Professor, please pay the debt
Chapter 26 Unexpected Surprise 1
Harry came out of the fireplace and unexpectedly found himself locked in a cage. At first he thought it was a trap, but soon a goblin whose height only reached Harry's thigh appeared in front of him and verified his identity After that, open the cage and lead him down a narrow path to the Great Hall of Gringotts.
Only then did Harry understand what Jerry meant when he said that the goblins were not friendly.It seems that even the Ministry of Magic can't win the goblins' trust.
"This way please, Mr. Potter..."
The goblin who led the way led Harry through the tall marble hall, where there was a long row of counters, behind which sat the goblins who handled business.
However, not many people came to do business today, so most of the goblins were idle. They made no secret of their curiosity about Harry, so when Harry walked by, all the goblins followed him with their eyes...
Even though he was used to being noticed, Harry couldn't take it anymore. He softly asked the goblin who was leading the way, "Which counter shall we go to?"
"The first counter, we have received a message from the Ministry of Magic that you have just inherited the treasury of the Black family. This business can only be handled at the honorable No. [-] counter."
Well, very good, nothing could be better!The so-called honorable counter No. [-] happened to be at the end of this long line of counters, and the goblins could appreciate the savior to their heart's content - Harry thought through gritted teeth.
When they finally reached the designated counter, not only the goblins, but even the customers working in the hall recognized the famous scar on Harry's head. He does business with leprechauns.
"I'd like to see the vault I just inherited. Also, I'd like to know if the Potters have any property in Gringotts."
Although he knew that the hope was slim, Harry still wanted to give it a try. After all, the Potter family is a noble family that has lasted for thousands of years. useful stuff.
"We have been notified. Yes, you have inherited two treasuries. Your request includes three businesses. The first is to inherit Sirius Black's treasury and view it, and the second is to inherit the Black family's treasury and Check, the third item is to check the remaining property of the Potter family and inherit it, let us do it one by one."
This goblin is obviously older, his voice is hoarse, he speaks slowly, the tips of his ears are drooping weakly, making his pointed ears look round, and there are many wrinkles on his forehead, among which three horizontal lines are the most obvious. He had round golden eyes, which made his face not like a goblin, but like some kind of jungle animal.
"First item, you have inherited Sirius Black's vault..." The goblin looked at Harry as if waiting for confirmation, so Harry nodded to him, and the goblin continued: "The key to this vault has been kept by the customer himself. Yes, then, do you have the key?"
Of course Harry didn't.This key may be somewhere in Black's old house, and if Sirius likes to carry it with him, he may have flown into the mysterious archway with Sirius.
"Can't I get into this vault without a key?" Harry asked.
"Please answer my question directly..." The goblin gave Harry a malicious look, "This will save time."
Goblins are an uneducated bunch!Harry restrained his anger, and replied word by word: "I don't have a key."
"Then, you have two options, either go find it, or let us re-issue a key for you."
"Can it be done again?"
"Yes, please don't question my words. We goblins never lie. But there is a fee for re-keying, 20 Galleons, which can be deducted directly from your treasury. So... what is your choice?"
Harry hated goblins, or he never learned to deal with goblins, and the Dark Lord never saved money at Gringotts.
"Please go through the process again, and the fee can be deducted according to the method you said."
——Since the goblins can recreate the keys, it means that they can enter all the vaults without notifying the owner.
It appears that Gringotts is built on pure credit.However, the credibility here is still quite high. Even when the goblins rebelled, Gringotts continued to operate as usual, as if those goblins who attacked wizards had nothing to do with the goblins in Gringotts.
The old goblin with three horizontal stripes on his forehead - that's what Harry called him in his heart. He took out a beautiful silver plate from under the counter. The center was very shiny, and the edge was carved with complex ancient runes.
The old goblin rubbed a black stone on it, making a screeching sound, and everyone in the hall looked towards this side. The goblin didn't realize it, and put the plate on the tip of his nose again, breathed out with his mouth open, and then used The black stone rubbed against it, the sizzling sound made everyone uncomfortable, even the other goblins covered their ears, only this old goblin continued to exhale and rub against the stone as if he hadn't heard it, and repeated several times like this.
When all of Harry's patience had run out, he finally put the plate on the counter and pushed it in front of Harry with one of his knuckles.
"Please put a drop of blood on it, we need to confirm your identity."
Harry knew what it was, or the Dark Lord knew—the Mirror of Blood—
This plate-like thing is the treasure of Gringotts. Since the day Gringotts opened, goblins have used it to identify customers and determine the lineage of heirs. Just a drop of blood can show your true Names, goblins do not accept anonymous deposits at all.
That's why the Dark Lord didn't open a vault at Gringotts, he'd rather keep his treasures in his subordinates' vaults than use that name again.
But now he doesn't need to avoid the magic mirror of blood, his body is the heir of the authentic Potter family, the starting point of the savior is much higher than that of the Dark Lord, and he will definitely achieve greater achievements.
Thinking of this, Harry was in a good mood, and his tone seemed relaxed. He even seemed to be joking with the goblin, "I have a little trouble... I can't use magic right now, and I don't carry a knife or anything like that."
The goblin glared at him again, this time with a more vicious expression, and he said, "Give me your hand, please."
Harry's hunch told him it would be better to decline the offer and run out and buy a pocketknife himself, but he didn't want to be ashamed, so he did it anyway.
The goblin grabbed his hand and pinched it with its long black nails... The place where it was pinched was immediately torn, and bright red blood oozed out...
The wound didn't feel very painful, but Harry worried that he might be poisoned.However, the next scene attracted him and made him forget this worry.
The drop of blood accurately landed on the magic mirror of blood, the red blood drop was full of vitality, it jumped quickly, split into countless small blood drops, and then recombined into a name—Harry James Potter——
This is not over yet, other names appeared in the magic mirror, just above Harry’s name, appeared—James Potter—the name of Harry’s father, and then, two names appeared above James’s name—Eye Burmanuel Porter - and.
--Bridget Blackport--
Harry guessed it was his grandparents, he jotted them down, and then he saw a series of reactions, four names appeared above the two names, the two names on Abel's head were named Potter, The two names on Bridget's head were Black, and Harry wanted to take them down as well.
But the speed at which the names came out increased, and new names appeared on top of their names, two on each head, and by this time the names had grown to the edge of the plate, and Harry thought there would be no more new names appearing. .
However, this plate is magical, all the names shrink in an instant, and the words representing himself - Harry James Potter - run to the edge of the plate.
And behind it is a large densely packed name that grows rapidly, like a fan, and Harry's name is the handle of the fan.
Merlin!Here's the family tree of the Potter family!
Harry looked at the name on the top. He wanted to know who the ancestor of the Potter family was, but the font on the silver plate was so small that Harry couldn't figure out what it was even if he rubbed his eyes hard. He had to Do not resort to goblins.
"Can you tell me who this Potter is at the top?"
"That's Mr. Omar Maxwell Porter Oswald..."
"So, who are his parents?" Harry wanted to know more. "This plate may not be able to write on it. Do you have any other records?"
"No, sir, first of all, this is not a plate, and secondly, there is no problem of not being able to write on it..." The goblin's expression was very arrogant, "This is a magic alchemy item made by our goblins, not a half-baked product made by your wizards."
"But he must have parents..." Harry wanted to ask clearly, "Besides, why is there only my father's ancestors on it, but not my mother's?"
Not even Lily Evans' name, only James Potter's name above Harry's, and two names above everyone else's.
Only then did Harry understand what Jerry meant when he said that the goblins were not friendly.It seems that even the Ministry of Magic can't win the goblins' trust.
