Chapter 5: CH 5

Tom has seen many young wizards from Muggle families in his shop being brought to him by guides and then into Diagon Alley. 

In fact, to put it more bluntly, the Leaky Cauldron was the outpost of the wizarding world and the Muggle world. And Tom was actually a half-Hogwarts student receptionist. 

"Where's your leader? My child." 

Tom asked a question with great interest to the eleven-year-old boy in front of him. 

"Leader?" 

Rey was stunned in an instant, and he didn't seem to have encountered any guides. 

"It's the teacher who brought you into Diagon Alley, isn't it?" Tom saw Rey's confused expression. However, just because he could see clearly, he naturally had some doubts, so 'No?. 

"I am an orphan." 

Rey sighed and smiled wryly. 

"No, no, boy, you don't understand what I mean. Every little Muggle-born wizard has a teacher who will lead the way. Since you're an orphan, there should be extra relief money and a guide." 

Tom explained carefully while pouring a glass of sweet and sour juice for Rey. 

Money? Guide? Rey looked at Tom in front of him with mixed feelings. 

I am an orphan. There was no need to doubt that. Now not only was there no Guide, but the key was that I have not even seen the relief fund you are talking about. 

"Sir, can you let me go to Diagon Alley?" 

A little disappointed, but Rey didn't care too much about it. Compared with the guide, what Rey wanted was the dole. 

"Okay, drink this drink first, and then I'll take you there." 

Tom no longer struggled with this issue. Although a little wizard who was new to Hogwarts and being without a guide was rare, but it wasn't a big deal. 

...... 

Rey also found a place to stay, and he could stay at the Leaky Cauldron until September 1st. Of course, this all requires money. 

Fortunately, he had enough pounds on him, and Old Tom kindly exchanged Galleons for himself. 

Twenty-five Galleons, thirteen Sickles, and twenty knuts, this was the wizard gold coin exchanged for the money left in Ray's hand. 

Although Tom was a good man, he still liked to take care of himself. Even for the glass of juice, he counted the cost. 

For this, Rey could only helplessly smile. Although there was not much money in his hands, after arriving at Hogwarts, he would be able to receive the orphan's relief, he would no longer struggle with this issue. 

When the brick wall began to spin, Rey, clasped his hands, feeling somewhat excited. 

Magic, it was really amazing, these bricks that were rotating seemed to have life.

Tom smiled and gestured to Rey, and warned Rey that Knockturn Alley was on the right-hand side of the entrance, and it was not good to accidentally go there. 

Thanks to Tom's kindness, Ray walked into Diagon Alley. 

Diagon Alley was really lively, especially during the school season. 

There are all kinds of people bustling around, adults dressed in retro robes, and children who were purchasing and exploring school supplies. 

Rey also walked into the crowd and started looking for Ollivander's wand shop in Diagon Alley. 

He decided to buy wands first, and then buy other things. 

The magic wand, if there was no accident, it will definitely accompany him for the rest of his life. As a person who has seen Harry Potter in his previous life, the first thing he wants to know when entering the magical world of magic is what kind of wand he will have. 

Ollivander's wand shop was small and shabby, with a solitary wand on a faded purple cushion in the window. 

The lacquer of the golden sign on the door has peeled off, and it read: Ollivander, a well-made wand since 382 BC. 

In Diagon Alley, Ollivander's wand shop is very easy to find. Besides, this is the only wand shop in Diagon Alley. 

When Ray arrived here, there happened to be a little girl who came out of the store happily under the guidance of an adult. She must have got the wand she liked. 

With excitement, Ray walked into the store. 

The vague impression in his mind overlapped with reality, Ollivander's had messy silver hair, no beard, and wrinkles on his face. He was an elderly man, but his face was very bright. 

Speaking from the bottom of his heart, when he first saw Ollivander's, Rey felt that he was very much like a giant in the scientific world: Einstein. 

"HI, kid, do you want to buy a wand too?" 

Without waiting for Rey to speak, the enthusiastic Ollivander asked spontaneously. 

"Yes, sir." 

Rey was a little restrained. This old man who looked like Einstein always made him feel a little crazy. 

"Don't be nervous, kid. Come to me and you can choose your favourite wand. Of course, in this process, the wand actually chooses you..." 

Ollivander was very talkative as if he was using words to make Rey relax, and at the same time held a tape measure in his hand to measure Rey, so that he could find out the wand that chose Rey more quickly. 

"Sir, can I ask a question?" Ray asked when Ollivander was measuring. 

"Of course, I'm honoured to answer your question, child," Ollivander replied kindly, without stopping. 

"Excuse me, why when you choose a wand and you need to measure every part of your body?" Rey was very curious when he watched the movie in his previous life, and now he finally asked about it out of curiosity. 

For this question, Ollivander was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "You are still the first child to ask me this question." 

Rey didn't say anything, he waited for Ollivander's explanation.
