Hogwarts Wizard of the Deep

Chapter 170 Borgin Bock
"I really don't understand why Dumbledore insists on me going back to that disgusting place!"

London, in front of platform nine and three quarters.Harry was carrying a large suitcase and said with a downcast expression.

"The professor should have his reasons for doing this!" Hermione said, "Besides, no matter how bad they treat you, they are still your family!"

"Family?! It depends on how to define it. If it's just a blood relationship, it's not wrong to say whether it's a family," Jane said, and then pointed to Ron who was talking to his family.

"At least I think it's more accurate to use feelings to define whether they are family members. For example, Ron's mother must be like family members to Harry, and his uncle and aunt..."

"That's right, they're not really family, huh!" Harry said, and Hedwig kept nodding in agreement in the cage.Suddenly, Harry saw a figure walking out of the platform alone.

"By the way, have you seen Linde's parents?" Harry asked suddenly.

"No. He didn't know, and he didn't tell us about these things either!" Hermione shook her head.

"Um, don't talk about it." Jane said seriously, "He has no parents."

"Hey, why are you..." Harry simply wanted to stop her from making such a joke, but he saw her serious expression, "You're not kidding, are you?"

"Of course I'm not joking. Would I use this kind of thing as a joke?" Jane snorted. "He told me himself, during the last chat."

"Then him?!" Hermione looked at the platform passage where Linde disappeared.

"I don't know, he just smiled and said that although he was an orphan, he had an unparalleled happy childhood." Jane spread her hands, "After that, he didn't say anything more!"

As she spoke, she saw a low figure walking from the platform out of the corner of her eye.

"Oh, Lorick is here."

Loric is a house elf of Jane's family, who is said to have worked in her family for almost 30 years.

The house elf humbly squeezed through the crowd, pulling Jane's box.

Hermione always felt a little uncomfortable seeing its narrow eyes.It's the first time she's ever seen a house-elf.
"Miss, shall we go home now?"

"I'll talk to my friends again," Jane said. "You can take your luggage back first."

"Ok."

In the next second, Jane's luggage disappeared along with Loric.

"But to be honest, Linde never talked about himself to us. You know, as far as I have observed, he seldom appears in the waiting room, only occasionally changing clothes."

Harry also nodded and said...

Linde, who walked out of platform nine and three-quarters, first came to the public toilet in the station. After a while, when he came out again, he had already changed into the image of Michael Myers.

Outside the platform, Linde used Occlumency to attract the Knight Bus, and arrived in Surrey in the afternoon.

Knott Town, Cemetery.

Linde carefully pulled out a bunch of weeds, and muttered to himself,
"As far as the grades are concerned, I think there should be no problem, and I can apply for a time-turner next semester.

It is basically impossible to go back two years ago with a time-turner, but... He gave me some knowledge. "

As he said that, Linde had already cleaned up the weeds, and he gently placed his hand on the tombstone, "But Mom, isn't that the knowledge that guy gave me on purpose?"

"Could it be that He saw through my desires and needs, and then deliberately devoured the soul containing this piece of knowledge for me?"

As he spoke, Linde's expression flickered,
"Well, whether it is or not, I think it is necessary to give it a try."

"My life doesn't matter, but if Felix can't find it, I won't feel at ease for the rest of my life!" Linde whispered.

"British latitude is too high. If you want to wait for a sea storm that can set off a twenty-foot high sea, it is not enough to wait for several years. So..."

With that said, Linde stood up and looked at the moon rising in the dim yellow sky. This was a first quarter moon that was about to complete.

The time is now approaching mid-June, which happens to be another full moon,
"I can't wait, and I can't pin all my hopes on the Time-Turner..."

After speaking, Linde led Andersen slowly out of the cemetery.

He first came to the former home and entered the house in the dark.

The first step in the plan, get a new wand.

At this step, Linde learned from Ron that all wand purchases in Ollivander require identity registration.

So he wants to try it out, can he find some other way.

The wand needs to be registered for purchase, which just proves the strategic nature of this thing.

Correspondingly, someone must be selling wands in another way.

This kind of thing is definitely not visible, so Linde has a good place to go.

"Knock Knock Alley"

It is adjacent to Diagon Alley, where dragons and snakes are mixed, which is despised by most wizards.The alley is full of dark magic shops, the largest of which is Borgin and Bock's Magic Shop, where the Malfoys are often their customers.

Among them, Harry went in when he first used Floo powder.Fortunately, he met Hagrid at that time, otherwise he might not be able to come out healthy.

And when Snape took Linde to Diagon Alley for the first time, because he was worried that they might stray into Knockturn Alley, he even pointed out to Linde.

Linde hasn't been anywhere yet, but he just glanced at it a few times when passing by.He didn't have that need at that time, so he didn't go in.

As for the reason why he didn't go there immediately, it was because he wanted to come back to see Mrs. Evelyn first.

What is it like for a child not to visit his parents the first time after school?

That's what he thought.

Early the next morning, Linde packed up. He didn't bring a suitcase, but only a pocket bag, and went into battle lightly.

……

The conductor Stan saw Linde, "Mr. Miles? I didn't expect it to be you again!"

Linde smiled, "Ah, that's right, it's still Diagon Alley, it's really troublesome."

"It's just work!" Stan said, seeing that Linde had no luggage, he hurriedly led him up, "Ern, did you hear that? Mr. Miles."

"Understood! Haha, Diagon Alley, let's go." There was a burst of laughter in front of the car.

The car started at once, and Linde supported the upright of the bed next to him to maintain his body. He took out the prepared change from his pocket and handed it to Stan.

"It seems that you haven't gotten used to the style of our knight bus!"

Linde quickly found an empty bed and sat down, his face uncomfortable, "I guess I will never get used to your style."

"Hahaha, just a few more times." Stan laughed.

Linde didn't speak any more, pretending to be uncomfortable.He himself rides in the sea every day, and the degree of shaking of the Knight Bus is simply incomparable to those underwater undercurrents.

His discomfort now is just faking it.After all, he is not Linde now, but a decent wizard from other places.It is normal to not get used to the Knight bus.

As for apparating, not every wizard knows it. In the magic world, there are many wizards who don't understand apparating. Some wizards may have forgotten how to use it.
Some people may have made a mistake in a certain apparition, and then left an indelible shadow in their hearts, and never dared to use it again.

Some people don't learn at all.

All kinds of situations can arise.Apparation is an extremely high-end spell. Even though Hogwarts organizes learning in a unified way, there is no hard requirement, and there is no saying that everyone knows it.

Otherwise, there would not be so many ways of moving in the wizarding world.

After that, Lin Deqiang made a uncomfortable expression, and finally came to the Leaky Cauldron Bar near noon.

"Mr. Miles, are you going home today?" Stan asked suddenly.

"If there are no accidents, I should still bother you later today!" Linde smiled, and then saw Stan's expression on his face.

Don't even think about it, it's probably another bet with Ern who was driving.

After that, Linde walked into the Leaky Cauldron.

Go to the back and enter Diagon Alley.

Half a year later, Diagon Alley still hasn't changed at all, and time still hasn't left any traces on this medieval wizarding commercial street.

Linde kept walking and walked straight into the alley.In front of the Gringotts Wizarding Bank.

The path leading to Knockturn Alley is directly to the right of the Gringotts gate.

Andersen flew to stand above Gringotts at this time, and Linde let him move freely the moment he entered here.Because his appearance is still very recognizable, especially the claws that don't look like crows at all.

Bulking up his muscles, he closed the hood, and Linde stepped into it slowly.

Different from the outside, when Linde stepped into the alley, he smelled a vague smell. The ground was full of sewage, black and green moss grew on the corners of the walls, and the walls of many walls had peeled off.

There are chaotic bluestone steps at the foot. They are long or short, protruding or indented, which always makes it difficult for first-timers to step down. They can only watch the steps go down step by step.

After walking in for more than ten meters, the walls on both sides began to have dark and dirty windows, and the field of vision was no longer a path, but became wider. Two ragged wizards watched him walk in, whispering Whispering, without hesitation, cast a maliciously sneering look at him.

The alley is relatively wide, and there are many such guys on the trail.No matter the clothes are dirty or neat; no matter the manner is wretched or elegant;

Their eyes are constantly looking at Linde, the new guy.

An old witch with messy hair was wearing a tattered robe and was standing by the side of the road carrying a greasy barrel. When she saw Linde approaching, she suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist.
"Young man, how about my new arrival?" Her throat was like a rotting toad, her teeth were blackened, and she gave off a stench. She wanted to drag Linde over without any explanation.

Linde stood still, but his body was not affected by the strength of her hands at all, as if she didn't exist.
Looking down, there are many shriveled human organs inside, and there are traces of soil on them. It seems that they have just been dug out of the grave not long ago.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in corpses." Linde said lightly.

"You've seen it all, who will I sell it to if you don't buy it?" The witch looked at Linde with a gloomy expression, scratching at Linde's hand with her yellow and thickened sharp nails.

"Maybe we can get some fresh goods and sell them." Linde's right hand slowly squeezed the hand she was holding her.

"Ok?"

"For example, there should be a lot of people wanting fresh manpower." Linde exerted his strength slowly.

The woman suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly wanted to pull her hand out.

"Ah!" A piercing voice came from her throat.Because of the severe pain, she knelt on the ground weakly.

"Sorry, sorry, I thought you were"

"Think I'm the Lengtouqing who broke in by mistake?" Linde smiled, shook off her hand, and walked in without looking at her.

At this time, the old witch ruthlessly touched her already purple wrist, howling continuously.

"Hehe, I have been stuck here every day to collect tolls, and I finally got my retribution!"

"A new face? Is it so vicious?"

"Stubborn, but it's the first time I've come here, I guess I've been in other places before, so just put it away if you're careful."

……

Linde felt the eyes of the people around him gradually moving away from him, and hearing what they said in his ears, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

"Sure enough, I've lived a lawful life for too long, and the chaotic way of doing things in this place makes me feel more at ease, hehehe..."

Linde kept looking up and scanning, not shying away from his newcomer attitude.The British wizarding world is not big, and the circle belonging to Knockturn Alley is even smaller. Whether he is a newcomer can be seen at a glance by others, and there is no need to avoid it.

"What are you looking for?" said a wizard squatting by the side of the road.His pupils were yellow and cloudy, and his right hand was missing.Looking at him with a smile on his face.

"I'm looking for Borgin Bock's."

"Oh, as expected." The guy sneered, then pointed to Lin De,

"More than half of the faces are looking for his house. It's just a little ahead. The sign of his house is very small. It's blocked from this angle. You can see it by walking a little further."

Linde nodded, "Thank you!"

Then popped a Galleon at him.

"You are very generous!" The guy laughed, and then jumped up, completely different from the decadent beggar who was squatting on the side of the road just now, "If there is a destiny, see you in the bar!"

Linde watched him run away speechlessly, then shook his head and walked towards the person he was pointing at.

In his memory, Borgin & Bock store was an illegal department store, and as the largest store in Fandao Lane, Linde believed that even if Borgin didn't have a wand, he must have a way.

Anyway, it must be much better than him looking for it like a headless chicken.

Walked two steps forward, as expected, I saw a wooden sign above the store, which said "Bojin Bok"

In the opposite window of this store, several human heads were displayed in a gloomy manner. These heads were obviously processed, with shriveled skin and protruding eyeballs. Their hair was hung, and their eyes kept scanning Linde.

This is not a regular decoration, it has a certain intelligence, it is probably similar to the magic painting and the stone beast at the door of Dumbledore's office.

There is also such a decorative head on the front of the Knight Bus, which is often used as a joke between Stan and Ern.

Linde cast a glance, and then pushed open the wooden door of Bojin Burke store.
