Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 711 Passwords and Belongings

Russia, Saint Petersburg.

In the early morning, the weather was as cold as ever, but today's weather looks pretty good.

After Ivanovic’s father and daughter simply ate a few bacon sandwiches, and a slightly fried frying egg on the edge, they hurriedly put on their coats and prepared to follow the instructions on the ground of the note for help.

The Destiny Group Potato Shop in the northwest corner of the city is not hard to find.

Although Ivanovic’s father and daughter had been up very early, when they arrived here, there was already a long queue outside the store, and people looked forward to the closed door not far away and waited The store opens at nine o'clock.

No one has seen the real owner of this shop, it is like its name, and it has appeared silently in the important cities of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and other countries like the miracle of the gods-all the registration procedures, The acquisition record and registered trademark were completed half a year ago, and there was no violation of the law.

As a large multinational group from Austria, Destiny Group's business scope is almost pitiful.

No matter in the Destiny Group Potato Shop in any city, there are always only potatoes on the shelves, and the ruble code that occasionally floats up and down a little bit. Except for this, almost nothing else has appeared.

In the beginning, most of the cashiers were middle-aged and elderly people who would be distracted from time to time.

It's just that compared to the bank managers in Citibank's suits and suits and wearing Phnom Penh glasses, these seniors are obviously much more powerful in calculating the price of potatoes, the amount of change, and the different currency exchange rates.

Of course, this is not so surprising.

After all, as time goes by, people gradually find that most of the work of the "cashman" in the Destiny Group Potato Shop is either at a disbanded research institute or a college that is undergoing large-scale layoffs. .

As for the source of potatoes in the shop, the argument will become more confusing.

Some people said eloquently that they were all potatoes grown from Siberian permafrost. Others said that they were foreign varieties shipped from some private large farms in Austria. Some even said that these were actually from the former. The grain reserves secretly stolen from the Soviet secret grain preparation base...

But in any case, this medium-sized store, which has just been established less than half a year, has become a more important place for the lower and middle-class citizens living in St. Petersburg than the Peter and Paul Cathedral in the city center.

Because only in this place can the rubles in their hands be called currency, not colorful waste paper.

The mayor of St. Petersburg even specially arranged a team of police to maintain law and order in this neighborhood, so as to avoid some bad situations that may lead to the departure of this [Destiny Group Potato Shop]-It is said that similar things have happened in Kiev, and the local patrol police The reason for the inspection is to forcibly take over the store, and collect high security management fines.

The most direct impact is that the shop directly announced the next day's indefinite closure.

Until now, if the citizens of Kiev did not want to go to the store to buy expensive potatoes of $12 and one kilogram, they had to get up early every morning at four or five in the morning and drive to the Destiny Group Potato Shop in a small town dozens of kilometers away to buy potatoes.

In places that ordinary citizens cannot see, many banking institutions and large food and light industry import companies from Austria, Britain, the United States, France, and Germany have invariably increased various investments in Ukraine, especially in the Kiev region. , Import and export, military-industrial cooperation and other audit standards.

In sharing the huge dividends left by the former Soviet Union, all capital interests are common.

Gu Ling Pavilion and Destiny Group only need to push a little behind, giving a little impeccable reason, immediately a large number of vultures swarmed together, squeezing more benefits from the crumbling Ukrainian government.

All in all, today's [Destiny Group] is as important in the eyes of the St. Petersburg government as the well-known foreign large groups such as [Citigroup] [Group], which is located in the city's most prosperous commercial street.

Compared with the bankers who look noble and elegant, the Destiny Group, which is dedicated to operating cheap potatoes and is willing to hire local citizens, obviously has more than a word of mouth and mystery among the citizens of St. Petersburg.

It's just that Ivanovich hasn't been here before.

Although he heard a lot about the magical Destiny Group from the surrounding Muggles, he never associated such a basic Muggle food retail point with magic before receiving the note. together.

As a sorcerer, he has not yet fallen into the dilemma of having to queue to buy cheap potatoes.

Ivanovic looked around the streets. This is just a normal long street. The streets are lined up with ordinary Muggles. No matter where you look, it is not possible here. As a meeting place for wizards.

"Hey, sir! Please line up behind, thank you!"

Just when Ivanovic was going to get closer and take a closer look at this strange shop, two policemen hovering on the street suddenly came over, just stopped in front of the man, and pointed not far away Side by side team.

This group of Muggle guards is really nosy.

Ivanovic frowned, subconsciously reached out and touched it in his pocket, thinking about whether or not to take advantage of Irina's inattentive release of a confusion spell through the blockade, her face suddenly changed suddenly.

I saw that the two guards took off the truncheon at the waist faster than him and pointed at him in a very familiar posture.

From the perspective of Ivanovic, he can clearly see a wooden wand inlaid in the groove from the center of the brown wooden baton, and from the reaction speed of these two guards, most of them are Outstanding Auror just after graduation.

"Sir, please line up at the end, thank you-your talent is not used to cut in line..."

The slightly younger "witcher guard" nodded his chin towards the team not far away, and said with a blank expression, a glimpse of contempt and pity flashing in his eyes-for this kind of plan to come to the muddy water to fish with a little crappy magic The wizard, although they haven't encountered much since these days, it is definitely not the first time.

Although the existence of magic gives wizards a lot of convenience in life, it is not omnipotent.

In fact, not all wizards understand or are willing to use magic to grow crops and complete the self-sufficiency of daily life. For many more crappy wizards, they are more inclined to go from the surrounding Muggle neighbors’ borrow".

Ivanovic frowned, subconsciously pulling her daughter behind him, Shen Sheng said.

"Wait, we are not here to buy potatoes!"

"Sorry, no matter what you are doing, please queue up behind the line. This is the rule."

The young guard shrugged unmoved, said quietly, and again pointed and lengthened the team.

As the three disputed, many people who had waited in line to buy potatoes for the first time looked over curiously, and a few more guards on patrol also noticed the situation here.

"You guys! Are you really going to let go?"

Ivanovich froze a little, an angry look appeared on his face.

There is no doubt that these two wizards disguised as guards mostly regarded him as the kind of crappy wizard with only weak mana, or the kind of marginal man who is close to a dumb gun-it is simply to treat him like those Muggles. ...

More importantly, it made him lose his father's face in front of Irina.

However, before Ivanovic reorganized the wording, there was a clear voice in his ear.

"Password, we have a password!"

Irina suddenly got out from behind him, looked up at the two wizards, and said generously.

"[IchliebeDich] We are here for help. Someone told us that as long as we say this password here, we can get help from Hogwarts-we are in trouble."

"The password is fine, but... what about the token that proves your identity?"

The two wizard guards exchanged glances. The older wizard frowned and took a work notebook out of his pocket to take a closer look. He looked at the team of wizards and daughters in front of him with confusion. Some more.

"The token? What token?" Mr. Ivanovic asked frowningly.

"Every foreign special enrolled student does appoint a leader~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But at the same time you should also have a letter of introduction or some other magic item, we will know who to notify after activation To be responsible."

"But we only received one note... I don't know..."

Irina was stunned for a moment, and anxiously took out the small note from her pocket and was about to hand it out.

At this moment, a small hairy head came out of the girl's neckline and made a fierce cry.

Gu ha ha ha ha-

"Ok?"

"Ok??!"

The faces of the two wizard guards changed.

this is!
