Study Days at Hogwarts - Chapter 1363
Chapter 1363 In the name of revenge
Britain, the Leaky Cauldron.
Since the rise of Voldemort, the Leaky Cauldron has not had so many guests for a long time.
But the bar owner, Old Tom, was very unhappy. He was carelessly wiping his wine glasses, and secretly observed the foreigners in the shop from the corner of his eyes, as if he was very worried that these outsiders would cause him trouble.
Old Tom really wanted to find an excuse to drive away all the customers in the store, but years of experience in running bars told him that he had better not do that, otherwise he would definitely suffer bad luck.
What happened in Hogsmeade the night before yesterday, although it didn’t appear in the “Daily Prophet”, old Tom knew about it.
Like most wizards, he was secretly listening to the broadcast of the wizard watch station, so he could naturally guess that the group of people in front of him were all black wizards from abroad.
Looking at the way they were angry when they spoke, it was not difficult to guess how much they hated the Death Eaters.
It’s best not to make trouble with them now, especially since most dark wizards are not reasonable guys.
But old Tom was really worried that a Death Eater would suddenly come to the shop, and something terrible would definitely happen.
However, sometimes what you are afraid of will come.
As soon as he handed a glass of hot whiskey to the French guy at the bar who spoke poor English, he saw a familiar figure appearing at the door, which made Old Tom’s heart go up in his throat.
The person who came was a bad embryo named Rudolph.
It is said that because I am a pure blood, I was invited to join the Death Eaters.
Ever since Rudolph joined the Death Eaters, he would come here for a drink every time he was free, and he still didn’t give money.
Now I don’t know if Rudolph is crazy, how dare he come here at this time, is he dying?
If those people knew that he was a Death Eater, he would have to be killed by these outsiders.
Under the restless gaze of old Tom, Rudolph actually glued an advertisement with unknown content on the wall of the bar directly with the glue spell.
After pasting the advertisement, Rudolph used the tip of his wand to make a sharp noise, attracting the attention of all the guests in the bar.
Then, under Old Tom’s growing mouth, he cleared his throat and said to everyone present: “Everyone, there is good news recently that Hogsmeade will reopen to the public, but please remember that it belongs to The black market opened by the Dark Lord, no one can trade without the permission of the Dark Lord…”
Before Rudolph could finish speaking, it seemed that someone had punched him in the stomach, and his whole body curled up on the ground in pain like a boiled shrimp.
The next moment, sharp screams sounded in the Leaky Cauldron.
“Sorry, I didn’t expect his reaction to be so intense. I thought Death Eaters would be tougher.”
The blond Frenchman helplessly spread his hands towards everyone, and then moved the tip of his wand to the fallen Death Eater.
The miserable scream sounded again.
“It’s such a beautiful singing voice, it reminds me of those mermaids out of the water.” Another middle-aged wizard closed the bar door for him kindly.
All right!
The Leaky Cauldron Bar suddenly became lively. Everyone had accumulated a lot of anger before, and now they finally have something to vent.
Looking at Rudolph, who was still in high spirits, now screaming like a pig, Old Tom behind the bar felt weak in his hands and feet. He didn’t dare to deliver a letter to the Death Eaters, let alone leave the bar.
Old Tom was well aware of the dire consequences that would lead to himself, so now he had to put on a straight face, as if nothing had happened, and continued to wipe the glasses behind the bar, and occasionally handed these lawless guys a glass of concoction. drinks.
Looking at the annoying ghost who was tortured to death by the Cruciatus Curse, old Tom felt an indescribable joy in his heart, but he was also worried that Rudolph’s death in the Leaky Cauldron might get him into trouble.
“What the **** is going on in Yaxley’s head?”
Since the Death Eaters attacked Hogsmeade at night, their reputation among dark wizards abroad has been completely bankrupt.
He actually thought that there would be a dark wizard going over there. Did he treat everyone else as fools?
In fact, not only Old Tom thinks this way, but even the dark wizards abroad think this way. They have already learned about what happened that night from certain channels.
The famous Poshvar is dead.
It is said that it was besieged by a large number of Death Eaters and Dementors.
Many dark wizards who stayed in Hogsmeade also lost their lives because of this. Even those who surrendered to save their lives were controlled by the Death Eaters using the Imperius Curse. Give half of your wealth to save your life.
This is nothing short of naked robbery.
For dark wizards from all over Europe, this is absolutely unacceptable.
They didn’t care who was killed, after all, it had nothing to do with them, but what the group of Death Eaters did really disgusted them.
What’s even more ridiculous is that, with such a bad reputation and such ridiculous practices, they still want them to join?
Could it be that he was controlled by the Imperius Curse and joined?
Really took them all for idiots.
This incident directly became the laughing stock of everyone.
“I intend to leave the UK in the near future.”
The blond wizard from France took a sip of fiery whiskey, and calmly talked about his plans to the colleagues at the same table who he met some time ago.
“That group of Death Eaters can’t believe it at all. You should have heard that they took many people’s things directly for themselves. The first time they did it, the second time. God knows when they will be short of money again. Will it secretly attack us?”
“We came to England to make money, not to be robbed by those despicable and shameless people.” A brown-haired middle-aged wizard said through gritted teeth, “I’m planning to leave too, but I just can’t swallow this breath, take it easy The black market ruined that bunch of crap.”
Everyone was silent.
If the black market is still under their control, it will be a paradise for all dark wizards in Europe, but unfortunately, the paradise only exists for less than a week.
It is even more impossible to regain the black market. After all, this is the lair of Death Eaters, and there is also the famous Voldemort. Especially after what happened the night before, no one would do that kind of thing.
“I’m going to make one last fortune before leaving England, and teach those trash a lesson.” A relatively young black-haired wizard at the table next to him suddenly said, “Since they dare to attack late at night, why can’t we? “
“That’s a good idea!” the blond Frenchman echoed, “Anyway, when the time comes to leave England overnight, those Death Eaters will not have the courage to leave England to trouble us even if they clamor, let alone they know who attacked the black market ?”
“Count me in, if I don’t take revenge, I really can’t swallow this breath.” The brown-haired wizard said murderously.
“Just how many of you?”
“Is there a problem?”
“No, I think we should act in a planned way.” Another young wizard also sat down and joined the conversation.
“Like…” the blond Frenchman asked.
“For example, first torture that **** eater to find out the situation in the black market, or we can pretend to go back to the black market and continue trading there, and wake up at night…” The young wizard stretched out his hand and wiped his neck.
“Since the **** eaters have done that, we don’t need to be polite to them. Anyway, I will leave the UK after this time. I need to make up for the loss.”
The dark wizards around looked at each other in blank dismay. If they really wanted to leave England, they could indeed make a fortune before leaving.
Anyway, the Death Eaters have already attacked them, so you don’t have to be polite.
As the number of dark wizards who wanted to make a fortune before leaving increased, many people gathered at the table of the Frenchman. Many black wizards naturally wanted to come over to share a cup when they saw so many colleagues joining. soup.
No one would let go of such an opportunity, not only to teach those unruly Death Eaters a lesson, but also to make a fortune for themselves.
“Or, if there is a chance, we will even **** those Death Eaters.” Suddenly someone suggested, “If too many people participate in the operation, I am worried that there will not be enough things in the black market, but I heard that they can join the Death Eaters.” The apprentices are all pure-blood wizards, and their families are usually richer, since we have done it, it is considered to avenge those dead friends.”
“Yes, revenge, revenge for Poshvar!”
They quickly found a suitable excuse for their next robbery.
Old Tom behind the bar stared at this scene dumbfounded, suddenly had an ominous premonition, and saw a spell flying towards him.
“Don’t kill him. Don’t kill the Death Eaters over there, just use the Imperius Curse to control it. We’d better not arouse the vigilance of the Death Eaters before we act.”
An operation called revenge, which was actually a robbery, quickly worked out a detailed robbery plan in the Leaky Cauldron, and all the dark wizards were very patient about it.
Because their goal is not limited to robbing the black market, but also intends to rob wealthy Death Eaters. Even if most of the Galleons of the pure-blood wizard family are stored in the Gringotts vault, that does not mean that there is no valuable money in their family. something.
No, quietly on the contrary, no one will keep all their wealth in the vault.
When the foreign dark wizards gathered in the Leaky Cauldron Bar all dispersed and went back to make final preparations, the young dark wizard who was just one of the focus of the crowd secretly abducted into a remote house.
“Things went better than expected.”
Another voice came from the living room, it was the French guy who just started booing. Surprisingly, his English was quite smooth.
The most unbelievable thing is that the few dark wizards who first proposed to sack Hogsmeade village all gathered here, and they knew each other by looking at this posture.
This can’t help but smell a conspiracy.
“We’ve all been taking Felicia after all.”
“However, I really didn’t expect that we would go to Azkaban to rob the prison one day.” Sirius, who had recovered his normal appearance, couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
“I’m more worried about You-Know-Who.” Lupine frowned, “Although it’s not just us, but…”
“According to Albert’s latest news, Yaxley did not tell the mysterious man what happened to Hogsmeade, and he obviously didn’t want the mysterious man to know, at least until the matter was settled, otherwise he would be in the mysterious man’s house.” He looks very incompetent in front of him.” Kingsley explained, this is one of the reasons why he is willing to agree to take action, as long as Voldemort is not involved, the remaining Death Eaters will not be able to stop them, not to mention the Death Eaters will be enough I’m so busy, I don’t have the time to care about what happened in Azkaban.
“What about Hogsmeade?” Arthur asked his own question, “If we didn’t participate in the operation, would those outsiders suspect that it was a trap and give up the plan directly?”
“Use the Imperius Curse to control a few dark wizards, that’s enough. Anyway, there are compound potions.” Moody said as a matter of course.
Since saving Hagrid, everyone realized that the Imperius Curse is really useful when fighting against the mysterious man.
“Anyway, those dark wizards from abroad are not good guys, let them bite dogs with Death Eaters!” Sirius had no psychological pressure on this at all. On the contrary, he thought Albert’s proposal was very good, and if he could capture Ah Zkaban, releasing those innocent and imprisoned guys, will be an unprecedented feat for the entire British magic world, and it is also of great significance to combat the mysterious person.
