Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

France, Strasbourg, on the Rhine.

The water surface under the night curtain reflected the star-like lights on the shore.

As in most French cities, most shops closed a few hours ago.

The romantic French never confuse work with personal time, but this does not mean that Strasbourg is sleeping. In fact, the nightlife of this "city by the river" has just begun, and there are no bars in the city. One exception is crowded with people enjoying life.

Not far from Kleberplatz, a bar decorated in a Bavarian style, with a dark crucible painted on the sign outside.

Under the crucible are three rows of pale golden floral shop names, written in English, French, and German.

【Broken Cauldron Tavern (037)-the first branch in Strasbourg】

Different from the old store on Charing Cross Street, this franchise store jointly funded by the Tianming Group and Gringotts is at the forefront of the times, whether it is decoration style, lighting, or even relief decoration. Passionate art: The colorful magic lights and the starry sky flow on the ceiling echo each other, the fairy bartender and two wizard bartenders greet the guests at the bar, and several foremen shuttle through the crowd to patrol the bar.

In the center of the dance floor hangs a silver acorn bound by ice and fog, which is like a jewel shimmering in colorful lights.

This cauldron tavern opened its branch in Strasbourg in less than half a week, and it quickly became the most popular wizard tavern in Strasbourg and even within a hundred miles, if it weren’t for Paris, Orleans, and Lyon. There are also branches, and the number of people here will skyrocket several times.

Ike Dubois didn't often go to the tavern to enjoy life before, not because he didn't like it, but mainly because he was poor.

However, some time ago, under the introduction of a friend, he found a relaxed odd job.

As the "Singing and Singing" camp took the lead in all kinds of newspapers and magazines, the battle for "flow" has been set off. Starting in the UK, various mainstream and non-mainstream magazines have gradually turned into a full-scale war from the original secret competition, and are at the forefront of news publications. , Exclusive news and information collection of all kinds of hot news have also gradually emerged from the original passive interviews, the new news supply and demand market of "informants broke the news" and "paid news".

Most of the established publications and magazines began to imitate the previous marketing strategy of "Singing and Singing", and began to compete for informants in their respective positions.

And Ike Dubois’s new job is an exclusive informant. At least for the French magical world, he is temporarily the first among the "gold paparazzi". Almost every editor-in-chief of magazines now knows that there is such a A top whistleblower with a keen sense of smell and a credible greedy for money.

Many wizards tried to surpass Ike Dubois, but the direction of most of them was obviously a little off.

Ike Dubois is not an active "paparazzi" on the front line, he is actually more similar to an "information broker": he will not wait for the best news in the sewers or garbage dumps like some wizards, because he has better quality A reliable source...

Slap--

Jin Jialong fell gently on the wooden bar, and moved to the fairy bartender with Ike Dubois' fingers.

"Rod, it's still the old rule. A glass of flame cocktail is not mixed without wine."

"Today's cocktail prices have risen, and twenty-nine gold gallons will be added."

The goblin bartender wiped the goblet in his hand, filled it with water with a snap of his fingers, pushed it in front of Ike Dubois, took the Jin Jialong on the table, and breathed, grinning. A mysterious smile appeared, "Only tonight. As for how much you can earn, it depends on your ability."

"Thirty Jin Jialong?" Ike Dubois was stunned for half a second, frowning involuntarily.

You know, according to the previous rules, a Jin Jialong is almost equivalent to the news of the secret mistress of a senior official of the Ministry of Magic.

So by analogy, what grade of news can 30 Jin Jialong buy?

This is completely beyond the imagination of Ike Dubois. It was the first time he encountered such expensive information. The first reaction in Ike's mind was that the goblin wanted to lie to him, whether it was Gringotts or working outside. The fairies, they can sell everything they can sell for Jin Jialong.

"Then, well, if there is only one Jin Jialong—"

Ike Dubois said hesitantly, and he said softly, considering it.

As an "old guest" of the Broken Cauldron Tavern, Ike Dubois has a lot of experience in bargaining.

"Not splitting, not just selling-the ‘information’ that this news exists is worth a gallon."

The fairy bartender grinned, revealing the sharp small fangs inside, and took the gold coin in his arms very naturally.

"For the sake of your credibility in the past, I can give you a little hint. This news is limited, time-limited, and graded. Ordinary wizards can spend three Jin Jialong to get some small news and 30 Jin Jialong. Long’s news depends on talents... If the kind of fool who gets the news bluffs and advertises everywhere, then the danger on my side is not small, you have ten seconds to think about it."

The goblin bartender indifferently continued to wipe the glass while gently counting.

"Ten, nine, eight--"

"Three Gallons!"

Ike Dubois gritted his teeth, took out two Jin Jialong from his pocket and handed them to the fairy bartender.

"Just tell me the'intelligence' of the three Jin Jialong."

"Oh? Don't you really consider the thirty one?"

The goblin bartender swiftly passed the table with pointed and long fingers, picked up the two Jin Jialong, and glanced meaningfully at the wizard in front of him.

"Whether the news is true or false, it is not something I should know-I don't have much ambitions, just make money. The 30 gold gallons are too dangerous." Ike Dubois shook high. The clear water in the foot cup said in the colorful lights.

"All right--"

The goblin bartender shrugged noncommittal and hooked his finger at Ike Dubois, motioning him to come closer.

"All the Aurors of the British Ministry of Magic have just passed by the French Ministry of Magic. They are preparing to expedition to the Armenian magical world to encircle the werewolves... Except for the British magical world, I heard that most of the European magical governments are involved. If you immediately Set off, there should be a chance to rush to the'encirclement and suppression scene' before they act-today is the night of the full moon, as a wizard, you should be able to guess something..."

A few minutes later, Ike Dubois hurriedly left from the Broken Cauldron Tavern.

This is big news. Nearly a hundred British Aurors left the hall of the French Ministry of Magic. This is already a blockbuster news, but compared to the content behind and the grand story that may be derived, surprise The expedition is just an appetizer.

On the other side, in the Broken Cauldron Tavern (037) ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ watched Ike Dubois leave in a hurry, the fairy bartender pulled out a note board from under the bar and sketched a few strokes.

It walked not far away near the wizard who was waving his wand to make magical drinks, and handed the board to the wizard.

"Dubois bought the special fire cocktail tonight. I originally wanted to sell him the more expensive one, but he refused because he thought it might be dangerous to him-you can try to come and see it later. Look, can you persuade him to do more part-time jobs..."

The sharp little teeth of the goblin flickered in the magic light, looking around the bustling tavern.

Between music, lights, and dance steps, some gossip is quietly spreading.

In the cities farther away, the night began to be restless and tense.

The true rumors will never have only one side, it must have a brilliant luster like a diamond facet.

Unlike those wizard officials who use false stories to weave traps, Elena has never bothered to rely on lies to achieve her goals.

The real light and shadow flicker in the night, like the silhouette of the sun reflected by moonlight on the ground.

Just as the editor-in-chief of the French "Magic Pravda" was awakened by a rapid knock on the door, Barnabas, the editor-in-chief of the "Daily Prophet", also fumbled for his wand to get up from the bed. At the same time, Cornelius Fudge had just counted the number of people in the lobby of the French Ministry of Magic, ready to go to the next place...
