Chapter 768 The Boggart in the Box
"Who sent you a prank package again?"
Why do you say again?
It is not the first time Albert has encountered this situation.
Lee Jordan looked at the trembling package in front of him with great interest, wondering what was inside the package.
"Do you want to take it apart and see what's inside?" Fred suddenly became interested.
"Mrs. Pince is over there." George frowned and reminded: "Do you want to be kicked out of the library that much?"
"Didn't you say, is there another letter?" Albert asked Kenneth.
"Yes, there is another letter, here it is." Kenneth handed the envelope to Albert across the table.
"Wait a moment, let me read the contents of the letter first."
Albert took the letter, turned it over and glanced at the sender's name, then stood up and walked to a remote corner near the window
The sender was actually: Mundungus Fletcher.
Mundungus?
Albert was a little surprised that Mr. Thief would suddenly send him a package. He should not have purchased anything from the other party recently.
"Could it be..."
Albert thought for a moment and guessed a possibility.
Mundungus Fletcher got him the Boggart and mailed it directly to him in a package.
It's just that this possibility should not be high.
After all, Albert hasn't paid Garen yet, and he doesn't believe that cunning people like Mundungus Fletcher are willing to do business at a loss.
Albert opened the envelope, glanced at the contents of the letter, and his expression became very strange. He really guessed it. There was really a Boggart in the package.
Albert realized that he had underestimated Mundungus's cunning a bit. This guy actually sent him something before he paid him.
This is clearly a strong buy and sell, and there is an asking price of fifty galleons.
Having said that, he wasn't worried that Albert would find an excuse to just take away the Galleons?
For example, only received the letter, did not receive the package and so on.
Or, the package was detained by the school.
Perhaps, in the eyes of Mundungus, that is the only Boggart that no one wants, even if Albert repudiates, there is no loss.
What Albert didn't know was that the Boggart sent to him was actually found by Mundungus Fletcher in a certain cabinet at home.
So, even if Albert doesn't pay, he has nothing to lose. Moreover, Mundungus doesn't think that Albert will deliberately renege on his debts.
Albert did not intend to renege on his debt, but he did not intend to pay Mundungus the price either.
Fifty Galleons?
Is this killing him as a fat sheep?
Anyway, Albert was only going to pay 10 Galleons.
Pay again next time you go to Hogsmeade.
If Mundungus is unwilling to accept the price, he can return the product directly. As for the Boggart, Albert plans to use it first, and he won't suffer anyway.
A faint flame suddenly ignited on the letter paper, burning the envelope and letter paper into a pile of ashes in the blink of an eye, and drifting away with a gust of wind.
Albert looked away from the window, turned his head and said to the people over there: "Don't open that package here."
However, it seems to be too late.
I don’t know who opened the package. Inside the package was a small wooden box with a small lock on it. It seemed to trap the scary monster in the wooden box, but Fred had already used the unlocking spell to open the small lock.
As soon as the lock was opened, the wooden box lid was suddenly knocked open by a force, and there was a loud cracking sound in the library.
Then, Albert saw himself suddenly appearing on the long table, startling everyone nearby.
I don't know if I didn't react, or I wanted to hear what the Boggart-turned-Albert would say. The library was suddenly terribly quiet, as if he had stopped breathing.
"Sorry, I've been lying to you all this time."
Albert, who was standing on the table, bent down in a weird way, looking down at Fred, who was full of astonishment, "I never planned to joke about the store with you, and I don't have so many Galleons wasted on that boring on things..."
Everyone stared at this scene dumbfounded, feeling both weird and interesting.
The whispers around gradually increased, and some malicious guys speculated whether it was o. w. The pressure of the Ls exam was too great, and it drove the geniuses of Hogwarts crazy.
Some students moved back and forth between the two Alberts with shocked eyes. They hadn't figured out what was going on at all.
Why are there two Alberts?
Albert standing on the table was still launching a verbal offensive towards Fred, and his head kept approaching Fred. When Fred was forced to collapse from the chair, Albert on the table didn't know Whether it was because of an unstable center of gravity, or because he stepped on the ground, the whole person fell off the table anyway.
This funny scene once again made everyone dumbfounded.
"are you OK!"
Ron was taken aback by the sound of Albert falling off the table. Just as he was about to give his hand, he heard a crackling sound in his ear.
Under everyone's shocked eyes, Albert turned into a huge spider. This spider monster was a full six feet tall and covered in hairs. It scared everyone around to retreat in horror.
Even Harry, who has always been known for his bravery, was stunned, and Hermione almost tripped over a chair when he stepped back.
However, the most terrified person is Ron who is looked down by the big spider. His face was pale, and he looked like he might faint at any moment.
Actually, it would be happier if you could pass out directly.
The big spider had already rushed towards Ron, looking like it was attacking him.
"ah!"
Ron's screams resounded throughout the library.
The moment Ron was thrown on the table by the big spider, Ron almost went into shock.
But he still didn't faint, he could only watch the clacking pincers approaching him with horror on his face, enduring the fear that he might be torn to pieces by the big spider at any time.
Screams sounded one after another, and the students who didn't know were frightened by this scene.
When Mrs. Pince came in a hurry, she happened to see the big spider attacking Ron, and she was also taken aback. When she pulled out her wand and was about to save the student from the big spider's mouth, someone beat her moves faster.
"Hi, this way."
Albert threw the book towards the big spider first, and while successfully attracting the big spider's attention, he came in front of it.
The next second, the big spider disappeared in full view, replaced by a book floating in mid-air.
"Funny funny!"
The "Harry Potter" ate himself up, and then was put back into the wooden box by Albert.
The crisis was lifted in this way.
No one is harmed by it.
Everyone was a little confused, and didn't figure out what was going on now.
However, they quickly came to their senses, especially when they heard Albert say something funny, they realized that Albert and that big spider just now were actually Boggarts?
"Sorry, someone mailed me a Boggart, and the package was opened."
Albert grabbed the wooden box that was still shaking slightly, and hurriedly left the library before Mrs. Pince got angry at him.
After Mrs. Pince came back to her senses, her wrinkled face was distorted with anger. She screamed angrily, "What the **** are you doing!"
Fred, George, and Lee Jordan all look away, pretending to be innocent.
"Disturb the order of the library, get out, get out, get out!"
Mrs. Pince raised her wand and knocked everyone's backpacks, textbooks, and inkwells on the heads violently, driving everyone out of the library.
Even pretending to be innocent is useless.
"Damn... Albert actually ran away first without reminding him."
Everyone put their hands on the back of their heads and hurried out of the library, those things were still chasing their heads.
"Who told you to open the package." George complained.
"Aren't you curious yourself?" Fred and George almost wrestled.
"Speaking of which, what you're afraid of is really interesting." Kenneth Toller felt that what Fred was afraid of was very interesting, but he didn't expect that Boggart would turn into Albert.
"Shut up, it's your fault for bringing that package to the library."
The three glared at Kenneth Toller in unison, as if it was all his fault.
"Who told you to open it yourself." Kenneth was very unconvinced, and stared back angrily. It's a pity that he can't beat three of them by himself.
"Which one of you will deal with those annoying things behind your back first." Angelina couldn't help complaining, they simply suffered an indiscriminate disaster.
When several people passed the corner, they saw Albert holding the wooden box and raising his wand. All the things chasing them stopped and slowly fell to the ground.
"Speaking of which, who did you offend, why would someone send you a Boggart." Shanna asked while tidying up the things on the ground.
After Kenneth left, Albert whispered, "I didn't offend anyone. I asked someone to buy it."
"Did someone buy it?"
Everyone stared at Albert dumbfounded. They didn't expect to find someone to buy Boggarts. It's been a long time.
"Yeah, I didn't expect the other party to send it directly, and I haven't paid Galleon yet."
"What are you buying this for?"
"I'm going to use it for training." Albert explained helplessly, "How to deal with Boggarts, it just so happens that this is also a popular practice for the o.w.Ls exam, so I plan to use it as a practice for the next party , by the way, you can use it to train the Patronus Charm."
"Remember to keep it secret, don't spread it to outsiders." Albert reminded
"knew."
Everyone nodded in unison, and they also understood how much Albert had paid for the Defense Association.
