Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1156 The Story of Paris (9)

  "How did you know that there is a water dragon under Paris?" Before coming, Severus asked Pomona in the sunny library.

  The newly built National Library in France has a strange place. Books that need to be protected from light are placed in a sunny, glass box-like tall building, while readers who need light to read must be in the underground reading room, which is illuminated by artificial light sources.

"That is Newt’s guess. He found a parasite that only grows on water dragons in the eyes of a man named Kama." Pomona said, "but he was busy looking for Credence at the time. , Did not investigate this matter."

   "Kama? Joseph Kama?" Severus asked.

   "Who else is there but him?" Pomona curled her lips and took a sip of iced coffee.

  Severus began to think.

   "What are you thinking?" Pomona asked.

"I'm thinking about how Kama got the parasite." Severus said slowly. "Cauus Lestrange was the last male heir to the Lestrange family. After his death, The Leestrange family in France was shattered by the death of the last male heir. The Leestrange family did not recognize female family inheritance rights. After the French Revolution, many wizards and nobles were involved. I heard that these properties were the last The destination is the underground pawnshop, that Kama, he has been looking for the young Cous Lestrange, right? Paris in 1927 no longer needed to enter the city through the smuggler’s secret tunnel."

Severus took a sip of coffee and moisturized his lips. "Books are not so valuable and can easily be disposed of as rubbish, especially the family tree that has been cut off. Maybe there are dragons guarding like Gringotts. It’s just that Gringotts is guarded by fire dragons, and they use water dragons. It’s not a short time to find a useful one among thousands of books. Kama is looking for Leicester in the book mountain of the pawnshop Ranch was infected with parasites during his family tree."

   "That's just your guess."

"We can go to the field to see, and by the way, we can go shopping there, maybe we can find a baby suitable for gifts for mermaids." Severus Yun said calmly, showing them their next destination. Decided.

  The underground passage is not as long as Gringotts. Soon the car stopped, but Pomona heard the sound of running water.

  There are many "libraries" in the tunnel. These books are not well protected. They are piled up randomly in a humid environment, like a hill, and occasionally bitten by mice.

  The old fairy candlestick said that they were not afraid of someone robbing and stealing for a reason, who would steal trash.

  What's more, these warehouses are not without any anti-theft measures. Sometimes mice will touch the buried "mines", and the potions inside will form a purple flame after exploding, which looks like some kind of black magic.

  Humans praise knowledge and feel that knowledge can change fate, but in the Paris Commune newspaper she borrowed, such information was published. The pawns returned by the commune for free were all worth no more than 20 francs, which was 1 million pieces. An exquisitely crafted evening dress, no matter how much it was worth when it was new, the **** was only worth 20 francs at the time.

  Bedding is difficult to **** at this price, and books are not very valuable. Even if there are secrets hidden in this book, it can be sold by weight just like firewood that can be burned for heating.

  20 francs is the limit of luxury goods, but it is not all accurate. The standard for defining luxury goods and labor tools cannot be fixed at a price. For example, a sewing machine of 50 francs is a production tool, and a ring of 50 francs is a luxury.

  The so-called "noble" and "inferior" come from people's feelings, just like "good" and "bad", "good" and "evil", "beneficial insects" and "harmful insects".

  Insects eat grass by nature. If it eats crops grown by humans, then it is attributed to humans as pests.

  The candlestick pulled the brake lever, got off the car, and then took the bunch of keys and opened the door of a cave.

  According to Pomona’s experience in working in Gringotts, the treasure house opened with a key is often nothing precious, but when the door opened, the light rushing towards her almost blinded her eyes.

  Diamonds are women’s favorites, and diamonds are fascinating not only because they are crystal clear, but also because they exude dazzling fire.

  Under the lack of light, the light emitted by the gem becomes more radiant.

  Pomona walked into this treasure house. French jewellery is world-renowned. The antique jewellery placed on the display racks are all romantic in style, exquisite and gorgeous, and amazingly beautiful.

  She very uncreatively wanted to give the mermaid leader a crown, but this is probably going to arouse the mermaid’s resentment.

  The giant chooses the leader to rely on a duel. Among the prestigious people, the horseman uses the method of burning spices to fortune and confirms the last leader. The method of the mermaid is a bit special.

  They will set up trials, and all the merfolk who want to be the leader can participate, and the person who completes the trial first will become the patriarch.

  Many merfolk will go forever, some will die in the trial, some will live and work in other tribes.

The vision of a mermaid who wandered around outside is not comparable to a mermaid who has never left his hometown. Humans fight for the crown. There are countless examples of father and son fratricide and brothers turning against each other. Give the crown to the mermaid and Pomona to give gifts. If the purpose of flattering is not achieved, it will irritate the other party.

  The mermaid in the Black Lake is mostly female, but they are not human females. These ordinary gifts cannot make them happy.

   "You didn't see it?" Severus asked.

   "Anything else?" Pomona looked at the old goblin.

  "The regular customers here must be ranked." The old fairy said slickly, "The ‘regular customers’ who introduced you can only go to this place."

   "Then what do you think about this?" Severus conjured a crystal bottle out of his pocket.

"what is this?"

   "Phoenix's tears."

  The old goblin showed interest and took the crystal bottle in Severus's hand.

  The pawnshop is like its inventory. There are not only shops in danger, but also pawners who deceive the shopkeepers. This requires a good-sighted shopkeeper to avoid losses to the pawnshop.

  Tom Riddle had done this when he was young. Fairies are experts in this area, and their life span is much longer than that of human beings. An old fairy has rich experience, and ordinary people can't get it.

   "Follow me." As soon as the old goblin put the Phoenix tears into his jacket pocket, the crystal bottle was snatched by Severus.

   "I'll talk about it after I've seen the goods." Severus said forcefully.

  The old fairy muttered a few words in French, and left the treasure room with them.

While it turned around, Severus put Phoenix's tears in his jacket pocket, and Pomona glanced at him as he put things. There was also an identical crystal bottle in it, which he brought out of the maze. Artificial "Phoenix Tears".

  Slytherin likes sneaking and skiing, and when meeting people who are smarter than them, they will often steal the chicken, but if they succeed, the benefits will be considerable, so they can't help but bet that others are fools.

  Pomona also didn't think about whether to remind him not to do that. At this time, the old fairy was already sitting in the car and waiting for the two of them.

   "Go to it." Pomona muttered, and left the treasure house, got in the car, and drove deeper into the tunnel.

  It didn’t take long for them to come to the underground canal, but there was no track for them to pass through.

  The weighing rod pulled down a lever, and a transparent cover was raised on the outside of the minecart, and the minecart moved in the dark river like a submarine.

  Speaking of Paris, most people will think of the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Elysées, the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe, fashion, and food, but during the Cretaceous period, Paris and Dover were once under the sea.

  In these two places, there is calcium carbonate of marine non-vertebrate organisms in the soil, but the Dover Coast was formed on the English side, and the Parisians used these limestones to build the urban buildings and sculptures of Paris.

  Now they are diving into a rock layer deeper than the quarry, where there is still a limestone structure. There are many aquatic plants and animals in the groundwater, separated by a transparent protective cover, as if they were in an aquarium.

  There are whales in the sea, but they are not suitable for living in fresh water. In this groundwater, there was a long, golden animal swimming, but the visibility in the water was not high, and it disappeared soon.

The "Where Are Fantastic Beasts" published by Silent Publishing House has only a part of magical animals. Animals from the East like Wuwu do not include them.

  Scamander’s family has an introduction to the oriental, unpublished magical animals. The animal Pomona just saw appeared in the album.

  Although it was poorly imprisoned, Pomona didn't want to let it go. This animal is called a minnow, which is a kind of eel. It has a pair of fin-like wings. Although it looks like an oriental dragon, it represents bad luck. Not only can it not rain clouds and rain, but it will also cause drought.

  People who have been drought for a long time pray for heavy rain, and thunderbirds that can bring heavy rain represent a good omen at this time.

   But if it rains for too long, humans expect the weather to clear up, and the minnow becomes the beneficial beast that everyone expects to come.

  At this time, the minecart "landed", and a thin protective cover blocked the water. The inside of the treasure house was very dry, only the entrance was soaked by river water.

  "Please come with me." The old fairy said to the two, walking in the middle of the corridor, with doors without keyholes on both sides.

   "It's unbelievable." Pomona whispered, and followed the old fairy to a small door at the end of the tunnel and stopped.

   "Stand back." The old goblin said cherishedly, reaching out a long finger and knocking on the door, and the door disappeared little by little.

   is exactly the same as the Gringott vault used to store the Philosopher’s Stone.
