I'm a wizard with a proof from Hogwarts

Chapter 7 Diagon Alley and Gringotts"



"vomit--"

"Ahem...I...Wori..."

Looking at Rudy, who had a doubtful expression on his face, Snape's paralyzed face showed a rare fluctuation.

Of course, this wasn't because he showed any compassion or couldn't bear it. He did it on purpose. On the one hand, he wanted to punish this brat.On the other hand, even he wanted to see the difference in Dumbledore's hope for the future of England.

Now it seems that I must have taken the potion for too long last night, and I have really lost my mind. I actually believe what that old thief Dumbledore said.

"I...I said, can you give me a warning when you break down the door and play this again next time? I really want to vomit now..." Just when Snape was reflecting on himself that he was really getting better and better. , Rudy's voice suddenly came to his ears.

Different from before, the words "surprise" were almost written on Snape's face.

'What's going on with this kid?The appearance just now didn't look like he was just pretending. It must have been his first time apparating. '

'But, he is just a child, can he actually relieve the discomfort caused by Apparition in such a short period of time? '

Although he was surprised in his heart, in order to maintain his cold image, Snape still looked back at Rudy calmly with a poker face and said word by word: "Since everything is okay, let's get started quickly."

Rudy, who had just felt that he was about to adapt to the pleasure of steroid bungee jumping, was stunned when he heard Snape's words, and three question marks slowly appeared on his head.

....Anything else?

After saying this, before he could react, Snape turned and walked forward.

Rudy rolled his eyes speechlessly and looked at the new environment around him. After thinking about it for a moment, he gave up the foot oiling plan 2.0.After all, the surrounding environment here does not look like it is in the center of London...

That's right, after the brief spin just now, the train station hall that was in front of us has long since disappeared.What replaced it was a long and narrow alley that could barely accommodate three or four people walking side by side...or should I say, a long street?

Looking around, both sides of the entire street are lined with some weird shops, restaurants and the like.The streets are paved with cobblestones, giving it a different era atmosphere.

Rudy quickly followed up with Snape, who had already walked a long way. While looking curiously at the various shops on both sides of the road, he asked: "Old... ah, that professor, I haven't asked you for your name yet."

"Also, where are we?"

Snape, who was walking in front, slowly stopped and turned to Rudy and replied: "Severus Snape, your future Potions Professor."

"As for this, it's Diagon Alley."

Rudy recalled the word 'Diagon Alley' carefully, and finally found it in his few memories. It seemed to be a magical market?A place where wizards hang out.

He struggled with the choice of words and was about to continue asking them if they came here to buy the things written in the letter.Snape, who was slightly impatient, simply didn't give him a chance to ask questions, and continued to walk towards a tall white building in front of him. As he walked, he said: "You need to buy things for the new students, so let's do it." Come here, it’s that simple.”

While Rudy was looking around at the various shops around him, he kept asking Snape some questions about the shops, such as "Is the food sold in this shop delicious?" Of course, Snape basically didn't answer him.

While they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of the white building. Rudy only had time to see the words 'Gringotts Wizarding Bank' written on the top of the door before he heard Snape say "Follow me" and then continued to stride in.

Rudy complained depressedly about the tour guide's lack of responsibility, and then could only continue to use his two short legs to keep up with him.

Following Snape, Rudy acted as if he had never seen the world before, asking Snape everything: "Professor, Professor! Where is this place? It looks so awesome!"

Snape replied casually with a cold tone: "Gringotts, I'll get you some money."

Rudy's eyes instantly lit up: "Take the money!!"

They passed through a shiny bronze door and entered the interior of the white building.On both sides of the gate stood two goblin guards wearing scarlet and gold uniforms. When they saw Snape and Rudy coming in, they immediately bowed respectfully to them. They looked emmmmm, how should I say, very professional.

After passing by the two goblin guards, the two walked quickly and soon arrived at the second door.

Different from the first door, this door was silver, and there were several strings of words engraved on its door. Before Rudy had time to see clearly what was written on it, Snape had already walked in on his own.

There was no other way, Rudy could only give up watching word for word and quickly trot to keep up with him.After the two passed through the second silver door, they entered a very spacious marble lobby.About a hundred goblins are sitting behind the long counters on both sides of the lobby. Some are registering something in the big ledger; some are holding scales to weigh coins and calculate the weight; some are leaning in front of the eyepieces to carefully examine the pigeon eggs in their hands. The same size gem.

Rudy stepped forward with his eyes wide open, admiring the 'pigeon egg' that was particularly bright under the light, and couldn't help but said: "It's awesome, how much is it worth?"

The goblin, who was holding the gem in his hand and constantly testing it, subconsciously replied: "Oh, it depends on its quality, but I feel that it should be able to sell for at least... hmm?! Who are you!?"

"Go away! Don't hinder my work, or I'll call the guards!"

"Oh, you're so stingy. Let me have a look. I won't break it for you..."

"What nonsense are you talking about! This is a treasure belonging to the goblin! How can I just lend it to you?"

...

After chatting with this goblin for a long time, and finally seeing that the goblin really wanted to call someone, Rudy gave up and could only mutter "cheapskate" in his mouth and continue to find Snape's location.

Strangely enough, given Snape's personality, he should have come over when he had an argument with the goblin just now and dragged him away.But now the fact is that the person is missing?

Well, this lobby is splendid, and the floor is made of clear marble that can reflect human figures. It is not easy to find Snape in this place... After all, there is nothing dark among the thousands of gold...

Rudy, who jogged over to call him, unexpectedly discovered that Snape seemed to be talking to someone.

Um?Let me go, the one opposite him is so tall!This must be more than 3 meters, right?

He's just a little fat. If the flesh on his body were evenly distributed, and if that big beard was white, my dear, wouldn't this be the real version of white beard? !

Wait, there seems to be a smaller one beside him.

He looks young, and seems to be a human cub.... Wait, I seem to be the same now...

When Rudy walked in, he heard that Snape's sinister tone was "firing" unscrupulously, but as if he was aware of his arrival, Snape stopped attacking, turned around and glanced at him, flicking his black robe. He wrote "Follow me quickly" on his sleeve, and then walked towards the goblin counter in the center of the lobby.

When passing by the two people who were "confronting" with Snape just now, Rudy was about to see which hero had such magical skills that he could fight the old bat in two moves, but he saw the man standing opposite him. Look down on your own giant.

Rudy: ...

As for the human cub next to the giant, with messy hair, rustic clothes, and these round glasses, it looks dull... isn't this the so-called protagonist?

What's it called?

Oh, by the way, Harry Potter.

"I'll say it again, come here right away!" During the two minutes he was writing, Snape had obviously finished chatting with the goblin at the counter. At this time, the two of them were waiting for Rudy to go over and complete the formalities.Seeing that he was still lingering here, I thought he was paying homage to the 'famous Potter', so he sounded a little unhappy.

Saying sorry, Rudy nodded apologetically at Hagrid and Harry, turned around and trotted towards Snape.

Seeing him running away, Harry asked Hagrid curiously: "That... um... professor just now? Right?"

Hagrid shrugged, not knowing how to tell Harry about his parents and Snape, so he simply followed Harry's words and nodded and said: "Well... yes, that's right, he is Your future Potions professor."

"His name is Snape, Severus Snape."

"Don't look at him like this. Although he looks a bit...well, inaccessible, he is actually a very powerful potions master."

Harry looked curious. Don't get me wrong, he was simply attracted by the potion.

After all, he is a child who grew up in an ordinary family and came into contact with the magical world for the first time. What attracted him most was the magic and potions in fairy tale books.

Harry, who fantasized about becoming a Potions Master one day, suddenly thought of a question. This master seemed to dislike him?

"But, I think that professor doesn't seem to like me very much?" After all, he was an unprepared child. As soon as he had a question, Harry immediately turned to ask Hagrid, his most trusted "good friend". (After all, in his eyes, Hagrid is the man who took him out of his 'hell life')

Hagrid was at a loss for words for a moment. He racked the ink in his brain and managed to come up with a reason: "Well, that's it."

"Professor Snape is a serious person, he looks at everyone like this, you know... His eyes are quite scary sometimes... Once he almost made the little wizard cry with his eyes. "

As expected, Harry's attention was attracted, and he immediately shrank in horror, even looking at Rudy with a slightly panicked look: "Then...where is the child just now? I mean, the one who was following the professor. "

This was also the first time Hagrid saw Snape with a child. As far as he knew, Snape was not married...

Unable to answer, Hagrid could only say casually: "Oh, forget about Professor Snape. We still have a tight schedule today. After we got the money, we still have to buy books and teaching aids for the new semester. You do you remember?"

Sure enough, Harry's attention was drawn again and he was immediately led astray by Hagrid in excitement.

Rudy, who trotted up to Snape, took a breath and lamented the frailty of his young body. He also noticed that Snape seemed to have been staring in the direction where Harry and Hagrid left.

emmmm, it seems there is some hidden mission~

Hum hum, I, Mr. Lu, am not a famous detective for nothing, let me dig it up~

Unfortunately, before he could speak, the goblin lying on the counter in front of the two people spoke first: "Hello, respected Mr. Pendragon, may I ask..."

"Oh! No...wait, this is it!"

After shouting that something was wrong, the goblin immediately jumped off the counter, walked up to Rudy with two short legs, bowed and said respectfully again: "Dear guest, Gringotts is very happy because of your presence."

"I am the general manager of Gringotts Wizarding Bank in Britain, George Chichikov. I will personally take you through all the procedures you need to do at Gringotts today. Please come this way." (Pinchy emoticon.) )

Rudy looked at the thing in front of him in bewilderment, wearing a smart little suit, with small glasses on the bridge of his long nose, and tried to connect it with the goblins in his memory... It was not a group of long-haired monsters. A cute little girl with wings and a delicate face?

But the thing in front of me with two slender ears and a grinning fang is obviously different in species from the goblin in my memory!

And on the way in, didn't Snape tell him that goblins are very proud?Glancing at the goblin manager who was still respectful, and then at Snape who was also a little confused next to him, Rudy's little eyes seemed to ask, "Professor, didn't you say that these goblins regard money as life, no matter who comes to the bank to withdraw money?" Their enemies?"

Snape shook his middle-parted hairstyle awkwardly and coughed: "Hurry up, we still have something to do."

The goblin named Chichikov immediately stood up and made a greeting gesture, then took the lead and walked towards a passage on the right side of the lobby. He also whispered guidance on the way: "Oh, of course, let's do the first step first. Such business, distinguished guest, please follow me this way and be careful of the steps..."

The two people, one large and one small, following behind the goblin had particularly wonderful reactions at this moment.

Snape felt that Dumbledore's old fox must have some secrets that he had not told him, and he must ask clearly after returning. This kid named Rudy Pendragon must not be simple. (Even he didn't notice that Harry, who he had just met, was forgotten in his mind)

But Rudy is different. He knows that the reason why the goblins are so respectful to him is probably because of the so-called 'bloodline' in his body. Although it is difficult to identify the authenticity of this thing at present, after all, even if King Arthur really existed, it is already about 1500 years ago. people [-] years ago.

What he really cares about is the name of the goblin general manager in front of him...

Good guy, cunning Chichikov... Brother Teng, is that you!Has this become so popular abroad?
