Take control of thunder and lightning from Hogwarts

Chapter 4 Diagon Alley

"Can't sterling be used in the wizarding world?"

"In Gringotts, Muggle currency can be exchanged for gold Galleons. Five pounds can be exchanged for 1 Gold Galleon, but you can't exchange more than one hundred Gold Galleons." Professor McGonagall is in charge of admissions work all the year round. All aspects of the problem are very clear, but she doesn't think that Anduin can have much savings, maybe he has some pocket money that he wants to exchange.

"Huh, so that's the case, then I have money." As Professor McGonagall was surprised, she took out a stack of pounds, and licked her saliva with her fingers very skillfully, "Enough, those more ones. Just in time to buy something else on the way back."

Professor McGonagall took Anduin out of the orphanage and turned to a deserted alley next to him, "I was supposed to take a Muggle vehicle or a knight bus with you to Diagon Alley, but recently the wizarding world doesn't. Too stable, I can only apologise that you Apparated with me."

After speaking, Professor McGonagall drew out his wand and said, "Come and grab my hand Anduin."

Is the magic world unstable?Anduin passed his hand over as he digested Professor McGonagall's words.

Immediately afterwards, Professor McGonagall and Anduin disappeared in place with a "pop" sound.

"Shut up!" Anduin and Professor McGonagall had just emerged from Apparition and involuntarily started to retight against the wall. The feeling was so uncomfortable, it was like being thrown into a dark washing machine and turned on the strongest block. The top and bottom were squeezed inexplicably, and finally Anduin even had hallucinations, as if his whole body was shrunk into a small ball.

"Sorry, the first time I used this magic, it didn't feel good." Professor McGonagall stretched out his wand and pointed at Anduin. A soft stream of light appeared from the tip of the wand, and gradually merged into Anduin's body, which made Anduin felt much better.

Fortunately, Anduin usually has excellent physical fitness and a good sense of balance. After a while, he calmed down.

Is this magic?Why does it feel different from what I imagined? It would be too low to teleport without opening a magic gate. Anduin complained for a while, but his expression still showed calm.

"Where are we going next, do we need to teleport again?"

"That's not teleportation, it's Apparition and Apparition. This is a travel magic that is more commonly used by adult wizards. You can learn it in 7th grade."

"And don't worry, we'll be there in a minute."

Professor McGonagall took Anduin out of the alley where they appeared, walked on the street for a while, and came to a record store and a bookstore. Anduin has been observing the surroundings and found that there was an impressive opening in the middle of the two stores. There is a bar with a different style from the shops on both sides, and passers-by turn a blind eye to it.

"Can't they see this bar?"

"Excellent observation, Anduin, a lot of hidden charms have been applied here, Muggles can't see the Leaky Cauldron." Professor McGonagall explained and led Anduin into the bar.

"Professor, what do you mean by Muggles? Do you mean ordinary people who don't know magic?" Anduin felt absurd. He vaguely remembered that he had seen 'Harry Potter' in his previous life, but when When it comes to real contact, there is still no common sense.

"Yes, Anduin, we generally call ordinary people who don't believe in magic or non-magical humans Muggles. Because of the International Statute of Secrecy, Muggles don't know we exist."

I don't know whether the International Secrecy Act will continue to exist in the British magic world in the future. Professor McGonagall couldn't help frowning slightly when he remembered the current form of the British magic world.

"Really, then my parents are also Muggles." Anduin remembered his parents who passed away shortly after birth. He had checked them in the orphanage before, and he didn't feel anything unusual. They were ordinary people. Anduin used his magic All the talents belong to the reincarnation.

"Maybe some of your ancestors were wizards. Of course, there will be children with wizarding talents among Muggles. The responsibility of Hogwarts is to teach you to control your own magic."

While chatting with Professor McGonagall, Anduin and McGonagall walked into the bar. The bar looked very dark and shabby, with extremely poor lighting. There was a bar counter and several tables in the shadows of the corners.

And it seems that there is no business, the bar owner is silently wiping the glass at the bar.

"Tom, how's business going recently." Professor McGonagall looked familiar with the boss.

"What else can I do? It's getting more and more chaotic recently. Last night, the Aurors and them exchanged fire with them at Knockturn Alley. The explosion almost shattered my cup, and business is getting worse and worse..." Tom felt that he hadn't spoken to anyone for a long time, and he kept complaining when he opened his mouth.

"Come on Tom, there's a young gentleman here."

"Is it an incoming freshman?" Tom glanced at it and said, he probably wouldn't be surprised.

"Hello sir." Anduin, who was born in a country of etiquette, seemed polite.

"Come in, it won't be safe for a while," Tom reminded kindly when he saw the polite Anduin.

Professor McGonagall nodded to the bar owner, and led Anduin through the bar to the small patio behind the Leaky Cauldron, "It's Diagon Alley, and the purchase of learning supplies will be here in the future, see clearly. , in the future you have to come by yourself."

"By hitting a specific wall tile on the side of the bin with a wand, counting three on top of the bin and two on the side, you can enter."

After that, Professor McGonagall took out her wand and tapped the corresponding position, only to see that the original dilapidated brick wall kept flipping after Professor McGonagall tapped, and gradually transformed into a tall arch.

"Welcome to Diagon Alley, Anduin."

Anduin opened his mouth slightly to watch this scene, and became more and more yearning for the magical world. Looking over the arch, he saw a long cobblestone-paved street with various shops on both sides of the long street.

However, Anduin noticed that Diagon Alley was not as bustling as he imagined. There were some shops on both sides of the street that were not open, and there were still some pedestrians wearing trench coats on the road. It's on patrol.

"Professor, those passers-by wearing trench coats don't look like customers. Could it be that..." Anduin asked his own question. Combined with the conversation between Professor McGonagall and Tom at the beginning, an ominous thought arose in his heart.

"Those are Aurors, who maintain law and order here. The magic world has not been very peaceful recently, but this is the most prosperous commercial street in the British magic world, and it is still very safe. They are only on routine business, and don't worry, you are in Huo Gwarts will be safe, I promise!" Professor McGonagall explained to Anduin.
