v5 Chapter 87： Rita's intelligence

Latest website: Gringotts wants William to be a shopper, but he is reluctant to take out good things.

Goblins are stingy, in their values:

You only have the right to use the things you sell. After the person dies, they must be returned and cannot be given away.

Therefore, good things like Gryffindor swords must not be taken out.

After taking out a few treasures, there are more silver candlesticks, goblets, and even silver tableware from the fifteenth century.

What does William want this thing, a candle with a silver candlestick?

Sir, times have changed!

Will William's house only use electricity? Aren't electric lights better than wax paper? Isn't heating more comfortable than a fireplace?

There are also silver plates, which normal people use this kind of thing at home?

William said he prefers china.

This kind of thing with little value, but it looks very ostentatious, is attractive to those wizards, but William has no idea at all.

He only bought some weapons, armor, and some jewelry and jewelry so beautiful that Hermione couldn't take her eyes off.

A million Galleons were paid for it.

This is completely unimaginable for normal wizards, but it is simple for William.

Anyway, it's not your own money, so you don't feel bad when you spend it.

The goblin still owes more than three million... William decided to take it slowly.

Those good things... just have to be drained a little bit.

You don't need a lot of things like Garen. After refining the magic stone, you won't have much gold... Magic items are more important.

After leaving Gringotts, William and Hermione prepare to pick up their gowns.

There will be a Christmas ball during the Triwizard Tournament, and the school has notified you to bring your own dress.

Who knows that the entrance of Gringotts is already surrounded by wizard reporters.

I don't know who sent the wind, Stark and Granger are here.

"Mr. Stark, what do you think of the Ministry of Magic press conference this morning?"

"Mr. Stark, why are you absent? Are you dissatisfied with Minister Fudge?"

"Miss Granger, have the Ministry of Magic invited you, are they dissatisfied with witches?"

"..."

It sounds like an old boxer, the kind of superb boxing.

Neither William nor Hermione spoke.

Last time I answered a reporter's question casually at the camp, saying:

The attackers were the Death Eaters who escaped trial.

The next day, the newspapers spread a rumor: Mr. Stark believed that there was a big mistake at the Ministry of Magic, and that many Death Eaters were deliberately let go.

"Have you been threatened by the Ministry of Magic without saying a word?" a reporter shouted.

"Don't be afraid, we are all your backers! If you have something to say, just tell us! We won't say it!"

William grabbed Hermione's arm and Apparate in full view.

No one cares about 'minors can't use magic outside of school'.

The two have done something that everyone has deliberately ignored.

If you really want to talk like this, should you kill the lake monster or save the kidnapped wizard?

Everyone is a little excited, just take pictures, and then go back and write the manuscript:

Shock! The Ministry of Magic forced Stark to shut up.

Not a word! Stark and Granger may have been dissatisfied with Minister Fudge early on.

William appeared on the corner, and Hermione suddenly reached over his shoulder and picked up a beetle.

The beetle gave a flattering expression and kept nodding.

"Let's go, find a place where no one is." William glanced at Rita and Apparated again.

...

...

The Leaky Cauldron, in a room.

The three sat down at the table.

"How about that, is my report okay?" Rita tugged at her crocodile leather bag.

"Didn't I say it? You are not allowed to write about me and Hermione." William said coldly.

"But... the whole incident can't get around you two at all.

Besides, most of what I write is factual, and only a small part is artistically processed. "

Rita stared at William, straightened her curly hair, and took out the parchment and quill from the alligator handbag.

But seeing William's face, he put it on the table again, raised his hand and surrendered:

"If I don't write it, someone will distort the report, and see... tomorrow morning, the newspapers will get the news that Fudge and you two are not getting along.

I'm sure you won't let me report the truth, I can be regarded as a clear stream in the industry..."

"Thank you so much, it's time to give you a Pulitzer Prize." William sneered.

"How's the Ministry of Magic?" Hermione poured a cup of tea for William and herself.

"It's a mess."

Seeing that Hermione hadn't poured herself, Rita pouted and did it herself.

She actually prefers to drink fire whisky.

"For a whole week, people kept sending roaring letters. Complaining about the safety of the World Cup.

Hope the Ministry of Magic will compensate them for their damaged property. "

Rita smiled wickedly: "I also wrote to say that I lost something, not much, just a dozen pages of wish list."

"If you two need anything, just place an order, maybe the Ministry of Magic will compensate you.

Mundungus Fletch filed a claim that he lost his tent with twelve bedrooms and a Jacuzzi..."

Neither William nor Hermione spoke, but invariably raised their glasses and took a sip of tea.

His movements and demeanor were surprisingly consistent, and he almost snorted disdainfully in his nose.

How much do you two know each other to make the same move?

Rita, who was accidentally stuffed with dog food, couldn't help but said sourly:

"Okay, Mr. Duo Cai Duo Yi and Miss Yi Yi Jinren, there is no shortage of Jia Long..."

Her arm was on William's shoulder, and her mouth was close to kissing his face.

She blew a breath of heat, and said affectionately: "Tell me a little bit, how much Galleon did you earn this World Cup?"

A quill and parchment, again floating in the air.

Hermione's wand waved, and they burst into flames.

Rita immediately restrained her smile and closed her mouth.

After dealing with each other for such a long time, she can be considered to estimate the bottom line of William and Hermione.

Some were insignificant, or roughly true, and the two of them didn't mind Rita reporting.

For example, at that time, she was arguing with the United States. She wrote a fairly informative report in Venice, and she was not warned.

But if it is made up, or inquires about privacy, both of them will be angry.

"Has there been anything else weird at the Ministry of Magic?" William asked, putting down his glass.

"Yes... Neither Crouch nor Bagman attended today's press conference." Rita hurriedly took out the press conference photos from her bag.

"Crouch said he was sick..."

"Sick?" William frowned.

On the night of the kidnapping, he saw Crouch's name appear on the map with his own eyes.

But after rushing in, a fire broke out, and he was busy saving people, and finally went to search, but did not see Crouch.

Come to think of it... he should have escaped while the chaos. After all, he was caught by the Death Eaters, and his face was really embarrassing.

At this point, it was probably pretending to be sick.

"What happened to Ludo?" Hermione asked curiously.

"He's sick too." Rita scoffed:

"But it must be fake, he is an old liar, if he has something to do with you, be sure to stay away.

You don't know him, this World Cup..."

"I owe the goblin two hundred and fifty thousand Galleons," said Hermione. "And repay it with the leprechaun's gold."

"...Well, the well-informed lady already knows." Rita was a little disappointed.

"Any more interesting information?" Hermione grinned. "Otherwise we wouldn't pay."

Always relying on the beetle as a threat is not too reliable, and it is easy to accumulate resentment.

Since William made Rita work hard to inquire about the information, he will also pay the salary as appropriate.

Rita thought for a while and said, "The matter of the Triwizard Tournament being held at Hogwarts..."

"understood."

"...Mad-Eye Moody becomes your Defence Against the Dark Arts professor."

"I heard Professor McGonagall mention it."

"Then..." Rita searched her stomach, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Bagman was beaten."

"Huh?" William raised his head.

Rita was refreshed, and immediately said: "He actually owes money not only to the goblin, but also to secretly sitting in the house owes a lot of money to wizards."

"Someone broke into his house and tried to force him to pay back the money..." Rita gloated:

"The yard was bombed, and eventually the Ministry of Magic arrived, but the attackers were not caught.

According to Bagman, there may also be goblins involved. "

William narrowed his eyes. This information is really nothing.

He owes so much money and wants to be an old man. Being chased is a normal thing.

William even suspected that it was Ludo who directed and acted... The purpose was for the Auror to protect him.

But like Rita said... Ludo deserves no sympathy.
