This year's summer seems to have come to an end all of a sudden, with autumn leaves falling all over Diagon Alley. Compared with more than 20 years ago, the changes in Diagon Alley are not obvious. In the eyes of ordinary people outside, the past 20 years may be a period of innovation and change, but in the eyes of wizards, more than 20 years have changed. It's not a very long time.

Number 93, Diagon Alley.

Logically speaking, stores in the wizarding world usually need to accumulate word-of-mouth over many years before they can survive in a wizarding shopping mall like Diagon Alley. However, this store No. 93 only took twenty years to develop. Achieved the customer flow that many stores could not achieve in their lifetime.

In the display window on the left side of the store, there are all kinds of rotating, twitching, flashing, jumping and screaming products, which are colorful and gorgeous; on the right side, there is a huge poster covered with " It is an autographed portrait of one of the most popular international stars in recent years, Gilderoy Lockhart.

Above the store entrance, a series of dazzling yellow letters shine: Weasley's Wizard Wheezes.

The store was full of customers, and most of them couldn't even squeeze to the front of the shelves to see the new magic products up close. They could only glance at them from a distance through their dark heads. Various cardboard boxes filled with goods were stacked from the floor to the ceiling, containing all kinds of novel and interesting magic products.

Among them are the quick-acting truant candies that have been very popular among Hogwarts students in recent years: coma candy, fever candy, nosebleed nougat, vomiting tablets, fat tongue toffee...

These are all products that have been strictly prohibited by professors from being brought into schools. However, the professors’ ban did not prevent these products from being introduced into schools. On the contrary, they even slowly opened up foreign markets through the reputation of Hogwarts. It is popular in many other European countries, such as Beauxbatons, where students come to buy. Some smart people even become second-hand dealers. After buying things at Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes, they go abroad to sell them at high prices.

On the shelves, there are other products, such as flying skateboards that have similar functions to broomsticks, animal cookies that can transform people, dream glasses that can watch other people's dreams, various transformation hats, and replacement hats. Fluorescent lamps, sound candies that imitate other people’s voices…

"Every time I see a scene like this, I feel like I'm in a dream."

"Fred, please don't say this again every year when school is about to start, okay? In my mind, this is the fifty-third time you have said this."

"Did you say that much? Are you lying to me, George?" Fred touched his head, but to be honest, the magenta robe didn't match his hair and was too dazzling.

"Of course not." George, who was wearing a dark blue robe, dusted his spacious cuffs a few times. Although he was a twin, his personality was calmer than Fred's.

"Oh, I must be getting old." Fred sighed with a miserable expression.

"If you get older, you will definitely grow a long white beard, just like what we looked like after drinking the age-enhancing potion in the Goblet of Fire in fifth grade." George recalled.

"Same for you." Fred smiled and put his arm on George's shoulder.

"Every year at this time, a large number of children will flock to Diagon Alley, because school is about to start at this time." George pointed to the young customers who were still walking in, "I don't know that James When will Albus and I come? I have already prepared gifts for them. Lily, a girl, won’t want them. I am going to give her a few velvet velvets. Little girls like those ones, and they have fur. little things."

"I thought you would mention Ron and Lavender's two children first!" Fred smiled. "If Rose and Hugo knew that their uncle was so partial, they would be so sad that they would cry. ”

"They won't know who I am anyway, right?" George chuckled, "I'll just say I'm Uncle Fred then."

Fred was suddenly silent for a moment and sighed: "Oh, it would be great if Wright and Chang Chu's children were here too."

"That guy Wright hasn't been back for a long time." George bumped Fred's arm with his elbow. "That guy refused to let his child grow up in the UK. He said he couldn't let our food contaminate his child's health. Taste buds, the result is more than ten years old.”

"Wright, what a legend!" Fred praised, "His choice is actually a good one. Look at our 'munitions' products, you can't even imagine that many people in the Ministry of Magic don't even know how to use the Iron Armor Curse. No matter how you use it, it would be wiser to stay away from monsters like Wright."

"After all, who could dare to fight against Voldemort in the fifth grade like him?" George said, "and also be the main force."

By now, the mysterious man Voldemort has completely disappeared, and most wizards no longer adhere to the name of the mysterious man, and have begun to call him by his original name.

George added: "After the Triwizard Tournament ended, everyone thought he suddenly disappeared, but unexpectedly he went to trouble Voldemort and brought Pettigrew and -"

"And the news of Voldemort's complete death." Fred added, "Everyone didn't believe it at first, but then the announcement issued by the Ministry of Magic let us know that on the night of the end of the Triwizard Tournament, Voldemort used Haha Leigh's blood resurrected him, and as soon as he was resurrected, he was taken care of by Wright, Dumbledore and people from the Order of the Phoenix, as well as a large group of people from the Ministry of Magic who were there to take care of him. "

"It was also because of that that Sirius was completely freed from the crime. It was Voldemort—"

"There are no bones left, how tragic!" George pretended to touch his tears.

"Come on, Voldemort would never have kept his body. Dumbledore has explained the reason many times." Fred said, "He also said that Wright and another mysterious guest gave him a lot of help. Sent several vital props to Hogwarts."

"What could those props be?" said George. "Like the Elder Wand?"

"I'm explaining to you for the fifty-fourth time, I really don't know." Fred said, "Although I asked Wright many times, he never said anything, or asked me to ask Dumbledore , but how dare I!"

"Professor McGonagall—ah, it's Principal McGonagall. She will send an invitation to Wright again this year, asking him to come back as the professor of Transfiguration." George could only talk about another thing.

"I'm not optimistic," Fred shook his head and said, "Veletta Huppert, that girl has become the school's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Chang Chu would not trust Wright to return to Hogwarts alone. of."

"Well, of our generation, we should be the only ones who haven't gotten married, right?" George thought of another thing inexplicably, "By the way, there is also Hermione, the respected Minister of Magic, who is also single."

"I'm not married, not because I don't want to get married, but because I'm waiting for someone."

"me too."

At this moment, two adults suddenly walked in front of the door.

"Look, there are adults who like our products now! Is that—Angelina?"

"...Who is that pretty boy next to her?"

"Oops!"

"It's terrible!"
