Hogwarts Card System

Chapter 236 Recognize Even Turned into Ashes

The changes that Ted has brought to the wizarding world have gradually emerged.

The biggest change is undoubtedly the salted fish net, the palm-sized facade of the salted fish house, which makes it crowded.

The exchange of information and magic items brought by the salted fish net brought a little vitality to Diagon Alley.

If there is a dedicated person to count, it will be found that in the past two months, the GDP of Diagon Alley has increased by 25%!

Many stores have found that their business seems to be getting better, but they don't realize that this is the customer flow brought by Salted Fish House.

And Knockturn Alley had a bigger reaction than Diagon Alley!

For many changes in the world, those who respond most quickly are those gray areas that wander between black and white.

They are well-informed, have the best sense of smell, and are very adaptable to change.

The flow of people brought by the House of Salted Fish not only benefited the merchants in Diagon Alley, a large number of people also radiated to Knockturn Alley not far away.

Not all of Knockturn Alley is full of dark wizards, but it is a gray area, and you can buy a lot of things that are not common in the market, and they are not so formal, so it's hard to say whether they are legal or not.

Because gray isn't legal, but necessary, it's a place Aurors and Strikers won't touch.

Because of this layer of convenience, there is also black hidden under this gray.

Not to mention all kinds of contraband and so on. Before the start of school last year, there was a scene of smuggling intelligent creatures from other worlds.

The Ministry of Magic did a sweep that time, but it was over when the sweep was over.

Aren't those shops all there? Aren't those bosses still alive and well?

Business has to go on.

And because of the large flow of people, more buyers and sellers are attracted.

The benefits of Knockturn Alley are several times that of Diagon Alley.

In just these two months, he has already become famous.

Even dark wizards like France and Germany come here to sell some products, or to buy some things they need but are not allowed to sell on the market.

This also led to many things that were not seen in the past, such as the head.

Ted has to track down what's going on with this thing.

It doesn't matter!

Because I have a head in my hand, it is much easier to find someone.

Although those in the black market have some hiding and anti-tracking skills. But not enough to see in front of Ted.

Not only does he know how to divination, but he can also use psychic powers to show traces in the air.

Ted followed a pale yellow line that no one else could see.

When people arrived near Knockturn Alley, Ted found a corner and performed an invisibility technique, and then began to remake himself.

Normal wizards cannot change themselves, which is a very high-end transformation technique.

Tad's Transfiguration isn't at that level, but he can use psionics to disguise himself.

A few seconds later, a lanky young Caucasian wizard in his twenties walked into Knockturn Alley.

...

Sherman is a second-hand dealer, he is a wizard from Eastern Europe.

Originally, his business was very good and his family was quite happy. But Mao Xiong's sudden collapse caught everyone off guard, including the wizards.

In Bear, wizards are under the direct leadership of the Red Magic Council.

But the upper level suddenly collapsed, causing everything to be in chaos. Including wizards.

There was chaos in Eastern Europe for a whole year, and many wizards died because of it.

A group of werewolves even took the opportunity to bite Muggles and wizards wantonly in the local area. Because the organization had completely disintegrated, everyone was too busy running for their lives or hiding.

Now it finally calmed down a bit, but the world has changed, the situation is quite different.

Sherman's previous business lines were completely destroyed.

The source of goods is gone, the route is gone, the channel is gone, and the buyer is gone!

He had to go to the Far East himself once, and even encountered danger several times, before he received a batch of things from a group of traffickers who specialized in smuggling oriental magic items.

But people are far from their hometowns, and now Mao Xiong has collapsed, and these wizards have become wild dogs without a home.

Therefore, the goods in Sherman's hands were severely undervalued.

Risking your life to get something, only to buy a month's worth of bread? Even if you want to eat a piece of meat, you have to think about it for several days, why? !

Sherman gritted his teeth cruelly, stomped his feet and slipped away, arriving in the British Isles.

I have been to the Far East, so why not go further west.

But how? All crows are black.

Are the traitors of Great Britain noble?

Same low price!

But how much is acceptable.

Because they are pressing the price of the stranger, not the price of the homeless wild dog.

However, a pottery head that Sherman was very optimistic about failed to sell.

People don't accept it, saying that they don't feel the magic power and are worthless. Only other stone and jade figurines were bought.

After all, it was brought by Sherman all the way, and it cost money, so it is really not reconciled to lose it like this.

I heard that there is a salted fish net that sells things very well, and you can find buyers for any weird things, so I tried it.

No, it's in Ted's hands.

...

At this moment, Sherman's eyes were staring blankly ahead, and his pupils were out of focus.

A hand resting on his head was the disguised Ted.

Ted sneaked in silently to subdue this guy, and then guided his memory through language and psychic powers, and then found out the origin and whereabouts of this terracotta warrior.

It turned out that there were three terracotta warriors, the pottery one had only a head, the stone one was missing an arm, and the jade one was intact.

The last two were taken away by Bo Jinbok.

"Hey, do you think it's a coincidence?"

As Ted babbled, he began to erase some of Sherman's memories.

It's nothing to be a second-hand dealer, just to support the family. But don't go to the east, blur the line for him.

Although I don't have the ability to go to the local area to stop this kind of behavior, I can still make some contributions.

Bojinbok's store, then you have to do some preparations.

The last time Ansu took advantage of the chaos to add fire to his business, after that the defense level was raised there.

Ansu quietly watched it several times, but was not sure.

This time I have to prepare.

Ted erased all traces of his appearance, put the second-rate dealer Sherman back on the chair, and let him lie on his stomach on the desk, so that he would think that he had fallen asleep inadvertently.

Then Ted leaves...

I sent a few old witches who looked at me young and recommended forbidden potions to me.

Those potions look like rubbish at first glance, this is a fat pig to be slaughtered!

Besides, these medicines are addictive, and drinking too much will damage your health.

There is even an old witch who wants to take advantage of it!

I Cao! You can be my grandma at your age!

Ted glared directly, scaring away the old hag who was selling banned drugs to him.

Eyes are the windows to the soul, and eye contact is an excellent way to perform psychic powers.

That is to take into account the broad daylight, it is not good to break the legs of these old witches directly, otherwise they have to let them know what gambling and drugs are inseparable!

After leaving Knockturn Alley, Ted was going to find a place to change his appearance, but suddenly he turned his head and saw Hermione.

Wearing a wizard's robe, she excitedly ran towards the Salted Fish House.

Could it be that school is about to start, so come to do some shopping?

While Ted was still thinking, Hermione seemed to have a sense, and suddenly turned her head to look over.

He glanced at Ted first, then turned his head and continued walking, as if he felt that something was wrong, then turned his head to look at it, the more he looked at it, the more wrong it became, and he stopped walking with a frown.

Ted was planning to find a corner here, but Hermione came over and asked cautiously, "Ted?"

Ted used spiritual power to change his voice: "What Ted? You got the wrong person!"

As a result, Hermione suddenly confirmed it, and grabbed Ted's sleeve: "Are you still pretending to me?! I recognize you even if you turn into ashes!"

The little lioness glared!

Don't say it, it really means Professor McGonagall!

Professor McGonagall is called Big Hermione!

"Cough, don't, wait for me to change it back." Ted quickly admitted his mistake.

...

After a while, the two sat down at the Salted Fish House.

"What are you doing with this outfit?"

"It's not convenient to come out to buy something, you know."

"Be careful, you are a celebrity now. If you are found out, it will be very troublesome."

"I know I know~" Ted agreed repeatedly, "By the way, what are you here for?"

"Ha, I'm here to buy something!" Hermione showed the money in her hand.

Five £10 notes!
