Chapter 1347? Eat Fast Food
In Diagon Alley, Alan and Hermione appear on a winding cobbled street with no end in sight.
This place is no longer deserted after being robbed of business by the Floating Void City. After the umbrella and the Muggles started trading, has this neglected and dilapidated wizard commercial street regained some vitality, although this vitality makes it It is no longer a wizarding commercial street for pure shopping.
Wizards took advantage of its convenient location in London and turned it into a logistics center for wizards and Muggles trading in Lunn. Large storage warehouses replaced the various shops in the past, and the floating docks built on the roof almost occupied the sky of Diagon Alley.
Some of the magic shops still remain in Diagon Alley, and the products sold in the shops have also changed styles: after stores such as bookstores and pet stores have gained a firm foothold in the floating city, the shops in Diagon Alley will cease to exist. , and those large-space boxes that have been fixed with the traceless stretching spell are piled up under the cargo racks to help open several open-air stores; shop window; Mrs. Malkin transferred the business center to Floating City, and the shop she left in Diagon Alley sold Muggle clothing part-time. Wizards, give them guidance on clothing collocation and purchase, so as to avoid the situation of forgetting that wizards wear women's clothing and high heels...
The small stall selling brownies that Alan and Death had tasted together before also changed owners and became a kind of fast food stall, but on the menu, those cakes decorated with fruits and flowers, chocolate, Desserts are gone, replaced by convenient fast food such as hamburgers and hot dogs.
"It's unpalatable... bah bah bah." Allen spat out the large piece of pineapple pizza that he took a bite out of in his mouth a little impolitely.
"That's why I said just now that you can't just buy this kind of unseen flavor just because of its size. It's safer to eat something you eat often." Hermione also held a piece of hamburger in her hand.
"Swap!" Allen squinted his eyes and snatched the burger that Hermione had also taken a bite of while Hermione was not paying attention, and handed over his slice of pizza.
"It's a good thing your floating city doesn't have one, otherwise those Italian immigrants will be mad again." Hermione saw Alan take a bite from the place where she just took a bite, and then looked at the gap on the pizza in her hand. Blushing, "If you are always so reckless, it is inevitable that one day you will really suffer."
"It doesn't matter, you will suffer when the time comes." Allen swallowed the hamburger he bit into and smiled at Hermione, "Isn't it fun to suddenly eat bad fast food?"
Hermione looked at Allen and suddenly realized that the other party's strong Ravenclaw temperament was a little lost, and subconsciously took a bite of the pineapple pizza in her hand: "It's even worse than a hamburger...Take it back."
"Don't..." Allen deliberately teased Hermione to take another big bite of the not-so-delicious hamburger,
Then when the opponent was mad, he nuzzled the snow-white tower towering high above the surrounding small shops with his mouth.
On both sides of the bronze gate of Gringotts, goblins in uniform hold a slender golden rod in their hands. Since Gringotts in Germany was looted and burned by Voldemort, Gringotts around the world have strengthened their defenses. Gringotts in the UK had conflicts with the Ministry of Magic because they blocked the Ministry of Magic's search before. They were worried that the Ministry of Magic would send spies to sneak in, so they added more guards at the door. means of detection.
"That's an honesty detector, a very primitive detection method, but it can effectively detect hidden spells and hidden magic objects!" Hermione muttered nervously, and she has now realized that Delphi's mother is Belle. Latrix Lestrange guessed that Allen envoy wanted to use Delphi's identity to justifiably take away Voldemort's Horcrux stored in Gringotts. She frowned and asked with some concern: "Ellen, even if we bring Delphi here, Gringotts may make things difficult for us and won't let us in. What's more, if we don't bring the children here this time, they will definitely trouble us and create obstacles for us... After all, the goblins Not dealing with Harris, because of Harris Bank, Gringotts' business in the UK is very bleak... This conflict of interests is obviously irreconcilable."
"We're just here to investigate the environment. There are interferences with direct divination, prophecy and teleportation spells. I haven't been here for a long time. I have to confirm the teleportation coordinates and try to open a gate to see the opposite world. ..." Allen picked up the pizza in Hermione's hand and changed it back, frowned and threw the top pineapple into the trash can, then took a big bite, the slightly less taste made him squint his eyes, " And we have to prepare before going in, because there are surveillance cameras everywhere.”
"I don't understand...we're just sitting here eating fast food, how can we find out?" Hermione noticed that beside the shiny bronze gate of Gringotts, there were several more goblins in uniforms of scarlet and gold than before.
"Hermione, with some magic, you can't just learn how to cast it, but also figure out when to use it." Allen moved his fingers, and an eyeball that was invisible to most people floated in the air.
Hermione tilted her head when Allen was casting a spell. She felt the familiar fluctuations of magic power. Hermione, who had also read the Nether scroll, recognized Ai's magic called the Mystic Eye.
This creates an invisible magical sense that can move unrestricted and can move in any direction, even out of the caster's line of sight. It can provide visual information to the caster, and what it sees is the same as the caster saw in the scene. Solid barriers will get in its way though, but it can go through small holes, or small spaces about an inch in diameter. The eye cannot pass through gates or similar magical portals. The caster must concentrate to use the arcane eye, and if the caster does not concentrate on it, the eye will cease to function until the caster concentrates again.
"But the secret magic eye is very fragile, and it will disappear with a slight touch. It can't pass the anti-thief waterfall if it enters the tunnel inside?" Hermione took a sip of the canned tea, and she was not used to the superior life for several years. This convenient drink frowned, and then suddenly she looked at Alan, "Alan, you seem to be planning to let us pick things up secretly, why do you want to bring Delphi again?"
"I need to bring Delphi on the next trip...I'll tell you later, I want me to see it now...This eyeball is not predicted to be easy to use, and I need to concentrate to control it..." Allen said, and his mind began to concentrate on controlling the secret magic eye, Control it through its perspective and fly directly towards the Gringotts gate.
This transparent eyeball quickly flew over the heads of these little goblins without any scruples, and passed through the silver door engraved with a poem that thieves must be punished. The defense method is very confident, so even if the defense is enhanced, it does not affect too much the hall where Gringotts first receives guests.
The hall was deserted and deserted, and many goblins were dangling on the high stools boredly, counting the thick gold coins on their desks over and over again. The goblins kept pace with the times. In order to better monitor and ensure safety, they learned from the Ministry of Magic and installed a lot of magical monitoring equipment in the corners of the hall to monitor the situation in the hall from all angles. There are only a few counters that are still busy, receiving only a few customers.
In front of an old goblin wearing round glasses, a tall, strong, stocky witch wearing a light blue main magic robe is very conspicuous. The material of her magic robe looks quite elegant and elegant. Full of elegance that did not match her temperament, after standing still in front of the counter, she took off the hood she was wearing on her head, and handed over a small golden key, which the goblin returned to her after careful inspection.
"Miss Millicent Burst, please forgive me for being rude, but for the safety of your account, I would like to ask, why is Miss Burst coming to withdraw money so frequently recently?" The goblin supported her Glasses, carefully looked at the wizard in front of him. As a goblin, he is naturally stingy, and he doesn’t want wizards to take away the money in the treasury. Moreover, from the perspective of safety, he must also maintain a skeptical spirit, but in the face of this ancient Respect for the family's customers, it's shown with great courtesy.
"Don't talk nonsense, I want to enter my family's vault." Millicent raised her fat chin aggressively, and reprimanded in an arrogant and domineering tone, but she was secretly annoyed: her father was attacked by the Ministry of Magic, although She was not shot to death, but she had to spend a lot of time in prison after being tried, and her family's business was blatantly squeezed out by Harris' umbrella group. Now she can only rely on her ancestors' legacy stored in Gringotts Come to live.
And since being dropped out of Hogwarts and transferred to Beauxbatons Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry in France under the introduction of Dumbledore, although board and lodging, tuition fees, etc. because the other party had a strong support from Nicolas in the past, did not need to spend too much money. , but she came to understand what fashion is among these French girls after she passed. In order to keep up with them in terms of her clothes and appearance on weekends, the atmosphere of comparison is even better than that of the UK. It would take a lot more time, money and energy from her than she had at Hogwarts.
Therefore, Millison had to return to the family treasury in England to withdraw money frequently when the family was frustrated, so as to maintain the appearance of the pure-blood family of Burst in the eyes of French wizards.
