Hogwarts on the tip of the tongue

England, Devon.

Along the Otter River, there is a relatively remote hilly river area.

British government records list three villages in the area: St. Mary's, Otterton and St. Catchpole.

However, according to the Wizarding Report of the British Ministry of Magic, there is also a newly formed magical residential area here - the Quibble Village built around the headquarters of "The Quibbler" United Magazine Publishing House. According to the latest figures, there are nearly a hundred people here. A magical family.

The "household registration" of the Weasley family and Digory family who originally lived nearby finally changed from the description of "next to a Muggle village".

At 05:30 in the morning, Rita Skeeter suddenly woke up.

She seemed to have returned to the darkness and powerlessness she had experienced in that suffocating net a few months ago.

Rita lay motionless in the employee dormitory assigned by Tianming Group. Slowly, the tasks she had to complete today began to flash repeatedly in every cell of her mind. No matter how much she wanted to immerse herself in sleep, those tasks became increasingly clear. The fear and confusion always grabbed her back in the next second.

She couldn't take it anymore.

Rita jumped out of bed and fumbled to put on her glasses.

The unknown house elf had ironed her clothes for today.

This bright green professional suit, expected to be released in a few months, was once Rita's most anticipated style.

But when it appeared in front of her at a completely incredible speed, the longing in her heart quickly turned into trembling in a few seconds.

There is no concept of gold Galleons in the Tianming Group and the Foundation. The meaning of gold galleons in the organization is no different from potatoes, gravel, or fresh water. It is just something that everyone can apply for as needed at any time during the process of completing the task. A nearly unlimited resource.

When Rita visited the Gringotts vaults in her second month on the job, her values ​​were shattered.

She abandoned her original jewel-encrusted glasses and replaced them with light brown glasses that better suited her face shape.

Because only in this way did Rita Skeeter feel like she was herself and not an underground agent of some dark organization on a mission.

Rita Skeeter simply washed up, dressed neatly, and walked carefully through the room to the landing outside the door - she was not the only one in the staff dormitory, there were also two witches in training at the same time. , but Rita feels they are more like her regulators.

She walked quietly down the stairs, passed the rooms of the other two witches, and came to the living room below.

She hoped to calm down and think carefully. If she guessed correctly, this might be her only chance to escape.

However, Rita's hopes were clearly dashed - she wasn't the only one to get up early today.

When she walked to the door, she heard a low voice coming from behind the door.

She opened the door and saw Mr. "The Hanged Man", Mr. "The Hermit", Douglas the Goblin, and the young witch named Tonks who was at the same time as her, all sitting at the long table, as if waiting for her. Similar.Everyone was neatly dressed except Mr. Hermit, who was wearing a somewhat mismatched yellow and white trimmed dressing gown - this was not surprising, Rita Skeeter rarely saw him in her mind. Seriously worn clothes.

Noticing Rita entering the room, Xenophilius Lovegood heaved a sigh of relief and quickly stood up.

"Breakfast first," he said, drawing his wand and hurrying towards the stove.

"B-B-Good morning, Rita."

Tonks yawned. She was a new Auror of the Ministry of Magic and a rookie of the Foundation at the same time as Rita.

But the most special thing is that she is also a natural metamorphmagus - as long as Tonks wants, she can change her face shape and hair color at will.Of course, Rita is not envious, because she is also an Animagus herself, and a rare insect type.

Tonks' hair was blond and curled this morning.

"Did you sleep well? Rita - you are the protagonist today."

"It's good." Rita tried to look relaxed.

"I haven't slept all night."

said Tonks, letting out another big, shuddering yawn.

"You come here and sit down first. The task I received is to be responsible for your safety from last night to when you wake up today. Now that you are awake, I can finally go to rest..."

She pulled out a chair, knocking over a chair next to it.
