Chapter 309 Dumbledore Visits
·
Nian Gao Pei Ma Tuan
In the next few days, Glenn's life was extremely peaceful.
Every day I wake up naturally, go to my own shop twice, then stroll to Mr. Kalcher's second-hand shop, drink and brag with the traders and liars and thieves who come to trade. Like a real rich dude.
Under the introduction of Mr. Carmichael, he met the thief who had sneaked into Crouch Manor - Robert Esrickel.I have to say that this guy is indeed very courageous. In addition to the Crouch family, he has even visited the Malfoy family's manor.
According to him, the life of the Malfoy family was indeed not easy. In order to get Lucius Malfoy out of the hands of the Aurors, in addition to the family property, the family even sold off many previous properties in the manor. Antique utensils, this was enough to collect the bail money.
As a result, Esrikel carefully wandered around his family's manor for most of the night, but couldn't find anything particularly valuable, so he had to take away a few sets of tableware with family crests printed on them to avoid wasting time. trip.
"Esricl... this name seems a bit familiar..." Glenn recalled it carefully and asked, "Do you have any relationship with Mr. Eldon Esricl, who introduced the lock-picking spell to the UK?" What’s the relationship?”
Esrikel looked surprised and said somewhat flattered: "I didn't expect that Master Glenn would actually understand such a shady little person like us! You are right, my ancestor was the famous man in the 17th century. 'The Ghost Thief of Old London'."
Seeing his proud look, Glenn couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that even the thieves industry had such a family tradition that had been passed down for hundreds of years.However, looking at this guy's shabby clothes and the shabby look of malnutrition on his face, it is obvious that he is far less successful than his famous ancestor.
Through conversation, Glenn learned that the reason why this guy was so poor was not because of his poor craftsmanship.On the contrary, his level of cracking the anti-theft curse and the disembodiment curse is even much better than Mundungus.
However, although his skills are good, his vision and luck are not very good. He has ventured to visit the manor of those big families several times, but he has never come across the most valuable good things.
Except, of course, the Crouch family commemorative pocket watch.
Although he didn't know the goods, Mr. Carmichael still gave a good price. This was the highest income he had ever received in his many years in the industry.
Although Glenn felt that this guy might be useful in the future, he did not show any obvious solicitation. He just treated him to a large glass of good-quality single malt whiskey on the pretext of being close to each other.
Although this wine is not a good liquor, it is undoubtedly much better than the low-quality rum provided for free in the store.Although most of the people at the bottom of society like Robert are drunkards who are addicted to alcohol, they have to save up at least two or three months to have such a good drink.
Therefore, to Robert, Master Glenn is definitely a generous and good man.
Glenn chatted in the trading area for a while, but seeing that he couldn't get any useful information, he didn't stay any longer and went all the way back to his wand shop.
Coincidentally, he had just entered the door not long ago and was packing away the scattered wands and empty boxes on the counter when a soft "ding bell~" sounded and the store door was pushed open.
"Hello, welcome to Ollivander's Wand Store." Glenn greeted him habitually, and then raised his head.
With a waist-length silver beard and long hair, behind the iconic half-moon lenses are a pair of bright blue eyes, coupled with an aquiline nose that looks like it has been interrupted -
Albus Dumbledore.
Today he was wearing a light gray robe of exquisite material and a pair of buckled dragon leather boots. He looked like an elegant figure.
"Hello, dear Glenn."
This scene is a bit like the scene when he first met Dumbledore three years ago and suddenly activated the system.
"So it's you, professor, good afternoon." Glenn smiled, without being polite, and continued to clear the counter with his head down.
Although his reaction was a little mild, Dumbledore was not angry and sat down on the bench in the store with a smile.
Not long after, old Ollivander came out from behind the shelves and stretched out his right hand towards Dumbledore.
"Long time no see, Albus."
"Garrick! It's been so long since the last time I came here." Dumbledore stood up and shook hands with him, then winked at Glenn and said, "I have to say, compared to three years ago, this place seems better. It’s become a bit messy…”
He pointed at the random wand cartons on the surrounding shelves.Since Glenn had just come back a few days ago, he hadn't had time to tidy up the store.
"It's easier to find this way." Old Ollivander blushed and explained forcefully.
Glenn, who was behind the counter, quickly lowered his head to prevent his grandfather from seeing his uncontrollable smile.
"I believe Glenn has told you the purpose of my visit this time, right?" Dumbledore asked while maintaining a smile.
"Of course," Old Ollivander nodded, "it's a little crowded here, why don't we go inside and have a cup of tea?"
Naturally, Dumbledore would not object. The two old men walked through the shop one after another and headed to the living room of the Ollivander family's old house, leaving Glenn to look after the shop in the front hall.
Although he did not join the conversation between the two, everyone knew that the final result should be decided by Glenn himself.
And since talking to his grandfather on the day he came back, Glenn had already been ready to go to the medieval ruins in person.
The conversation between the two did not last long, and Dumbledore soon returned to the front hall.
"If I'm not wrong, you should have made your decision, right?" Dumbledore asked directly without any further politeness.
Glenn nodded: "I think so, Professor. When do we leave?"
He didn't show off and asked directly.
"It seems that you can't wait for our next action." Dumbledore smiled again.
Although he was almost certain that Glenn would not choose to refuse, he still breathed a sigh of relief when he actually heard his decision.The young man he valued most did not disappoint him.
"It's not that I can't wait," Glenn shrugged, "I just don't want to delay my return to Hogwarts on time."
"In that case, if you don't mind, our departure date will be set in two days, how about it?"
