Hogwarts card wizard
Chapter 61 The House Elf Incident
Gilderoy Lockhart was unimpressed by the Ron family, except for Mrs. Weasley, but they were happy to hear that they were getting a set of books for free, as it would save them a lot of money.
Then Lockhart started his autograph session, the scene was very hot, the pile of books like a hill was sold out in a short time, Kevin saw this handsome middle-aged man, except for the pile of books. In addition to the title, there should be a title - Women's Friend!Almost every middle-aged woman like Mrs. Weasley lined up with a book and waited excitedly for Lockhart's signature.
Kevin won't say anything about this, why not do it if he can make more money?
Mrs. Weasley finally saw her idol, and naturally she was unwilling to leave so soon, so she forced her husband to stay in the bookstore with her.Ron and Harry didn't have the habit of chasing stars, especially a middle-aged man, so they decided to go for a walk.
The three of them came to a restaurant in Diagon Alley, which was another property of Kevin in Diagon Alley.
"When did you buy Lihen Bookstore and this place?" Ron asked curiously.
Kevin joked about himself: "It's summer vacation, and I want to make some money in the wizarding world. After all, I have to raise children in the future and earn some money for milk powder in advance."
Ron smiled and said, "Hehe, raising an orphanage with your family's property is nothing."
Harry looked at the endless stream of diners and said, "And this is not a small amount of money. There are quite a lot of people in this store. It seems that your deposit in Gringotts will increase a lot soon."
"Hehe!" Kevin smiled, then handed a tissue to the two of them, and asked, "Can you explain why you are covered in dust?"
In fact, Kevin wanted to ask in the bookstore, not only Harry and Ron, but even the Weasleys were covered in dust, and their faces seemed to have just climbed out of a chimney.
Ron explained it was a hangover from Floo powder.
Floo powder is a very wizard-like mode of transportation. It should be used in conjunction with a fireplace and a Floo network. The fireplace is connected to the Floo network. Then people just need to stand in the fireplace and say where they want to go, and then sprinkle a handful of Floo powder. Wrapped in green flames, you can teleport to where you want to go.
Of course, there are two prerequisites. One is that the place you want to go must be connected to the Floo network, and the other is that the destination must be very clear. Harry was teleported to the flip-flop because he choked on the ashes of the fireplace. Back alley, luckily met Hagrid to lead him out.
Kevin joked: "Ron, it seems that your fireplace should be cleaned."
Harry's eyes lit up when he mentioned Floo powder, and he said, "By the way, Kevin. Why don't you go into the Floo powder business."
Although there was an accident on the first Floo trip, Harry still appreciates such a magical mode of transportation.
Kevin smiled.
In fact, Kevin had this idea when he learned about the magical item Floo powder, but unfortunately things were not as easy as he thought.Floo powder business has been in the hands of the company "Floo Pom" since a wizard named Igneta Westsmith invented it in the 13th century.
For hundreds of years, no one has been able to get their hands on it. There are two main reasons. One is that the formula of Floo powder has been controlled by this company. Floo powder is very easy to cause casualties.So the second reason is that for unnecessary casualties, the Ministry of Magic has very strict control over Floo powder, including the price. The price of Floo powder has not changed for hundreds of years, and it has always been two Sickles per scoop.
So when Kevin tried to understand this "Flooboom" company, he found that everyone knew that the headquarters of this company was located in Diagon Alley, but no one could tell where its gate was, so Kevin naturally can't close the deal
"Let's not talk about that. Harry, tell me about your situation. In the letter, Ron described the process of rescuing you very excitingly." Kevin said.
When it comes to this matter, Harry is extremely helpless. The reason why Harry's personal freedom is restricted is not as simple as Ron said in the letter.
In the beginning, the Dursleys learned that he could not use magic outside of school. Although they were no longer as polite to Harry as they were before the start of school last year, at least they did not restrict Harry's personal freedom.
But not long ago, a house elf named Dobby suddenly appeared and told Harry that someone was trying to kill him, and hoped that Harry would not go to Hogwarts this semester.Harry would definitely not agree to such a request, and he didn't know this house elf at all, so he didn't take it seriously.
But what happened later began to change. First, Dobby intercepted the letters of Kevin and the three of them, making Harry think that the three friends had forgotten him.The most uncomfortable thing is that the house elf used magic to smash a whole cake on the head of a female guest during an important dinner at the Dursleys' house, which caused Harry's uncle Vernon Dursley to lose his life. A big list.The result can be imagined, the Dursley family, who did not know Dobby's existence, blamed Harry for the source of everything, and Harry was locked in the room like a prisoner.
So there was the story of Ron and the others rescuing Harry later.
I still know a little about the house elf Kevin. This is a race conquered by wizards in ancient wars. Every one has to be trained as a slave as soon as it is born, and must serve its master from generation to generation.
These elves were so "successfully" enslaved that almost every house-elf took their master's word for truth.In their hearts, the master is everything, and it is a supreme honor to be able to work hard to death for the master.This kind of deformed loyalty makes Kevin unacceptable, but the fact is that the house elves regard this kind of unreasonable situation as Kevin's "human rights".For the house-elves, they can only be free if they get a piece of clothing from their master, but they regard freedom as a disgrace.
At this stage, many wizarding families have house-elves, not only that, even Hogwarts has a large number of house-elves, they are responsible for the sanitation, food and other sundries in the school.What makes Kevin most unbelievable is that although these "slaves" are enslaved by wizards, their own strength is extremely powerful.At Hogwarts, you can't use the magic of Apparition, but the house-elves can easily use it.
Hearing Harry's story, Kevin felt confused, especially what the house elf named Dobby did.
"It is reasonable to say that the house elf will only act after receiving the order of the master, but from the behavior of Dobby's self-harm, it seems that he is hiding from his master." Kevin said.
Ron guessed: "Could it be that someone deliberately tricked Harry to let the house-elf do this?"
Kevin shook his head and said, "No, if that's the case, he can order the elf to play a play, and if he wants to help Harry, he can also let the elf speak out directly, but what Harry said is called Dobby's elf kept killing himself."
Harry nodded and said, "Yes, he banged his head against the wall or slapped himself on the head with something almost as soon as he said that."
Ron was a little disbelieving, and said, "You should have seen the house elves in the school. Is there really such a violation of the master's order?"
Kevin didn't take it seriously, and said: "There are exceptions to everything. It's not surprising that a 'GM' appears after being enslaved for so long. But what I care about is the things it said about Harry. Is it true that someone is going to kill him?" profit?"
"Mysterious man?" Ron lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you say he ran away last semester?"
Harry was noncommittal, and said, "I've thought about it too, but the My-Know-Who is in a 'fog'. Will he have house-elves?"
Ron pointed at Kevin and said, "Didn't Kevin say that everything is an exception?"
Kevin glanced at Ron speechlessly, and said: "Then what I said is also an exception, it's okay. In short, I'd rather believe it or not, and pay more attention this semester. It seems that the new school year is doomed. calm."
Then Lockhart started his autograph session, the scene was very hot, the pile of books like a hill was sold out in a short time, Kevin saw this handsome middle-aged man, except for the pile of books. In addition to the title, there should be a title - Women's Friend!Almost every middle-aged woman like Mrs. Weasley lined up with a book and waited excitedly for Lockhart's signature.
