Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 454: Black eat black

The crackle sounded without warning on the path leading to Hogsmeade. A man in a cloak appeared out of nowhere. After looking around, he reached out and took out a mechanical pocket watch from his pocket. Glancing at the time above, he walked along the path shrouded in twilight.

By the time the Cloaked Man entered Hogsmeade, it was already dark, and the windows of the shops on both sides of the street were flashing. He walked on the main street for a few minutes, then turned to the side road, and a loud noise came from the pig's head bar not far away.

The pig's head bar is even more lively at night. Many wizards living in the gray area will come here to try their luck. It is not uncommon to encounter hawkers who smuggle, re-sell potions or other prohibited items in the bar, and even There are also wizards who use robbery as their sub-professional.

As long as there is anything you need, the bar owner can introduce you to the right seller or buyer. Selling drinks and being an innkeeper has become his side business.

As soon as the cloaked man walked to the door of the Pig's Head Tavern, he felt a lively atmosphere mixed with ale coming towards him. He looked up at the bar counter, looking for the dragon egg smuggler who had agreed with him.

The man in the cloak didn't see the promised person at the counter because he was late.

"Is that person here?" The cloaked man sat down at the counter and asked the bar owner who was wiping the wine glass with a rag. The guy who smuggled dragon eggs was the seller who was introduced to him by the bar owner.

"Jack hasn't come yet, you wait a moment." The bar owner glanced at the man who was wrapping himself tightly in front of him, and asked, "What to drink?"

"Whiskey," said the cloaked man hoarsely.

Actually, the man in the cloak really didn't want to do this deal in the Hog's Head Bar and was going to pick a good place for himself, but the Mr. Jack insisted that the deal be done here, so he didn't object anymore.

"He's late!" The cloaked man's temper became a little bit bad, he didn't care what happened to the **** smuggler, but he was concerned about whether he could get the dragon egg today.

A short time later, a middle-aged man with thinning hair hurried into the Hog's Head Bar, saying hello to the others as he walked through the loud crowd.

"Jack, what good have you got?"

Most of the wizards who come here for drinks know this guy who likes to smuggle, and some people greet him with a smile.

"Sorry, I hope I didn't make you wait too long!" the man codenamed Jack said to the bar owner, but he never took his eyes off the man in the cape next to him.

"What do I want?" asked the cloaked man impatiently.

"This is your cargo."

Jack opened the suitcase in his hand, revealing the contents of the suitcase: a dragon egg.

"It took me a lot of effort to get it. The agreed canon is not less than one." Jack closed the suitcase again and rubbed his fingers to indicate that it was time for the two sides to trade.

"Here!"

The man in the cloak untied his purse and threw it to the other party, "There is no shortage of one, but you have to pay for this glass of whisky. Who made you waste a lot of my time."

"Oh shit, well, this whisky is my treat, for Galleon's sake." Jack's face almost burst into a smile as he took the heavy purse.

He also handed his suitcase to the cloaked man in front of him, asking him to check the authenticity of the goods inside.

The man in the cloak took the suitcase and double-checked the dragon egg inside.

"This is a very rare Norwegian Ridgeback egg, and you will definitely not lose." While checking Galleon, Jack introduced to the buyer: "You only need to bake it on the fire, and the dragon egg will take care of itself. Hatch. After it hatches, you need to feed it a bucket of brandy and chicken blood every half hour."

Speaking of this, Jack's tone suddenly stopped, "However, I need to remind you in advance that these things are difficult to tame, and they are quite dangerous."

"Do you have any other questions?" Jack asked after counting Galleons, looking at the big money lord in front of him.

"No." The cloaked man closed the suitcase.

"Then... the deal is done."

Jack took out a few Galleons from the purse and placed them on the bar owner's counter as an introduction fee.

"Do you know who that mysterious guy is?" Jack asked as he watched the cloaked man leave.

"I don't know." The bar owner calmly swept Jialong into the wooden cash drawer next to the counter, "It seems to be a second-order dealer, but the price you offered is a bit high."

"No high, the deal is yours." Jack glanced at the bar owner, drank all the butterbeer in the glass, and murmured, "Forget it, I'd better disappear for a while!"

Jack, who made a lot of Galleons by smuggling dragon eggs, is very satisfied with the deal. The only fly in the ointment is that he is being targeted.

He notices a number of greedy eyes staring at him around him.

This is the downside of trading at the Hog's Head Bar. Once you earn too much Galleon, you will be easily targeted by some greedy guys.

As for the benefit, you don't have to worry about being hacked directly.

In the pig head bar, everyone will try to exercise restraint as much as possible. It is the rule here to go out to solve things. Although it is very fragile and cannot be guaranteed, everyone still silently abides by this rule. No one wants to be traded. robbery.

To get a dragon egg, of course, it costs a lot of Galleons.

Jack undoubtedly made a lot of money and became a fat sheep in the eyes of countless people. Blocking and robbery is also a sub-vocation of many wizards living in the gray area~IndoMTL.com~ After Jack hurriedly left the pig's head bar, there were several faces The greedy wizard immediately got up and followed.

A series of crackles sounded outside the Hog's Head Bar.

Half an hour later, Jack finally managed to Apparate his tail off his back.

"A bunch of rubbish, even you **** want to rob me." Jack spat on the ground in disdain, just as he was about to leave here. A spell shot out from behind without warning, focusing on Jack's back, and just as he was about to fall down, he saw a somewhat familiar back with a wand aimed at this side.

"It's...you!"

Jack's face was full of unwillingness and anger. He and Ben didn't expect the buyer to be black and white. After gnashing his teeth and saying his last words, the front bunk fell down like this.

The man in the cloak came out of the shadows and stared blankly at the fallen guy in front of him. He drew his wand from his hand and pointed at the unconscious Mr. Jack on the ground.

The next moment, an ominous green light shone in the darkness.

After retrieving his Galleon from Jack's corpse, the Cloaked Man used the Transfiguration Charm to turn the corpse into a stone, and dug a deep pit to bury the stone.

As for the other party's wand, it was directly destroyed and burned to ashes, leaving no evidence.

"What an idiot, didn't even notice the purse was being tracked."

The bright moonlight fell on the cloaked man. The faces of the strangers under the cloak were shaking slightly. If the students of Hogwarts were here, they would have recognized their Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at a glance.

Quirrell stepped on the spot where Mr. Jack's body was buried, turned and disappeared.
