Chapter 200 Harry: It’s stable!
The Leaky Cauldron.
From the outside, it was just a dirty and small bar. If Hagrid hadn't pointed it out, Harry might not have noticed that there was such a unique little bar on the busy London streets. place.
"You know, we always have some unique ways of hiding everything about the wizarding world from Muggles."
Hagrid explained to Harry with a smile.
There is no doubt that the door of the Leaky Cauldron must have been cast with some confusing spell. Even though Hagrid took Harry into the store, it still did not attract any attention from pedestrians on the roadside.
But to be honest, as a place with a reputation in the wizarding world, the environment here is really difficult for Harry to accept.
It's really a bit too dirty and messy.
Several old ladies were sitting in the corner, smoking long pipes while holding wine glasses, burping and bragging happily. The pungent smell of smoke made Harry frown involuntarily even as soon as he entered the door.
The bald boss, who looked like a shriveled walnut, was chatting with the mustachioed guest in front of him with a smile on his face. When he talked about the excitement, he couldn't help but beat the table vigorously, making a deafening sound.
However, as Hagrid and Harry entered the door, the noisy environment suddenly became quiet the next moment.
Hagrid seemed to know everyone here. He smiled and nodded to the people in the bar, and the bar owner pointed at Hagrid with his empty glass.
"Is it still the old rule?"
"No, Tom. I'm running errands for Hogwarts right now."
Hagrid's big hand like a cattail leaf just gently placed on the bar owner's shoulder, almost causing him to fall to the ground.
Fortunately, the tavern owner's body was still strong. After taking a breath of air-conditioning, he immediately turned his attention to Harry next to Hagrid.
"Wait a minute, does that mean this is who he is?"
Suddenly, everyone's eyes immediately focused on Harry.
"Oh my god, if you hadn't told me, I would have thought he was your nephew." The tavern owner complained to Hagrid with a smile, and then continued to Harry with an excited face: "Harry Potter - it's an honor. to!!!"
As he spoke, he held Harry's hand enthusiastically, and tears instantly filled his eyes.
"Welcome back, Mr. Potter, we have all been waiting for this day for a long time."
Following the tavern owner's statement, other guests in the tavern began to take action one after another, surrounding Harry with excited expressions as if they were meeting their idols.
With the sound of chairs clattering, Harry suddenly found himself surrounded by everyone in the Broken Ax Bar.
However, Harry didn't find it particularly difficult to understand their reactions.
After all, when Voldemort was making waves in the wizarding world and was unstoppable, it was Harry's appearance that made the Dark Lord disappear from sight.
Even though this incident had nothing to do with young Harry, in the eyes of others, Harry survived and defeated Voldemort.
Although it is an exaggeration to say this, for these people, he is their savior!
But more than these, what made Harry feel a little regretful was that Quirrell was not in the Leaky Cauldron at this moment.
I guess because my habits have changed so much compared to the original plot, the time I arrived at the Leaky Cauldron was obviously different.
So it's not too surprising that Quirrell hasn't arrived at the Leaky Cauldron at this time.
In this case, Harry felt that there was no need to waste time here anymore.
After all, even if he didn't meet Quirrell in the Leaky Cauldron, his plan would not be affected in any way.
Because he knew that Quirrell would definitely go to Gringotts today to steal the Sorcerer's Stone from Chamber 713 to create a new body for Voldemort.
So as long as he waits in Gringotts, he will definitely see Quirrell, and by then Hagrid must have left his own actions and will be talking to himself even more than now.
After spending another minute or two getting rid of the frenzied crowd, Harry finally walked through the bar with Hagrid, ready to complete the business of purchasing school supplies first.
Behind the bar door was a narrow alley. After walking a short distance, Hagrid began to count the wall tiles next to the trash can.
"Three dollars upwards - well, it seems to be two dollars further across. Who invented this curse? It's been so many years and I can't remember it every time I leave." He muttered in a low voice, "Okay Harry, stand back a little."
After Harry silently remembered Hagrid's actions just now, Hagrid's umbrella head tapped lightly on the wall three times.
Immediately afterwards, the bricks he knocked began to shake like life, and a small hole emerged from the center. As the vibrations continued to intensify, not long after, a wide road appeared in front of them. Archway, at the other end of the archway is a prosperous street with no end in sight.
Seeing such a magical scene appear in front of him, even Harry's expression couldn't help but show some changes.
At this moment, he finally felt deeply the strange charm of the magical world.
"Welcome to Diagon Alley, welcome to the wizarding world."
Seeing the expression on Harry's face, Hagrid smiled at him and continued walking forward with him.
Everything here was incomparably fresh to Harry.
The magic cauldron that stirs automatically and exudes a strange fragrance, the chirping owl shop that makes clear chirps from time to time, the "Nimbus 2000" model broomstick that shines under the sunlight, and the cabinets filled with of a loulou bat spleen, eel eyeball, parchment scroll.
After observing and visiting along the way, the two soon arrived at their first stop in Diagon Alley.
Gringotts.
It was a white building that stood tall above the other shops, with an imposing bronze door and even a goblin doorman in uniform.
This is the only bank in the magical world run by goblins, where you can save money or rent a vault. At the same time, these goblins also claim that this is the safest place in the world.
However, Harry was obviously skeptical about safety.
After all, the last Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which called itself this way, was almost in ruins by the end.
Voldemort and his younger brothers feel as if they are going home, and they come out every year to improve their performance.
Of course, the purpose of Harry coming here was not to question their safety, but for two other purposes.
One is to take out the huge inheritance from his parents, while the other is to actually explore the internal environment and make full preparations for the subsequent surprise attack on Quirrell.
The goblin standing as a guard at the door was probably half the size of Harry, and had a shrewd and dark face. Compared with normal people, the most special thing about these goblins was that their hands and feet were special. long.
Seemingly noticing Harry's obviously observing gaze, Hagrid explained in a low voice.
"Even though these fairies are not as tall as you, they are all top-notch magicians."
They are all magic masters. Didn't they also get stolen by Quirrell in the original plot? The stereotype is terrible.Harry complained silently in his heart, and then followed the other two goblins into a tall and luxurious hall.
There were about a hundred goblins sitting on the benches behind a row of long counters, although Harry didn't know exactly what they were doing.
But in Gringotts, everyone obviously has something to be responsible for, and Harry followed Hagrid silently to the counter in front of him.
"Good morning, I would like to help Mr. Harry Potter get some money from the vault, here is his key."
As he spoke, Hagrid took out his pocket and placed a golden key and a letter in front of the goblin named Griphook, and then continued solemnly.
"This letter is from Professor Dumbledore, about the item in vault 713."
Griphook put on his glasses, took the gold key and envelope, and checked them carefully before finally nodding and answering.
"Well, there's nothing wrong with the stuff. I'll take you to the two vaults underground."
Following the pull of the ring, Harry and Hagrid once again opened the door to Gringotts. Unlike the luxurious marble outside, the scenery in front of them was a slightly gloomy one.
In the narrow stone corridor, only torches provided lighting. Under the stone corridor was a steep cliff and a small floating railway.
As they walked, Hagrid mysteriously explained to Harry.
"Listen Harry, I know you must be curious about what is in vault 713, but that is an absolute secret." As he spoke, Hagrid lowered his voice again and continued in a low voice: "This is about Hogg. Woz's secret, Dumbledore trusted me, so he asked me to do this."
Okay, okay, I got it, you're the tight-lipped Hagrid.
Harry couldn't help but be speechless. Although he knew that Hagrid didn't mean it, even the information the other party just said had revealed most of the secrets in vault 713.
But that's not bad, after all, Harry knew that what Hagrid came to take away this time was the Sorcerer's Stone.
"Don't worry Hagrid, I won't ask questions that shouldn't be asked."
Harry's sensible speech couldn't help but make Hagrid, who felt a little guilty for hiding it, let out a heavy sigh of relief, and then a happy smile filled his face again.
"Let me tell you, Harry, you are a really reliable kid!"
While the two were chatting casually, Griphook also stood by the small railway and blew his whistle, and then a small cart rushed towards them.
As the three of them got on the trolley, they began to gallop along the maze-like winding passage at an extremely fast speed. The speed was so fast that Harry wanted to know the way to the future. It is difficult to memorize it.
But even in such harsh driving conditions, Harry still noticed a giant dragon crawling on the ground at the end of the road.
If he remembered correctly, this was the important power that the goblin had to ensure the safety of Gringotts.
A tamed white dragon!
Even if he only glanced at it from a distance, the terrifying pressure still gave Harry goosebumps all over his body.
Obviously, this thing is not something he can deal with with just his muscles.
At least not now.
But this also made Harry curious about how Quirrell broke through the dragon's defenses and reached vault 713.
However, before they had time to think about this problem, the trolley everyone was riding in had already stopped in front of a small door.
Hagrid, who was already a little motion sick, turned pale and leaned on the ground with his eyes closed while holding the car, while Griphook led Harry to unlock the door in front of him.
As a thick green smoke spread out from the small door, the scene in front of him immediately made Harry take a deep breath.
Even though he had already expected it, after seeing the mountains of gold and silver stacked together like a hill, his heart still beat violently.
"According to the contract, all the properties in front of you are yours."
Griphook smiled and handed over a small bag containing gold coins.
"Does that mean it's okay if I take them all now?"
Harry breathed a sigh of relief after coming back to his senses, then took the gold bag and asked.
"Of course there is no problem, but storing your assets in Gringotts and enjoying a certain interest rate every year is much more cost-effective than withdrawing them all."
Apparently after hearing that Harry planned to take out all the inheritance at once, Griphook's tone became visibly anxious.
He took over and was responsible for this order. If Harry withdraws all his assets now, his expected benefits will be reduced.
This is undoubtedly something no wise elf would want to see.
"But after all, it is such a big sum of money. If it is not in my own hands, I always feel that it is not very safe."
Harry reached for the gold coins and pretended to be embarrassed and said to Griphook.
He clearly knows how sharp these goblins are usually, and their flaws will only be revealed when their greed is involved.
And because of his childhood experience with the Durres family, even if he expressed such doubts, he would obviously not be questioned by Hagrid or Griphook.
And after seeing the change in Griphook's attitude at this moment, Harry knew that he was heading in the right direction.
"Don't worry, I can guarantee that Gringotts is definitely the safest bank in the wizarding world."
After seeing that Harry was still silent, some cold sweat began to appear on Griphook's forehead and he quickly continued to explain.
"I have powerful goblin guards patrolling around Gringotts all the time, and I also have a young Ukrainian Iron Belly to prevent anyone with ulterior motives from sneaking into the underground. And you can rest assured that within five hundred feet of Gringotts We have all set up a counter-curse of disembodiment. If there is an accident, the intruder will definitely be unable to escape."
Apparition counterspell?
After hearing this crucial information, Harry's eyes suddenly glowed with a subtle light and he stopped taking out money.
A bag of funds is enough for his school expenses, and more importantly, his purpose of gathering information has now been perfectly achieved.
At least he already knew that as long as he was within five hundred feet of Gringotts, it was absolutely impossible for Quirrell to use Disapparation to distance himself from him.
Steady it!
In this case, you can already start the next step of planning.
