Chapter 435：

"Merry Christmas, Percy." Ginny hurriedly stood up and said, then ran to her room.

…

Chapter 459 Stardust flying out of the window

After a while, screams came from upstairs.

Ginny ran down quickly, holding a tightly wrapped broom-shaped object.

Ron said in disbelief: "Did you buy her a broomstick?"

"Percy, can I open it?" Ginny asked eagerly.

Of course Percy doesn't mind.

Don't underestimate the speed at which a woman unpacks a courier. In just a few seconds, the paper wrapped around the broomstick is torn and flying everywhere.

Inside is a brand new Nimbus 2000, and you can still smell the maintenance oil on it.

Ron's eyes widened.

Is Percy so rich?

Although it is not the latest Nimbus 2001, it is still not cheap.

Ginny was very happy, so she didn't have to be afraid of Slytherin's trident tactics.

Harry was happy for her too.

Percy came back, invited by Arthur.

Arthur knocked on the door of his office and invited his son to go back for the holiday.

George and Fred made faces at Percy.

Charlie went up to hug his brother, and Percy sat next to Fleur.

Sirius and Lupine sat down, looking across the stars badges they wore.

There seems to be an awkward atmosphere.

Mrs. Weasley took off Mr. Weasley's coat.

Mr. Weasley said: "The department is still busy today, George and Fred."

He named the twins and said, "Don't forget to review your anti-curse hats."

After Percy sat down, Mrs. Weasley took a piece of noodles for him.

"Try this, your mother did a great job." Fleur pushed the gravy in front of Percy.

Ron, who was about to take a spoonful, was very resentful.

"I thought you would go back to France." Percy said unexpectedly.

Fleur glanced at Bill, and Percy understood.

When two people from the Ministry of Magic came to the table, it was inevitable that the topic would come to the Ministry of Magic.

Percy's position is the most important position in foreign relations, and he also knows a lot about foreign affairs.

Mr. Weasley finished the last bite of the marinade, scraped the sauce off the plate with bread, and put it into his mouth.

"The werewolf community has been re-expanded." Mr. Weasley said, "Their buildings are almost all left over from the last century."

"The Silverhand Fashion Building will expand it," Percy glanced at Mr. Weasley and said, "The Ministry of Magic will pay almost no money."

"Yes, Silver Hand fashion architecture," Mr. Weasley said dissatisfied, "Silver Hand has penetrated into almost the entire wizarding world."

"That's not infiltration!" Percy interrupted Mr. Weasley, "At least what they are doing is truly beneficial to the magical society."

The sound of the knife and fork scraping against the dinner plate was much quieter.

Charlie looked at his brother and then at his father.

Mrs. Weasley tugged at the corner of her husband's clothes pleadingly, and Mr. Weasley took a deep breath.

The two father and son almost got into a fight when they sat down to eat.

The two people did not continue talking.

Furong could also see that the relationship between father and son was tense, and the two father and son were on different sides.

Of course she was on Percy's side, but it made Bill suffer.

After the meal, they sat on the sofa.

The children went to open their gifts.

Ron repeatedly confirmed that he had indeed not received any gifts from his dear brothers.

He said dissatisfiedly to Harry: "I can't believe that none of them gave me a gift. Ginny even received Nimbus 2000."

George and Fred also gave Mrs. Weasley a great hat.

This left Mrs. Weasley confused about whose hat to wear.

Charlie received a Galleons from an owl. When he opened it, he found that there were five hundred Galleons inside.

He was surprised who gave it to him.

When I looked at it, it said that donations would be made to the dragon trainer who was injured in the Romanian fire dragon escape.

This made Ron very envious, and he felt that he could consider a career as a dragon trainer.

But it is a pity that he did not choose Care of Magical Zoology.

Ron's gift still included the sweater made by Mrs. Weasley, and even Harry also had it.

But Fleur didn't receive it, as it seemed that would be a waste of Mrs. Weasley's time.

Sirius complained to Lupine about how annoying that house elf Kreacher was.

"Percy, can we talk?" Lupine found Percy after giving Sirius a few perfunctory words.

Percy glanced at Mr. Weasley, nodded and said, "Okay."

They walked out of the door and came to the garden outside the Burrow.

The garden had trees growing around the base of the walls, overgrown weeds and overgrown turf, a large pond, and a swarm of goblins.

A goblin ran past Percy's feet and was kicked by him.

"Don't blame your father, Percy." Lupine said, "He just wanted to protect his family."

"John will never hurt us, you must know this." Percy glanced at Lupine and said with a straight face, "As a werewolf, you know John's talent better."

Lu Ping smiled bitterly, "Yeah, I just realized that as a werewolf, I shouldn't be like this."

He looked up at Percy, who was also his former student. He knew how good Percy was.

"The more I get to know him, the more I understand why you are willing to follow him," Lupine sighed. "I can't deny his charm."

"So I want to know, what is his real ambition?"

Lu Ping still couldn't help but ask.

The people of Qunxing Club are the group of people who know John best.

​This is very important to him.

"Ambition?" Percy thought for a moment and said calmly, "Is it important?"

Hearing this answer, Lu Ping was slightly stunned.

Percy continued: "He is a good friend, a good classmate, and someone worth following. Isn't that enough?"

Lu Ping was silent, obviously this was not the answer he wanted.

Percy looked back at the Burrow, which looked like an illegal building, and said calmly: "Dumbledore and John, there is no difference between them. The only difference is that John only wants to be good to his own people."

Compared with Dumbledore, John is like a human being. He has selfish motives and will give priority to his own people.

Unlike Dumbledore, he was selfless.

That’s why it makes people feel like a god.

Percy finished speaking and was about to leave. He was just coming back to spend Christmas, not to be interrogated in turn.

Lu Ping couldn't stay, and Furong was ready to leave.

Bill asked in confusion: "Where are you going?"

Fleur rolled her eyes at him, "Your mother doesn't welcome me, so of course I have to find another place to celebrate the festival."

She said it bluntly, and it should be said that her pride made her willing to accept it.

Bill was still about to explain when he saw Fleur also leaving the Burrow.

Both members of the Qunxing Club left.

Ginny ran down and the Nimbus 2000 never left her hand.

Harry and Ron went downstairs, Harry holding some old clothes.

He lived in Habitat for a while, and these old clothes were left over from that time.

When crossing a staircase, he lost his footing and almost fell.

The clothes fell off and a bottle containing black powder rolled out of his pocket.

The bottle rolled to Ginny's feet. She picked it up and asked doubtfully: "What is this?"

Harry picked up the clothes and was stunned when he saw the thing.

Lupine came back, saw the bottle, and said, "It seems to be some magic substance."

Ron muttered: "I don't remember such a thing in school."

As they discussed, Harry put the clothes on the sofa, preparing to take them to the Black Mansion in the evening.

He came over and took the bottle and said, "This is called stardust, a magic prop that can be used to detect if anyone is snooping."

"Oh." Ron lost interest when he heard the purpose of this thing.

The sky is getting dark and time passes quickly.

At dinner time, people who went out came back.

This time Fleur didn't come, which made Mrs. Weasley feel obviously better.

She hummed "A Pot of Fiery Love" and stirred the soup in the pot.

Ginny was very curious about the contents of the bottle and asked, "How to use it?"

Harry picked up the bottle and thought about how John would use it when he gave it to him.

Opening the bottle, he poured out a handful of stardust the size of a fingernail.

Spread out towards the surroundings.

I thought the stardust would fall to the ground, but instead I saw the stardust floating towards the window.

The flying stardust is as conspicuous as the stars in the night sky.

Ron came over and asked doubtfully: "Where is it going?"

Harry was also puzzled and said, "I don't know."

He suspected that the thing had been left for too long and had failed.

The three of them stood by the window, looking towards the trajectory that floated out.

As they watched, the stardust drifted into the garden outside the Burrow and clung to the tall weeds.

This scene fell into Harry's eyes, and he stared at the weeds.

Suddenly, the weeds moved.

Harry saw it, it was a wand pushing away the weeds.

"Someone is there." Harry just said.

Then he saw the wand shooting a magic spell towards the Burrow.
