This set of protective clothing did not involve much magic. Its core was the creatures in the middle layer. After being hit by the Avada Curse, these creatures would die in place of the person wearing the protective clothing, playing a protective role.
Research on specific protective products targeted at the characteristics of different spells.
Elwyn suggested this idea. They did not have to think from the perspective of magic, and the protective products did not have to involve magic. As long as it was effective, there would definitely be many people who would be willing to buy it.
Many Muggle items and concepts also had strong protective properties and could resist black magic.
Of course, compared to magic items, these things had more restrictions, and most of them seemed to be of little value. For example, a simple curse could make the electronic mechanical equipment of the Muggle lose its function. Not everyone was willing to wear a product like the Killing Curse Protective Clothing every day.
The real direction of development was in alchemy, and wizards were more used to it.
Elwyn told Fred and George about what he saw at the International Alchemy Conference, and suggested that they contact those teams to research and make alchemy equipment together.
"The magic weapon developed by the American team can replace wands, although it is not mature yet …"
As he spoke, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the door that had been opened. Hermione hurried in.
She had a worried look on her face, as if something had happened.
"Hermione?"
"What's wrong? Did those house-elves reject you?" Fred asked with a smile.
"That's to be expected. Don't talk to the elves about vomiting anymore …" George said.
"It's Harry and Ron, they're gone," Hermione said anxiously.
The atmosphere suddenly froze. Elwyn, Fred and George all stared at her.
Harry and Ron are gone? Where did they go?
After all, Harry's safety was extremely important. If the Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters took him away …
"They can't go out. Hagrid is guarding outside. If anything happens, he will definitely find out," Fred said immediately. "He won't let Harry and Ron run around."
"So, they must still be in the shop. Maybe there were too many people, and you missed them …" George pondered and said, "Don't worry, Hermione. We should go out and have a look. I dare say that those two guys are hiding behind the counter in the corner and doing something bad."
"I've looked carefully. They're definitely not there." Hermione said with certainty.
"If that's the case, then the problem is serious."
"Does Mom know about this?" Fred asked seriously.
"Not yet. She and Ginny are looking at the Midget Pu that's swaying around in front of the counter. Mr. Weasley is playing Muggle's Pu Playing Cards. They didn't notice that Harry and Ron are gone. I didn't dare to tell them …"
Fred and George's shop wasn't Hogwarts. There were many ways to take someone away from here.
But no matter what, they needed Harry and Ron's cooperation. Otherwise, they would definitely attract attention if they fought.
Even if they suddenly used the Soul Snatch Curse, the possibility of that was not very high.
Harry and Ron must have left on their own. Harry had his Invisibility Cloak, so he could go around Hagrid …
Malfoy was probably the only one who could make him suddenly interested and chase after them without discussing it with them.
"Don't worry. Harry used his Invisibility Cloak to sneak out with Ron. I know where they are." Elwyn said to Fred and George. "Hermione and I will go look for them. Don't let Lady Weasley find out about this. If nothing goes wrong, we'll be back in ten minutes."
After he finished speaking, he brought Hermione with him and appeared in Phantom Mode.
In the next second, they appeared in Knockout Alley. This small street that was closely related to black magic was empty.
Even the shops on both sides of the street were quiet. There seemed to be no customers in any of the shops. On the surface, this street was still under the control of the Ministry of Magic. No matter who it was, no one would be willing to buy during this dangerous and suspicious period, or be seen buying black magic products. That would expose their identity.
"Knockout Alley!" Hermione looked around nervously. "Why would Harry and Ron be here?"
"He must have seen Malfoy coming here and followed them." Elwyn said, identifying the direction. "Animagus Transformation. Hermione, don't let anyone see us."
Two cats, one black and one white, appeared at the end of Knockout Alley, moving forward in an inconspicuous manner.
They walked towards the Burkin-Burke Black Magic Shop. This shop specialized in selling all kinds of dangerous and ominous items.
It was the largest black magic shop in Knockout Alley. If Malfoy wanted that item …
As expected, through the dirty window, Elwyn saw Malfoy standing behind the big black cabinet. He was talking excitedly.
The shop owner, Mr. Burkin, was a man with glossy hair and a hunched body. He was standing in front of Malfoy.
The expression on his face was strange, a mixture of resentment and fear.
Elwyn had seen the future Mr. Burkin before. He was already very old then. His body was crooked and his face was full of wrinkles.
The decline of black magic caused Burkin-Burke Black Magic Shop's business to plummet. However, he still did business with Lord Voldemort's daughter, Delphi. In the end, he was scared to death by the fifteen-year-old Riddle. If this was the end of the largest black magic product supplier, it was truly tragic.
"Meow!" Hermione called out softly.
Elwyn knew that he must be asking where Harry and Ron were.
The two of them were wearing the Invisibility Cloak. Perhaps they were hiding nearby, or they followed Malfoy into the shop.
Elwyn felt that the possibility of that was not high. The shop was filled with boxes filled with skeletons and old bottles. The space was too narrow. It was very likely that they would be discovered.
He and Hermione did not dare to get too close. It was too strange for two cats to walk in!
"Meow!" Hermione called out again and raised her front paw.
Following the direction he was pointing, Elwyn saw a telescopic ear extending from the side window of the shop. It continued intermittently until it finally disappeared behind the pile of old bottles. Harry and Ron must be hiding there.
"Meow!" Elwyn responded and signaled Hermione to go over.
Before they could do anything, Malfoy and Mr. Burkin walked out of the shop.
Malfoy looked satisfied, while Mr. Burkin had a stiff, fake smile on his face.
Elwyn and Hermione tried their best to act like cats. Malfoy did not suspect anything. He even planned to kick Elwyn.
Elwyn dodged with a leap and jumped onto a box next to him. Malfoy cursed.
