197. Let's get down to business
Scott looked down at the unfolded parchment in his hand.
[Aaron?] Doherty, born March 25, 1972, is an Aries.
Disappeared in May 1989...... ]
Scott looked at it for a while before recording Aaron? A brief biography of Doherty's life before her disappearance is read.
He looked at Sawanna again.
As the surname indicates, the girl was born into a wizarding family in Northern Ireland.
Moreover, there seems to be something special about this family.
Although the girl did not write about this peculiarity in detail, thinking of some information on the parchment, and the peculiarity of the girl's magical powers, Scott still saw some clues.
"Your brother didn't go to school at Hogwarts?" Scott asked the girl softly.
Sawanna nodded, "Yes, our family doesn't have a tradition of coming to Hogwarts to go to school, and I'm the first. ”
"Do you practice homeschooling?" Scott asked again.
The girl looked at him and nodded again.
But Scott could see the hesitation before she nodded.
But he didn't ask any more.
"I'll give it a try, though I'm not too sure."
He pulled out a new piece of parchment from the shape-shaped lizardskin pouch around his waist and pulled out his own pen.
He set aside the parchment that the girl had given him, extracted the key words from it and wrote them as known conditions.
This arithmetic divination soon came to an end.
Scott's final result was a number [3].
"It's a little weird."
He closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, then looked at Sawanna again.
"My conclusion is that your brother is still alive." He said with a frown.
A flash of joy immediately appeared on Savanna's face, but when she saw Scott's expression, she asked with some trepidation, "Is there anything strange?" ”
"Aaron's body, consciousness, and spirit are not unified."
Scott pondered for a moment before explaining.
"Well,[3] this number tells me that Aaron's body is asleep, his consciousness is half-asleep, but his spirit is very active."
He hadn't figured out what was going on after thinking about it for a long time, and he almost judged that his arithmetic divination was wrong.
But seeing the somewhat enlightened expression on Sawanna's face after listening to the explanation, Scott suddenly understood that his divination should not be wrong.
It seems that Savanna didn't tell him the truth, and she should know something about Aaron's condition.
But this is ultimately a private matter, and Scott has no idea to delve into it.
He's just a guy who collects money and does things.
"Thank you, Scott."
Sawana took two gold Galleons out of her pocket and placed them on the table, then cleaned up her belongings on the table.
"Goodbye, Scott."
She glanced at Scott again, and after staring at him for a second, she suddenly turned around with a red face and walked quickly out of the empty classroom.
Scott raised an eyebrow and watched her back disappear out the door.
With a mature soul, he certainly understood what the subtle abnormalities of the girl might represent.
But it's a pity that the other party is just an 11-year-old girl, and in his eyes she is a child.
So he shook his head and quickly put the matter aside.
At this point, the Eddie and Weasley twins run in.
Eddie was still holding a bag of food in his hand.
"How'......"
Eddie put the food in his hand on the table and immediately laughed when he saw the two gold galleons on the table.
"It seems that Miss Doherty is very pleased with this arithmetic divination."
He grinned and reached out to pick up the two gold Galleons.
But Fred, who was quick-eyed, took the gold in his hand first.
"Oh, lovely Kim Galleon."
He looked at the gold coin in his hand with a fascinated gaze.
"No matter how many times you watch them, they're all so fascinating."
"Hey!" Eddie sarcastically said, "You're greedy like those goblins in Gringotts!" ”
Fred glanced at him, puffed up his chest, gestured at the height difference between the two, and said proudly, "Eddie, have you ever seen a tall and handsome goblin like me?" ”
George laughed along.
Eddie blushed with rage, he only admitted that Fred and George were a little taller than him, but he refused to admit that they had anything to do with the word handsome.
Fred and George thought that Eddie was just jealous of them, and they triumphantly said that they were the most handsome boys the Weasleys had ever seen.
Since Eddie had only seen Percy and Ron from the Weasleys, he didn't know how to refute it for a while.
"All right, gentlemen."
Scott said helplessly.
"On the question of which of you is more handsome, I think you should let the girls judge it, instead of fighting meaninglessly here."
Of course, I'm much more handsome than all of you.
He thought confidently as he nibbled on his sandwich.
But in order not to discourage the self-confidence of the three good friends, he decided not to tell the obvious.
"I have an idea."
He swallowed the food in his mouth and said to the three of them.
"We don't have a place to use money for the time being, and these gold gallons are also put away, why don't you use them as capital to do some small business?"
"Haven't we been in business all the time?" Eddie asked.
Indeed, whether it is the self-proclaimed Ravenclaw underground businessman, or the Weasley joke shop twins, they usually do some sneaky little business.
"I mean do some serious business."
Scott gave him a disdainful look.
"It's not like you to swagger and deceive, to call fox droppings a buffy sober, and Muggle conditioner a hair care potion."
"Hey!"
Eddie, who was exposed by Scott, looked at him very dissatisfied.
The twins burst out laughing.
"I'll admit you're much better than we are, Eddie." Fred looked at him in amazement, "We're just selling some immature prank props. ”
"But it works!" "It's just that it could be a little unstable," George stressed. ”
Scott would love to say that they were all.
Although Eddie sells counterfeit drugs, his counterfeit drugs are harmless to people, but the immature products of the twins are often accompanied by some unpredictable side effects.
That is, the little wizards have tenacious vitality and are particularly fond of death, which makes their products marketable.
"I mean, with the capital, we can do something that makes money steadily," Scott said. ”
Despite the fact that he only performed two arithmetic divinations, he earned a total of four gold gallons, but in the wizarding world, the purchasing power of one gold galleon is very strong.
"I have no experience in business, and I need to think about it." Scott continued, "If we think about it, we can host two more guests at a time starting next week. ”
To tell the truth, Scott believes in the earning power of these three good friends, and he wants to continue to be a shopkeeper and is only ready to contribute capital.
"No problem!"
Eddie and the twins said in unison.
They're already jumping on the bandwagon.
