Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Probably Edmund didn't want to hide himself at all, so his expression changed very obviously.All these changes fell into Mesa's eyes, and he could clearly feel Edmund's dissatisfaction at this moment.

If there was no better way, Mesa would not want to go deep into the dangerous Knockturn Alley to seek a deal with the dark wizard.

In Mesa's long-term plans, he needed a wand that had never seen the light of day, something that could be used to accomplish something shady.Even if this wand accidentally falls into someone else's hands one day, you will not be able to find yourself easily through this wand.

If it was just for a magic wand, Mesa could go to Ollivander, so why bother looking far away?

This year, Mesa not only had a scholarship from Hogwarts, but also had Cassiopeia's private sponsorship. He could still afford a high-quality wand produced by Ollivander.

Even if you don't go to Ollivander, you can go to other wandmakers.Ollivander was the best wandmaster, but he was not the only wandmaker in Britain.

The same goes for Mundungus Fletcher who was struck by the Oblivion Curse, and the old witch who was knocked unconscious by the Stunning Curse. Mesa did not choose to take away their wands.

To put it bluntly, the wand that Mesa wanted neither belonged to Mesa Black nor existed in the eyes of others.

If it weren't for the fact that wandology is a profound knowledge that takes a long time to learn, Mesa wouldn't have come to Emond.Wouldn't it be nice to study under Ollivander directly? You can also master one more skill.

Only Mesa himself knew about the wand he made privately, and even the middleman Hope Edmund was left behind.

Although this method sounds good, Mesa really doesn't have time to spend on wandology. He has many other things to do.What's more, even if Mesa is willing to learn how to make a wand, it's still unclear whether Ollivander is willing to teach him.

Looking at Edmund's gloomy face, Mesa secretly adjusted her posture to prepare for the moment of separation.If you can't reach an agreement, run away and think of other solutions.

Mesa said slowly: "Mr. Edmund, I think you must understand what I mean. Apart from Mr. Edmond, I can't think of anyone else who can do this."

A small compliment could not save Edmund's bad expression.

Hope Edmund originally thought that even if the cauldron was not stolen or snatched, or was not a contraband prohibited from trading by the Ministry of Magic, it would still be a good business.

As a result, the content of the business was just a magic wand, which broke Edmund's lowest psychological expectations.Now Edmund really looks down on such a pitiful petty profiteer.

"A magic wand? You came to me for a magic wand. This is a very bad decision. It is a waste of our mutual time." Edmund said coldly. He lost interest in the business, and also lost his interest in May. Sa's patience.

Edmund continued: "How about I give you a wand produced by Ollivander for free?"

After he finished speaking, several wizards behind him also laughed.Probably due to the sense of loss after waking up from the dream, Edmund's attitude towards Mesa plummeted and hit rock bottom.

For a moment, Hope Edmund even had a vision.

He imagined that through this business, he would get to know a big shot and get the support he dreamed of.Then, he would move into the shops on both sides of the street and transform from a street vendor into a real Knockturn Alley merchant.

But the cruel reality shattered Edmund's dream, making him realize that he was still standing in the dark doorway, not next to the counter filled with merchandise; the person chatting and laughing with him was not a big shot, but Mao Zedong. There are no students who are all grown up.

"I really want to take your ridicule as a compliment to me, Mr. Emond," Mesa said, "and then continue the conversation between us, but unexpectedly... it's a bit difficult."

Although he said this, Mesa was not really angry.

Although Edmund is not a big businessman with great wealth, it is normal for him, as the leader of Knockturn Alley, to look down on such fly legs.

Mesa wants to negotiate a big deal and smuggle a fire dragon or something, but he also needs to be able to catch the fire dragon!

"Haha, I know what you want to do." Hope Edmund tilted his head at Mesa, "You want an illegal wand, and then use it to do something illegal, right?"

Mesa's intentions are not difficult to guess. Edmund has seen many people with such thoughts.Because Edmund once resold illegal wands.

During the period just after the downfall of the You-Know-Who, this wand was popular on the black market in Knockturn Alley for a while.

Compared to Ollivander's well-made wands, they were like fire sticks for casting spells.There's no danger of wands backfiring, but don't expect them to perform well.

The only advantage of these illegally circulated wands is their versatility.As long as the magic power is enough to activate it, the spell can be cast, and the effect varies from person to person.

If a well-made wand is compared to a wizard's closest companion, these fire sticks that can cast spells are the weapons of the wizard, used to kill people and steal goods.

When the Ministry of Magic arrests certain dark wizards, the detection of wands is one of the important evidences for conviction.If the three unforgivable curses appear in the flashback curse, congratulations on receiving the Azkaban Lifetime Achievement Award.

Mesa smiled, not getting angry because the other party guessed his intentions.This kind of thing can't be hidden from a veteran like Hope Edmund.

"Mr. Edmund, you should know." Mesa said with a smile, "The ways to get rich are all written in the various bills issued by the Ministry of Magic. I can't pray that I will win the "Daily Prophet" Grand prize, right?”

Mesa readily admitted it, but he was put off by his coyness.Mesa wouldn't have had to look for another wand if he didn't have other plans in mind.

On the streets of Knockturn Alley, Mesa and Hope Edmund stood opposite each other, with Edmund's men standing behind him.There are only a few of them here. If any information is revealed in today's conversation, the evil spirit will be born among these people.

"I know this business is difficult to satisfy Mr. Edmund, but please allow me to show my sincerity." Mesa said.

Hope Edmund was noncommittal. This was the end of his patience.Out of sight of Mesa, Edmund waved his hands to his men and gave his orders.

Mesa was not aware of this at all, but he never lowered his guard.Being in Knockturn Alley, a place that eats people without spitting out their bones, if you are not careful and vigilant, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of it all.

"I hope to establish a friendship with Mr. Edmund through this small business." Mesa said while paying attention to the other person, "Soon, I will have some potions that need to be sold, and at the same time, there will be some that are not counted. Common materials.”

Mesa can't get the magic potion now, but she will have it when she returns to school.Whether it was the forbidden book area or the manuscripts in the spirit skin space, they all contained content about potions. Mesa wanted to try to learn how to make them after school started.

Learning to make potions requires high costs. If you sell the finished product, you can just repay the money and reduce the pressure on Mesa's wallet.

And those uncommon materials also need to be returned to school.Mesa plans to explore the Forbidden Forest in the new school year. Many students see the dark forest as a forbidden place, but Mesa sees it as a treasure trove.

According to "Hogwarts: A School History" and manuscripts left by Slytherin's predecessors, although the Forbidden Forest is full of dangers, it also accumulates countless "wealth".

Instead of breaking the trophy, Hope Edmond is considering the possibility of collaboration.Edmund didn't know what a bad check was, but Mesa's red mouth and white teeth made it difficult to convince people immediately.

It seems that the young Mesa still lacks the aura of a king and can't make people bow down and bow down with just a shake of the tiger's body.

"I think you should know the consequences of deceiving Hope Emond." Emond threatened. He had no way of knowing whether Mesa was telling a lie unless he was tortured.

"It's very clear, because we are half the same kind of people," Mesa said with a smile. He didn't care about Emond's threat and even found it very funny.

Hope Edmund made the final decision. He said: "In three days, I will wait for you at the entrance of Knockturn Alley."
