  Chapter 1328 Two Powder Kegs

   "Is there a party later?"

  Angelina served the freshly baked chicken cake to the table, preparing for the next afternoon tea party.

   "No, I have other things to do this afternoon."

   Albert took a piece of chicken cake and tasted it, and found that it was actually filled with cheese, which made him raise his eyebrows slightly.

  Alia, who was pouring hot water into the teapot, couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard this, looked up and down at Albert, and couldn't help asking, "Then what are you doing here today?"

   "Sounds like I'm only here for parties."

   After Albert said thank you, he took the black tea handed by Shanna and took a sip.

   "I usually only see you at parties anyway."

  Angelina snapped her fingers, as if counting the number of times Albert appeared this month.

   "Ahem, I brought over the spoils you recently harvested." Albert waved his wand to conjure a suitcase out of thin air, and said with a smile, "If you don't welcome me, then I'll leave."

   "At least you have to keep things."

   After Li Jordan smiled and handed a manuscript to Shanna, he stared at the suitcase that Albert had just brought, and when he opened it, he found a bunch of miscellaneous things inside.

"I really don't know how to use these broken things as trophies." Lee Jordan picked up an old silver arrow and couldn't help complaining, "This broom is bigger than Albert bought from Mundungus back then. The silver arrow will break."

   "There are not many valuable items in the first place, but this is still more valuable inside."

   Albert took out a small bag from his pocket and threw it on the table, "You can discuss what to do with this Galleon."

   "I don't remember much!"

  Lee Jordan had quick eyesight and quick hands, grabbed the money bag before Kenneth, dumped all the contents on the table, and the coins fell on the table with a clatter.

"Not much?"

  Angelina looked at the pile of coins, and then looked at Lee Jordan who was picking Garen.

   "It's not that many. There are about 20 Galleons. I can't remember the exact number." Albert wiped out another piece of chicken cake, this time with red bean filling, which feels better than cheese filling.

"so little."

   "A lot."

   "Don't forget, how many dark wizards we defeated a while ago."

"Most dark wizards are poor ghosts, otherwise why do you think they would risk becoming dark wizards." Kenneth knew the situation in Knockturn Alley too well, "If you are really rich, why would you join the search team, as long as you are willing Just use your brain and think about it.”

   "Are you trying to call me stupid?"

  Aaliyah narrowed her eyes and stared at Kenneth.

  The latter shrugged and stopped talking, so as not to be beaten later.

   "Since they know that you have the habit of looting, they don't keep valuables on them, unless you go to loot the dark wizards at the Pig's Head Bar." Albert refilled himself with a cup of black tea.

"Why?"

   "Dark wizards often do some small side jobs there, smuggling potions or..." Kenneth knew very well that he had done similar things with his father before.

   "We are not robbers." Shanna reminded.

   "Yes, we're just fighting dark wizards." Lee Jordan laughed.

   "Don't go to Hogsmeade." Albert talked about the reason why he just mentioned Hogsmeade.

"Why?"

  Everyone looked at Albert, they all thought that Albert was going to attack the dark wizard in Hogsmeade.

   "It has become the base camp of dark wizards."

"what happened?"

"A large number of dark wizards have poured into the UK, and it is now becoming a paradise for dark wizards." Shanna said with disgust on her face, "Because of this, the number of Muggles who died inexplicably recently is rising rapidly, killing Muggles even It’s almost becoming a form of entertainment.”

   "Are you sure we really want to let it go?" Truman frowned and looked at Albert. They all knew that only Albert had the ability to solve this problem.

"The Death Eaters seem to intend to make Hogsmeade the largest black market in Europe. This is also the main reason why a large number of dark wizards have flooded into Hogsmeade. The villagers who used to live in Hogsmeade were forced to move out." Albert seemed to think of something, and added: "Probably only the owner of the Pig's Head Bar is still open. Anyway, that ghost place is more chaotic than Backside Alley."

   "If Hogsmeade really becomes that kind of place, Hogwarts students won't be able to go to Hogwarts to spend weekends in the future?" George felt that Hogwarts students were very unlucky.

   "Have you figured it out?" Albert asked.

"Come on, thirteen Galleons and six Sickles are missing, obviously some students didn't pay." Fred was quite annoyed by this, "We gave them a 20% discount, yet someone is going to prostitute us for free s things."

   “They failed our trust.”

  George isn't mad at the money, they don't need it, but it really **** to have their trust trampled on and make them feel like idiots.

   "It's normal. It's human nature to like whoring for free." Albert was indifferent to this. When the twins proposed to give things first and then collect money, he guessed that there would be such a result.

   Still, it helps Fred and George grow, so he doesn't stop it.

   "So, we plan to restore the previous mail order method, pay for the reservation first, and then deliver the goods." Fred gave their solution.

  They all felt that they were really stupid and naive before.

   "Actually, you are not at a disadvantage, are you?" Albert stuffed the egg cake into the hands of the twins, and reminded, "Thirteen Galleons and six Sickles, it is undoubtedly quite cheap to buy a lesson."

"you're right."

  George found an empty seat and sat down, took a bite of the chicken cake, and felt that the original depression was swept away.

   "It's potato stuffing?" Fred was a little stunned.

   "What about you, Cedric?"

   Albert came to look for Cedric, because the current Hogwarts is really messed up by Neville and DA. If it is not stopped, God knows what will happen next.

   After Albert cast his gaze, Cedric quickly explained: "The Hogwarts matter is not my problem."

  The Weasley twins sold joke props is the biggest incentive, and he will never take the blame for this.

  However, the Weasley brothers did not want to take the blame, and were trying to quibble.

"Their opponents are dark wizards. Even if they really want to make trouble, they must be well-trained, not like a group of fools." Albert tapped the table with his index finger, quieting Fred and George, "They need to have a degree , so as not to provoke all the Death Eaters."

  "Mysterious man definitely doesn't want Hogwarts to get out of control, and we don't want the school to get out of control, so it can only be played and pranked not too much."

   "Neville will probably be disappointed. He dreams of driving the Death Eaters out of Hogwarts." George glanced at Albert and said to himself.

   "Then, use Hogwarts to fight the Death Eaters?"

  Fred and George didn't speak, obviously acquiescing.

   Albert was sure that the Weasley twins were definitely behind this incident.

   "It's too early."

   After Albert finished destroying the chicken cakes, he stared at Fred and George fiercely: "You guys don't want to go to Hogwarts anymore."

   As he said that, he turned his head to Cedric and said, "Also, let Neville calm down recently, I think there is going to be an explosion over there."

   "It's not easy."

  Cedric smiled wryly. He had actually reminded Neville and Ernie more than once, but the effect was not great. They were almost overwhelmed by successive victories.

   No one wants to stop before winning.

   "Perhaps, only a big somersault can make them wake up."

  He looked at Albert, hoping that the other party could give him some good advice.

   "You want me to tell them the truth?" Albert raised his eyebrows.

   Cedric nodded.

   Albert stared at Cedric for a moment, and said after seeing him in embarrassment, "It seems that you are also a little impatient."

   “I just feel like…”

"You tell them directly that they will inevitably fail. Although I can fish them out, they can only temporarily hide in the shelter, and doing so will cause the Hogwarts students to lose their last ability to resist." Ai Burt thought for a while and said, "You tell them directly and let them make their own choices."

"Should we meet the doomed failure and suffer for it, or give up those seemingly stupid actions, go back to the underground to practice spells, continue to deal with Hogwarts Death Eaters, and protect Hogwarts by the way s student."

  He said it very bluntly. As for what Neville would choose, Albert could not interfere, but he hoped that they would choose the latter.

   "You are too... harsh."

  Cedric opened his mouth, showing a helpless wry smile.

"I dared to bring you to trouble with Umbridge, it was because I was capable of covering you up and cleaning up this mess for you, but they didn't do that, and it was more serious this time, because their enemies were notorious A Death Eater like Umbridge, not a trash like Umbridge who only relies on power."

   "Your words really hurt people," Angelina said.

   "Umbridge can't kill, but Death Eaters can." Albert said angrily, "Besides, this is war, not a joke, and most of you don't even understand that."

   “We know this is war.”

   "I don't want to wait for someone from the Association to lose his life because of this, so that others will wake up to the fact that we are at war." Although Albert is unwilling to admit it, he thinks this is the most likely possibility.

  Because humans are that kind of creatures.

   For most members of the Defense Association, today's war looks like a more thrilling game.

   It's exciting and fun.

   Moreover, their dueling level is also growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

   It is a bit expensive for everyone to reset their mentality.

"Where are you going?"

   "Do something real."

   "Isn't the party a business?" Qiu Zhang asked suspiciously.

   "There is one more important thing to do now." Albert waved his hand and prepared to leave.

   "Then when are you going to continue the Imperius Curse resistance training?" Kenneth asked suddenly.

"Let's work on the basics first. When I'm away, I'll help keep an eye on them, and the shelter is the same. Don't let the students who join us have a hard time." Albert stopped and turned around. Said to everyone present, "If any of you have completed the most basic training, I will teach you some of my tricks as this year's Christmas gift. So, you only have more than two months left."

   "I feel like he's coaxing a child." Qiu Zhang turned his head to Cedric and said.

   "All of us, in Albert's eyes, are probably children who need his care." Shanna was not surprised by this.

   "Okay little Georgie, let's go and tell everyone the good news!"

   "Shut up, little Freddie."

  The twins hooked their shoulders and went to the training room.
