The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 557 Esmeralda Quirrell

Since the opening of Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes, the two brothers Fred and George have been making a fortune, which is why Ada asked this question. She wanted to use the twins' money to advance her plan.

Of course, as a well-known miser, Ada would not waste this hard-earned Galleon. In fact, the twins did not need to take out their gold coins, she just needed a chance.

"Have you got your eye on something?" Fred asked. "If you ask us nicely, we'll give you your share. If it's not enough, we'll add ours."

"I don't need money. I'm not interested in money now," Ida said. "I haven't touched money for a long time."

Ida scratched her head while she was talking, imitating the horse language perfectly. Fred and George on the side sneered at her horse language. I don't know who broke the Knut in two.

"Hey, I heard about this person when I was studying at Hogwarts. It is said that she likes to string every coin on her ribs." George said slowly, "Ada, do you know this person?"

Ada immediately looked angry. Who else could George be talking about other than her, Ada Grandet.

"Next time, please say my name directly. No need to hide it." Ada admitted generously, "The plan I just came up with does not require Galleons. What I need is a string of numbers that the goblins will pay attention to."

"Numbers?" The twins were a little confused. Do numbers have any special meaning to the fairies?
"Yes, I am going to sneak into Gringotts." Ada said solemnly, "I am not kidding, I want to take a look at Lestrange's vault to confirm whether that extremely important thing is inside."

It's not enough to just break into Gringotts, but it also sounds unrealistic to break into someone else's vault. Engraved on the door of Gringotts is a sentence: Thief, you have been warned, beware of the consequences that may come instead of treasure.

"When did you change your last name to Quirrell?" George asked with a smile.

Quirinus Quirrell, a man who dared to enter Gringotts, a tough guy who dared to stick Voldemort on the back of his head. A real man never looks back at the explosion, because Voldemort on the back of his head looks for him. He is so considerate and helpful.

Ada subconsciously touched the back of her head. The fact that there was an extra face behind her head was really too scary!

What she was going to do was actually similar to what Quirrell was going to do. The similarity was that both of them had to take away things that did not belong to them from Gringotts. The difference was that Quirrell was going for the Philosopher's Stone, while she was going for the Horcruxes.

However, Ada is more likely to succeed than Qi Luoyong, and she is quite confident in her plan, but there are still some loopholes that need to be improved.

The first thing to figure out is where the Lestrange family vault is. This is the premise of the entire plan. Without the specific location of the vault, everything is empty talk.

The second thing is how to sneak into Gringotts safely. It is said that the anti-theft magic there is very powerful.

Ada stood up suddenly, walked around the cabin with her hands behind her back, thinking over the entire plan over and over again, looking for loopholes in it.

Fred and George's heads moved back and forth as Ida walked, just like two oscillating electric fans. After a while, the two brothers couldn't stand it anymore and thought they would vomit if they continued to move.

"Sister, please, please stop shaking." Fred said, "I feel dizzy."

George couldn't stand it anymore. He held his head with both hands and said, "We are wrong. We will do whatever you say. We will never say you are the second Quirrell again."

"It doesn't matter whether my last name is Quirrell or not," Ada stopped in the middle of the hut, "What's important is that we gather at the entrance of Gringotts tomorrow morning, see you there!"

With that, Ada walked out. The twins were dizzy at the moment, and neither of them noticed Ada walking out. When the two brothers realized what was happening and ran out of the store, there was no trace of Ada in Diagon Alley at night.

The twins looked at each other in silence. They only knew that Ada wanted to attack Gringotts, but they didn't know Ada's specific method of action. ...

The next morning, the streets of Diagon Alley were quiet. It was just time for the shops to open, and there was no one outside. After the twins gave Verity a few instructions and handed the entire shop over to the young witch with short blond hair, the two brothers hurried to Gringotts.

Although the twins were still a little confused, they arrived at the appointment at Gringotts on time because they believed in Ada's judgment.

Following the winding cobblestone streets, the snow-white tower standing tall above the small shops soon appeared in front of the two brothers. It was Gringotts, the wizards' bank.

Standing at the bottom of the marble steps, Fred and George didn't have to wait long before they saw a beautiful young witch approaching them. It wasn't until the witch came closer that the two brothers recognized it as Ada.

Faced with the brothers' doubts, Ada gave answers readily.

The reason why the twins didn't recognize Ada at first was because of her makeup change. Ada never liked to wear makeup, relying on her natural beauty, but today she had done a lot of work and was wearing heavy makeup.

The heavy makeup makes Ada look more mature and beautiful, full of temptation. As one of the four major magics in Asia, makeup can not only change a person's face, but also change a person's overall temperament.

In her previous life, Ada once witnessed an unbelievable scene with her own eyes. A middle-aged man with unshaven beard turned into a beautiful woman after careful dressing up. She was a beauty that could make people lick the screen.

After the three of them met victoriously on the marble steps, they walked together towards the bronze gate of Gringotts.

Guarding the entrance to Gringotts were staff from the Ministry of Magic, standing on the left and right, each holding a thin golden rod. It was a metal detector, similar to the security check in the Muggle world.

Ada and the other two stood in front of the door, letting the security guards move the golden rods around them. Soon, the security guards waved and let them go. Although Ada came to Gringotts to steal, she was not stupid enough to bring any dangerous goods.

If possible, Ada didn't want to trigger the alarm before reaching Lestrange's vault, she needed someone to lead the way, and this could only be done by the goblins inside Gringotts.

After passing through the bronze gate, a silver gate comes into view. On the two doors are engraved poems about thieves being punished.

Behind the silver door was a tall marble hall, where about a dozen goblins were sitting on high stools behind a long counter. It was obvious that Gringotts was not yet ready for business.

At this time, an older goblin walked towards Ada and the other two. He looked carefully at the three people who were much taller than him, and then said, "Excuse me, how can I help you?"

Although the wording was polite, the attitude of this goblin was not good and was quite cold. He was just asking as a routine matter.

Fred and George wanted to talk, but when they remembered that they didn't know the content of the plan, the two brothers did not speak, but looked at Ada, as if telling the goblin who his real client was.

Ada coughed lightly and said in French: "I am Margaret from France. I need a place to keep my gold coins. These two Mr. Weasley recommended this place to me."

The short goblin stretched his neck to get closer to Ada's face so that he could see her clearly. The twins felt a little uneasy, after all, the wanted order for Ada had not been cancelled by the Ministry of Magic, which might add unnecessary trouble to today's trip.

Unlike Fred and George who secretly held their wands, Ada also had her wand ready, but she was not panicking at all. If the disguise and sneaking in didn't work, then she could just break in and catch a goblin to cast the Imperius Curse.

"Excuse me, what did you say?" the older goblin responded in French. His French pronunciation was very standard. He could understand what Ada said, but he pretended not to understand.
