Chapter 725 Inside and outside the window
Ginny and the other two followed quietly with the help of the crowd and cabinets. Everyone was attracted by the goods of Fred and George. The childish behavior of these three wizards who were not too young and were playing stealth games like house plays are not too conspicuous in this trick shop.
However, when Hermione looked up to find Ginny, she found that the three of them had gathered together and had a rather unnatural action. She put down the goods in her hands and walked towards them.
"What are you doing?" Hermione asked strangely.
"Look, Hermione, Lucius and Pansy, they are going out." Ginny pulled Hermione over and whispered, then quickly squeezed past the cheerful customers with her somewhat confused Hermione and others, and half-squatted down and began to move towards the store door with the cover of the counter.
Lucius, who had already arrived near the store door, looked out the situation outside the store through the glass, and then he pushed the store door open for Pansy. When Pansy passed by him, Lucius turned his eyes and looked through the crowd in the store, and met with Alan's gaze on the other side of Mr. Clever Hand in the distance. Lucius raised his chin and pointed it downwards, and then sneaked away from the laughing shop with Pansy.
When Lucius and the others left the door, Harry and his group quickly came to the door. Through the window, they saw the figures of the two walking hurriedly on the street.
"I said, what are you doing? Why do we follow Lucius?" Hermione, who was pulled over, had the opportunity to ask the question she had been asking just now.
Ron looked at Hermione with a look that you didn't understand anything: "Lucius didn't take Draco but walked alone with Pansy. This is really abnormal. You're not curious?"
When Ginny heard her brother's question, she suddenly remembered the love novels about some taboo colors in the ancient pure blood family I saw at the counter of the Witch Magazine. This made Ginny's face flushed and her face turned red as if she was like when she saw a boy who survived the disaster when she was a child.
"Come on." Harry rushed out of the door, Ginny and Ron followed closely, but when Hermione followed them out of the door in a daze, Penelo grabbed and stayed. Penelo raised his delicate chin and pointed to the direction where Ginny and the others left, "I said, what are you doing? Why are you following Lucius?"
"I don't know." Hermione was a little annoyed when she heard the familiar question. She said to Penelo in anger: "Believe me... I just asked the same question."
Seeing Lucius and Pansy gradually disappearing from the corner of the street, Ginny turned her head and saw that Hermione was still being pulled by Penelo. Harry urged: "Hurry, don't lose your target." The three of them didn't care about Hermione and hurriedly chased after her.
Lucius Malfoy looked around and took Pansy Parkinson and froze into the entrance of the Overturn Alley. From the entrance of the Overturn Alley, it was different from Diagon Alley, and it seemed that there were some people in it. Even if there were one or two suspicious wizards, they were all in a hurry.
Harry and the wizards inside left, and they also entered the entrance. Then Harry looked around and made sure that no one was paying attention to them. So he took out his invisible cloak from his bag and shouted to the others: "Come in quickly, come in quickly."
"Oh... we can't go to the Overturn Alley, and it doesn't seem good to explore other people's privacy like this... Harry?" Ginny asked hesitantly.
"Ginny, hurry up!" Ron, who had already entered, urged his sister, "And wasn't this stalking the first one you started?!"
Three little wizards wore in invisible clothes and walked through the narrow alley and entered the overturned alley.
But now the prosperity of this small street and Diagon Alley, which is closely related to the black magic, and the lively and dangerous things in Harry's memory when he accidentally entered the game. In the overturned alley, there is very little traffic outside the Aurors who are shopping and patrolling. They look into the windows while walking, as if there are some customers in each store.
Harry guessed that during this special period, people would buy black magic products. Even if these things on the surface were legal goods, they would still be suspected by the Aurors if they were Death Eaters. Obviously, even if they were not Death Eaters, the wizards who liked to buy these things obviously could not withstand the Aurors' detailed investigation.
Harry and the others dodged and followed Lucius and Pansy, and saw them entering the Bojinbok store. The door closed with a loud bang, and the lights of the Bojinbok store lit up the dark area.
"My father used to say that this is the largest store in the Overturn Alley. It specializes in selling black magic objects. Some of the products are very dangerous. The owner of the shop, Mr. Bojin, also collects all kinds of strange and evil things. The things in his shop are very popular with the dark wizards. Almost every item contains unknown dangerous powers." Ginny looked relieved after watching Lucius and Pansy enter a store called selling black magic, and returned to a chatty state.
Unlike the Weasley brother and sister, Harry is not actually the first time he has seen the Bojin Bock store. He said: "When I made a mistake in using Floor powder during the summer vacation before the start of school in the second grade, I was sent to the fireplace of this store. Let's go."
Ginny immediately stopped Harry who wanted to continue following up. She pointed to her ankle, "If we go in, people will see our feet! Maybe someone noticed it just now, but they didn't care about us."
Harry followed his girlfriend's gesture and noticed that the hem of the invisible cloak was tilted around their ankles. Now, they have grown up a lot, and it is indeed much more difficult for the three of them to hide under the invisible cloak together than when they were in the lower grades before.
"Even if we can cover us, we can't go in!" Ron also had the same opinion as Ginny. When he waited for his friends and sister to look at him, he added, "When Percy and his father were chatting before, I heard them say that the Bojin Bok store seemed to be robbed of treasures from it by a wizard in our first grade. Mr. Bokin had problems with his business and did not report it to the Ministry of Magic. He only strengthened the defense measures of the store in the next few years. Percy said that when Auror used their cloak that could cast the magical curse to sneak into the store for investigation, the invisibility effect was discovered as soon as he entered the store. Harry, although your invisibility effect will not be removed, we will basically be discovered if we go in like this. Although Mr. Bokin did not dare to do anything to Auror, we..."
Harry nodded in anger. He looked around anxiously and suddenly widened his eyes, then pointed to the roof of the house next to Bojin Bock Store. Ginny and Ron turned sideways and looked up. It was facing the window at the top of Bojin Bock Black Magic Store. You could see the situation inside the store through the glass window of the plaid.
So the three of them tried their best to climb up quietly. They snatched the sharp roof of the house with their hands and peeked into the situation inside the store through the glass window.
Looking in through the window, Lucius and Pansy stood with their backs to them, behind the big black cabinet. When Harry was misrepresented to this store in the second grade, he had avoided the Malfoy and his son.
Judging from Lucius' gesture, he was talking with interest, and the shopkeeper Mr. Bojin, a man with shiny hair and a stubborn figure, was standing in front of Lucius at this moment. The expression on his face was very strange, mixed with resentment and fear. At this time, they saw Pansy's expression becoming a little relaxed, contrary to the paleness before.
"I would have liked to hear what they were saying!" Ginny looked a little disappointed when she could not hear anything. "We can!" Harry took out the pair of retractable ears he had asked for just now from his bag. Although he didn't plan to get the twins' stuff for free, he didn't have to hurry to return the stuff back in a hurry.
Ron turned his attention back at this time, and he complained with some scent, "Hmph, George and Fred didn't plan to give me anything..."
"Great..." Ginny started to cheer and was covered by Ron's mouth, while Harry untied the long, flesh-colored strings and began to control them, just to the roof and walls, so that his ears could reach outside the crack of the window, "Oh, I hope this window has not been disturbed..."
"No!" Ginny said happily, "Listen!"
They put their heads together and listened attentively on the rope head of the string, Lucius's habitual pretentious voice was loud and clear, as if he turned on a Wizard Radio.
"…Do you know how to fix the other one?"
"Maybe," said Bojin, who, from his tone, seemed reluctant to make a clear statement, "but I need to take a look first. Why don't you bring it to the store?"
"I can't," Lucius said, "it has to stay where it is. You just have to tell me how to fix it."
Harry saw Bojin licking his lips nervously.
"Oh, I'm afraid it's hard to say it without seeing it with my own eyes, and there may be no way. I can't guarantee anything."
"No?" Lucius said, Harry knew he was sneering when he heard his tone, "maybe this will give you more confidence."
Lucius approached Bojin, and the big cabinet blocked his body. Harry, Ron and Ginny quickly lay on the roof and tried to move to the other side carefully to prevent Lucius from disappearing from sight, but they could only see Bojin, and he looked very frightened.
"Dare to tell others," Lucius said, "and you can't afford to take care of it. Do you know Bellatrix, Black, Lestrange and Fenriel Greybock? They will come to you from time to time to ask for advice to see if you are focusing on solving this problem."
Bojin's pupils suddenly magnified a lot, and he looked a little afraid, but he still tried his best to maintain a flattering smile and replied to Lucius: "No need..."
"It's up to me," Lucius said, then took out a cloth pocket from his robe and threw it to his son's girlfriend. "Pancy, help me put this intact, we have to hurry up."
Harry and the others couldn't help but look forward, trying their best to see what they were planning to take away, but the shop owner Mr. Bojin seemed to feel someone peeping. He walked forward a few steps and looked up to look. Harry and the other two quickly retreated and hid behind the eaves. Mr. Bojin turned his head suspiciously and looked outside the window for a long time. Mr. Bojin pulled down the black curtain, blocking the window, blocking Harry and the others' vision. As the curtain was put on a protective spell, the telescopic ear could no longer convey any sound inside.
After a while, the bell on the door of the Bojinboke store rang, Lucius strode out of the store, Pansy followed behind him, looking proud and fulfilled.
In the store, Bojin put away the curtain again. Harry and the others found that the owner froze and motionless. The false smile on his face disappeared, and his expression seemed very worried.
In the Weasley Magic Trick House, Allen also noticed Hermione and Penelo who were talking outside the door through the window, and walked out the door and asked, "What are you talking about?"
