Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

I saw that the welcome waiters standing in front of the two huge stone gates of Gringotts were no longer the red-clothed fairies of the past, but two wizards in tuxedos and white gloves.

Cruz frowned slightly.

He didn't like the greedy creature like the goblin at all. At this moment, when he saw the waiter turned into a wizard, he thought that the goblin hired a wizard to stand at the gate. In his opinion, this behavior was undoubtedly the following crime.

But Cruz didn't have an attack. He knew very well that he had no ability to argue with the goblins, so he resolutely confessed.

Of course, he himself did not want to admit that it was his cowardice. He was very proud to regard this behavior as the elegance of the nobles. After all, nobles would not have the same knowledge as slaves.

So Cruz raised his head and entered Gringotts proudly under the respectful escort of the two waiters.

As soon as he entered the Gringotts Hall, Cruz's already frowning brows became even tighter.

Because he found that not only the waiter at the door had been replaced by a wizard, but now even the appraisers who counted various gems and gold in the hall and the clerks at the counter had all become wizards.

Not only that, all the fairies-related elements in the hall have disappeared. The super tall counters set up by the fairies in order to be taller than the wizard have returned to their normal heights, and the dim oil lamps that the fairies were unwilling to replace have been replaced. It has become a new and bright magic lamp, and many glass windows have been opened on the outer wall.

All these changes made the entire Gringotts look brand new, swept away the gloomy atmosphere before, and became sunny.

Cruz stood in the brand-new hall where people came and went, and seemed a little at a loss for these changes.

At this time, a boy dressed as a waiter came up to greet him, with a bright smile on his face, and said to Cruz:

"Sir, is there anything I can do to help you?"

"Um...I'm here to withdraw money."

Cruz didn't react for a while. He looked at the handsome and confident young man in front of him, and he even stuttered when he spoke.

When the young man saw him like this, the smile on his face did not change, and he said:

"Come with me, sir, the deposit and withdrawal counter is here. You are here at the right time, and if you wait until it's almost noon, you will be in line.

"

While talking, the young waiter led Cruz to a counter, then pulled out a soft chair in front of the counter and let Cruz go in.

Cruz moved his butt, feeling the soft feeling from below, and his mood was slightly better.

He turned his head and saw a beautiful young woman standing behind the counter, her body upright, which made her hot body wrapped in uniform unmistakable.

Most importantly, like the young waiter, she also had that kind smile on her face.

All of this made Cruz also involuntarily have a smile on his face.

Then, before Cruz could speak, the young waiter informed the female clerk of Cruz's request to withdraw the money.

The female clerk was also neat, and she asked Cruz for her identity certificate and magic signature in a soft tone, and then she got the withdrawal record in three, five and two. Finally, she held a small bag of gold Galleons in both hands and handed it to Cruz.

During the period, the young waiter also brought a glass of ice water to Cruz.

At this moment, Cruz was already laughing so hard that he could not close his mouth. This was his most enjoyable withdrawal experience. Those goblins in the past would never have a good face when facing customers like him who came to withdraw money, as if he was in Like blackmailing those goblins.

Cruz laughed, patted the shoulder of the young waiter beside him and said:

"It's really excellent! I guess you must have come from some big family to experience life at Gringotts?"

After speaking, Cruz raised his head again, with a determined look on his face.

But the boy looked at the woman behind the counter, then raised his eyebrows and said:

"I'm sorry, sir, we are not pure blood wizards. My father and mother are ordinary people, which is what you call Muggles."

"Uh...how is this possible!" Cruz was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed, "How can such an excellent young man be mud..."

"Shh!"

Before Cruz could finish speaking, the young waiter made a mute gesture to stop him, then looked at him with a dangerous look and said:

"Sir, I advise you not to say that word. That word has been banned by the latest decree of the great Minister McTorley. If you say that word before us, you may be caught Azkaban."

Cruz stopped talking, he stared blankly at the young girl with a slightly stunned expression on his face.

Because he found that the warm smile on the young girl's face at the moment has disappeared, replaced by a faint indifference with pride and contempt.

Not only that, because his voice was too loud just now, other people at the counter have noticed the situation here, and are looking at him with the same dangerous eyes as the young girl, and even Cruz saw a The clothes were tattered, and it looked like an old mudblood witch was pointing at him and talking to the security personnel in the hall.

All of this sent chills down his spine!

He grabbed the money bag on the counter, turned his head and ran out of Gringotts as if he was running away. After making sure that no one was chasing him, he stopped panting, and while easing his breath, he carefully helped his own countless people. lots of hair.

Until now, he still couldn't believe that the two young girls were Mudbloods!

This is incredible!

Their behavior is simply more noble than Cruz himself, an old pure-blood nobleman!

After sighing how wonderful the world is, Cruz embarked on a journey to the coffee shop again. Although such an unpleasant thing happened to him before, he still had to pass the Noble Day.

And because of the previous experience in Gringotts, Cruz paid more attention to the shops on both sides when he was walking on the road.

I don't know if I don't see it, but Cruz was taken aback when he saw it.

At this time, the shops on both sides of Diagon Alley have also undergone earth-shaking changes. The strange shapes of the shops in the past have all disappeared, replaced by rows of strange buildings mixed with fantastic colors and modern atmosphere. This disgusted the freshman Cruz, he hated the modern style of architecture, in his words, this kind of Muggle architecture is ugly!

Cruz rubbed his eyes hard, so that he could forget the annoying scene just now, and then accelerated towards his intended goal.

But again he was disappointed.

The coffee shop he used to go to, which only dealt with pure-blood wizards, was now gone, replaced by a barbecue restaurant.

Their kitchen is open, and through the window Cruz can clearly see the young chef in the chef hat is skillfully making barbecue with a fire-breathing wand, and the business in their store is also very hot, and customers even queue up. Lined up outside the store. come read a book

The aroma of barbecue kept coming from the open store door, Cruz instinctively swallowed, but he didn't mean to enter the store at all.

Because this does not match his pure blood noble status!

On the street, Cruz stood blankly.

Looking at the continuous flow of people around and the lively scene of various stores holding events in front of the door, Cruz couldn't help but have a terrible idea in his mind.

‘Could it be that… the times have changed? ’

...

Inside the clock tower on the top floor of Gringotts, Mike was watching the lively street below through the huge brown glass.

A jet-black raven landed in front of him, turned his head, and looked curiously at the unexpected visitor who suddenly appeared in its home.

Its appearance also caught Mike's attention, and Mike stretched out his hand with a smile, wanting to stroke the raven's smooth feathers.

Seeing this, Raven's eyes flashed for a while. This smart little guy knows exactly what Mike is going to do. It has lived in Diagon Alley for a long time, and people often want to touch it.

Of course, those people usually bribe it with some food before touching it, sometimes some breadcrumbs, sometimes half a grilled fish.

And now Mike actually wants to prostitute for nothing!

Of course this is not allowed!

So the raven raised its head slightly, and by the way, waited for the hand to get closer and gave the ignorant hairless monkey in front of him!

However, before it could attack, it suddenly found that its body froze all of a sudden, and then the big hand grabbed it, and took it into its arms and slowly stroked it.

The raven was fat, and Mike was comfortable to the touch.

As he touched, he continued to look at Diagon Alley below, and the smile at the corner of his eyes became a bit more intense.

As he expected, there was potential for the Muggle community, especially those who had lived in the Muggle world for a long time.

These guys have the powers of wizards, as well as open minds and bright brains.

After Mike untied the expectations of the Muggle wizards, they naturally poured into all walks of life in the wizarding world, and gradually began to shine.

First and foremost is business.

In the past, the wizarding world of the country used to look down on all Muggle products, thinking that they belonged to the lowly Mudbloods, and disdain to make and use them.

But some Muggle products are really easy to use, the most classic being food and clothing.

Wizards crave these things, but are reluctant to get them from the Muggle world.

How to do it?

The answer is to go to an open country like France to buy imitations made by wizards, which not only satisfies their sense of superiority to wizards, but also allows them to use useful Muggle creations.

But the problem is, these things are very expensive in France.

And after Mike came to power and issued a series of decrees, those smart wizards seized this opportunity and began to slightly improve the things of the Muggle world and bring them back to Diagon Alley.

Not surprisingly, these cheap and useful things exploded! Miraculously, the economy of the magical world of the country recovered quickly after the war.

Just like the previous barbecue restaurant, it is actually an ordinary American BBQ barbecue restaurant. The poor Mike can't eat it at all, but because the chef is a wizard, he has also incorporated magic into the barbecue production process. , so it became a popular restaurant on Diagon Alley.

So, sometimes the minds of consumers, you really can't understand!

This is just business feedback. As the days go by little by little, Mike believes that there will be more surprises waiting for him in other places in the future.

After all, the most valuable resource of the wizarding society is talent. In the past, Muggle wizards were foolishly sealed by the Ministry of Magic, and now they are re-invested in the society at once, which will naturally cause a lot of feedback.

This can also be regarded as a special population benefit in a sense.

With a sigh, Mike let go of the raven in his arms and prepared to return to the Ministry of Magic to continue his work.

As soon as the unlucky raven got out of Mike's embrace, it found that it could move again. It flew to the huge pointer not far away in horror, and shouted loudly at Mike.

And Mike ignored him, waved his wand lightly, and the whole person turned into an afterimage and disappeared into the clock tower, leaving only the dazed raven.

At the same time, Tonks was lying on a wooden rocking chair.

Although it was summer, Tonks was still wearing long soft fur pajamas with a brown blanket covering his stomach.

Looking at the blanket Tonks sighed deeply, his face full of helplessness.

She didn't want to be so twisted, but it was Lupin's request.

And Lupin's reason for doing this is also very simple, that is, Tonks is pregnant.

This was something he had only known about not long ago. At that time, Lupin was going crazy with joy, and he didn't care about the fruits and vegetables growing in the fields. .

Sometimes Tonks was in the middle of the night, and Lupin would be taken care of before she woke up, and then looked at Tonks with a look of panic, and would not go back to sleep until she was sure that Tonks was all right.

Tonks admits that Lupin's overly concerned behavior did make her feel a little bit uncomfortable.

But she understood Lupin's behavior very well. After all, he was a werewolf. There is a high probability that a child born to a werewolf and an ordinary wizard will still be a werewolf, and only a very small probability will be a normal person.

This made Lupin very worried and guilty.

At the same time, Tonks actually enjoyed Lupin's meticulous care, which made her fully feel Lupin's love for her.

Recalling Lupin's ugliness while taking care of her, and his clumsy movements, Tonks gently stroked his belly while a bright smile appeared on his face, her changing colors. The hair turned into a soft pink directly.

While Tonks was still immersed in happiness, in the living room outside the sun room, two men, Lupin and Blake, sat in front of the extinguished fireplace with a frown, and said nothing for a long time.
