"Are you going to buy the Hogwarts school uniforms, my dear?" As soon as I entered Mrs. Mokin's robe shop, a short and fat witch wearing purple clothes came up. Before the Granger's family could open their mouths, the witch took the initiative to introduce: "We have many kinds of clothes here, and there are many people buying them. Now there is a young man trying on clothes inside."

Behind the store is a young girl with short silver hair standing on the footstool. A witch is measuring her physical data with a tape measure that can run by herself, while muttering in a low voice: "You young people should buy a little bigger when buying clothes, because you grow very fast, so you have to leave room for growth in many places."

Of course, when the witch spoke, she did not notice that the girl she was measuring looked at her with an extremely depressed and resentful look.

"Okay, move faster, who will come first?" Mrs. Mojin said in a blazing manner after confirming that Hugo and Hermione were both freshmen this year.

"Madam, please give me priority." Hugo said and made a gesture of invitation. Then Hermione led her down to the back of the shop, and then stood on another footstool next to the silver-haired girl according to the instructions. Then she put on a robe and pinned her length with a pin.

"Are you also a freshman at Hogwarts this year?" The girl asked directly when she saw Hermione standing beside her.

"Yes." Hermione first raised her arm as required by Mrs. Mokin to make it easier for her to measure her arm length, then turned her head slightly and said to the young girl next to her.

"That's great, then we should be classmates in the same grade this year." The girl said, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Veneto, Vittorio Veneto. To be honest, before I received this letter, I didn't expect that there was such magic in the world."

This girl is Veneto, a ship girl summoned by Hugo before. She is not a chance encounter here now, but an encounter carefully created by Veneto and Hood. After all, if you want to stay with Hugo naturally after entering the school, it is very important to meet before entering the school.

Although this name, which was originally a place name, seems a bit strange as a girl's name, because Europeans originally did not have any certain rules for naming, Hermione just felt that this girl was a little special and did not think much about it in other directions.

"Did you come alone?" After a few conversations, Hermione looked at the lonely Venetto and asked, because from her clothes and what she said just now, she could see that she should have been from an ordinary family like herself. It was hard for her to imagine an 11-year-old girl who came to such a completely strange place for the first time without her family's accompanying her.

"I'm the only one!" Venetto said with a smile, "After all, I only have one sister in this world, and she has some important things to deal with recently, and she can't accompany me to buy things. So I can only come alone."

"Ah, I'm very sorry." After hearing Venetto's words, Hermione immediately apologized from the bottom of her heart. "I don't know these things--"

"It's nothing. I haven't seen my parents since I was born, so I'm used to it." Veneto waved his hand quite casually and said. This kind of freedom comes from the heart, because as the girl who was a warship before, Veneto had no such thing as at all, and it was impossible for her to have parents. But when she saw this scene, Hermione felt even more sad.

"It's already tried, my dear." At this time, Mrs. Mokin's words saved Hermione, who seemed a little embarrassed because of the recklessness just now. She quickly jumped off the stool, then greeted Venetto and ran back to her parents.

"Then - see you at Hogwarts." When Hugo stepped on the bench and started tailoring her clothes, Venetto just finished buying clothes, so after exchanging sight with Hugo, he took the clothes he had bought in his suitcase, and then dragged the box out of the room. When she left the room, she greeted Hermione.

"That child is so pitiful." When Hugo went to tailor her clothes, Hermione had already walked to her mother and talked about the content she had just chatted with Veneto. After learning about Veneto's situation and that she was a freshman like Hugo, Mrs. Granger also broke out in her motherhood after entering school this year. "If you meet her in school, if you can help her, please help her."

It was already noon when the purchase was over. After raising his hand and looking at the pointer on the watch, Mr. Granger felt it would be more appropriate to just finish lunch in Diagon Alley and go back. As a result, when they arrived at a small bar selling simple meals on the roadside, they found that it was meal time now, and the table was full of people.

"It seems we can only eat outside." Mr. Granger said with a little frustrated, because he was a little curious about the foods that the wizards who could release magic were different from ordinary people in terms of foods. After all, if you only look at them by the naked eye, he felt that those foods were no different from the foods he usually ate.

However, both novels and movies show that the food wizards usually eat is not much different from that of ordinary people. Instead, those snacks seem to be completely different from those of ordinary people, and are more representative. So Mr. Granger will not have much regrets if he didn't eat here this time.

For Hugo, this trip to Diagon Alley can be regarded as a journey with great harvest. The only regret is that because his time is not suitable, he has not met any classmate recorded in the novel except Hermione.

When they opened the passage again and walked through the broken cauldron bar and came to the street that belonged to ordinary people, they happened to see the girl Veneto, whom they had just seen when they were buying clothes, was sitting at a small table outside a restaurant on the side of the road for dinner, and opposite her was a young woman with long blonde hair and blue eyes.

"Good noon, Miss Granger." After seeing Hermione come out, Venetto waved desperately at Hermione. This also made the Granger family clear and neatly go to the edge of the big table.

"This is my sister Hood, Victoria Hood." Venetto introduced that in order to facilitate living among ordinary people, ship girls often give themselves a more normal name with a name with a name. However, when they name themselves, they often do whatever they want, just embed their ship name into their name. As for whether the ship name is in their own surname or name, it doesn't matter.

After hearing the two obviously different surnames of the sisters, the Granger family immediately imagined a lot of stories about them except Hugo. If they were all written, they would be more than enough to write at least two or three soap operas.
