Chapter 171 Disappearing Cabinet
There was nothing more outrageous than disturbing a lady's sleep, but of course Dumbledore had his own methods.
He asked Hagrid to go.
Principal Maxim did not expect that the matter was so serious. She thought that this group of British wizards had gone crazy again. In view of the delicate relationship between the two countries, she only thought that these people were having a celebration at the time, so she cursed and went to sleep again. .
There were seven or eight professors who came with her. They all joined hands and soon the entire hot spring building was lifted from the ground and launched into the sky until it was invisible to the naked eye.
Then Ma En's parchment was snatched away.
The wizards inside had their wands destroyed by Ma En, and they were noisily fighting each other with their fists raised.
Ma En looked at the interior of the new prison with some emotion: "I have to say that I had the foresight to build this place like this... The way these guys looked after they were so angry was really lively."
"Should we separate them? Make them into single rooms, it's too ugly." Professor McGonagall frowned and said, it may be an occupational disease caused by years of deanship. She hated this kind of lack of order.
Snape expressed opposition to this: "I think it's good. We don't punish them because of our kindness. It's better to let them punish themselves."
Several professors from Beauxbatons had left after helping. Hagrid was also taken away by Ms. Maxim. While the remaining people were chatting, Marne handed over Filch, who was patrolling around. Found it.
Due to Jasmine's employment, Filch's authority was limited to the evening hours. Perhaps because he was afraid of losing his job, he would wander around the campus all night, but he no longer had to be woken up alone.
Dumbledore briefly talked to him, and he agreed on the spot, and was excited to go back and pack up his long-retired torture instruments for these guys to use.
The only remaining question now was how he got up, and how he got back down again. Filch was a squib and couldn't even ride a broom.
Everyone discussed for a while, and Ma En suddenly remembered something and looked at Mag: "Professor, is my big flying basin still there?"
Mag was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses: "That colorful basin? It's floating outside my office window. You mean..."
"That wooden basin has automatic up and down and floating functions. Let's make some improvements to it and add a handle so that old Filch can also control it. That's all."
Mag nodded, handed the keys to the girls who had nothing to do, and took the basin back not long after.
Filch also packed up some of the equipment and prepared to take it over first. He stood in the basin and slowly rose up like a victorious general.
"Okay, there's one last thing to do."
After Ma En watched the colorful pot go up to the sky, he took down the disappearing cabinet that he had thrown in the sky and said, "I have to go and bring back another disappearing cabinet."
Several people present nodded together, this thing is indeed a hidden danger.
Calling Patrick, putting it on his arm, Marn dove into the disappearing cabinet.
When he reappeared, he was already in a store. The cabinet door was closed tightly. The few people responsible for responding outside had obviously not noticed the problem yet and were chatting with Bojin Bock.
"Good evening, gentlemen." Ma En came out and greeted them.
Several responders didn't react yet, but Bock did. He had seen the portrait of this little wizard before.
"Mr. Langley... good evening... it seems they failed."
Several other people quickly drew out their wands and pointed them at Ma En. The tip of the wand had a little fluorescence and looked dangerous.
"I advise you not to do that," Bock said with the greasiest voice Ma En had ever heard. "You don't want to live anymore, but I still want to live a few more days."
Marn watched with interest as he pressed the wands of the group one by one: "Mr. Bock, you look very smart."
"I am a shopkeeper after all, so I still have some good eyesight."
"But what you're doing doesn't seem that smart, so why are you helping them?"
"I am a shopkeeper after all, and I still have to make money..."
Ma En nodded clearly: "How much did they give you?"
"Fifty galleons each."
"a lot of."
"Yeah, they got so many people in, and it took me a month to earn this... I originally planned to smash this cabinet when the first person escaped."
Ma En agreed with Borgin Bock's statement. As a businessman, money comes second, only behind life. Even when you have enough money, you have to put your life aside.
He casually tied up a few unlucky guys with match ropes, and then said: "Mr. Bock, guess what the real purpose of my coming is."
"You are welcome." He stepped aside and pointed at the disappearing cabinet.
"I changed my mind." Ma En said suddenly after being silent for a while.
"Looks like I'm here for business."
"You are not afraid of death?"
"Of course I'm afraid, but I don't think you would just kill someone who might be helpful to you in the future."
"You are really smart." Ma En praised.
Bock did some calculations, and then said: "I will only charge five galleons for every person who comes in."
"so cheap?"
"Of course, I still like to do long-term business without any risk."
"I'll give you ten galleons, but you must keep it a secret."
Ma En's fingertips condensed a small fireball, and gently tapped it into Borgin Bock's chest: "After all, you are a human being, and life is still very important."
His face looked a little ugly, but he still replied: "You are right, I am a human being first."
Marn smiled with satisfaction and let Patrick go back first, while he dragged the last wave of Borgin Burke's guests into the disappearing cabinet and returned to Hogwarts.
Asking old Filch to take a few unlucky guys to prison, Marn and a few people who were a little curious about why he didn't bring back another disappearing cabinet talked about what happened just now.
The next step is to transform the disappearing cabinet in my hand.
It's quite simple. First, let Esther drive herself on a flying carpet to where the prison is, put the disappearing cabinet upside down on the chimney originally used for exhaust in the prison, and attach a few disarming spells and wands to the chimney. A magic spell like a storage spell, that's it.
There are several small compartments under the chimney. The magic added in advance will accurately send each wizard who enters illegally into the compartment separately. After artificial identification, they will be placed in a group living area to avoid accidental injuries. Moreover, there are various kinds of entrances to the passage. The counter-spell is enough to counteract all kinds of magic.
He was not worried that someone would talk about chimney escape. Before this building took off, it had been raised by magic by the professors. A wizard without a wand would simply be dreaming if he wanted to climb to the center of the ceiling, which was dozens of meters above the ground. .
