Wei Liuwa danced alone in a corner of the restaurant, and no one around him paid attention to him.

Just now, after reading the magazine, Hermione found that when she was talking to the others, she found that the others didn't pay attention to her own voices, everyone was talking to herself, and she couldn't hear everyone's voices. After she lifted the spell of isolating sounds, Ginny sold Ron.

"Percy, what's wrong with you?" Hermione also noticed Percy's unpleasant complexion.

Percy didn't answer, and Mr. Weasley replied on his behalf, "He's regretting it." ”

"Regret what?" Hermione asked curiously, it must be a great deal to make Percy regret that her face is about to catch up with her.

"He's regretting that he didn't take his chance." At this moment, Bill Weasley's voice came from the direction of the fireplace, "Otherwise, he is a big man by now." ”

With that, Bill took out his wand and played a little background music to Ron, who was dancing on the side.

"Of course I'm not as good as you, who have become a big shot." Percy finally spoke, but with a twelve-point indignation in his tone, "Your Excellency Bill Weasley, Deputy Governor of Gringotts Bank. ”

"Huh?!" Hermione was glad she didn't have a heart attack, otherwise the news she heard today would have made her sick several times.

"You don't know about this?" Bill asked Hermione curiously, "I thought you already knew." ”

Seeing Hermione's blank expression, Bill sat down across from her and briefed her on what had happened in the past few months.

As the spokesperson for the interests of the Order of the Phoenix in the Gringotts corner-digging operation, as well as the employees who worked in Gringotts, Bill knew far more about the story than was published in the newspapers.

From a few months ago, everyone responded to the call of American wizards and began to dig up the corners of Gringotts, and then to rob Gringotts not long ago. And behind this operation, the ministries of magic began to abandon the International Confederation of Wizards to form a new order, and then began to unite to recover the ownership of Gringotts from the hands of the goblins, as well as the G20 meeting of the wizarding world held in New York yesterday. and the role played by Lucius Malfoy in this series of operations. Finally, by the way, the building that Hermione's family recently earned was the income from their family's participation in this operation.

When Bill finished, Hermione was stunned and stunned, her mouth never closed. Tired and slumped beside her, Ron picked up a cookie from the table that Ginny had just pulled out of the kitchen and stuffed it into her mouth to bring her back to her senses.

Also frightened were Harry, Ginny, and Blake and Lupin, who had just returned from Bill's lecture, and Mr. Weasley and Percy had apparently known about these things, so they had taken it lightly.

"So, the money we made this time was with the Death Eaters?" The first person who couldn't accept this fact was Blake, who only knew that Bill had helped him make a lot of money, but how it was made Bill hadn't elaborated, and he hadn't thought to talk about it when he was with another member of the team.

Bill took a sip of the honey lemon tea handed by his mother, moistened his throat, and said to Blake, "We are not working with the Death Eaters, but some of the British wizarding families represented by the Malfoy family. As I said earlier, there are also representatives sent by Scrimgeour in this cooperation. This time it's not a fight between wizards, it's a fight between humans and goblins. ”

"Is it dangerous for you to work at Gringotts? The current president of Gringotts is Narcissa Malfoy, who is a Death Eater. Mrs. Weasley asked worriedly, she was not interested in national affairs, she was only concerned about the safety of her son.

"It's okay, Mom." Bill said, "It was because many families were worried that Lady Malfoy, who had a Death Eater background, would dominate the future Gringotts family, so I went with the others to the Gringotts upper echelons to contain her. For this, they will guarantee our safety. ”

"In addition to me, the head of the Board of Supervisors is Mrs. Longbottom, and the other vice president is Mr. Muggle Owen, who is working with us this time." After Bill finished speaking, he stood up and picked up today's Daily Prophet in front of Hermione, flipped to the second page, pointed to the corner of the photo in a news interview with Narcissa Malfoy, and continued: "Lady Malfoy's assistant is her. ”

Hermione and the others who hadn't read today's newspaper poked their heads and found Zhang Qiu's head in the corner of the photo.

Bill sat down and continued to break the news: "Originally, I was going to let Sirius sit in this position, but many people think you are not very reliable, so I sat in this position. ”

This time, it was Blake's turn to be frozen as if he had been under a petrification spell.

"And what about Percy?" Harry on the side asked curiously, "Which position did he lose?" ”

"I didn't lose my position in Gringotts." Percy said with a sigh.

Mr. Weasley saw that Percy didn't want to speak, so he helped him explain: "Didn't Bill just say that he wanted to establish a new international organization composed of ministries of magic and other institutions in addition to the International Federation of Wizards, and now the organizing committee of this organization is headquartered in New York, and the Ministry of Magic needs to send a liaison officer to communicate with other countries. ”

"Who is this man?" Hermione asked as she flipped through the newspaper, but there was nothing in the newspaper about it.

"It's not reported in the newspapers yet." "Our plan was to select one of the two Diggories, and Percy was fighting for that position himself, and he almost succeeded," Mr. Weasley said. But this position was eventually occupied by Lucius's candidate, and Mr. Zhang later persuaded our minister about this candidate. That man was Draco Malfoy. ”

This time, it was the turn of several Hogwarts students who were shocked, and even if Snape was in this position, they would not have been so surprised.

"Why him?!" The one who reacted the most violently was Harry, who had been fighting ponies for six years.

"Later, my father and I agreed to this choice." Percy said helplessly.

Percy then reached out to stop Harry and the others who had something to say, and continued: "The reason can't be said yet, but the reason is sufficient. ”

Lupin on the side fell into deep thought, his right hand on the table tapping rhythmically on the table, attracting everyone's attention in a brief silence.

"Did you think of anything?" Blake, who was sitting next to Lupin, asked.

"I think of a possibility." Lupin replied, "If this speculation is true, then something makes sense, and the reason really cannot be said." ”

After saying that, Lupin looked at Percy and Mr. Weasley, who presumably already knew the inside story, and then the father and son nodded to Lupin.

Seeing the three of them playing a pantomime, Ron muttered to himself that he didn't know what to say. Annoyed by him, Hermione picked up a piece of cake on the table and gagged him up.

As lunch time approached, Moody, Longbottom, Hagrid, and other members of the Order of the Phoenix arrived at 12 Grimmauld Place, and Mrs. Weasley began to prepare lunch for everyone with a few young men.

As he was about to eat lunch, Kingsley Shackle asked Lupin, "Remus, what's the important thing to get us all together today?" ”

Lupin replied, "Mr. Chang asked me to gather everyone together, and he said he wanted to discuss something with us about Dumbledore and the Mysterio. ”

Taking advantage of this gap, Blake reached the kitchen, sat down next to Harry, who was peeling potatoes, and asked in a low voice, "Harry, do you mind if you have two more sisters?" ”

"You've decided on this?" Harry replied, "I don't care, I have a good relationship with Parvati and Padma. ”

"This ...... None of us are opposed to continuing to engage ......" Blake's voice paused, "you know? ”

"How could I not know such a thing?" Harry glanced at him, "He hinted at me that day when Lupin was watching over us in the dungeon. Later, when Moody came back from customizing a new prosthetic leg, he told me that you were chatting with a lady and almost forgot to pay for him. Coupled with the fact that you've been like this for the past few days, I can't tell that there are ghosts. You have the smell of her perfume on you, which I asked about in the common room, unless it's Parvati and Padma who have been with you these days. ”

"So, you don't object?" There was a little excitement in Blake's voice.

"Why should I object?" Harry replied, "Isn't that a good thing?" ”

Seeing Blake leave happily, Harry smiled and shook his head.

Just as Harry had finished peeling the potatoes, someone's voice rang out outside the kitchen door.

"Yo, Percy, your face doesn't look good. Don't worry, life is not as good as you should be, you will encounter a lot of such things in the future, just get used to it. ”
