Hanging the Eye of God on the wand rest, Ye Ting smiled slightly, and then put the hood of his cloak on his head.

After doing all this, he stepped into the dim alley.

Although Knockturn Alley is closely connected to Diagon Alley, the scene here is completely different. The sunlight seems unable to penetrate this area, and the entire alley is shrouded in a thick haze.

The walls on both sides of the alley are made of red bricks. Obviously, no one maintains it here. Green moss grows between the bricks and tiles, and many red bricks have been corroded beyond recognition.

In the corners of the street, piles of abandoned garbage can be vaguely seen, and an indescribable stench drifts in the wind, which makes Ye Ting frown.

This alley has many shops like Diagon Alley, but the proportion of small stalls and vendors is much higher than that of Diagon Alley. The stall owners sit on the ground with a carpet in front of them, on which various goods are displayed, and shouting is endless.

But compared to Diagon Alley, the things they sell are much weirder.

“Baoyou Treasure Appraisal, a one-stop service, keeps you away from the troubles of black magic items”

“Second-hand books are on sale! Come and have a look at the latest Muggle novel”The Story of 105 Men and 3 Women”!”

“Magic wand, dueling weapon! There has never been any return record!”

Most wizards here are like Ye Ting, wearing black robes and hiding their faces under hoods, so Knockturn Alley has become a good place for all kinds of wizards to gather. In addition to black wizards, there are many strange guys here, some of whom are not even human.

In such a place, Ye Ting looked around all the way, interested in everything, showing his new style.

Even through the hood, others can see that this is probably a guy who ran from Diagon Alley out of curiosity to broaden his horizons.

This is equivalent to hanging a big loudspeaker on his head, telling everyone that there is a fat man. The sheep are coming!

Soon, he was being watched.

Just as Ye Ting was watching the owner of the”Baoyou Appraisal” stall deceiving customers and selling him an evil and expensive black magic item as a cheap imitation, a figure quietly approached him.

The man was not tall, about the same height as the eleven-year-old Ye Ting, with a pair of bow legs, dirty all over, and messy ginger hair that seemed to have never been combed.

When passing by Ye Ting, his shoulder hit Ye Ting hard.

At that moment, a strong smell of alcohol and cheap cigarettes hit his nose, making him sick.

“Sorry.”

The man hurriedly left a perfunctory apology and disappeared into the crowd without looking back.

Ye Ting shrugged his shoulders, said nothing, and left the stall silently.

About five minutes later, the ginger-haired guy hurried back to the”Baoyou Appraisal” stall, looking around anxiously.

“”Lescent! Leicent Futen!”

He shouted the stall owner’s name,”Did you see a hooded guy as tall as me passing by here just now?”

The stall owner Leicent was proudly admiring the black magic amulet he had just cheated.

When he heard the question, he didn’t even raise his head and answered slowly,”Yes, he was looking at my stall for a long time… What’s wrong? Do you have something to do with him?””

“This guy…he stole my wallet!”

“Stolen…your…wallet? Hahahahahaha——”

Hearing this, the stall owner no longer appreciated the amulet and just laughed out loud,”Mundungus, you are a habitual thief… and your wallet was stolen too? This is… This is the best joke I have heard this year… Hahahaha……”

“”Recent!”

The guy named Mundungus was touched in the sore spot and shouted angrily,”If you do this again, the next time I come across something good, I will send it to Borgin and Burke’s!”

“No… no! How could that old guy give you such a favorable price like me?……”

The words had an immediate effect. Leisente immediately stopped talking, but the corners of his mouth still couldn’t help trembling.

After a while, he asked,”By the way, were you robbed by someone else?”

“So what?” Mundungus was furious.”Just tell me where he went.”

“He walked deeper into the alley.”

Raycent pointed in a direction, and seeing Mundungus about to leave, he advised,”It’s no use chasing him, that guy seems to be a newcomer, and besides you, the Cotton brothers have also targeted him… You know the consequences of being targeted by these two brothers, so don’t even think about getting your money back.”

At the same time, the guy who Raycent said stole Mundungus, the unlucky guy targeted by the Cotton brothers, was humming a little tune happily, wandering in the depths of Diagon Alley, playing with the dragon leather wallet in his hand as he walked.

“Humph… the people in Knockturn Alley are really good. They are all money-giving boys, but they actually stole from me.”

In fact, the reason why Ye Ting acted so unscrupulously before was not only because he was skilled and daring, but also because he was fishing for money.

As a newbie in the magic world, Ye Ting is in urgent need of money.

With his talent inherited from the Rose Witch, he only needs to learn for a while to quickly unlock various money-making abilities, but that is all in the future, and the current problems are still not solved.

He is also a principled person and cannot do things like robbery and theft.

So, Ye Ting resorted to this bad plan.

He can’t steal from others, but if others take the initiative to steal from him or force him, he is also happy to teach these people a little lesson and charge a small”tuition fee”.

Mundungus is The first one to take the bait.

He was overestimating his own abilities. Not to mention that all of Ye Ting’s valuables were hidden in the magic bag, so he didn’t have a wallet for Mundungus to steal.

As a top magician, Linny’s hand speed and dexterity far exceeded that of ordinary people, not to mention a mere Mundungus.

This habitual thief in the original book hit Ye Ting, but he hit a wall and ended up losing more than he gained.

But while the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. At this time, two dark wizards were faintly following behind him, and as the crowd gradually thinned out, their tracking became more and more unscrupulous.

As he walked, Ye Ting suddenly turned around, and the whole person disappeared into a deep alley next to him.

The two black wizards rushed into the alley in a hurry, but found that there was no one in front of them.

“This should be a dead end. Where is that guy?”

“He did it on purpose. We were already discovered by him… He is not a newbie at all!”

Just as the two looked around, searching for the target, suddenly, there was a gust of wind overhead.

They subconsciously looked up, and then saw a black cat, a black cat wrapped in flames, falling from the sky and landing on the head of one of the black wizards.

The flame contained magic power. In just a moment, the flame became dozens of times more intense and engulfed the black wizard. He instantly turned into a fire man, screaming in pain.

“”Damn it! What the hell is this thing!? Get out of here!”

Although surrounded by flames, the black wizard still struggled hard, as if there was some magic item protecting him.

Although he was screaming from the burning, he still had the strength to beat himself, trying to drive away the black cat and put out the flames.

“Clear water is like a spring! Clear water is like a spring!”

In the end, his companions helped him and used several [Clear Water Spells] to put out the fire on him.

Before being soaked like a drowned chicken, the black cat nimbly jumped off the man’s head and ran to the side.

“Damn black cat, what kind of monster are you… My fireproof amulet!” The black wizard looked at the completely ineffective magic necklace in his hand with heartache and shouted angrily

“What am I? Am I not the one you are targeting?”

The next moment, they were surprised to find that the black cat turned into the hooded man they had been tracking.

However, the hooded man was not wearing a hood at this time, revealing a handsome oriental face. It was Ye Ting:”I didn’t expect that the residents of Knockturn Alley were so hospitable. They all rushed to give me money.”

“You… you are an Animagus? No! Even an Animagus cannot cast magic in a transformed state! How did you do it?”

The two dark wizard brothers were shocked, holding their wands tightly, and looked at Ye Ting warily.

“It’s just a little trick, sorry to make you laugh.”
