As Ron had expected, the guy hadn't been on any adventures at all. And even more surprising, he hadn't stolen anyone's experience, but had created it entirely.

This is quite a talent... It looks like he really went there. I thought he was referring to someone's story, but he didn't even do that. Even Lockhart appreciated his talent.

In the past two years, he has been living a leisurely life relying on the fund's money. He was originally a rogue, but after seeing the notice of this fund, he seemed to think of defrauding the money. Then he came up with the idea of ​​writing an adventure story, and after writing it, he prepared the materials required for the selection, and passed the interview by acting decently. Although he knew that there would be penalties for abuse in the contract, when he passed our interview, he obviously believed that he would never be exposed.

In fact, everyone thought he was suspicious during the interview, but after the last few people interviewed, Rita conducted a simple background check. Everyone thought, "What kind of guy is this?" However, his proposal was indeed very interesting, and Lockhart himself was a loser in the past, so he didn't pursue the applicant's past. In addition, Lucius said that Ron thought this person was interesting, so he decided to let him pass. If he violated the rules, he would be punished, so it should be no problem. If he can't pay it back, I will make up for the loss, so he passed the review smoothly.

Now he was faced with the choice of whether to return the money immediately, or go to Azkaban, or toil as a servant of the Malfoy family until the debt was paid. By the way, Leta had investigated his past victims and other debts, and all the guilt and compensation were almost piling up, and he was saying with a frustrated look on his face: "I will work like a carriage horse..."

Investigations revealed that he had never been to school. However, it was surprising that he had such literary talent. He seemed smart. However, he was rotten inside. Although he was rotten, he was not cruel. Rather, he was a scoundrel who exploited the weaknesses of others to make money. Although he had never been to school, he learned to write, memorized some complex words, and developed an imagination in order to commit fraud.

However, before applying for the fund, he accidentally angered a gang leader in Nocturne (apparently an old acquaintance of his), and the leader's daughter was angered by him. If she was found out, she would definitely be betrayed. So he tried his best to find enough funds before things calmed down, so he applied for the fund after seeing the recruitment information. If everything goes well, he can pretend to go on an adventure, live in seclusion for a few years, and then publish adventure novels. If it sells well, he can use the money to continue his secluded life. It seems that he is not completely corrupt, so Lucius is happy to be able to use such a little rogue and bring him to the new prison house.

He was immediately forced to work like a coach-horse. Indeed, he was a talented writer. Incidentally, the adventure was published in the Muggle world as a fantasy novel and sold well. The funds defrauded were soon repaid, but due to the added penalties, they are still being repaid. However, as Leta investigated further, she discovered new outstanding debts and arrears from the gambling house, as well as the lawyers' fees incurred to sort out these debts, and huge debts continued to accumulate every day.

At the same time, Lucius also went to find the Nocturne powerhouse (of course, an old acquaintance) that he had angered, and mentioned that this guy had literary talent and could be used as the next Lockhart, so he suggested using money to solve the problem. When he went, he found that the lady had found a good man, her pain was healed, and she became happy. So Lucius decided that instead of betraying her, it would be better to let him continue writing and make money. Therefore, a settlement was finally reached, with his future writing income as compensation.

Then, upon hearing the news, he thanked Lucius with tears in his eyes. However, unlike Lockhart, he had a huge debt and was afraid that he would be used by the Malfoy family for the rest of his life... However, it seemed that when he wanted to go out, he had to obtain permission in advance and be accompanied by a strong bodyguard, so that he could be seen at a glance as the protector of the Malfoy family. But if he went out, he would have to pay for the bodyguards, and his debts would accumulate even more. But if he didn't do this, he would be in danger of his life. The strong men of Nocturne had been unable to find him, so they were once full of blood and even offered a huge reward in secret. Although the reward had been withdrawn, it seemed that some people still didn't know that the danger to their lives still existed. Moreover, the boss had withdrawn the spearhead, solved the problem with money, and ordered him not to act rashly, but among some radical subordinates, there were still people who claimed that they would kill him if they found him, so he was advised to try not to go out. As a result, he didn't go out at all and voluntarily lived a life of imprisonment and writing. If the money he cheated from the fund was used up and he had to go out to work, he would have died long ago. There was really nothing he could do.

...Yes, Lockhart has completely reformed and is busy with publicity activities and legitimate work. He really needs a new writer... There is one less scoundrel on the street, and people can live in peace. Those who were deceived by him, those who can't get their money back, and the girls who were hurt will also be compensated. And if he doesn't stay at the Malfoy's house, he will definitely die once he leaves, so why not make good use of it before he dies? Ron's ideas are really not to be underestimated!

Oh, how pitiful. What a fool?

Huh? Have I become a dirty adult too?

By the way, after the fund is paid, you are required to report honestly. Although there may be no results, since this is a fund for young people, there is no requirement for results. Therefore, it doesn't matter if there are no results, just report the failure truthfully. It is clearly stated in the contract that there will be penalties if the funds are used for purposes other than the purpose. During the research process, if you deviate from the original plan and the funds are used for other purposes, you will be granted permission as long as you reapply truthfully.

However, since this fund was founded by the former swindler Lockhart, he had already taken these circumstances into account. Therefore, if someone defrauded the fund's money, there would be a very heavy penalty.

After accepting Ron's suggestion, Lucius immediately held a competition hosted by the publishing house. The prize money and additional prizes were pretty good. Lucius's publishing house was also well-known in the Muggle world, so the writer discovery competition hosted by the magical publishing house attracted a large number of writers eager to become famous to sign up, which made him very happy. Rita is now also a legitimate editor, actively supporting new writers and working hard to collect information for writers.

Lucius not only discovered many talented and legitimate writers, but also got a new useful writer who could continue to be restrained, and his heart was filled with joy.

Ron is the best! He was so happy that he couldn't stop laughing...
