The architectural layout inside the store is completely different and bears no resemblance to the 'Leaky Cauldron' in Coven's memory.
The surrounding walls are filled with display racks, which contain a large number of things related to wizard culture, such as robes, wands, various potion bottles, skulls representing dark wizards, and so on.
However, in Ke Wen's perception, everything does not have any magical atmosphere.
The layout of the rest of the place is like a restaurant, with an inner bar and some tables and chairs in the lobby.
All the appliances looked very old, but Ke Wen could tell at a glance that those things were modern high-end imitations, and the old-fashioned technology was not high-end.
Continue to divert attention.
Kewen looked at the guests who were communicating in the hall, but he glanced away in disappointment, because these were ordinary people and did not have any magic power in their bodies.
Finally, he looked behind the bar and finally found a real wizard.
It was a middle-aged man who looked like he was the owner of the store.
The other party was not Old Tom from the Leaky Cauldron, nor was it the last owner, the Iron Lady Hannah Abbott.
But Ke Wen no longer thought about it and walked past the tables and chairs to reach the bar.
"Guest, what do you need?"
The shop owner smiled politely and said: "My shop is the most comprehensive shop related to wizarding culture in the UK. Customers can find everything you want here, and you can also talk freely with fellow fans. You don't know
I don’t receive any strange looks from the outside world.”
Ke Wen was silent for a moment, then flicked his fingers and gave the opponent a gold galleon bullet.
After the shop owner stretched out his hand to catch it accurately, Kewen whispered: "I need to go to Diagon Alley."
The shop owner was stunned: "I'm sorry, guest, what did you say?"
Ke Wen frowned slightly, stretched out his finger and tapped the gold coin in the opponent's palm: "Golden Galleons, let me go to Diagon Alley if it's easier."
The shop owner had a very strange look in his eyes, as if he was looking at some mental patient.
After looking at Ke Wen's whole body, the shop owner looked at Ke Wen's expression again, and then smiled awkwardly and said: "I'm sorry, guest, although I am the boss, I don't know much about wizard culture. If you
Want to know about uh... Diagon Alley?"
The shop owner recalled for a moment and continued: "If you want to know the legend about 'Diagon Alley', I can issue a summons message for you."
While talking, the boss took out his touch-screen phone, clicked on a group chat and said: "You can pay the membership fee to join our club. I will post news for you in the group to find people who are also interested in the legend of 'Diagon Alley'.
Fellow fans."
Ke Wen was a little impatient. He pointed his finger at the shop owner and instantly cast the 'Soul-stealing Curse' on him.
Although the shop owner is a wizard, he can't resist Coven's magic at all.
The opponent was hit before he could even react.
With a tired sigh, Ke Wen said again: "Take me to Diagon Alley."
"There is no... Diagon Alley..."
This answer stunned Ke Wen. He immediately checked his magic spell and frowned even more when he found that there was no problem.
After thinking for a while, Ke Wen asked again: "Where does the back door lead to?"
"Wizard... Street..."
"Tsk..." Ke Wen was a little depressed: "Have you changed your name? But it's impossible. Even if you change your name, you still have to know that it was called 'Diagon Alley' before, right?"
After finishing muttering, Kewen asked: "What year is it now?"
"May 28, 2014."
"Ten years..."
Ke Wen felt very strange. He left in 1994. How come the world has changed so much after ten years?
Without thinking any more, Ke Wen immediately directed the store owner to take him to the back alley.
Soon, the two of them walked out of the back door.
Next, the store owner's actions made Ke Wen frown again.
Because the other party did not use the wand to hit the bricks, but used the wand to cast an opening spell on the wall.
As the wall transformed into a passage, Kewen shook his head without thinking too much, and raised his hand to erase the store owner's memory of the past few minutes.
No longer caring about the other party, Kewen stepped into the passage and entered the 'Diagon Alley' in his memory.
However, a picture appeared that stunned him again.
What you see in front of you is no longer the narrow alley of Diagon Alley, but a modern street.
Ke Wen kept walking forward in a daze. He looked at the shops on both sides of the street, but he didn't see any familiar figures.
Until Corwin stopped at the door of Ollivander's Wand Shop, he was completely stunned.
A completely unfamiliar store, with the word 'Wand Shop' only on the plaque above the door.
The interior of the store is very new and bright, with a large number of wands displayed in glass display cabinets.
There was no sign of Ollivander in the store, nor was there any sign of Spirit.
Ke Wen felt very confused.
He didn't know how long he stood at the door of the store, and he didn't know how many strange looks he received.
Until two wizards came around.
Two middle-aged wizards surrounded Kewen on the left and right. They held wands and looked ready to attack at any time.
"Young man, what are you doing here?"
The wizard on the right said coldly: "Unseen face, where are you from?"
Kewen came back to his senses, looked at the two wizards left and right, and then barely controlled the friendliness in his tone: "I'm from... Hogwarts."
"Hogwarts?"
The wizard who asked the question was stunned. He looked at his companion, and after receiving a blank look in response, he couldn't help but continue to ask Coven: "Where is Hogwarts? Your accent sounds like a local, but I have never heard it before.
Said something about 'Hogwarts', so what is that place? Where is it located?"
Ke Wen's heart continued to sink. He forced a smile to save himself and said: "What about Hogsmeade? Have you heard of it? Principal Albus Dumbledore!? Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!?
The savior Harry Potter!? Professor McGonagall! Professor Snape! Or Voldemort!?”
Ke Wen's tone was a little anxious: "Please! It doesn't matter who it is! Have you heard of it!?"
"Young man! Calm down!"
The two wizards pointed their wands at the excited Coven at the same time. The other wizard said: "Sorry young man, I have never heard of who or where you are talking about."
Ke Wen took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked in a dry voice: "Excuse me...the magic academy here in the UK is..."
"Flamel Academy." The wizard on the right replied.
"Ha... Flamel Academy..."
Ke Wen's whole body lost some strength, and he lowered his head and sighed: "I've never heard of it..."
However, the next moment, a piece of memory information suddenly appeared in his mind.
After reminiscing, Ke Wen was stunned again and completely stunned.
"Young man!? Young man!?"
The call brought Kewen back to his senses. The wizard on the right threatened Kewen with his wand: "Please come with us and accept the investigation. We are agents of the Ministry of Magic!"
With that said, the two wizards took out their certificates from their arms at the same time and showed them to Ke Wen.
"Ministry of Magic..."
Ke Wen smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly: "Well, the name of the Ministry of Magic has not changed..."
"Please don't make unnecessary moves."
The wizard on the right solemnly warned: "Please follow us back to the Ministry of Magic for investigation!"
Ke Wen opened his mouth, but in the end he was too helpless to say anything, so he nodded feebly.
…
In this world, there is Britain, there are wizards, and there are magic schools.
But in this world, there are no "floo fans", no "traveling phantoms", and no magic buses.
When he walked out of Wizard Street, Ke Wen was pushed into a car by two wizards.
Not long after driving, Ke Wen finally couldn't help but ask: "Just drive to the Ministry of Magic? Isn't there a more convenient way? Teleportation, or magic props or something?"
The wizard escorting Kewen in the back seat was a little surprised. After thinking for a while, he responded: "Aren't you a wizard? Otherwise, why don't you understand such a simple history of magic?"
"I am a wizard." Ke Wen said with some helplessness: "A regular academic wizard, graduated from the 'Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry'... forget it..."
It was useless to explain that, and Ke Wen turned to say: "Can you tell me about that period of magic history? It shouldn't be confidential information, right?"
"That's not true."
The wizard in the back seat may have realized that Ke Wen was not in any danger, but had some mental problems, so he was idle and began to explain.
According to what he said, during World War I a hundred years ago, an alchemist used human body to refine it, and thus obtained the highest achievement item of alchemy, the "Philosopher's Stone".
However, it takes a lot of life to refine the 'Philosopher's Stone', so the alchemist was discovered and was hunted by the entire magic world.
In the end, the alchemist used the "Philosopher's Stone"'s effect of making people immortal as a temptation, and beguiled many people to help him escape from the magic world.
Among those people were wizards, magicians, alchemists, etc., and they took away many inheritances.
During World War II, wars also started among practitioners from various countries. During the fighting, many lineages were gradually and completely cut off.
Magic that allows people to distort space and teleport has long been lost.
Today, there is only one overseas island where the inheritance taken away by the betrayers still exists, but due to some special reasons, those inheritances cannot be recovered.
Kewen listened and smiled bitterly in his heart.
He didn't even need to induce more keywords to come out, he was already able to determine what kind of world this was...
More than ten minutes later, Kewen was taken into a high-rise building, went all the way down through the elevator, and entered the Ministry of Magic in this world.
He was searched by the guards, and it turned out that except for a few "Gold Galleons" that he had temporarily transferred from the "Rubik's Cube World", there was nothing on his body.
Subsequently, Ke Wen was put into a guard room again, waiting for someone to investigate.
He was the only one left in the room. Ke Wen immediately lost his mind and asked the 'Travel Rubik's Cube' about what went wrong during this time travel...
