Volume IV: Wills and New Identities
"I'm sorry, Miss Holly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoWe have only been informed of the part that is relevant to you, and the entire Will will will not be published until all the testamentary heirs appear at the same time. In other words, you can now only get a portion of your inheritance that is rightfully yours. We don't know who your parents are, but maybe your guardian will know part of it. Please go this way. The fairy replied unhurriedly.
"Uncle Snape?"
"I know part of it, but it's not what you should know right now, and I'll tell you about it when you do. Until then, you'd better not come to my words, including the elixir of truth and the receptive. Until then, you'd better keep up. ”
"Okay, then tell me what I can know now. After going through several checks, Holly finally entered the waiting room, and said impatiently.
"Before you do that, please verify your identity. A drop of blood is fine. ”
When Holly's blood soaked into a parchment document that looked like it had been around for some time, the hidden text on it gradually emerged, but there were many blanks in the middle, probably related to another heir. Thinking of this, Holly was shocked, it turned out that she still had brothers and sisters, and I didn't know who that person or those people would be...
"In July 1981, we, the parents of Holly Lily Porter, in sound state and state of mind, hereby declare that this is our last will. All the property, while dividing one-tenth of the wealth into two, is passed on to our descendants. The seats of the Wizengamot and related institutions relating to the Potter family are passed to Holly Lily Porter, and our daughter, Holly Lily Porter, on her eleventh birthday on July 31, 1991, shall formally inherit the above estate, and the remainder of the estate shall be transferred when the full will is published.
In the unfortunate event of our death, Holly Lily Potter's custody will be transferred to Severus Snape and Elena Lovegood. We are confident that these two will help Harley grow safely before her fourteenth birthday. ”
"Above, Miss Holly Lily Potter. No, it should be called Countess Holly Lily Potter by now. You can summon me at any time if you have anything in Gringotts, you can call me Fili. The leprechaun bowed, and then exited the VIP waiting room.
"Alright, don't be in a daze. It's time to get things done. Snape grabbed Holly and walked out the door. "First go get the money, and then, there's a couple of things to do. ”
Back in the hall, Holly had to find another idle leprechaun and let him lead him to his vault.
When he came to his vault No. 688 and saw the pile of gold coins inside, Holly finally understood why the previous will mentioned that the tenth of the money would be divided equally, probably if all the money was divided equally, he would definitely fall into his comfort zone and not think about other things.
It was only when she fumbled up and down but didn't find any pockets that Holly finally understood that there was something wrong with her outfit - not carrying a bag was the biggest mistake she made when she went out today. Thinking of this, Chu Chu, who was asking for help, turned her eyes to the black-robed man behind her.
And then. A small cowhide bag was thrown over.
"So small?"
"Try it yourself. With that, the man threw a large handful of gold coins into his pocket, but the pocket showed no sign of bulging. "The Traceless Expansion Spell must be learned before the seventh grade. ”
Loaded enough gold coins for a year, the passenger trolley did not immediately return to the ground, but slid deeper into the ground. In the deepest 13 vaults, there is a dragon guarding the door. After passing through the dragon, the elf opened the third vault from front to back, and stepped aside.
"Please come in, Countess Holly Lilly *** and Sir Severus Snape. ”
Walking into the vault full of golden light, Holly realizes that he still underestimates the wealth here, in addition to being used as a floor to cover layer after layer of gold galleons, there are also many valuable magic tools and some old-looking parchment rolls. Snape walked over to a box, took Holly's hand, and pressed her index finger against it.
"Ah," the tingling of her fingertips relieved Holly from the vault full of gold, and the thing that stinged her—the seemingly ornate red box inlaid with roses—slowly opened, revealing its contents—a ring encrusted with roses on a black velvet background.
Holly carefully took out the ring, compared the ten fingers of his own hands, and finally put the ring on the little finger of his left hand. When the ring is set on the finger, it instantly becomes the size of the finger, and the roses on it gradually bloom, petal after petal, the color changes from white to red to black, until finally a six-petal blood-red rose flower appears. At the same time, there was a lot of information in Holly's head. It took a long time for the red-haired girl's face to regain a trace of blood. The girl pondered for a moment, and the ring on her hand disappeared from its original shape, leaving only a ring wrapped around a few leaves.
"It looks like the next few days are busy, and there are so many things to see. The girl thought as she rode back to the place in the car.
After a long ride in the car, the contrasting duo finally stood on the sunny street outside the Gilling Court.
"You go buy your own clothes, and I'll take care of my business. After buying clothes, go to Ollivanders to buy a wand. There's no way that old guy could pick out a wand for you before I arrived. Also, your current name is Holly Parker, so it's best not to give out your real name. Snape turned, heading down another seemingly dark, dilapidated path.
"Where's Madame Morkin's robes store?" the girl shook her head around, and finally found a place in a corner that resembled a normal-world ready-to-wear store. Probably that's it, if it's not someone to say hello again.
"Hello, anyone?" Seeing that his inference was correct, Holly pushed open the door of the robe shop and leaned in.
"Do you want to buy a Hogwarts school uniform, my dear? A stocky witch dressed in purple asked with a smile.
"Yes, I'm going to --- uh -- three plain overalls (black) and a plain peaked hat (black) that I wear during the day—"
"Proper gear for first-year students, right? Alright, stand this way. Those two boys just now really didn't give me peace of mind, and they quarreled so loudly with me. By the way, who came with you, or are you someone's child? Why haven't I seen you before? Children of the magical family began to come to Diagon Alley to buy things when they were young, and Muggle-born children were accompanied by their parents. ”
"Uh... I don't know what kind of person I am... My guardian said I'll tell me when I'm old enough—" The girl said, only to find that Madame Morkin didn't care at all what she said, but kept measuring and drawing, as if to record the size or something.
