Hogwarts: I'm really not the third Dark Lord

Chapter 167 The New School Year and Hogwarts Express

During the summer vacation, the first Duel Card World Finals was held in London.

Dueling card enthusiasts from all over the world gathered in Diagon Alley to start a battle between dragons and tigers.

In the end, to everyone's surprise, the championship was won by a wizard from Japan. Due to the huge advantage, Ron was unable to get started with the key card, and Ron regretted that he ended up in runner-up.

After watching the game in Diagon Alley, Jerry stayed in Ivan's shop for a while. During this time, Ivan and the others developed a good cooperative relationship with the Muggle government and obtained a large amount of precious magic from the latter. The cost of materials is only a few bottles of dragon blood and a pair of deformed lizards.

The latter has long been bred in large quantities by wizards, and their leather, which has the ability to change size at will, is used to make bags and wallets.

After these several pleasant cooperations, Muggles have begun to explore ways to awaken their superpowers.

Ace gave them a surprise regarding this matter.

Woods was practicing as a Knight of Truth at the Truth Society. Suddenly one day, a weak magic power began to appear in his body.

Ace naturally became very interested in this phenomenon and began to study it secretly.

According to his research results, it seems that people who have been in contact with magic sources such as wizards, magical creatures, and magic props for a long time are more likely to awaken the wizard constitution.

Woods hangs out with the wizards of the Truth Society every day, and John also carries a magic ring with him. In addition, the souls of these two people are relatively strong among Muggles, so they became the first people to awaken to magic.

With the arrival of subspace, there will be a large number of Muggle-born or mixed-blood wizards, and their Muggle family members will gradually awaken special abilities.

At that time, Jerry felt that he could produce a batch of props containing a large amount of magic power and specially used to accelerate the awakening of magic power, and provide them to the Muggle government.

During the summer vacation, Jerry also took time to visit Luna's house.

Luna's father, Xenophilius Lovegood, was a more neurotic guy than his daughter. He had marshmallow-like white hair hanging on his shoulders, the tassels on his hat hung straight to the front of his nose, and he was wearing an eggplant. The yellow robe is dazzling in color.

When Jerry saw him, he seemed to be worrying about something.

After asking, I learned that "The Quibbler" has been fabricating gossip about the Ministry of Magic and the Minister of Magic since its inception, attracting the attention of a large number of anti-Ministry and anti-government activists.

They are also loyal readers of The Quibbler.

With such a group of loyal readers, there is no problem in supporting this small magazine with only one editor-in-chief, and Xenophilius will not have the idea of ​​​​transferring shares.

But some time ago, I don’t know what kind of madness Fudge went.

It was clear that I had never cared about such a trivial matter before, but suddenly, with unprecedented efficiency, a "Publications Law" was passed.

Any publication for profit must be registered with the Ministry of Magic before being allowed to be distributed. Otherwise, it will be regarded as illegal publication. Not only will all illegal gains be confiscated, but also a fine ranging from one thousand to five thousand galleons will be imposed. fine.

One wonders what the consequences would be if a magazine like The Quibbler, which specialized in making rumors about the Ministry of Magic, registered with the Ministry of Magic.

By the time Jerry came to see him, "The Quibbler" had been on hiatus for half a year. If they couldn't find a good home, the two fathers and daughters would have no choice but to go drink the northwest wind.

Therefore, although Jerry looked young, Xenophilius did not dare to neglect him at all, let alone conceal anything.

joke!

The second-year student who could easily pull out thousands of galleons had a background he could not imagine at all.

Not even the famously wealthy Malfoy family dared to spend so much money.

Only a boss with this kind of background would dare to take over his family's mess!

Xenophilius thought so.

After hearing the cause and effect, Jerry was in trouble.

There is no such thing as the "Publications Law" in the original book!

What he wanted was a mouthpiece that could speak out in the magical world, not an underground workshop that could be shut down at any time.

Just when he was about to refuse, Jerry suddenly thought of it.

Ivan and the others seem to have a deep relationship in the Ministry of Magic, otherwise the dueling cards would not be sold around the world.

So can it work?

Thinking of this, Jerry left him Ivan's contact information and asked him to go to Ivan to discuss the specific cooperation content.

Not long after that, Sirius Black escaped from prison, and his profile picture was plastered everywhere.

Harry was also taken to Diagon Alley by Fudge. It seemed that he ran away from home after inflating his aunt and was found by Fudge on the Knight Bus.

With more and more people in Diagon Alley, the new semester has finally begun!

……

Looking at the magnificently decorated [Magic Board Game House] in front of him, Xenophilius subconsciously arranged his clothes.

He had naturally heard of Duel Cards, which was popular all over the world, but he never expected that it was actually an industry owned by that boy.

After learning that he was introduced by Jerry, Xenophilius was soon welcomed into Ivan's office.

What appeared in front of Xenophilius was a fat man with an unassuming appearance. His long-term hold on power gave him a unique majesty that no one dared to underestimate.

"Hmm...Xenophilius, right? That lord told me about you."

That adult?

Noticing this title, Xenophilius became even more reserved.

"Ah...yes, hello."

It seems to Ivan that it couldn't be easier to pass the Ministry of Magic's review. It only takes one sentence.

What he was more curious about was that it was easier and more cost-effective to start a new magazine from scratch than to acquire a small magazine like "The Quibbler."

Why is that gentleman obsessed with completing this acquisition?

"Why do you think that adult wants to help you?"

Ivan asked mercilessly with his hands crossed on his chin.

"Yes, in my opinion, this is not an acquisition, but an act of charity!"

"We have better targets than your Quibbler."

"For example, "Hogwarts Daily" and "Wizard's Talk"...the sales volume is much higher than that of "The Quibbler."

Xenophilius clenched his fists tremblingly.

This is blatant humiliation!

The other party's tone was lazy and playful, as if he was considering throwing a few bones to a wild dog that was wagging its tail in prayer.

He really wanted to reprimand the other party severely and then reject the transaction...

"Five thousand Galleons."

The man said lightly, as if what he was about to pay was not five thousand galleons, but five galleons.

"You...what did you say?"

"Tell me why the Lord chose you, and I will provide an initial investment of five thousand galleons. Your "The Quibbler" can continue to be run. I can even continue to let you be the editor-in-chief."

"..."

Xenophilius wanted to reprimand his opponent severely and then reject the deal...

But the other party gave too much!

"Maybe Jay...that adult has a good relationship with my daughter?"

Affected by Ivan, Xenophilius also changed his title and did not dare to call him by his first name.

"Your daughter?"

"Yes, her name is Luna." Xenophilius said hurriedly. "She is one grade below that adult. That adult took the initiative to find her and offered to buy our magazine..."

"Oh ho? Could it be that your daughter is very beautiful?"

Hearing this, Xenophilius opened his eyes in horror.

He could voluntarily abandon his dignity, but he definitely didn't want his daughter to be harmed.

Could it be that that guy is a playboy and just wants to play with his daughter?

She is only 12 years old!These beasts!

and many more!

He still knows his daughter very well.

Although Luna was always a little angel in his eyes, he also knew that his daughter's dress was obviously not the type that would interest a man.

"No," Xenophilius whispered, "Luna... is not very good-looking."

"Oh." Ivan responded lightly, not believing what he said, but making up his mind to investigate secretly.

"That's it, you can go."

Ivan picked up another document from the table, waved his hand casually, and drove Xenophilius out.

Until he left that beautiful office, Xenophilius was still in a dream.

No!

He wants to send a letter to his daughter.

Ask her about her relationship with that adult.

"Don't get too close to him!"

The man prayed to Merlin from the bottom of his heart.

……

At eleven o'clock in the morning, Jerry boarded the Hogwarts Express on time.

Erin seemed to want to say hello to her friends and left Jerry's side early.

Jerry walked through the crowded crowd, passed by the carriages full of cats, owls, and mice, and arrived at the rear of the train.

There are obviously a lot fewer people here.

When passing by a carriage, Jerry saw Irene.

She was sitting with Hermione and Penello, and they were arguing about something.

What a picture of hell!

Jerry shuddered, pretending not to notice, and quickened his pace.

"Brother Jerry! Here, here!"

When the little girl saw Jerry, she waved to him happily.

Jerry sighed and stopped.

Erin ran out and pulled him into the private room.

Jerry forced a smile: "Hey, everyone is here, what are we talking about?"

"Brother Jerry, do you know Blake?"

Irene blinked: "Sister Penello said that he was a crazy murderer who once killed dozens of Muggles with a spell."

"Maybe." Jerry said perfunctorily.

Hermione frowned and crossed her arms: "I checked the reports at the time. It is said that after Black killed those Muggles, instead of running away, he stood there and laughed until the Aurors took him away. I never tried to resist."

"That's suspicious, isn't it?"

"It is said that Black is Voldemort's loyal subordinate. After Voldemort disappears, the first thing he should do is to find his master, instead of running around or killing Muggles."

"..."

If the senior officials of the Ministry of Magic at the time had half the IQ of Hermione, they would not have caused this unjust, false and wrongful conviction.

But maybe they didn't care whether Black was wronged or not.

"You mean, Black is innocent?" Penelope looked at Hermione sarcastically.

Hermione shook her head: "I don't think he is innocent, but there must be some hidden secret that has not been discovered..."

"Maybe that's why he escaped from prison this time."

"Everyone said he was out to kill Harry Potter—"

"Then he escaped from prison ten years ago."

The two girls were chattering and arguing again, which made Jerry wholeheartedly agree with that sentence——

Three women are equivalent to a hundred ducks.

At this moment, the door was suddenly opened.

It was Percy, wearing the badge of student body president on his chest.

The badge was polished and shined brightly in the sunlight.

After seeing Penelo, his eyes lit up: "Penelo, maybe we should talk again."

At the same time, he deliberately puffed up his chest to make the badge more visible.

"I don't think there's anything to talk about, Weasley."

Penello said coldly: "I have nothing to say to you."

"you--"

Percy was furious, his eyes darting back and forth in the car, and finally focused on Jerry.

He pointed a finger at Jerry and gasped: "Look clearly! I am the president of the Boys' Student Union this year. I know you like this kid... So, you don't want his school life to become a mess, right?"

me!

Jerry never thought that one day he would be told classic lines by others.

This neon netizen also asks you to cool down.

"Unfortunately, I also have this thing." Penello smiled slightly and took out a badge that was exactly the same as Percy's from his pocket. "You don't want your younger siblings to be bullied in school, right?"

"!!!"

Percy stared at the badge with bull's eyes. After standing there for a long time, he stamped his feet and turned around to leave.

"Haha, using power for personal gain and committing fraud, are these our student union cadres? I'm really worried about the future of this school~"

Faced with Hermione's ridicule, Penello smiled softly: "If you don't like the student union, then join it, change it, and build a better Hogwarts instead of being weird on the side! If you are bright, Hogwarts Ci is not dark!”

"You..." Hermione was so angry at these righteous words that she couldn't even speak. She coughed repeatedly, and Irene hurriedly patted her back gently.

Sure enough, little angel Erin is the cutest!

At this moment, a ginger figure jumped out from under Hermione's feet. It seemed that it knew that its owner was being bullied. The cat purred and stared at Penello warily.

"No! Crookshanks!" Hermione exclaimed, and Penello's eyes lit up, "What a cute cat!"

He raised his hands without hesitation.

"Eh? Do you think it's cute too?"

Hermione froze for a moment.

"Of course, look at its short legs and eyes... it's so cute and cute."

Who do you think has short legs?

Crookshanks' eyes suddenly became sharp, but because his whole body was suppressed by Hermione, he could only make a dissatisfied grunt.

Seeing that the relationship between the two instantly changed from tense to like good sisters, Jerry didn't even react yet.

Are these plastic sisters?
