CP49 Tumbledown Alley and Vanishing Cabinet
As if he didn't have to worry about violating the school rules that Muggle items were not allowed to enter the school, after sending away little Hermione, Chu Xiaobai pondered for a while, and suddenly came to such a conclusion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is the Harry Potter plane, there is not only one means that can be used to transmit video information, in addition to using worldly cameras to shoot, there are also some means in the wizarding world that can achieve the same effect, remember those cards that come with the chocolate frog? Remember those Hogwarts portraits?
From the standpoint of wizards, those are just portraits or pictures, but from the perspective of ordinary people, isn't that the so-called video video?
In short, in fact, as long as you go to Diagon Alley and buy a wizard's camera, you can probably fulfill the promise to Hermione.
Anyway, on the way back to the world, you have to pass Diagon Alley, so it's better to solve this matter on the way. Thinking like this, the next day, Chu Xiaobai came to Diagon Alley again.
"Huh? Here it is. Coming out of the fireplace and seeing the scene in front of him, all of a sudden, Chu Xiaobai found a problem that he seemed to be on the wrong path.
There are always all kinds of customers in the Leaky Cauldron Bar, some of whom are poorly dressed and even look like beggars sleeping on the streets. However, no matter how the guests are dressed, the atmosphere in the bar can still be lively, and even a little noisy.
And the bar where Chu Xiaobai is now is obviously a little different.
A pile of shriveled hands on a mat, a pair of bloodstained playing cards in a glass case, a glass eyeball that was always staring at people, a mask with a terrifying expression on the wall in the corner of the counter that seemed to be looking at people, a shelf with wine bottles on the back shelf, and strings of sharp iron hanging from the ceiling, did not look like a candlestick for lighting at all, but rather like a murder weapon.
The customers in the store were all wrapped in big cloaks, and even when they sat at the same table and chatted with each other, they did not take off their hats so that each other could see their faces clearly. There were some people in the bar talking, but they all sounded like mosquitoes.
Both the setting and the atmosphere are not at all like a bar, but rather like an underground junction for some secret society.
Feeling an indescribable sense of depression, and also wanting to find out where he was for the first time, Chu Xiaobai hurriedly walked out of the bar and came to the alley outside.
There was no need to ask passers-by, seeing that this alley was full of black magic shops, Chu Xiaobai guessed what kind of place this was. That's right, it's Tumbledown Alley just a corner away from Diagon Alley.
In the original book, Harry Potter once came here unexpectedly because he got lost, and if Hagrid hadn't suddenly appeared and found the lost Harry and took him away from here immediately, he really wouldn't have been able to escape from this alley.
"Let's get out of here." Thinking that this alley was full of black magic shops, and there should be no magic cameras that he needed, Chu Xiaobai had the idea that more things were better than less, and planned to leave here immediately.
However, just as he was taking a step, it suddenly occurred to him that he could go to the Boginbock store?
The largest of the many dark magic shops in Tumbledown Alley is the Borgin Bock Magic Shop. Although most of the shopkeepers who deal in black magic goods are not good people, perhaps because the store is relatively large and does not want to easily damage their own signboards, Mr. Bogin is quite principled when he runs the store.
All in all, going to the Boggin Bock Magic Store to shop and spend money, safety is still guaranteed. As for whether it will be slaughtered as a fat sheep by Mr. Bogin, it depends on the customer's own ability.
There is no danger, and you can see the black magic goods, which is the first reason that prompted Chu Xiaobai to change his mind. As for the second reason, it is because there is a very important magic item disappearing cabinet in the Boggin Bock magic shop.
There are two Vanishing Cabinets, one in the Requirement Room at Hogwarts, and the other in the Borgin Bock Wizardry Shop.
In the sixth installment of the Harry Potter series, Draco Malfoy repairs the Vanishing Cabinet in the Boggin Burke's Magical Shop and connects it to the Vanishing Cabinet in the Room of Requirement. He then used this route to lead a large group of Death Eaters across the defenses into Hogwarts, attacking from inside the castle and inflicting fatal damage on Dumbledore.
With Hermione's relationship, after the war between wizards broke out, Chu Xiaobai would inevitably stand on the side of Hogwarts. Even in order to keep the maximum combat power of his side, he felt that he should get his hands on the Vanishing Cabinet first and eliminate the possibility of the Death Eaters entering Hogwarts to assassinate Dumbledore in advance.
What's more, Dumbledore was very good to him, and the two were barely friends.
While pondering, he turned his head and walked towards the Bojin Bock Magic Shop. Perhaps it was because he thought of the great blow to Hogwarts' strength after Dumbledore's death, which led to a series of bad consequences, and Chu Xiaobai's body had a feeling that no one should enter.
Thanks to this momentum, along the way, he was not found fault by any dark wizard, and he walked into the door of the Boginbock magic shop smoothly.
There was no one in the shop, only all sorts of eerie goods, and the goods in this magic shop were even more terrifying compared to the decorations in the previous bar. A withered head soaked in an unknown solution, an eyeball that still spins freely on a clock, a strange wooden box with a large mouth full of sharp teeth, and even a nondescript looking necklace with a label warning on it: Don't touch it! Cursed. Nineteen Muggles have died in possession of it.
Not daring to touch any items, Chu Xiaobai could only honestly ring the bell placed on the table.
A man appeared at the counter hunched over, his hands repeatedly combing the oily hair that hung down his face.
"Hmm, a wizard, I mean, a normal-looking wizard, what do you want to order?" Mr. Borgin's voice and his hair were greasy, with a hint of playfulness in them.
Among the wizards who came to Tumbledown Alley, there were few people like Chu Xiaobai who showed their heads like this, just a glance, Mr. Bojin confirmed his identity This person in front of him is definitely not a guy who is keen on black magic, either he accidentally broke in, or he is a conformist academic, in short, this guy is not a customer who needs me to treat well.
"I'm looking for something interesting." Feeling Bokinbock's attitude, Chu Xiaobai replied quietly.
The more you say, the more you get wrong. Chu Xiaobai's cherishing words like gold finally made Bojin Bock's attitude a little better. Well, it's also possible that he expressed his willingness to shop. No one is going to have a hard time with the shiny Golden Gallons, is there?
"Okay, then I'll introduce you to a few good things. Let's look at the one first, it's called the Glorious Hand, and put a candle on that hand, and the candlelight is only for the person who holds it. It's a good helper for thieves and looters. Boginbock gestured to the dry hand on the cushion in the glass case next to the counter: "By the way, if you went to the bar just now, you should have seen a similar thing over there." I've got to tell you the truth, I'm the real thing, the one at the bar, it's just an ordinary human hand. Well, if I'm not mistaken, it must have been left behind by some poor creature who had no money to pay the bill and talked nonsense in a dispute a few years ago. ”
It's just that he ate an overlord meal and said a few more angry words, and he was chopped up? From Bo Jinbock's words, Chu Xiaobai directly felt the danger of overturning the alley.
Not only out of disgust for this place, but also because the shape of the Glorious Hand was already a little disgusting, Chu Xiaobai unconsciously turned his gaze away.
"That one is a weeping bell. Every full moon night, there would be bursts of crying from the chiming bell, and anyone who heard the cry would have a nightmare, and if the dreamer dreamed that he was injured, he would have the same wound on his body. Similarly, if he dreams that he is dead, then he will really die. Following Chu Xiaobai's line of sight, Bo Jin Bock introduced another item.
In just a few minutes, Chu Xiaobai saw several dangerous commodities that could kill people at every turn under the introduction of Boginbock.
Sure enough, the Bojin Bock Magic Shop, which is famous for its many dangerous goods, is really not the place where he should be, thinking so in his mind, Chu Xiaobai's face unconsciously showed a hint of resistance.
"Well, it looks like my new guest can't get used to these heavy items for the time being, so are you leaving? Or may I introduce you to something less heavy-mouthed? The corners of Boginbock's mouth curled slightly, and there was disdain in his eyes.
Kindness? Golden opportunity! Hearing Boginbock's words, Chu Xiaobai's heart moved.
"Who said I can't get used to it, since I'm here, I have to buy something. Well, that's the cabinet. Pretending to have a fierce expression, Chu Xiaobai pointed to a large black cabinet in the corner.
In the store, only this cabinet is tall and wide enough, the other cabinets are either too low or have no doors, in short, only its size and shape look a little like the disappearing cabinet in the impression.
"It's a vanishing cabinet. Although something is wrong with it now, I will say that it is indeed a rare treasure. If you really want it, I'll give it three hundred gold galleons. ”
"Three hundred?"
"That's right, no counter-offer."
"Isn't it just three hundred, I bought it." I thought that the disappearing cabinet would cost me a lot of money, but I didn't expect it to be so cheap. Don't dare to delay more, Chu Xiaobai hurriedly paid for this cabinet, even if he knew that he had actually been wronged by Bo Jinbock.
