All things are three at Hogwarts

Chapter 1354 The Leaky Cauldron

The Leaky Cauldron, this dirty tavern that fell into decline due to the dilapidation of Diagon Alley’s commercial street, is now revitalized due to the transformation of Diagon Alley.

Since it was used as a logistics center, the wizards working here will choose to have a drink here to relieve the fatigue of the day and solve their lunch and dinner. These wild-looking wizards made this small bar filled with smoke and very noisy.

Compared with the past, which was like walking through the city gate, with all kinds of unknown wizards going to Diagon Alley to shop, the current customers are more in line with the style of the original Leaky Cauldron. The abundant and cheap food is more in line with these. The needs of working class wizards.

"Those stingy goblins suffered heavy losses this time. When they saw their own gold coins being moved out box by box to pay for the surrounding warehouses, these little dwarfs turned blue, and all of them drooped their heads. ." The witch Doris Crockford, a regular at the Leaky Cauldron, said with a wide smile.

"Just losing money is considered lucky for them... They are actually very lucky. This is now a transfer station for delivering supplies to Muggles. There are not many magic items... and it happened to be off-duty time and no one died. Otherwise, it is not a problem that can be solved by paying money. Yes." Seeing that his words had attracted the attention of many wizards, Dedalo Dige shook his head proudly, and the top hat on his head shook even more.

"Yeah, it's a huge loss... I guess these goblins won't come to my bar to spend money in a short time." Old Tom, the bar owner with almost all his hair and a look like a shriveled walnut, said with some dejection, "The umbrella snails they like are probably It’s going to stink.”

"These stingy guys have driven the fire dragon crazy by themselves, and they have to bear the consequences of not taking care of it." Dedalo Digo said nonchalantly, "Think about it, if there is no Ms. Josephine Harris , how much harm will this fire-breathing dragon cause?"

"We should thank Sirius, he looks so majestic standing on the dragon's back..." Doris Crockford clasped her hands together and put them on her chest, and said with great admiration, "I bet. Without his help, how could Josephine Harris send the living fire dragon to the dragon farm on the floating city so easily?"

Tom shook his head at the argument between the two regulars: "That dragon has been raised to be very sick...but to be able to subdue a dragon so easily, the wizards from these families are really good at it."

Then the brick wall of the bar facing Diagon Alley turned into an archway, and the chatter in the store suddenly stopped - Alan and Hermione walked into this dirty, small bar, still holding their arms. A baby carries a giant snake.

"Oh my God, it's Sir Alan Harris!"

Seeing Allen, Dedalo Digg stood up and was so excited that he even dropped his hat. He squatted down shyly to pick it up, but the hat fell on the wavy river that was at least twelve feet long. He suddenly froze next to the giant snake that crawled into the bar.

Doris Crockford was also frightened and restrained and put her legs above the chair, as if she could avoid being attacked by the giant snake.

Although there are many wizards who have seen the whereabouts of this giant snake on the floating city on weekdays, they only pass by far away, and the route is relatively fixed. Nagini is usually only in the center of the lake. between the island and Granger's house. At this time, being in such close contact with this giant snake in such a small space, many wizards were inevitably afraid and tried to shrink their presence. Many people here heard from another regular visitor here, that is, Mr. Arthur Weasley of the Ministry of Magic loves to tell stories after drinking. He was attacked by this giant snake. The venom of this poisonous snake will cause the wound to be unable to heal.

At this time, Old Tom had come out from behind the bar and trotted towards Allen: "Oh! Principal Harris, Miss Granger...it's such an honor. What do you want to drink? Raw milfoil juice and butterbeer?"

Seeing that the wrinkled, toothless but still relatively familiar bar owner seemed to be getting older, Allen's voice was slightly louder than usual: "Uh... Tom, the main reason is that the child is hungry and hasn't come out yet. I brought milk powder...so I came here to ask for some goat milk or something..."

"Okay, please sit down for a moment, Principal Harris. I'll get it right away." Tom Tang's attention was also attracted by the little guy kicking his legs. He smiled kindly, "This is your first time here. They were just two little ones when we were in the store... In the blink of an eye, Principal Harris and Miss Granger's children have grown so big?"

"No...no! This is not our child! Uh..." Hermione's cheeks instantly turned red. She seemed to think that this statement would hurt Delphi and Nagini. She hurriedly added, "She is our child. ...Huh? No, I mean, she is our adopted daughter..."

"Hermione, Tom is not an old fool. He is teasing you on purpose." Allen looked at Hermione's reaction in amusement. He looked around and pulled Hermione, who was a little shy and a little happy, to sit in the empty seat. He came down and said, "Also, Tom, if you have some grog, can you use a basin to help me get some for Nagini? You may not know that she is an American snake? At least the taste is from there..."

"Okay..." Tom, who had returned to the bar, flicked his fingers and cast a wandless spell to light a fire in the fireplace next to Nagini to ensure its body temperature. The shop owner also neatly held a cup. The goat's milk was placed on the table in front of Alan and Hermione, and then they began to prepare drinks for the giant snake spitting out apricots by the fire.

"It seems that business is good, and the income has returned to the previous level, right?" Allen said, pouring the goat milk into the bottle and handing it to Hermione.

Hermione gently patted Delphi in her arms, and then the bottle began to feed her. Her hanging brown curly hair covered her and the raised corners of her mouth. Delphi had already hugged the bottle comfortably, looking like a The little squirrel was just eating pine nuts, its mouth was wrapped around itself, and its cheeks were bulging.

"Miss Granger looks like she will be a good mother." Old Tom praised, and then complained to Allen with his toothless mouth: "Recovery is impossible, business is divided into periods, and now this time is still Yes, when they go to work, this place will be very deserted..." He said with some nostalgia, "According to the previous rules, you kids like to enter Diagon Alley through me before entering school. Even if you don't buy anything, you can go in and out. The bar outside is also busy... Now I can’t even treat you to ice cream.”

"The store I promised before still counts. Tom, bring the Leaky Cauldron to the Floating City, and I'll find a place for you." Allen tapped his finger on the table, "Just move all the houses there. No trouble."

"Thank you for your kindness, but after so many years, I am more accustomed to this place." Old Tom refused with a smile, and he brought Nagini a basin of wine without showing any fear of her. "Since 1500, Daisy... Doddridge founded the Leaky Cauldron, and after she herself became the first owner, successive generations of us tried our best to build it into a passage connecting the non-magical world and Diagon Alley... As for me, I can't do it. Let the Leaky Cauldron disappear completely, and it will lose its meaning and become an ordinary pub in other places." Starting @@@

"That's exactly what I said..." Allen nodded, "Just count three bricks on the trash can upwards - count two bricks horizontally, and tap three times on the wall with a wand... This is our dream The place to start…”

With a pop, the emotion here stopped, and then there was another pop, followed by a hiss.

Alan and Tom looked at the source of the two sounds, and saw that Delphi's small mouth and Nagini had formed an O shape - the giant snake was caused by the effect of gurgling liquor to make people laugh loudly.

"She pooped, Ellen, you hold the baby first, I need to find a diaper..." Hermione skillfully pushed Delphi into Ellen's arms, and hurriedly dug into her pocket - it seemed that she was at home I took care of the child personally.

"Miss Granger, let me hold it for you." Doris Crocker keenly captured the way Allen frowned while looking at Delphi's diaper. Knowing that the principal might have some mysophobia, she volunteered to catch him. I took this opportunity to compliment and came over.

"Thank you so much, madam..." Allen immediately breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and began to smile at the witch who was carefully avoiding the giant snake.

"This kid poops after eating. Maybe he can become a straightforward Gryffindor in the future?" Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Dedalo Digg took the opportunity to pick up his hat at this time, "Principal Harris, you have been waiting for a long time." I haven't come to Diagon Alley anymore. What are you doing here with Miss Granger this time? If you need to run errands, I can help."

"Thank you, Di Ge...but don't bother." Allen looked at Gringotts outside the window, "We are just here to help Delphi get some things from her family's vault."
