“Christine, say it… How do you and Charles think about opening a store in this place? Isn’t it safe?”

There are still a lot of customers in the store, Marx and Tonks have been waiting for Charles to return, they have to talk to Christine for a while.

“Aiya !Tonks, I told you… In fact, the behind-the-scenes Boss of this store is sitting next to you!” Christine waved her hand with a refreshing smile on her face, looking and at Hogwarts. It’s no different.

“Hey? Marx is Boss?”

Tonks didn’t know that he was surprised for the first time. Since she had just stepped out of the door, she felt that she had been frightened and flustered for the accident.

“Yes! Tonks, you should know too… You see, my and Charles’s family are not too thick. Where can I afford a potion store?” Kristen spread his hand. “Don’t look at this store.” How big is it, you know, the black market is a lot of money! What’s more, it takes a lot of money to buy goods…”

Christine screamed at the checkout counter, and Charles, who was in front of the customer, stole her attention from time to time, and occasionally showed a gratitude to Marx.

Speaking of it, the two of them actually spent a lot of time with Marx. Even if they are Hufflepuff, they have even been in the Quidditch team, and there is not much time to get in touch with Marx.

Looking back, you can see that Marx spends most of his time on learning and research.

However, at the bonfire party that gave birth to graduates, when they had a chance to talk to Marx about opening a store, they didn’t expect Marx to really be in the heart.

This store is not just a simple way to give them a future direction with a lot of money.

If they have to say something, their poor couple can go to marriage so soon, and the economic support that this store brings to them is indispensable.

In this pair of future couples who came out of the Hufflepuff house, Marx was realized in a practical way. The phrase “We are all Hogwarts” at the bonfire party.

And this happy story of Christine and Charles, I am afraid it will be one of the many embarrassing births of every graduate student.

Even though Marx has not continued to host the event, his name, as the pioneer of the event, has been engraved on the banner of each farewell party.

“A lot of things, maybe the purpose behind it is not pure, even the process is full of dirt, but as long as the final result is good, then what is the relationship?”

In the middle of the conversation, Marx smiled at the faint warmth of the store with a smile, and thought in his heart.

“…So, is the situation in the black market actually worse than the outside?”

After a little chat with the three, Marx got some pretty valuable information from Christine’s mouth.

This is also true. If you want to know about potion-related news, it is a good idea to ask the operators of potion shop directly.

“Yes, as far as I know, there are already more than a dozen wizards in the black market suddenly going crazy…” Christine nodded. “But I think you know that the crazy wizard is no big deal. Because you can’t use the spell!”

“…So, although there were a few minor messes, it was quickly solved.”

Marx was nodded, and then asked: “I have already identified the reasons why the wizard went crazy – most of it is because of taking some kind of potion, what clues do you have here?”

“Well…at least the suppliers in our store have no problem… ah!” Christine said, suddenly paused, seeming to recall something.

“What’s wrong? Do you think of anything suspicious?” Tonks couldn’t help but ask.

“…I remember… probably three or four days ago! There was a spirited guy passing by the store and knocking over the kanban I was standing outside…” Christine recalled. “At the time I thought it was estimated to be drunk… You know, this is quite common.”

She is paused and emphasizes: “But now I want to come, the state seems to be like the madman wizard when it is not mad.”

“Is there any problem with that guy?”

“I watched him swaying forward and whispering something in his mouth… um…” Christine thought about it carefully, and then she nodded. “Yes, he said, ‘Goddess , my Goddess, no one can touch ‘… well, probably something similar…”

“‘Goddess’? ‘No one can touch’?” Marx repeated these words and wondered in confusion.

“… ah, in fact, I am not sure, maybe it is just a drunk guy?” Christine thought about it, and finally wondered shrugged.

“I know it is probably… I don’t know if I can help you…”

“No, although I don’t understand it for a while, I know that it is a good harvest.” Marx came back to his senses, and then smiled and waved.

After that, the trio continued to talk for a while, and Marx left with Tonks.

“Marx, I didn’t expect you to always be busy with yourself, actually doing such a good thing!”

On the side of the road, Tonks followed Marx and said casually.

“Well, my student is a student. I can help you with a hand… Anyway, it is a mutually beneficial thing. I just missed someone. I am not worried about finding someone else!” Marx said with a smile.

“Hey!” Tonks glanced at him and followed laughed. “But really, you can get clues so soon, it seems that our luck is not bad…”

“Yeah, I didn’t think of it.” Marx gave a little nodded. “In fact, I didn’t intend to ask anything from Christine. After all, they didn’t have a long time to come to the black market.”

“What are you doing?” Tonks was surprised.

“Take you the big – Senior Sister, go see the Junior junior sister?” Marx said profoundly, “How, was it a face to the little couple?”

“Oh, I made a vow – I won’t get married before I become a real Auror!” Tonks held his chin and looked proud.

“In short, inquire about intelligence or find the most professional path,” Marx paused. “The next place to go is our real destination tonight.”

Then, Tonks followed Marx again and again, and finally came to a sparsely populated old square.

In the middle of this small square, there is a fountain pool that has already dried up, and in the pool, there is a half-shaped statue of the wizard.

As for the stone-carved seats in this small square all around, most of them can no longer sit.

But the most interesting thing about this old square is the strange trees that are everywhere. The dry and dark branches are windless, and they are waving, almost covering the entire square.

What makes people feel more uncomfortable is that the trees are emitting a whisper of erect erectism. How to see it is a place that should not come.

“This is really ominous…” Tonks hesitated. “Don’t you say…we want to go inside?”

“Yeah, the entrance is in the pool of the fountain.” Marx screamed. “Come with me, don’t care about those Siberian ghosts, just that’s all used to scare people.”

“In your mouth, the ghost 嚎 wood is just ‘scare people’?” Tonks held his shoulders and wrinkled his face and emphasized the tone. “How do I remember the book saying that the ghost wood will What is the soul of the creature?”

“Because the method of dealing with ghost wood is too simple, it can only be ‘scare people’.” Marx shrugged, indicating that she can follow her own.

However, when the two men approached the strange trees that the branches were waving, the original whisper suddenly became high and extremely harsh.

“Remember? The book says “Siberian ghost wood is especially fond of cold”.” Marx pulled out wand and waved forward. “The authors did not continue to explain that they would encounter cold.” What happened…”

Just as he wand a wave, a simple frozen curse fell to the front of the ghost wood. Almost for a moment, the ghost scorpion screamed cheerfully, but the original dancing branch fell quietly.

“In fact, you can’t blame the author, because the natural growth of the ghost wood is concentrated in the north of Siberia, the closest to the Arctic Ocean… The environment is very cold, how can the author know that when the ghost wood is transplanted to the warmth? What would it look like when it was?”

“So to say… The reason why it was so harsh was that it was because it was afraid of heat?” Tonks couldn’t help but grin.

“You ask it!” Marx rolled his eyes. “I am not a scorpion, I know what they mean by wail like ghosts and howl like wolves?”

Under the curse of each and everyone, the ghost trees that they passed through hang down those branches. And as long as they don’t touch the scorpion, they are a completely harmless plant.

Of course, at best it looks terrifying a bit.

After a while, the two came to the fountain pool in the middle of the square.

In fact, you can see here, the dry pool is full of dirt underneath, it looks very dirty. And part of the collapse of the statue of the wizard collapsed into the pool, and the broken stone fragments almost scattered a pool.

Marx pointed wand at the head of the statue at the bottom of the pool and gently swung it a bit.

The next moment, the eyes of the stone statue’s head were suddenly filled with gray rays of light.

“Member code, ‘Silver Eagle 991’,” he whispered.
