Chapter 2627 Wind and Flowers (6)

As a member of Goblin Finance and the Red-Nosed Wizard Investment Alliance, it is not surprising for goblins to appear at family gatherings, although the Smith family seems to have never heard of anyone marrying a goblin.

But Pomona met her "next family" here. She usually sold the magical plants she grew to him, but he would always dress up when he appeared in Hogsmeade.

Now that news of a basilisk being dismantled and sold in Hogwarts spread like wildfire, she wanted to leave quietly before he found out, but Amos Diggory from the Goblin Liaison Office walked straight over, so they had no choice but to separate.

Take action.

After passing through the crowd of people dancing on the lawn, she came to an almost empty tent. Although it had rained a few days ago and the temperature dropped a bit, it was still a bit hot. After a short while, she felt

My whole body was covered in sweat.

She took a cup of cocktail that was piled into a tower and drank it all in one gulp. It smelled like cherry, so she couldn't help but drink another cup, and then she breathed a long sigh of relief.

She learned this from Mr. Evans. The first thing he did when he came home after get off work was to take a glass of cold beer from the refrigerator and drink it. He always did that after drinking.

She felt that this was a Muggle "custom".

"one person?"

Pomona looked back in that direction and found that the speaker was a Muggle wearing a gray summer suit.

She didn't like the look in his eyes, like she was some kind of prey.

So she tried to leave, but she almost got caught on the hem of her robe.

Her robe grew longer, or in other words, her figure shrank, so the clothes that originally fit her became baggy.

What was even more frightening than the fact that the Polyjuice Potion failed was that she walked in front of so many people so disheveled...

Just before she was about to scream, someone grabbed her hand and left the tent. He took her to a corner where fewer people went, where there were many wine barrels piled up.

Severus raised his hand so that his black cloak could shield her and create a small dark room.

It was obviously midsummer, but she was shivering just like winter.

In the romance novels she had read, the hero and heroine always went to a sparsely populated place for a tryst, usually a garden or something.

But that's not the point. The point is that she didn't know what was in the cocktail she just drank, so she just drank one cup after another.

Some magic potion ingredients are often added to wine in the wizarding world. Wizards like not only the taste, but also the magical effects produced after drinking it. It is similar to Honeydukes candy. Although Muggle candy is also very interesting, eating lemon snow

The treasure won't float or breathe fire.

"I got the news," he whispered. "Do you want to hear it now or later?"

"What?" she said in a daze. She felt like she really couldn't drink enough. She got drunk after just two drinks.

He might find it interesting and asked with a smile, "What did you drink this time?"

"It's all your fault!" She hit him hard. "The polyjuice potion you brewed is becoming less and less effective."

He didn't move at all, and her fists were all muscle. He was no longer the skinny boy he was before.

Minerva and Felivi had a pure friendship despite their different genders.

But when they were together, it was not like they are now.

The biggest difference between dark wizards and ordinary wizards is that as long as they want something, they will steal it. In order to get what they want, they need power, and in order to get power, they dare to violate any taboos, even if they pay a heavy price

.

After being possessed by a mysterious man, Quirrell drank the blood of a unicorn in order to maintain his body, which was getting closer to collapse.

And Harry had touched the Philosopher's Stone with his hands. This purest substance not only makes you immortal after drinking it, it also has the effect of "refining" gold and refining the human body.

Pomona believed that Quirrell's body was "decomposed" by the Philosopher's Stone instead of being protected by Lily's protective magic. The palms of living people will sweat due to nervousness. When this "water" touches the Philosopher's Stone,

There would be some residue of the stone, but Harry did not lick the liquid on his palm. The Philosopher's Stone decomposed Quirrell's body, but did not use these "substances" to create anything else. This process represented destruction.

The only permissible, or less punishing, form of human transformation is the union of a man and a woman, with people binding their fidelity through marriage and oaths.

Loyalty is a kind of strength and a burden.

If you don't have the strength, but you shoulder the burden, you will end up being overwhelmed and finally crushed by the responsibility. Just like Sirius asked Wormtail to be the secret keeper of the Red Faithful Curse, but the result was that the Potter family had hidden the Red Faithful Curse well.

Because of the traitor's betrayal, Sirius Black was imprisoned in Azkaban for twelve years because of Wormtail.

The wine Pomona just drank is not like fire whiskey, but alcohol evaporates quickly after being heated by body temperature. The perfume takes advantage of this feature. Many aromatic substances are dissolved in alcohol, so when applying perfume, spray it on the neck and wrists.

These are places with high pulse or temperature.

These are not things that the "dead" can feel.

"After Herbarts Smith died, she left no will and she had no heirs. In order to distribute her inheritance, two brothers of the Smith family had a duel, which was presided over by Fudge." He suddenly said coldly.

"They both accused each other of secretly possessing the two most valuable relics."

Pomona was completely dazed. At this time, he had already retracted his arm, "dismantled" the darkroom, and walked to stand a few steps away from her.

"What two?" After standing in the sun, her mind became clearer.

"Slytherin's locket and Hufflepuff's golden cup." He replied clearly. "Have you looked carefully at Slytherin's portrait? It's on his chest."

Pomona quickly recalled the painting in his mind, as if there was indeed such a thing.

A citrine-like pendant with an "S" shaped snake inside.

"Many people are speculating about what is in the locket." Snape said. "What do you think?"

Pomona originally wanted to guess that there were portraits of the Slytherin family, as many people did.

"Herbutt Smith felt that her locket was real, but unlike others, she placed it in a conspicuous place in the living room, and only a few people knew of its existence."

Pomona said that she had indeed seen the elf's memory. Herbarts Smith kept the gold cup and another item and showed it only to the handsome Riddle.

"How did you know?" Snape asked.

"Dean!" Cedric yelled.

Pomona was about to agree.

"You want him to see you like this?" Snape said teasingly.

Pomona looked at her clothes. Not to mention the change in her appearance, her clothes could easily give rise to bad associations.

"You...you brought Polyjuice Potion?" she stammered.

"No, I have a better idea." Severus said, then grabbed her hand and disapparated directly.

==================================================

=========

Georgiana put down the pen she had just picked up.

Rather than writing a letter to persuade Bonaparte to buy diamonds, she felt that she should first investigate the ins and outs of the burning of the warehouse. After all, Marie Antoinette had been deeply involved in a scandal because of a diamond necklace.

So she changed the letter to be addressed to Padma, who should be in London at the moment.

In fact, in addition to Americans, there are people who may benefit from it, and that is the Dark Lantern Festival that Georgiana heard about not long ago. They said they would hold an "event" at Christmas, and they would become famous for it.

Mr. Martin had this idea because he was dealing with this aspect of affairs. If you want to get cheap cotton, you must start the "Westward Expansion". You have to wait until real gold is discovered in the western United States. Workers participating in the gold rush hope that

Only when wear-resistant fabrics can be used to make clothes can canvas be used instead of cotton, and "white gold" will no longer be so valuable.

A light bulb can actually be used for many years, but if the light bulb manufacturer does not care about shoddy manufacturing, how long will it take before the light bulb breaks and customers need to buy new ones?

Countries in Europe are now short of coins and gold and silver. In fact, if individuals take out the coins hidden in their own vaults or jars and spend them, they will not be short. But coins are not banknotes after all, and there is no need to worry about them being damaged if they are placed underground.

During the Great Depression, Roosevelt used fireplace talk to persuade the American people to deposit their money in reputable banks. The same situation was impossible to replicate in the early 19th century because there was no radio, let alone one that was widely available.

According to Gamp's Law of Transfiguration, a wizard cannot conjure something whose internal structure he or she does not know. Although a wizard does not need to know what the organs in a turtle's belly look like, the turtle moves on a different principle than a clock, and Pomona does not know how a radio works.

Working, she can't conjure up a radio that can make sounds on its own.

Even magic has its limitations, and magic cannot resurrect the dead, but Voldemort succeeded.

This is really a terrible thing, although it is unparalleled. I hope that such a "person" will not appear again in the future.
