After dinner on the last day of February, Ryan and Hermione had just entered the library to study and do homework together. Suddenly, a flash of fire flashed on the table in front of them, and a piece of parchment was rolled tightly.
Suddenly appeared on the table.
"Is it Principal Dumbledore looking for you?" Hermione turned her head and asked, because the light of fire just now was so obvious that it was obvious at a glance that it was a phoenix delivering something, and the only phoenix in the whole castle was Dumbledore.
Bullide's Fox.
"Probably." Ryan lowered his head and opened the rolled-up parchment, and found a few lines of words written on it in a slender, circle-within-a-circle font: Please bring the things you prepared before and come to the principal's office immediately. We should set off.
Yes, the password is gold coin chocolate.
It seemed that Dumbledore thought now was the best time to enter Gringotts. Ryan said goodbye to Hermione and asked her to take her textbooks back to the common room. Then he quickly ran upstairs to where the principal's office was.
.When he opened the door with a password and walked up the spiral staircase, the oak door opened. Ryan found that in addition to Dumbledore wearing a purple robe and sitting on the chair where he usually sat, Sirius was also wearing a purple robe.
Wearing a rather formal robe, he looked a little restrained and sat on another chair.
"Good evening, Principal Dumbledore. Good evening, Sirius." Ryan greeted the two people in the office first. "We are now -"
"We will set off now to get Voldemort's Horcrux from Bella's vault in Gringotts." Professor Dumbledore nodded. "Because I got conclusive evidence today that Voldemort took Bella and two other Death Eaters with him.
Went to Greece for business. They have now left the UK, and I can guarantee that we won’t be bumped into by them when we are looking for things.”
"But how are we going to get in soon? Should we attack by force or infiltrate?" Ryan asked.
"No." Dumbledore shook his head slightly. "You don't have to say anything for a while. I have a great way to break through most of the guards in front. Of course, this requires Sirius's help. This is why I called him here today.
"
"I'm glad to be able to help you with such an important matter, Professor Dumbledore." Xiaotian nodded slightly.
After making sure that everyone was ready, Professor Dumbledore stood up behind the table, then asked Sirius to hold his hand, and Ryan took Sirius's hand. "We are now using Fawkes to go to Diagon Alley, so you two
It’s all caught.”
After Ryan and Sirius nodded, Phoenix Fawkes flew from the shelf to Dumbledore's free hand. After a flash of fire, the three people disappeared from the principal's office.
When the firelight in front of him dissipated, Ryan found that they had appeared in an unobtrusive corner of Diagon Alley. After adjusting their clothes, they began to walk in the direction of Gringotts.
The facade of Gringotts is different from all the shops on this street. It is made of snow-white marble. If it didn't look distorted, this building could even be called magnificent. Of course, even if the entire building
The buildings are erected crookedly. Gringotts still stands high above the surrounding shops, standing out from the crowd on this street.
Even though it was already night, the bronze door of Gringotts was still shining brightly. A very short elf, as neatly dressed as during the day, stood there in a scarlet uniform that seemed to have been freshly ironed. When he saw Ryan and the others walking,
When you come over, bow politely and open the door.
Ryan used to only come to Gringotts once a year on average. In his impression, every time he came to Gringotts, he always had to walk through the short corridor, spend ten minutes queuing up with a group of people, and then have to wait in line for more than ten minutes.
You have to pass several tests before you can go to the counter and handle the business you need. If this kind of service attitude were left outside, the bank would have closed down long ago. The reason why Gringotts is so prosperous is because there is only such a bank in the wizarding world.
Fortunately, they used the excuse of working with Sirius today, so they could avoid a lot of queuing and other problems faced by ordinary wizards. Sirius, as the patriarch of the Black family, can naturally enjoy Gringotts' pure experience.
A special VIP service opened by the Blood Family. Just as the three of them stepped into the lobby, an old goblin wearing a monocle and a tuxedo greeted them.
"Ah, respected Headmaster Dumbledore, Mr. Black and this young gentleman. Is there anything I can do to help you?" The goblin walked up to her and bowed deeply, even with his big nose almost touching the floor.
superior.
"That's it." Sirius took a step forward and said. "I have some things from the family treasury that need to be traded to my young partner, and since the things I want to give him are very precious and the young man is still
At school, so his headmaster, Mr. Dumbledore, will be a witness to our transaction, so we now want to enter my vault."
"Of course, no problem." The old goblin nodded. "Then please show your proof."
Sirius took out a golden key set with emeralds from his arms. After checking it, the old goblin nodded slightly, then bowed again and said. "The key is fine, we can set off right away."
.”
After speaking, he clapped his hands gently, and a younger goblin came over.
"I want to use jingle pieces." The older goblin said to him. The young goblin left quickly. After a while, he brought a small leather bag and handed it to the older goblin. The bag seemed to be filled with jingling metal.
"Okay, okay! Please come with me, three distinguished gentlemen." The older goblin said, turned around and began to lead the way, "I will take you to the Black family's treasury."
Soon he led Ryan and the three of them through the hall sandwiched between a lot of counters. At this time, Ryan noticed that it was different from what he had seen during the day. There were only two or three goblins sitting behind the counter, weighing gems, precious metals or
There were far fewer yawns than the staff during the day.
Soon they passed through the door at the back of the hall and came to a rough stone corridor, which was illuminated by burning torches. However, Ryan discovered that these torches were not ordinary torches at all, each of them was a magic prop.
.
"Have you also discovered the problem with the torch?" Sirius said beside him as he watched Ryan stare at the torch, "It's my first time here and I'm also curious about why there are such crude torches in a place like Gringotts.
, but at that time my cousin Andromeda, Tonks’s mother, told me that these torches were precious magic props, and as long as magic power was injected into them once, these flames would last for a whole year."
"It's really——" Ryan didn't know what to say at this time. Even if it was far from Gublai's Fairy Fire, anything related to magic props would not be cheap. Ryan didn't expect these goblins to be so rich.
The goblin who received Ryan and the others stood at the entrance of the cave in front and whistled, and a small cart rolled along the track from the darkness. The four people with the goblin could just fit into the small cart.
"Our underground vault in Gringotts is the safest place to hide treasures. In the future, you can choose us to keep your wealth." After the car started, the goblin sitting in front started chattering. He was mainly targeting
It was Ryan, because there were not many students who could serve as a partner of a pure-blood family and let Dumbledore accompany him to do things, and in his impression, Ryan did not handle any financial business at Gringotts.
So the goblin took advantage of this opportunity to try to attract business for Gringotts. As for the fact that Ryan was not a pure-blood wizard, the goblin did not value it. After all, to them, no matter what the blood of those humans, gold was the same.
Were it not for the International Secrecy Act, they would even be willing to do business with Muggles.
