v3 Chapter 4： Please don't overthink

Facing such a big yellow cat that was covetous, Scabbers' eyes flashed a ray of light. He twisted in the hands of the teller witch, broke free, and ran to the door. Ron shouted his name and chased after him. , Harry saw this and followed.

The two searched for a full quarter of an hour and found no sign of Scabbers. When Harry had given up, Ron found Scabbers under the trash can outside the Quidditch boutique.

Crookshanks, who frightened Scabbers away, didn't have any self-consciousness to "get into trouble". He patted the counter contentedly, and a cat and cat folded his hands, and dozed off.

"It's called Crookshanks?" Hermione walked over to the counter and looked at the cat seriously.

It all happened so fast just now that she couldn't see the cat's face clearly until now. Crookshanks looks like a shrunken lion, it has thick and fluffy **** hair, and four short legs with a ring, its face seems to be squashed, and its expression looks unhappy It looks like someone owes it small dried fish.

Tom recognized the cat, which looked like a Persian cat in appearance. However, the character is too lively, and it may be the blood of the cat raccoon.

To Tom, this cat doesn't quite fit his aesthetic - he likes a raccoon-like cat with medium-length fur, a shrewd look, and a little tiger-like appearance (Note 1)

However, Hermione liked furry things very much. She looked at the Persian cat with a doting face, and she was eager to try it out. She wanted to reach out and touch it, but it was not very interesting.

"It, um..." Hermione hesitated.

The teller saw through Hermione's thoughts, "This cat was a stray cat at first, it seems that the little girl before gave him a little cake, and it just stayed here, I can't remember how many years, anyway, It has been here for a long time and has not met anyone who is willing to adopt it."

The teller felt a little emotional, this cat is older than her qualifications.

"Is that so..." Hermione nodded, and when she heard about Crookshanks' experience, she couldn't help but glance at Tom, and Tom was furious all of a sudden.

"Don't bring it in!" Tom was a little dissatisfied. Am I the guy who can be caught with just a little cake and full of favorability! If it goes on like this, if our experience is adapted into a game in the future, I won't become the kind of character that is automatically obtained after signing in for seven days, right? Or the first charge brother who will give away the first charge of 6 yuan?

The worst thing is the five-star Hermione UP pool, and the four-star match is Tom Yodel... Even if it can be called [Six-star God of War] in terms of strength, it would be a shame!

Tom thought for a while, if he was adapted into a game character, it would be a good assistant: able to milk, revive, remove negative states, have hard control, and have a certain output...

In addition to not being able to increase attack power, it is basically a hexagon! Basically implemented the best support is to help the leader C kill all the enemies of this spirit.

"Okay~ okay~ good-" Hermione rubbed Tom's head and messed up his hair, "You're not, you're not the same as the cat~"

Then she looked at the clerk, "Can I try to cuddle it?"

The clerk nodded: "Of course you can, but be careful, it has a bad temper."

However, when Hermione reached out and hugged Crookshanks gently, Crookshanks didn't mean any rejection, and snored comfortably. Cats purr only when they are most comfortable and safe. It can be seen that Hermione and Crookshanks really hit it off.

In the end, the clerk didn't accept Hermione's money and gave Crookshanks to her for free.

Tom and Hermione left the magical zoo and returned to the crowded street, Crookshanks sleeping soundly in Hermione's arms.

When they saw Harry and Ron, Ron's eyes bulged: "You bought this monster?!"

"Didn't buy it, and the fur is nice, isn't it?" Hermione grinned, burying her face in Crookshanks' belly and taking a breath.

Ron felt that his temples were about to explode, and he dragged Harry away from Hermione, lest the mad cat attacked his Scabbers - it had just woken up in Hermione's arms and had been staring at him, watching. his heart fluttered.

The four parted, and Tom and Hermione wandered around Diagon Alley for a while.

When passing a shop selling magic trinkets, Tom stopped when something on the counter caught his attention.

Hermione: ?

Tom ran into the shop quickly, and after a while ran out like a gust of wind, and Hermione noticed that he seemed to have tucked a small box into his robe.

Hermione: ? ?

"Hey!" Tom didn't mean to explain, and walked directly to the Leaky Cauldron.

When he returned to the bar, Tom saw a lot of red hair: the Weasleys were chatting with Harry, and their youngest daughter Ginny was standing on the side with a blushing face and quietly listening to her brothers chatting.

When they saw Tom and Hermione coming, they also greeted them kindly.

"Hello, Yordle, Granger." Percy held out his hand solemnly, like a diplomatic meeting. Fred and George stood behind him, winking and grimacing at Tom.

"Congratulations, you became the student council president (Note 2

"Yeah." But Percy's seriousness was quickly broken by Fred and George, and they were laughing and laughing together.

In the evening, everyone put together two long tables for a sumptuous dinner. After dinner, everyone went their separate ways.

At night, when Tom was cooking by the fireplace, he saw Harry come out with a pile of scrap newspapers. What caught Tom's attention was that the pictures on the scrap newspapers in Harry's hands were all still.

It's not easy to meet Muggle newspapers in Diagon Alley.

So Tom stopped Harry and told him to burn the papers later. Harry told him it was a disguise for his magic book. Aunt Petunia occasionally came into his room, and to be on the safe side, he not only hid the magic book, but also wrapped some old newspapers on it.

"That's it," Tom gave Harry a sympathetic look. He was much happier than Harry from the same background. But his eyes stopped as he scanned the newspaper.

He saw that the title of the old newspaper said: [Cuiyulu originally appeared in this world? A big discovery for a beautiful adventurer! 】

He pulled out the newspaper, folded it neatly and put it in his pocket.

"Tom, you happen to be here. I have something to ask you. Have you received that Hogsmeade application form? Who did you sign it for?" Harry didn't pay much attention to Tom's actions. important things.

"Mr Granger."

Harry: …

hateful! Is there such a way? Is it too late to find a girlfriend now? Harry thought bitterly.

"If there is nothing else, I'll go back first." Tom stood up, "The journey from platform 9? is about to begin again."
