Mrs. Weasley also noticed that Harry was covered in ashes and cinders. She rummaged through her large bag and took out a coat brush to help Harry clean the areas that Hagrid had not touched.
"There are many dark wizards gathering in Knockturn Alley. You haven't encountered any danger, Harry?" Mr. Weasley helped Harry repair his glasses and asked.
"My parents never let us go there." Ron said enviously.
"Luckily you didn't go, Harry and I were almost caught trying voodoo potion." Glenn rolled his eyes and said.
Good guy, one drag bottle is not enough. If Ron goes too, he might not be able to take care of him.
"If Glenn hadn't been here, I might have been captured by them." Harry said with some fear.
"Oh, my God!" Little Ginny exclaimed, looking at Harry distressedly.
Mrs. Weasley asked with concern: "What happened? And Glenn, why did you go to Knockturn Alley too?"
"It's a long story. I also accidentally saw the Malfoy family and his son walking in from there." Glenn pointed to the entrance of Knockturn Alley and explained, "Malfoy's father has been looking back to see if anyone is following him. He was sneaking up there. I was curious and followed him."
"Lucius Malfoy?" Mr. Weasley asked, slightly stunned.
"Yes, that old guy who thinks he is noble carries a crutch all day long, but I have never seen him use it as a crutch."
Glenn nodded, making no attempt to conceal his dislike of the Malfoy family, which was clearly to Mr. Weasley's liking.
"I saw them walking into Borgin-Bock, and then I met the two dark wizards."
"Did he buy anything?" Mr. Weasley came over and asked, "There are many dark magic items in Borgin and Burkes."
"I didn't hear their conversation through the window," Glenn shook his head and said, "But Harry should have heard it, because he happened to come out of Borgin Burke's fireplace."
"Yes." Harry nodded, "If I heard correctly, not only did he not buy anything, he even sold a lot."
(Here it’s storage in the movie, but it’s for sale in the book.)
"It seems that the Ministry's random checks have frightened him," said Mr. Weasley. "If I can find evidence that he collected these things..."
"Let me tell you, Arthur, you don't need to mess with that family." Weasley couldn't help but interrupt him and said, "Lucius Malfoy is not a soft persimmon."
"You also think I can't beat Malfoy?" Mr. Weasley looked at his wife with some dissatisfaction.
"All right."
It seemed that it was not like seeing a couple quarreling, so Hagrid interrupted.
"Now that you two are safe and nothing happens, I'll leave first." He said angrily, "I still have some things to buy."
"Oh! Thank you for your hard work, Hagrid! Thank you for saving them in time!" Mrs. Weasley said gratefully, "I can't imagine two children appearing in a place like Knockturn Alley..."
Hagrid scratched his head shyly, said hello to you kid, and turned to leave.
They waved goodbye to Hagrid and then headed to Gringotts together. Harry had almost used up the money he had and needed to withdraw some more.
Hermione's parents were waiting on the white marble steps of Gringotts.
"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Granger." Glenn had met the two of them last year and greeted them politely.
Hermione's mother also recognized him and waved: "Hello, little Mr. Ollivander, long time no see."
They seemed to be preparing to exchange pounds for galleons, and Weasley noticed the banknotes in their hands at a glance.
"Look, Molly, Muggle currency!" He pointed at Mr. Granger's hand and said in surprise, "This is really interesting!"
The Grangers looked at him in confusion, looking a little embarrassed, but compared to the disdainful looks of the goblins, they could clearly feel Mr. Weasley's kindness.
"After I finish withdrawing the money, I will definitely buy you a drink!"
Mr. Weasley said cheerfully, handing the key to his home vault to the goblin on the counter.
Harry also took out his vault key from his pocket and handed it over.
"Do you also need to withdraw money, Mr. Ollivander?" The goblin stuck his head out and asked.
Glenn hesitated and nodded.
He had already bought his textbooks and other necessities in advance, but he also spent a lot of money. He still needed to leave some more money for Mr. Carmichael to provide supplies in the secret trading area until next summer. Food and drink costs.
Although those things are not worth a few dollars, they cost at least nearly a hundred galleons in a whole year.
"Show me your wand, Mr. Ollivander."
As one of Diagon Alley's biggest customers, Glenn doesn't even have to carry a key with him.
The characteristics of the rosewood wand were very obvious. The goblin inspected it for about half a minute and then handed it back with both hands.
"Griphook! Take some people to their treasury to withdraw money! Bring jingle pieces." He shouted loudly.
Everyone took several rail cars and headed to each vault in turn under the leadership of Grihuan.
The car was as usual, accelerating through the undulating tracks and turning sharp turns, just like a roller coaster.
Glenn had been to Gringotts many times and was already accustomed to this kind of transportation. It was not even as exciting as riding a broomstick.
The moment the Weasley family's vault door opened, Mrs. Weasley blushed slightly.
Just like what was written in the book, there was only a very inconspicuous pile of silver coins and a solitary gold galleon.
In comparison, the Potter family's treasury is obviously much richer.
As if to take the Weasley family's self-esteem into consideration, Harry moved as quickly as possible, grabbed a handful of Galleons and stuffed it into his pocket, and quickly let Griphook close the door.
Everyone returned to the railcar and continued to accelerate deeper into the ground.
As one of the oldest families, the Ollivander family's treasury is located in the most heavily guarded place in Gringotts.
They passed the Thief-proof Falls and continued forward until they reached the end of the track.
After the car stopped, they got off and walked instead.
"Why is your family's treasury so far away?" Harry shook the water on his head and asked.
Glenn shrugged and explained: "If Gringotts was built on your family's territory, they would also protect your treasury."
Harry looked confused when he heard this, and subconsciously walked inside, following Griphook around a corner.
The next scene in front of them shocked everyone——
Fire dragon!
Except for Glenn and Griphook, of course.
