Chapter 421 An Encounter at Honeydukes Store

Harry, Ron, and Hermione climbed up the steps one by one.

"Where is this?" Harry patted the dust on his body and looked around. It looked like a cellar. There were crates and other wooden boxes piled around it, with various notes with dates on them. .

"Basement! To be precise, we are in the basement of Honeydukes store!" Ivan explained.

Hermione looked at Harry and warned him. "Harry, put on the invisibility cloak quickly! Don't let others see it."

"Yeah." Harry nodded, put on the invisibility cloak, and disappeared from everyone's eyes.

Then Ivan quietly led them out of the basement.

Originally, Ron and others were very nervous, afraid of being discovered.

After all, if they were caught sneaking out of someone else's basement, it would be the end of the world.

But after actually walking out, Ron realized that no one would notice where they came from.

Because this place is so lively, filled with senior students from Hogwarts, and there are endless sounds of laughter and fights.

There are all kinds of delicious candies on rows of shelves all around. Chunks of creamy marzipan, sparkling pink coconut sorbet, honey-colored toffee, and dozens or hundreds of chocolate flavors are dazzling to see.

Especially on the shelves against the wall, there are magic candies with special effects placed on them.

For example, the little pepper urchin that can spit out a ball of flames after eating it, the explosive sandwich gummy that explodes when you take a bite, and the lollipop with a strong bloody flavor

The wide variety and novelty made it impossible for Harry and Hermione to take their eyes away when they came here for the first time.

Harry never knew that candies could be played in so many different ways. He was very excited when he saw the description above. He was ready to buy each one and taste it.

Except for the wealthy Harry, Hermione and Ron were all struggling to make choices. They had limited pocket money and could only buy a few to try.

Ivan looked at their excited and confused expressions and couldn't help but shake his head secretly. Candy is really attractive to children, even little wizards who can do magic are no exception.

Considering that there is no shortage of time to meet Sirius, Ivan can't force them to leave here, so he just lets them be happy for a while.

"Bloody-flavored lollipops look terrible. No one except vampires would like this kind of thing. Can the little pepper urchin really spit out a ball of fire after eating it? How does the mint ice cream taste?" Hermione picked. After a few candies, he hesitantly put back some that he was not interested in, and turned to look at Ivan to ask his opinion.

Ivan shook his head. He had never eaten this before. Just when he was thinking about what to say, he felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

"Are you looking for a candy that can spit fire after you eat it? We have it right here!" George and Fred came over laughing, holding an unbranded candy in their hands.

"This is our latest research result. It is definitely more interesting than the candies here! What do you think, do you want to try it? It's free!"

Seeing the two of them, Ivan felt a little surprised. He didn't expect such a coincidence.

However, Ivan had always been shy about thanking the Weasley brothers for their prank candy, so he shrugged and refused.

"We don't want to be your guinea pigs, so you should leave it to tricking others!"

"That's such a pity! If you want to buy it next time, you'll have to pay a fee." George shook his head in disappointment, then glanced at Ivan and others, and said unexpectedly.

"By the way, where is Harry? Didn't he come with you? Is he still trapped in the castle?"

"Oh, what a poor kid. Didn't you tell Harry about the secret passage? We see that he has been very unhappy recently, so you should take him out for a walk!" Fred also looked sad. With an expression on his face, he clicked his tongue and said.

"Harry is safe when he stays in school, you know" Hermione glared at them dissatisfied and spoke in a high tone, but soon realized that this might be heard by a fugitive, so she lowered her voice. , said word for word. "You know Sirius Black is still hunting him!"

"What are you afraid of? Ivan is still here. I think his magic level is no worse than some Aurors. If Black dares to come, he will catch him hahaha. Maybe Ivan can give him another level of Merlin Order." Level."

George said with a smile as he tore open the candy wrapper in his hand and threw it into his mouth.

However, this square candy stopped automatically at George's mouth in horror, and just hung in mid-air, moving slowly, and disappeared in front of them bit by bit.

There was also the sound of chewing candy from a place where no one was around.

What the hell?

George was startled immediately, and Fred also had a look of surprise on his face.

No, ordinary ghosts can't do this.

Hermione and Ron were holding back their smiles. Of course they knew what was going on.

After Harry, who was hiding under the invisibility cloak, swallowed the candy, he soon felt his throat burning as if it was on fire. It was very choking!

Harry couldn't help but raise his head and sneeze, and a stream of hot flames spurted out from his mouth, almost burning the shelves next to him.

In the seemingly deserted place, a few coughs soon sounded, followed by Harry's complaining voice.

"This stuff tastes too bad, you should improve it!"

Listening to the voice coming from nowhere, George and Fred took a few steps back in surprise until they heard it was Harry's voice, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.

How could they not understand that Harry was playing tricks on them, but they were even more curious about how Harry did it.

"Is it the Disillusionment Curse?! Harry, you actually mastered this!" George suddenly thought of the Disillusionment Curse and guessed in surprise.

"We have always wanted to learn it, but we haven't mastered this spell yet!" Fred also couldn't believe it.

"No, I don't know such an advanced spell. This is just the effect of the invisibility cloak!" Harry lifted the invisibility cloak a little, revealing his face, and then put it back on.

"Cool! That's so convenient!" George and Fred exclaimed. The price of an invisibility cloak is not cheap. If they had had this thing back then, it would have been much more convenient for them to go out for a walk.

Maybe they can still go to some places they've always wanted to go but didn't dare.

Thinking of this, George and Fred had looks of envy on their faces.

Hermione broke the cheerful atmosphere seriously and said: "Harry, you shouldn't do this. If anyone sees you, you will be finished!"

"Don't worry, no one looked here just now. George and Fred won't tell anyone!" Harry shook his head nonchalantly. He didn't think it was such a coincidence.

"Yes, yes! We are very strict with our mouths!" The Weasley brothers made a shut-up gesture together, promising never to tell anyone.

The few people laughed and chatted for a while, and then George and Fred separated from them. Ron and others also selected candies. Because it was inconvenient to show up, Ivan had to take the money to pay the bill on Harry's behalf.

Then Harry, Ron and Hermione, who were in high spirits, took Ivan with them to Zork's joke shop to buy many interesting prank products.

After playing like this for more than two hours, Ivan finally found a way to take them to a place that was said to be very interesting.

At first, Harry and others did not doubt their trust in Ivan. As the road became more and more remote, they felt that something was wrong.

"Ivan, what are we doing here? It looks like there is nothing here."

After walking through a small forest and entering a long-abandoned house, Hermione finally couldn't help but ask.

Harry and Ron also looked at Ivan in confusion.
