Chapter 166： Little things (1/2)

Mafalda Hopkirk has been working for the Ministry of Magic since graduating from Hogwarts, and now serves as an assistant to the director of the Ministry of Magic’s Office of Prohibition of Abuse of Magic.

Hopkirk’s usual job is to send a warning letter to the offender on behalf of the director after receiving the illegal information, stating the violation of the law. If the situation is serious, he needs to notify the emergency team to take action.

However, just today, Hopkirk encountered something that made her extremely depressed.

Someone actually wrote back to tell her: Your Ministry of Magic has made an Oolong incident.

The sender is called Albert Anderson, and he is studying at Hogwarts.

In the letter, Anderson clearly pointed out that he was on vacation in France with his family, and did not carry a magic wand when leaving the country, let alone use a flying curse. The Ministry of Magic must have made a mistake. He hoped that the Ministry of Magic could resolve the misunderstanding between the two parties. And wrote him back.

In fact, Hopkirk does not think that Anderson is lying, because the most favorable evidence is that Anderson will not use the Flying Curse at all, and the other party has just finished first grade at Hogwarts.

Will first-year freshmen use Feilai Charm?

Even Hopkirk didn't believe it.

If you don't use the flying curse, it is naturally impossible to cast spells.

Therefore, the prohibition of the abuse of the Magic Office is undoubtedly a mistake, and this is not the first time, and Hopkirk is not too surprised.

But...what does this matter have to do with me?

Hopkirk is only responsible for sending letters and notices. She is not responsible for dealing with issues in this area, nor does she have such rights.

Oh, no, it really has something to do with her.

Hopkirk has the right to decide whether to give this letter to the director of the Office for Prohibition of Abuse of Magic, or to throw the letter directly into a trash can.

Based on her understanding of her boss, the other party would probably not care about such things!

After all, this is just a trivial matter, there is no need to go into it too deeply.

When Mafalda Hopkirk prepares to deal with it in private.

Well, the so-called private processing is actually destroying the letter or throwing it into a trash can. After all, she herself is just an assistant.

Although I have some understanding of the laws that impose reasonable restrictions on underage wizards, he is only an assistant after all, and his duty is to help write warning letters and other tasks.

When Hopkirk was about to throw the letter into the trash can, she suddenly remembered something from last year. She still remembered the Oolong incident caused by Zongsi, which was quite a big deal at the time.

In the end, it was exposed by the Daily Prophet, and Natley, who was in charge of handling this matter, caused himself a lot of trouble and was almost transferred to the Ma Ren Liaison Office.

”It doesn't seem good to throw it away, let's hand it over to the director!” Hopkirk hesitated, still thinking that it was her duty. As for how her boss would handle it, it didn't matter to her.

Of course, Hopkirk can also guess what will happen after this letter is sent.

As Hopkirk had expected, his boss didn't even glance at the letter at the end of his eyes, and threw it at the desk.

When Hopkirk saw the letter again, it had been thrown into the trash can.

However, something that Hopkirk did not know, such a result was also expected by Albert.

It's just that Hopkirk didn't even know. They didn't know when they had already stood in front of the big pit dug by others. Just behind them, someone was ready to lift a foot and kick them into the pit.

...

After returning home, Albert began to write replies to the people he sent.

The Weasley brothers naturally also received Albert's mailing list, along with the gift Albert bought for the twins-a rubber duck.

Well, the yellow rubber duck is actually a gift that Albert bought in a grocery store near his home. Of course he knew that Fred and George would not like this gift, because it was for Mr. Weasley.

Albert wanted the twins to ask Mr. Weasley how to deal with his situation.

Fred and George expressed sympathy (gloating) for Albert's experience in their reply, and wrote in their reply:
