'I'm really sorry, dear little guest, we really don't have the delicious magical animals you need in our shop. They are not delicious at all and cannot be eaten...'
'And there's nothing you need about the Fire Dragon! '
'Perhaps you can go to the 'Eela Owl Shop' to see the owls they sell? '
In the Magical Menagerie in Diagon Alley, in the store with the name 'Magical Menagerie' on the sign, a female boss wearing thick black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose was carefully telling this to her in a trembling tone. The little girl who was picking at the pet shop and saying, "This one doesn't taste good" and "That one is too ugly must not taste good" was invited out to the street, and then he pointed at the one in the distance. Competitor 'Easy Owl Shop' direction and encouraged.
If this little girl was bought as a pet, she would certainly welcome it. After all, she wouldn't have trouble with Jin Gallon, would she?
However, after knowing that the other party actually wanted magical animals to buy and eat, not only was she frightened, but also the pets in her shop, including owls, toads, mice, cats, snakes, etc., were also frightened crazy and started to make a fuss... So, as a last resort, she had no choice but to 'kindly' tell this man that he came here two years ago and bought her phoenix egg, and now he came again, and he still didn't give up on buying the fire dragon. The scary little girl gave gifts out the door of her shop.
You know, she, the boss, has stopped working for two years, and will never do the shameful business of selling fire dragons again. No matter what the other party says, no matter how much money is offered, she will still be true. I can't bring out any 'Fire Dragon'!
"But……"
(lll￢ω￢)
"Those Scottish round-faced fat chickens are too thin. Even though they look big, they are much worse than chickens after they are plucked. Moreover, those broken feathers are not easy to pluck out, and the meat is too old to stew and drink soup. Okay, but the meat isn’t very tasty…”
(ノへ￣、)
For little Annie, who is lustful about sex, the owl is obviously not something she is willing to try again, so the advice given to her by the proprietress of the magical animal store will definitely not be adopted.
Anyway,
Two days ago, when little Annie secretly went to visit her unicorn friend Anna in the Forbidden Forest, she captured a wild owl... But unfortunately, its meat was really unpalatable. It's made of firewood. Except for a bit of meat on the thigh that is difficult to pull off, the whole body is made of hard bones, which is not easy to chew!
And if they were really delicious, she would probably have included them in her diet a long time ago with so many owls in the owl shed in the school and that beautiful big white bird called Harry Glasses. Yes, why would you need to come to Diagon Alley to buy it?
Speaking of which, she had long been unhappy with those big birds that didn't sleep in the middle of the night, were always nocturnal, flew around the castle and screamed, and always pooped on the balcony outside her room. of!
'! ! '
Obviously, the little girl's words startled the female proprietress of the magical animal store, because she could tell that this little guy seemed to have eaten an owl?
"Anyway, little guest, we really don't have the kind of 'delicious magical animals' you need here, so please, please go somewhere else."
"Maybe you will make unexpected discoveries elsewhere?!"
After saying that, the female boss wearing thick black-rimmed glasses hurriedly turned around and ran to her shop. After immediately locking the glass door, she hurriedly put up the 'Suspension of Business' sign.
Because now, she has to appease the magical animals in her shop. Otherwise, if the animals continue to make trouble, I'm afraid she won't have to continue her business! After all, the magical animals in her shop are very smart, and she doesn't want to give them a bad impression that she wants to sell them for meat, which will cause other customers to be upset and frightened when they come to choose. Her business?
"Really, if you don't have it, then you don't have it. Why are you so fierce?!"
o(??^｀)oHmph!
Little Annie wasn't upset at being turned away. Anyway, there really weren't any magical animals there that she liked and thought might be delicious, so she simply turned around and left.
"..."
(????ˇ??ˇ????)
After discovering that delicious-looking little animal in a store without her, and being chased away by the store owner, and leaving the door of the 'Magic Zoo' store with some shame and anger, little Annie began to wander around Diagon Alley. got up.
"Forget it, I don't want to be acquainted with her, why don't we go get some money first?"
o(??▽｀)o =3 =3 =3
Then, she felt that she needed to buy a few new large-sized cauldrons and a lot of materials suitable for stewing soup... Oh, no, it should be raw materials suitable for stewing 'potions', so she made an impromptu decision: go to Gringotts. A trip to take away the remaining part of the huge compensation she had temporarily stored inside?
After all, the hateful Professor Snape in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and the stingy Professor Pomona Sprout, who is responsible for teaching herbology and cultivating herbal medicines, are keeping her Professor Anne as a guard against thieves. Understand! Therefore, she had no choice but to spend her money to buy what she needed and squander it. She really had no other better choice.
but……
Annie still felt that those guys were just stingy, why could other professors apply for and consume the school's materials and animals, and she, Professor Annie, only used them for a few days, and they kept telling her to stop. ? Then it must be treated differently, must be because of stinginess, right?
(lll￢ω￢)
But yesterday, she heard the gatekeeper by the Forbidden Forest, the Hogwarts gamekeeper and keykeeper Hagrid sincerely tell her... It is said that there are some things in the Forbidden Forest. You can buy it in the alley, but what is not available in the Forbidden Forest, can you buy it in the alley?
(??????﹃??`??)
Therefore, she decided that she would stop going to the Forbidden Forest and harm those little animals in the future, or would it be better to just spend money to buy them? And if it was bought with gold galleons, surely no one would make irresponsible remarks to her or criticize her for eating magical animals, right?
(…)
(●￣(??)￣●)
(Tibbers doesn’t want to comment on certain things around Hogwarts, especially the forbidden area, except for the unicorns he has a good relationship with and the half-human centaur who luckily doesn’t eat them. Almost all the magical animals that looked 'delicious' in the forest were poisoned, leaving her to eat them all, making her such a miserable little master!)
"Um……"
(ー`??ー)
To put it bluntly, Diagon Alley in the wizarding world is just a pedestrian street that is not too long. Therefore, the tall and conspicuous white building at the interface between Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley, and the ancient spirit located almost in the middle of Diagon Alley Little Annie arrived at the Ge Bank before she had been shopping for long.
"Um……"
"Tibbers, this must be here, right? We haven't been back for a long time, and I feel a little nostalgic. I didn't expect that it is still the same as before, even the traces of the burns we had at that time are gone... …”
o(??????????) o??
Looking at the shiny bronze door in front of her, and then at the two goblin guards wearing scarlet and gold uniforms who were so frightened that they ran inside the door as soon as they discovered her arrival, Anne looked at it with some nostalgia. said his little bear Tibbs.
(…)
??llll￢??￢??
At that time, there was a kind of goblin who lived here, but in fact it was probably a group of hateful little things like the greedy goblins of Azeroth who stole her family's gold coins! Moreover, after they were greedy, they actually wanted to close the door and let the dragon bite her?
But in the end, all the bad guys who shouted the loudest were burned to ashes by her. Even the dragon was killed directly by her release of Tibbers and quickly burned into a skeleton. The rest were not too bad. They were all hung in that hall by her...
`(*∩_∩*)′
And now that I think about it, I really miss it a bit...
Especially the aroma of dragon meat roasted by a bonfire lit by a wand... I just don't know if those goblins have caught a new dragon and stuffed it under Gringotts again. Acting as a guard in an underground vault? If there were any more, or could she find another chance to beat them up?
(…)
(●￣(??)￣●)
After thinking about it, she also rarely used her mental power to scan the opponent's underground vault. Soon, she found no trace of the existence of the dragon, so she had to regretfully step forward with her short legs, step by step. and walked forward.
'! ! '
At this time, little Annie, who was alone, wearing a little red skirt, and carrying a stuffed toy bear in her hand, who was extremely recognizable to some groups, had just come within fifty meters and caused a certain reaction on the spot. The vigilance of a goblin guard!
So, after it rubbed its eyes to confirm that it was correct, it quickly turned around and ran into the bank...
Gringotts, the full name is: Gringotts Wizarding Bank, it is run by goblins, the only bank in the magical world of British wizards!
It is located in Diagon Alley in London. Its main function is to facilitate wizards to save money, exchange or rent a vault and other services!
Moreover, it is said that it is also the safest place in the world, because the bank's vaults are buried deep underground, and the vault doors must be opened by the goblins of Gringotts with special magic power. Ordinary people, even There is certainly no way for a powerful wizard to sneak into an underground vault that is protected by fairies and heavy magic.
"welcome!!"
'Honorable, distinguished Professor Anne, welcome to Gringotts again. Please go this way. Director Bogrorod is already waiting for you inside...'
When a little girl walked to the steps of the bank and once again looked up at the door of Gringotts outside and fell into a brief memory, the girl who just seemed to be frightened rushed into Gringotts Bank immediately. The goblin guard inside finally ran out and ran down the stairs huffing and puffing. He kept nodding and bowing and humbly greeting the little girl standing in front of the steps.
Under normal circumstances, when wizard customers come to the door, the goblin guards wearing scarlet and gold uniforms bow to the customers when they come. It is the utmost etiquette... but like now, it is still direct Running down the steps and humbly bowing to a little human girl wizard and leading the way was something that had never happened before, not even by the Minister of Magic himself.
Therefore, of course, the actions of the goblin guard aroused the curiosity and onlookers of those wizards who came in and out.
'...'
'Hey, whose family does that little girl belong to? Why are the fairies so respectful to her? '
'I don't know, but it looks familiar...'
'I seem to have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it. '
'...'
snort!
"Professor Anne, please go this way..."
The elf guard wearing a scarlet-gold uniform didn't pay attention to the human wizards pointing outside the door. He just snorted in their direction before turning back again and guiding the man with all his might. The little girl walked into the second silver door of Gringotts Bank.
The goblin guard led the other party into the splendid and spacious marble hall, until the goblin employees sitting behind the big counter began to pay attention and saluted here, and Director Bogrod also came up to take over his reception work. After that, the goblin guard bowed deeply once again and carefully retreated outside the gate of Gringotts.
To be honest, this elf guard who considers himself powerful does not want to be so humble to a damn human wizard, but...
Anyone who makes a big fuss in Gringotts, kills several goblins, kills the dragon guarding the treasury, forces the goblins to collectively surrender and has to pay compensation and apologize, and then nothing happens in the end, then it must be You can also receive the ultra-high-standard treatment like VIPs from Gringotts Goblin Bank.
After all, they definitely don't want to be beaten up again and hung upside down in the air with a hot flaming rope for a long time. Moreover, what those human wizards didn't know was that in Gringotts, among their goblin clan, they ranked the little girl's danger level at the highest level, far more than the Dark Lord Voldemort.
"welcome……"
"Professor Anne, welcome to our Gringotts Wizarding Bank!"
That's weird?
"We have all heard that you returned to Hogwarts not long ago... I just don't know how long you plan to stay in London this time?"
"oh!"
"Sorry, please come this way. Be careful that the steps are a bit slippery. We can go directly to the VIP lounge without having to queue over there..."
After leading the little girl into this splendid and spacious marble hall, and cryptically waving to the goblin staff who had stopped what they were doing and watched the little girl's arrival with inexplicable expressions, the goblin hurriedly resumed their work. The supervisor, Bogrod, respectfully led the little girl to another direction.
There was nothing that could be done about this man who was originally a gunman, one man and one bear, and picked off hundreds of goblins, dozens of guards and djinn in Gringotts, as well as the Aurors who came to support from the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore who finally appeared. There was no little girl, so how could Bogrod be so stubborn at this time?
No matter what, he didn't want to die, and he didn't want to be burned to ashes by the other party!
"Professor Anne..."
"I wonder if there is anything I can do to help you? If so, please feel free to ask me."
Therefore, after inviting the other party to their special rest room for goblins and respectfully pouring him a cup of coffee, Bogrod humbly rubbed his hands and stood beside him and asked carefully.
"Of course I'm here to withdraw money!"
(??????▽??????)
"Didn't I save a lot of gold galleons with you before and didn't take them away? Now I need to buy something, so I want to take them away!"
(*??︶??*). .:*??
Anne felt that this goblin seemed to be talking nonsense!
If she didn't come to the bank to withdraw money, did she come here to be tricked by these black-hearted guys? Last time, she had already dealt with them, causing a lot of noise and wasting a lot of time... Anyway, she didn't want to have to fight every time she came here, that would be too much trouble. !
Especially when there is nothing she is interested in here, she is even more unwilling to waste time.
"ah?!"
The goblin supervisor Bogrod suddenly felt something in his heart, and secretly said, "Oh no."
"Yes……"
"Yes, I remembered it. Professor Anne, you did save a large sum of gold Galleons at Gringotts two years ago..."
I remembered the huge amount of compensation I had to pay because I fought with the other party and lost, and then neither the Ministry of Magic nor Dumbledore, nor even the 'reason' of justice, were on the side of the goblins. Regarding the Jin Galleon compensation incident, Bogrod still couldn't help but feel a little pain in his heart.
You know, although under normal circumstances, they goblins can reasonably continue to 'preserve' the 'ownerless' vaults of wizards who have lost their heirs and heirs and refuse to hand them over, although they are still very rich, although even in the past two years, the Ministry of Magic They have begun to interfere in Gringotts' affairs and there is nothing they can do... However, anyone who pays out such a large sum of Galleons for nothing will always feel heartache.
"let me see……"
Bogrod quickly took out a ledger he carried with him and quickly turned to the page he least wanted to turn.
"Professor Anne, after deducting the storage fee for the gold galleons you have stored here, there are still 1,502,220 gold galleons and 117 silver coins left!"
"Excuse me, how much do you plan to withdraw?"
Thinking of this huge wealth, Bogrod couldn't help but twitch in his heart...
All of this, without a doubt, is all the fault of that colorless Griphook who did not regret his death! Of course, it's too late to say anything now. After all, the greedy Griphook is dead, and Gringotts also completed the compensation in time two years ago. Now that the creditor comes again, what else can they do?
Is it possible that he, Bogrod, still dares to refuse to return the huge sum of money that they have kept for two full years, and they have been lucky enough to think that they can continue to 'keep' it?
"Of course take them all!!"
??(????????)??
She didn't expect that she still had so many Galleons in Gringotts, so without even thinking about it, little Annie expressed her intention to take them all!
After all, she didn't really like these short and small goblins who exuded disgusting smells, and she didn't want to come to Gringotts to withdraw money every time. So, now that she thought about it, of course she wanted to go directly Take them all out and use them!
Besides, it’s not like she couldn’t store those gold Galleons in her own space bag, so there was no need to let these annoying goblins in front of her keep it for her.
"ah……"
"All, all?!"
Bogrod was stunned. Even he didn't expect that this little girl really planned to take them all? Then, he immediately thought subconsciously: Isn't she afraid of being robbed by others when she leaves the gate of Gringotts?
But soon, Bogrod reacted, because he knew that the little girl in front of him... It seemed that the other party was really not afraid of being robbed by anyone or any force? !
"Isn't it possible?"
Σ(⊙ω⊙`)?
Seeing the tangled expression on the other party's face, little Annie was a little puzzled. She didn't understand that if she went to the bank to withdraw the money she had saved, would these money-greedy fairies still dare not give it to her? Or maybe one of their own internal employees at the bank had her money misappropriated by Tan Mo and then wanted to default on the debt?
You know, when she was playing in another earth plane, she had seen a lot of reports on the Internet... And if that kind of outrageous thing really happened to her, Queen Anne, it would be impossible to say. Today she and Tibbers have to burn these bad guys again? !
"!!"
"No! Of course you can! No problem, definitely!!"
Seeing the impatience and suspicion on the little girl's face, Bogrod quickly turned back into the groveling goblin he was before, and there was no hint of displeasure on his face.
"please……"
"Professor Anne, please come over here. I will take you to your escrow vault..."
There is no way, the situation is stronger than the person, what else can Bogrod do except serve this little girl honestly, take her to the treasury and take away the gold galleons?
As for how the other party was going to take away that large sum of gold galleons alone, that was not something he needed to worry about.
After all, under normal circumstances, wizards always have a way, let alone the little guy in front of him who is said to be at the top of the wizarding world, and even Dumbledore is somewhat afraid of him! Moreover, Bogrorod had heard that two weeks ago, at the Quidditch World Cup camp, this guy had another conflict with the Aurors!
As for the result...
There must be no great suspense. It is said that at that time, a total of twenty Aurors were knocked unconscious on the spot without even a chance to resist. Dumbledore and more Aurors came later. Not even daring to say a harsh word?
——————————
While a certain little girl was heading to Diagon Alley, students from various houses and grades in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry began to gather in an orderly manner towards the auditorium under the command of their prefects and deans. …
"Hello!"
"Hermione! Where are you going now? Professor McGonagall asked us all to go to the auditorium immediately, saying that guests from our school are coming soon, and we must hurry!!"
In a corridor not far from the auditorium, Ron met Hermione who was running out in a hurry. Seeing the other person's appearance, Ron felt a little strange and suddenly called out to her.
After all, almost all the teachers and students were gathering in the auditorium, but Hermione walked out alone, which made him feel strange.
"Hermione?"
Harry, who was heading to the school auditorium with Ron, was also looking at their friend Hermione with a look of curiosity and confusion.
Of course, there was also a trace of envy... because the little fiery red phoenix hovering above the other person's head, he knew, was one of the pets that the other person had kept for two years. What the former Professor Anne gave to the other party was one of the only two-headed phoenixes found in the entire Hogwarts, and even in the entire magical world!
"!!"
call!
Hermione took a breath and allowed her phoenix to land on her shoulders before she explained:
"Is such that……"
"Professor Dumbledore asked me to go to the top of the castle to see if Professor Anne is back? Because a guest from our school is coming soon. She is a professor and one of the judges of the Triwizard Tournament. She must be You can’t be absent, so…”
"Do you want to come together?"
After a few explanations, Hermione extended an invitation to her two friends.
Now most of the students have gathered in the auditorium and sat down. If she were to go to the main castle of Hogwarts alone now, thinking of those dark corridors and spiral staircases would really make her nervous. She is a little scared! Therefore, it would be best if Harry and Ron accompanied him.
Even though, now she is actually accompanied and protected by her Phoenix?
'...'
'...'
Ron and Harry looked at each other, and both sides saw the eagerness in each other's eyes, because neither of them had been to Professor Anne's room, which was said to be more beautiful than Principal Dumbledore's room, so they I'm tempted now.
"Hermione, can we really go?"
"you sure?!"
Anyway, the guests from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry have not arrived yet, and thinking about it, it should be almost enough time. Moreover, the two people who were reluctant to wait in the auditorium so early were finally moved. .
"sure!"
"Speaking of which, Harry and Ron, you are already familiar with Professor Anne. She will definitely not mind, right?"
Although she didn't know if this was a good idea, Hermione thought about it and felt that Professor Anne, like herself, had stayed at Ron's house for a few days and was very familiar with everyone. I would mind small things like that.
So, after thinking about it, she took it upon herself to make the decision and sent out the invitation.
"Very good!"
“Of course we’re going too!!”
Being able to visit Professor Anne's room at the top of the castle is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so of course Harry and Ron will not give up easily! Besides, if it were on the top of the castle, when guests from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry arrived, they might be able to see it more clearly than their classmates in the auditorium. ?
It is said that the other party will arrive by extraordinary transportation, but they don't know whether the student representatives from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry will take a train or a flying car?
Or maybe they came directly by plane?
