Hogwarts: I have graduated before the system came

Obscure Books is located at No. 18 on the south side of Diagon Alley. The most famous book it publishes is "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" written by Newt Scamander.

Although this was Douglas' destination today, what he needed more now was a visit to Gringotts.

Gringotts is a wizarding bank run by goblins. Although in Douglas's memory, it is not as safe as the goblins describe it, but there is no other choice.

You can't keep a lot of Galleons in your residence.

And his manuscript fee is generally transferred directly from Gringotts to his personal treasury by Slane.

Unfortunately, although the road to Gringotts is not far away, it is not destined to be smooth sailing.

It coincides with the start of the school season, which makes the narrow street even more crowded.

This made Douglas can't help recalling the scene when he was first brought into the magical world by Professor McGonagall.

At this time, a cry woke him up from his memory.

It turned out that he followed the crowd to the door of Moran Book Company.

And that Senior Slane approached him while calling him.

"Oh my God, Douglas, I thought I'd never see you again.

When you come to Diagon Alley, if you don’t come to me first, where are you going? "

Slane's face showed three parts of real and seven parts of fake anger, and grabbed Douglas.

Although he valued this junior who was also from Hufflepuff, the two had cooperated for ten years.

But except that the other party was able to write manuscripts on time when he was in school, he has been running around the world after graduation.

Said to gather wind, the owls that Slane sent out several times either flew exhausted to Egypt, or flew to the far east.

Hard to find.

Seeing Slane come up directly and wrap his arms around his neck.

Douglas smiled awkwardly and cleared his throat hastily.

"Isn't this planning to go to Gringotts to get some Galleons first, so that I can treat you to a big meal, senior?"

Slane looked him up and down, and snorted disdainfully:

"Have a big meal? Which one has better cooking skills than you, a guy who can have his own private kitchen in the Hogwarts kitchen?

The last time you ate dishes made by yourself was when you just graduated, right? "

Douglas took the opportunity to loosen the bondage of the other party, and quickly took out a thick manuscript and a small snack from his carry-on bag.

"Speaking of Hogwarts, I want to tell you good news, I succeeded..."

Before he could finish speaking, Slane directly took what was in his hand, regardless of what it was.

Then he said with a sad face:

"I'll tell you about your good news later, but now I have bad news about you."

Douglas frowned. He seldom came to the wizarding world, so there might be any bad news related to him.

Slane put the object in one hand, then freed one and patted Douglas on the shoulder.

"You know Gilderoy Lockhart, the author of "Walking with Trolls" and "I Can Magic". I mentioned it to you before."

Douglas had a strange feeling when he heard the name again.

Although I snatched his professor's position, the two have never met each other, so there can't be any grievances.

Besides, Dumbledore said it all, he was the one who refused first.

Moreover, the two signed contracts with the same company, and there would be no conflicts.

Seeing that Douglas didn't speak, Slane said with a look of disgust:

"Oh my God, my dear Mr Holmes, you should pay attention to the affairs of the wizarding world.

That man was promoted by our old rival, Rumi Hart Book Company, and he even held a fan meeting at Lihen Bookstore today.

He even took out Dumbledore's letter of invitation to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts..."

Douglas thought what kind of bad news the other party was going to tell.

While avoiding the pedestrians on the side, he said:

"Don't worry dear Slane, what I'm giving you is the latest volume of "Master of All Professions", and it's an update only for the wizarding world version, the Muggle world hasn't started yet..."

Slane didn't pay attention to what Douglas said later, and his attention was completely attracted by the document bag in his hand.

Immediately afterwards, a surprised expression appeared on his face, and he slapped Douglas on the shoulder fiercely.

"Great boy, there is no better news than this, if you are willing to disclose the true identity of your author of course.

That would be even better..."

Having said that, Slane glanced at the surrounding crowd warily again.

He tightened the manuscript in his hand, and said in a low voice:

"I have to go back and watch the plot later, I'm not sorry, I mean to review it, and I'd better arrange to publish the book as soon as possible

I still need to do some publicity, after all, it was a long time ago that the last volume was updated, and this time, it might be able to drive the sales of the previous book again..."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Glass and ran straight to the company.

Douglas shrugged helplessly as he looked at the flustered figure.

I knew that this guy was urging manuscripts every day, purely for himself.

After all, the speed of publishing books in the wizarding world can't be said to be fast, and my own is already considered highly productive.

Three sets have been released in ten years, and one set has about twenty volumes.

I'm already very productive, so the publishing house understands that I take a break for a year or a half now and then.

Without Slane thinking about it, Douglas quickly came to the gate of Gringotts.

At the bronze gate of a towering snow-white building stood a goblin in a scarlet and gold uniform.

Douglas was glad the other side didn't shout:

"Welcome~ One male guest..."

The goblin led him into a tall marble hall.

Although there were quite a lot of customers inside, the goblin who guided him still helped him find a counter with no queues.

After verifying his identity, the goblin quickly took him to the vault.

A small vault in which all Douglas' possessions in the wizarding world are kept.

There are about 40 Galleons, and they have accumulated wealth for nearly ten years.

Other than that, there was nothing else in the vault that indicated wealth.

After all, in the old wizard's treasury, there might be all kinds of precious alchemy equipment and magic props.

It's a pity that the only poor Douglas has is Jin Gallon.

Of course, the money is not fixed, and some copyright fees will be transferred from Moran Book Company's treasury every month.

Similarly, Douglas's deposits in the Muggle world have exceeded 200 million pounds.

If it weren't for his unwillingness to disclose his information for marketing, he would not have authorized any peripheral industries.

Otherwise, his wealth will be multiplied dozens of times.

Just enough money to spend and enough food to eat.

Before the system appeared, he achieved the lying down state that a good-for-nothing traverser should do.

If the system hadn't imposed a deadline at the time, Douglas felt that he could still lie flat.

Soon he took ten thousand galleons of gold, and some scattered silver Sickles and copper Knuts.

Then, led by the goblin, they returned to the ground.

Step out of the bronze doors of Gringotts.

Looking at the bustling crowd on the street, Douglas suddenly felt a little dazed.

What was he doing in Diagon Alley?

Oh, right.

It was Slane who asked to meet. Unfortunately, the other party quickly abandoned him after getting the manuscript.

Douglas suddenly thought of a good place, a place called a junk shop.

This store is like a ghost market hidden in various cities.

Let people have the fun of Taobao.

During school, Douglas found some textbooks and notes of Hogwarts predecessors here.

These senior notes were of great help to his magic path.
