MTL - Harry Potter and the Badger Who Can’t Magic-Chapter 12 Fairy's Short Sword
Early the next morning, Mrs. Brown took out the Nimbus 2000 she had bought a few days ago and handed it over to Auston, telling him carefully.
"Remember, be careful not to be seen by Muggles, fly directly to Diagon Alley, and don't go anywhere else!"
Auston nodded.
"Have you brought your money?" Mr. Brown asked as he walked over, wearing a tie.
Allston patted the pocket on his trousers and said, "Don't worry!" The coins in the pocket rattled, containing fifty Galleons given to him this morning by Mrs. Brown and given to him at Diagon Alley the other day. There are seven galleons, and there are also copper nut and silver siko that are almost equivalent to five galleons. Now he has also become a small local tyrant with a full wallet.
Afterwards, under the worried and resentful eyes of the Browns and Sissi, he stepped on the broom and flew away with a swish.
Along the way, he carefully avoided the sight of Muggles, making the flight a little harder than the last time.
At Diagon Alley, he put his broom in a dragonskin bag with a stretching spell, and then hurried past Ollivander's Wand Shop, Mrs. Malkin's Robe Shop, and Lisbon Bookshop. Headed straight to a second-hand store with a dilapidated signboard.
Entering the store, there are no customers inside. An old witch greeted her, and Auston swept up a large pile of second-hand items from her—a pile of old first-grade textbooks, and some faded robes, a patina cauldron, an old The brass scales that are almost falling apart. As for the vials required in the notice, Mrs Brown works in a Muggle hospital, and the most important thing in their family is glass vials. There is also a telescope, and in the small drawer of Auston's room is a small astronomical telescope given to him by Mr. Brown's colleagues on his eighth birthday.
After sweeping all these things, Auston only spent three Galleons and one Siko in total. He insisted on paying one more Galleon to the old witch who entertained him. Auston withdrew his hand and asked mysteriously
"Ma'am, Garen didn't give it to you for nothing, I want to know how to get to the Boginbok store in Knockturn Alley."
"Oh, little sir, Knockturn Alley is a place full of evil. It is not suitable for a minor like you." Although the witch persuaded him, her shrewd green eyes still stared at Auston's hand. of Galleon, which makes her words very unconvincing.
"Is that so, then I'll have to say goodbye. Thank you very much for your hospitality." Auston smiled hypocritically, and gestured to put Gallen back in his pocket.
The witch was in a hurry, she quickly grabbed his hand and said, "Okay, I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"
After the witch explained the exact location of Knockturn Alley to Auston, she not only got a gold Galleon as she wished, but Auston also gave her an additional Galleon as a tip.
Auston put the things he bought in the store into the dragonskin bag, and followed the path that the witch showed him to find the Borginbok store.
Passing by a joke shop, he also went in and bought a lot of fun things to give to Sissi. Since the last broomstick incident, the little guy has ignored him for a long time.
After avoiding the many malicious eyes in Knockturn Alley, he finally found Boginbok, the largest store in Knockturn Alley. This is a store that sells magical items. Although there are many black magic items in it, there are also some good items of some value.
Auston forced himself not to look at the withered hand in the glass window, pushed the door and walked in. The store was spacious and dark. In the display cabinet not far from him, there were some random things in it, glass eyeballs, a string of luxurious opal necklaces, a pair of playing cards stained with blood, and there was a large black cabinet not far away. Auston thought, that should be the famous vanishing cabinet, the one that Draco Malfoy used to recruit Death Eaters into Hogwarts, and let Death Eaters in and out of Hogwarts like no one else. . He was still thinking in his mind, when Hogwarts had to find a chance to destroy the one over there.
Suddenly, a man came out of the back door. His greasy hair and wrinkled face made Auston look very uncomfortable.
"Ah, what a welcome, my first little guest today, I guess you must have sneaked in behind your parents' backs! Want to buy some cool black magic items?" His hair was as greasy.
Auston resisted the urge to vomit and said arrogantly
"Forget about black magic items. After all, my own collection is much larger than yours."
"Oh? It's more than me, so I'm interested in knowing which family's child you are!" His words aroused suspicion from Mr. Borgin.
"The Blacks! Haven't you heard of it? Mrs Lestrange is my aunt." Auston blinked a few times contemptuously. He knew that Bellatrix Lestrange was in Azkaban prison now, and that another Blake relative, Narcissa Malfoy, hardly ever leaves Malfoy Manor, and Auston didn't believe he could make it with them. own identity.
Mr. Borgin was deeply puzzled. He said to himself, "I've never heard of such a young child in Black's family. What are your parents' names?"
Auston rolled his eyes arrogantly.
"I'm here to buy things, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is not here to accept your cross-examination! If you want to see my father, you can find him yourself, but if my father knows that I'm here privately, I'm afraid I This pile of Galleons can't be spent today!" He patted his pocket as he spoke, and the coins in it rattled.
Mr. Borgin immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, "Yo! Look at me, we are so lucky, we forgot to talk to you about business! So, what do you want to buy, Mr. Black."
Auston cleared his throat and asked
"Do you have any weapons made by goblins, such as swords, knives, or something?"
"Ah? What do you want this for?" Mr. Borgin was obviously very surprised. He originally thought that the little boy wanted to buy a black magic item to trick his classmates into doing something bad or something.
Auston looked impatient, "This doesn't quite conform to your rules here, isn't it that you don't ask where you buy when you buy, and don't ask where you sell when you sell?"
Hearing Auston's complaint, Mr. Borgin obediently shut his mouth.
He took Oster behind the display stand, took out a large bag from the cupboard under the glass display stand, and pulled out a silver sword from the bag, the hilt of which was engraved with runes. He handed the sword to Auston and said
"Sixty Galleons, it's yours."
Auston took the long sword, took out all the Galleons in his pocket with the other hand, counted them, and the result was only fifty-nine. Auston was deeply regretful, why did he just give the witch in the second-hand goods store an extra Galleon!
Apparently, Mr. Borgin also saw that he was shy, so he drew another sword from the big bag. said
"If you're willing to buy this one, I can give you a little cheaper. How about fifty Galleons?"
