What he did not mention is that the total volume of Hogsmeade Village stores has almost remained unchanged.
After all, it is not only a shop, but also the home of wizards.
Later, due to the occupancy of Trick Shop, Hogsmeade expanded a little, and then there was an opportunity for new stores to enter.
This is also thanks to Weasleys, I don't know how they persuaded those stubborn wizards.
"Want to go?"
Justin asked as if he didn't care.
"Hmm."
By the way...Sean nodded.
"Although I can't personally host the opening, it is a pleasant thing to see my own store open with my own eyes."
Justin opened the box, and the hot air was flying, like the white fog in the morning.
So, one day after Halloween, Sean's itinerary was extremely full.
In the morning, they have to go to Hagrid's Hut.
In the afternoon, he was going to watch the opening of two shops at Hogsmeade, and by the way, he went to Gringotts to pick up some things.
At night, he can test his ideas.
The opening time of the store is chosen during the holiday after Halloween, which I have to say is a good time.
The little wizards of Hogwarts are just able to go to Hogsmeade, and the vacation has just been taken, so everyone must be worrying about homework.
As for today.
Hagrid's interview is coming soon too.
The interview process went extremely smoothly, and all reporters left with their manuscripts satisfied.
Sean guessed that this was due to Headmaster Dumbledore smiling and blinking at the side.
The reporters assured in unison:
We will not misinterpret any content because of Ministry of Magic's power, and we will definitely publish the report truthfully.
In a few weeks, overwhelming reports will sweep across the entire Britain.
When Sean passed by the corridor, he found that Hogwarts Castle was already immersed in the festive atmosphere.
Great Hall has been decorated with live bats as usual.
The huge Pumpkins species of Hagrid was carved into lanterns, big enough for three people to sit inside. People also rumored that Dumbledore had booked a skeleton dance troupe to entertain everyone.
Just like the rumors about the last Weird Sisters concert, they were made by little wizards to vent their excitement.
But it seems that the festive atmosphere is more intense.
From time to time, there are little wizards in the corridor talking about the Halloween version of Weird Wizard's Chess. At this time, Sean already feels bad, and he has forgotten about it.
Fortunately, it's not too late to make up for it now.
In the Great Hall, there are also wizards who appear strange Transfiguration: such as suddenly growing owl wings, or possessing lion hair.
These are newer biscuits, mainly relying on the "part-animal version" of Animal Party series biscuits.
"Partial animal version" is the result of Fred and George studying Transfiguration Biscuits for a year. It can be used as a part of the wizard to Transfiguration, so that the wizard can experience animal abilities without losing consciousness.
Halloween has arrived.
At seven o'clock, Sean and Justin walked straight through a doorway, which led to the crowded Great Hall.
The place was decorated with lanterns, candlelight was shining, and gold plates were placed on the table. It was very tempting, but they still walked in the direction of Dungeon Classroom.
"We'll just go there for a while."
Harry, Ron, Hermione and Neville are already waiting here.
Subsequently,
The aisle they walked to Nearly Headless Nick's party was also lit with candles, but the effect was not pleasant at all:
They are all small, dark, thin candles that glow with blue light when burning. Even when it shines on their six vibrant faces, they look eerie.
The temperature dropped with every step they took. Harry shivered and tightened his clothes around himself.
At this time, he heard a sound, as if a thousand nails were scraping back and forth on a huge blackboard.
"Is that also called music?"
Ron whispered. They turned a corner and saw Nearly Headless Nick standing at a doorway, covered with a black velvet curtain.
"My dear friends,"
He said with infinite sadness,
"Welcome, welcome... I'm so happy that you can come..."
He took off his feathered hat, bowed and invited them in.
The sight in front of me is really eye-opening.
Dungeon Classroom was crowded with hundreds of milky white, translucent figures, most of them swimming around in the overcrowded dance floor, waltzing to the terrifying and trembling sounds of thirty musical saws. The band playing the musical saws sat on the stage covered with black cloth.
A thousand black candles were also lit in a chandelier overhead, emitting midnight blue light. The breaths of the six of them formed clouds of mist in front of them, as if they had walked into a refrigerator.
"Please pay attention, now I start talking!"
Nearly Headless Nick said loudly, striding towards the podium and coming under a cold blue spotlight.
"My late Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen, it is with great sadness that I..."
After his opening remarks, some headless ghosts played a game - Head Hockey.
It refers to throwing a person's head, catching it and then throwing it up while riding a horse.
And Nearly Headless Nick really wants to join, but unfortunately, he is "Nearly Headless Nick", and these truly headless ghosts will not let him join.
"Can this also cause discrimination?"
When hearing this, Ron was stunned.
"Please, they are all dead!"
"Uh-huh."
Hermione snorted coldly.
These headless ghosts steal Nearly Headless Nick's majesty, and Nearly Headless Nick tries in vain to recapture the audience and say something.
However, a ghost member's head flew past him amid cheers, and Nearly Headless Nick had no choice but to be defeated.
Left Dungeon Classroom,
Great Hall seems much warmer.
There is a sweet and tempting smell of roasting Pumpkins here, which is reminiscent of the Pumpkins house that Justin is preparing to carve in Hope Cottage.
No one can imagine how interesting that would be.
Hermione is trying to eat a Spirit Cat Biscuit, which was sent by her parents. It is said that Transfiguration can randomly turn a part of the body into a cat.
When she finished eating, everyone laughed.
"Oh, Hermione, you'd better eat Restoration Biscuit quickly."
Justin smiled and handed over a mirror, while Sean handed over Restoration Biscuit.
Hermione looked in the mirror and quickly buried her head - her face was covered with cat hair.
Ron was still laughing until tears came out at first, but then Hermione stuffed a Mouse Biscuits into his mouth, and he couldn't laugh anymore.
I could only stare blankly at my own rat tail with a sad face.
Sean smiled slightly and watched them excitedly try random cookies.
This Halloween is not like the previous Halloween, Troll is rampant.
This autumn, Hogwarts there is no war.
