Chapter 529: Gringotts

After dinner on the last day of February, Ryan and Hermione had just entered the library to prepare to study and do their homework together in the library. Suddenly a flame flashed across the table in front of them, and a tightly rolled piece of parchment suddenly appeared on the table.

Is Principal Dumbledore looking for you? Hermione turned her head and asked, because the fire just now was so obvious that it was a phoenix delivering something, and the only phoenix in the whole castle was Deng Xiaoping. Bullido's Fox is up.

It should be. Ryan lowered his head and opened the rolled parchment, and found a few lines of words written on it in slender, circled fonts: Please bring the things you prepared to come to the principal's office immediately, we should go Yes, the password is gold coin chocolate.

At the best time, Ryan bid farewell to Hermione, and asked her to bring his textbooks back to the common room, and then quickly ran upstairs to where the principal's office was. When he opened the door with the password and went up the spiral staircase, the oak door opened, and Ryan found that in addition to Dumbledore sitting in the chair he used to sit in in a purple robe, Sirius was also wearing a purple robe. The rather formal robe looked a little stiff and sat on another chair.

Good evening, Principal Dumbledore. Good evening, Sirius. Ryan greeted the two in the office first. We are now—

We're going to get Voldemort's Horcrux in Gringotts Bella's vault now. Professor Dumbledore nodded. Because I got conclusive evidence today, Voldemort took Bella and two other Death Eaters to Greece on business. They have left the UK now, and I can guarantee that we will not be directly encountered by them when we are looking for things .”

But how do we get in later? Is it a storm or an infiltration? Ryan asked.

Neither. Dumbledore shook his head slightly. You don't need to talk for a while. I have a very good way to break through most of the guards in front. Of course, this requires the help of Sirius, which is why I called him here today.

It's my pleasure to help you with such an important matter, Professor Dumbledore. Xiaotian nodded slightly.

After making sure that everyone was ready, Professor Dumbledore stood up behind the table, and then asked Sirius to hold his hand, and Ryan took Sirius' hand. We're using Fox to go to Diagon Alley now, so you two get a hold of it.

After Ryan and Sirius nodded, Fawkes the Phoenix flew from the shelf to Dumbledore's free hand. After a flash of fire, the three disappeared from the principal's office.

When the fire in front of him dissipated, Ryan found that they had appeared in an unobtrusive corner of Diagon Alley. After arranging their clothes, they started walking towards Gringotts.

The facade of Gringotts, unlike all the shops in this street, was built of snow-white marble. If it didn't look distorted, the building could even be called grand. Of course, even if the whole building is crooked. Gringotts still towers over the surrounding shops and stands out from the rest of the street.

Even though it was already night at this time, the bronze door of Gringotts was still gleaming after being wiped. A very short goblin stood there in the same scarlet uniform that was neatly ironed as it was during the day, bowed politely when he saw Ryan and the others coming, and then opened the door.

Ryan used to only come to Gringotts once a year on average. In his memory, every time he came to Gringotts, he always had to go through that short corridor, spend more than ten minutes queuing with a group of people, and then return to Gringotts. You have to pass several tests before you can go to the counter to handle the business you need. If it were to be placed outside, the bank would have closed down a long time ago with this kind of service attitude.

The reason why Gringotts is so prosperous is also thanks to the fact that there is only such a bank in the wizarding world.

Fortunately, today they are using the excuse of doing business with Sirius, so that they can avoid the queues and other problems faced by a lot of ordinary wizards. Now that Sirius is the patriarch of the Black family, he can naturally enjoy the special services that Gringotts opened for pure-blood families. Just as the three of them stepped into the hall, an old goblin wearing a monocle and a tuxedo greeted them.

Ah, Dear Headmaster Dumbledore, Mr. Black and this young gentleman. Is there anything I can do to help you? The goblin walked up to her and bowed deeply, even his big nose almost touched the floor superior.

That's right. Sirius stepped forward and said. I have some things in the family treasure house that I need to trade to my young partner, and since the things I want to give him are very precious and the young man is still in school, his headmaster, Mr. Dumbledore, will serve as Witnesses have witnessed our transactions, so we now want access to my vault.

Of course no problem. The old goblin nodded. Then show your proof.

Sirius took out a golden key inlaid with emeralds from his bosom, the old goblin inspected it and nodded slightly, then bowed again and said. There is no problem with the key, we can start right away.

After speaking, he clapped his hands lightly, and a younger goblin came over.

I want to use jingle pieces, said the older goblin, and the young goblin left quickly, and in a short while brought a small leather bag to the older goblin, which seemed to be full of jingling metal. . Okay, okay! Please come with me, three respectable gentlemen. The elder goblin said, turning around and starting to lead the way, I will take you to the vault of the Black family.

Soon he took Ryan and the three of them through the hall sandwiched by a lot of counters. At this time, Ryan noticed that it was different from what he saw during the day. Yawning, nowhere near as much as the day staff.

Soon they passed through the door at the rear of the hall, and came upon a rough stone porch lit by burning torches. However, Ryan found that these torches were not ordinary torches at all, each of them was a magic item.

Did you also find the problem with the torch? Sirius said beside Ryan as he stared at the torch, I'm also very curious about why there are such crude torches in places like Gringotts for the first time , but at that time my cousin Andromeda, Tonks' mother, told me that these torches are some precious magic props, as long as the magic power is injected once, these flames will last for a whole year.

Really— Ryan didn't know what to say at this time, even if it was far from Gublai's immortal fire, as long as it was related to magic props, it would not be cheap. Ryan didn't expect these goblins to be so rich.

The goblin who received Ryan and the others stood at the front hole and blew a whistle, and a small cart rolled along the track from the darkness. Four people with the goblin can just fill this small car.

Our Gringotts underground vault is the safest place to hide treasures. You can choose us to keep your wealth in the future. After the car started, the goblin sitting in front began to chatter. He mainly aimed at Ryan, because there were not many students who could be partners of a pure-blood family and accompanied by Dumbledore. In his impression, Ryan did not handle any financial business at Gringotts.

So the goblin took the opportunity straight away to try and win business for Gringotts. As for the fact that Ryan is not a pure-blood wizard, the goblins don't value it. After all, for them, gold is the same no matter what the human blood is. If it weren't for the International Statute of Secrecy, they would even be willing to do business with Muggles.
