Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Page 573

As long as Voldemort is not below, Ivan feels that it is not a problem to lead them to escape with his strength.

Hermione looked at Ivan, pursed her lips, and said nothing.

So did Ron, who couldn't stop watching that there were three of them, and finally accepted the decision.

"Okay, what are you going to do? Get in with an invisibility cloak?"

"You can just walk in, and it's not forbidden to enter there." Aiwen said, taking out four cloaks with hoods, "Of course, some necessary protective measures are still needed, don't let others see us look."

The four of them put on cloaks and covered their entire body tightly, and walked into the murderer's bar.

Not only the appearance, but the interior space of this bar is about the same size as the Leaky Cauldron.

But the decoration is completely different. The walls are painted with dark red paint, but the distribution is uneven, like coagulated blood clots, which looks very unpleasant. There are many dark blue curtains hanging inside the bar, dividing the room into private areas one after another. , a small table is placed in each area.

This decoration was originally full of mystery, but now it looks a little disgusting.Because the hygienic conditions in the bar are really bad, the curtains have not been washed for an unknown amount of time, they are covered with dust, and the color is also dark, and the original appearance can hardly be seen, and many curtains are crowded with people. Hu Meizi.

The room was dimly lit and the windows were so thick with grime that the light from outside could hardly get through.

There was also dust and grime on the floor and on the tables, it seemed like it hadn't been cleaned in centuries...

Chapter 1264 Wizard

This shows how chaotic the management of this place is.

Even Hogsmeade's Hog's Head Bar, the dirtiest place Ivan thought he had ever been to, was cleaner than here.

At the very least, Aberforth wiped down the table and drinking glasses.

But the owner here doesn't care about it at all, and there is rubbish everywhere.

Bottles and cups of drunk wine were piled up randomly, some were ruthlessly thrown on the ground, smashed, and some were scattered on the table.

The reason they don't take up the entire space is because the guests here are reusing them.

The customers of the bar took these cups that had been used by many people and went to the barrel at the bar to pick up the wine.

In other words, it was the unknown cloudy liquid that tasted like alcohol.

As for the safety and hygiene of these cups and liquids, it seems that it is not within the scope of customers of Murderer's Bar.

Aiwen was speechless, those dark wizards and dark creatures, don't they have any requirements for the environment and grade of the bar?

Or do they all have their heads screwed by black magic and love this particular setting?

If this is the case, then it really is a hobby like no other.

But this is not the worst, the most unbearable thing in this bar is the pungent smell in the air.

Just outside, Aiwen could clearly smell the strange smell of blood mixed with strong alcohol.

Now that he came in, the smell became more pungent. It seemed that while serving drinks, the Murderer Bar also provided raw food to his customers, and it was slaughtered on the spot. He could vaguely see the kitchen opposite the door, and the inside That chopping board, on which lay the corpse of some kind of animal.

It was torn in a mess, and it could be seen how unconfident the slaughterer was.

No bar would operate like this, which suits werewolf tastes.

Because of the wildness in their blood, many werewolves eat raw meat even when they are not transformed.

They are like beasts, habits and real wolves, even as people.

If the customers of the Murderer's Bar include a large number of werewolves, such food will be specially prepared for them. In addition, some dark wizards and other dark creatures also eat raw meat. They may also be the main customers of this bar.

As soon as Ivan and the others walked in, Hermione coughed violently because she couldn't stand the smell in the air.

Harry and Ron also had a painful expression. The two of them tried to breathe through their mouths, trying not to think about how dirty the air they inhaled was.

Ivan patted Hermione's back lightly. Stimulated by the smell, he also felt the contents of his stomach constantly rising up.

Without bothering to identify, it can be seen that the four of them are here for the first time.

Apparently, the other guests in the bar thought so too.

A few ragged wizards sitting in the corner muttered furtively, raised their heads from time to time, and looked at them with malicious eyes.

Behind the bar, the bar owner was also looking at the four uninvited guests, because he hid his whole body in the darkness, and Ivan couldn't see his appearance clearly.

By the flickering candlelight in front of the bar, one could see a pair of bloodshot eyes.

"You four, this is not where you should be," he said, his voice cold.

"We are going to the underground world." Ivan replied.

"Hmph!" The bar owner snorted heavily, but did not speak.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, and several people looked at each other.

Hermione reminded in a low voice, "Ask him if he saw Malfoy."

"Has anyone been in before us?" Harry asked immediately.

If Malfoy had really been here, the bar owner would have known, he had been guarding the bar all the time.

"This is a secret, you should know the rules."

"Of course, if you are willing to tell the secret, these are yours." Ivan took out a few gold Galleons.

In a place like Knockturn Alley, there are only two so-called rules, great power and gold.

Sure enough, the Jin Gallon that Ivan threw on the bar disappeared instantly.

"Someone went in just now, what do you want to know?" the bar owner asked, leaning forward.

By candlelight, one could see that he was a middle-aged wizard with a very fat figure.He had a shaggy beard, messy dull blond hair, a false smile on his face, and it was difficult to hide the greed in his eyes that looked at Ivan.

"We were looking for someone, about 5 minutes before us, he was 16 years old, and..." Harry described Malfoy's appearance again, "Well, did you see him coming?"

"There is such a person." The bar owner said, "Go in before you!"

Ivan and the others looked at each other, and Malfoy had indeed been here.

"If you are willing to pay more Galleons, I can tell you other information."

Ivan threw a few more Galleons over, and the bar owner quickly took the gold in his hands.

"No, these are not enough, give me ten more."

"I hope what you said is worth the price." Ivan took out ten more Galleons and handed them to him.

"Lovely Jin Jialong, it's always hard to refuse." He looked at Ai Wen more greedily, "I told this information, but I took a considerable risk. You may not know, that kid just now He didn't go in alone, he was picked up by Jerez to enter the underground world, you understand..."

Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Ron looked at each other again, they didn't understand.

Judging from what the other party meant, this Jaris seemed to be a very famous person.

"Who is Jeris?" Ivan asked.

"He is a werewolf, Greyback, the king of werewolves, and the most powerful subordinate." The bar owner lowered his voice again, almost only his mouth remained, "Greyback is a follower of the mysterious man, do you understand this time?"

So, Malfoy really came here to meet Greyback, and they were plotting something.

"I don't want to tell you what you want to do, but for the sake of Jin Jialong, I will give you another piece of advice. Don't provoke werewolves here." The bar owner continued, "Although you have stupid Hood, but I can see at a glance that the four of you don’t belong here at all, every year there are guys like you who don’t know the heights of the sky and the earth come to die, so get out of here before anything happens.”

"Thank you for your advice, but we can take care of ourselves." Ivan said, "We plan to go down and have a look."

Aiwen didn't think they could catch up with Malfoy, they had spent too much time at Borgin-Bock's black magic store just now, just like Hermione said, if the crypt space below is really that big, they would Couldn't find Malfoy even if he went in.

He planned to go to the underground world to see what it was like there.

"If you insist on going down, I suggest you find a guide, which can save you a lot of trouble." The bar owner licked his lips and said, "I am very familiar with the downside, and I can take you down, and it only costs ten gold plus Long, what do you think?"

Chapter 1265 Hidden Identity

People who come to the underground world for the first time do need a guide, but the premise is someone who can be trusted.

Otherwise, things may become more troublesome.

In the dangerous place below, it is needless to say what will happen to a guy with a dark heart.

Does the bar owner want money, or is there something else going on?

Ivan directly rejected the other party. Neither he nor Harry, Hermione, or Ron believed this guy. They decided to go down by themselves. Under the gaze of the other party's flashing malicious eyes, the four of them passed through the bar and entered a mess. kitchen.

"I don't like that guy, and I don't like this place even more," Ron said unabashedly.

"Hush, Ron, I have a bad feeling," said Hermione. "Does he see who we are?"

"Probably not, we wear hoods, but he must have doubts, the four of us are out of place with this place."

"Yeah, it's too obvious that the most sensible thing to do is to get out of here immediately," said Hermione.

"You've said this many times, Hermione, we just go down and have a look, aren't you curious about it?" Ron said disapprovingly, "So what if he knows who we are? Wenzai, what do we have to worry about?"

"If Malfoy knows the four of us are following him because of this..."

"That's just right, I can't wait to beat him up and let him tell everything, and see what kind of conspiracy he and the werewolf are planning." Ron covered his nose, "Oh my God, this smell! It's too sweet!" Disgusting!"

In front of them was a cavernous kitchen surrounded by rough stone walls.

In the room, most of the light comes from the innermost fire, the stairs leading to the basement are beside the fireplace, and the black pans and other cooking utensils that look particularly grim are hanging from the dark ceiling.

Plus, there's a lot of stuff like seasoned cuts of meat.

But the most eye-catching thing in the kitchen is the pungent-smelling flesh and blood spread on the chopping board.

I was far away just now, and I couldn't see it clearly, but now I can clearly see this torn animal carcass.

"This place looks like a slaughterhouse!" said Ron. "Do they just kill the animals? Look at this thing, it's disgusting."

"They don't seem to use a knife, they just tore it off." Harry said in surprise, staring at the piece of meat.

"How could a normal person do that?" said Hermione, taking one look before looking elsewhere.

"It seems to be true, it's strange..." Ivan narrowed his eyes, and leaned over to carefully observe the blood and flesh on the chopping board.

There are not only traces of being torn on it, but also seems to have been bitten by something.

Judging from the traces, it should be not long ago that someone in this bar really ate raw meat in this way.

Kitchen, raw meat, werewolves, Ivan suddenly thought of something, and a terrible idea appeared in his mind.

He turned his head and saw the bar owner looking at them, only a silhouette could be seen in the dim light.

"The stairs are here, let's go." Hermione said, holding out her wand, "Luminescence flashes."

In the light of wands, they descended the stairs, and there was no one in the basement, where there were many huge wine barrels.

Ivan thought about the thoughts he had just had, and asked, "Have you noticed the bar owner's eyes?"

"I saw it, his eyes were bloodshot, he must have not slept well last night." Hermione recalled.

"It's obvious, how is it possible to sleep well in a place like this."

"It's not the bloodshot eyes, but the color of the eyeballs, and the pupils..." Ai Wen said, "That's not the eyes that normal people should have. There are some marks. I've seen it on Lupine's body before. That guy may be a Werewolves."

"Wolfman!"

As soon as Ivan finished speaking, Harry, Hermione, and Ron all turned around and looked at him in surprise.

If this is the case, it is really terrible, and there is a chilling feeling.

The bar owner just reminded them to be careful of werewolves here, but now Ivan said that he himself is a werewolf.

"I can't be sure. After all, werewolves are no different from ordinary people before transforming. There are only some subtle differences. The light just now was too dark, and I didn't see other features." Ai Wen said, "But the one in the kitchen above The meat reminded me that normal people don’t cut meat like that, and there are bite marks on it, I can’t think of any creatures that would eat raw meat except werewolves.”

"That piece of meat did have bite marks on it," Harry said, turning his head, but there was nothing behind him.

He had an inexplicable strange feeling, as if he was being watched. This bar was really eerie and weird.

"Also, he reminded us that Malfoy was picked up by a werewolf, which is suspicious in itself, isn't it?"

"I'm thinking about this." Hermione analyzed, "If those werewolves were really that strong around here, and the bar owner was really as afraid of werewolves as he said, he wouldn't have paid for a few gold plus Long told us this information."

"Yes, this is where he looks suspicious." Ai Wen said, "Be careful and be vigilant. If the bar owner is not a werewolf, he is also a pervert with special hobbies. He won't do nothing. It shouldn't be too lonely coming down."

Knockturn Alley is still under the control of the Ministry of Magic on the surface. If the other party plans to do something, they have to wait until Aiwen and the others enter the underground world before doing anything. The four of them look very suspicious in this kind of place. Excellent robbery target.

This kind of result is inevitable, but the real identity of the bar owner makes people feel creepy.

Harry, Hermione, and Ron were still discussing this topic, and the three of them kept turning their heads to make sure that no one was following.

Ivan came to the wall on the north side of the basement. He looked at the wall carefully, and then tapped a brick lightly with his magic wand.

Like the way the Leaky Cauldron got into Diagon Alley, this was a very common magical trap in that era.
