Chapter 330 Mysterious Circus
If you look down from a high altitude, you will find the center of Paris, located at the Arc de Triomphe.
Taking the Arc de Triomphe as the starting point, Twelve Streets extend radially from here, with great momentum.
This wonderful design is similar to the longest city axis in the world in the imperial capital, and it is an aesthetic model of urban design!
And not far from the Star-shaped square where the Arc de Triomphe is located, it is also the entrance to the hidden place in Paris.
The Hidden Place is the most famous wizarding street in France, equivalent to Diagon Alley in London in terms of status.
At night, William and Hermione appear near the Star Square.
Both of them wore sunglasses and identical peaked caps, like ordinary couples who came to travel.
Pass through the square and come to a remote corner, where there is a magical bronze statue.
This is the entrance to the hideout.
With a vigilant glance around, William and Hermione entered the statue.
There are many wizards in the hiding place, a gorgeous fire dragon hovering in the sky, and finally exploded into gorgeous fireworks.
Suddenly there was a beeping sound from William's safety watch.
Hermione lowered her head and glanced, wondering, "Xixiu is making noise again? What's wrong with it, it's been making noise all afternoon."
"Didn't we take all the Galleons it stole from the bar?" William said helplessly. "I'm sulking."
It's not good to be noisy, it's mostly just pretending, just give it a good beating!
Hermione said in surprise, "Didn't you give it ten glass balls in exchange?"
"The amount given recently is too much, and it seems to realize that that thing...is not worth much."
"Then what?" Hermione tensed.
"otherwise……"
"No!" Hermione retorted immediately, with a flash of determination in her eyes.
"Garon can't return it, it's the legal income of both of us!"
Even Hermione, who has a strong sense of justice, thinks that helping Grandpa Newt travel around Paris and being wanted by the French Ministry of Magic... should be charged for running errands.
Reasonable and legal!
Xixiu is exploited by the two of them... Ah bah, the person to charge!
This was not Hermione's unilateral decision, she was very democratic and even called an ad hoc enlarged meeting.
Participants (beasts): Hermione, William, Sniff.
Hermione presided over the meeting and asked for a vote to decide whether Gallon should confiscate it.
Before voting, the girl also claimed that this was a secret ballot, so that William should not have psychological pressure and vote according to his own ideas.
What could William think... what dare he think?
Just two people, anonymous, is there any difference?
The democratic Hermione would be resigned not to be Minister of Magic.
Thus, two votes to one vote, Sniffing Gallon was confiscated by Hermione and became her and William's first public property.
And it is legitimate income.
So Hermione is determined not to take it out, she wants to keep it in Gringotts.
Xixiu was obviously unhappy, and after a long row, William had no choice but to give it ten glass balls in exchange.
Anyway, the wool comes out of the sheep.
It's a pity that Xixiu has realized that the thing is worthless, and it has begun a long journey of asking for salary and defending rights.
"I have a solution, you wait for me here for a while." William ordered, and ran towards a hidden shop.
Three minutes later, William came back with a big bag in his hand.
Hermione pulled the Niffler out of the watch, and William handed it the bag.
After counting the number, Xixiu smiled again, quickly put the bag into his stomach pocket, and returned to the safety watch.
"What's that?" Hermione asked curiously.
"Gold coins." William smiled triumphantly, "But they are not real gold coins, but gold coins made by leprechauns."
Leprechauns are able to produce a "gold coin" much like a Galleon, but this substance disappears within a few hours of being produced.
Lots of places sell it because it disappears quickly and it's cheap.
But that has nothing to do with William, he gave the gold coin to Niu Niu, and if it is lost, it is its own responsibility!
After dealing with the problem of Xixiu, the two continued to search for the mysterious circus.
William took out the leaflet, and the leaflet floated in mid-air, suddenly burning with purple light.
When the magic fire burns unchecked, a fire snake will emerge from it.A young ash snake emerged from the flames and wandered in the air, leaving a trail of ashes.
William and Hermione followed the gray trail and ran towards the depths of the hiding place.
After walking for about 10 minutes, the two came to an open ground with several tents and a big circus tent in the middle.
One banner read: Mystery Circus - Monsters and Freaks!
In the open space outside the tent, a half-human giant, holding a stick, was showing his immense strength.
Several grotesque Muggle beasts walked around dragging chains, asking people for money.
Muggle beasts are similar to Squibs in that they are not magical themselves, but have magical blood.
Half-breed elves and half-goblins, with their horns hidden in their hats and their eerie eyes hidden under their hoods, juggled, somersaulted, and jumped through fire hoops.
William finally knew why this circus was considered illegal.
Aside from those cherished magical creatures, there are all sorts of hybrids... a mix of wizards and other humanoids.
There are even creatures like half-human, half-giant monsters... dare you believe it!
It would be understandable if there were only one or two, but in the circus, William saw seven or eight in just this moment.
Then people have to wonder what disgusting things the circus has done.
The head of the circus is called Skender, a very old man, standing next to the circular performance platform in the center of the crowd.
Skender exclaimed: "In our little program of monsters and strange people, I want to introduce to you-werewolves!"
He jerked open the curtain.A seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl stood there in shabby clothes.
The men in the crowd whistled and booed loudly.
"This girl is a Muggle, who was bitten by a werewolf when she was very young." Skander introduced.
"It's a very small chance, but she survived tenaciously, and she can still maintain her sanity during the full moon... no need for Wolf's Poison."
It has become a consensus that human beings cannot maintain their sanity after transforming into werewolves unless they take wolf poison potion.
A werewolf who can maintain his sanity is really rare.The wizards in the crowd couldn't wait to meet them.
"It's pathetic, isn't it!" Hermione grabbed William's hand tightly.
William nodded.
"It happens to be a full moon tonight, let everyone see it." Skander waved his wand and opened a skylight in the tent.
Bathed in the moonlight, the girl stiffened, and her limbs began to tremble.
The girl's head is elongating, as is her body, her shoulders are arched, and the hair is clearly visible on her face and hands, curled into claws.
A huge wolf appeared in the cage. She lowered her head, stared at Skender with hatred, roared, and kept hitting the cage.
The crowd laughed loudly at Skander. Is this what he said about staying sane?
Skender took out his whip, slapped the iron bars repeatedly, and threw it on the werewolf's face.
She seemed to be unable to bear the pain. After being beaten for a while, she stopped growling and crouched in a corner in fear.
Rather than maintaining sanity, it is better to say that the long-term abuse made this werewolf forcefully maintain sanity.
Skender smiled smugly.
Suddenly, a giant python appeared without warning. It jumped out of the crowd and bit Skander's arm.
— Nagini!
Skander's arm was torn wide, and he collapsed to the ground.The animal trainer rushed over to help.
The crowd panicked, screamed loudly, stomped on each other and ran towards the exit. It was unknown who knocked over the oil lamp and set fire to the circus tent.
The fire made the animals feel scared and irritable.A hippogriff rears up and leaps wildly as the trainers desperately try to keep it under control.
A large number of magical animals took advantage of the chaos and fled, and the animal trainers roared in situ.
"Torn apart!" William and Hermione raised their wands at the same time, pointed at the cage, and blasted a hole in the iron fence that locked the werewolf.
"Nagini is leaving," said Hermione.
William and the werewolf looked at each other, and Apparated away with Hermione.
The female werewolf came out of the cage, and she came to Skander.
Skander was bitten by Nagini and passed out.
The girl stared at Skander with hatred, hesitated for a moment, but instead of killing Skander, she left a tooth mark on his arm.
She glanced at the place where William and Hermione disappeared, and turned to leave.
