Chapter 1300 Gradually grows
Recently, the British wizarding world is very uneasy.
There was discussion everywhere about the Ministry of Magic spending money to reward Muggle-borns, and a group of guys who saw the benefits and wanted to earn gold by hunting down Muggle-born wizards colluded to expand the search team.
Under Garen's temptation, Azkaban welcomed a new batch of residents in just a few days, and even some unlucky Muggle-borns living in gray areas were not spared.
As Albert expected, "Guide to Self-Defense" finally played its role of existence. A small number of Muggle wizards who bought "Guide to Self-Defense" disguised themselves as ordinary Muggles by hiding their tracks. Successfully blended into the Muggle group and escaped from the hunters.
Of course, more Muggle wizards who have integrated into the magic world did not choose to hide back in the Muggle world, but chose to go to the wilderness to play wild survival. On the contrary, there are very few wizards who really choose to leave England to avoid disaster.
Albert was quite speechless about this, and could hardly understand their brain circuits.
Anyway, I have to go to a deserted place to play wild survival. Isn’t it good to go to other countries to play?
Not only is it safer, but you don’t have to worry about running into a search team.
"Their thinking patterns are different from yours. Staying in a familiar place will make them feel more secure." Isobel also had to admit that her husband was right, and it was safer to go abroad.
"Maybe, they just didn't leave the channel. After all, not everyone is as adventurous as you, not everyone is as well-prepared as you, and not everyone has magical attainments like you. For ordinary wizards, their Work and family are pretty much all they have."
"You're right, dear." Albert said softly, "I probably know what to do."
"Haven't you already done what you can to help them?" Katrina didn't understand what else Albert wanted to do.
"be safe."
Isobel kissed Albert on the cheek and asked, "Are you coming back from dinner?"
"Save me a supper."
"I thought you would find a way to stop him from continuing his adventure." Katrina looked at Albert's back as he left.
"I have tried it." Isobel shook his head and said, "I also believe that he will not take risks lightly."
"The situation in England is very bad. Maybe he won't take the risk, but his friends will. You should know what kind of people Gryffindors are."
…
"I thought you forgot about the association!"
Sanna put another cup of black tea in front of Albert, and said in a resentful tone.
"How about the transfer students?" Albert changed the subject.
"The situation is not so good!"
Sanna sat across from Albert and talked about what happened in the past few days.
"Not all the students are willing to believe us. It may be that the professors are all facing Mr. Shaker's face, or it may be other reasons. Fortunately, two-thirds of the students are willing to believe that we will enter the headquarters of the Defense Association."
Shanna bit the HQ especially hard.
"Of course, the situation over there is not very good. Cedric has been trying to get them to clean up there, but the effect is not great. I believe Cedric probably has a lot to say to you."
"It's normal. After all, they have never done these things. In Hogwarts school, most of the work is done by house elves. It is not surprising that those students have poor self-care ability in daily life." Albert I didn't care about the resentful gaze cast by Shanna, "But now they are refugees, and there are no house elves to help them take care of their lives. It's good enough to have enough food. If they can't accept it, they can leave on their own."
"Don't expect them to appreciate you." Shanna said angrily, "They probably hate you to death in their hearts and think you are deceiving them."
"I never expected them to be grateful to me." Albert shrugged. "Recently, Lee Jordan has been broadcasting more tragedies about Muggle wizards every day. Happiness is all in contrast."
"Will they believe it?" Shanna asked suspiciously.
"We didn't deceive them, we just told them the truth." Albert put down his teacup and said coldly, "In the end, if they don't know how to save themselves after crossing the confused area, then they deserve to be out of luck."
"You're really cruel. Speaking of which, I think you should go and have a look. The situation over there is really not good." Cedric sat next to Albert, sighed softly, "I suggest you go and have a look They, I believe your appearance will definitely lift their spirits."
"Are you sure you didn't want me to listen to their complaints?" Albert shook his head. "Besides, I'm the secret keeper there. Once I appear there, it means a breach and the shelter will no longer be safe."
"You're right, but..." Cedric wanted to say something, but was stopped by Albert.
"They are actually very lucky. The Ministry of Magic sent a large number of people to search for those Muggle-borns. How many people do you think can come out of Azkaban alive?"
"Then do you want to persuade those students who didn't go to the shelter?"
"They need to be responsible for their own lives, rather than us being responsible for them." Albert corrected, "We have already persuaded them, and we have tried our best to give them a way to contact them at the risk of leaving them. do everything."
Albert looked into Cedric's eyes and asked calmly, "Do you think we should humbly beg them to go to the shelter?"
"This?" Cedric was speechless.
"That's the way it is. If they are approached by dark wizards one day, that's not our problem." Albert emphasized again. "We've done everything we can."
Not long ago, Albert got the latest news from Percy.
Umbridge failed to get the roster he wanted from Snape (hidden by Professor McGonagall), so he directly took the most violent way to knock the brain of the wizard who was recorded at the beginning, God knows how much information she got .
Anyway, the man died.
This matter was completely out of Albert's expectation, no one could cover everything, and no one expected that Umbridge would have such a ruthless move.
Albert didn't tell anyone.
Because even if he said it, others might not be willing to believe it.
Perhaps, only enough tragic lessons can make them wake up completely.
This is the fortune teller's helplessness, but Albert is now able to deal with it calmly.
After all, he came from the era when his moral level continued to decline. Although he would not deliberately do bad things, he was just an egoist in the final analysis.
"By the way, there is one more thing." Shanna said suddenly: "Fred and George have been training with the dark wizards in the shelter recently. I think you'd better persuade them not to do that. If you do too much, you will completely annoy the Death Eaters, and if a tough guy comes along, they will be in trouble."
"They need to vent, don't look at me like that, I never hypocritically persuade others to give up revenge." Albert's words surprised everyone present, "However, I will remind them to be careful."
"I think those dark wizards can be used as training targets. Those students also need to vent their anger. It is undoubtedly a good choice for them to pour their anger on the dark wizards." Fred didn't think he and George had done anything wrong.
"I hope you remember to erase their memories, and...forget it." Albert drank the black tea in his cup and pointed to the place next to Shanna.
"I want you to know that you are risking your own lives." Albert waited for Fred to sit down and reminded, "If you really want to take revenge on them, you'd better find another place, not under their noses Next, that is a very stupid behavior. And George, I hope you still remember your identity as the secret keeper."
"Well, you're right!"
Fred accepted Albert's proposal. After all, Albert did not stop them from seeking revenge from those dark wizards.
"I'll be safe," George said.
Noticing the gazes cast by Shanna and Cedric, Albert shook his head and said, "Hatred is not so easy to eliminate. Harry didn't trouble the mysterious man because he was the savior, but because the mysterious man killed him." The whole family, so of course he wants to seek revenge from the mysterious person, regardless of whether he is the savior or not, but I still hope that you two can maintain reason, instead of being overwhelmed by hatred and finally taking your own life, that is very stupid matter."
"You are right, we will pay attention."
George gave Fred a look, and changed the subject, "We're trying to get some sleeping bags for them from Muggles recently. There's almost nothing in the shelter, and their life is quite difficult."
"Did they forget that they are wizards?" Albert looked very speechless, "They have magic wands in their hands, and if they lack anything, they can use magic to conjure them directly, and they can also train them with transfiguration spells, things like magic It needs to be used often."
"It's not easy, not everyone is like you, and transfiguration is the most difficult of all subjects." Cedric felt that Albert took it for granted.
"Of course I know it's not easy, but it takes practice and we can learn from each other. Nothing can be accomplished overnight." Albert tapped his finger on the table and said, "Practice, practice, keep practicing, this is comparable to what they did at Hogwarts." Learn things faster, don't underestimate their potential, I believe that as long as they persist for a year or so, they are even better at transformation, spells and Defense Against the Dark Arts than Hogwarts students."
"Well, you convinced me." Cedric shrugged, "But I still think they need someone to guide them, and you are undoubtedly the most suitable person."
"You can't expect a group of students to be like you." Shanna also decided to throw this question to Albert, "In fact, if we didn't have your guidance, this place would also be a mess."
"Are you sure you didn't ask me to listen to their complaints." Albert looked suspiciously at the few people present.
"Why do you think that?" George asked back.
"Because I have already guessed what I will face after I go, but those... don't make much sense." Albert sighed softly: "Well, you are right, they need someone to guide them, so that you are satisfied Come on!"
"It seems that you are finally willing to go and have a look."
Not only Cedric, everyone else had a good laugh.
"They need someone to listen to their complaints." Albert shook his head and said, "But the world still has to rely on itself. We can help them for a while, but we can't help them forever. We must let them recognize the reality and get back together." OK."
"It's hard," Fred said.
"Then let them suffer." Albert said without thinking.
"What are you going to do."
"The house elves need to return to Hogwarts after the summer vacation, and they can no longer help them prepare food. Therefore, they must learn to save themselves, otherwise they will have to eat boiled potatoes every day or go hungry." Albert expressed dissatisfaction Say kindly, "I'm sure they can swallow anything when they're starving."
"House elf..." Cedric seemed to think of something.
"Dobby is busy enough taking care of you." Shanna reached out and patted Cedric on the shoulder and said, "Remember to help in the kitchen next time, maybe you won't think that way, and Albert paid for it hired."
"Feel sorry."
"What does the Order of the Phoenix say, have they found a suitable candidate?" Albert asked, changing the subject.
"Tonks' father, Ted, is willing to help. You know that because of Lupine, he doesn't want to stay at the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix." George explained that the Order of the Phoenix also has many partners and is also willing to provide them with shelter. .
"Actually, Lupine didn't mind living there, but considering Tonks' problems, he finally gave up."
Fred also felt that Lupine had a bad relationship with the Tonks.
"His werewolf identity is a problem, and you would mind it if it were." Albert said naturally, "However, since he married Tonks, he should be aware of it."
"I heard you approve of them being together," Fred said suddenly.
"It's not my daughter who wants to marry him, why should I object." Albert said naturally.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and they had nothing to say. This is indeed the truth.
"By the way, Hannah Abbott wants to join us. Her parents were killed by a mysterious person." Cedric seemed to think of the girl who contacted him recently.
"Is she an adult? If she still has traces on her body." Albert raised his eyebrows and said, "At least we have to wait until the traces on her body disappear before thinking about this issue."
"She is an adult." Cedric asked, "How are you going to arrange her?"
"I remember that Ms. Aibo is a prefect. If she wants, she can go to the shelter first, help manage those children, and learn some defense against the dark arts with everyone." Albert thought for a while and said, "In There are at least his classmates there, so they won't hate those pure-blood wizards, they must understand that the suffering is caused by the mysterious man."
"You really make the best use of yourself!"
