v3 Chapter 181: Mad Eye

Latest URL:

The main reason Tonks was drawn to her was the sight of a familiar glass eyeball. This eyeball, how Tonks looks like the fake eye of Mad-Eye Moody's predecessor.

Tonks and Mad-Eye knew each other for a long time, but they didn't know each other because of the Order of the Phoenix. Tonks joined the Order very late, waiting until Voldemort made a comeback.

Why wasn't Tonks the first members of the Order of the Phoenix? Because she is too young. Because of her mature face, Tonks always gave people the feeling of a mature and reliable big sister. In fact, she just graduated a few years ago.

She was in the same class as Charlie Weasley! Charlie is only eight years older than Ron, Tonks and Harry can be said to be the same generation from a Muggle perspective. But from the wizard's point of view, it was very reluctant. Tonks was probably half a generation taller than Harry and the others.

Because of its special admission time and education mechanism, the magic world always gives people a sense of confusion. Since the wizarding world entered school at the age of eleven and graduated seven years later to work, many students entered the society at the age of seventeen or eighteen. The age of a high school student in the Muggle world.

As a result, the real age of many people does not match the age in the impression. Take Harry's parents, for example, everyone always feels like they are about to turn 30. In fact, Harry's father, James, was born in 1960 and died in 1981. He was 21 when he died - when Harry was a year old, Ten months pregnant, Lily is likely to be Harry who was pregnant at the age of nineteen, which is completely inconsistent with the impression of ordinary people!

However, because Tonks' parental stance leaned towards the Order of the Phoenix, she also received the attention of the Order of the Phoenix, and received Auror training under the attention of Mad-Eye Moody, a member of the Order of the Phoenix, and finally officially became an Auror this year. ——It is roughly equivalent to studying for a Ph.D. after graduation, and finally getting the highest degree in the magic world.

Since she was familiar with Moody, she also knew the magic of Moody's eye. She originally thought that this level of alchemy creation was the only one in the entire magic world. Unexpectedly, she saw the same style in a filthy little shop today.

"What's this?" Tonks asked, pointing to the box.

"Hand of Glory," explained Mr. Borgin, trying to cheer up Tonks, "put a candle on it, and only the person holding it can see the light! It's a thief--don't want to disturb the kindness of others at night. Man's best friend."

Tonks scoffed at Mr. Borgin's words. How could she not hear what Borgin meant: this thing called the Hand of Glory was the best for thieves. It is also difficult for Bo Jin to find a plausible explanation for the Hand of Glory in such a short period of time.

"It's not that, it's that eyeball." Tonks asked, ignoring the Hand of Glory and the bloodstained playing cards next to him, pointing to the glass eyeball.

Bogin: "I don't know."

He had already realized that Tonks was not a customer, so he was not obliged to answer her questions. He just had an occupational disease, so he would answer her subconsciously.

Tonks realized the difficulty of the question: Borgin didn't answer the question, and he couldn't help himself!

In the next ten minutes, no matter what Tonks asked, Bo Jin looked like "I don't know anything". Even if he answered it, he only talked about some innocuous functions. This handkerchief can make things Accelerates aging, that blanket makes things newer, this bread strengthens memory, that kind of glasses improves sleep quality…

From Mr. Borgin's answer alone, you can't feel the relationship between this shop and the dark magic at all.

However, Bo Jin was not without losses. Most of the objects with tags were confiscated by Tonks, and she also put away the ornaments on the shelf that were suspected to be human bones.

"I know you're not telling the truth, Mr. Borgin, but it doesn't matter, someone is more knowledgeable than me." Tonks finally couldn't help it after playing the riddle for more than ten minutes. She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of a wooden stick hitting the ground sounded outside the store door. When Bo Jin heard the sound, he was stunned at first, and then his face changed greatly.

With the ringing of the doorbell, a man with a huge cane and wearing a large windbreaker appeared at the door of the store. He is not young, because his long hair has turned gray. Anyone who saw Moody's first glance would understand that this man was a battle-hardened fighter, as every inch of his face seemed to be scarred, his mouth was like a slanted mouth, and where his nose should have been raised. gone.

It was one of his prosthetic legs that made the thumping sound. But prosthetic legs aren't his most distinctive feature. He has two eyes, one small, with black eyeballs. The other was large, a vivid bright blue, and moved without blinking, turning up and down, left and right, completely irrelevant to the normal eye.

Seeing this person appear, Mr. Borgin's breathing seemed to freeze. The surrounding batters also widened their eyes, looking at the weird man at the door, a name was about to come out of their mouths:

Alastor Moody! The finest Auror of modern times, hero of the Wizarding Wars, and caretaker of the Dementors of Azkaban. It is said that this Auror sent in half of Azkaban's Death Eaters.

Tonks' expression softened all of a sudden, smiled and said to Moody, "Sorry to disturb your retirement, Alastor. But I really need you to help me identify, please."

"Yeah." Moody responded very briefly, then circled around Borgin Borkry, his prosthetic eye twitching. Finally, his eyes rested on the bag carried by one of the hitters, which contained the harvest they had just made in this store.

"Fighting Death Eaters and black magic is never a distraction to me," he replied first to Tonks, then pointed to the bag. "You confiscated this stuff? Half of it is fake!"

Moody's gruff voice echoed in the store, and the hitters were in an uproar: Fakes? how is this possible? Could it be that Bo Jin was tricked when he was collecting things?

Moody took out his wand and shuddered, and several items that Tonks and the others had put away flew out of the bag and fell to the ground.

"These are all fakes, the real stuff is...here!" Moody limped behind the cashier, picked up his cane, slammed the cashier hard, and a series of chains and gears creaked. up.

The cashier rose slowly, and a large cabinet floated up from the ground.

Today, it is the story of Ignatius Taft, the twenty-seventh Minister of Magic. He is the son of Wilmina Taft.

ps: The author's words contain a little research about Professor Charlie and McGonagall.

------off topic-----

Ignatius Tuft was a wizard who served as Minister for Magic from 1959 to 1962. Taft was a hardliner who used the popularity of his mother, Wilmina Taft, to win the election. He was forced to step down in 1962 after promising a controversial and dangerous Dementor breeding program (well, Tom dared not do it).

Upper Charlie's admission time must be wrong. It says Charlie didn't graduate until 1991 - but Harry and Ron were already in school by then. Gryffindor suffered a crushing defeat without a suitable Seeker. So Charlie should have graduated in 1990.

2. As for Professor McGonagall's entry on pottermore, it's even more nonsense.

It says that Professor McGonagall was Newt's teacher, but Newt was born in 1897! How could Professor McGonagall be older than him? Completely misleading by God 1. The Gods 1 movie threw the hp timeline into chaos.
