Chapter 474: Wildsmith's Worries
In the evening, as it grew dark, Albert folded the map and put it in his pocket, and left the Room of Request to the whistle of Fred, George, and Lee Jordan.
The three of them seem to have some wonderful misunderstanding about Albert's statement that they have an appointment with someone else.
Albert didn't bother to explain it to them, if there was a misunderstanding, it would be a misunderstanding, anyway, it was not that he had no date with Isobel.
As he walked through the secret passage to the third floor, Albert took his pocket watch out of his pocket and glanced at the hands on it, which was still a few minutes before seven o'clock in the evening.
That was enough time for him to walk to Professor McGonagall's office.
Just after seven o'clock, Albert slipped his pocket watch into his pocket and raised his hand to knock on the wooden door of his office.
In a moment, footsteps were heard inside the door.
Professor McGonagall opened the door, looked at Albert standing outside the door, and said, "It's punctual. ”
"I'd like to borrow ......"
Before Albert could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Professor McGonagall.
"Bud has written to me about this. Professor McGonagall took two steps back, out of the way of the door, and motioned for Albert to come into the room and speak.
"You should know how to use Floo powder, right?"
"Yes. ”
"That's good. Professor McGonagall handed Albert the box containing Floo Powder, and suddenly reminded, "Before curfew, you must come back." ”
"Got it. Albert picked up a pinch from the box and sprinkled Floo powder over the fireplace.
With a snort, the fire in the fireplace rolled into a turquoise flame, rising higher than the two of them.
Albert walked straight into the fire and shouted "192 Diagon Alley", and the whole person was sucked into the flames, and his body seemed to spin rapidly in the washing machine, and the whistling sound passed by his ears.
I don't know how long it took, but Albert felt himself fall headfirst on the cold stone floor.
"Are you alright, sir?"
A shrill voice rang in Albert's ears, it was a house-elf.
"Well, I'm fine. ”
"Please take my hand, and I'll take my husband to the place of the banquet. ”
As soon as Albert got up from the ground, the house-elf reached out and grabbed his wrist, and disappeared with his apparition.
When Albert came to his senses, he found himself standing in a brightly lit hall.
The house-elf beside him pushed him to a chair.
"Good evening. Professor Broad greeted Albert with a smile, "It seems that you are not used to this way of traveling. ”
"yes, it's a little uncomfortable. Albert suppressed the churning nausea and nodded slightly to the others present, and he found that Sierra Harrichs was actually here.
"I think you're going to get used to it. Tiberus Ogden comforted gently.
"Isn't it surprising why I'm here?" said Sierra Harriss, winking at Albert and smiling.
"I can probably guess why. Albert said.
"I hope you don't get tired of spending Easter with us old men. Gerber Smith also smiled kindly at Albert, "After all, we don't have a lot of time together, and as a family, we still need to spend some time cultivating our relationship." ”
The house-elves quickly got their food ready, this time still focusing on French and Italian cuisine, but with some of the easier to digest.
"I know you'll probably be a little surprised, although some rules can't be changed, but the rules are dead after all, people are alive, and people are more important. McDoug said calmly.
"So, I'm one of you ahead of time?" Albert asked curiously, stuffing the cheese-stained lobster meat into his mouth and swallowing it.
"So to speak. Professor Broad smiled and nodded.
"Can you tell me what made you make such a change?" said Albert, listening intently as he continued to destroy the spaghetti. Bayi Chinese Network
"A while ago, I visited an old friend, and he told me that the sparks that bring war still shine brightly above us. Tiberus Ogdenwin said softly.
"Prophet?" Albert asked, putting down his fork, wiping the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, looking at Tiberus, "is this a hint that fighting will resume soon?"
"Yes, he was very good at stargazing and divination. Ogden sighed and said, "He told me that in the last ten years, there have been all kinds of indications that people in the wizarding world are only spending a brief period of peace between wars. ”
"I've heard some rumors lately, related to mystery people. Albert said calmly, "It is said that the mysterious man has his eye on the Philosopher's Stone, and that stone is now at Hogwarts?"
"It's not good news. McDoug frowned, "It's hard to imagine Dumbledore doing that. ”
"Potter is enrolled this year. Professor Broad reminded, "Everyone calls him the Savior, and I think something might happen between them." ”
"Yes, your guess is correct, I also think something will happen between them. Albert peeled off the lobster tongs that had been shattered.
"As the heir of Wildsmith, you want you to value your own safety. Gerber Smith had no other negative feelings toward his grandson because he had been killed by Albert.
At times, Albert felt incredible.
"Oh, of course I'll protect myself, after all, I haven't lived enough. Albert said earnestly.
At the dinner, they talked a lot. The First Wizarding War, and even before that, the first Dark Lord sparked something in the wizarding world.
Whether it was Ogden, or Smith, or even Harrichs, they were teaching Albert experience.
They were all worried about the outbreak of the Second Wizarding War, and even more worried that this war would last for a long time.
Voldemort dared everyone to call him "the demon who couldn't even mention his name", not just because the name was enchanted, but for years, if not longer, to imprint fear into people's hearts.
"If something bad happens, I hope you will hide or simply leave England and wait for the war to end and come back. Ogden looked at Albert and said seriously.
Evasion may be an act of weakness, but it is undoubtedly the best solution.
"Because I'm a Gryffindor student?" Albert asked, raising an eyebrow.
Obviously, the reason why several people wanted to emphasize this matter to him at this time was undoubtedly because they were worried that he was a student of Gryffindor.
Gryffindor's students were not short of courage, but confronting Voldemort or his minions was clearly not what they wanted to see.
The Wildsmith family is so secretive that as long as everyone hides, even if you want to find it, there is nowhere to find it, and not many people know about their existence.
"Don't worry, I value my life more than you, and besides, I can actually do divination. Albert said calmly.
"That's why we're not at ease. Professor Broder sighed softly, "When you were in your first year, you dared to break into the Forbidden Forest single-handedly, I know that you actually made a lot of preparations, but you still took risks, even if the risk was low, there were still risks. ”
"I don't need to mention last year. McDoug said with a sigh.
"You're so adventurous, maybe you've prepared for every adventure, but we don't want you to take risks, because nothing is prepared. ”
"Don't worry, I'm not going to joke with my life. Albert said calmly, "What's more, there's Isobel." ”
"Isobel's kid is good, but you're more suitable. Ogden said.
"I heard you're dating?" asked Mogg tentatively.
"Well, we do date. Albert admitted it directly.
"Look, I'll just say they're going to come together. Professor Broad winked at the others and smiled, "They're both very similar personalities. ”
"Very good, when you graduate, you can get married. Gerber Smith clapped, "When the time comes, settle abroad, don't go back to England for a while, and we will all leave England to escape the upcoming Second Wizarding War." ”
Albert was speechless when he heard this.
To be honest, it's a bit of an exaggeration to describe it as a war.
Moreover, he knew that the so-called Second Wizarding War did not last as long as the first, and that Voldemort was soon ended by the Savior.
The concerns of several of you are undoubtedly unfounded.
But Albert could not tell them that Voldemort was soon in the streets when the Second War began.
