Harry Potter's Bastard

The goblin in front of him was not the same as the one Solim had seen in Gringotts, not so much because of the different kinds, but ...... Differences in temperament. The goblin in front of him gave Solim the feeling of being more like a "person" than a goblin.

"You shouldn't be here, young Mr. Selwyn. "

The elf waved his hand, and the bar chair suddenly became shorter, and he jumped on it, and the chair changed back to its original shape.

The house-elf was clearly aware of the goblin's tastes, and a drink with a yellowish color and a strong gasoline flavor was placed in his hand.

If it weren't for the wrong color, Solim even suspected that it was the juice of a glass of Babo's tubers, and the smell of gasoline was too strong.

"You know me?" Solim surveyed the elf.

This was a bit of a surprise to Solim, the goblin knew his identity, and he had been here for less than twenty-four hours.

"Uh-huh—" The elf tapped the bar with his knuckles that looked like nodules.

"I'm going to eat this bowl of rice. The elf glanced at Solim and drank a second ...... That liquid that smells of gasoline.

"Look here—" The elf said, turning his back against the bar, "It's deserted enough, and I'm thankful for all of this." "

Solim glanced at the large group of people in the room.

"So this is—" The elf pointed to where Solim was sitting with his pointed nails, and said, "but it was so full of people that there would even be fights every day in order to squeeze into the bar." And now ......"

At this time, there were three people in front of the bar: Solim, Elena, and this goblin, who was not a "human".

"What does this have to do with me?"

"Many of my old patrons have disappeared since you Selwyn came. The elf stared at Solim with dark eyes, "including some who still have outstanding debts." "

"What does this have to do with me?" said Solim in the same words.

"Don't be nervous. The elf waved his hand, "I'm just reminding you that some of the things you're doing here have already caused a lot of people to turn off, and you'd better be careful if you don't want to get caught in the trouble." "

It's funny how a goblin would kindly send a kind reminder to a wizard? Solim would have preferred that the goblin had another purpose.

As if knowing what Solim was thinking, the elf playfully said, "Don't confuse me with the elves who work for your wizards in Gringotts. This is the New World, not Europe. "

Indeed, the "human smell" of the goblin in front of him is too heavy, not like a goblin at all, and the same is true of the elf, you can't see them like this in the UK.

"I'll just get to the point. The leprechaun pulled half a cigar out of his jacket pocket and took a bite of it.

"If you or this - Miss Grave have an accident on my turf, I'm going to be in trouble. The goblin said as he chewed on the tobacco leaves in his mouth.

"Is this driving us away?" Solim raised an eyebrow, "I thought it was open for business." "

"As long as you can avoid trouble. The elf slammed the chair with his heel, and the chair became low again, sending him to the ground.

"As an apology, your drinks are free. The goblin waved his hand, skirting the bar and disappearing into the back.

Solim noticed that quite a few guests were already looking at them.

"Looks like it's time for us to go. Solim shrugged regretfully.

"I thought you'd be tougher. Elena said.

"Do you think I'm one of those second ancestors in your school, thinking about what to do when something doesn't go your way?" Solim shook his head, "Don't be stupid, people don't want to have anything to do with us at all. "

Elena is still a little girl with little social experience, and her stable campus life makes her feel no sense of crisis. Society is different from school, in school, you can rely on your family background to go on a rampage, but society doesn't eat this very much.

After coming out, Elena was a little unsatisfied.

"I never thought giggles would taste like this. "

"I didn't expect you to choose to drink that kind of thing. "

Actually, giggle is a bit similar to a carbonated drink like Coke, which makes uncontrollable noises after drinking, this drink is very popular in the United States, but for a family like Greif, this kind of thing is not on the table, so Elena never had a chance to try it, she wanted to try it for a long time, and it was not until today that she came to this leprechaun bar to get her wish.

Elena followed Solim to the metro station, the experience of walking Muggle streets like this was still new to her, and she didn't have much chance to go shopping.

Until they got to the subway entrance.

"For the sake of De Frens. On Dane's face, it's too ...... here Oops. Elena looked awkwardly at the pile of garbage in the passageway, and at the walls that had fallen a lot of tiles, with some advertisements plastered on them, but some of them were too hard to read.

"Driverense?" Solim glanced at Elena.

"That's what we use to show surprise—"

"Oh, I see, it's the same as 'Merlin's beard' over there. Solim nodded, the cultural commonality was easy to understand.

"Come on, just ignore these things. Solim took Elena to the ticket window, got a card that could be used by more than one person, and filled it with twenty dollars. According to the sign at the ticket window, this ticket even entitles you to a free bus ride.

Solim walked to the turnstile with a vigilant Elena following the street signs.

"What is this?"

"Uh...... You can understand it as a janitor. Solim swiped twice and stood on the other side of the turnstile looking at Elena.

"Hurry up and ......"

But just as Elena was about to come, the turnstile closed.

"Yes, we have to brush it again. "Solim raised his forehead, this eldest lady obviously has never seen the turnstile, and it seems that she is still a little resistant.

"Why are you so familiar with No-Maj stuff?" Elena eventually came over, she looked around and whispered to Solim, "This is your first time in New York, right?"

"Is it hard to understand?" Solim looked at the time, and the next train was in five minutes.

"The more you isolate yourself from these Muggles, the more likely you will have such consequences. Solim said, "Maybe one day, when you finally decide to blend in with the normal people, you will be surprised to find that their stuff may be more like magic." "
