Chapter 347： Magic candy (1/2)
An hour later, Albert, Fred, and George returned to the Broken Cauldron Bar after completing their purchases. Mrs. Weasley, Ron, and Percy have not yet returned. However, their books had already been delivered, and they were piled on the floor beside the table of Herb and Mr. Weasley.
After seeing Albert's return, Herb couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and asked: ”Have you bought everything?”
”If you have all the books, you will buy them all.” Albert picked out a marked package from his pile and said, ”This is a gift for everyone.”
”Mrs. Weasley has bought all the books you want.” Herb pointed to the package next to him, ”Then I will go back first, and you must pay attention to your safety.”
”Don't worry, we are safe there.” Mr. Weasley smiled and helped move things.
Fred and George have always wanted to invite Albert to play at home for a few days, saying that Albert had helped them a lot. This time it finally succeeded.
”Mr. Anderson is not the same as the Muggles I have seen.” Mr. Weasley said with emotion, looking at the direction where the car disappeared.
Every time he discusses certain electrical appliances in the Muggle World with other people, they will look at him like a lunatic.
Muggles like Herb who can patiently explain to him the usefulness of those electrical appliances are rare, and the tone of the other person's speech makes him feel very comfortable.
It is not difficult to see that Herb is very concerned about his son and asked a lot about the magic world.
It is very important to communicate and understand each other.
”Well, he is very receptive to certain things.” Albert knew that Herb actually didn't have much patience, and said casually, ”After all, his son is a wizard.”
After returning to the Broken Cauldron Bar, Mr. Weasley ordered a glass of butter beer for each of the three, preparing to continue chatting with Albert on the topic of Muggle appliances.
However, the topic was quickly turned off by Albert, discussing the invasion of Gringotts.
”Everyone suspects that some very powerful dark wizard did it.” Mr. Weasley said what he knew. ”This is not good news. The goblins of Gringotts were almost mad. They still can't find it. A clue to the intruder.”
”The Daily Prophet said that the thing was not lost, as if it was taken away in advance.” Albert said suddenly, ”It should be a very valuable item.”
”I don't know.” Mr. Weasley didn't want to talk about it.
”That group of fairies are actually stupid.” Albert suddenly lowered his voice.
Mr. Weasley opened his mouth, but listened to Albert continue to say, ”If you can't find the culprit, you can actually ask the owner of the item, maybe the other party knows who invaded Gringotts.”
”Why?”
Mr. Weasley was also taken aback, but Fred was the first to ask everyone's doubts.
”The fairies didn't reveal what was in the vault. Certainly not many people knew what that item was.” Albert said in a low voice, ”and the thief stared at it directly, it means that the other party knows what's in the vault, otherwise Why didn't he steal other valuable things, but stared directly at the things in the vault?”
”Well, it makes sense, the thief is definitely not ignorant.” George agreed.
”Then, the wizard who put the things in Gringotts would not have no idea about this? He obviously knew or had a premonition, otherwise it would be impossible to take the things away in advance.” Albert continued to analyze, ” There are not so many coincidences in the world.”
Mr. Weasley also had to admit that what Albert said was reasonable.
However, this topic could not continue. Mrs. Weasley returned with a bunch of packages with Ron, followed by Percy with an owl.
They asked Tom, the owner of the Broken Cauldron Bar, to borrow the fireplace and use Floo powder to return to the Burrow.
Albert was the first to get out of the fireplace. As soon as he moved his position, there were rapid footsteps upstairs.
