Chapter 574: French Branch, See Lockhart Again

France, hiddenly.

Heinrich's face was gloomy and he slapped Kim's hand away.

Jin shook his head and sighed, "As a senior, you disrespect me like this."

"Senpai?" Heinrich sneered, "I don't remember you being my senior."

"Why not!" Kim argued, "In terms of age, I am older than you, and in terms of qualifications, I am better than your precedent silver hand Johnny."

Seeing Heinrich pin his head away, he smiled and said, "I still have more experience in opening a store than you, so it's not too much to say that seniors are too much, right?"

Heinrich ignored him, but stared at the other side and said, "Someone's coming."

They were in another part of the hiding place, Corner Alley.

Everywhere there is darkness.

Corner Alley is such a place.

Unruly wizards in France like to come here to buy things that they can't normally buy.

And today, in this corner alley, people lying on the ground tell that there was a big battle.

In addition to Heinrich and Kim standing, several wizards were beside them to put a slumber spell on the wizard who was about to wake up.

Hearing the movement of someone coming, everyone was vigilant.

A man walked out slowly.

Seemingly surprised by the scene inside, the man took off his hat and smiled, "This is the last shop to illegally resell silver hand products, and the Aurors will take over here."

The person who came was an Auror of France.

The Corner Alley is doing illegal business, and the Aurors turn a blind eye to the Silver Hand's actions against the dark forces.

What I said just now was to tell the two of them that it was the last one, and if they continued to do it, I was afraid that some of the people behind the dark forces would not be able to sit still.

Heinrich stared at the Aurors, and Kim sneered, "You don't think that's all there is to it?"

The Auror smiled stiffly, smiled awkwardly and said, "By the way, I forgot to tell you that a shop in the hidden place is about to be sold, and the owner is in dire need of money."

The need for money means that the price is low.

The French Ministry of Magic acquiesced in the Silver Hand to clear the dark forces, and was willing to give up a good position to the other party.

Heinrich said lightly, "Go back and tell those people that the Silver Hand doesn't need to give alms."

A hint of displeasure flashed in the Aurors' eyes, but quickly hid it.

He smiled and said, "I will."

He nodded, and watched Heinrich and the others leave.

Glancing over the fallen wizards, the Aurors muttered to themselves, "There's a bad one to mess with."

The Minister of Magic, Charles Rolland, gave them the green light, and the Aurors said behind him, "Take them away, and say that the Aurors have captured them."

From behind the Auror, a dozen Aurors stepped out.

Few of these Corner Alley guys are clean.

To arrest him, all you need to do is find a random charge.

When the Silverhand came to France, he began to show his strength, at first by two people, and then gradually increased in number over time.

A week later.

The French branch of the Silver Hand Johnny boutique appears in a hidden place.

Kim is in charge of management, and he is familiar with the operating model of Silver Hands.

When he was in the United States, he also managed the branch with Nagini.

The arrival of the first silver hand goods was extremely hot.

The French Ministry of Magic gave them the green light to allow the various audits to be cleared quickly.

The Minister of Magic is looking forward to what the Silver Hand can bring to him.

Some people are secretly thinking about how to get a piece of the pie.

And the first climax of the branch appeared.

Gilderoy Lockhart appears in a French hideout.

This is a heavyweight guest, one of the top superstars in the wizarding world.

He came to be the spokesperson.

As with the American branch, Lockhart became the face of the store.

...

"Big hit, Silver Hand Johnny branch opens in France, Gilderoy Lockhart appears"

The New Book of Gilderoy Lockhart

Gilderoy Lockhart Interview: Regret Missing the Battle for His Alma Mater

The newspapers were full of Lockhart's name.

John looked at it with an eyebrow.

Under the unsparing touting of the silver hand, the current Lockhart is no longer what it used to be.

He was once a famous writer.

Now Lockhart is a powerful wizard, a Death Eater fighter, a valiant warrior, and a hero who protects the people.

As soon as his book was released, it set a new record.

It was also sold abroad and was well received.

His money has long been exhausted, and he is now keen on charity.

Like Damo Alex, once a person reaches a certain level of wealth, it will not be money that he is after.

"Gilderoy Lockhart announced that he will donate half of the proceeds from his new book to the Little Wizard Fund to bring warmth to the children of the neon incident"

As soon as this news came out, the neon magic department, which had been gradually fading, was once again pushed to the forefront.

The neon Ministry of Magic also kept procrastinating, and their Minister of Magic bowed again and again, but there was no real solution.

Many political parties in the country have seized power from each other.

External pressure is applied.

The Neon Ministry of Magic hated John.

John was also fearless about this.

If the Neon Magic Department continued to jump up and down, he didn't mind making the other party suffer a little more.

Don Mi wrote to him and told him about the Muggle children sent home.

This matter is still fermenting.

Some Muggle parents were killed, leaving Muggle children orphaned.

John frowned.

"Looks like they died too easily."

John didn't regret what happened to the magic house, he just regretted letting that group die too easily.

The tortured Muggle children had nowhere to go, and John had a headache.

"You can't keep a bunch of Muggles in the wizarding world."

He thought about how to settle it.

Voldemort's face came to his mind.

"Maybe I can open a welfare home." Rubbing his finger over the ring, John thought it would work.

I'm used to thinking about problems with wizards, and I almost forgot that I can solve them simply.

He had the idea that he could adopt the homeless Muggle children in one group.

It's just that the welfare home is not so simple to open.

But he wasn't out of the question.

Taking out a piece of parchment, he wrote a letter to his father.

"It just so happens that Daddy can also be a great good person."

He handed the letter to Basil and watched the snowy owl fly out of the castle.

John also wrote a letter to Lockhart thanking him for his donation to the Little Wizard's Fund.

As a result of Lockhart's celebrity, the Little Wizard Fund ushered in a wave of donations.

Celebrities from all walks of life began to donate to the fund, as if it would be out of place not to do so.

As a result, the already wealthy foundation made another big profit.

...

John's arrangements for this school year were simple.

Hagrid's class, finding the Chamber of Secrets, and occasionally Slughorn to discuss the Bloodborne Curse.

He had plenty of time to visit almost every place in Hogwarts.

Even the *** area, he went a few times.

Ms. Pince pretended not to see what he was doing.

"No, where is the place where no smart person can find it?"

John began to have some doubts about the authenticity of the chamber.

He has almost traveled to the places linked to wisdom, and he has not even let go of the principal's office.

But nowhere else did there be a Ravenclaw chamber.

Trying to find Hufflepuff's vault with no clues, John was a headache.

"That's right, if it were simple, I wouldn't have encountered it once in seven years." John comforted himself.

Back in the common room, he received a reply.

One was from Daddy, and it told John that he had bought a plot of land outside London.

John was going to build the orphanage because of the special circumstances that he couldn't let it in the wizarding world, and he couldn't let it be noticed by too many Muggles.

The countryside is a good option for building a house without being obtrusive.

However, the administrator still needs Daddy's help to find it, and he doesn't plan to make the wizard an administrator.

In a wizard's mindset, he was afraid that those Muggle kids would be tossed by wizards.

You don't have to expect wizards who will throw kids downstairs to test whether they are squibs or not have much Muggle knowledge.

The second is Lockhart's.

The former Ravenclaw student wrote back to mention that his new book was about love.

He wanted to challenge his weakness and try a new genre of writing.

In response to this, John's mind appeared in the book that Lockhart had written, and the banshees, vampires, and the like in it.

Don't those loves feel distorted?

Wise people don't fall in love.

I don't know what Ravenclaw's understanding of love is.

Silent, John put the letter down and could only wish Lockhart continued success.

Just as he was about to pick up the third letter, he paused.

"Wise men don't fall in love?"

...
