Chapter 85
Even Rufus Scrimgeour, who thought there would be a period of anxiety, was confused.
"It took just one night for Shafiq to give up?"
He scoffed at all the rumors.
No one knows the business that old vulture Sean Shafiq runs in Knockturn Alley better than him, and that amount of money is something that the old vulture will never give up.
Then there is only one truth, Shafiq was exiled.
Lord Johnny Silverhand suddenly appeared and banished Shafiq, one of the twenty-eight holy clans, in just one night.
Rufus Scrimgeour feels like rethinking his relationship with Johnny Silverhand.
The new King of Knockturn Alley, Lord Johnny Silverhand has become a legend.
Chapter 98 Lucius and the Silver Message
Malfoy Manor.
Lucius Malfoy hasn't been having a good time lately.
He threatened the other Hogwarts governors, forcing them to sign notices suspending Dumbledore.
Because of this incident, he was expelled from the school board after Dumbledore's return.
This was bad for the Malfoy family, and what was even worse was the Malfoys' dark magic items.
Almost every ancient pure-blood family has two things, one is a house elf, and the other is a dark magic item.
The Malfoy family is like this. It can even be said that the Malfoy family, which once followed Voldemort, is full of dark magic props.
Voldemort did not trust the Malfoy family, but he also treated Lucius particularly favorably because of the ancient family and those dark magic props.
Right now that damn Arthur Weasley was staring at Malfoy Manor, and Lucius didn't know that his son had revealed the cellar where dark magic was hidden.
He was really afraid that one day Arthur Weasley would kick down the door of Malfoy Manor and take the entire Malfoy family to Azkaban.
Lucius wanted to sell it, but the Boginbock antique store with which he had a close connection had long since disappeared.
He thought about Sean Shafiq, the old vulture who must be interested in these things.
But that man was notoriously greedy, and he would lower the price to the point where there was no profit at all, so Lucius thought about it for a long time.
But he didn't expect that after he hesitated for a moment, when he went to Shafiq's house again, the place was already empty.
"Damn Weasley, damn Harry Potter!"
Lucius banged his fist on the stair railing, annoyed and angry.
"Stop your temper, Lucius."
When Mrs. Malfoy saw him, Narcissa raised her chin slightly, looking very proud.
"Narcissa, Arthur Weasley will be here at any moment."
Lucius just wanted to vent his temper, but he had to hold it back because of the arrival of his wife.
He had no choice but to grab the railing with his helpless and furious hands.
"You can hide the dark magic item or sell it, Lucius, don't show cowardice in front of Draco."
Mrs. Malfoy approached Lucius, and her eyes fell across the window on her son who was practicing magic there.
She could feel that her son had changed a lot at Hogwarts.
Although he was well-behaved in the past, he became a crybaby who loved to call daddy because of his parents. Now Draco is completely different.
Even a daughter born in the eternally pure Black family will become sentimental after becoming a mother.
Draco's change made Narcissa very happy, and she also comforted her husband.
Lucius was a little irritated and said in a slightly louder voice, "Of course I know, but that Arthur Weasley seems to know about my warehouse. He vowed that day that he would let me spend the rest of my life in Azkaban."
"I want to sell the black magic items now. Bojinbok was captured and taken to Azkaban. That old vulture Sean Shafik moved his family again. I don't know who to look for."
The Malfoy family is not short of money, what he needs is a place where he can temporarily store his belongings.
The former Bojin Bock was one, and items sold in the past could be bought back at the original price. This was a tacit understanding between the two companies.
Now that Johnny Silverhands had banned Borgin's Bock, he heard that the people there seemed to be working closely with the Ministry of Magic.
Lucius didn't dare to bet. If the other party backhandedly reported it to the Ministry of Magic, he would squat in Azkaban and kiss the dementors every day.
That scene makes me shudder just thinking about it.
Narcissa saw his concerns and said, "You have to try. I don't want our son to have a father squatting in Azkaban."
Lucius' expression changed several times.
At this time, a long-eared black owl came to Malfoy Manor.
A letter fell on the window sill. Lucius glanced at it but did not go to pick it up.
He subconsciously thought that Dobby the house elf would pick it up and bring it to him carefully.
However, he forgot that he was being plotted by Harry. After reacting, he stomped on the floor with a black face in retaliation.
This is a special letter.
There was no name on the letter, just black sealing wax with silver handprints on it.
Lucius thought of the current king of Knockturn Alley, Johnny Silverhand.
The logo on this one was the same as that of Johnny Silverhand's store, and he felt a little nervous for no reason.
As soon as I thought about the Johnny Silverhand store, they sent me a letter.
Although I knew it was a coincidence, I was still a little uneasy.
When he opened the letter, his expression changed several times.
Narcissa took everything in her eyes, walked over, picked up the letter and read it.
Like Lucius, Narcissa became confused and asked, "Do you know Johnny Silverhand?"
Lucius shook his head and said with a strange expression, "We have never met."
The couple looked at each other and wrote in the letter that they were willing to provide a hiding place for the Malfoys' dark magic tools.
Not only that, but Lord Johnny Silverhand is also happy to help Lucius regain his position as director of Hogwarts.
Each of these things carries risks. Why would Johnny Silverhand be willing to help?
The couple couldn't figure it out. Lucius hesitated and said, "Could it be that he is..."
His lips moved, and Lucius subconsciously looked to his left hand.
Narcissa looked stern. Regarding the Death Eaters, no matter who they were, they would be sent to Azkaban once they were discovered.
Apart from the Death Eaters, Lucius really couldn't figure out why Johnny Silverhand wanted to help him.
Staring at the letter, the couple fell into deep thought.
Draco Malfoy didn't know yet that his parents were faced with a choice, and he couldn't agree more with John's words at this moment.
"Only one's own strength is the most glorious."
He was facing a human-shaped target, as if he thought it was Harry Potter, and the spell was continuously released on the target.
After experiencing the cold shoulder from the team and his father's dismissal, he completely transformed.
Even after Goyle and Crabbe arrived, they only became sparring partners.
…
The depleted little wizard's fund was replenished, and Mundungus felt as uncomfortable as being cut with a knife.
Seeing the power of Johnny Silverhand, the wizards who had previously been hindered by the Shafiq family's reputation could finally let go and patronize.
In a short period of time, the turnover of Johnny Silverhand's store doubled several times.
Kim Ledisley's bright smile never stopped, and the sound of galleons colliding kept coming.
John prepared an office for himself, and he was sitting in it, holding letters from various parties in his hand.
"Thank you for your hard work, Riddle."
Reaching out to touch the long-eared black owl, John fed it a small piece of dried fish.
There were many letters, most of them from the dark wizards of Knockturn Alley, asking about the new rules.
The Shafiq family used to control these things, but now there is a new king, and they are very sensible.
Of course, there will be some who are ignorant.
At this time, John will give them an offer they cannot refuse, such as being sent to Azkaban or being bitten by a werewolf.
These people will soon become honest.
Before taking action, John would send those people a letter of condolence.
This letter is also called a silver hand letter. The content of the letter is very simple, telling them that they regret not being friends, and then there will be a big silver handprint on it.
Anyone who receives such a letter will either come over the next day to show their kindness, or disappear in Knockturn Alley.
Under such shock, everyone knew that Johnny Silverhand was more decisive than Sean Shafik before him.
A letter from Malfoy Manor caught John's attention and he opened the envelope.
The content inside made him raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a smile: "Lucius Malfoy is a sensible person, but the Death Eater aspect needs to be dealt with carefully."
I know Lucius is a Death Eater, but Lucius is a very impure Death Eater.
During the period when Voldemort was powerful, he showed off his power, but after Voldemort's fall, he was the most active among the first people to distance themselves from the relationship.
This is very consistent with Slytherin, who follows the strong, is good at calculations, and protects himself wisely.
After Voldemort's resurrection, Lucius will return to Voldemort, but he is definitely not a die-hard loyalist.
The real diehards of Voldemort are all staying in Azkaban, and those outside are at best just minions waving flags and shouting from behind.
"Make good use of this status."
John touched his chin. Johnny Silverhand's identity was now an influential figure.
As a place to focus on business, John will naturally not only be in Knockturn Alley.
Diagon Alley is the big head, where wizards all over the country go.
Putting his mask back on, John walked downstairs.
All wizards who saw the mask would salute with fear and respect.
This scene also fell in the eyes of the monitoring Aurors. They knew that a guy more troublesome than Sean Shafik was born.
Chapter 99 Apparition and the Daily Prophet
“The most important thing to remember is the three ‘Ds’, namely Destination, Determination and Deliberation.
As you proceed, focus on your goal, be determined to occupy the space you want, and move calmly. "
Donmie Shelby is a master of the Disapparation Curse. John estimates that his level should be level 5.
In this desolate jungle, John is learning the Apparition spell.
To be precise, this spell is divided into two parts.
Apparition and Apparition.
The difference between the two is that one disappears at the starting point and the other appears at the end point.
You must master these two steps well, otherwise you will get split.
Just like now, John looked at his missing ring finger and was speechless.
"You did such a good job that some people even lost their heads while apparating."
Tang Mi took Bai Xian to treat John, and the boss's secret mission turned out to be to make up for the class.
Tang Mi felt that if he had not become an Auror, he might have been able to teach at Hogwarts.
