Gringotts was bent on making William a chopper, and he was reluctant to take good things out.

The goblins are all stingy, and in their values:

You only have the right to use what you sell, and you have to return it after you die, and you can't give it away.

So, something as good as the Gryffindor Sword definitely can't be taken out of all.

After taking out a few treasures, there were more silver candlesticks, goblets, and even silver tableware from the fifteenth century.

What does William want this thing for, holding a silver candlestick to light a candle?

My lord, times have changed!

Is it OK for William to only use electricity at home? Aren't electric lights better than wax paper? Heating isn't as comfortable as a fireplace?

And silver plates, who in normal people use this kind of thing at home?

William stated that he preferred porcelain.

This kind of worthless, but seemingly ostentatious thing, appealed to those wizards, William was completely unimpressed.

All he bought was weapons, armor, and some jewelry that Hermione couldn't take her eyes off.

A million Galleons were paid for this.

This is completely unimaginable to a normal wizard, but it is simple for William.

Anyway, it's not your own money, and you just don't feel distressed to spend it.

The goblins still owe more than three million dollars...... William decided to take his time.

Those good things...... It's going to be squeezed out little by little.

Galleons don't need much of this kind of thing, and when the magic stone is refined, there won't be much gold...... Magic items are more important.

After leaving Gringotts, William and Hermione prepared to pick up their gowns.

There will be a Christmas ball during the Triwizard Tournament, and the school has been told to bring your own dress.

Who knew that the entrance of Gringotts was already full of wizarding reporters.

I don't know who let out the wind, Stark and Granger are here.

"Mr. Stark, what do you think of the Ministry of Magic press conference this morning?"

"Mr. Stark, why are you absent, are you unhappy with Minister Fudge?"

"Miss Granger, did the Ministry of Magic invite you, are they unhappy with witches?"

“……”

As soon as I heard it, it was an old boxer, the kind with superb boxing skills.

Neither William nor Hermione spoke.

Last time I was in the camp, I casually answered a reporter's question, saying:

The attackers were those Death Eaters who had escaped justice.

The next day, the newspapers spread rumors that Mr. Stark believed that the Ministry of Magic had made a mistake and had deliberately spared many Death Eaters.

"You didn't say a word, were you threatened by the Ministry of Magic?" A journalist shouted.

"Don't be afraid, we've got your back! If you have anything to say, just tell us! We won't say it! ”

William grabbed Hermione's arm and apparitioned directly in full view.

Nobody cares that minors can't use magic outside of school.

What the two of them have done makes everyone deliberately ignore a point.

If you really want to talk about it, then do you want to kill the lake monster, and do you want to save the kidnapped wizard?

Everyone is a little excited, just take a photo, and then go back to writing the manuscript:

Astound! The Ministry of Magic coerced Stark into shutting up.

Silent! Stark and Granger may have been unhappy with Minister Fudge sooner.

William appeared around the corner, and Hermione suddenly reached out from his shoulder and pinched a beetle.

The beetle looked flattering and nodded.

"Let's go, find a place where no one is." William glanced at Rita and apparitioned again.

……

……

Leaky Cauldron Bar, in a room.

The three of them sat down at the table.

"How's it going, my report is okay, right?" Rita tugged at her crocodile leather bag.

"Didn't I say that? Don't write about me and Hermione. William said in a cold tone.

"But...... The whole incident can't be avoided by the two of you at all.

Besides, most of what I write is still factual, and only a small part is artistically processed. ”

Rita stared at William, straightened her curls, and pulled out parchment and quills from her crocodile pouch.

However, seeing William's face, he put it on the table again, raised his hand and surrendered:

"If I don't write, someone will distort the report, just look at it...... Tomorrow morning, the newspaper will break the news that Fudge and the two of you are at odds.

If you don't let me report the truth, I'm a clear stream in the industry......"

"Thank you so much, it's time to give you a Pulitzer Prize." William scoffed.

"How's the Ministry of Magic?" Hermione poured William and herself a cup of tea.

"It's a mess."

Seeing that Hermione didn't pour it for herself, Rita had to pout and do it herself.

She actually wanted to drink flame whiskey.

"For a whole week, everybody kept sending yelling letters. Complaining about the safety of the World Cup.

It is hoped that the Ministry of Magic will compensate them for the damage to their belongings. ”

Rita sneered: "I also wrote to say that I lost something, not much, just a dozen pages of wish lists." ”

"If you two need anything, just place an order, maybe the Ministry of Magic will compensate you.

Mundungus Fletch filed a claim for damage, alleging that he had lost a tent with twelve bedrooms and a jacuzzi......"

William and Hermione didn't speak, but raised their glasses and took a sip of tea.

The movements and demeanor were surprisingly consistent, and he almost snorted disdainfully in his nose.

How much do you two need to know each other to make the same move?

Rita, who had no intention of being stuffed with dog food, couldn't help but say sourly:

"Well, Mr. Duo Billion, Mr. Hundred Million and Miss Pingyi Near, there is no shortage of Galleons at all......"

Her arm was on William's shoulder, and her mouth was close to kissing him in the face.

She blew a breath of hot air and intimately asked, "Tell me some about it, how many Galleons did you earn in this World Cup?" ”

A quill and parchment paper, floating in mid-air.

Hermione's wands waved, and they burst into flames.

Rita immediately restrained her smile and shut up directly.

After dealing with each other for so long, she can be regarded as estimating the bottom line between William and Hermione.

Something inconsequential, or roughly in line with the real situation, the two of them don't mind Rita reporting.

For example, at that time, she was fighting with the United States, and she wrote a fairly detailed report in Venice, but she was not warned.

But if you make it up, or inquire about privacy, both of them will be angry.

"Is there anything else strange about the Ministry of Magic?" William asked, putting down his glass.

"Yes...... Neither Crouch nor Bagman were present at today's press conference. Rita hurriedly took out the photos of the press conference from her bag.

"Crouch says he's sick......"

"Sick?" William's brow furrowed.

On the night of the kidnapping, he saw Crouch's name appear on the map.

But after rushing in, there was a fire, and he was busy saving people, so he finally went to look for it, but he didn't see Crouch.

Want...... He must have taken advantage of the chaos to escape. After all, he was captured by the Death Eaters, and his face was really unbearable.

At this time, I guess I am also pretending to be sick.

"What's wrong with Ludo?" Hermione asked curiously.

"He's sick too." Rita scoffed:

"But it must be fake, he's a veteran liar, if he has something to do with you, stay away.

You don't know him, this World Cup ......"

"I owe the goblins two hundred and fifty thousand Galleons." Hermione said. "And pay it back with the leprechaun's gold."

“…… Well, Miss Well-Informed, already knows. Rita was a little disappointed.

"Any other interesting information?" Hermione grinned. "Otherwise, we wouldn't have paid."

Always relying on the beetle as a threat, in fact, it is not too reliable, and it is easy to accumulate resentment.

Since William asked Rita to make an effort to inquire about the information, he would also pay his salary as appropriate.

Rita thought for a moment and said, "Hogwarts is hosting the Triwizard Tournament......"

"Got it."

“…… Mad Eye Moody has become your Defence Against the Dark Arts professor. ”

"I heard Professor McGonagall mention it."

"Then ......" Rita searched her stomach and intestines, suddenly remembering something, and said, "Bagman was beaten." ”

"Huh?" William looked up.

Rita was in high spirits, and immediately said: "He actually not only owes money to the goblins, but also secretly sits in the village and owes a lot of money to wizards. ”

"Someone broke into his house and tried to force him to pay him back......" Rita gloated:

"The yard was blown up, and finally the Ministry of Magic arrived, but they didn't catch the attacker.

According to Bagman, there may also be goblins involved. ”

William's eyes narrowed. This information is really nothing.

He owes so much money and wants to be a liar. It's normal to be chased for debts.

William even suspected that it was Ludo directing and acting...... The goal was for the Aurors to protect him.

But as Rita said...... Ludo does not deserve sympathy.
