Cardcaptor at Hogwarts

"What is that place? A recycling station?"

"It seems there is no such thing in the wizarding world, Bernard."

Adam stared at the sign for a while, and finally made out what the crooked words on it said.

"The Hog's Head?"

"That's the Hog's Head?"

Uther looked at Colon who exclaimed beside him and couldn't help but say:

"Didn't you grow up in Hogsmeade? Why don't you know the Hog's Head?"

"That's a bar! I've only been to the Three Broomsticks twice with Kelly, not to mention this..."

Colon looked at the Hog's Head, which was obviously dirtier than the Three Broomsticks, and his eyelids jumped:

"... a bar."

Then, Colon turned around and planned to leave:

"Let's go, there are sometimes a lot of weird people in places like this, so it's best not to get close."

"Oh?"

Hearing Colon's words, Bernard's eyes lit up:

"Weird people... a dirty bar... Isn't this a black market or illegal trading gathering place?"

"..."

Adam's eyelids twitched when he heard it, and he looked at Colon.

Why did you remind him...

Two minutes later, Bernard successfully persuaded everyone to go to the Hog's Head with him.

"I advise you not to hold your hopes too high."

Adam sighed and poured cold water on Bernard who was waiting in high spirits:

"The owner of the Hog's Head is Professor Dumbledore's brother. Even if someone conducts illegal transactions in private, it is unlikely to become a black market."

"Professor Dumbledore's brother?"

Uther glanced at Adam:

"Adam, who knows everything, you know this again?"

"Since you plan to open a shop in Hogsmeade Village, it is reasonable for me to do a good research on Hogsmeade Village in advance, right?"

Adam looked as if it was a matter of course.

Pushing open the door of the Hog's Head, Bernard's eyes dimmed a little after scanning the area.

The cups on the bar counter were covered with a layer of turbid oil, and there were several drunkards lying on the table in the corner. There was a pool of vomit on the ground that had not been cleaned up... All this showed that this place was indeed as Adam said, it was just an ordinary bar, and a very low-level one at that.

The only thing that made people's eyes brighten but also confused was the portrait on the wall of the bar. The melancholy girl did not match the style of this bar at all.

Adam looked at the portrait deeply, and when he saw a certain part, his pupils shrank, and then the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Get out!"

A loud voice sounded like thunder. Adam and his friends followed the voice and saw a tall, thin, gray-haired and bespectacled old man walking towards them.

"You little brats who are still studying at Hogwarts, this is not the place for you to come!"

Aberforth Dumbledore just took a look at their school uniforms and began to drive them away rudely.

The four people who didn't want to come here turned around and went out immediately. Bernard wanted to stay for a while to observe, but he was pushed out before he could say anything.

"Oh my god, is that old man related to Hagrid?"

Bernard bent his arm and pinched his biceps. Although he was not as talented as Eugene, he was still a bit muscular. Why was he pushed and shoved by a man over a hundred years old without any chance of fighting back?

"Don't think too much. You've seen it just now. There's nothing you want. Let's go."

Adam sighed and patted Bernard on the shoulder:

"If you really want to see something exciting, I'll recommend a place to you when you can beat Uther and me in duels."

"Huh? How does this have anything to do with me?"

"Aren't you in need of a sparring partner? Bernard's hobby is a bit dangerous. You can improve together."

Uther really learned a lot from Professor Flitwick. According to him, Professor Flitwick said he was very talented and could participate in the youth group of the duel competition before graduation to gain experience.

During the summer vacation, Uther was planning to find Adam as a sparring partner for actual combat, but he had no duel experience at all. Even if Adam didn't use the magic he learned from the Clow Cards, who could bear the fact that all the combat spells were silent and wandless?

As for forcing Adam to use a wand to perform the casting movements and recite the spells before casting?

Let's not talk about whether Adam can get used to it, Uther's face is not thick enough to that extent.

Looking at Bernard with a burning gaze, Uther nodded after a little thought.

This seems to be a good idea!

It just so happens that Cologne and Eugene are going to train Quidditch next, and Adam is going to be an assistant coach. They are missing three brothers who play together. They don't know what to do in their spare time except helping Adam set up a stall. Now they have something to do.

Bernard actually had some objections to this request at first. Let's not talk about whether he can beat Uther, but when he can beat Adam... Isn't it Adam who has the final say?

But after thinking carefully, Adam is not the kind of pedantic guy who says "It's not good to go to the black market so I won't let you go to the black market". He would only stop me because my strength is not enough to return safely from the black market.

After thinking about this, Bernard accepted this request. He didn't know the black market for wizards, but he knew the black market for Muggles. If you don't have enough strength to go to the black market, you will be sent to the door. Before that, you should hone yourself well.

Seeing that both of them accepted it, Adam was also very satisfied with it.

In fact, he has another purpose that he has not explained. That is, Uther learned dueling from Professor Flitwick. Adam is a little worried that his fighting style will be influenced by Professor Flitwick and become too... academic.

In simple terms, he may be too conventional and easily suffer when encountering unruly people. Uther's identity means that his opponents are not very rule-abiding.

Bernard is the kind of wilder person. The good news is that he is not afraid of encountering unruly people, because it is more likely that he is more unruly than the opponent. The bad news is that people can't help but worry that he will break the law when he fights, and report to Azkaban after the fight.

It is very troublesome to rescue someone from Azkaban. If Voldemort is not careful, he will come back to life and blow up the Ministry of Magic and Azkaban again. Adam feels tired just thinking about it.

Now these two people are practicing against each other, just running in with each other and learning from each other's strengths. It's perfect!

After that, the five of them wandered around Hogsmeade for a while, such as the famous attraction Zonko's Joke Shop in Hogsmeade.

"I used to think the toys in Zonko's Joke Shop were good, but now I see... they seem to be worse than Fred and George?"

Cologne's expression was a little disappointed, that was the expression after the beautiful memories of childhood were broken.

"Zonko is too old, and he has emptied his mind of ideas. In comparison, Fred and George are younger and more creative. It's normal for you to think so."

"Will they be like this when they are old?"

"...Maybe, I'm not sure."

Adam recalled that there was only one twin who loved to laugh and make trouble in the original story line, and Weasley's Magic Wheezes might not launch new products in a few years. It's hard to imagine how painful George would feel when he had to conceive prank props alone after Fred's death, and which one was more tormented by looking in the mirror.

After getting along with each other, Adam realized more deeply what kind of big knife this was. In the more than two years since he first met the twins, he never saw them separate, and they even went to the bathroom together.

Well... the twins can't die like before, but I can't eat the knife by myself, I have to find a way to send the knife out.

When he graduates, maybe I can write a set of "Harry Potter" to publish?

In that way, I can send out all the knives that I have eaten, but I always feel that if I do this, Professor Snape will come to my door...
