The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts — Chapter 197 197. Let’s do business

Scott looked down at the unfolded parchment in his hand.

[Aaron Doherty, born on March 25, 1972, Aries.

Disappeared in May 1989…]

Scott looked at it for a long time before finishing the parchment that recorded Aaron Doherty’s brief life before his disappearance.

He looked at Savannah again.

As the surname indicates, the girl comes from a wizarding family in Northern Ireland.

Moreover, this family seems to be somewhat special.

Although the girl did not write down this special feature in detail, Scott still saw some clues when thinking about some of the information on the parchment and the special nature of the girl’s magic power.

“Your brother didn’t go to Hogwarts?” Scott asked the girl softly.

Savannah nodded, “Yes, our family does not have a tradition of going to Hogwarts, and I am the first one.”

“Do you practice home education?” Scott asked again.

The girl glanced at him and nodded again.

But Scott saw the slight hesitation before she nodded.

But he didn’t ask any more questions.

“I’ll give it a try, although I’m not too sure.”

He took out a new piece of parchment from the deformed lizard skin pouch on his waist, and then took out his pen.

He put aside the piece of parchment the girl gave him, extracted key words from it and wrote them as known conditions.

This time the arithmetic divination was over quickly.

Scott’s final result was the number [3].

“Something strange.”

He closed his eyes and felt for a while, then looked at Savannah again.

“My conclusion is that your brother is still alive,” he said with a frown.

A look of joy immediately appeared on Savannah’s face, but when she saw Scott’s expression, she asked with some fear: “Is there anything strange?”

“Aaron’s body, consciousness and spirit are not unified.”

Scott thought for a while before starting to explain.

“How should I put it? The number [3] tells me that Aaron’s body is sleeping, his consciousness is between half-dream and half-awake, but his spirit is very active.”

He had just thought about it for a long time but couldn’t figure out what was going on, and almost concluded that his arithmetic divination was wrong.

But seeing Savannah’s somewhat enlightened expression after hearing the explanation, Scott immediately understood that his divination should not be wrong.

It seemed that Savannah didn’t tell him the truth. She should know something about Aaron’s condition.

But this is a private matter after all, and Scott has no intention of delving into it.

He’s just a guy who gets paid to do things.

“Thank you, Scott.”

Savannah took out two gold galleons from her pocket and placed them on the table, and then packed up her things on the table.

“Bye, Scott.”

She glanced at Scott again, and after looking at him for a second, she suddenly blushed and turned around quickly, and quickly left the empty classroom.

Scott raised his eyebrows and watched her disappear out the door.

With a mature soul, he certainly understands what the girl’s subtle strange behaviors may mean.

But it’s a pity that the other party is just an 11-year-old girl, and she is just a child in his eyes.

So he shook his head and quickly put the matter away.

At this moment, Eddie and the Weasley twins ran in.

Eddie was still holding a bag of food in his hands.

“How about it……”

Eddie put the food in his hand on the table and immediately laughed when he saw the two gold galleons on the table.

“It seems that Miss Doherty is very satisfied with this arithmetic divination.”

He smiled and stretched out his hand to pick up the two gold galleons.

But Fred, who had quick eyes and quick hands, took the gold coin in his hand first.

“Oh, lovely Golden Galleons.”

He looked at the gold coins in his hand with intoxication.

“No matter how many times I see them, they are still so fascinating.”

“Hey!” Eddie said sarcastically, “You’re just as greedy as those goblins in Gringotts!”

Fred glanced at him, puffed up his chest, gestured to the height difference between the two, and said proudly: “Eddie, have you ever seen a tall and handsome goblin like me?”

George burst out laughing.

Eddie blushed with anger. He admitted that Fred and George were slightly taller than him, but he refused to admit that these two people had anything to do with the word handsome.

Fred and George thought Eddie was just jealous of them. They proudly said that they were the most handsome Weasley boys ever.

Since Eddie had only met Percy and Ron from the Weasley family, he didn’t know how to refute it for a moment.

“Okay, gentlemen.”

Scott said helplessly.

“As for which one of you is more handsome, I think you should let the girls evaluate it instead of having a meaningless fight here.”

Of course, I’m much more handsome than you all.

He thought confidently as he gnawed on his sandwich.

But in order not to undermine the confidence of these three good friends, he decided not to tell this obvious fact.

“I have an idea.”

He swallowed the food in his mouth and said to the three of them.

“We don’t have anything to use the money for now, so let’s just keep these gold galleons. Why don’t we use them as capital to start a small business?”

“Weren’t we always in business?” Eddie asked.

Indeed, whether he claims to be an underground Ravenclaw businessman or the twins who are determined to open a Weasley joke shop, they usually do some sneaky small business.

“I mean to do some serious business.”

Scott looked at him with contempt.

“Not like you, who swindles people by calling fox feces as Bafey brain-stimulating agent and Muggle conditioner as hair care potion.”

“Hey!”

Eddie, who was exposed by Scott, looked at him with dissatisfaction.

The twins laughed suddenly.

“I admit that you are much better than us, Eddie.” Fred looked at him in surprise, “We just sell some immature prank props.”

“But they are all effective!” George emphasized, “It may be a little unstable.”

Scott wanted to directly comment that they were all pitfalls.

Although Eddie sold fake drugs, his fake drugs were at least harmless to people, but the immature products of the twins were often accompanied by some unpredictable side effects.

In other words, the vitality of the young wizards was tenacious, and they especially liked to die, which made their products sellable.

Scott said, “What I mean is that after we have the capital, we can do some business that can make money steadily.”

Although he only performed two arithmetic divinations and earned a total of four gold galleons, in the magic world, the purchasing power of a gold galleon is very strong.

“I have no experience in doing business, so you need to think about this.” Scott continued, “If you think about it, we can receive two more guests at a time starting next week.”

The truth is, Scott believes in the ability of these three good friends to make money. He wants to continue to be a hands-off boss and only prepare to provide capital.

“No problem!”

Eddie and the twins said in unison.

They are already eager to try.

Sorry, it’s a little late today. It seems that the third chapter will be after 12 o’clock.
