Volume 2 The Basilisk is the Five Scumbags Chapter 4 An Unexpected Visitor

Unbeknownst to the naΓ―ve Harry, Crystal had reported all of his predicament to Daphany. However, Daphany had no intention of intervening. The reason is simple, Daphine! She didn't dare to interfere too much with the development of the plot, she didn't know what things would affect it, and it would be a lot of trouble if those things moved.

She actually influenced a lot of things in her first year. Some don't seem to have any after-effects at the moment, while others do. For example, the Meng family, which was completely absent in the original story, appeared in this world.

From Meng Yuchen's description, Daphany can see that the Meng family in the Americas alone is already a behemoth. The so-called magical family in Britain is not too small compared to others. Not to mention, there are more than 30 active prime-age magicians in the Meng family now, how can this thing compare?

But compared with the Meng family in the East, in Meng Yuchen's words, it is not a level at all.

Compared to the West, the magician families in the East are completely superior in numbers, regardless of their combat effectiveness. It's not surprising that the population base is there.

Daphany didn't know if it was an impact, or how much. All she knows is that these variables have the potential to cause trouble for her in the future. So she pulled the Weasley twins to help her set up the factory, but let the two leave just after Harry's birthday, because he knew that if the twins weren't there, Ron alone wouldn't dare drive to pick up Harry in the middle of the night.

Harry had to be rescued by Ron, which could boost their relationship - Daphany felt that her first year had softened the relationship between the Lion House and the Serpent House due to her presence, and it had also made the relationship between Harry and Ron not as good as it had been. After all, a large part of their friendship was based on their mutual hatred of Draco. But Draco was much more 'behaved' under Daphany's influence, and Harry's dislike for him was not so strong! I don't know if this counts as a big impact.

In addition, Harry was to be taken away by Ron, and only then would the two be sealed off the platform by Dobby. will drive to Hogwarts. The car will fool around in the Forbidden Forest, and then the two will be rescued under the spider's mouth. Any difference in the middle may lead to a big change in the plot.

As an outsider, he is also an outsider who knows where the future is going. Knowing the future is Daphany's greatest strength. Daphany couldn't give up this advantage no matter what.

Through Jingjing's report, everything went smoothly as expected.

Ron was already worried that Harry hadn't replied, but it had been more than a week since the twins ran out. He didn't dare to run to Harry himself, so he kept dragging it out. On the day the twins returned, news of the Ministry of Magic's report of Harry's forbidden use reached the Weasley home. After being beaten up by their mother for 'running away from home' for a week, the lawless twins still decide to take their little brother with them to rescue Harry, and also drive their old son's car.

Dafanie thinks it's a very cheating thing, it's a real cheating daddy, a cheating twins' daddy, Mr. Weasley. It is important to know that Mr. Weasley is the Ministry of Magic's department specializing in the misuse of Muggle items. And then the baby in his family drove the evidence of his abuse all over the world, which is simply ...... It's so cool!

Anyway, Daphany felt very cool, the twins were not killed by the old lady, and they could still save Harry at night, it seems that they are biological.

Daphany was still wondering what it would be like for Harry and Ginny, who had no sense of official matching, to meet for the first time when a huge black owl fluttered over.

At first, Daphany was not very comfortable with owl messengers. But for several years, I got used to it even if I didn't get used to it. He took the envelope and fed the owl a little food. Daphine opens the letter.

Somewhat surprised, the letter turned out to be written by Neville.

Neville wanted to visit him with his aunt in three days.

Does Neville have an aunt? Daphne pondered for a long time before she vaguely remembered the first time she met Neville. But only that once. After that, Neville contacted his grandmother for whatever he sent from home or asked for anything from home. Daphine had almost forgotten the aunt Neville had mentioned.

Neville was coming to visit her, which was strange and not strange.

Not surprisingly, this holiday Neville and Daphne actually passed through several letters. Ask some questions about summer homework. And the relationship between the two has been good since the beginning of the first semester. The strange thing is that it is not easy for Neville to take the initiative to visit her. Neville rarely takes the initiative to do anything. It is often forced to muster up the courage, and then it amazes everyone at once. But for no reason, Neville rarely showed his Gryffindor side.

After thinking about it for a while, Daphne thought it was more likely that Neville's aunt wanted to see her.

It is said that in this kind of situation where the elders come to visit together, there should be elders on your side as well. But Daphany's parents were counting lice in Azkaban. The only one who can be regarded as an elder in the family is Aunt Taliya. It's a pity that Taliya can't come out and play the parent this time.

For one, Taliah is not from the wizarding world. Although she has the blood of the Braque family in her veins, she is not in the family tree because of her identity as a squib. Nor has he ever touched the wizarding world. If you really meet people from the wizarding world, it's awkward to not be able to talk together.

Moreover, Aunt Taliya is not an idle housewife either. In fact, she is the top gold collar in London's financial center. Although the Black family expelled her from the family tree, let her still receive the best education. The Black family is not only a very high-ranking family in the wizarding world, but also has considerable influence in the ordinary world. This influence has weakened a lot because the Black family has suddenly become scarce. But long before it waned, Taliya had already established a foothold in the financial center.

In the first few years of caring for Daphany, Taliya's career was affected in some way. However, after Daphany entered elementary school, Talia's energy was more focused on her career. And Defanie, who holds the resources of the two families of the Black family and the Lestranzie family, with the help of her intentions, Taliya's career is going well. Now he is an executive of a multinational consortium. So, Taliya is very busy. For example, in the past few days, she has flown to Australia to discuss business, and she is not in Europe at all.

Therefore, the reception of Neville and his aunt had to be done by Daphany herself. Of course, she also has Jingjing to help.

Three days later, Daphany met Neville's aunt, Britney Longbottom, for the first time.

At first glance, Daphany thought she had seen her aunt, Taliya.

Britney and Talia don't have any similarities in appearance, what is similar is their temperament, a typical image of a strong woman! In the past two days, Daphany has had a limited understanding of Britney Longbottom. This youngest daughter of the previous generation of the Longbottom family, who went to France very early to develop, now seems to be an employee of a very powerful company in France, the specific work is not clear, but it seems that the level is not low.

"Hello, my name is Daphany, Daphany Lestranzi. Hear Neville talk about you often. Neville and Britney were invited into the main hall of Lestranzie Manor, and after Crystal served tea and snacks, Daphany officially introduced herself.

Britney nodded and smiled as gently as she could, but she could tell she wasn't used to it. It seems that he is usually a very strict person.

Britney said in as gentle a tone as she could, "Hello Daphany, I'm Britney Longbottom. Neville's aunt. Neville has spoken of you more than once, too. Say you're his best friend at the academy. I also want to express my gratitude to you this time."

"Auntie, you're so polite!" Daphany smiled and greeted, Daphany is an adult in her bones, although this kind of politeness is not skilled, but it is not too unfamiliar. On the other hand, little Neville on the side, who didn't know where to put his hand, looked very uncomfortable.

Daphne and Britney chatted for a while, and Britney took a sip of tea and moistened her throat. Daphine raised her eyebrows slightly, knowing that the other party was about to get to the point.

"I heard Neville say you're doing a great game of Quidditch!" Britney spoke again, but what she said surprised Daphany.

Stunned, Daphany nodded and said, "Well, it's a lot of play, it's not good, but it's okay." ”

"Daphany, you're too modest." Britney smiled and said, "I heard Neville tell you that your Slytherin team won last year's House Quidditch Cup." And it is said that you are the captain of the team. It's rare to join the house team in the first year, and it's even rarer to be the captain! ”

Daphany smiled and nodded, not answering, waiting for Britney to continue.

Sure enough, Britney continued: "I didn't seem to say it before, I work in France, I belong to the 'Mars Magic Power' group, and I am the chief executive of the French branch. ”

"Martian magical power?" Daphine raised an eyebrow slightly. It's a bit of a surprise. The name isn't particularly prominent now, but it used to be. And next year, it will be prominent again.

Mars Magic Power is a long-established flying broomstick manufacturing and R&D company. In the early works, Mars was one of the two major brands known as Quidditch Initiation, along with Silver Arrow. However, with the rise of the Light Wheel and Sweep series, Silver Arrow still has a small market share, and Mars has been undocumented for several years. Eighty percent of the brooms used by the club are divided between the light wheel and the sweep, and the remaining two percent are silver arrows, comets and two other new small brands. Except for the light wheel and sweep, other broomstick companies can basically only be said to be barely maintaining.

The Mars series has been completely eliminated by the official professional Quidditch club, and only a few amateurs are still using it. However, Daphne knew that the Martian magic power was about to make a big move. If you don't make a sound, it's already a blockbuster, and that's the case with Mars, and next May, they'll launch a cross-generational broomstick - the Fire Ballista! It was Harry's godfather, Sirius, who later gave Harry the handful.

As soon as the fire crossbow arrow came out, it swept away all the flying broomsticks in the world. The new product of the Optical Wheel series, the Optical Wheel 2002, was beaten at a lossless point during the data test. As a last resort, the light wheel launched a new light wheel 2003 again within half a year, but it still could not catch up with the level of fire crossbow arrows. By 1995, firebolts were the standard in almost all major clubs! No way, if you don't use fire bolts, you really can't beat the team that uses fire bolts!

Professional games and academy play are not the same concept at all, and professional players can really bring out the full effect of a broomstick. In this case, the level of the broom directly affects the level of the team.

Defanie showed an interested smile: "But I don't know what Auntie, what do you mean by talking about this?" ”

"We at Mars Magic Power are developing a magic broom that spans the ages!" Britney showed a hint of pride on her face, but quickly relented: "Our new product has been preliminarily completed, and now it has entered the testing stage. However, Daphine, you also know that our Martian magic power is not in a very good situation right now, and the testers are not very easy to find......"

So, we have a chance to test the fire bolts? Daphine's eyes lit up.

"I don't know, Auntie, have you chosen the name of your company's newly developed broom?" Daphany asked, a little excited.

"The official name hasn't been finalized yet, but now it's a relatively popular name internally-Fire Crossbow Arrow!"
