ollivander's vision, this process can be skipped.

But this was Dolly, and he decided to treat her with the same seriousness he had shown towards Harry.

"Well, a very coordinated body, but I recently had a serious illness, so I'm not very suitable for a strong and explosive wand."

"Here, try this one."

"It's made of alder wood, with a unicorn tail as the core."
