"This is called Bibi Multi-Flavor Beans." Li Jordan shook his box and handed it to the three people, saying, "It has all kinds of flavors. Try it."

"You better be careful with this," George warned. "When he says multi-flavored, you know, he means all kinds of flavors."

"Not only does it have the usual flavors of chocolate, mints, and marmalade, but it also has flavors of spinach, liver, and tripe. Oh, and be careful of the taste of earwax." Fred reached out and grabbed one and threw it into his mouth, "This one is pumpkin flavored."

"What flavor is this?" Albert asked as he picked up a gray bean.

"It's pepper flavored. If I were you, I wouldn't touch it." George kindly reminded, "Mine tastes like chicken."

"What about this?" Albert said, picking up something that looked like bubble gum.

"This is Super Bubble Gum."

"I know this, Chocolate Frog. I ate it last time too." Albert pointed at the Chocolate Frog.

"Pumpkin pie, pot cake, licorice wand." George began to explain other strange foods, some of which would change the color of the tongue after eating, and some of which would make various sounds after eating.

"Animal voice-changing candies can make various animal sounds."

Albert opened them, took one out and asked, "What's that sound?"

"have no idea."

"How long will it last?"

"About a few seconds!"

Albert threw the candy into his mouth and suddenly let out a lion-like roar. Everyone else couldn't help laughing.

"Try?"

The one George ate was a baboon, the one Fred ate was a cat, and Lee Jordan was unlucky because he ate an elephant. His cheeks turned red and two streams of smoke came out of his ears, causing everyone to laugh.

"Oh, I bought too little." Albert thought this candy was very interesting, so he went to another workshop to find the witch and bought another one.

"I bought it for my sister." Albert noticed the puzzled looks from others and explained with a smile.

Of course, Albert had no intention of eating these things to fill his stomach. He took out the sandwich that Daisy had prepared for him and started eating it under everyone's puzzled gazes.

"You brought food too, why did you buy so much?" Li Jordan was puzzled.

"Because it's novel. If I come across something interesting, I'll send a copy back to my family." Albert picked up a bottle of peach-flavored soda and asked, "Do you want to try it?"

"What's this?"

"Drinks, you may not have tried them." Albert bought a glass of pumpkin juice. The taste was a bit special, similar to soy milk.

"How do you open it?" The twins looked at the can of soda curiously.

"There's a pull ring on it, don't shake it, or the drink inside will spray out." Albert reminded, but it was too late. When Fred pulled the pull ring to open the soda, he was sprayed in the face.

"I warned you not to shake it." Albert couldn't help laughing and took the can of peach-flavored soda from the other person's hand, leaving only half of it.

He pulled out his wand, cleaned up the water stains on the table and newspaper, and asked, "Do you want to try the flavor?"

As he spoke, he raised his wand and tapped the candy bag on the table, turning it into a plastic cup.

"Wow!" The twins suddenly made an exaggerated sound.

"What's wrong?" Albert looked at them in confusion and said again: "Copy in pairs."

He used a duplication spell to turn the plastic cup into three.

"You just used magic, didn't you?"

"Oh, the little tricks I learned from the spell book are very useful." Albert said lightly, "Any questions?"

"Any questions?" Li Jordan said weakly, "Of course, I remember you are a wizard from Muggle."

"And then?" Albert asked, raising his eyebrows.

"I dare say that there is absolutely no freshman who can use magic as skillfully as you."

"Aren't you guys exaggerating too much?" Albert changed the subject and asked, "Would you like to drink?" He poured half a cup for each of the three people.

“It tastes a bit strange, but not unpalatable.”

“It feels a bit like beer, but different.”

"Have you ever drunk beer?" Albert asked curiously.

"George drank it secretly."

"You drank secretly before."

"After all, you are not Muggles. It's normal that you are not used to the drink." It was not difficult for Albert to understand, just like he himself drank pumpkin juice.

"That's not the point. How did you do it? I heard that transfiguration is extremely difficult to learn." Li Jordan said exaggeratedly.

"Super difficult?" Albert thought about it carefully. It seemed that it was not as difficult as the other party said. He asked Truman about the trick of turning a match into a needle. After practicing for a week and maxing out the first level of Transfiguration, he could easily transform small objects.

“It’s a bit difficult indeed. It took me half a day to turn a matchstick into a needle, but it’s pretty easy once I get used to it.”

"Half a day." The three of them looked at each other, and suddenly felt a little autistic and didn't want to talk to each other.

You will lose friends if you act like a cool guy.

“Is it really that simple?”

"Well, how much magic do you know?" George asked weakly.

"I've tried everything in the textbooks... Didn't you try magic during the summer vacation?" Albert looked at them suspiciously.

"My family won't let us touch wands."

"You can try it secretly, and you have already bought a magic wand, right?" Albert was speechless.

"Did you succeed?" Fred asked weakly.

"Most of it was successful. During the summer vacation, I also got to know a student from Hogwarts. We kept in touch through letters, and he taught me a lot about magic..."

Boom! A loud thunder struck from the sky, interrupting Albert's words. The rain outside the carriage was getting heavier.

Even God can’t stand this

Li Qiaodan got up and closed the window to prevent rain from coming in.

"I hope the rain will stop by the time we get to school." Albert threw a piece of chocolate into his mouth and chewed it slowly.

The long journey on the train was really a bit boring.

"What's wrong with you?" Albert asked the three silent people in confusion.

"Nothing!" Fred managed to say, "I always think you will become a great guy in the future."

"I think so too." Albert said suddenly, and these words choked the three of them.

"Haha, just kidding. No one knows what the future will be like."

For the following time, they all ate snacks and talked about things in the magical world. Most of the time, the three of them did the talking while Albert listened.

When talking about Quidditch, Albert found it very interesting to listen to the three people trying their best to explain how a game can be played with four balls and seven players.

It can be seen that both twins want to have a good flying broom and have a wonderful race.

"I would like to try the feeling of flying in the sky," said Albert, "although riding a broom is a bit weird."
