Chapter 520: Helpless beetle (1/2)
The scandals in the newspaper still caused some trouble for Albert.
Fred, George and Lee Jordan did not forget to send a ridiculous letter to Albert, by the way congratulations on his winning the international wizard chess tournament.
To solve the trouble, Albert accepted an exclusive interview with Rita Skeeter.
The interview location was in the Madame Petitfu Teahouse in Hogsmeade, which is open all day long, but there are basically no customers.
In the teahouse, Albert flipped through the latest issue of the Daily Prophet. After hearing that the chair was being pulled, he slowly raised his head, looked at the witch who appeared in front of him, and asked: ”Rita Ski Miss Te?”
The witch's blonde hair was turned into a large delicate curl, a pair of jeweled glasses was worn on the bridge of her nose, her fingers were holding a crocodile leather handbag, and her nails were red.
If she was dressed like Rita Skeeter in her youth, she should be a fashionable and beautiful girl, but she is already old.
”Yes, it is not easy to interview you once, Mr. Anderson.”
Rita Skeeter sat across from Albert and also looked at the young talented wizard in front of him. To be honest, the other's gaze made her very uncomfortable, and she had the illusion of being seen through.
”Actually, I don't like interviews, and I don't like being too ostentatious.”
Albert took a sip of milk tea, and said with a smile, ”However, you and your colleagues always like to make up facts, and it still brings me some trouble, so I came to see you.”
”People always like to watch something...” Rita Skeeter couldn't help but squinted. She had never seen such a difficult teenager.
”I know,” Albert interrupted, ”attracting readers' attention. Of course I also know that I have the same troubles in France and the United States, and your colleagues like it very much.”
After speaking, Albert's gaze fell on the quill pen he was writing and drawing in the notebook.
”Leave that pen alone, Mr. Anderson, tell me...”
”I suggest that you don't use it to record the words between us. That might be unkind to you.” Albert took his gaze away from the shorthand quill and interrupted Rita Skeeter rudely. ”I know exactly what kind of reporter you are, and the purpose of a newspaper is to sell yourself, regardless of whether the content is true or false.”
As he said, Albert drank the milk tea in his cup, intertwined his fingers and looked at Rita Skeeter, suddenly showing a weird smile: ”Everyone has their own secret, and you are no exception. You are An...illegal Animagus, right!”
Albert said the last sentence very lightly, only he and Rita Skeeter could hear it.
”what……”
Rita Skeeter's eyes widened, her tone was incredible, and she almost knocked over the black tea in front of her, ”I don't know what you are talking about!” She took a deep breath and said coldly.
”Let me see, what is your Animagus?”
”What did you do to me?” Rita Skeeter had a very bad feeling, and quickly looked away, not daring to look into Albert's eyes.
”Oh, it turned out to be a beetle?”
Albert murmured softly, ”So, do you often use Animagus to inquire about news?”
In the horrified and unbelievable gaze of the female reporter, Albert nodded and said, ”Yes, Animagus is really suitable for spy work.”
”you……”
Rita Skeeter was trembling all over, and she felt that the person in front of her was a terrible devil, and she could see through herself easily.
Albert raised the corners of his mouth and said softly, ”Don't doubt, I am a photographer.”
”It's useless, no one would believe it.” Rita Skeeter quivered her lips, as if she had taken a lot of effort to say this.
”If you have investigated me, you should know that I know many famous wizards and keep good correspondence with them. As long as I write a letter to them, believe me, Azkaban Prison will definitely welcome you. ”Albert laughed unkindly: ”I think there should be a lot of wizards who hate you. They will definitely take the opportunity to get into trouble!”
”Okay, what do you want?” Rita Skeeter clenched her fists. She actually wanted to cast an oblivion spell on the other party and write another vicious article that would discredit the other party, but she quickly Give up this idea and slumped in a chair weakly.
”If you don't want anything, you can re-order the tea, we are talking about the next thing.”
As he said, Albert took out his pocket and pushed it in front of Rita Skeeter, and said calmly: ”I hope you help me wash away those **** scandals, I can answer some of your questions. , Will give you a fee.”
”that's it?”
”Of course not. I hope that in the future, everything related to my news, you just need to simply or ignore it. If you really need it, write to me instead of making up and making trouble for me.”
