Admiral of Hogwarts
107 Thief
After walking roughly around this street, Hugo and Hermione focused on something with written text. After all, it was just because Hugo was lucky enough to find something good that he just missed it, but in such a mixed place, there are actually more fakes.
This is why they look for all kinds of written materials, because even if the carriers of those things are fake, the knowledge contained in the words and patterns engraved on them will not be fake. These things are actually more reliable than magic items that are purely used to fool people.
So they found a thrift store and started looking for treasures in the pile of old books. An hour later, Hugo and Hermione almost emptied their pockets and bought nearly 20 books from this old book store. The schoolbags they brought out were completely filled with books.
Of course, in a place like this, don't think about buying any special spells or treasured ancient books. The books they bought were all mass-printed books.
Some of the books introduce magic such as housework magic or cooking magic that are relatively practical but rarely learned in schools. The other part is the daily magic casting skills unique to the United States and the making skills of some common potions.
"To be honest, the books I bought today are actually quite practical." Hermione said excitedly when she walked out of the thrift store. "At least Hogwarts doesn't teach people how to wave a magic wand to turn those raw materials into various delicacies."
"You're right." Hugo nodded and said. Last year, he found out through asking his classmates that housework magic seems to be something that is passed down from generation to generation by the women in charge of the family. It is not something that is taught in school. Teach this thing. So it is really a surprise to find teaching materials here.
Because I have almost spent all my money, and the time agreed with my parents is coming soon. So after leaving the thrift store, Hugo and Hermione walked towards the entrance of the market with the trophies they had just collected.
But just when they were not far from the door, a man who was originally standing behind them suddenly lowered his head and accelerated and passed between Hugo and Hermione.
"Thief" Before Hugo could react, the voice of victory suddenly sounded in his mind. "The man who came over just now is a thief. Look at your pants pockets."
"What?" After hearing Victory's reminder, Hugo suddenly touched his trouser pocket. As a result, someone cut a large gash in the trouser pocket at some point, and the wallet that was originally inside was missing.
After discovering this situation, he immediately turned his head nervously and looked at the man walking quickly towards the exit of the market.
You know, although he has spent almost all the wizarding currency he has before, that wallet can contain all the pocket money of more than eighty pounds that he now has. Even if he really wanted money, he could just ask the girls for it, but he was too embarrassed to reach out to the girls for such personal matters.
"Catch the thief" Hugo shouted immediately, and at the same time he quickly chased after the thief who heard the shout and ran towards the door of the market. After seeing her brother's actions, Hermione was stunned for a moment, then took off the schoolbag on her back, held it in her hands, and chased after him.
"Haha, the two little guys still want to catch up with me." When he heard the unique sharp voice of children coming from behind, the thief in front sneered. He didn't think that two kids who looked only eleven or twelve years old could catch him. , as long as he gets out of this door, no one can stop him from escaping through Apparition.
With this thought in mind, the thief took three steps at a time and passed through the gate while bypassing the person in front who tried to stop him. Then he spun around and prepared to apparate away, but just as he turned half a circle and turned his face toward the door, he saw a black thing hit his face with a sound of wind.
"Ah" a scream quickly came from the thief's mouth. Because he felt extremely severe pain coming from his face. Apparently, he was interrupted when the cloth bag containing silverware that Hugo threw out with all his strength hit his face at a very high speed. nose bone.
What was even worse for him was that he was using Apparition magic at this time, so the severe pain coming from his face immediately confused his thinking, and naturally there was something wrong with the magic.
The Hugo siblings and several enthusiasts who chased them out saw that with a slight explosion, the thief's lower body disappeared, and his upper body fell to the ground with a bang because it lost support. . Perhaps due to the effect of magic, not a drop of blood was exposed at the fracture for the time being.
"Ah" the thief first lowered his head and looked at his body in disbelief, and then a much stronger cry came out of his mouth. Because he knew that although the power of magic temporarily made his wounds okay, he would be dead once the magic disappeared in five or six minutes.
"Uh" Hugo quickly covered the eyes of his sister next to him when he saw this, because the cross section of the thief's body happened to be facing them when the upper half of his body fell. From the cross section, he could see that the internal organs were still normal for some reason. It was squirming and looked very scary.
As a doctor in his previous life, Hugo had seen many such scenes, so he felt that he was fine now. But when several adult wizards around him saw this, they screamed or simply bent over and retched.
This is why he covered Hermione's eyes with his hands just now, because he felt that his sister was not suitable to see such a terrifying sight. There was a good tacit understanding between the two people, so Hermione believed that Hugo had to cover his eyes for a reason, so she didn't struggle much.
"Come on, come on, what's happening here?" At this time, a familiar voice came from the back of the crowd, and then the company separated from the crowd and walked to the front of everyone. "Ah, it turns out someone is separated."
After seeing this scene, Enterprise walked directly to the thief and patted his face to make him aware of his existence. Then he took out his wand and said to him, "Hurry up and get rid of the thief you were about to apparate away." Tell me where you are, otherwise I won’t be able to save you.”
After hearing what the company said, the thief hesitated for a moment. Because the target of his Apparition is his lair, he will be in trouble once others find out. But he soon realized that if someone found his hideout, he would be jailed for a few years at most, but now he would be dead if he didn't reveal the location.
So he quickly told the place where he wanted to apparate as quickly as possible. After listening to his words, Enterprise waved his wand at the thief lying on the ground.
There was a loud bang and after a burst of purple smoke dissipated, everyone saw the thief lying limp on the ground with a look of fear on his face. But the lower half of the body has already been installed.
"Okay." At this time, the company grabbed the thief by the collar and lifted him up, and then asked: "Tell me, how many things have you stolen before?"
