Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 1078: There is a problem
? To some extent, the magic of wizards is the accumulation of knowledge, just like Muggle science.
People often say that knowledge is wealth.
Since ancient times, the growth of every wizard has been inseparable from the provision of knowledge. Regardless of the level of talent, only by drawing on the strength of the predecessors can he move forward.
However, not everyone is willing to share their valuable knowledge.
Not to mention that the number of ancient wizards is far less than it is now. Even in modern times, the inheritance of knowledge is still a lot of obstacles. In the entire global magic world, there are very few places that can set up a semi-public library, and even some magic schools expressly prohibit the borrowing of books by objects other than school teachers and students.
As for the storefronts like "Diagon Alley Lihen Bookstore"-what they sell is basically textbooks and ordinary publications. It is difficult to get magic books that really carry important content. found.
I'm looking for some magic books to buy, so I might as well go to a thrift store. Maybe it's more likely to get something.
So, where are there more magic books that are really valuable?
Undoubtedly, apart from the contributions of the founders like Hogwarts, and the organizations or forces that have been collected by generations of professors, I am afraid that those big families with the same long history will have Treasured.
It's a pity that if you want the descendants of the cherished family to take out the book collection and share it with others, it might be more difficult for them to accept than killing them!
"...But Old Barty really did it this time."
Maca took Hermione and others, followed the little guy leading the way, and watched all the way.
Although the name of this bookstore sounds unusually unremarkable, the storefront even makes people feel a bit "simplistic". But once you walk into it, you can immediately experience the beauty of being in a sea of knowledge.
Different from the unassuming facade outside, the non-marking stretch curse was applied to it, and it seemed that the space was at least several times larger than what everyone expected.
In this huge indoor space, bookshelves are already full, and rows of books continue to the depths.
Maca was thinking, this time, Old Barty probably moved most of the books stored in the ancient Crouch family.
It's probably that the scene in the library is so amazing that Ron, who was still complaining about it just now, couldn't help but close his mouth at this time.
After a while, Maca and other five people followed the little girl in her early ten years to the deepest part of the library. When everyone saw a large counter table, they saw the little girl rushing over immediately.
"Grandpa! A visitor said he came to see you--"
In fact, the old man who is looking down at the book wearing gold glasses has already raised his head long ago. When he found that it was Maca who was walking towards him, he couldn't help but stood up.
"Mr. McLean!" Old Barty took off the glasses from the bridge of his nose and put them aside, and said in surprise, "I just wrote you a letter. I didn't expect you to come so soon-I know you must I’m very busy, I’m just opening a library, you can come anytime!"
I remember that when I saw Old Barty in the principal’s office last time, although his hair had become a little grey, it was far from the current. It seems that the death of his son Barty Jr. made him much older all of a sudden.
"Because morning and evening are the same, I will come and watch as soon as I have time." Maca smiled and said, "For me, there is nothing more tempting than knowledge!"
After shaking hands with Old Barty across the table, Maca turned to introduce him:
"These are all Hogwarts students-Ron Weasley, Neville Longbottom, Hannah Abbott, and Hermione who loves books very much like you and me. Miss Granger."
The reason why he would use "the same as you and me" to describe it is precisely because he has long known old Barty.
He knew that this high-ranking official who had held several directorships in the Ministry of Magic was not only proficient in many languages, but his magical power was not low.
If it hadn't been his own son who had attacked him, it would be difficult for ordinary people to take him down.
And this dignified old man, like his son Batty Jr., usually likes to read.
"Come, please sit down! Come here to sit..."
In the warm invitation of the old Barty, Maca and others followed him to the rest area not far away and sat down. Seeing that the little girl was always by her side, Maca couldn't help but smile and said:
"Mr. Crouch, are you planning to start with the subtleties and let Muggles try to live in the magical world... Don't you worry that the Ministry of Magic will trouble you?"
Old Barty adopted Muggle orphans. Obviously, this is impossible to tell anyone casually. Maca learned about it only after receiving his letter.
And to say that Barty’s bold behavior is undoubtedly a violation of certain regulations in the International Secrecy Act.
"Someone has to try, right?"
After the house elves brought some tea, Old Barty smiled indifferently:
"Although I have resigned from the Ministry of Magic, the relationship I left with when I was working is still not severed... Besides, I am just an ordinary citizen now, the guys who looked at me unpleasantly. , Now I guess I don’t even have the time to look at me!"
"Well, I hope your attempt will go well!" Maca nodded and said, "I also hope that this child can live happily in the magic world-Muggles and wizards resume their mixed living, this must be a future Trend, at least I think your approach is not wrong."
Maca has more than that.
Earlier, the Queen of England and the old bishop had repeatedly considered this aspect. Obviously, they had the same long-term vision.
However, their ideas were so radical that Maca decisively refused the invitation at the time.
In comparison, Barty’s approach is obviously much more tactful. Even if he fails in the end, he, the last heir of the Crouch family, will not suffer unbearable losses.
"If this child encounters any difficulties in the future, you can come to me at any time, and I will help as much as possible."
After thinking a little bit, Maca looked at the little girl standing behind the old Barty sofa and smiled and gave such a promise.
Of course, the kid couldn't understand too much, but the old Barty could understand the preciousness of Maca's promise-the future of this young man is simply limitless.
"Thank you, Mr. McLean!"
Old Barty turned around, patted his adopted granddaughter's arm, and gave a slight urge. The little girl was also unusually obedient. Seeing her grandfather asked herself to thank each other, she said thank you to Maca without saying a word.
Later, Barty was jokingly and authentic again:
"Mr. McLean, don't forget, I also adopted a boy!"
When Maca heard this, she couldn't help but shrugged with a smile:
"Of course, both children-if you have any trouble that can't be solved in the future, you can come to me."
After that, the two casually chatted about some current topics in the British magical world. Even Hermione followed the ideas of the two to express their own opinions, and they were unanimously praised.
It's because Ron and the others don't care much about current affairs, so they can listen to them as boring as they are, but they are really embarrassed to leave the meeting casually, and they don't think about how uncomfortable they are.
Fortunately, Maca is not here purely to reminisce with the old Barty. After he offered to take a turn in this "library room", Ron and the three of them were finally relieved.
Not long after, between the many bookshelves, Maca took Hermione and the others and strolled around with great interest.
To be honest, this is indeed a collection of books moved from Crouch's house. Even the most valuable of them, or magic books about black magic, must have not been shipped, just ordinary books in various subjects are enough to surprise people.
Therefore, not only Maca and the others, but also many adult wizards are also strolling lightly everywhere.
It's just...Of course, it's absolutely incomparable with Hogwarts library.
After a few of them were used to visiting the school library, which has an extremely rich collection of books, they just came here to look for them again to see if there are any books and materials they haven't seen before.
Just as five people were looking at a few books in the aisle of two rows of bookshelves, Hermione suddenly became curious and authentic:
"Maca, why do you seem to be familiar with Mr. Crouch? Did you have any friendships before?"
"Friendship?"
When Maca heard this, he paused for a while with his hand turning the pages, and then shook his head.
"It's nothing special... well, it happened to save his son's life for him!"
He said this sentence very lightly, and after saying this sentence, he did not continue to explain anything, but handed the book in his hand to Hermione.
When Maca said that this book might be suitable for her to read, Hermione didn't ask any more questions.
After all, from Hermione's point of view, Maca saved a person or something. This seems to be a normal thing~IndoMTL.com~ Over the years, the number of people he saved has long been counted.
So, about another half hour passed.
Maca greeted everyone to talk to Old Barty together, and then they walked out of the newly opened "library house" in Diagon Alley, and took a good stroll elsewhere.
When the big guys are tired of having fun and walking, it’s almost time for dinner.
But when Maca took the four people to the Broken Cauldron Bar to prepare for dinner, Hermione and the others discovered that there were already several familiar figures waiting for their arrival.
"Maca, have you seen the old Barty?"
"Well, Sirius," Maca smiled at Hermione next to her, and then bluntly said, "Although it is not quite the same as Lupin's estimate, there is...there is a problem."
