Hogwarts: Capturing Nagini at the Beginning

Chapter 7 Gringotts

"Sir, madam, please come with me!"

A goblin in a suit bowed, and then led the two of them into a tall marble hall.

Luo Bin lowered his eyes and quietly looked at his surroundings.

On both sides of the hall, there are about a hundred high counters like ancient pawn shops. Fairies in suits and leather shoes are standing on the high stools behind the high counters. Some are weighing magic coins with copper scales, and some are wearing singlets. The eyepieces carefully examined the gems, and some held quills to write and draw on the ledgers.

There are countless dark brown wooden doors in the hall, and many fairies in suits lead guests in and out. As for where these doors lead to, Luo Bin doesn't know.

"Well, Luo Bin, no one is doing business there, let's go there!"

After Ms. Mo Li finished speaking, she led Luo Bin to a high counter.

"Morning, I want to get some magic coins from Arthur Weasley's vault!"

"Ma'am, have you brought the key?"

"Bring it!"

After careful inspection, the goblin said, "There should be no problem. I'll find someone to take you to the underground vault, Peter!"

"Wait a minute, there is another one, the little guy next to me, also wants to withdraw some money!"

"Ma'am, you have to go in with Peter first, otherwise the counter won't be able to handle the next business."

"Robin, you."

"I can do it, don't worry, Ms. Molly!"

"OK then!"

After Ms. Molly followed the goblin named Pete, the goblin standing on the high stool asked: "Which vault is it? Have you brought the key?"

"Bringing, no, to, my father, Tessim Lestrange's vault!"

When the goblin saw the water-like dark lines on the key, his expression froze. Then when he heard the name 'Tesme Lestrange', his expression became more solemn!
  "Little guy, besides you, does Tesm have any other children? Adopted ones don't count!"

"Are you questioning his fidelity to the marriage?"

Luo Bin didn't know what was going on that made the goblin ask such a mindless question, but he knew that he had to strike first and stand on a high position!
  "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend, it was just routine. Excuse me, does Tesim have any other children besides you?"

Luo Bin lowered his voice and pretended to suppress his anger and said: "No, not one!"

The goblin adjusted his glasses that slid to the tip of his nose, straightened his clothes and hair, and said solemnly: "In that case, let's proceed to the next step of verification!"

As he spoke, the goblin inserted its long, thin little finger into the top hole of the key, and then turned the key while speaking in obscure Elvish language.

The key turned faster and faster, until only a round shadow was left in the sky.

Three minutes later, the goblin stopped chanting the spell and pulled his finger back. The key was still spinning at high speed, and it was rising while spinning.

When it rose about half a meter high, the key suddenly stopped rotating, and golden, cicada-like wings grew on both sides. The next second, the wings closed, and it wrapped itself into a ball?

Luo Bin raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw this scene.

In his mind, keys, wings, and balls all fit the three elements. Apart from the golden snitch used in Quidditch games, it was the silver key that the three little ones encountered when they broke into the space under the living board.

Clang!
  After the key made a clanging sound, it spread its wings, and a faint earthy gray halo surrounded it. Slowly, the halo became larger and larger, and the color became darker and darker.   Moreover, the keys are also changing!

The dark wave-like pattern separated from the key and was surging freely 0.2cm away from it.

As it surged, it transformed into earth-gray vines, coiling around the dead branches transformed from the key.

The halo dissipated, and the dead trees and vines that were tightly attached to each other fell onto the counter with a snap!

"This is."

A golden key turned into dead branches and vines in just a few minutes. Who wouldn't be heartbroken or shocked?
  The goblin ignored Luo Bin and said to himself: "There is still one step left. The last step!"

"What does the last step mean?"

The goblin still ignored Luo Bin. It pulled out a small box from under the counter. The box contained a needle as thick as a headphone wire. The tip of the needle was beveled and the inside was hollow!
  Luo Bin caught a glimpse of the look in the eyes of the goblin "nurse version of Rong", and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, "Hey, don't do this, I'm underage, and I'm still a prospective freshman at Hogwarts. My parents Zeng Zai. Damn it, are you serious?"

The goblin took the blood from Luo Bin's fingertips and dripped it onto the bottom of the dead branches and vines. Then, with eyes full of confusion and curiosity, he asked: "What does "nest" mean? I have lived for hundreds of years. I have read thousands of books, but I have never known which magic spell is 'nest'. Is it a new magic created by the great wizard?"

Damn it, that’s the quintessence of China. The upper part expresses surprise, the middle part expresses swearing, and the lower part expresses verb, which is equivalent to the Western world’s fuck and shift.

However, Luo Bin, who has always been known as the "Four Spirits", naturally will not tell the real meaning of "fuck" to the goblin who just got an injection.

"Oh, yes, that's right, 'f*ck' is a spell. It has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, hemostatic and sterilizing effects. Moreover, it can be cast successfully without the help of a magic wand. This is very popular in Cornwall! "

Luo Bin lied without blinking, and the deceived goblin believed his lie. It nodded its head in greeting, with an expression of having learned.

"The bottom of the dead tree branch has turned green?" Luo Bin looked at the counter and said in shock.

"Dead branches?! Didn't Tesmu tell you that the Lestrange family's inheritance is composed of the tree of life and the undead vine?"

"I never said that!"

"Tesme most likely thinks that you are too young to be responsible for restoring the glory of Lestrange. However, the fact that he passed on the objects that symbolize the family to you shows that he has recognized your identity as the heir in his heart."

"Okay, the verification is successful. Mr. Rozte, please lead Mr. Lestrange to the underground vault No. 714."

"No. 714? I remember that vault No. 714 has not been opened for more than half a century!"

A goblin about 1 meter tall, with gray hair, but extremely energetic, heard the sound and came over.

"No, put it away, don't lose it. Oh, by the way, let me remind you that the appearance of the Lestrange family's inheritance will change according to the wishes of the family owner/heir!"

With that said, the goblin handed the lush green branches and ivy into Luo Bin's hands.

"Come, follow me!"

Rozte rubbed his index finger and said.

"Ok!"

Rozte opened a door. Behind the door was a narrow and dark stone corridor. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

boom! boom! boom!
  The sudden burning torch on the stone wall instantly illuminated the stone corridor.
