Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

Chapter 243 Fairy Binok

It may be that the decryption progress is not enough. Currently, the functions that can be used in the "SL Rally System" are still very limited. Only "Convene Rally", "Rally Notification", "Participate in Rally", "Rally Private Chat" and "Rally Item Transaction" can be used. .

Dean didn't know how other assembly members used these functions. Anyway, it was very convenient for him to just click on the system and use it.

Dean did not study other functions carefully for the time being, but began to tinker with "gathering item trading".

If he guessed correctly, the transaction related to the Mandrake resurrection potion and materials with Bishop Heigbai at the previous meeting needed to be completed through this system.

Sure enough, after careful study, Dean found that there was an unread message in the system.

"Dear Bishop Baigehei, you have a package to be collected. Please go to the Borkin Bock store at No. 13B Knockturn Alley to collect it."

There is a code composed of a string of magic symbols at the back. Dean speculates that this should be the so-called "pickup code"?

There is no doubt that this package should contain the materials provided by Bishop Heigbai. The question is, won't this kind of transaction be traced to the true identity?

Dean shook his head. No matter what, let's go and see the situation first. Of course, necessary disguise is still needed. He is not used to trusting his secrets to other people's security measures.

After a while, the mysterious traveler from the Middle Ages "reappeared" in the world.

Knockturn Alley in this era was even more chaotic than it would be in the future. As Dean strolled through it, he found that there were many mysterious wizards here who were secretly trading something. In comparison, the costumes of the mysterious walkers looked like passers-by. Both will not arouse anyone's suspicion at all.

Dean arrived at No. 13B with ease and found that the storefront of the Borkin & Burke store in this era was much more spacious than that in later generations.

It seems that poor management by the unscrupulous descendants of later generations will lead to the shrinkage of the store.

Dean groaned inwardly.

The door of the store was closed, and it didn't look like it was open for business at all, but there was no sign saying it was temporarily closed.

Dean thought for a moment, raised his cane and knocked lightly on the door of the store. Immediately, a warm voice came from the door: "Thanks Merlin, we finally have customers. If the sales continue to decline, I will definitely be fired." !”

Dean frowned slightly. He could tell that the people inside were actually speaking in Elf Tongue. He never thought that the useless "Elf Tongue Proficiency" extracted from Quirrell would come in handy at this time.

The store door opened from inside, and a goblin dressed in ordinary clothes appeared in front of Dean.

"Distinguished guests, welcome to the Borkin Burke Magic Shop. The shop specializes in all kinds of antiques from the wizarding world. It also provides customers with secret valuation services for rare and ancient magical artifacts inherited from outstanding wizard families... "The goblin introduced eloquently. It can be seen that his mastery of the wizard's language is no less than that of the goblin.

"What kind of service do you need?" The goblin asked diligently after introducing it in one breath.

"Well, I just took a look." Dean said casually.

"Just for a casual look?" The goblin's face showed obvious disappointment. "If you have any special preferences, I can introduce them to you in detail."

"Just strolling around." Dean insisted and refused to reveal the real purpose. He did not trust this chatty goblin.

"Okay, let's just take a stroll, please~" After the goblin let Dean into the store, he began to complain in a low voice in the goblin language: "Look, another 'just take a look', these wizards won't really pay for anything." They just want to satisfy their curiosity. Oh, poor Binok, there is no hope for today’s turnover. I hope the boss won’t fire me! It’s not easy to find a job now..."

Dean felt that this goblin, who should be named Binnock, was really noisy, which directly affected his mood when shopping in the store - even though the Binock store was as dark and messy as before.

Dean couldn't help but asked in the elf language: "Mr. Binnock, why don't you go to work at Gringotts?"

"I'm sorry, sir, but you actually understand the Elf language?" Binok exclaimed.

"... Is it strange?" Dean was a little confused. In his time, there were not many wizards who knew Fairy Language, but there were definitely many.

"You are the only wizard I have seen in the wizarding world who understands Elvish." Binok said.

"What you said is too exaggerated. There are definitely many wizards in this world who understand Fairy Language, but you have never met them." Dean said with certainty. He didn't want to be the "only one".

"Perhaps you are right. But if there were more wizards who knew the Elf language, the wizards would not have so much discrimination and prejudice against us." Binok said naggingly.

"Are you referring to the goblin rebellion?" Dean thought of the famous goblin rebellion in 1612, which was not that far away from this era.

"If there had been a highly respected wizard who was proficient in the Elf language and was willing to mediate, I bet that the Elf Rebellion would never have happened, and it would not have led to my current predicament." Binok complained.

"I can see that your life is quite embarrassing now." Dean looked at Binnock up and down. If it weren't for the more formal clothes, he would definitely be mistaken for a house elf.

"There's no way, after the goblin rebellion, it's hard to find a job." Binok sighed, "If I hadn't had a relationship with the boss here, I might not even be able to keep this job."

"Mr. Burke?" Dean asked.

"No, it's Mr. Borkin. He is the other boss here." Binok shrugged. "Compared to Mr. Bork, who is of noble birth, Mr. Borkin is quite kind to us goblins."

"So you were just worried that you would be fired by Mr. Bock because your turnover was not up to standard?" Dean understood a little bit.

"Mr. Bojin didn't mind spending a little money to hire me to look after the store, but Mr. Bok felt that since I came to work here, the business has been affected, so he wanted to drive me away through a sales assessment, so that Mr. Bojin wouldn't What objections could there be?" Binnock saw things quite clearly.

"Still the same question, why don't you go to work at Gringotts?" Dean felt that Binok was simply seeking the far away.

Binok sighed deeply: "After the last goblin rebellion, the goblins were divided. Some goblins believed that cooperation with wizards should be strengthened, while the other part of the goblins insisted on continuing to resist the rule of wizards."

"I guess the goblins of Gringotts fall into the former category?"

"correct answer!"

"Then you belong to the latter? That's why you are not accepted by Gringotts?" Dean guessed, "With all due respect, isn't your working here also a kind of cooperation with wizards?"

"Your description is not accurate. I am actually a neutral. I don't want to be too involved with wizards like the goblins of Gringotts, and I don't agree with those goblins who always want to riot. Can't you live a good life?" Binok complained.

"With all due respect, a goblin like you will definitely not be accepted by anyone, so you can't blame others for ending up in this situation." Dean sighed.
