Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione excitedly discussed the future design and planning of the shop, the goods that could be sold here, the pricing, and so on.
Lupin inspected the house alone, checking to see if there were any dangers or hidden dangers that needed to be dealt with. In less than ten minutes, he found two Boggart's, more than ten nests of rats and spiders, a large group of foxes, and patches of Mottled Earth Rays.
Mottled Earth Rays were a type of parasitic magical creature that was easy to survive and reproduce.
They looked like slightly greenish fungi with eyes, and were adept at crawling under the floorboards and behind the baseboards. They appeared in groups in the house.
Usually, when something rotted and gave off a foul smell, Mottled Earth Rays would appear.
Once a house had Mottled Earth Rays, they would slowly secrete a corrosive substance that would slowly corrode the foundation of the house.
"This is very bad, we have to deal with these Mottled Earth Rays as soon as possible!" Lupin flipped over a piece of floorboard and gestured for Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione to look inside.
Elwyn saw a large patch of Mottled Earth Rays stuck under the rotting floorboards. Because they were frightened, they hurriedly crawled away with their countless slender legs.
"Generally speaking, Sweeping Spells are very effective against Mottled Earth Rays." Lupin clapped his hands and stood up. "But there are too many Mottled Earth Rays here. If we act rashly, it will likely result in very serious consequences, and the house might even collapse. We need to contact the Pest Advisory Committee of the Ministry of Magic, and they will send someone to deal with this matter. "
Just as Lupin said, the house had been abandoned for too long, and unlike Number 12 Grimmauld Square, which was protected by various spells, the condition of the house was very bad.
Just as they were discussing how to deal with the troublesome creatures living in the shop, Sirius walked in.
He had already changed to a new wand. It was a beautiful black wand made of hawthorn wood, and the core of the wand was the tendon of a dragon's heart. In addition to the new wand, he also carried a cage in his hand. There was a beautiful owl inside, and it chirped excitedly when it saw Elwyn and the others.
"I just went to the owl shop next door and bought this owl. I'm going to give it to the Weasley boy named Ron." Sirius said, "He might be willing to keep the owl. After all, it was my fault that he lost that mouse."
"He will definitely be happy. Ron has always wanted a pet of his own."
"As long as he likes it!" Sirius said with a smile. He put the cage on the ground and walked into the shop to look around. "Elwyn, what do you think of this place?"
"The layout is very good. It's similar to what I imagined, but it needs to be cleaned up. Before you came, we also found a large patch of Mottled Earth."
"This shop hasn't been used for a long time. It's not strange to have these things here." Sirius opened the floor and looked at it. He frowned and said, "These things are not easy to deal with. We'd better go eat first and then visit your friend. In the meantime, I'll ask Kritcher to do a simple cleaning here. "
"You can leave the Mottled Earth to me." Lupin then said, "I have an acquaintance in the Pest Advisory Committee. He's an expert in dealing with creatures like this."
They discussed for a while and returned to the Leaky Cauldron for lunch.
Then, they set off to St. Mungo's Magic Hospital to visit Ron. This time, they did not take the Knight's bus. Sirius and Lupin took Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione directly to Phantom Shift.
There was a thud, and they emerged into a wide Muggle street.
"Where is St. Mungo's Hospital?" Harry looked around curiously. "Why don't we just Phantom Shift?"
"When the hospital was first established, the people did that. But as the number of patients increased, the Ministry of Magic banned Phantom Shift in the hospital. It's easy to cause accidents," Lupin explained. "As for the location, we're now standing at the entrance of the hospital."
In front of them was an old-fashioned red brick department store called Tao Tao Limited.
It looked dilapidated and deserted. There were only a few broken mannequins in the window, with their wigs askew and different postures. They were dressed in clothes that were at least ten years old. On the dusty door hung a sign saying "Closed for renovation."
Near a particularly ugly female mannequin, Elwyn felt a strange magic aura.
"Go this way!" Sirius mumbled. He pushed Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione in front of him. "There are too many Muggle here, and the land in Diagon Alley is not enough. The Ministry of Magic spent a lot of effort to find this place to build the hospital. The reason is that the patients can blend in with the crowd."
Beside them was the commercial street of Muggle. There was an endless stream of people and cars, which was a sharp contrast to Diagon Alley.
"Don't the Muggle stay at home for Christmas?" Sirius asked curiously. "What are they doing here?!"
"There's a commercial area nearby. People come here to have dinner, shop, sing, watch movies, and so on during the holidays." Noticing the confusion on Sirius's face, Elwyn continued to explain. "A movie is a machine that records people's specific movements and then replays it on a big screen."
"I know. That's the special magic of Muggle. The effect is similar to the meditation basin!" Sirius looked around, and his right hand unconsciously touched the wand on his waist. "We'll discuss this later. You three better stay close to me. If anything happens, I can take action."
Looking at Sirius, Elwyn doubted if he really understood what he said.
In fact, except for special cases like Mr. Weasley, wizards knew very little about the Muggle World. Most people's knowledge about it was limited to a few hundred years ago.
Regarding the rapid development of technology in the Muggle World, the magic world basically did not care.
Suddenly, an idea came to Elwyn's mind. Maybe he could try to cooperate with Mr. Weasley and introduce some of the more advanced machinery in the Muggle World to the magic world. Maybe it would have an unexpected effect.
Unfortunately, the defense magic of the Hogwarts prohibited the operation of all electronic equipment. It could only be promoted in Diagon Alley first.
Elwyn considered the feasibility of this idea in his mind. He followed Harry to the dummy in the green nylon dress that he sensed something strange.
"We're going in. Are you three ready?" Sirius asked.
Everyone nodded and moved closer to the center.
Elwyn saw Lupin, who was standing at the front, move closer to the window and looked up at the ugly dummy. His breath blurred the glass.
"Hello, we're here to visit Ron Weasley."
At that moment, Elwyn thought that Lupin looked very funny, talking in such a small voice through the glass. The street behind them was filled with the sound of cars passing by.
Harry and Hermione felt the same. They looked up at Lupin and Sirius in confusion. Then, their mouths opened wide in shock. The dummy in front of them nodded slightly and waved her fingers together.
In the next second, they seemed to have passed through a layer of cold water and entered a warm and dry room.
