Chapter 282: Spider Tail Alley
When school was about to start, Esther still had to go to Diagon Alley to buy supplies for school.
To be on the safe side, her parents went with him this time. Although Esther repeatedly assured that she was not a child, her parents did not allow her to go there alone.
She also knew that the current situation was turbulent recently and it was not safe to be alone outside, but she had not seen Draco for a summer vacation. She originally wanted to meet him in Diagon Alley, but her parents had to go with them. She also had trouble contacting Draco.
This made her anxious and a little uneasy.
She didn't know what was going on with the Death Eaters or what he was going through, so she planned to go find Professor Snape before school started after returning from Diagon Alley.
Compared with the lively scenes in previous years, although this year's Diagon Alley was still bustling with people, it was obvious that everyone was nervous and wary of their surroundings. The streets are full of wizards selling various amulets and defensive props. They are constantly selling to the wizards coming and going. Some people are dismissive, but more people will stop and take a look.
Everyone seems to realize that things are getting serious.
Although he did not drop out of school like the original work, he completed his study career at Hogwarts and graduated successfully. But the Weasley twins' joke shop officially opened at the end of this summer vacation.
As one of the shareholders, Esther naturally took her parents there for a spin.
The Weasley brothers' prank products are extremely popular and provide the most laughter on the street.
The small shop was crowded with customers. The Weasley brothers saw Esther from a distance, but because they were too busy, they really didn't have time to greet Esther as a shareholder, so they just greeted her warmly.
David glanced at the twins and then looked at Esther: "You have a good relationship with them?"
Esther took a box of nosebleed nougat and looked at it carefully. After hearing David's question, Esther said casually: "It's okay. I have invested in their store, so I count as their boss."
David and Letitia looked at each other in surprise, and Letitia said: "Dear, how much did you invest?"
Esther did the math: "I can't remember exactly, but it's probably about five or six hundred gold galleons."
"so much!"
David was shocked: "Where did you get so much money?"
In fact, not only this money, but also a lot of gold galleons were spent on custom-made broomsticks for Draco.
Esther silently hid the next words.
"My grandfather gave it to me," she answered honestly.
David looked complicated when he heard this: "It's really unfair. He was never so generous to me when I was in school."
Esther made a face at her father David and said proudly: "Because you are not as lovable as me."
David rolled his eyes at her angrily.
"I see that their business is very prosperous. As long as it continues, you can get a lot of returns on your investment." Mom Letitia seemed quite proud of Esther.
Although she also felt that old Mr. Main gave Esther too much money, fortunately, it was a serious investment in business and not spent on other things.
"Yes." David agreed and even said impatiently: "Your grandfather must be very happy. His favorite granddaughter has inherited his business acumen. I believe she will also be very happy to inherit his industry."
Esther glanced at him speechlessly: "Don't set a trap for me. You are still young and can definitely learn. I feel that my grandfather might want you to take over instead of leaving it to me."
What's more, she only likes to make money, but doesn't like to use her brain. This kind of business where she occasionally invests one or two and waits for returns is very suitable for her.
The father and daughter bickered for a while, then walked around Weasley's joke shop before leaving.
All the things needed for the start of school were bought, and her parents took her to make a few new school uniforms. She did not meet Harry and the others in Diagon Alley, nor did she meet Draco. Obviously, she was not with them. Came to Diagon Alley on the same day.
Just missed it.
The trip to Diagon Alley did not make her happy, so the next day, she couldn't wait to get ready to find Professor Snape.
Professor Snape's home is at No. 23 Spider End Lane. This is a place where poor people live, so the surrounding environment is not very good.
Esther walked up the dirty river and then entered a cobblestone road. At the other end of the road were rows of dilapidated brick houses surrounded by overgrown weeds.
The weather today is not very good. The sky is covered with dark clouds and the air is hot and humid, indicating that a heavy rain may come soon.
In this abandoned and desolate scenery, Esther's bright golden hair turned out to be the only bright color.
She walked forward along the cobblestones, turned at the intersection in front, and entered another almost equally dilapidated alley. The weathered street sign next to it confirmed that this was the place she was looking for.
She searched from house to house, and finally stopped in front of the house at the end. After double-checking, she knocked on the door.
No one responded.
Esther suspected that she had come at the wrong time, maybe Professor Snape was not at home.
She tried ringing for a while, but still no one responded.
Can't be so unlucky?
Just when she felt frustrated, the door suddenly opened.
Professor Snape appeared at the door with a dark face: "Why are you here, Miss Mayne?"
His tone sounded like he really hated being disturbed.
Esther said hello to him: "Good afternoon, professor. I want to find out something from you, so I came here."
Even at home, Professor Snape still wore dark robes, just like at school.
"I think you should clearly know how dangerous the situation is now, so your family seems to be very worried. They dare to let you run around at will." He mocked coldly.
Esther said: "Actually, I ran out secretly. I just wanted to ask you a few questions and confirm some things before I leave."
Snape twitched his lips and wanted to say something mean, but finally controlled his emotions and let her in.
Professor Snape's living room is not big and has very few things. Except for some sofas and other furniture, there are no decorations. It looks as cold and gray as him.
Esther looked around curiously. Of course Snape could detect this little move on her part, but since he had already let her in, there was no need to exploit this little move to make a fuss. It was better to send her away quickly.
He motioned for her to sit down, and then said: "Do you know that the Dark Lord arranged for Wormtail to be here with me? Do you know what will happen if you come to the door so rashly?"
Esther smiled at him: "I believe Professor you can handle these things well. Since you dare to let me in, that means it's not a problem, right?"
Snape sneered: "I'm just a Potions teacher, and you think too highly of me."
Esther did not refute this statement, but went straight to the point: "Professor, I would like to know if Mrs. Malfoy has come to see you recently?"
Snape was stunned for a moment, then gave a sarcastic smile: "Don't you know the future? Why do you still come to me to confirm?"
"Because I'm not sure." Esther answered him: "I changed the ending of Lucius Malfoy entering Azkaban, so I don't know if the rest of the story will go according to the original work, Draco... Will Draco become a Death Eater because of the Dark Lord's anger and accept that mission?"
To be on the safe side, her parents went with him this time. Although Esther repeatedly assured that she was not a child, her parents did not allow her to go there alone.
She also knew that the current situation was turbulent recently and it was not safe to be alone outside, but she had not seen Draco for a summer vacation. She originally wanted to meet him in Diagon Alley, but her parents had to go with them. She also had trouble contacting Draco.
