Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 264

In Scott's view, the Fidelity Charm is not so much a charm as an ancient ritual magic.

This ritual must be performed on a night when there is a new moon in the sky, and requires some magical ingredients.

Scott did the math.

Then, he said enthusiastically: "Just in time, two days later will be the night of the new moon, and I will try this magic at that time."

He looked again at the magic materials needed for the ritual.

"I need the moonstone to represent the moon, the blood of the invisible beast to represent the hidden, the rose to represent the secret, and the Wangchuan River to represent the forgotten."

Rimbaud said regretfully after listening, "The things you mentioned are not found in the forest."

Scott touched his chin, "If you use mail order, you must disclose my name. It seems that I have to go to Diagon Alley."

Rimbaud said: "Didn't you say that people cannot know that you have been to England during the summer vacation?"

Scott laughed, "Of course you have to pretend."

Having made up his mind, he asked Rimbaud, "Can you drive me to London, my friend."

"Of course there is no problem." Rimbaud said, "But you have to be prepared, this is a long-distance trip, and it will take at least three hours to fly at full power."

They set off early the next morning.

Scott blindfolded himself as usual, and took it off after leaving the forest.

Because he didn't want to be accidentally seen by people on the ground, Rimbaud flew a little higher this time.

The air aloft was a bit thin, and Scott had to slow Rimbaud down and put on an extra coat.

Looking at the scenery below, he couldn't help shouting a few times.

"Now, speed up!"

Rimbaud also tweeted in response, and then flew into the distance like an arrow.

Rimbaud has the blessing of the rune circuit, and his flying speed is much faster than that of ordinary birds.

Scott hugged its neck, blinded by the wind, which was not a good feeling.

He didn't know how long it took, even when he felt that flying was a kind of torture, Rimbaud finally flew over London and found the area where Diagon Alley was located.

Scott got out the [truncated arm bone] and his wand, and cast a Disillusionment Charm on himself and Rimbaud.

Then they landed from a high altitude and landed in an empty alley.

Scott rubbed his face that was numb from the wind, and after making Rimbaud smaller, he took off his coat and put it into a deformed lizard skin bag.

"Now it's time to pretend," he said with a smile.

He took two vials of Polyjuice Potion from the leather pouch, split the same hair in two and put it in the potion bottle.

Then he drank one of the bottles first.

"A bottle lasts for an hour at most."

Scott guessed that Boginbock's death was still under investigation, so he didn't rashly use the face of a stranger, but borrowed Roger's image.

He put another bottle of Polyjuice Potion in his pocket and strode out of the alley.

He crossed two streets and pushed open the door of the Leaky Cauldron.

Scott stepped into the somewhat dilapidated bar, and the lively atmosphere in the bar suddenly fell silent.

After seeing clearly who the person walked in, the next second, the bar became lively again.

But Scott still clearly felt that most of the guests in the bar looked at him intentionally or unintentionally while drinking.

"Good morning, guest."

Barkeeper Tom came out from behind the bar and wiped his rough hands on his dirty apron.

He stared at Scott and asked, "Are you a Hogwarts student?"

Scott nodded, "Good morning, Boss Tom, I just passed by here on my way to Diagon Alley."

Tom glanced at him again, waved his hand and turned to leave, "Okay, I have an impression of you, young man, you can go."

Hearing what he said, the other guests in the bar finally turned their eyes away from Scott completely.

Scott pretended to ask, "What happened?"

Tom suddenly turned around and approached him in a low voice, "Just yesterday, a wizard in Knockturn Alley died. We are all on guard for strangers who suddenly appear."

"Knockturn Alley?" Scott continued to ask suspiciously, "I heard that there are some terrible dark wizards gathered there, and people often die in that alley?"

Tom laughed. "You're right, boy."

Seeing that Scott was still looking at him puzzled, his voice was lowered, "But the person who died yesterday was not an ordinary person, it was Bo Jin Bo Ke, the owner of the Bo Jin Bo Ke shop, who was also famous in Knockturn Alley. Difficult characters."

Scott nodded half-understanding, "I see, but I just went to Diagon Alley to buy some potion ingredients."

"Of course, Diagon Alley is safe," Tom said with a smile.

After Scott entered Diagon Alley, he went straight to the Slugger and Giggs pharmacy.

Of course, he bought a bunch of potion ingredients and mixed them with the potion ingredients he needed.

"Welcome next time."

Scott walked out of the potion material shop with a big bag and a small bag, and packed them into a smaller leather bag.

He glanced at the streets of Diagon Alley and found nothing unusual.

But he soon saw a familiar figure at the entrance of Diagon Alley.

It was Snape.

And walking with him was the young dueling champion Jacques Yaxley whom he had only seen a photo of in the newspaper the day before.

Scott quickly left the entrance of the potions shop. In order to stay away from Snape as much as possible, he walked into the Florin's cold drink shop that Snape was least likely to enter.

It would be fine if it was someone else, but now he would never dare to get close to Snape, who was a master of potions.

Who knew if Snape, the Potions master, could tell he was a fake Roger on Polyjuice Potion.

Although Barty Crouch Jr., who pretended to be Mad-Eye Moody with Polyjuice Potion in the "Original Book" plot, was not discovered by him, Scott still didn't dare to challenge Snape's sense of potion at close range.

However, he still found it strange.

Scott, who was sitting in the ice cream shop eating ice cream, watched the expressionless Snape and the smug Yaxley walk into the shop where he had just bought potion ingredients.

How did Snape go with Jack Yaxley?
Before that, Scott thought that Snape's praise of Jacques in the newspaper was just a polite way of saying it.

It stands to reason that with Snape's character, he would not be involved in this dispute over the heir of the Travers family.

He was getting closer to Jack Yaxley at this time, didn't he care that others thought he supported the Yaxley family in this matter?

Scott did not believe that Snape would not have known the situation.

Although he couldn't figure it out, Scott didn't have time to think about it at the moment.

As soon as Snape walked into the Potions Shop, he stood up with the ice cream and walked quickly to the Leaky Cauldron.

His best option at the moment was to get out of Diagon Alley before Snape noticed him, to avoid the embarrassing situation of having to go up and say hello to the Professor.

And it was just Snape.

Scott would be even more embarrassed if he met other Roger acquaintances.

"Roger!"

But things always come out like that.

Scott heard a call from afar, and it was a girl.

He didn't look back, but walked even faster.
