  Chapter 1163 Mr. Bait

   "Damn, have you been targeted?"

  Kenneth stood by the window, stretched out his hand to open the gap in the curtains, and secretly observed the situation outside the street. Although he didn't see anyone wandering around his residence, he could feel that he was indeed being watched.

The recent luck is really bad, that stupid father not only sold the counterfeit goods and lost a lot of Galleons, but also sent "Zuo" to Azkaban Prison, and he helped Albert run a trip to Zuko's joke After entering the store, he felt like he was being watched by someone. Although Kenneth couldn't find anyone, his intuition in the gray area told him that he was indeed being watched by someone.

   This is by no means a good thing.

  But, why was he being targeted?

   Father's sake?

   No, Kenneth prefers to believe that it is because of Albert, because of the **** 10,000 reward.

  Somewhere, he felt that he was cheated by Albert.

   That's right, if it wasn't for the fact that there was a problem, how could Albert need to help deliver the goods to Zuko?

   Wouldn't it be the same to have Fred, George, or Lee Jordan deliver the goods?

  Damn it!

  Why didn’t I think of it at the beginning?

  He also signed a magic contract, even if he was caught, he couldn't reveal anything at all.

   Albert would not want to take the opportunity to kill himself!

   No, probably not.

  Probably toss him the trouble and see if he's trustworthy by the way.

  Thinking of this, Kenneth became even more depressed. In the beginning, he proposed to cooperate with Albert, and there is nothing wrong with making money together, but the old Toller not only refused, but also wanted to get the benefits of the black magic defense props from Albert.

  It feels ridiculous to think about it.

   Is that guy so easy to let others take advantage of?

   I don't even think about what happened to the group of Death Eaters who wanted to make trouble at the wedding.

  Old Tolle put himself in Azkaban and messed up his relationship with Albert.

  Otherwise, since they have a basis for cooperation at Hogwarts, even if they can’t get as much benefits as Fred, George and George, at least they won’t suffer losses, instead of signing a **** magic contract like this.

  Kenneth regretted how he believed his father's nonsense and made the situation what it is now.

   Now being targeted by people, he has no good solution. Now he can only find Albert for help through Fred, George and Lee Jordan, but those guys don't know where to hide recently.

  Should I not be left outside to attract firepower?

  The more Kenneth thought about it, the more something went wrong.

   "I can't stay here anymore, I have to find a place to avoid the limelight."

  He decided to discuss the matter with Fred, George and Lee Jordan at the next Ministry of Magic Defense Against the Dark Arts training.

When he simply packed up his things and was about to leave, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps on the street outside, and then the door was rudely knocked open. Before Kenneth Apparated, he saw several men with hideous faces and beards The scruffy man rushed into the house with his wand in hand, and shot a jinx directly at Kenneth, who was picking up his suitcase and was about to leave.

   "Damn it!"

After throwing out the suitcase, Kenneth pulled out his wand and used the oncoming curse under the iron armor spell grid, but he was still stumbled. Fortunately, the iron armor spell on the defensive bracelet helped him block it, otherwise his end might be It's no better than the cursed window next to it.

   "Damn it, I really got tricked."

  Kenneth greeted Albert and his family in his heart, and at the same time recognized one of the intruders.

  Kenneth used a red curse to force the three approaching people back, and immediately found a cover to hide, and roared at the sloppy man named Paul: "Damn Paul, what do you want to do?"

"Don't want to do anything? Someone wants to invite you to join us," the scruffy man named Paul grinned and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, "Little Tolle, I advise you not to resist and follow us obediently. Otherwise, don't blame me for not Look at old Toller."

   "Have any of you invited others to join like this?"

  Kenneth's face is very dark. If he didn't sign the magic contract, he would not be afraid to go with them. The worst case would be to join, but he can't do it now.

   "I don't think you will look at his face, that guy is still in Azkaban Prison."

   "Stop talking nonsense, I'll count to three, obediently follow us, otherwise don't blame us for being rude." The three quickly surrounded Kenneth's hiding place, ready to take down each other in one go.

   "You're welcome? How are you going to be rude?"

  Kenneth suddenly fired red sparks towards the window that was blown apart by the spell, trying to scare the three away and buy himself a chance to escape.

   "Damn, is this a trap?"

  Kenneth's actions undoubtedly succeeded in misjudging the three. The Ministry of Magic has used many methods to catch the dark wizard during this period.

   "Don't be silly, I bet he's just trying to scare us away."

   "No matter what, take the person away first."

  Paul lunged at Kenneth, trying to knock him down, only to be sent flying by a blocking spell.

   "Just don't kill me."

  Anyway, the order received was just to catch Kenneth. Since that guy is ignorant, it's better to let him suffer.

   As for the friendship with Old Tolle, how much Galleon is it worth?

  However, Kenneth is not bad either. He either dodged the evil curses of the three, or blocked them with the defensive props on his body.

  However, it took them a while to push Kenneth to a corner.

   At this moment, there was another rush of footsteps outside, followed by unfamiliar shouts.

   "Quick, quick, don't let them get away."

   A group of people are approaching here.

  The three wanted to kill Kenneth, but it was too late. Several spells had already been fired from the door, directly knocking the three of Paul to the ground.

   "It seems that our luck is not bad."

  Kingsley looked at the stunned Kenneth, and motioned to the people around him to take him away.

  Kenneth managed to regain his composure, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you..."

"Fred and George told me that you might be in trouble." Kingsley glanced at the unlucky guy who was about to act as the bait, and comforted him, "Don't worry, come here a few more times, everyone knows you are the bait After that, no one will come to trouble you again."

  Hearing this, the expression on Kenneth's face instantly collapsed.

   "Cooperate well with the Ministry of Magic, and we will appropriately commute your father's sentence."

Kingsley reached out and patted Kenneth on the shoulder, handed him a candy, and reminded: "This is a new product made by Fred and George recently. It is said that eating it can bring people luck. If you encounter this situation again, just eat it, and nothing will happen."

   "Thank them for their kindness for me." Kenneth took the candy and said through gritted teeth.

   "I will. Before that, I suggest you go back to the Ministry of Magic with us, at least it will be safer there."

  Kingsley rushed over with his people, and hurried back to the Ministry of Magic with a few downed wizards, preparing to get useful information from these people.

   As expected, the three basically knew nothing.

  They are all at the bottom of Knockturn Alley. They joined the mysterious people not long ago. It should be said that they became the minions of some Death Eaters. They were ordered to take Kenneth away.

  Kingsley reported the news to the Auror office immediately, but he felt that no one could be caught there. After all, they just made such a big commotion in Knockturn Alley, and many people saw it.

   Thinking of others too stupidly, as long as those people have a brain, they will definitely abandon the stronghold directly.

   After Kingsley asked his assistant to sort out the news, he knocked on the door of the minister's office with the news.

"How about it?"

   Scrimgeour asked without looking up.

   "Only caught a few young people."

Kingsley handed over the documents that his assistant helped organize, "The Auror office should be following that line to investigate, but I don't think the possibility of catching a big fish should be high. This operation is too rushed. We It's too late to set up."

   "Where's Kenneth Tolle?"

   Scrimgeour put down the quill, took the report and quickly glanced at the contents, before asking.

"Mr. Toller is at the Ministry of Magic. We asked the Telegrapher to communicate with him, but he doesn't know much. According to the information provided by Mr. Toller, we suspect that Hogsmeade may have the eyeliner of Death Eaters." , and those three guys want to catch Mr. Toller, it should be a Death Eater trying to find Albert through him, and his reward is still hanging on the black market."

   "Can't understand why their heads are growing out of their asses?"

Scrimgeour really wanted to kill Lucius directly, but in the end he gave up doing that. If he loses his credibility, it will be very difficult to do that again in the future. After all, there are no Galleons left who fined Lucius from the three Death Eaters. how much.

"I think they should withdraw that **** bounty, but... even if they withdraw, the Malfoy family may continue to pay others to hang Albert's bounty." Kingsley was not too worried about Albert's safety. , "At present we have not found the whereabouts of Narcissa Malfoy. We suspect that she may be with Bellatrix Lestrange."

"This matter is not urgent, that guy is not easy to mess with. If necessary, he will definitely take the initiative to cooperate with us." Scrimgeour put down the document, looked up at Kingsley and asked, "The black magic training over there How is it going?"

"About a hundred people have come to participate in the training, and this number is gradually expanding." Kingsley took out another document from the folder and handed it to Scrimgeour, saying, "The effect is better than we expected. I want to use Before long, they should be able to protect themselves."

"You have done a good job, but the training for them...I mean teach them more self-protection abilities, and if there are particularly outstanding personnel, you can consider recruiting them for training." Scrimgeour said from the folder He took out a document from the inside, signed it, and said to Kingsley: "I will give you some temporary establishments, and the treatment is the same as that of your current members. And next time I meet a dark wizard who slaughtered Muggles, I will Allowing you to kill directly, we need to deter those bastards, lest they cause trouble everywhere, the Muggle Prime Minister has protested to Fudge several times."

   "Do you want to continue to expand enrollment?" Kingsley asked with a frown.

   "No way, we are seriously short of manpower." Scrimgeour reminded, "They are considered non-staff personnel during the war, and we need more helpers."

   "Where is Kenneth Tolle?" Kingsley asked again.

"It doesn't matter, let's commute his father's sentence, I guess it won't be long before Voldemort will try to break the prison." Scrimgeour tapped his finger on the table, "And we have nothing to do about it, so it doesn't really matter whether it is reduced or not. "

   "The prophecy of that person?"

"Probably!" Scrimgeour sighed, "This kind of thing is unavoidable. You should know better than me that Azkaban has locked up many prisoners. For Voldemort, these are natural cannon fodder. It should be very clear to you that he certainly wouldn't mind doing that."

"If possible, first pick out a group of criminals with relatively minor crimes, fine them, and then release them for investigation. If they commit another crime, they will be punished harder. As for the money that will be used to expand the crisis To deal with the group and fight against the mysterious person, we can only let everyone tide over the difficulties together."

   "Are you really going to do this?" Kingsley was confused by Scrimgeour's proposal.

   "Well, there is no need to worry about this matter. I will ask about the specific time of the escape. You will help me pass this to Pierce later. By the way, call Gadwin. We will hold a meeting on time at ten o'clock in the evening to discuss this matter."

   "Okay, I see." Kingsley left with the signed document.

  Looking at the closed wooden door, Scrimgeour sighed heavily.

  If possible, Scrimgeour would actually update the plane to ambush a wave of mysterious people, but since he knew that Dumbledore was injured, he completely gave up this idea.

  Let Dumbledore fight the mysterious man.

   No, he can't risk it.

   Moreover, things like prison robbery are impossible to prevent.

  Who made the jailbreaker a mysterious person?

  Can't resist at all, maybe calling so Auror can drive the mysterious man away, but only drive away.

   Right now, the only option is to use the all-people-all-soldier mode, so that everyone has the power to fight against the dark wizard. Although he is very clear about the consequences of doing so, he can no longer take care of it now.

  The docile crowd is indeed beneficial to the management of the Ministry of Magic, but they have no ability to protect themselves when facing hungry wolves. The reason for all this is actually that the Ministry of Magic has made one size fits all for the convenience of management.

   It is not difficult to see this from the Auror training materials and the Ministry of Magic's revision of part of Albert's "Guide to Self-Defense".

   As for future troubles, it has nothing to do with Scrimgeour. The most important thing now is to win this war and survive.

  Can you win?

   Scrimgeour didn't have much confidence in himself, because he suspected that Dumbledore was dying.

  Why was he murdered by a mysterious man?

  The big reason is that the mysterious man tries to control the Ministry of Magic, and he will become the number one target.

  Combined with Dumbledore's injury, he suspected that Dumbledore was no longer there at that time, and the mysterious man had no scruples. Although Albert said he had left a way out for him, but...he won't run away!
