Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1163: 1 hair
Chapter 1165 A hair
In mid-September, the rainy season in the UK seems to be a little earlier. The streets of London, which were originally filled with cold fog, began to rain sparsely. Pedestrians with umbrellas are in a hurry. tacit agreement.
Since the dense fog appeared in various parts of the UK in July, everyone obviously felt that something was wrong, especially after two months of frequent strange events, the cloud hanging over everyone's hearts has never dissipated.
Among the hurrying pedestrians, a middle-aged man with an umbrella and a briefcase stopped, tucked the briefcase in his left hand under his right shoulder, and took out a copy from his suit pocket. After carefully reading the name on the note, he raised his head and looked around, as if he was looking for something. Soon, his eyes lit up, and after putting the note back into his pocket, he quickly walked forward with his briefcase, and soon turned into a coffee shop two shops away.
With the help of putting away the umbrella and putting it on the umbrella stand, Bill, disguised as a middle-aged man, looked around the store and found a blond man in the corner. He smiled and nodded at the waitress, indicating that he had an appointment. Go back to the corner table.
"Hope I didn't keep you waiting too long."
Bill greeted the strange man who was reading a newspaper in front of him.
Actually, this is the password exchange between the two parties, no matter who is late, they will say this sentence.
"No, I just arrived."
The man put down the newspaper, smiled and made a gesture of invitation to Bill: "Then let's start!"
After the password was matched, Bill couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Sit down in front of Albert, who is disguised as a middle-aged blond man.
"Let's take a look at this information first!"
Albert took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to the man opposite.
Bill admired Albert's ability to disguise from the bottom of his heart. Even if the Death Eaters were staring here, they probably wouldn't be able to recognize their identities.
No matter who sees this scene, they will think that they are just two ordinary salesmen who are discussing the company's cooperation business.
Bill checked the document and found that it was indeed a company document. He quickly saw the handwriting printed on it with very light ink under Albert's gesture.
Every page has it, the content is very simple:
Albert hopes that Bill can help him send a few letters to the therapist at St. Mungo's Magical Injury Hospital. During this process, he needs Bill and Fleur to disguise themselves as pregnant couples to go to the hospital for examination. , By the way, send the letter over.
"This..."
Bill put down the document in his hand and looked up at Albert, but he seemed to realize something, and quickly suppressed the astonishment on his face.
To be honest, Bill really doesn't understand what Albert wants to do?
"Actually, if you really need it, I can directly..."
"What do you want to drink?" Albert interrupted politely.
"Just like you."
After Bill noticed the waitress next to him, he smiled and said.
"Please give this gentleman a cappuccino." Albert said to the waitress.
After the waitress left, Bill lowered his voice and asked, "Can't we just send it over there?"
"It's easy to attract suspicion, and I don't want to get them in trouble, you know I'm in a bad situation. Oh, yes, it's a letter from Mrs. McDougal to an old friend."
"Okay, no problem, I'll help you finish this weekend." Bill hesitated for a moment, and agreed to do Albert this favor. Although he felt that what Albert did was superfluous, and it would be fine to just let the owl deliver the letter, there must be a special reason for Albert to arrange it this way.
Perhaps, this is more secretive and less likely to be seen by others?
Bill did not refuse. This matter is not difficult for him. Anyway, he only needs to go there, but... I believe that Furong should be willing to cooperate.
"By the way, I will get married next summer, remember to come to the wedding then." Bill said another thing.
"I will. However, I think you may have misunderstood just now,"
Albert took a sip of his coffee and explained to Bill with a smile.
"I just need a few hairs of yours, and borrow your identities. Then at a certain point in time, I hope you don't appear outside, so as not to arouse suspicion. It only takes about two hours."
After hearing Albert's words, Bill was stunned.
He never thought that things would turn out like this, he originally thought...
"Oh, okay! Of course it's okay." Bill nodded with a stiff face and agreed, he was really a little dizzy by Albert's coquettish operation.
I thought that the other party had something to ask me, but I didn't expect that they just wanted to borrow their identities.
Albert will naturally not let Bill deliver the letter. He will take Mrs. McDougall directly to St. Mungo's Magic Injury Hospital to find a therapist, and use Mrs. McDougal's relationship with Garen to settle the matter. Avoid any moths during the period.
As for pretending to be Bill and Furong, it is naturally to avoid being suspected, not to mention that the two are already engaged. People elope all the time.
Bill was confused by Albert, and told Fleur about it when he went back.
"Could it be that Albert's wife is pregnant, that's why he planned to secretly contact the therapist at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Sickness." The black wizard is offering a reward, if he appears directly in a crowded place like St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries, he will be easily targeted."
"It makes sense, maybe it's true," Bill suddenly realized, kissed his fiancée's forehead and said, "You are so smart, I was still depressed why you pretended to be pregnant."
"However, that guy is really cautious." Furong said softly.
Bill will get the hair from Fleur, put it in a glass bottle with his own hair, and plan to give it to Fred and George when he goes to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix tonight, anyway, he will be there on the weekend Stay at home and teach Furong English.
"By the way, Bill, I have something to discuss with you." Fleur said suddenly.
"What is it?"
"I plan to join the Order of the Phoenix?" Fleur said seriously.
"You want to join the Order of the Phoenix, but...would that be too dangerous?"
Bill hesitated. He didn't want to drag Fleur into this endless war. It would be too cruel for Fleur. Although the Order of the Phoenix needed more allies, he really didn't want to...
"If we get married, I don't think my situation will be much better than joining the Order of the Phoenix." Fleur looked at the hesitant Bill and reminded pretending to be annoyed, "Don't forget, I also participated in the Order of the Phoenix." The Triwizard Tournament is not as fragile as you imagine."
"Okay, you convinced me, let me ask Dumbledore about it for you."
Bill kissed Fleur's forehead again, and took the pretty girl into his arms. He knew that this matter had nothing to do with Furong, but she resolutely joined in, which made him feel a lot of guilt, especially since he could also see that his sister and mother didn't like Furong very much. , and the other party did not complain about it.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Mrs. Weasley appeared outside.
"Hope I didn't bother you."
After the door opened, Mrs. Weasley said to her eldest son: "Lupine just told me that the evening meeting has been moved forward. It seems to be because of some action. I heard that it was Fred and George's ghost idea."
"By the way, Mom, Fleur also plans to join the Order of the Phoenix." Bill said suddenly.
"Ah, this..."
Mrs. Weasley stopped, turned her head to look at Fleur in surprise, frowned slightly and said, "It's dangerous to join the Order of the Phoenix, and you have to get Dumbledore's consent first."
"I will." Bill nodded.
After having a simple dinner with Fleur at home, Bill hurried to No. 12 Grimmauld Place, Sirius just finished dinner, and Mrs. Weasley was helping to arrange the tableware. When Bill walked into the hall, Kingsley is distributing the documents to everyone: "Scrimpton has agreed to that plan, and intends to use this opportunity to ambush the Death Eaters. I think he is more eager than anyone else to reduce the power of the mysterious man."
"This is good news, isn't it?" Fred muttered, "It's better than Fudge, and cooperating with the Ministry of Magic can greatly reduce the threat of Death Eaters, although the guys at the Ministry of Magic may not necessarily Reliable, Scrimgeour seems to be aware of this problem."
Of course, all of this is due to Albert.
Until now, many members of the Order of the Phoenix are very curious about how Albert persuaded Scrimgeour, which is very difficult.
Who made the relationship between Scrimgeour and Dumbledore so ordinary?
"The success rate of this plan is very high. Even if it fails, it's just a matter of spending some time acting." Sirius agrees with this plan very much. Bad luck.
"Did he say anything?"
Moody put down the parchment and looked at Fred and George. He believed that it was definitely not Fred and George's idea, and it was probably Albert's idea.
Well, it's really in line with that guy's style of work. You don't need to do it yourself for revenge, and others are very enthusiastic to help him do it for him. In the whole process, he only needs to pay one hair for it.
"No, Albert has been very busy, and he seems to be planning to compile another Defense Against the Dark Arts book recently," Fred seemed to think of something, and added: "We are also very busy, the next Defense Against the Dark Arts book I will not participate in the training."
"By the way, we have a good thing here that should come in handy."
George continued what Fred said, and he smiled and took out a few very ordinary bags from his pocket, and then pulled out a metal rod from the bag in full view
"The Untraceable Stretching Curse?" Seeing this scene, Kingsley couldn't help but smiled wryly and said, "You guys really like to abuse this spell."
This is not the first time, he can always see traces of the Untraceable Stretching Curse from Fred and George, and there are various signs that they are abusing this spell.
"What is this?" Sirius was more interested in what George was holding.
"Communication pen, probably," George said uncertainly: "This thing is one of Albert's latest research results. Its use is similar to magic coins, but it is more clever than magic coins. It can be used to Pass the message"
Fred unfolded the metal rod, and on it were long strips of metal, about five inches long.
"This is an integrated version of the communication bookmark." George introduced to everyone: "You can use magic to change the text on the metal bar to achieve the effect of mutual communication. Although it is not as convenient as a double-sided mirror, this thing is easier to carry , and can send messages to many people at the same time.”
"The disadvantage is that once it is obtained by others, it is easy to expose. Of course, as long as you take care of the things, others will usually not notice this small bag that has been cast with a traceless stretching spell, just like this." George indicated Fred showed the others the magic of the little bag that had been charmed with no trace stretching.
Just pinch it on the clothes with the sticking spell, put it in after using the communication pen, and you can easily pick it up with **** when you hold it.
When Albert took out this thing, they were all amazed. They didn't expect that the communication bookmark could be used like this. Although they had seen Albert make a communication bookmark into a book before, it was very troublesome to use.
Now this thing is undoubtedly a simplified version, the cost is cheaper, and with it, it is very easy to send messages to each other.
"If you want to add another communication strip, you just need to disassemble it and add a matching communication strip inside." George suggested that everyone can pick it up and try it.
"It's really convenient!" Sirius guessed the manufacturing principle of this thing, but there are actually very few wizards who are as proficient in changing spells as Albert.
The difficulty of changing the number of ordinary coins is much easier than the current thing.
Several communication pens were quickly divided up by Sirius and his gang, and it happened that this operation could come in handy.
"If you think there is a problem, you can tell us."
"Are you going to sell this thing?" Kingsley asked with a frown.
"After this war is over, a low-end version should be sold." George didn't hide this fact, he believed that this thing would be very popular.
At least couples will definitely like it. He remembered that Albert used to use this thing to chat with his girlfriend before.
"I always feel that it's really changed a lot now." Moody fiddled with the communication bookmark in his hand, and said softly: "I didn't have so many auxiliary props before, and it wasn't so convenient."
Even if you use a double-sided mirror, you can't always find someone right away, and this thing will heat up after receiving a message, and you will notice it as long as you wear it on your body, and the message can still be kept, so you will definitely receive it .
If they bought these things in the last wizarding war, maybe the situation would be much better.
Albert brought them a lot of changes in thinking~IndoMTL.com~But the Death Eaters didn't know anything about it. This is why the Death Eaters have been deflated after Voldemort's recovery.
"Okay, it's almost time, and the snotty one should be here!" Sirius looked at the clock and reminded.
The meaning is obvious, that is, this matter must be kept from Snape.
Everyone's distrust of Mr. Spy has been biased by Sirius. In his words, there is no need to let Snape know.
Everyone hurriedly put away the parchment on the table, then brought cups and poured butter beer for everyone, and chatted casually about some trivial matters.
Bill also incidentally talked about his fiancée Fleur's plan to join the Order of the Phoenix, which was not objected by others.
It's just that Mrs. Weasley looks a little distressed.
In the last Wizarding War, her two older brothers both joined the Order of the Phoenix and died because of it. However, almost all of their family members now belong to the Order of the Phoenix.
