Bruce waved his wand, and a piece of jade-white flesh floated into his mouth.
Bruce took a gentle bite and an unbelievable sweetness blossomed in his mouth. He even thought he was eating a candy - but the fragrance of the juice and the wonderful taste that burst out made him clearly understand that this was not a delicacy that could be created by any kind of sugar.
For all Hufflepuffs, the fruit tower contained fruits they had never seen before. For a moment, the candies and cakes were somewhat neglected...
As the fruit tart was being consumed rapidly, everyone couldn't help but become more interested in the surprise Adam mentioned.
Halloween is slowly approaching with everyone's anticipation... However, for little wizards in grade three and above, the day before Halloween is also very important.
That was the day they could get away from school and go to Hogsmeade to relax!
Chapter 107 Hogsmeade Village
Adam was dragged up by Cologne early that morning.
"Oh, don't sleep! Adam, do you remember that we have to go to Hogsmeade today?"
"Well……?"
Adam, who was still sleepy, rubbed his eyes, picked up Xiao Ke, who was also woken up and stretching, and took a sip:
"Then there's no need to get up so early..."
Adam scooped up the Spit and took another sip:
"And why are you looking forward to it so much... Is it that my cooking isn't as good as the Three Broomsticks? Is it that my desserts aren't as good as the ones at Honeydukes? Or is it that Fred and George's prank props aren't as interesting as Zonko's Joke Shop?"
Apart from these few shops, there aren't many shops in Hogsmeade that attract people...
"But I still want to take you to my house!"
After hearing what Cologne said, Adam suddenly realized:
"Oh, yes. Your shop is also in Hogsmeade. I can also check if there are any shops or houses for sale while I'm there. I might as well buy them."
After finally being able to leave the castle, Bernard, who was putting on his shirt, slowly turned his head and looked at Adam:
"You... can afford to buy a store with the money you have?"
"That should be enough..."
Adam now has several million Galleons in his bag. If that is not enough, he can turn one into two and two into four... It can only be said that the goblins trust them too much in their ability to identify every real coin, so the inspection of Galleons is entirely done manually, which provides great convenience for Adam.
Since they were going to visit the Colon family, they certainly couldn't go empty-handed. Bernard and the others planned to buy some souvenirs in Hogsmeade... Although it was near the Colon family, it would never go wrong to buy some daily necessities.
Adam prepared a large box of long-lasting cakes, which, given the current climate, can be kept dry and for about a month.
There was no way. The last time Colon described his sister Kelly's mental state, it was really too beautiful, so Adam couldn't help but worry about Colon's physical and mental health.
After washing up and having a simple breakfast, everyone gathered in the castle's entrance hall. Filch held a long scroll of parchment that almost hung to his feet, staring at everyone's face, making sure that they matched the names on the list one by one and that no one had sneaked into the team.
After checking every person in the team, Fil led them to Hogsmeade. Before leaving, he turned around and closed the door leading to the outside world from the hall.
Along the way, the students around him chattered about the destination they had decided on long ago. Cologne looked at his roommates:
"My parents should have just opened their doors at this hour and be busy. We can go shopping somewhere else before we go...how about going for a butterbeer first?"
"Butterbeer? Can we drink?"
Adam raised his eyebrows. This drink contains alcohol.
"As for butter beer, there's no problem. The alcohol content of this thing is very low. Even a young wizard won't get drunk after drinking it. It has a mellow and dense taste and tastes pretty good."
Cologne shrugged his shoulders:
"Although it's still inferior to the drinks Yadang sells, it at least contains alcohol. It would be a novel experience for you and Bernard to try it."
Even if Adam could sell sweets and drinks on campus, alcoholic beverages were obviously not available. The most he could do was to buy some rice wine by skirting the rules such as "add more rice wine to the rice dumplings". The rice wine produced by Ganpai was not intoxicating, so the professors turned a blind eye and let it go.
People are always naturally curious about things that are forbidden to do, so butterbeer can still hold its place in the market even though Adam's drinks almost dominate Hogwarts.
"Then go and try it~"
Adam touched his chin. He had never drunk butter beer before.
Mrs. Rosmerta, the proprietress of the Three Broomsticks, was a charming woman. When Adam and his friends saw the Three Broomsticks, she was standing at the door enthusiastically inviting the new third-year students to come in and try the barbecue set meal, which came with a glass of butter beer.
"I heard before that because of you, Adam, the income of shop owners with food-related businesses in Hogsmeade Village has dropped sharply. It seems to be true."
Colon leaned over to Adam and whispered.
"If that's the case, Adam, shouldn't you pretend?"
Eugene hesitated for a moment and said,
"There may be many store managers in Hogsmeade who are dissatisfied with you..."
"There's no need. I'm going to open a shop in Hogsmeade Village later. Why should I be afraid of them doing anything?"
Adam shook his head. Although his voice was light, it revealed full of confidence:
"I didn't engage in malicious competition, but I still took away their business. They should reflect on their own problems."
If he really wanted to engage in malicious competition, he could just put Butterbeer on the shelves in the convenience store and sell it one silver Sickle cheaper than the Three Broomsticks. Anyway, this liquid would be impossible to tell even if it was duplicated with two brands, and the Three Broomsticks would completely lose its student customer base.
"That's what I said..."
Bernard narrowed his eyes and dragged out his words:
"If everyone thought this way, the crime rate in London would drop by at least three percentage points."
"If they attack me, it's not certain who will suffer the most in the end."
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of the Three Broomsticks Pub.
"Oh~ You are all new faces. Would you like to try the store's signature barbecue set? Each set comes with a glass of butter beer~"
Ms. Rosmerta rested one hand on her waist and the other on the door frame of the Three Broomsticks, a warm smile on her face.

"No, five butterbeers will be fine."
"Okay, just go to the bar and place your order. We have a lot of customers during this time, so customers will need to pick up their own food."
After hearing Adam's answer, Ms. Rosmota's smile did not diminish at all:
"If you are a group of five, there is a large table available inside the bar. Please walk to the left after entering the door."
"Hmm... this lady boss is much calmer than I thought. I thought she would do more salesmanship."
After entering the door, Bernard nodded.
"Ms. Rosmerta is famous for her hospitality. Otherwise, the Three Broomsticks would not have become one of the most important attractions in Hogsmeade. Everyone who comes to Hogsmeade will come here to sit down."
Colon explained, then looked in the direction Ms. Rosmerta mentioned:
"You guys go sit down first, this meal is on me~"
Five cups of butterbeer didn't cost much, so everyone nodded and walked around the bar and a wall on the left and found a round table in the back space to sit down.
Soon, Cologne returned with five glasses of butterbeer:
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Brothers, come and pick it up!"
"Wow, that's a big cup!"
Adam looked at the cup of draft beer with some surprise. This cup probably contained more than one liter.
With a raise of his hand, five cups of butterbeer floated up from Cologne's hand and fell onto the round table.
"Wow~ Adam, your levitation spell is amazing."
Colon wiped the sweat from his forehead. If he used the levitation spell, he was not sure that the five cups full of butterbeer would not spill at all.
"I didn't expect the butter beer in this store is so affordable..."
Adam picked it up and took a closer look. This cup was indeed the real deal. The cup was filled to the brim. The foam on the top was less than a centimeter thick, and the rest was butterbeer.
"The cups weren't this big before. It seems that Ms. Rosmerta made adjustments to attract business."
Cologne picked it up and took a big sip. The cold butter beer had a special aroma, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh:
"Fortunately, the taste hasn't changed...try it now!"
Upon hearing this, Adam and the others raised their glasses and drank.
However, just after taking a sip, before Adam could savor the taste of butter beer, he raised his eyes and saw a red-haired, green-eyed figure passing through the wall of the Three Broomsticks, and then passing out again...
"cough--"
Chapter 108 Arrogant
"It's okay, Harry, no one will notice you."
As the voices were talking, Hermione, Ron and Harry came over, each holding a glass of butterbeer, and sat down in a seat not far from them.
"Even if they noticed, who would know that your parents didn't sign for you and that you sneaked out using an invisible cloak?"
Adam: "..."
He looked around and saw that the expressions of the other four people at the table were also very subtle.
"Can't they...see us?"
Cologne lowered his voice and asked this question with doubt in his heart.
Adam glanced at the potted holly tree that stood between them and Harry's table. It didn't look like it could block their view. If he couldn't recognize them, could he not recognize their school uniforms?
Or……
Adam glanced at the Badger Court logo on his chest.
Are the badgers' presence so low?
"Thank you for having a drink with me."
Harry sighed suddenly.
"Professor Trelawney's prediction really put a lot of pressure on me..."
"Are you still thinking about that prophecy?"
Hermione's voice suddenly rose an octave.
"I told you, she's just a liar—"
"Oh! Come on, Harry, don't listen to her. She doesn't care what anyone thinks."
Ron interrupted Hermione somewhat rudely.
"..."
The people at the next table were chatting so enthusiastically and so arrogantly that Adam didn't know whether he should continue chatting or not. At the same time, he couldn't help but become a little curious about what they were talking about.
After all, gossiping is human nature...
Comforting himself in this way, Adam took a sip of butterbeer and pricked up his ears with a clear conscience.
"Actually, before school started..."
Harry hesitated, then told her how he had inflated his aunt and left the Dursleys.
"what?!"
Hermione exclaimed, and then asked Harry in a low voice - but Adam and the others could still hear it clearly:
"The Ministry of Magic didn't arrest you and put you in Azkaban?"
"You didn't tell us that!"
Ron slammed the table excitedly, without lowering his voice - Adam suspected that the walls could hear his voice:
"So where did you live before school started? Why didn't you come visit us?"
"Well... I live in the Leaky Cauldron, but that's not the point."
Harry skipped the topic somewhat abruptly:
"The point is, when I just left the Dursleys' house, I really saw a big black dog at that intersection!"
