Hogwarts: Where are the Pokémon?

Chapter 143 Knockturn Alley
Knockturn Alley.

As the largest wizarding commercial street where dark wizards gather in the British wizarding world, it is almost as famous as Diagon Alley.Even the young wizards at Hogwarts know how dangerous it is.

Of course, compared to Diagon Alley, this place looks a bit smoky.

Many black wizards hang around here, they are dressed in rags, they are as dirty as beggars, and in fact they stink all over, compared to Snape, he is considered clean and hygienic.

These black wizards usually wander in the alleys, or simply lie on the ground or street corners.With the eyes hidden behind the messy hair, he looked at everyone who passed by.

If they are lucky enough to meet such a young wizard who has gone astray, it will be a rare and beautiful thing for them.

In the eyes of many wizards who pursue black magic, young wizards are very delicious food.

Of course, it would be a bit wasteful to eat the truth directly. In fact, wizards themselves are one of the materials they use for black magic experiments, just like some magical animals.

Although the Ministry of Magic knew that this was a gathering place for dark wizards, it was unable to clean up Knockturn Alley.

Not only because many pure-blood families and even senior officials of the Ministry of Magic are secretly colluding with these dark wizards, but more importantly, the existence of Knockturn Alley itself is equivalent to providing a gathering place for dark wizards.

It's like sorting garbage. If the garbage in the magic world is not concentrated here but scattered everywhere, it will only cause greater chaos.

Karkaroff wrapped himself in a large robe, and looked at the homeless men with some disgust. His steps were very cautious, looking very disgusted, for fear of accidentally stepping on some dirty things.

After not being in the UK for so long, Knockturn Alley still stinks as usual.What made him even more unbearable was the unscrupulous sizing up of those dirty and humble wizards who were as humble as mud, as if they regarded him as prey.

Despicable thing!
He ignored those gazes, and walked slowly towards a potion shop according to his memory.

Pushing open the door, suddenly a disgusting smell of medicine hits the face.

The inside of the shop was very dark, and the shelves were densely packed with low-end potions. In fact, many of them were failures, otherwise they wouldn't have such an unpleasant smell.

When doing business here, the shopkeeper dare not show the real guy on the bright side, not to mention, those who come to buy potions almost want contraband.

Karkaroff didn't even look at the shelves, and walked straight to the counter.

Behind the counter was a crooked witch with gray and thinning hair, and her entire face seemed to have been splashed with acid.

"What do you want?"

The witch raised her sagging eyelids, as if she had a bong stuck in her throat.

"Compound potions," Karkaroff said in a low voice.

"Ninety Galleons, pay a deposit of twenty Galleons first, and come back to pick it up in a month." The witch said without thinking.

Ninety galleons is not cheap, but in fact, the ingredients of the compound potion need a lot of money, not to mention that not many people can actually make this kind of complicated potion.

"I want it now, and the time limit must be more than three hours!" Karkaroff is no rookie.

He knew that in Knockturn Alley, it was a common thing to shoddy. The effect of the compound medicine was different according to the level, and the effect could be between 10 minutes and [-] hours.If you don't know how to do it, you may buy an inferior product that can only take effect for more than ten minutes.

At that time, if you come to find an explanation, no one will recognize it.

Hearing what Karkaroff said, the witch behind the counter glanced at him again, but she didn't say much, but responded coldly:
"That's another price. Ask for it now, it's not cheap."

It is very difficult to refine the compound medicine, and it is not so easy to store it. Generally speaking, it will be quite expensive if you want to buy it in stock.But in Knockturn Alley, the price will at least double.

"——Five hundred gold Galleons!"

Five hundred gold Galleons?
Karkaroff almost stopped breathing.

The grand prize of the Daily Prophet is only [-] Galleons, you dare to buy me [-] for a small bottle of potion, are you a black shop?

Well, it is actually a black shop.

Although Karkaroff was annoyed, he was not out of temper.In fact, although five hundred gold Galleons was a lot, it was only a small amount of money to him.

In fact, the "big prize" of the nature of the Daily Prophet is only ten thousand yuan in reality, and the Weasley family almost spent all of it on a trip.

Karkaroff is now the headmaster, but he has been greedy for ink at the Scandinavian Ministry of Magic.

In order not to delay the master's plan, he took out a bag of Galleons and threw it on the counter without hesitation.

"Hurry up and get the goods, if the color is not right—" He sneered and picked up the wand, threatening without concealing it.

But the witch just picked up the bag of Galleons and counted them.Karkaroff's position is still not enough to scare people. He is doing business in Knockturn Alley, and there are many chances of being pointed at the head with a wand.

After confirming that the number of Galleons was correct and that they were all genuine, she grinned.He walked in with his feet on the slope, and after a while, he took out a bottle of medicine.

"The compound potion is effective for four hours, and it only needs to be added to the body tissues of the transformation target, such as toenails, hehehe." The witch said deliberately disgusted.

Karkaroff didn't speak, just picked up the potion and checked it pretendingly.

In fact, his level of potion is not very good, and it is Voldemort who is really checking the quality of the potion—in the sleeve of Karkaroff's hand that picked up the potion, a black snake with a gap on the top of the head is probing. Head out.

'Only works for about three hours, but it's enough. '

Voldemort's voice rang directly inside Karkaroff's head.After saying this sentence, Voldemort retracted his head and continued to hide.

After confirming the effectiveness of the potion, Karkaroff didn't intend to pursue the four-hour time limit that the other party said, so he put the potion away and turned away.

'Karkaroff, you have a tail following you—'

Suddenly, Voldemort's voice sounded again.

"Please rest assured my master, I have found them." Karkaroff naturally found the dirty bugs hanging behind his back.He can be the principal of Durmstrang, so naturally he cannot be a parallel importer.

"Dare to hit us with ideas, I will deal with them all!"

'Very well, I almost forgot, you're not the same piece of shit as Quirrell.Get rid of them quickly and get Harry Potter's blood, I can't wait to be resurrected! '
