From Hogwarts Legacy to Hogwarts

Chapter 107 The Leaky Cauldron

Summer is approaching step by step, and every day is hotter than the previous day.Fortunately, the temperature was not so high in the morning, and the Leaky Cauldron Bar welcomed its first batch of guests today: an elderly witch with a vigilant face, handed a few Knuts to the boss, and asked for a last Inexpensive breakfast, wanted to eat it as quickly as possible.

Two wizards walked into the Leaky Cauldron Bar again. They were arguing fiercely, and the words "Dumbledore", "Fudge", and "Daily Prophet" appeared repeatedly in their conversation.The sound of their argument broke the silence of the Leaky Cauldron, startling the older witches who were breakfasting in the corner.

Seeing that there were other customers in the bar, the two wizards talked in a low voice.

"Mundungus, is it still the same?" Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron, stopped wiping his glass and asked the bearded and sleepy-eyed one of the two wizards.After getting the answer, they quickly served their breakfast and the latest issue of the "Daily Prophet" in the bar to the two wizards, and then went back to the counter to wipe their glasses.

Not long after the bar was quiet, another wizard appeared on the stairs of the bar. He was thinner than an adult wizard, his hair was long to his shoulders, and the ends of his hair were obviously knotted. He looked messy and his clothes were dusty.The messy appearance is very suitable for the environment of the Leaky Cauldron, like a guest who has stayed at the Leaky Cauldron for a long time because he has no money.

Several guests in the bar heard the sound of going down the stairs and looked back. Unexpectedly, they were frightened by the scars covering half of their faces and turned their heads again.The original witch finished the rest of her sandwich in one bite and hurried to the backyard of the bar.

"Good morning, Tom, a breakfast, thank you." The voice sounded like that of a young witch, "This sandwich is smaller than yesterday's, and it's cheaper." The attitude was very arrogant. A few Knuts were counted out of the bag and placed on the counter.

"Dali, the bread for each sandwich is made from the same mold." The owner Tom explained, worried that her words would be misunderstood by other customers, "If you continue to make excuses for paying less for breakfast, I will raise your rent price."

"It's just a copper Knut, I'll just give it to you." The young witch threw another Knut on the counter in a bad temper, and turned to see the other two wizards in the room looking at her, "What are you looking at?" !” The tone was very bad.

Mundungus and his companion looked at each other, and at the same time shook their heads and rolled their eyes: I don't know what trouble I caused, the scar on her face is probably not a small trouble.If you don't know how to restrain yourself now, you will cause even bigger troubles in the future.They continued their conversation in low tones.

"Dung, what did you mean just now that Karkaroff was killed by a mysterious person?"

"He is the Death Eater who betrayed the mysterious man. In the early years, when the mysterious man first lost power, he confessed the names of many Death Eaters. Now that the mysterious man is back, he must not dare to meet the mysterious man. I heard that in the That person ran away on the night of his resurrection, but unexpectedly he was chased and killed."

Although Mundungus's voice was low, his expression was exaggerated, as if he had witnessed the scene where Karkaroff confessed the names of the Death Eaters and the mysterious man chanted a spell on Karkaroff.

"But that's not what the Ministry of Magic said..." The wizard had a hesitant expression on his face.

"You believe that the Ministry of Magic doesn't believe me, right? You don't have to believe me, but you have to believe Dumbledore. Dumbledore told me all my news." Mundungus said, "Even if you If you don’t believe me, you have to give me the money, we agreed on the information price at the beginning.”

The wizard took out a silver Sickle from the purse with a hesitant expression, and put it on the table hesitantly.Seeing Mundungus reaching out to take it away, he hurriedly pressed Yin Sike: "What about Bagman?"

Mundungus picked up Yin Xike vigorously: "This news is for you. Of course, Bagman was killed by the mysterious man. He was also one of the referees of the competition at that time. Although he is missing now, maybe His body will be found sometime." The tone was sure, as if he had seen the scene where Bagman was killed.

The wizard got the news he wanted to know, thanked Mundungus, and left the Leaky Cauldron in a hurry.

Mundungus went to the counter again to ask Tom for a glass of butter beer, walked up to the young witch and sat down: "Little girl, let me teach you, pretending to be fierce is not what you just pretended to be. Let me check your scar first." True or false..." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand towards the face of the witch in front of him.

"Dung, are you drunk in broad daylight? Go to Diagon Alley to sober up. Dali, please let go of the wand in your hand. When you cut off that wizard's hand last time, it was splashed. There was a lot of blood and I had a hard time cleaning that day," said bar owner Tom.Although the tone was unfriendly to Mundungus, it was clearly reminding him.

After hearing Tom's words, Mundungus noticed that the witch in front of him had an extra wand at some point, and immediately put on a drunken expression, and drank the butter beer at hand in one gulp: "Oh, I'm a little dizzy. Why am I here? Tom, long time no see. Goodbye." Staggering out of the Leaky Cauldron.

At this time, the witch in the Leaky Cauldron looked at the owner Tom: "Thanks, Tom. But I didn't cut off the wizard's hand last time. I froze him first, and then his friend did a disservice. That’s why he separated his hands from his body. Besides, I cleaned it up for you that day.”

"Isn't that what you're supposed to be?" Bar owner Tom glanced at the witch in the shop.Their previous relationship didn't look as rocky as it had earlier.

The witch who had gone to the backyard earlier returned to the Leaky Cauldron with a small bag, but her small bag looked very heavy, and it took some effort to lift it up.She noticed that half of the witch with a horrible scar was staring at her, and quickly walked out of the Leaky Cauldron.

"Now people are getting more and more panicked, and the ladies who come to Diagon Alley for shopping don't come together as usual." Tom, the bar owner, wiped the glass, "Recently, there are fewer and fewer customers. Usually, this place is full at this time. people."

"The mysterious man is back." The witch narrowed her eyes, looked at the purchasing witch's back, and lowered her head to finish the last bit of breakfast.

"You also believe in Dumbledore?" Tom looked at the witch who was eating breakfast quickly.

"Not necessarily, see which newspaper pays more." The witch said, stood up and walked to the counter, and put another copper Knut on the counter, "Tom, thank you for what happened just now." Then put on the hood , ready to go to Diagon Alley from the back door of the bar, and did not give the bar owner a chance to reject her at all.

After walking in Diagon Alley for a while, the witch felt as if someone was following her. She grabbed the wand in her hand and was about to turn into a dead end.

Unexpectedly, before turning into a dead end, two people put their shoulders together: "Leah!" It was the voice of a young wizard.

"Stunned!" But what appeared at the tip of the witch's wand was a dagger.

"Uh, sorry, I got the wrong person." Another young wizard with the same face apologized, trying to move the dagger pointed at the tip of his twin brother's nose.

"Sorry, Fred, I didn't know it was you." Halia quickly put away the wand in her hand.

George and Fred looked at the scars covering half of their faces in front of them, and their voices were full of disbelief: "Are you Halia? Halia Malfoy?"
