Chapter 266 Knockturn Alley and Diagon Alley



This was Harry's first time using Floo powder, and he couldn't help but look at everything in front of him with curiosity.

Ron volunteered to give Harry a demonstration. Ron first walked into the fireplace, then grabbed a handful of green Floo powder, shouted "Diagon Alley", and immediately threw the Floo powder to the ground. With the flames rising instantly, Ron disappeared in front of everyone.

Harry looked at everything in front of him in surprise, and only came to his senses when he heard Mrs. Weasley's call, and then he walked to the fireplace.

However, when Harry used the Floo powder, something unexpected happened. It was his first time using it, and Harry was not paying attention. He was choked by the powder. So, the "Diagon Alley" that was clearly at his mouth turned into "Knockturn Alley"! Harry looked at the dim room in front of him, the various skeletons in the room, and the unknown objects soaked in unknown liquids. Harry knew that he had come to the wrong place.

At this moment, a severed hand attracted Harry's attention. Harry gently stroked the severed hand, but he didn't expect that the severed hand, which looked burnt, grabbed Harry.

Just when Harry was struggling to break free, a figure outside the house caught Harry's attention.

"Draco! Draco Malfoy! I'm here, come and help me!"

At this moment, Draco, who was walking in Knockturn Alley, suddenly heard a familiar voice. Looking in the direction of the voice, Draco also found Harry through the glass!

"Oh my god, Harry, why are you here by yourself?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Draco pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Draco's father, Lucius Malfoy.

Fortunately, at this moment, the severed hand slowly let go of Harry.

Seeing this, Draco shouted excitedly: "Cool! Harry, how did you do that?!"

As he spoke, Draco also reached out to the severed hand, but was slapped back by his father Lucius.

Lucius also greeted Harry with a smile, and then asked Harry and Draco to wait for him outside the door.

Afterwards, Lucius took out some dark magic items and planned to sell them, most of which were related to Voldemort.

The reason why Lucius was in a hurry to sell these magical items related to Voldemort was that in the eyes of the Malfoys, now that their son had boarded the big ship of the Wizarding Party, it was inappropriate to keep Voldemort's things at home.

If Wentworth suddenly felt like visiting Malfoy Manor one day and discovered that Voldemort's things were still preserved in Malfoy Manor, it would be very disadvantageous for his son.

So, although Lucius was still a little hesitant, under Narcissa's insistence, Lucius still followed Narcissa's advice.

After selling the things, Lucius took Draco and Harry to Diagon Alley. Draco asked Harry why he didn't reply to his letter. When Draco learned about Harry's experience, he was very angry, and Lucius said meaningfully: "Harry, don't forget, you are a wizard!"

After hearing Lucius' words, Draco spoke before Harry could speak:

"Father, we can't use magic outside of school grounds! Especially in front of Muggles!"

Lucius slapped his son on the head, then slowly said, "You don't have to tell me this!"

However, Lucius still turned his gaze to Harry and said with a smile:

"So, you need someone who can have a say in the Ministry of Magic to be your backer! Or, someone who can make the Ministry of Magic afraid to speak."

Hearing Lucius' words, Harry nodded thoughtfully.

At this moment, the three of them were attracted by the noisy voices in front of them. Draco stood on tiptoe and looked forward, saying with some doubt:

"It's Flourish and Blotts! What happened there?"

Just as Lucius took Draco and Harry into Flourish and Blotts, Wentworth also walked into Florin's Ice Cream Shop.

As soon as Wentworth entered the door, he heard Cedric's voice. Wentworth looked in the direction of the voice and saw Cedric, Green and Cassandra sitting in the store, eating ice cream.

Wentworth walked over and sat down. Green approached Wentworth curiously and asked in a low voice:

"You called us here. Is the Wu Zetian Party taking action?"

Wentworth nodded, then looked at Cassandra beside him and asked with a smile:

"How was your vacation?"

Cassandra ate her ice cream and mumbled, "Not bad!"

After hearing Cassandra's answer, Wentworth pretended to be sad and said, "What a regrettable answer. Aren't you sad without me by your side?"

Cassandra rolled her eyes at Wentworth, while Green and Cedric lowered their heads, looking at the ice cream on the table, as if there was some secret worth studying.

Then, Wentworth looked at the time, stood up, and said to Cassandra:

"There are many different kinds of gems in the Grindelwald family's vault. Are you interested in picking a few?"

Seeing this, Cassandra frowned and said to Wentworth in disbelief:

"Have you really decided?"

Wentworth nodded without hesitation.

Seeing that Wentworth had made up his mind, Cassandra said nothing more. Then several people stood up and followed Wentworth towards Gringotts.

On the other side, in Flourish and Blotts, Harry and others finally figured out why Flourish and Blotts was so crowded.

This is because Gilderoy Lockhart, the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts next semester, is holding a book signing event here.

Harold was also very happy to see Harry, and even couldn't wait to take a photo with Harry.

As soon as Draco and Ron met, they started to mock each other as usual.

Seeing this, Harry sighed helplessly, but didn't say much because he was used to it.

But Harry was used to it, while others were not.

The ridicule of the two soon attracted the attention of Lucius and Arthur.

Thus, the objects of the quarrel gradually changed from Draco and Ron to Lucius and Arthur. However, the Weasley family gradually gained the upper hand in momentum by virtue of their inherent advantage - large numbers.

Seeing this, Lucius made a few sarcastic remarks, and then, while no one was paying attention, he stuffed a notebook into the pile of books that Ginny had bought.

At this moment, Bill Weasley in the bookstore suddenly felt that the pendant hidden under his clothes on his chest became a little hot!
