My name is Snape at Hogwarts

Chapter 10 Diagon Alley

Walking to the door of the Leaky Cauldron, and gently pushing the door open, the noise inside was not as noisy as expected, and there were not even a few voices talking.

Is there no one?Snape thought, and walked in.

Contrary to his expectations, it wasn't that there were no people inside. On the contrary, there were quite a few people, but there were basically few people talking, and they were all drinking with their heads down.

Snape noticed that their eyes were vaguely avoiding the hooded men at the bar.

They are... Snape had a vague guess about the identities of these hooded men in his heart, but there was nothing unusual on the surface, one thing more is worse than one thing less.

"Oh? Look, what did I find?" When Snape walked to the bar, a hooded man suddenly said, "A little guy who is alone! Did you come here by yourself?"

"Yes, sir." Snape replied calmly. He noticed that the man's face was not revealed. The skull-shaped mask on his face blocked his face very tightly, only his pair of eyes were exposed. Eye.

"Interesting kid." There was a hint of interest in the man's eyes, and a smile in his voice, "You don't seem to be afraid of me?"

"You're right, I'm not afraid!" Snape said calmly, "After all, I don't know what kind of conflict a child can have with a powerful wizard, nor an elephant with a powerful wizard." Ants care about it, don’t they?”

"Haha, that's very good, you're right!" The man laughed loudly, "It's been a long time since I've seen such an interesting kid! Maybe, in the future, you may become our partner!"

"Maybe, Merlin can't say for sure about the future, can't he?" Snape replied blankly.

"Interesting, you're really interesting!" the man said twice, and then asked, "If I'm not wrong, are you planning to go to Diagon Alley?"

"Obviously, isn't it? I don't think I'm old enough to go in and out of pubs," Snape replied.

"Well, little guy, you are very courageous and interesting!" The man tapped the beer in the glass with his wand, and saw that the beer turned into a mist and flew out of the glass, seeping around the man's mask. Go in, and then stand up, "It's a pleasure to meet such a little guy as you! Come on, I don't need old Tom today, I will show you the way!"

As he spoke, he walked straight to a small door on the wall of the bar alone.

Snape hesitated for a moment, then followed. He didn't think that this wizard would do anything to him, even though this kind of wizard was notorious in the entire British wizarding world.

That's right, this man was a Death Eater, meaning a believer who conquered death, and he was a subordinate of the famous second-generation Dark Lord Voldemort.

As for how Snape recognized it, it was obvious from the eyes of the other people in the bar, as well as their attire.

At this time, the British wizarding world was in the period of Voldemort's rule, and the Death Eaters naturally wouldn't hide it that much. After all, this was their "glory".

"See clearly, boy, I'll only say it once, remember it yourself!" The wizard pulled out his wand, and motioned Snape to look for himself, "Count three dollars up from here, and two dollars across, the wand Knock three times and you're done!"

As the man knocked, the bricks on the wall suddenly emitted a blinding white light, and then the wall rippled like water, then disappeared, and a bustling street appeared in front of the two of them. .

"Welcome, funny boy, welcome to Diagon Alley!" Although the wizard couldn't see the expression on his face, Snape felt that he must be smiling, "Next, it's up to you."

"Of course!" Snape nodded, "Thank you!"

"You don't need to thank me, I just think you are very interesting!" The man waved his hand, "If you go to Hogwarts in the future, maybe you can enter Slytherin, and my son must enter that college! Maybe, You can still be friends!"

"Maybe! Who knows about the future?" Snape couldn't deny it, "I'm not a prophetic Magus, I can't see my future!"

"Haha, maybe." The wizard waved his hand, turned around, and walked towards the bar.

Snape didn't care about him either, and walked around on his own.

Although Diagon Alley is called an "alley", it is actually not a small alley. It is more like a commercial street, with all kinds of shops on both sides, clothing stores, food stores, bookstores... .It really has everything.It's not for nothing that it's known as the busiest wizarding street in Britain.

However, Snape also noticed that there were quite a lot of people on the street, and there were also many customers in and out of the shops, but they all seemed to be in a hurry, basically no one wandered around like him.

Perhaps this is what it was like during Voldemort's reign.Snape seemed to have thought of it, and this point was vaguely mentioned in the original book. At this time, Diagon Alley was not the busiest time, and wizards were very insecure.

Thinking of this, Snape couldn't help but quicken his pace a lot, and walked straight to his goal, which he had already seen when he just entered Diagon Alley.

Ollivander's Wand Shop, the number one arms dealer in the British wizarding world.

I don't know if it's because the wizards regard dilapidation as a representative of a long history. Whether it's the Leaky Cauldron or the Ollivander Wand Shop in front of you, they all look dilapidated.Even Snape was a little worried that if he went in, the small dilapidated house would collapse.

He dared to say that in the entire Diagon Alley, there should not be any shop more dilapidated than the one in front of him.

On the mottled outer wall, there are actually a few mushrooms on the wall!A solitary magic wand was placed in the window with all the paint peeled off.Fortunately, there was no dust on the glass of the window, otherwise, Snape might really regard this place as a ruin.

There is a signboard hanging on the dilapidated but tightly closed wooden door, the gold on it has almost fallen off, and the words on it can still be seen clearly - Ollivander, made since 380 BC Fine wand.

Well, if it weren't for the reputation of the Ollivander family, it is estimated that such a small shop should have closed down a long time ago. At least now, Snape already felt that the place was full of unreliable looks.

I hope that this is not an empty name, and I hope that what is said in the original book is true.Thinking this way, Snape didn't hesitate any longer, stepped forward and opened the door.

"Oh, welcome, a new little wizard!" An old and mysterious voice reached Snape's ear from inside.

Following the sound, I saw an old man with silver hair and silver eyes sitting behind the bar looking at him. Although there was a smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes, only a deep look.

This should be the most famous contemporary wand maker, known as the head of the three major European wand makers - Garrick Ollivander!
