Chapter 143: Imminent
When the little mute came in, his face was full of incredulity, and his eyes were full of surprise.
It wasn't until he turned his gaze to Gretel, who was sitting against the wall, that he suddenly became cautious again.
Gretel raised his eyes silently, watching the little guy walk briskly outside to take care of today's food.
To be honest, Glitter was a little worried at first, because there was no way that a roast chicken in such good condition would be thrown into the garbage in this area.
Such a good thing can only happen in Uptown.
The aristocrats basically lived in that area, and they held banquets day and night.
Even the servants under his command are tired of eating these big fish and meat.
But in this society where classes are extremely divided and wealth is infinitely closer to the upper class, the food scraps that these nobles regard as garbage are many rare delicacies for the people at the bottom.
So the feast that these nobles disdained was derived from a business after the banquet.
Servants who are also tired of eating often keep some of it for their own family members.
The rest is packed according to the variety and transferred to the vegetable leaders who come to hear the wind.
These foods, after they are looted again, will leave some leftovers to be cold and become the food of the lower class people.
A few pennies can buy a scrap of meat with little meat left to add some meat to the house.
If they are willing to spend more, such as a few shillings, the vegetable leaders will also generously sell some meat to their guests.
Like the meat that the little guy picked up before, it can only be said that it is too lucky.
On weekdays, as long as this kind of thing leaves the store, it will be swept away by the beggars who are squatting nearby.
The 'defective products' that Gretel dropped today were put in the hands of the vegetable boss, and the meat and skeleton were added up, and they were sold piecemeal, no less than the owner of the shop who sold roast chicken.
Therefore, this kind of thing will never appear in the garbage heap in civilian areas.
That is, the little mute and Glitter are not aware of this situation, which created this oolong.
The little guy was outside preparing food for two, and Gretel silently weighed his magic in the shelter.
If he has recovered his health in a showdown with the little guy now, if the little guy is bent on running, will he have the ability to stop him?
If the little one was a Muggle child, or an ordinary little wizard, Glitter wouldn't have any worries.
Even if he only has a paltry amount of magic now, he can still hold a Muggle or a little wizard with his hands.
But the horn on the little one's head, and the blood that could help him regain his health.
All this makes Gretel have to be cautious.
The showdown is simple, and the explanation is simple, that is, he has to have the ability to control the little one.
There is only one such chance, otherwise the little guy will never give him a second chance.
From his defensive attitude, you can tell that he lacks trust in anyone.
It was also because of this situation that Glitter did not dare to use the Dementor to explore the little one's heart.
I am afraid that a stimulus will break the hard-won balance between two people.
It's better to recover for a few more days, Gretel decided to be cautious for a few more days, and by then, his magic power would basically be almost restored.
At that time, even adult unicorns will not be able to eat good fruit here in Gretel.
Gretel, however, did not intend to do so.
Trust is fragile, easy to undermine and difficult to build.
Not to mention, the little guy doesn't trust him at all now.
Of course, Glitter still wants to use gentle means to let the little guy let down his guard when facing him as much as possible.
However, if it's really hard to obtain, Glitter doesn't have time to spend it here with the little one.
No matter how you say it, he still has to return to modern society.
It doesn't belong to him.
Even if everything he has experienced now is a script that has been arranged by time.
Gretel also wanted to work harder.
People have always been fickle, in case he didn't save Fred because of his stumbling at this time, or something else happened.
Maybe under the butterfly effect, something unspeakable will happen on his timeline in modern society.
A week, that's the time Gretel left for himself to cope.
Of course, he also knows that it is almost impossible to gain the trust of the little guy in a short period of time.
But he doesn't need the little guy to trust him wholeheartedly like Dawn's companions.
The two are not from the same era, Gretel knows this.
So, Gretel just wanted him to have a little bit of trust in himself.
In this way, Glitter will have less trouble when he repays the favor and arranges a place for him to go.
Glitter could sense that the little guy was a little dependent on him, though he didn't quite understand where those dependencies came from.
But it's not a bad thing after all.
Gretel was curious, but only curious, and what he wanted to do most now was to settle the little one.
After that, he hurried to the Americas to save Fred King, who was planted in the hands of a dark wizard who didn't know which one, oh, at this time, his name was still called, Copper Seal.
It's quite a goblin style.
As a pioneer in the Americas, he is a well-deserved decision-maker in the Americas.
The name of the copper seal is more suitable, and it is very suitable for his own work.
It's just that I don't know if he was originally called the copper seal, or if he changed his name because he was going to be sent to the Americas to do things.
Also, according to the information gathered by Dawn, the control of Gringotts in the seventeenth century should still be in the hands of wizards.
While thinking, Glitter pinched his chin, wondering if he could take advantage of the moment to find a way to bury a few small nails in Gringotts in Europe.
Gringotts, which is about to enter the 21st century, is really not something that the dawn can reach.
The elves, having taken full control of Gringotts, turned it into a barrel.
Not to mention the dawn, even if they are the goblins themselves, if there is no appointment of goblins in the clan, they don't want to put their hands in it.
But now, the wizards of Great Britain still hold Gringotts in their hands.
If you want to do something, this time is just right.
The goblins are on the move, but they are not yet in power, and Gringotts is full of wizards and elves.
Gringotts Wizarding Bank, not yet a false name.
Later, after the goblins mastered the financial system, Gringotts at that time could really be renamed Gringotts Goblin Bank.
The wizards' own property is only the right to use it.
As soon as he thought of this, Glitter couldn't help but sigh.
I don't know if the Ministry of Magic, which handed over the power to the goblins, was everyone's brains in water from top to bottom.
Or is it that they are all corrupted by the goblins with evil intentions?
Otherwise, more or less, even if it is just a few words, there should be information to circulate.
But no matter how the people of Dawn investigated, they couldn't investigate any inside information.
After that, if the goblins rebel again, it will not be a clan action.
Instead, every once in a while, someone raises the flag and occupies a place belonging to wizards in the wizarding world.
Make it your headquarters and start a rebellion that can be called a joke.
Such a rebellion is small in scale and does not cause many riots, so the goblins who commit crimes will not be punished too severely.
Even in some cases, with a wave of their hand, the investigators generously handed over the sinners who committed crimes to the goblins to deal with themselves.
Every time he saw these accounts, Glitter felt that the goblins definitely carried an aura of intelligence reduction with them to make wizards so stupid.
Rebellion, anywhere in the world, is a matter worthy of investigation in the direction of the extinction of the dead race.
But in the eyes of the wizards of Great Britain, it became a farce!
It's a ridiculous joke.
Changed to Gretel, when the wizard first started an all-out war with the goblins, and won the battle.
began to prepare to destroy its country, its history, its people, and its culture.
If it's a little too much, all those who are taller than the wheels will be killed, no, this won't work, the goblins are not as high as the wheels.
The only goblins can be taller than the wheels is their close relative, the trolls.
Think of house-elves, who are more worried about the demise of wizards than wizards themselves.
After countless years of slavery and brainwashing, they have completely become vassals of wizards.
This is the most correct thing for a wizard to do after winning the war.
It is rumored that the former house-elves possessed the strength of any intelligent race in this world.
However, the brave ancestors still won the battle.
The point is that they are not only brave, but also full of wisdom, and have successfully integrated house-elves into the wizarding camp.
Of course, Glitter is not encouraging this form of servitude.
He's just comparing the house-elf rebellion to the goblin rebellion.
Same behavior, completely different consequences.
It can't be said that house-elves are all soft bones, and they simply can't get up when they lie down.
If house-elves were such a race, there would be no such thing as rebellion.
It can only be that the ancestors have done everything they can to the extreme, and completely pulled out their backbones and interrupted them.
What about changing to a goblin?
If you don't look at the records, Glitter even thinks that the goblin's rebellion is a success.
If you don't believe it, just take a look, how can there be a defeated country stepping on the head of the victorious country to show off its might, from ancient times to the present, there has been no such thing on any continent.
This kind of two sides fought a war to destroy the country and extinguish the species.
The victorious survived, the defeated thrived, and even said that the victorious wizard still had to rely on the snorting life of the goblins.
What about the officials of the Ministry of Magic, when they get to Gringotts, they should be discriminated against or discriminated against.
Looking at them, it's like staring at a thief who is ready to do something.
Glitter felt that if he saw a new era of dawn and something like this happening, he would explode all over.
What a stupid successor to do such a stupid thing.
If you hadn't thought about it and felt that the future was more important, your actions now might be abnormal in the future.
Gretel is heading to Diagon Alley today.
More is better than less, anyway, in that timeline of the twentieth century, he had already found a plan to deal with goblins.
As long as you follow the steps, the elves' problems are not a problem.
Comparatively, the government of the Americas, and the Ministry of Magic of the Americas are more problematic.
Fred King, now the Copper Seal, had to be saved.
After all, there is no Ministry of Magic in the Americas now, but the goblins at Gringotts may have sent the people who opened the branch.
In the eighteenth century, Gringotts Americas, renamed the Goblin International Bank, was probably the oldest magical institution on the continent.
After dealing with the goblins in Europe, their help was indispensable when dealing with the Ministry of Magic of the Americas.
An organization that has been entrenched for centuries will know a lot of secrets, even if it does not deliberately gather intelligence.
The collusion between the Muggle government in the Americas and the Ministry of Magic in the Americas is definitely not something that has happened in recent decades.
Maybe the moment for their nest of snakes and rats happened centuries ago.
It's not so hard to accept that the descendants of prisoners and outcasts collude with dark wizards who have been ostracized by the wizarding world, is it?
Besides, normal people, who would carry out any genocidal plan.
Just because of the coveting of wealth, a civilization that could have been peaceful and untroubled was completely destroyed.
All the way up to the entire race, there are only a handful of people left.
It's unreasonable to think about it.
Even the house-elves who committed the crime of rebellion have not been wiped out.
Although it is difficult to compare, which of the two things is more serious, becoming a slave or being killed and exterminating.
Glitter didn't plan to explore, anyway, at this stage, he wouldn't stand in the shoes of house-elves.
He doesn't have that much energy, and his compassion isn't that cheap.
If their own people have not yet settled down, how can they have time to liberate these alien races.
If the future was all settled, he wouldn't mind giving these aliens a certain degree of freedom so that the whole world could become more harmonious.
However, those people in the Americas, they are not aliens, and from the perspective of identity alone, in front of these intelligent aliens, they are both human beings.
How could anyone do such a cruel thing to a life form that is almost exactly the same as themselves?
Could it be that these people are born with malice in their bones?
Even Voldemort, the sociopath who pursues eternal life, he didn't do so much.
Perverts are perverts, he still has a bottom line, and his cruelty is only aimed at those who resist his rule.
The Death Eaters who wantonly killed innocent people, and thus were punished by him, and they did not kill one or two.
……
There was a lot of food today, but the little guy still allocated the most portion to Gretel.
There was only a handful of meat in his bowl.
Gretel has regained his health, but he is still hiding it from the little one.
Under such circumstances, how could he still let the little guy treat him as a sick number.
Learning from the little guy's unrefusable posture, Gretel put the meat in his bowl into the little guy's bowl.
