"I'm so sorry!"
In front of him was a row of goblins bowing and apologizing to him.
But Xifa was still filled with anger.
What is this?
Gringotts is a wizarding bank, so how can it do insurance business for the Ministry of Magic?
No, the invaders did not choose to attack the Ministry of Magic. Instead, they destroyed Gringotts.
That’s all.
I am inside.
If you don't know "Mage's Hand".
If the intruder had enough time, his life would stop here!
It's a pity that I don't have enough strength and no backing.
These goblins were only polite on the surface, and Xifa didn't see the slightest apology in their eyes.
"Is an apology enough? How do you explain this to my grandfather?"
Elise, who had tidied herself up with cleaning spells, asked the leading elf dissatisfied.
The leading goblin thought to himself, although she and her grandfather are the only ones left in Elise's family.
But they were once from a distinguished pure-blood family.
Just an apology is too much.
Think of this.
The goblin said with a respectful expression and a contemptuous tone.
"Okay then, I'll make the decision and give each of you two 1,000 gold galleons as compensation."
"you!"
Seeing this, Xifa couldn't see that Elise had no way to force Gringotts.
"Okay, give us the money and we'll leave immediately! Just pretend what happened this afternoon never happened!"
Xifa pulled the red-faced Elise behind him and said in a strong tone.
"This little gentleman is still reasonable!"
The leading elf had a professional smile on his face.
————————————
"This is not the place to talk. Stay away. Let's talk as we walk."
Xifa knew that Elise must be feeling uncomfortable.
As soon as they left the house, Xifa took the initiative to speak. He wanted to enlighten Elise's mood.
"Come this way, you need to buy a bag to get something."
Elise's tone was calm, but there was no doubt that she was sulking.
Looking back, the door to Gringotts was no longer visible.
Xifa approached Elise and slowly explained the reason for her actions.
"I don't know what's going on in your family, but if Professor Dumbledore was really your grandfather, even if he wasn't your biological grandfather, the goblins wouldn't have this attitude towards us."
"Of course, I guess your family has been glorious in the past, otherwise the goblin wouldn't offer to compensate us with gold coins."
"Finally, I don't know if goblins have the ability to dare to attack innocent wizards. Even if they can't, I don't dare to bet on whether they will pay dark wizards to get rid of us."
"Based on this last point alone, settling the matter with Qian Ning Xi was our best choice at the time."
...
After listening to Xifa's words, Elise remained silent.
She put her hands behind her back, lowered her head, and kicked away the stones in front of her with her toes from time to time.
Just as Xifa was reflecting on whether he should continue to comfort Elise with words.
But she suddenly spoke.
"Actually, my name is Elise Fergus. The Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts is my grandfather."
"I grew up in the castle. However, my grandfather was busy at work every day, and Professor Dumbledore always took me."
Xifa was very sensible and did not ask further questions.
After a moment of silence, Elise continued.
"Our family became lonely during the Wizarding War more than 20 years ago. Now, we are the only two people left in such a large family."
"What about your parents? Where are they?"
Xifa was very puzzled. Judging from their age, Elise's parents had obviously survived the previous war, but from Elise's tone, it seemed that she had never met her parents.
"More than ten years ago, my parents gave birth to me and died in the battle against Grindelwald in Paris."
Xifa thought for a while, more than ten years ago, it seemed to be around the time of Fantastic Beasts 2.
"Père Lachaise Cemetery?!" The words blurted out from his mouth.
Elise in front paused, turned her head, glanced at Xifa with surprise in her beautiful eyes, and nodded.
"Yes."
"Sorry to remind you of sad things."
"It doesn't matter..."
There was another long silence, and the cheerful shouting and fighting around them seemed incompatible with the two people who were busy walking.
"arrive!"
Elise stopped and said.
Zhuo Lin's backpack
Xifa glanced at the store sign and thought to himself.
This time, he took the initiative to hold Elise's hand and enter the store.
Pushing open the store door and looking at the dazzling array of backpacks in front of him, Xifa fell in love with a black backpack at a glance.
Just when he stepped forward to take it off and try it.
Elise let go of Sifa's hand.
She came to the day-blue waist bag and stood on tiptoes to take it off.
When he came to Xifa, he pretended to put it on Xifa.
Seeing that Elise is determined.
Helpless, Xifa had no choice but to cooperate obediently.
"Boss! How much!"
After walking around Xifa, Elise was very satisfied.
She turned around and shouted to the boss who was watching the show at the counter.
"Eight hundred gold galleons!"
The boss said jokingly, he could see that Xifa was not well dressed, but business couldn't be given away for free, right?
Having guessed what the boss was thinking, Xifa could only smile bitterly.
Elise, if it weren't for the fact that she received a sum of gold galleons as compensation from Gringotts. I really don't have money to buy this expensive item.
"Quite reasonable."
Elise nodded and said nothing more.
Although, the belt bag is not covered with powerful protective magic, nor is it enchanted to prevent theft.
Based on the above introduction alone, the application of the traceless expansion spell and the weightless spell is enough to be worth the price.
"When we first meet, I treat it as a gift to you!"
After saying that, Elise stepped forward and took out the gold galleons to pay the bill.
Xifa also understood that this was Elise's symbolic repayment of the kindness of being protected by her.
This could make Elise feel better, so Xifa didn't say anything more.
After walking out of the store, the two continued walking down the street in silence.
"Elise, let's take a look at these magic paintings?"
"good!"
"Elise, let's go buy some candy?"
"Um!"
"Elise, let's go take a look at the broomsticks?"
"Hmph~"
...
Xifa was a little troubled, but it seemed that Elise was really interested.
For this reason, he could only sigh silently in his heart.
Don't guess what a girl is thinking!
The temporary separation is just for the sake of meeting each other better.
As evening approaches, a few stars can already be seen in the eastern sky.
The two returned to the Leaky Cauldron Bar where they first met.
Elise transferred all of Xifa's belongings to Xifa's pocket.
"When you get home, remember to ask your owl to write me a letter."
Before Xifa could ask where Elise's home was.
Standing in front of Xifa, she suddenly stepped forward and pecked Xifa's cheek.
Then ignore Xifa who stayed where he was.
He turned around and trotted over to the fireplace in the Leaky Cauldron without looking back.
"Hogwarts!"
In a burst of fire.
Elise disappeared in front of her.
Xifa actually felt a little disappointed, and also a little happy.
But in all these moods, when he walked out of the Leaky Cauldron, he called to his snowy owl and squatted on his shoulder.
When we face reality, everything disappears.
It was so late that all buses to the outskirts of the city were suspended.
How should I get back to the orphanage? !
Xifa slapped his forehead suddenly!
