Arms dealer from Hogwarts

Chapter 78 Interception
Shen Jun's Pegasus horse galloped through the night sky, and Jemini leaned against the bed of the carriage, resting his chin with one hand, blowing the evening breeze slightly drunk.

He had just been given a lot of alcohol by Slughorn. The old man had no attitude towards minors at all.

Slughorn is a very interesting old man. Perhaps it was because of Voldemort that he asked the question just now. Although it was a bit impolite, Jemini could understand it.

"I'm very sorry, Fox..." Charlotte sat next to Jemini, with a hint of apology in her eyes.

"what?"

"You obviously came to the banquet for me, but something like this happened." Charlotte said softly, "This will have a very bad impact on your reputation."

"It's okay, it's good to be active occasionally." Jemini smiled gently: "And it's not a bad thing to lighten up your muscles properly, so that those idiots with malicious intentions will be full of awe."

As he said, Jemini spread his hands: "Everyone has bad roots. If I just showed a little timidity, then people will think that I am nothing more than that, and that the Gray family where I live is weak and deceitful." , Charlotte, what's the point of bringing me back? If I can't bring you shelter, then why should I enjoy your care with peace of mind?"

"It's like I showed my fangs this time. Although the impact is not very good, what I can be sure of is that this kind of thing will never happen again in the future."

Charlotte is still a little guilty: "But the impact has still occurred. After this incident, I don't know what the outside world will say about you..."

"No." Jemini smiled gently: "Public opinion is a murderous knife, but as long as you hold it in your own hands, it is not so terrible."

"I heard that Ms. Rita Skeeter's article is very good. I will send her a letter. She knows what to do."

With Jemini's temper of urinating when he catches a toad, it is impossible to let Rita Skeeter, such a good tool, be let go.

Just as Jemini thought, Rita Skeeter did not refuse.

When Jemini sent her a letter, she also sent her fifty Galleons as a touch-up fee, and Rita Skeeter stayed up all night to write an article denouncing Patrick.

A few days later, in the Daily Prophet, Rita vividly showed Patrick's obsession with Charlotte and the ugliness of Jemini's swear words, and portrayed Jemini as a strong, considerate and warm man.

'Although he was only 12 years old, Jemini Foxx showed no fear when faced with Patrick's oppression, and showed his terrifying side, chopping off Patrick's arm with superb swordsmanship, but according to Mr. Slughorn Said that in private, Jemini Fox is a very warm and kind teenager. '

'It's not been a day or two since he pestered me. I knew he was doing it for the property of the Gray family. When he heard that the Gray family now belongs to Mr. Fox, he looked very irritable. — Charlotte Gray'

'Don't you think he looks like a gorilla? —Shirley Gray'

The entire article was written with a lot of emotion, and as soon as the newspaper was published, Patrick died on the spot.

Jemini didn't treat Rita badly either, and sent another fifty Galleons backhand.

If you want the horse to run, you have to let the horse eat grass.

If Jamini wants Rita Skeeter to serve him willingly, he can't just rely on threats and intimidation.

If the one hundred Galleons are sent out, once something happens next time, Jemini doesn't need to say anything, Rita Skeeter will definitely jump out to wash the ground for him immediately.

The week flew by, and finally, it was Charlotte's campaign day.

Thanks to Rita Skeeter's article, Charlotte's reputation has been rising recently. Bai Fumei in the wizarding world lives in the house with an existence comparable to a three-headed dog, plus Ravenclaw The relationship between the addition of the crown and Slughorn, Charlotte finally defeated the opponent with a vote of 32:15, and won the status of the Wizengamot Councilor.

Among them was Dumbledore's vote for her.

This also means that Charlotte currently has the same status as Dumbledore. Of course, it's just status, and the influence of the two is completely incomparable.

And just half a month after Charlotte won the election, Reid also established a company called Fox Heavy Industries in the United States.

Jamie immediately sent him a Mk-48 there.

Mk-48 is a world-class light machine gun, which is improved from M249.

There is a reason why Jemini chose the MK-48 gun. At this time in 92, the MK-48 had not yet been developed.

In other words, this gun is used to allow Reid to patent applications and research and development.

Now the U.S. military is still using the M249, which is the predecessor of the Mk-48, but the differences between the two are not small in terms of technology and appearance, so there is no need to worry about patent applications, and in terms of the performance of this gun, it should be It will soon gain a firm foothold in the market.

When it goes into production, it will be the day when Jemini will harvest.

At the end of July, the days in Gray's house were calm, and Jemini had a feeling that everything was on track.

fluttering...

The sound of flapping wings sounded outside the window, Jemini opened the window, and the snow-white Hedwig bumped into his arms.

"What's the matter? Are you acting like a spoiled child to me?" Jemini smiled lightly and smoothed Hedwig's feathers: "Did the gift arrive? How did Harry react?"

"Gu..."

Hedwig huddled in Jemini's arms, trembling uneasily. Jemini narrowed his eyes slightly, and stretched out his hand to gently press Hedwig's wing. The feathers on Hedwig's right wing were a little messy, and a few wing feathers were loose. , it looked like it was about to fall.

"The gift was intercepted?"

Jemini asked gently, snapped his fingers, and Rum's figure instantly appeared beside Jemini, offering a small bottle of potion with both hands.

"Gu..."

Hedwig turned her head away, looking aggrieved.

"So who's that guy? Can you find him?" Jemini asked.

"Please allow me to interject, my respected Master Fox." Rum squinted his eyes and glanced at Hedwig: "I can feel the traces of elf magic on Princess Hedwig, and it can't be wrong. Princess Hedwig must have been intercepted by a house-elf."

Because of Hedwig's proud and arrogant personality, the elves in the castle usually call her Princess Hedwig, and Jemini always thinks this title is quite appropriate.

"House elf..." Jemini nodded suddenly.

Speaking of which, he almost forgot about it.

At this time, the only one who has the ability to stop Hedwig is Dobby, right?

"Okay, don't be angry." Jemini gently coaxed Hedwig: "Don't worry, I'll make that guy pay a price he can't bear. Be good, drink some medicine."

"Goo!"

"Don't peck me..."
