The latest chapter in the Harry Potter Bastard novel

Back in the shop, Solim did not rush to loot. Instead, I walked around the entire store and destroyed the fireplace on the second floor so that no one would suddenly come here through the fireplace. On a cabinet on the first floor, Solim found an object, and through trial and observation, Solim determined that this was the item that identified his underage identity.

“It’s kind of interesting, but it’s very small and useless.” Solim threw his belongings into the box.

I have to say that there are still a lot of good things in the store “Magical Lavis”, of course, there is more garbage. Solim simply threw everything he saw into the box, fortunately Elrond gave Solim a box big enough, otherwise it would not have been able to hold so many things. Solim was ready to put everything away first, and then slowly screen them when he went back. The sooner this place of right and wrong leaves, the better, and no one knows if there will be any changes after staying for a long time.

Solim flicked his hand and used his wand for a long time and with high frequency, which made his hand muscles a little tired. But I finally moved everything in the store. Only then did Solim remember that there were still two corpses in the basement to dispose of. One was stabbed to death by his wand. He must at least cover up these traces, and the most convenient way is to burn them with a fire. However, Solim found a jar of corrosive potion in the storefront, and he planned to use it to destroy the corpse.

“Boom! It’s really dark, you can’t see anything. Solim drew his wand and used a fluorescent flash, illuminating the dimly lit basement.

Two bodies were lying on the ground in strange positions. Solim did not pay attention to the corpses on the ground, but looked at the basement.

The basement is not large, and Solim estimates that it is less than thirty pyeong. Three walls are filled with shelves, and one wall is preceded by a workbench. Solim didn’t look closely, and cleanly packed everything here and threw it into a box – except for the two corpses on the ground. Without any nonsense, Solim poured a whole jar of corrosive potions on the bodies of the two corpses. Having done this, Solim returned to the ground before being smoked to death by the smell of the corrosive potion.

Look at the empty room, look at the empty shelves. Solim sighed for a while, he was obviously ready to make an honest deal, who thought that he would end up like this. But this incident also reminded Solim: if this time is not a fluke, then it should be himself who is lying in the basement now.

Yes, Solim thinks he was able to get away this time, mainly by chance. If these two wizards hadn’t let their guard down after learning that they were underage wizards, they wouldn’t have had a chance to fight two adult wizards, especially in such a small place. Solim thought of the alchemy item that recognized his disguise, here, maybe there are other shops in the overturning alley, and it is better not to come to the overturning alley casually in the future.

Looking at the messy shop that he had turned over, Solim began to think about the whole thing and his own measures, wanting to see if there was anything missing. Solim was holding his chin to think about things, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a portrait hanging on the wall—but there was nothing in the portrait.

“Broken!” Solim suddenly realized something. One fell apart and immediately shattered the portrait. “It can only be burned… Hope it burns clean. Solim knew that it was a race against time and did not hesitate:

“Flames!”

Golden flames erupted from the “bone spur” in Solim’s right hand, setting the shop on fire in an instant. Solim maintained the spell as he retreated back.

“It’s on fire! It’s on fire! “The people who overturned the alley discovered the situation here.

Solim did not panic about this, he used a flame spell, the magic fire emitted by the flame spell will produce smoke when burning things, if it is a strong fire, unless it burns outside, no one will find it. The only thing Solim is worried about now is that it will not burn completely and not completely destroy some of the traces he left behind.

Less than five minutes after Solim slipped away, the fire of “Magical Lavis” was extinguished. Three black-robed wizards stood atop the still smoking ruins.

“Damn it! What the hell is going on! ”

“We came right away when we got the news, still one step late. If it weren’t for the remoteness of the place where the portrait was hanging, we should have known it in the first place. Lavis and his nephew are both dead, and the portrait sees them thrown into the basement. ”

“It doesn’t matter if these two wastes are dead! But what the Ritchie family wants is in this store, deliberately taking this hidden channel, just don’t want to be discovered, you say, did anyone leak the news? ”

“It’s unlikely, the goods just arrived today, if you really want to leak the news, it’s either the people of the Ritchie family or the three of us, think about it, how to explain to them.”

“The basement is here, hopefully their bodies will leave us some clues.”

“Who the hell did it? Lavis is not a weak hand, and the portrait says that both their uncle and nephew were killed in an instant. ”

“Let’s look at the corpse first and see if you can see something.”

When the three black-robed wizards looked at the pus on the ground and some fragments of clothes, they did not speak for a long time. This is still how quickly they put out the fire, otherwise after a while, even the pus will be gone.

“It’s hard to do now…”

After Solim came out of Overturned Alley, he found a no-man’s corner in Diagon Alley, drank a drop of shrinking potion, offset the effect of the aging agent, and Solim changed back to the appearance of a minor wizard. Putting down his hood, Solim even bought two cones at Florin’s cold drink shop before going back.

Seeing her brother return from outside, Silna said hello. She was now lying on her stomach on the bed, teasing her little snake, Telles, while looking at the first-grade textbook.

“Strawberry or banana, which do you want?” Solim asked as he took out the cone he had just bought at Florin’s cold drink shop.

“Strawberry’s.” Silna didn’t look up, just spread her hand and motioned for Solim to hand her the thing.

“Don’t get into bed.” Solim instructed casually.

“It’s okay, you can clean it up anyway.” Silna took a bite, “Besides, this bed is where you sleep.” ”

“…… I have something to do, and when I have something, I knock on the box. ”

Solim opened his box and couldn’t wait to enter. Standing on the stairs, looking at the mess below, Solim was a little speechless.

“I hope I don’t break too many things.”

The floor was littered with a large pile of things that Solim had thrown in, and Solim didn’t know how long it would take to put so many things in order, but now that it was a holiday, he had time.

Solim was about to sort out the broken and apparently foolish things first, and before Solim could finish the job, Silna poked her head out of the box and reminded him that it was time for dinner.

While Solim and Silna were eating on the first floor of the Leaky Cauldron Bar, they heard many people talking about the fire that had occurred in Overturned Alley this afternoon.

Solim pricked up his ears and began to pay attention to what these people were talking about.

As Solim expected, someone appeared there and was still looking around in the ruins. But when Solim heard that the people of the Ritchie family had also arrived at the scene of the incident, he knew that there was probably something remarkable in his box. He didn’t have time to look around the shop to know what he had taken from the Richie family. However, the things that can make a wizard family like the Ritchie family care are certainly not simple goods, and Solim decided to clean them up overnight tonight to see what good treasures there were. But to do that, there is still a problem that needs to be solved.

“Well, you can sleep in your room tonight, I have some things to do, and I want to use the box tonight.” Solim said to Silna.

“Didn’t you say okay? I sleep inside, you sleep outside. Silna put down her fork and pouted at Solim in dissatisfaction.

“Just tonight, I do have something to do.”

“Then you do your thing, I’ll sleep mine.”

Solim really didn’t want Silna to see the stolen goods in that place, and he couldn’t explain it then. After going out for a while in the afternoon, and returning with so many things, Silna is not a fool, on the contrary, she is still very smart, and she will definitely have doubts about Solim’s return in the afternoon, and then go out with the box.

Solim scratched his head, or would he go back to the room and give her a coma curse? Do you want to pour some life and death water into the water she drinks?
