The Periodic Table of Words and Spirits at Hogwarts

Chapter 280: Borkin Blog's Shop

"What are you looking at"?

Astoria calmed down and then asked Zhang Qi.

"It's nothing, let's go back first, and let's cancel today's affairs."

Zhang Qi's face under the mask was already frowning, but he didn't really want to take this risk with another person.

"Don't you think I'm holding you back?"

In the words of Astoria.

"I do have this idea, but if you can go with me, I can also take care of me."

After some careful thought, Zhang Qi decided that it would be better for the two of them to continue exploring together.

In this way, if there is a situation that cannot be solved by themselves, the two of them can drag on for a longer time, and there will be more opportunities to escape.

"Sometimes I often think, would it be a mistake to take you to explore these things with your own eyes?"

As the two of them walked inside, Zhang Qi whispered.

"But I hope my sister won't know about these things. If she knows about me and you go on an adventure like this, she will definitely kill me."

Astoria let out a sigh.

"Your sister has taken good care of you. Although you can understand life in those hardships, compared with other children of pure-blood noble families, you have seen a lot less dark things."

The two continued to walk along the street.

"My mother told me that this place should sell forbidden magical animals, whether it's a curling demon or a dragon egg, as long as you are willing to pay, you can buy it here."

Zhang Qi pointed to a shop with a Longxing sign next to it.

"May I ask you two to point at me, do you want to come in and buy something?"

A masked wizard standing at the door of the store asked kindly, but his words made people feel a little cold for no reason.

"Two bottles of dragon blood, check out in cash."

Zhang Qi didn't say much, just took out a few gold coins and threw them.

"I'm very familiar with prices."

The man looked Zhang Qi up and down through the mask, then returned to the store and took out two glass bottles filled with red viscous liquid and handed them over.

"Why is the dragon's blood here so cheap? It's 1/3 cheaper than outside"!

Astoria asked in surprise.

"Because the dragons here are supposed to be poached, and they don't pay taxes to the Ministry of Magic, am I right, sir"?

Zhang Qi put the two bottles of dragon blood into his box.

"That's true, so other magical animal materials in our store are also much cheaper than outside, so come anytime if you want to buy them."

The shopkeeper said indifferently.

"But"……

Astoria's eyes widened under the mask, as if she couldn't believe that people who do this kind of illegal business would dare to tell such a straightforward story.

"Don't be so surprised, Miss Kaslana, the people here, except for most lunatics, are here to make money, and we're also breaking the British Magic Act by buying these materials. To a certain extent, we actually is an accomplice".

Zhang Qi tidied up his box, and then said goodbye to the shopkeeper.

"what are you worried about"?

Zhang Qi asked strangely, Astoria now has an aura of fear on her body.

"I just think, this place is really crazy."

Astoria stabilized her mind and answered in a difficult tone.

"Don't worry so much, the kind of thing we just encountered is just an accident. In a place like Europe, the darker the place, the stronger the law."

"When the laws outside can't manage them, as a social species, human beings will build new laws to adapt to a more severe environment. There are actually some rules here that no one dares to break."

"Otherwise, the number of corpses appearing at the entrance of the alley every day would not be a few, but dozens."

Zhang Qi's footsteps began to slow down, and then he stopped in front of a shop.

"Have you been here, Miss Kaslana?"

"I haven't been here, but I heard that Lucius often comes here."

Astoria looked at the black plaque and frowned under the mask.

"What are you doing here?"

"Come and buy something...Remember, my dear Miss Kaslana, don't touch anything when you go in, or you will die."

Zhang Qi stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the shop, then walked in.

The magic doorbell above the door suddenly made a strange sound, as if someone was moaning.

There was a pair of blood-stained playing cards on the shelf next to the door. Ordinary people would even feel dizzy when they looked directly at it.

On a shelf covered by glass, Astoria saw a very beautiful opal necklace. He instinctively wanted to raise his hand to touch it, but he remembered what Zhang Qi told him just now.

Zhang Qi didn't even turn his head, he tapped the back of Astoria's raised hand with his knuckles, and then walked straight to another shelf.

There was a dry human hand on the shelf, looking dark.

"Ah, new guest, what would you like to come?"

Right at this moment, a greasy, fat middle-aged man suddenly emerged from behind the counter, rubbing his hands maliciously.

"Hand of Glory"?

Zhang Qi then looked at the black withered hand with interest, and tapped it with his fingertips.

"Crack"!

That hand immediately wanted to grab Zhang Qi's wrist, but Zhang Qi pulled his hand back very quickly.

"Ah, yes, sir, as long as you light a candle on this hand, then you can walk freely in the dark like day, and no one else can see the light from your candle~www. wuxiaspot.com ~ ideal for those with special requirements".

The middle-aged man's eyes revealed greed for money.

"So how much do you plan to charge for such a good magic item?"

Zhang Qi asked with a smile.

"1000 Galleons".

The middle-aged fat man showed a smile.

"what is that"?

Zhang Qi didn't show any attitude. He pointed to a tattered wooden cabinet not far away and continued to ask.

"Ah, that's a vanishing cabinet, but there seems to be something wrong. If you want to buy it, 500 Galleons."

The middle-aged man continued.

"There are 500 gold coins in this bag, I want these two things."

Zhang Qi threw a money bag at random, and the man hurriedly grabbed the bag into his arms as if he was catching a treasure.

"Guest, did you give too little?"

A greedy expression appeared in the middle-aged man's eyes. He began to look up and down the two people, as if he had some bad ideas.
