Time is pulled back a little bit.

Several people who had cast the Super Powerful Illusion Spell stood in the empty side hall, watching as a sniffer, two, three, suddenly jumped out of the void.

Newt's sniffer didn't know when he held a short golden stick in his hand, and Nicol's voice became a little hesitant:

"That thing looks familiar."

The sniff below had swarthy eyes open, and his expression as if he was staring at the golden stick seemed to be shining.

The golden stick waved, and the sniffer pointed excitedly at the Gringotts counter not far away.

It's like a general, assigning tasks to his soldiers.

Finally, in the excited 'chirp' of sniffing, a group of big black mouse-like figures rushed towards the hall quickly.

Sniff slipped the little golden stick into his bag, patted it with satisfaction, and then looked at the Gringotts hall with a look of longing in his eyes.

There was the smell of a treasure there—it smelled like a golden beetle the size of a fairy's palm, with six edges on all sides, and a charcoal fire ruby with gold and black gemstones!

Now it's sniffing!

Where's my baby?

What about the baby that was just placed here?

Bogrod propped his hands on the table, his eyes were already bloodshot, and his pointed ears were upturned, clearly furious.

After rummaging frantically on the table for a while, he turned around and grabbed the assistant's collar: "Where's my baby?" ”

The assistant looked frightened and shook his head desperately: "No, I don't know." ”

At this moment, a scream of a fairy suddenly rang out in the hall of Gringotts.

The screams were filled with despair, horror, grief, anger and more. Fear.

"Sniff ——!"

As if an alarm had sounded, all the goblins jumped almost instinctively, and they lowered their heads in panic to check their treasure chests.

Then there were screams and cries of pain:

"My Baby ——!"

"Sniff - no! How can there be a sniff here! ”

"All my gold is gone"

"What about the anti-sniffing spell? What about safety officers? ”

Bogrod had already loosened his assistant's collar and was in a hurry to find a pair of glasses out of nowhere.

In a sharp voice, he shouted, "Sniff? Where's the sniff? ”

If a wizard is just an enemy who doesn't like it, but Sniff is a sworn enemy of goblins.

Wizards rumor it is that goblins like to breed sniffers to find treasure, and goblins just want to say it's bullshit!

Sniff a litter of six to seven, very reproductive, raising sniff will be stolen if you don't pay attention to it, if possible, goblins will hope that there is no sniff this species in the world!

In the fairy tale of the goblin, 8 out of 10 villains are sniffers, who are described as having thick black fur and sharp claws, and whenever the big demon king of sniffing appears, the fairy baby leaves him.

The remaining two are mostly arrogant wizards, the kind that are finally played by goblins and wise men, lose face and win away all their wealth.

Just for a short while, Zhang Xiao was stunned to see that the entire Gringotts hall seemed to be boiling, and there were screaming and crying goblins everywhere.

Bogrode stood on its table in embarrassment, raising his arms and shouting:

"Block the passage to the cave! Clear the field - find the guards, don't let one sniff slip into the vault, they will produce more offspring than Galleons! ”

One by one, the wizards were brought out of the cave with a blank expression, only to find the entrance of the cave as armed goblins as if they were guarding the enemy.

When asked what was going on, a wizard said dissatisfiedly, "It's just a sniffer."

Then he spotted a sniffer looking at him, quickly shoving a chunk of ruby, as large as a burnt coal, into his pocket.

There were more than a dozen black shadows scurrying around this sniffing one.

"Okay. Good luck. ”

"Let's go, we've been given at least a few hours of safety, and the hole won't open until we have fully caught these sniffs."

Grindelwald's voice suddenly sounded in Zhang Xiao's ears, and when he turned around, he found that the goblin Grindelwald had turned into a goblin that had no idea what it had shown to be.

He was still carrying a bottle of red currant rum in his hand, and he was walking crookedly at the moment, as if he had drunk too much.

"Those sniffs."

Zhang Xiao asked hesitantly, because these goblins gave him the feeling that they were going to sniff the Nine Clans.

"Don't worry, someone from the Fantastic Beasts department will come in a while, and they'll receive anonymous reports that it's natural to sniff things that like shiny things.

The people of the Ministry of Magic do not condemn them because of their sniffing nature, but they will check them and release them. ”

Newt was familiar with the processes of the Fantastic Beasts-related departments, and he confidently checked them.

"That's good." Zhang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and took a few steps forward, but wondered what Grindelwald could do to take them down.

Grindelwald's deformed goblin staggered to the mouth of a hole in the ground, and the two goblins standing there looked at him in disgust, as if they were very reluctant to deal with him, but finally reluctantly said:

"Old drunkard, too much to drink?"

Grindelwald burped and reached over the bottle: "No, no, how can I drink too much?" Would you like a bite, boys? ”

"No, you'd better keep it for yourself."

The goblins hurriedly shook their heads, and looked at the dirty bottles that had been sent to them with an unknown smell.

"That's a shame.

I. I. I have always felt that in addition to loving treasure, goblins should also learn to enjoy life.

Hiccups ~~~~~~ instead of. Hiding in the vault all day long, counting the gold coins over and over again. ”

What? Goblins don't love treasure and don't count gold coins? Is that still a goblin?

The two goblin guards shut their mouths and glared at him fiercely, this is not a goblin!

Grindelwald smiled disapprerovingly, raised the bottle and took another sip, spitting out a big gulp.

"Hah-okay, I. I'm going to work, open the door. ”

"No, there is a sniff, the door can't be opened!"

"Who told you to open the door to the hole? I'm going to overhaul the railcar - do you know it? Give me the door to start the station!

Yesterday there were three railcars damaged, and you goblins who haven't turned white don't know how to cherish them? ”

The old goblin played by Grindelwald foams and waves his hands, looking very oppressive, and the two goblins look frightened, put their hands across their faces, and retreat again and again.

Zhang Xiao thinks that most of the oppression may come from the foul-smelling foam in Grindelwald's spitting room.

The group watched Grindelwald's performance quietly, and there was a review of Nicolamay as if he were watching a movie:

"Perfect, I can't tell that he is acting at all, has he always been so good at acting?"

"Yes, I think he's always been so good at that," Dumbledore said lightly.

It didn't take long for the two goblins whose hair hadn't turned white to give up their resistance and humiliatingly opened a hidden passage next to the gate.

Grindelwald smiled and poured another sip of wine before casually wiping his mouth and entering, but in fact he waited for the other three to advance.

It was a narrow passage, and Zhang Xiao felt that he could touch the top with a slight jump, but it was indeed a surplus for the goblin.

Both Dumbledore and Newt had to bend down to get through.

Only the sound of clackling footsteps echoed in the passage, because the passage was not large, and there was no magic torch set inside, but instead a glowing moss.

Every short distance, a cloud of moss glows faintly blue.

Shining on Grindelwald's body is more like a blue-skinned goblin.

Grindelwald's voice reached everyone's ears through the earrings:

"No one remembers the original name of this goblin, but its penchant for drinking earned it the nickname Old Drunkard, which is its current name.

The Old Drunkard doesn't have a very strong presence in the elves and works in Gringotts' maintenance department, where he is responsible for the maintenance and maintenance of Gringotts' railcars.

That's why I chose it as a shapeshifter, because it was often so drunk that it forgot what it had done, and coincidentally, it was indeed the day it was supposed to be on duty. ”

Zhang Xiao listened silently, he knew that Grindelwald deliberately said it to himself, which was a class in another sense, and he didn't know what Dumbledore said, so that he could put down the vinegar bottle.

"So now it's easy, let's go to the repair shop, find a car, start it and fly towards the vault."

Grindelwald's footsteps stopped, and his voice carried a hint of a smile:

"Alright, we're here."

What appeared in front of Zhang Xiao was an empty space, where a dense crowd of ordinary rail cars were parked, and it looked like there were at least a hundred of them.

Some of the railcars were crooked, their wheels twisted, and they didn't know how the goblins could use them to make them look like this.

Grindelwald picked and chosen, and finally chose a railcar that looked very good and patted the body:

"That's it."

Nick's voice came from his ears again: "Look for it, it should be on the remote control stick or steering wheel." ”

Zhang Xiao looked inexplicable, didn't he say that he wanted to rebuild an ordinary rail car?

Before he could ask, Newt naturally began to explain:

"Oh, because Grindelwald happened to find a goblin to repair it, so we changed our plans to turn the elf railcar into something we could use."

Over there, Grindelwald had pulled out a strange-looking piece and stuck it on the handle.

Seeing that the thing slowly stretched and wrapped around the handle, Nick Lemay smiled:

"It's really an alchemy craft, it's very simple, it's a craft that I taught others more than two hundred years ago, and it has changed a little but not much."

The silver sheet included in the handle floated with mysterious lines, and in the blink of an eye, Nicol said easily:

"It should be fine, go try it."

The four of them arrived at the starting platform, and Dumbledore felt for a small silver whistle, which he held in his mouth and blew lightly.

The railcar immediately lit up with dim lights, like a puppy that heard its owner's call, ran over with joy and stopped steadily on the platform.

They climbed into the cart, with Grindelwald at the front and the three of them in the back.

The cart started suddenly, faster and faster: they rushed out with a whistling and then turned around along the labyrinth of corridors.

Only at this time did Zhang Xiao feel the difference between the red VIP car he made before and the ordinary rail car.

The clatter of the rail car was loud and scary, and the ears were full of whimpering wind, while the previous VIP car was as silent as an electric car.

The wind in the cave hit his face and made him unable to open his eyes at all, and Zhang Xiao only saw that he kept making sharp turns between the stalactites, speeding towards the depths.

But it was only a moment of effort, Zhang Xiao remembered that he was still a wizard, just raised his head and snapped his fingers lightly, and the whistling around him disappeared immediately.

"Zhang, you're getting more and more proficient in magic, excellent wandless silent spell."

Dumbledore's half-moon lenses shimmered, and his long white hair was blown into a strange shape - all covering Newt's face.

Newt tugged at the long hair on his face, trying to breathe well, and complained:

"Dumbledore, don't you ever trim your hair?"

"I just feel like a haircut is a trivial thing that doesn't deserve to be done." Dumbledore winked at Newt, snapping his fingers casually, just like Zhang Xiao.

The wind disappeared so abruptly, and now they were as leisurely and quiet as if they were sitting in the compartment of the Ferris wheel.

"Albus, is this kid really only in the third grade?" Grindelwald's voice came from ahead.

"A little wizard in the third year, Gellert."

Grindelwald muttered, "Well, I wasn't that skilled without a wand in my third grade."

"Times are changing—" Dumbledore said softly, his voice tinged with a peculiar emotion of joy and regret, "This is not our time, Gellert, as an old man of the age, should stand in the afterglow of the sunset, admiring the spirits of the young people, watching them sway their light and heat like the newborn sunrise."

It's time for Gellert to finish. ”

The atmosphere inside the rail car was quiet again.

After a while, Zhang Xiao decided to say something to break the unsettling atmosphere, so he asked curiously:

"Professor, next. How to solve the thief waterfall? ”

The Thief Waterfall alone is actually useless, and must be guarded to form an effective system.

As the most important node in the entire Gringotts guard system, the elves did spend considerable effort to configure around the Thief Guards.

"It's actually very simple, Zhang, you just think it's too complicated."

Dumbledore said with a smile.

Very simple? Zhang Xiao frowned and thought hard, but Dumbledore didn't intend to let him guess this time, but asked directly:

"Why is this car able to pass through the Thief Falls?"

"Because. Is this car made of alchemy? And not just a spell? ”

"So you see, the answer is actually quite simple."

Zhang Xiao looked at Dumbledore dumbfounded, and somewhere he took out a scale-identical goblin model, which looked exactly like the elf old drunkard.

There is also an introduction from Nicol Lemay in my ear:

"It took me three whole days, alchemy goblin."

Not only that, but Dumbledore then pulled out a light gauze that shimmered like water:

"And- I borrowed the Cloak of Invisibility from Harry."
