Chương 123: Chapter 123 Lockhart’s Zero Dollar Purchase Plan
Deep in Gringotts, the Goblin's Apartment.
As the place that manages the wealth of the entire British wizarding world, Gringotts always has a large number of goblins present. Due to their greedy nature, many goblins live directly in Gringotts, enjoying the joy of wandering through the vast treasure vault every day.
Over time, Gringotts has become not only a workplace for goblins but also a place where they live. Deep in Gringotts, every goblin has his own little room. Some goblins work during the day and rest at night, while others do the opposite. In short, Gringotts operates 24 hours a day, continuously absorbing the wealth of the entire wizarding world.
The goblin that took Lockhart to his vault typically works during the day and rests at night. So at night, he returned to his apartment and very excitedly put the tip he got from Lockhart today into his treasured money jar. He then re-counted the amount accumulated in the money jar. After finding that there was no problem, he happily hugged the jar and lay on the bed, slowly falling into a deep sleep.
At the same time, far away in Hogsmeade, Lockhart used his spiritual perception to lock onto the mark he left on the goblin. He nodded secretly, a thoughtful look on his face. Then, for the sake of Coffy in front of him, he directly ordered, "Coffy, you will follow me later. Don't talk. Just do whatever I say."
"Okay, Master," Coffy nodded so excitedly that his head almost hit the ground. But it seemed that Coffy also knew that Lockhart didn't like him to act this way, so he quickly put his head away, widened his eyes, and looked at Professor Lockhart expectantly.
Seeing this, Lockhart didn't say anything. He held the Sling Ring and quickly drew a circle based on the position of the mark. In less than two or three seconds, a sparking portal appeared in front of Lockhart. He went directly through the portal with Coffy. As for Sunny, who wanted to follow him, Lockhart was worried about something happening, so he just let him stay in the house and wait.
When Sunny looked at the large amount of food placed in front of him, he had no problem with his owner being busy with his own business while he enjoyed his feast.
Lockhart entered the goblin's apartment. Looking at the goblin who was lying on the bed, holding the jar and falling asleep, the corner of his mouth twitched. This was the first time he saw someone—no, a goblin—sleeping and hugging a jar of money. Feeling the large amounts of Sickles and Galleons hidden in the jar, Lockhart was once again speechless about the goblin's money-grubbing nature.
Then, "Imperio!" Lockhart waved his wand and cast the Imperius Curse directly on the sleeping goblin. The goblin had no sense of defense at all. In an instant, a green light emerged from the tip of Lockhart's wand and quickly shot towards the goblin's head.
Boom! After being hit by the spell, the goblin's body stiffened, his hands naturally dropped, and the jar placed on his chest fell onto the bed with a thud. However, due to the good sealing of the jar, the Galleons and Sickles did not fall out.
The goblin, who was sleeping, suddenly felt that he had come to a very warm place, like heaven, and was completely addicted to it.
"Nott, wake up!" Lockhart ordered directly. As if being called by something, the goblin Nott stood up in a daze, staring at Lockhart as if he were a piece of wood. When Coffy behind him saw this scene, surprise flashed in his eyes, but he was not particularly panicked. The Avery family, like other pure-blood families, had used the three Unforgivable Curses. As long as one didn't use them in public, even if someone did catch them, with the power of a pure-blood family, they could get away with it. It's just a matter of how much it costs.
"Tell me, where is Bellatrix's vault?" Lockhart ordered directly. Besides wanting to make a fortune this time, he came to Gringotts for the sake of Voldemort's most loyal subordinate's vault—Bellatrix Lestrange. He clearly remembered that Bellatrix's vault contained all the wealth of the Lestrange family and Voldemort's Horcrux—the Hufflepuff Cup! This time, he could definitely make a fortune.
As his thoughts turned, Lockhart heard goblin Nott reply, "Sir, it's the underground vault No. 472."
"Can you open the vault?" Lockhart asked. Coffy behind him saw this scene and said nothing, even having a flash of excitement in his eyes.
"No," Goblin Nott shook his head and said, "That place belongs to the bottom of the vault and I am not responsible for managing it. And the keys are managed by specialized goblins."
Hearing Nott's answer, Lockhart was a little disappointed, but he didn't care. This situation was what he expected. Then he directly ordered, "Draw a map from my vault to the underground vault No. 472."
As he spoke, Lockhart waved his wand, and a piece of parchment and feathers appeared in front of Nott. After hearing Lockhart's order, Nott picked up the parchment and quill, walked to the table next to him, and started drawing.
Seeing this scene, the corners of Lockhart's mouth curled up slightly. Turning around, he said to Coffy behind him, "Coffy, I'll give you two tasks."
"Okay, Master," Coffy danced excitedly after hearing his master's order. "Coffy guarantees that the mission will be completed."
For Coffy, being able to participate in such an important task just after joining his master showed that the master valued him. For a house-elf, this was the greatest honor.
Seeing the somewhat excited movements of Coffy, Lockhart frowned slightly but did not say anything. He ordered, "Two things must be done well."
"First thing, keep watching this goblin for a while. If he shows any signs of waking up, knock him out immediately."
"Okay, Coffy understands," Coffy nodded heavily.
"The second thing, wait a moment, we are going to another vault. All you have to do is take good care of my body."
"Don't worry, Master, Coffy will never let anyone touch you."
Seeing Coffy's quick nod, Lockhart smiled with satisfaction. Then, he watched quietly as the goblin Nott drew a map leading to Bellatrix's vault. Soon, Nott placed a map in front of Lockhart. Looking at a large number of black lines of different thicknesses and various markers, Lockhart casually asked Nott to explain the entire map.
Nott pointed to a point on the map and introduced, "Sir, this is the location of your vault." Then following a thick black line, he continued, "This is the route to Bellatrix's vault. In the middle, you will pass Vault 820 and then turn a corner..."
