Chapter 884: It makes sense
Chapter 884: It makes sense
"That woman was absolutely deliberate."
In the lobby of Hogwarts Castle, the girls who have seen the latest issue of the Daily Prophet were all furious, because Rita Skeeter said nothing about Albert's existence in her article about the Triwizard Tournament. Not mentioned.
The front-page news of this issue of "Daily Prophet" is not so much a report on the Triwizard Tournament, but rather an exclusive interview with Harry Potter. The first page is directly occupied by Harry's photos, and the whole article is about Harry Potter, which is a jealous depiction of his personal life.
As for the names of Boothbatten and Durmstrang warriors side by side with Harry Potter, they only appear in the last line of this article, and even the names are deliberately misspelled.
How does this newspaper keep Albert's supporters from angry?
In their eyes, what is Harry?
It was a thief who used shameful ways to divide the glory of the Albert warrior.
As a result, on the day the newspaper was published, many students sent protest letters to the Daily Prophet, and even senior students sent yelling letters, burning the quill on Rita Skeeter’s desk to ashes. The special reporter almost tilted his nose with anger.
Not mentioning Albert is not her problem. It was Albert who refused to report it. But where did the students at Hogwarts know about these things? How could the editors of the "Daily Prophet" know about these things? On to Rita Skeeter.
"That guy definitely did it on purpose!"
Rita Skeeter was wronged, but she didn't say it.
Facing the angry girls in front of him, Albert, who finished reading the Daily Prophet, was calm.
"Yes, deliberately, we should continue to send yelling letters to Rita Skeeter." Fred started to booze, anyway, he also looked at Rita Skeeter very upset, and that woman often looked for him. Father troubles.
"Actually, I told Rita Skeeter not to mention my name in the newspaper." Albert put down the newspaper and said calmly.
The other people around were suddenly dumbfounded. What does this mean?
What is it? I told Rita Skeeter not to mention my name in the newspaper.
"why?"
"Literally, you should have all read Rita Skeeter's article to see what Harry Potter looks like in her pen." Albert turned to the second page and pointed to the newspaper One line said, "Listen to this paragraph carefully:
I think my parents gave me strength. I know that if they can see me now, they will be very proud of me.
…Yes, sometimes at night, I still cry for them, and I don’t feel ashamed to admit it.
…I know that nothing can hurt me in the game, because they guard me in the dark..."
"To be honest, I sympathize with Potter." Albert paused, and continued, "I dare say he wouldn't say such a shameful thing. It must have been written by Rita Skeeter on purpose. Attracting everyone’s attention is simply disgusting, because it appears in her article, just don’t show it."
This article is simply the public execution of Harry, and it will definitely become the dark history of the savior Potter in the future.
Albert put down the newspaper and said, "I think Potter would be ashamed to find a place to dig a hole and bury himself if he reads this article!"
Everyone looked at each other and looked at the newspaper report about Harry. Suddenly they felt that Albert's words really made sense. Rita Skeeter liked to process other people's words so that he could report it. It would be better not to be reported. , At least there will be no disgusting things in the newspapers.
Albert’s remarks quickly spread through the school, and everyone did understand, but the act of sending evil spells to Rita Skeeter was still not going to stop, and by the way, Harry was hated together. Recently, more students wear the "Harry Smelly Stool" badge.
Hermione also became the subject of discussion by the girls, because she became Harry’s first love, and Rita Skeeter mentioned in the newspaper that Hermione’s amazing beauty became a reason for many girls to laugh at Hermione and giggle. The Slytherin girl even laughed at Hermione as a chipmunk.
As one of the few female friends who have a good relationship with Albert, Hermione herself is the envy of many girls. This article by Rita Skeeter directly attracted a wave of firepower to Hermione, but she didn't care too much. , Still living his own life every day, ignoring those gossips.
Harry couldn’t do it to Hermione’s level. This report attracted a lot of firepower to him and made him very annoyed, because Harry had never said a lot of things that made him disgusting. Harry knew exactly who Rita Skeeter really was.
"Do you want a handkerchief, Potter, lest you cry in the transformation class?" Malfoy had ridiculed Harry more than once, in order to avenge the speechless revenge Harry refuted the last time.
"certainly."
Harry scowled and walked towards Malfoy who had just laughed at him.
Malfoy was also a little surprised. Probably he didn't expect Harry Potter to walk towards him. Gore and Crabbe hurriedly stood in front of Harry, trying to prevent Harry from approaching Malfoy.
"Aren't you going to give me a handkerchief?"
Harry looked at the cowering Malfoy with a triumphant smile on his mouth. This was a trick he learned from Albert, and it really worked.
As long as I am not embarrassed, you will be embarrassed.
"Get out of Potter, who is going to give you a handkerchief." Malfoy waved his hand in disgust, as if trying to drive the alien beast away.
"You just said you want to give it to me." Harry took out his wand from his pocket and quickly chanted the spell to stop Gore and Crabbe, and forced it towards Malfoy.
During the recent period, he has been trained by Black and Lupin, and the skills of using magic have been much better than those of the students in the school who don't use magic frequently.
"You guy?" Before Malfoy took out his wand, Harry stared at him again. He reached out disgustedly, took out his handkerchief from Malfoy's pocket and put it in his pocket, and said with a smile: " Thank you for your handkerchief so that I don’t have to worry about crying in the transformation class."
Everyone was stunned by Harry's actions. They didn't expect Harry to admit it like this and did such an incredible thing.
At least, no one would dare to taunt him with this matter in the future.
This scene also stunned Hermione and Ron.
"you…"
"Albert’s advice is that we should not indulge these guys. Ignoring them will only make them gain an inch. If you want them to shut up, you must show a strong enough attitude. I think what he said is really reasonable, Albert. I'll be a good teacher in the future." Harry was in a good mood, and after duel with the Eight-Eyed Giant Spider, he suddenly became more confident.
As for the handkerchief, of course I don’t plan to ask for it anymore. I will return the handkerchief to Malfoy when he waits for Malfoy’s birthday.
By the way, when is Malfoy's birthday?
"I thought you didn't like him." Hermione said tentatively.
"It’s not that I hate him, it’s just that I’m not familiar with him before, but you can’t deny that he has always been reliable and a good friend." In fact, it was Sirius and Lupin who wanted him to have a good relationship with Albert. After all, Albert Te has always taken good care of his friends, and the two who worked with him deeply felt this.
Even Harry had to admit this, and Albert helped clean up a lot of Hagrid's mess.
After changing his mentality, Harry suddenly fell in love with this new friend, at least Albert's proposal helped Harry solve a lot of troubles.
Since the handkerchief incident, there have been fewer people taunting Harry, because they found that when they laughed at Harry, the other party could laugh and talk to them.
For example, when someone ridiculed Harry when he became a top student in the school, Harry would say that I have become a warrior in the school, so why not be a top student?
Anyway, Harry felt that his face had changed a lot, and he also liked to walk directly to the other side and talk to others, watching the person who had mocked him speechlessly, Harry was in a particularly happy mood.
Albert had heard of Porter's deeds a long time ago, but the opponent's record surprised him. How long did it take to hold it back and burst out in one breath?
Albert doesn't care about this. He is now accompanying Fred, George and Lee Jordan to inspect Joko's joke shop, absorbing the advantages of this joke spot, and preparing to apply these advantages to their future joke shop.
For this reason, the three got up early in the morning, and after breakfast, they hurried to Hogsmeade on a flying broomstick.
Why ride a flying broomstick?
Naturally because the speed of riding a broom is fast and it saves time.
Since the technique of Albert's non-marking stretching curse gradually matured, he helped the three people make three non-marking stretching pockets as their Christmas gifts. Now it is considered to give them gifts in advance, with this magical storage pocket, many things become a lot easier.
The four belonged to the first group of students who arrived in Hogsmeade, where they could observe Joko’s shop carefully as planned. Fred was chatting with Joko, diverting his attention, and by the way paid for the big dung bombs bought by a few people along with a few other joke items.
"I think the doll that vomits candy can learn from..."
Albert took George’s notes and read some of the lessons mentioned above. Joko’s joke shop is indeed a bit outdated. Perhaps this is the magic world. The slow-paced life is not like the rapid changes in the previous life. Many things are It takes a long time to change.
"Actually, you can also learn from other stores and use them if we can come in handy."
Albert thinks that a joke is best to bring customers a novelty, fun, and happiness, just like entering the world of fairy tales.
However, this sounds like dreaming. The size of a shop is very limited. In the case that the non-marking stretching spell cannot be used to expand the shop blatantly, how to place the goods in the shop is a question worth thinking about.
"Let's go, let's go to other shops." Fred thought it made sense.
"I'm afraid I have to go first." Albert took out his pocket watch and looked at the time and said, "I will have a date later."
"Dating."
"Dating."
"Dating."
"I'm really envious." The three said in unison.
"If you are envious, go find a girlfriend by yourself." Albert noticed that Isobel was standing on the street not far away and waving to this side.
"Forget it, I think opening a store is more important."
"It was a disaster there."
"We are not like entering the Ministry of Magic to get angry."
The three waved to Albert and went to Devis Bans' shop. Since Albert's funding, they would naturally not give up the opportunity to show off.
As for falling in love, it is simply a waste of their precious time.
Wasting time is killing money.
Looking at the back of the three people leaving, Albert sighed lightly, but he was able to understand the three people's thoughts. If you don’t have a plug-in, you probably have to work hard for the future!
"What do you think?"
Isobel walked towards this side, spread his hands and gave Albert a hug.
"Where do you want to go?" Albert asked, holding Isobel's hand, "Mrs. Pattif Teahouse?"
"Let’s go to the Fengya wizard clothing store to pick out Christmas gifts!" Isabel pulled Albert towards the Fengya wizard clothing store.
Albert chooses gifts for his old friends every year. For example, in recent years, he has given Dumbledore a pair of weird wool socks.
"It seems that you have encountered a lot of upsets recently." Isobel noticed that Albert was distracted when choosing things.
"It's all caused by the Christmas ball. Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too popular." Albert murmured, "Especially after you graduate..."
Albert chose a lot of wool products, such as woolen clothes, woolen hats, woolen socks, woolen gloves and woolen scarves.
"So, you are entangled by the girls?" Isobel raised his eyebrows.
"Well, it doesn't count, but there is a more difficult guy." Albert had a headache thinking of Yanila.
"That Miss Yanila?" Isabel is not ignorant, Katrina writes to her every half month.
"Yes, the singer lady, I didn't expect that she actually went to Hogwarts." Albert seemed to think of something, suddenly turned off the topic and said, "Next summer, I plan to let them stay quiet. Leaving Britain quietly."
"Next summer?" Isabel frowned and said, "Then our...will they participate?"
"Of course I will participate."
It took the two half an hour to choose gifts, including those for their own family. Isobel also picked a pair of woolen gloves for his sister.
Many girls who came to shop here showed surprised expressions when they saw them. Maybe they didn't expect Albert to buy things with others.
After leaving the Fengya brand wizard clothing store, Isabel found a time to put everything in a seamlessly stretched leather bag, and then went shopping with Albert at the Honey Duke candy store. However, Honey Duke candies are crowded with people, so they plan to go to the Three Broomsticks Bar for a drink first.
When the two were about to walk into the Three Broomsticks bar, they heard a familiar voice: "Is she your girlfriend?"
