Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1123 Crowded Suitcase

   On the passenger plane to France, Herb was whispering to Daisy, who was seated next to him, discussing his son's wedding. Although the Andersons had expected this day to come and prepared for it, they felt a little uneasy when it actually arrived, because Albert's wedding seemed to be different from what they had imagined.

   They never attended a wizard's wedding.

  Thinking about it now, since Albert became a wizard, their family has been like a long, long dream.

  The plane started to land, and after a slight turbulence, it stopped smoothly on the airport runway.

  Herb took his wife, parents and daughter off the plane with the crowd, and a group of people dragged their small suitcases and walked towards the security check entrance.

   I remember that they used to go to King's Cross Station to pick up Albert, but now it's Albert who picks them up.

time flies!

   Herb looked up and looked around, trying to find the familiar figure in the crowd, but there were so many people around him that he couldn't find Albert at all.

   It wasn't until the crowd moved away from the security gate that they finally saw the familiar figure waving and smiling at them.

  Nia put down the suitcase, walked forward quickly, and spread her hands to give Albert a warm hug.

   "Why are you alone?" Daisy asked rather puzzled after stepping up to give her son a hug.

   "It's more convenient for me to be alone." When Albert finally hugged Herb, he smiled and said to everyone, "Come with me, Europe is not peaceful recently, this is not a good place to talk."

   "Where are we going, a hotel?" Nia asked puzzled.

   "No, it's not safe there, I'll take you to the safe house." Albert showed a little apology and motioned everyone to follow him.

   Everyone looked at each other and followed Albert silently. They had no opinion on where to live.

   After walking to a place where no one was there, Albert put the suitcase on the ground, opened it and motioned for them to enter the box.

  Nia walked into the suitcase first, and the others also walked into the suitcase one after another. This is not the first time they have been apparated into the suitcase.

   That's faster and safer.

   Almost in the blink of an eye, everyone saw the safe house Albert was talking about.

   Herb looked at the very old villa in front of him, turned his head and said to Albert, "It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time."

   "We live in a box." Nia reminded, it was the same way when I went to the Quidditch World Cup last time.

   "This is the safe house, and only the keeper can tell the secret, otherwise no one will be able to find it." Albert explained to several people.

   "The note just now..."

   "That was written by the secret keeper, expressing his willingness to tell you the secret." Albert pushed away from the house and turned his head to explain, "This is the most reliable protection magic at present."

   "The most reliable protection magic?" Herb muttered.

"Yes, it's very reliable. The disadvantage is that after casting the Loyalty Curse, it is equivalent to completely erasing this place from reality." Albert changed the way everyone can understand, "Only by getting the key to keep, that is, keeping it secret Only with the permission of people can we know the existence of this place and enter here.”

   "That is to say, if you want to enter here, you need to find a secret keeper?"

"right."

   "What if the two secretaries keep each other secret?" Nia asked suddenly.

   "Then no one can find them." Albert said with a smile, "Of course, this place is already half deserted, and we only need to rely on the protective magic here."

   As he spoke, Albert opened the suitcase on the ground and made a gesture of invitation.

  They all went into suitcases, and the environment inside was very nice.

  In the afternoon, Isobel also came over, stayed with Albert's family all afternoon, chatted about the current situation of the British magic world, and mentioned some things that should be paid special attention to.

   "That is to say, that demon called the Mysterious Man has come back to life?" Herb really had a hard time understanding that wizards could actually bring dead people back to life.

   But Luke quickly accepted it. He had also lived in the magic world and knew about the mysterious man.

   "The British wizarding world is at war, so we decided to choose France as the location."

   "War?"

   "Although it sounds a bit exaggerated, the current situation is indeed not optimistic." Albert said apologetically, "For safety, I can only stay here temporarily. Mrs. McDougal will also come to France the day after tomorrow at the latest."

   "Do you really need our help with the wedding?" Herb asked Albert while enjoying the fruit after dinner.

  Herb and Daisy are very embarrassed to give the son's wedding to Mrs. McDougal.

   "You don't need to worry about the wedding, I will take care of it." Albert saw the two people's thoughts and comforted him.

   "After getting married, do you plan to go back to England?"

   "Well, go back."

   "Is your new home ready?"

   "Ready, also protected by the Fidelity Curse, very safe." Albert said.

"Actually, you are still young, so there is no need to risk your bright future." Daisy was silent for a moment, then said suddenly, "I still think you should leave England temporarily, leave Europe and find a safe place to live temporarily, and wait for the war here." Go back after it's over?"

   "We are safe in the UK." Albert comforted, "And, your son is actually very powerful."

"Okay, Albert has grown up, he has his own ideas, we shouldn't interfere with his decision." Herb stopped Daisy who wanted to say something, patted Albert on the shoulder and said: "You can do whatever you want, but you have to remember that after you get married, you are not alone."

  …

  The next day, Albert secretly returned to England and brought Katrina and Mrs. McDougal to France. The suitcase suddenly became crowded, and Albert never thought that there would be so many people living here.

   Fortunately, he has temporarily vacated the laboratory with the house elves, and temporarily converted most of the rooms into guest rooms, barely able to accommodate everyone temporarily.

  After the parents of both sides met, a miraculous thing happened. They were all surprised to find that they knew nothing about Albert and Isobel's wedding, and they didn't even know who was helping to prepare for the wedding.

   Meanwhile, Mr. Mogg came and told them about the wedding, and brought Nia and Katrina's dresses by the way.

   "Thank you, Mogg." Mrs. McDougal said with a complicated expression.

   "You're welcome, I really wanted to be their witness, but unfortunately I didn't." Mogg changed the subject with a smile.

   "Has the wedding been prepared?" Herb hesitated for a moment and asked, "The cost..."

"Yes, it's ready. As for the fee, Albert has already paid. In fact, it doesn't cost much. Many of Albert's old friends took the initiative to celebrate." Mogg said with a smile: "The biggest problem at present is actually Screen the guests to avoid weird guys getting in the way of the wedding."

   "There is no problem in this regard." Albert said, "I was ready very early."

   "Then you take them to the manor tomorrow to see if there are any other problems."

Mogg came and went quickly, which made the Anderson family a little confused, but they could all see that Mr. Mogg had a very close relationship with Albert, and it was definitely not just what Mrs. McDougal said. Relatives, otherwise Albert would not have been entrusted with the important task of handling the wedding.

  In these years, Albert's changes also made them feel a little strange.

  In fact, both Mrs. McDougal and the Anderson family have the illusion that they are actually here to attend the wedding.

   In the next few days, Albert also became busy. He first posted wrong information on the silver card, and quietly visited Scrimgeour to discuss the plan to ambush the Death Eaters.

During Albert's stay in France, some changes took place in the British wizarding world, perhaps stimulated by Burns' murder. Most of the British wizards were biased towards Scrimgeour, hoping that the hardline Auror The chief of staff can lead everyone through difficult times.

  Scremgeour is also very concerned about this operation. He intends to use this opportunity to completely establish his position and strengthen people's confidence in the Ministry of Magic.

  While Albert was busy with the wedding, the Andersons and Mrs. McDougal in the safe house actually reached a proposal that Isobel should have a child as soon as possible.

  Nia and Katrina are discussing beauty potions. They believe that Muggle and wizard beauty methods should be combined to research ways to better maintain their appearance and figure.

   "Albert went out again?" Daisy looked at Isobel who was sitting down with an iced watermelon, and asked tentatively.

   "He said he was going back to England to handle the wedding." Isobel didn't deny it.

"Albert has been a very assertive child since a long time ago, and it is very reassuring for us, but the decisions he makes are usually not easily changed." Daisy grabbed Isobel's hand and said softly, "I I hope you can help us watch him more, and don't let him do those risky things."

   "I will." Isobel said.

   "After you get married, you can go to Hawaii for vacation first." Herb suggested.

   "I'm afraid not." Isobel explained, "The LeMays don't have much time. With Albert's personality, he will probably stay with them to complete the last journey of their lives."

   "As long as you don't go back to England, I don't think it's a problem." Daisy and Mrs. McDougal exchanged glances and continued, "There is one more thing, I hope you don't get angry, we all hope that you can have a child as soon as possible."

   "This matter... Albert has discussed it with me." Isobel gradually lowered his voice, "We will not deliberately..."
