Professor of Pharmacy at Hogwarts

Chapter 98: It’s time to find help

Coo coo coo coo coo!

Seeing that Mundungus did not pay him the travel expenses, Horn barked several times unhappy, flew down on Mundungus, and pecked his cheek with his pointed beak.

Mundungus could no longer care about Horn's dissatisfaction. His fear of seeing Horn before and remembering Alexis, the great devil and biggest creditor, disappeared. He was shocked by what was said in the letter.

His location is very remote. A month ago, Mundungus heard that there was a shortage of tobacco here, so he came here to sell it. He has been in this inhospitable place for a full month.He knew nothing about the news outside.

After reading the content of the letter, Mundungus was a little angry with Alexis for a moment. If Alexis hadn't loaned him money when his Quidditch betting business collapsed, he would have become his A big creditor, he wouldn't come to this place where nothing matters.

If he hadn't come to this quiet place, he wouldn't have forgotten about Dumbledore.

Long before leaving London, he heard some rumors from special channels. He didn't pay attention to it at the time. Now that he thinks about it, he shouldn't have come to damn France at all!

Mundungus hammered the wall, annoyed.

……

In Alexis' view, Mundungus was just an option. He didn't trust Mundungus. If it weren't for Dumbledore's relationship, someone would have the guts to owe him more than 3 gold galleons and not repay him for several years. , Mundungus had already turned into pieces and appeared in the Atlantic Ocean.

Mundungus is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix. He hangs out in various black markets. He is greedy for money and is only interested in profit. He is a typical low-level person.

Alexis felt that he could even trade his soul to anyone who could afford it.

During the fight against Voldemort, Mundungus was mainly responsible for intelligence and messaging.

Although almost all members of the Order of the Phoenix distrusted him, even Professor McGonagall had to admit that Mundungus did his job very well.From beginning to end, he never betrayed Dumbledore.

This is a very strange person.

Dumbledore trusted him, that was Dumbledore's business, Alexis didn't trust him - at least she wouldn't put her treasure on him alone.

So after writing several more letters, Alexis got up and rushed to Hogsmeade.

……

Hogsmeade Village, Hog's Head Pub.

This is a weird bar. You turn out from the post office on Central Avenue and turn into a side road. Walk along the road and there is a small bar at the intersection.A tattered wooden sign hung from a rusty bracket on the door, depicting a severed pig's head, blood stains seeping through the white cloth wrapping it.

The owner of this bar has a bad temper. Customers who enter will face the risk of being kicked out. Maybe if you step left foot first instead of right foot, the bar owner will kick you out.

Whether you can stay for a drink depends on the boss's mood.

Alexis pushed the door open and walked in. There were not many people in the bar. An old man with a gray beard, a tall and thin figure, who looked almost like Dumbledore, raised his head and saw Alexis.

The old man's stern face immediately turned into a smile.He put down the rag in his hand, wiped his hands on his apron, and walked towards Alexis enthusiastically.

"Little Alexis! Oh! Welcome! Thank you Merlin for coming to visit me."

Alexis hugged the old man and smiled.

"Uncle Aberforth, how could I forget you."

Aberforth led Alexis to the bar, roughly pushed a guest aside, asked Alexis to sit down, and poured him a glass of wine himself.

The customer was chatting with his companion when he was suddenly pushed. He turned around and was about to get angry. After seeing that it was Aberforth, he dragged his companion away from the bar angrily.

Aberforth nodded with satisfaction, pushed the cup, and then complained

"I heard you came to Hogsmeade for the past two weeks, but you didn't even come to see me."

"It was quite busy at that time, so I suspected someone was trying to steal something."

Alexis explained with a smile.

Aberforth Dumbledore is the younger brother of Albus Dumbledore. The two broke up due to an accident. Although Aberforth still obeyed Albus's orders and even joined the Order of the Phoenix to fight against Voldemort, he accepted Albus' leader, but he actually has no respect for Albus at all.

"Let his great plans go to hell with him!"

These are Aberforth's exact words about his brother Albus.

Completely different from Albus Dumbledore. This Dumbledore is rude, helpless, doesn't like learning, likes to solve everything through duels, and has no overall perspective... It can be said that he and Albus Dumbledore are the same. Completely opposite sides.

When Alexis first met Aberforth in Hogsmeade and heard that he was a child adopted by Grindelwald, he almost drew a stick with his brother Albus Dumbledore - in fact, he actually did so .

Later, Alexis sneaked out to play and got drunk because of his first drink. He muttered a lot of bad things about Albus Dumbledore, and was accepted by Aberforth - at least Albus Dumbledore. Lexis thought so.

A few years later, during the war against Voldemort, he saw Aberforth's abilities with his own eyes. This unkempt, slovenly and rude old man possessed Albus Dumbledore's magical talent and was focused on it, but not so much. There were many things for him to worry about, so in Alexis' mind, Aberforth was a more powerful wizard than Albus.

Simply speaking of wizard duels.

"Uncle Aberforth, have you read the newspaper?"

Alexis asked in a low voice as she drank all the wine in her glass.

He didn't show an expression at the thick layer of grime on the bar.

Aberforth paused in wiping the cup and curled his lips, seemingly unhappy.

"Hey, little Alexis, you have no conscience," he said. "So you didn't come to visit me specifically."

Alexis smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

After he was brought to Hogwarts by Dumbledore, he spent countless days and nights missing Grindelwald and the sea breeze on Nurmengard Island. It was Aberforth who coaxed him to sleep and told him many rude things. Dirty "bedtime stories."

"I've seen it, don't worry." Aberforth stopped teasing Alexis.

"I told you, he always has some great plans, he always does. But he never thinks about his family. Yeah, he always does."

When talking about Dumbledore, Aberforth's tone was full of ridicule and disdain.

"Ah, the great Albus Dumbledore, he always showed his greatness to the world. In fact, he was a despicable villain."

"He never considered the feelings of his family."

"That guy, he has no family."

"So, little Alexis, you're worrying for nothing. You don't need to worry about him at all.
