Chapter 585: pit (1/2)
At the wizard card party at the end of November, Lee Jordan finally took over from Albert the task of preparing for the wizard card game for the second half of the semester. He has already held two sessions of the wizard card game. The race is easy to learn.
However, the number of participants this year is a bit unsatisfactory. Even if Albert took out the ”expensive” amulet as a prize for the championship, he barely gathered thirty-two contestants, which made Lee Jordan depressed for a long time. I wonder if it's because I'm not as attractive as Albert, there is not a girl who signed up for this Wizarding Card Competition.
He couldn't help but complain to Albert: ”Is it my bad luck or my face is so dark that scared the girls away.”
Although Lee Jordan knew that it was not his problem, but... still felt that he had messed up what Albert had told him when he officially took over.
Albert didn't care at all and comforted the other party casually.
As time entered December, Hogwarts Castle was shrouded in wind and snow, and the owls who delivered the letters were all thinner, but there were always exceptions, and Sheila was fatter.
Daisy and Herb wrote to tell him that the itinerary for the Christmas holiday has changed. They will go to France first, and where to stay for two days, waiting for him to go to Italy for vacation together after attending the wedding.
Albert suspected that Mogg told his parents about the matter. Given the enlightened level of Daisy and Herb, it is not difficult to understand that they would make such a choice.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Mogg tampered with the memories of the two. To be honest, Albert can't compliment the wizard's morals.
That afternoon, on Albert's way to the library, Hermione hurried over and brought him good news: Harry failed to make a deal with Mondungus Fletcher after all.
Hermione was dissatisfied with Mr. Mondungus, the thief who wanted to cheat them all the time, she would rather take the risk to deal with Snape.
The failure of the transaction can only be regarded as following the historical trend. The world is sometimes so wonderful, but it suffers from Harry and Ron. It takes a lot of risk to make trouble in the Potions class.
It is said that the thief Mr. Montongues had some trouble a few days before the transaction. He broke through the empty door to steal things, and was hated by others. It doesn't matter if there is no evidence. For those old wizards who have Kanon and connections, wanting to avenge the thief who wanders in the gray area is too simple.
As a result, Mondungus was spotted by the employees of the Ministry of Magic, and the other party detained Mondungus' suitcase on the grounds of unlicensed operation, and all the goods in it were naturally destroyed.
Next, the process of collecting evidence is very simple.
On the grounds of missing some prohibited items, the employees of the Ministry of Magic severely fined Mondungus a large amount of Garon, and planned to send the person to Azkaban prison for a few days.
Mondungus Fletcher was naturally unwilling to catch him. He originally wanted to use the obfuscation spell on the Ministry employee when he was not paying attention. He wanted to use this to fool the past, but the spell bounced back.
As a result, the thief was charged with an assault on an employee of the Ministry of Magic and was fined two hundred gallons, plus half a year in Azkaban prison.
It's really gratifying.
The deal between Mondungus Fletcher and Hermione (Harry) fell through, and this incident even made him appear in the second edition of the Daily Prophet.
If Mondungus knew that he was planted on Albert's amulet, I wonder how he would feel.
However, he also used his Garon to achieve Albert's reputation as amulets. Because of this, the wizards who were out of the Ministry of Magic wanted to purchase similar amulets to resist some unexpected sneak attacks.
Mr. Toller made a lot of money because of this, and also planned to continue to buy from Albert, and even had a long-term desire to cooperate with the Ministry of Magic, but it was a pity that he didn't get his wish.
The field of defense against the dark arts is a cash cow left by Albert, how can it be generous to share with others?
