Hogwarts Collector, I cast a spell with the Eye of God - Chapter 140
With the gold galleons in hand, Ye Ting also began to plan his own house-buying business.
He specifically asked Principal Dumbledore to help him with this matter.
And he began to consider another thing, that is, to find a snake as a contract object for himself, so as to unlock the ability of white magic.
Speaking of the contract object, Ye Ting’s first choice is of course Nagini.
As a blood-cursed orc, Nagini naturally has a higher panel than ordinary snakes, and her intelligence is high enough, which is very suitable to be a contract object.
More importantly, she is an important character in the original book, and contracting her can get a good collection reward.
The only problem is that she is far away in the forest of Romania.
It takes time to find her.
The threat of Voldemort is not within his consideration.
Not to mention that Voldemort was severely injured by him a few months ago, Ye Ting seriously doubted that Voldemort would not be able to recover and return to Romania in just a few months.
Even if Voldemort is really in Romania, Ye Ting is not afraid of him.
Voldemort now is just a defeated general under his hands.
Even with Quirrell’s help, Voldemort couldn’t beat him, not to mention that Quirrell was dead now, and he simply couldn’t find a possessed person as talented and easy to fool as Quirrell in a short period of time.
In this case, it should be Voldemort who should run.
But how to get to Romania?
This is also a problem.
He also considered taking a Muggle plane to Romania.
But the forest in Romania where magical animals live is hidden by magic.
It is difficult to find a way in without going through the local wizard community.
Therefore, Ye Ting began to consider using wizards’ means of travel.
Dumbledore”197″ would not bother with such a small matter.
He decided to ask for help from his friend Tonks who worked at the Ministry of Magic.
Tonks’s reply was very fast, as if it had been prepared long ago.
A ticket was also sent along with it.
That’s right, it was a ticket!
King’s Cross Station, a ticket for platform 7 and 1/2, a platform he had never heard of.
According to Tonks, this mysterious platform 7 1/2 is hidden between platforms 7 and 8, and you can take a long-distance train to the wizard village on the European continent. When
Ye Ting heard this, he felt an unprecedented sense of novelty.
He had never heard of such a train.
The departure date on the ticket arrived as scheduled. Ye Ting said goodbye to Hermione’s family and embarked on a journey to King’s Cross Station alone.
Using the same method as entering platform 9 3/4, Ye Ting successfully entered platform 7 1/2.
As soon as he stepped onto the platform, his eyes were attracted by a simple and elegant train.
Its body was covered with a layer of light beige paint. After years of baptism, it still exudes an irresistible aristocratic atmosphere. The sun shines on the brass decorations on the body, and the carefully carved patterns shine in the morning light.
This train will depart from London, cross the English Channel, stop in France, and then cross the entire European continent through Paris, and finally arrive at the distant Constantinople-no, it should be called Istanbul now.
It really made me cry.
On the way, it will stop at European cities such as Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, Budapest and Bucharest, and pass through many pure wizard villages.
This train has a name that is far more famous than the Hogwarts Express – the Orient Express!
At this time, wizards gathered densely on the platform, as if they were all looking forward to the arrival of an important person.
Seeing this scene, Ye Ting couldn’t help but feel surprised.
“Could it be that the news that I won the Hogwarts Special Contribution Award has quietly spread throughout the UK?”
He was both surprised and suspicious.
“Who leaked the news?”
That’s not right.”
Ye Ting certainly wouldn’t think so.
If he waited until his Order of Merlin was granted, there might be such a scene. But for a mere”Special Contribution Award to the School”, who would recognize such a small character?
This thing is like a student union award in school. It is glorious in school, but when looking for a job, unless the other party is an alumnus, it will not work!
Ye Ting was ruthlessly squeezed to the outside by the crowd, and he didn’t even have a chance to squeeze into the Orient Express.
There were many reporters with cameras around, and the flashlights were clicking. The scene was even more lively than the celebrity pick-up in the previous life!
Ye Ting’s curiosity was completely aroused, but the express was overcrowded, and he could only stand at the back of the crowd.
Although he was considered tall among his peers, he was only 12 years old after all, and he was still too short in front of adults.
Even if he stood on tiptoe, he couldn’t see anything.
In desperation, Ye Ting had to turn to the tall wizard next to him and asked tentatively:”Hey, sir, what are you doing in here? Why are there so many people?”
The tall wizard glanced at Ye Ting. His cross-eyed look looked a little funny.
His white hair was puffy like cotton candy on his shoulders, and he wore a hat with tassels that almost reached the tip of his nose. He was wearing an egg-yellow robe, the color was so dazzling that it was impossible to ignore it.
What was even more eye-catching was that he had a big gold chain around his neck, just like a character from a MV showing off wealth.
“Hey, don’t you think this world is strange? A slightly famous wizard takes the Orient Express, and reporters swarm around him for interviews like bees seeing honey.”
The cross-eyed uncle looked puzzled, scratching his messy hair and muttering,”My fame is no less than his, but I am also on this train, so why is no one paying attention to me?”
Ye Ting rolled his eyes when he heard this. Given the unique appearance of the cross-eyed wizard, if he was really famous, he would be recognized even if he was dressed up.
Now no one cares about him, which is enough to show that his so-called fame is just bragging.
Forget it, since the other party can’t explain it, then just do it yourself and have enough food and clothing.
Ye Ting gently kicked his feet, and the lightning elemental power was activated instantly. The invisible electromagnetic field spread out under his feet like ripples, taking him up leisurely, like an immortal walking in the air, floating.
Now, his vision has broadened a lot, and his vision suddenly became clear. He looked towards the door of the express train and saw that the train was covered with photos.
The wizard in the photo was extraordinarily handsome, only a little worse than him. The wizard was wearing a purple robe, and his golden wavy curls shone in the sun. He grinned, revealing a dazzling white tooth, as if it could illuminate the haze in people’s hearts.
At the entrance of the Orient Express, a large banner was particularly eye-catching, with the words:
“Gilderoy Lockhart will be taking the Orient Express soon!”
It turned out to be this idiot.
Ye Ting suddenly realized
“My family, my fans! At the kind invitation of the conductor, I will take this Orient Express in the next few days to spend a wonderful time with you!”Lockhart stood at the door of the train, waving his arms as if he was conducting a grand symphony, his voice full of passion.
“During this trip, I will write the last part of my autobiography”The Magic Me”. I will be on the train during this time. Do you want to get close to me? Do you want to feel the charm of magic? Then come and buy your ticket!”
Lockhart waved to the crowd, and the conductor beside him also showed a satisfied smile.
In order to invite this big shot, he spent a lot of money, and this gimmick must be maximized!
However, who knew that Lockhart’s next words made the conductor almost vomit blood.
“In order to give back to my family for their support, you can take the train for free with the receipt for my complete set of books! Go buy your books, don’t miss the train departure time!”
Where did this discount come from? Why didn’t I know about it? It’s not written in the contract?
The conductor opened his mouth but didn’t say a word of denial.
The money for the publicity had already been spent. If he quarreled with Lockhart at this time, he would be the one who suffered the loss. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
There was no way, he could only bite the bullet and agree to Lockhart’s empty promise.
Lockhart didn’t care what the man next to him thought. Seeing that the other party endured it, a triumphant smile suddenly appeared on his face.
He was very good at using his fame to make small profits like this.
At the same time, a short man holding a large black camera was jumping back and forth in front of Lockhart to take pictures.
“The world is going downhill and it is unjust!”
The cross-eyed wizard shouted indignantly,”How come these days, any Tom, Dick or Harry can become a writer and become so famous, while a talented person like me is buried? It’s simply an example of bad money driving out good!”
Hearing this, Ye Ting was curious and said,”Uh, uncle, are you a writer too?”
“What? Uncle? Do I look old? You can call me sir, or uncle, but don’t use the word uncle!”
The cross-eyed wizard rolled his eyes, looking dissatisfied,”Uncle, I am in the prime of my life, only a few years older than you!”
Ye Ting looked at the wrinkled face of the other party, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
In his opinion, those over 20 years old are already uncles, and those over 30 years old are definitely middle-aged men!
Ye Ting suppressed the discomfort in his heart and asked again:”Uncle, are you really a writer?”
“Of course, I write often, and I’m quite famous!”The cross-eyed wizard said proudly, as if he had finally found an audience willing to listen to his boasting.
He boasted non-stop, as if he wanted to pour out all the frustrations of these years and talk about his life as a writer.
However, Ye Ting couldn’t listen any more, he sighed, put his palm against his chin, and said helplessly:[]
“Uncle, I heard from professors that a wizard in his thirties who has no girlfriend, is single, and has no job often fantasizes about being a writer.”
He looked at the cross-eyed wizard innocently:”Isn’t that you?”
“……”The cross-eyed wizard was speechless for a moment.
“Humph, your taste is really unique!”
The cross-eyed wizard raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth,”Look at your pretty face, I guess you will be like Lockhart in the future, relying on your pretty face to make a living!”
Ye Ting was not angry at all when he heard it:”That’s better than some people saying that grapes are sour when they can’t eat them.”
“”Who said I can’t have it?” The cross-eyed wizard was immediately furious and snorted,”I have already started a family and even have a daughter, who is so beautiful!”
Ye Ting curled his lips and secretly complained in his heart: You look like this, your daughter probably won’t be that pretty.
As Lockhart stepped into the train, the crowd gradually dispersed.
Ye Ting patted the dust off his body, waved his hand and said,”I’m getting on the train, goodbye uncle! If your daughter goes to school at Hogwarts, I will definitely take good care of her for you.”
“”Hey, you kid! Don’t run! Also, call me uncle!” The cross-eyed wizard hurriedly chased after him, but Ye Ting had already deftly slipped into the crowd.
Soon, Ye Ting came to the front of the team and entered the door first.
The person checking the tickets at the door was an old goblin in a black uniform. He was short and had a dark face. The black eyes behind his monocle flashed with a cunning light, as if he could see through everything, and he looked at every wizard vigilantly.
Taking the ticket handed over by Ye Ting, the old goblin looked at it carefully, then looked up and asked in a sharp voice:
“Do you have any dangerous goods, dark magic items, dangerous potions, pets or magical animals on you? Remember, any animal must be checked in, even toads and mice, if they are hidden in your pocket, you have to take them out!”
“Of course not.”Ye Ting shook his head, with a pure face:”I have always been a law-abiding person and never carry any dangerous items. Those dangerous goods, black magic props, dangerous potions, pets and magical animals have nothing to do with me.”
Long before entering the station, Linnet had crawled into the space in Ye Ting’s hat.
Although it was pitch black there, there was air circulation, enough for her to hide temporarily.
The old goblin raised a long detector and scanned Ye Ting’s chest and back carefully, but did not find anything abnormal.
Then, he placed the small bag that Ye Ting carried with him on a brass magic scanner and began to scan it carefully.
A narrow piece of parchment quickly slid out from a hole at the bottom of the scanner 1.7, which listed in detail all the items in the small bag.
The old goblin tore off the parchment and looked at it carefully.
Only Listed on it were only towels, clothes and other daily necessities, and no dangerous items were found.
The only problem was that the number of these things was too small, and it didn’t seem like something that someone planning to go on a long journey would carry.
This made the old goblin frown slightly.
He looked at Ye Ting suspiciously twice, trying to catch a hint of flaws on the boy’s face.
However, Ye Ting deliberately imitated Neville’s expression, and looked very honest, as if he was really a good boy.
Coupled with his excellent appearance… At this moment, the old goblin’s deliberate difficulties had aroused the anger of the passengers behind.
“Hey, what’s wrong with you, the ticket inspector? The kid clearly has a legitimate ticket, how can you make things difficult for him like this?”A middle-aged witch couldn’t help but speak up.
“That’s right, aren’t you deliberately looking for trouble? The child looks so well-behaved, how could he be carrying dangerous goods?” Another passenger also echoed
“This old witch is just deliberately making things difficult for others!”
“Bullying others doesn’t mean you have no parents, right? I’m going to file a complaint against you!”
Hearing the protests, the old goblin was helpless.
He had no choice but to pick up a stamp, stamp it heavily on the ticket, and said coldly:”Go in!”
Ye Ting smiled slightly, picked up the bag, and walked towards the train.
Platform 7 1/2 did not appear in the text, but Rowling mentioned Platform 7 1/2 and the”Orient Express” that would go to the magical world of continental Europe on Pottermore.”
