Professor Rupert Hogwarts

Chapter 2 Begins at the Leaky Cauldron

After walking out of the coffee shop, Aisen temporarily forgot his worries. Looking at the vehicles whizzing by on the street, he suddenly felt that even the smoke in the sky had become cute.After Goldfinger appeared, although Eisen still felt a little confused about the future, he actually felt confident in his heart.

In fact, it is also understandable, after all, who wouldn't be like this after having a golden finger?Walking on the street, Eisen glanced at the bookstores next to him one by one, and then a strange shop caught his attention.

"This is..." Looking at the dark and dilapidated building in front of him, Aisen looked back. "Yes, this is Charing Cross Street. There are many bookstores on the street." He muttered in his heart and looked up again.

Sure enough, between a bookstore and a record store, a dark and slightly dilapidated shop suddenly appeared in a place he had never noticed before.Suddenly, Eisen was a little confused.Because he often passed by this street before, even when he passed by here in the morning for work, he didn't remember such a shop here, but why did it happen so suddenly?Could it be that I have ignored it before?This is too outrageous!

Am I hallucinating?A thought flashed through Eisen's mind, but he quickly rejected it.Immediately afterwards, when Eisen saw the signboard with a slightly peeling handwriting, the words "The Leaky Cauldron" appeared in front of Eisen's eyes.

Suddenly, an unbelievable thought emerged from the depths of my memory—this is the Leaky Cauldron! ! !
This is an incredible conclusion for Eisen, but it is so reasonable when it appears here.Because at this point in time, the "Harry Potter" series of novels has not yet appeared, so it is impossible for someone to deliberately cosplay.Previously, Eisen had also thought about copying the novels of the "Harry Potter" series, but he never thought that magic would really shine into reality.

Yes, Eisen suddenly got a golden finger today, and also awakened the extraordinary talent of magic. Just when he was still guessing whether he had come to a parallel world with extraordinary power, the answer suddenly appeared in front of him.

After carefully observing it several times, Aisen felt that he had not seen it wrong.There is indeed an extra store in a place that would have been ignored before.In his opinion, this is most likely a change that can only be seen after he possesses magic power.After all, the Leaky Cauldron is said to be a place where a Hiding Charm and a Muggle Expelling Charm have been cast, making it visible only to wizards.

However, in order to make sure that his idea was correct, Eisen went directly into the bookstore next to him.

"Young man, do you need to buy any books?" A man wearing a brown leather coat and mid-length jeans appeared in front of Eisen. He seemed to be the owner of this bookstore.

Afterwards, Aisen started chatting with the other party based on his casual name.A few minutes later, Eisen paid for a copy of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

"By the way, boss, do you know what the black shop next door sells?" When leaving, Aisen asked casually.

"A black store? There's a record store next door! How can there be a black store?" The other party was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Eisen with a strange look.

"Oh, I was wrong." Eisen looked like he remembered something, turned around and left quickly.Standing on the street outside again, Eisen clenched his fists subconsciously, with only one thought in his mind: "It really seems to be the Leaky Cauldron."

After pondering for a while, Eisen still felt that he had to go in to make sure. If it was the Leaky Cauldron, he would also have to see if he could enter Diagon Alley.

Of course, Eisen was actually a little depressed when he learned that this was the world of Harry Potter.

Because he is already this year, at such an old age, it is impossible for him to enter Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to study magic.Thinking of this, Eisen's heart was full of resentment. Why didn't Goldfinger appear when he was 11 years old to help him awaken his magic power?
But that was the case now, so no matter what, he had to go to Diagon Alley, buy a wand of his own, and then buy some magic books.Because at this moment, Eisenbian already wanted to understand that the magic power he awakened was indeed used to chant spells and cast spells.Therefore, self-learning magic has become Eisen's primary goal at the moment.

But is it really okay to just go in like this?Aisen looked down at the slightly formal clothes he wore for work, and the thought passed through his mind.However, when he saw the "Encyclopedia Britannica" he just bought in his hand, a smile appeared on his face.Well, yes, I can pretend to be a wizard who studies Muggle life and social habits.

Afterwards, Eisen reached out and pushed open the wooden door of the Leaky Cauldron, and walked in.For a moment, Eisen felt as if he had changed into a different world, separated from the outside into two worlds.

The bar was extremely dark, with a bar counter and several tables scattered around it, some of which were hidden in the shadows.Candles were lit on some of the tables, providing some light to the dark bar.Of course, the most eye-catching ones were some old men and women wearing robes. It was obvious that they were all wizards.

That's right, the Leaky Cauldron!Seeing this scene, Eisen was sure at once.

Behind the bar is an old man with almost bare hair who looks like a nutcracker.Presumably, this is Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron.

Seeing a young man suddenly coming in, some wizards didn't take it seriously, and a few of them focused on Aisen, seeming to be examining him.

"Hey, young man, do you need anything?" Seeing a young man with black hair in his 20s walking over, the bar owner greeted him and asked directly.

"Well, when I was researching a very interesting spell recently, the wand was accidentally damaged, so you know, I can only go to Diagon Alley to buy a new one." At this time, Eisen's mind was already After a thousand turns, he shrugged his shoulders and told the reason he had made up a long time ago.And, try your best not to expose yourself.

"Okay, come with me." Maybe it was because Eisen behaved normally enough, or maybe it was because the hotel owner was too lazy to explore further, so the other party just nodded and motioned for Eisen to follow.

Passing through the bar, Eisen followed the hotel owner to a small patio surrounded by walls.Apart from some weeds, there was only a trash can inside.

"Count three pieces on top of the trash can, then count two pieces sideways, and then knock three times." Watching the hotel owner take out his wand and tap the wall tiles, Eisen muttered silently in his mind at the same time.

Then, the bricks on the wall began to move, and a small hole appeared in the middle, which then expanded rapidly.In the blink of an eye, a road appeared in front of Aisen's eyes.Yes, this is the famous Diagon Alley in the wizarding world.

"Okay, young man, I hope you will be more careful next time you study magic spells." The bar owner gave Eisen a piece of advice.

"Yes, sir, I have to pay attention." Eisen nodded with a smile, and then officially entered Diagon Alley.Looking back, Aisen found that the original place had become a wall again.

"The magic is really amazing!" Although there was not much expression on Aisen's face, he still couldn't stop being amazed in his heart.At a glance, the narrow streets are filled with people shopping and going back and forth.Since this time is the time when new students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry are admitted, the whole street is very lively.

An owl shop, a broomstick shop, a shop selling all kinds of quirky silverware and more.Rao Eisen had already made some mental preparations, and he also felt dazzled.

"This is the world of wizards, the wonderful wizard life, here I come!" He yelled in his heart, and Aisen finally showed an exaggerated smile on his face.

However, the top priority is to exchange some Galleons, otherwise, nothing can be bought.Walking forward with the flow of people, within a few minutes, Eisen came to the bottom of a white building, which was particularly eye-catching compared with the surrounding shops.That's right, this is the wizard's bank - Gringotts.

Obviously, for Eisen, who is new to the wizarding world, he can only come here if he wants to exchange money.After passing through the bronze gate, Eisen saw a rather ugly creature - the goblin of Gringotts.In fact, it was hard for Eisen to understand that such an ugly monster would be given such an excellent name as "Fairy".

Then Eisen came to the second silver door, which had some warning slogans engraved on it.After entering, we came to a marble hall with a row of long counters on both sides. There were hundreds of goblins standing on the high stools behind, each busy with their own things.

"Hello, I would like to exchange 200 gold galleons." Eisen walked directly to a counter and took out a thousand pounds.Yes, exchanging pounds for gold galleons is a necessary process.As for why they don't exchange more, it's because there are restrictions on how to exchange pounds for gold galleons.

Therefore, the goblin in front of him said nothing about Aisen's request.In fact, Eisen still has some doubts in his heart, that is, whether Gringotts will exchange gold Galleons for a wild wizard of unknown origin (himself).If it was only exchanged for young wizards who had just entered the wizarding world, then Aisen would have to find a more normal reason.

For example, for the past few years, I have been living in Muggle society and doing Muggle research, and now I plan to study magic in depth and so on.But fortunately, the other party didn't ask any further questions. After exchanging 200 gold galleons, Eisen left Gringotts.
