A certain Hogwarts magical cat

Chapter 320 Time Converter

"All right!"

Alice packed all the third-grade textbooks into her big bag, and returned to the door of the bookstore with "Firebolt" and Charlie.

"They should be almost here!"

Alice glanced at the time, and it was not a few minutes before the time agreed upon by their owl pass.

As soon as her words fell, an excited shout came from a distance:
"Alice! Charlie!"

Turning her head to look, it was Hermione who was smiling all over her face, wearing a wizard robe, running towards this side.

"Hermione!"

Alice immediately put down the "Firebolt" and her schoolbag in her hands, opened her arms and gave Hermione a big hug.

After the hug, Hermione asked with some doubts:

"Alice, why did you come so early this time?"

"Because it was Charlie who apparated me this time!"

Alice picked up Charlie who was on the ground, and shook Alice proudly.

"Apparition? That's pretty advanced magic!"

Hermione knew that Charlie was very powerful, but in her impression, the most powerful thing about Charlie was his powerful physical body. This was an eye-opener for her when she was in Hua Country.

As for magic, although she knew that Charlie knew a lot of innate magic, she didn't expect that he could even do high-level magic like Apparition.

"Harry and Ron haven't arrived yet?"

After being surprised, Hermione looked around, but didn't see Harry and Ron, so she asked.

Alice shrugged:

"A few days ago, Ron said that after they returned from Egypt, they brought Harry to the Burrow with his uncle who didn't want to send him to Diagon Alley to buy school supplies. If they wanted to come with them, they might not be so punctual!"

"Then I'll go buy books first, I've signed up for all the courses, and now there are a lot of books to buy!"

Hermione nodded.

……

Ten minutes later, Alice looked at the three big bags of new textbooks in Hermione's hands, and said helplessly:
"Hermione, you know, there is no clone spell in our magic, can you really finish all these courses?"

However, upon hearing Alice's words, Hermione suddenly laughed, and then whispered back:

"Don't worry, there is already a solution. Professor McGonagall said that you can go to her when school starts!"

At this time, Charlie also looked up at Hermione thoughtfully.

If he remembered correctly, Professor McGonagall should have applied to the Ministry of Magic for a time converter for Hermione, so that Hermione could take two classes at the same time.

Time-Turner, to be honest, Charlie is still very interested in this thing.

In his opinion, as long as it involves time and space-related magic, it must be extremely difficult and extremely advanced magic.

Charlie was really surprised that a magical item like the Time Converter could actually reverse time and go back to the past.

However, based on his current understanding of magic, he felt that things should not be that simple.

If the Time-Turner can really go back and change the past, why don't wizards use it to go back to Voldemort's childhood and just solve it?

Maybe the Time-Turner isn't powerful enough to go back days, not decades.

However, the time converter was not made in recent years. If it can really change the past, Dumbledore can go back to before Harry's parents were killed and save them.

But in fact no, the Potters were killed by Voldemort.

Presumably it wasn't that Dumbledore was unwilling, but that he couldn't do it at all!

According to what Charlie had learned before, the changes Harry and Hermione made after returning to the past had actually been experienced before they went back.

For example, the reminder in Hagrid's hut, the rescued Buckbeak, the Patronus Charm that Harry successfully released to save himself, and so on.

Therefore, Charlie felt that even if the time converter can go back to the past, it can't change the past at all, or the past you changed with the time converter has become a part of the past.

Otherwise, a powerful magic item that can change the past would never be handed over to a little third-year wizard so easily.

The point is, there are not one or two time converters like this in the Ministry of Magic, but a bunch of them.

However, it is still very useful. At least being able to use it to study like Hermione does is equivalent to having a lot more time.

And how to get a time converter is too simple for Charlie.

Of course he wouldn't take Hermione's, he wasn't that bad, and he didn't think about going directly to the Ministry of Magic to steal it, because when the warehouse lost a time-turner, the Ministry of Magic would definitely track it down.

What he really wanted was to be able to use it openly, so it was very simple.

Find Dumbledore!

It is not easy for Dumbledore to come forward and get a time-turner from the Ministry of Magic.

……

"By the way, Alice, I still have some Galleons, anyway, they haven't come yet, why don't you accompany me to the Fantastic Beasts Store first!"

Hermione put down the three big sacks of books in her hands, and proposed while hugging Alice's arm.

"Fantastic Beasts Store?"

Alice had a look of surprise on her face.

Hermione explained:
"September is my birthday, and the last time I traveled to Hua Country, I basically didn't spend any money, so my father gave me some extra money this time, and asked me to buy myself a gift in advance!"

Alice suddenly understood:
"So you now want to buy a pet as your birthday present!"

"Yeah, you see Ron has Errol, Harry has Hedwig, and you have Charlie and Longears, so I really want a pet, preferably a cat!"

Hermione looked at Charlie who was helping Alice with her luggage with her tail, showing a very envious look.

"Although I can't find a cat as good as Charlie, even if it's an ordinary magical cat, I'm very happy!"

"For a cat as good as mine, you probably won't be able to find another one if you search all over the world!"

Charlie raised his head and made a secret complaint.

"Then let's go, when I just came here, I saw a family, let's go and have a look at that house!"

Alice nodded, and readily agreed to accompany Hermione to buy a cat.

So, Hermione and Alice first stored the purchased books and the "Firebolt" in the Lihen Bookstore, and then walked over to the Fantastic Beasts Store with Charlie.

"By the way, mom and dad have something to do today. They just opened a room for me at the Leaky Cauldron and put all my luggage in it. I'll be staying at the Leaky Cauldron tonight, and I'll go straight to the station tomorrow morning!"

"Well, then I will come to accompany you at night, and go to King's Cross Station tomorrow!"

"That's great, I'm really a little scared to live in the Leaky Cauldron by myself, but I'm not afraid when I'm with you and Charlie!"
