Hogwarts Crawler.

"I'm not used to storing things in Gringotts, sorry."

Adam spread his hands. He had even moved Nicolas Flamel's collection to a safe house whose space had been expanded by the wheel cards. Now the secret vault only contained a maze made with puzzle cards and dozens of dormant basilisks... If someone really broke in, he could surely give the intruder a surprise~

"Um...it's okay. I have a box with a traceless stretching spell cast on it."

The box that Ambrosio mentioned is used for transporting goods. Although it is not as convenient as a suitcase, it is still more convenient than carrying millions of gold coins.

With the money handed over in one hand and the title deed in the other, and with the signing of a magic contract, the transaction was completed with the satisfaction of both parties. Then the remaining customers in the store were told in confusion that the store had been sold and asked to leave.

"From now on, this store...will belong to Adam?"

The four of them then realized what Adam had done just now, but looking at the shelves around them, they still couldn't believe it.

"It still looks like Honeydukes Candy Store right now, but it will be much better once I renovate the store."

Adam looked around and thought that pastries, candies, cakes, etc. could be placed in different areas. As for sweet soups and the like, they would be better left for sale in the restaurant.

"Eh? But..."

Cologne suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but look at Adam:

"Adam, didn't you say you wanted to open a store next to my house?"

"It's okay, Cologne. The one next to your house is a restaurant, and the one over here is a dessert shop. Then it will be convenient for you to not only eat, but also buy candy."

Adam touched Cologne's head very smoothly. The soft, slightly curly golden fur felt very comfortable... It was like a long-haired version of Xiaoke!

Adam's expression was so familiar that it alerted Colon:

"Hmm? Adam, why do you look like you're petting your cat? Wait, even the way you're petting me seems to be..."

"Well... because I think you, Xiao Ke and Si Bi are all cute."

Adam didn't wait for Cologne to respond, and continued:

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Are we going to go directly to your place in Cologne next? Or are we going to visit other stores?"

"Eh? Let me think...Bernard, what time is it now?"

Colon, whose attention was easily diverted, looked at Bernard.

Bernard's eyes fell on Adam's hand that was still rubbing Cologne's hair. He could not help but remain silent for a moment before taking out his pocket watch and taking a look.

"It's almost ten o'clock."

"Well, my parents should be free at this time, let's go now."

Colon nodded, then saw Adam wave, and then all the candy in the store went into his bag.

"Adam, are you going to... with these candies?"

"I'm actually not very satisfied with the surprise I prepared for tomorrow."

Adam patted his bag:

"But now this surprise should be tempting enough - dozens of boxes of candy from Honeydukes! Although people are not so keen on Honeydukes now, they will be happy if they can get it for free, right?"

"What about the rest?"

Bernard blinked as he looked at the bag. Adam probably wouldn't take the extra effort to pack the candies on the shelf.

"leftover……"

The candies displayed in the store were not a small number. Adam thought for a moment and looked at Cologne and Eugene:

"If the Hufflepuff team gets a good grade this time, use it to encourage them. If they get a bad grade, use it to comfort them."

Eugene couldn't help asking:

"So what counts as a good grade and what counts as a bad grade?"

“First and second place are good results, third and fourth place are bad results.”

"..."

So it will be given to the Hufflepuff team no matter what, right?

"Don't tell other teammates in advance~"

As Adam closed the door, he put his finger to his lips in a gesture of secrecy.

"Aren't you going to lock it?"

Uther noticed that Adam had left his door unlocked.

"No, I've locked it."

The blockade of the ingot brand is comprehensive, including Honeydukes... Oh, by the way, it’s better to change the name of the store now to avoid misunderstanding.

Adam moved his fingers, and the sign above the shop that read "Honeydukes Candy Shop" turned into the cursive "Dream Dessert Workshop". The words on the entire sign looked like they were made up of candies in gradient colors.

There is a line of small print below:

——We will wholeheartedly offer you a sweet and dreamy experience.

Chapter 112 Mrs. Mercy

"Dream Dessert Workshop... Why does this name sound similar to the magic trick shop of the Weasley twins?"

Bernard couldn't help but say.

"It doesn't matter. They are all our own businesses anyway."

Adam waved his hand dismissively.

"But this sign is really beautiful... It makes me want to drool just looking at it."

Uther was still very supportive.

“I guarantee that once the shop is finished renovating, you’ll be drooling even more!”

"Oh?"

Uther's eyes lit up:

“You plan to decorate the store with desserts?”

"Well, that's a good idea, but I still choose to decorate the store to look like it was made of desserts, rather than actually decorating the store with desserts."

In Adam's original conception, the Dream Dessert Workshop would indeed be built into a place like a candy house in a fairy tale. Biscuits, candies, bread... these could be food ingredients or building materials for Adam. Anyway, the physical properties of the sweets created by Gan can be adjusted as desired.

In fact, Adam had considered this idea when preparing for the banquet, that is, even the utensils for holding the food were replaced with food.

But Fred and George said that if the table was delicious and tasty, people would want to eat it no matter how hard it was, and it might be eaten down before the banquet was over. Adam thought that made sense, so he changed the table into pure chocolate and strengthened it three times. Unexpectedly, the Gryffindor table still had a missing corner in the end...

When checking everyone's satisfaction with the food through the remaining food, Adam looked at the missing piece in silence and could only sigh that maybe someone just liked it.

Facts have proven that even if edible containers don't taste good, there will still be people who can't help but want to take a bite. When the restaurant officially opens to customers, there will be all kinds of customers, and there will definitely be more messes.

Even if Adam made those decorations as hard as carbonyne, if someone still wanted to try, even if they couldn't get rid of a piece of icing after chewing for a long time, other customers would not have much desire to buy the candies on the shelves that had been chewed.

After weighing the pros and cons, Adam reluctantly gave up his original plan, but he did not give up completely. He could get a bigger piece of land and create a paradise made of desserts, with the main feature being that every plant and tree there is made of desserts.

How about calling it [Dream Dessert Paradise]? Or [Dream Dessert World]?

"Oh! We're here!"

Cologne's voice brought Adam back from his thoughts, and when he looked up he saw a not-so-big store in front of him.

They were now at the edge of Hogsmeade village. Although the exotic animals shop was not big, the large fenced area at the back belonged to the exotic animals, and the shop was merely a place for trading.

Cologne took the lead and trotted to the door of the rare animal shop and pushed it open:

"Dad! Mom! I'm back!"

"Cologne? Why are you back?"

Along with the doubtful voice, some hurried footsteps gradually approached. Adam followed Bernard into the store and saw a woman wearing a headscarf, an apron, with her sleeves rolled up and gloves on, jogging towards them with a giant purple toad in her arms.

Obviously, she is Colon's mother, Mrs. Mercy.

"Did something happen in Hogwarts?!"

Mrs. Mercy glanced around and found that not only her son was there, but also several Hufflepuff students.

After some recollection, Mrs. Mercy, who had just finished her busy work, remembered that today was the day before Halloween - it was also the day when Hogwarts students could come to Hogsmeade village, and she had signed for it before.

There was no way. Rare birds and animals were the inheritance passed down by Mrs. Mercy's parents. Mrs. Mercy grew up in Hogsmeade. When she was a child, Mrs. Mercy was rather...lively. She had never been interested in coming to Hogsmeade to play.

After graduation, even if Hogwarts students come to Hogsmeade to play, they will not come to places like Exotic Animals. The main business of Exotic Animals is the bulk trade of magical animals and magical animal by-products, not a pet shop like the Magical Creatures Shop in Diagon Alley.

Anyway, although she didn't like going home very much when she was a child, Mrs. Mercy was still very happy to see her son come back, and her son also brought friends back.

"Time flies so fast, and it's almost Halloween... Oh, you should have written me a letter in advance."

Mrs. Mercy placed the giant purple toad in the glass jar on the counter, wiped her hands on her apron, took off her gloves and threw them on the counter. Her movements were smooth and a little hurried, but her tone was not without excitement:

"Your father went out to discuss business with someone today, and your sister is conducting an inspection in India. I am the only one at home, and I have nothing prepared... What do you want to drink? Sorry, there is only black tea and coffee here--"

"It's okay, Auntie. We have prepared lunch. Leave it to me. Until then—"

Adam and his friends picked up the gifts in their hands:

“Where do we put this stuff?”

Hogsmeade Village is a gathering place for wizards. Unlike Diagon Alley, in addition to the shops, there are also a large number of wizards living here. Colon's family does not live in the exotic animals shop, but also in Hogsmeade Village.

After her son came home, Mrs. Mercy simply closed the shop and invited her son's classmates to her home for a treat.

……

"Cologne, isn't this a bad thing for us?"

Mrs. Mercy glanced at her son's classmates from Cologne who were lined up outside the kitchen, and whispered to her son:

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

"Let the guests cook lunch... why not let me do it! Even though it's a little rushed, I can still serve those specialties before you go back."

"It's totally okay, Mom!"

When Colon heard the word "specialty", he couldn't help but shudder. Starry sky pie, haggis, and beef pot pie were all acceptable before he had eaten Adam's cooking, but now they had been demonized in his mind.

What did Adam say...Once you have seen the sea, all other waters are but puddles; except...except Mount Wushan, all other waters are but clouds?

Ahem, anyway, he really doesn’t want to eat his mother’s “specialties” anymore, and it’s time for his mother to taste Adam’s cooking skills!

"Adam is a very good cook, and he doesn't need anyone else to help him... By the way, he plans to open a restaurant near our store in the future. If you think the food is delicious, why not recommend it to our customers to try it?"

Mrs. Mercy raised her eyebrows, sensing the implication of her son's words. Whether it was impolite to ask the guests to cook was secondary. The key point was that the dishes she cooked were not as delicious as those cooked by his classmates.

Come to think of it, after returning from her trip to Egypt, Kelly seemed to have mentioned that there was a classmate in Cologne whose cooking skills were very good. She had been thinking about him for a long time and praised him to the skies... Could that classmate be the one in the kitchen now?

Mrs. Mercy couldn't help but look towards the kitchen. After thinking for a while, she stood up and walked towards the kitchen. She wanted to see the cooking skills of her son's classmate and see if it was as perfect as her son and daughter said!

Chapter 113: The picture shows the dagger

"Mom? What are you going to do?"

"Shh-"

Mrs. Mercy turned to her son and gestured:

"I'm going to see how your classmate's cooking skills are."

Then Mrs. Mercy walked to the kitchen door. Seeing the three people at the door, she looked a little strange but didn't say anything. She walked straight past them and into the kitchen.

Bernard and the others were looking into the kitchen. When they saw Mrs. Mercy walk straight into the kitchen, they were about to say something when they heard a shout from inside:

"No stealing!"

What followed was the sound of a slender strip waving and a cry of surprise:

"what!"

"hiss--"

Bernard rubbed his teeth, while Uther and Eugene rushed directly into the kitchen.
