Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 232
The "hardworking and honest" goblin Wicky finally got rid of the toil around the world.

To be honest, before this, he never thought that Britain would make him feel so safe.

Despite the rumors circulating throughout the wizarding world - Dumbledore, Ariana, and Grindelwald, among them Dumbledore is staying in England, many people are speculating whether he is really a White Lord, Otherwise, how could he be able to kill his own sister with his own hands?

But well - who cares!

At least in England, Witch won't have to deal with Toby's old friends alone!

He/she/they are amazing!
Almost killed Wicky!

He really never thought that he would come back alive one day, and he had wondered countless times whether he had misjudged the person——

Perhaps compared to the benefits of cooperating with Toby, the possibility of being assassinated in advance is higher?
"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Toby, who was sitting opposite, said indignantly: "I think you either want to raise your salary, or you are drunk in broad daylight."

"Salary?" Witch raised his dusty face and asked, "I thought I was a partner."

"There is no partner." Toby said ruthlessly: "And the reason why these things can be done has nothing to do with us. One is because we have captured the interesting key point of Grindelwald, and the other is It is the Black Devil Foundation, and it can also be said to be the high-level organization of Hogwarts—maybe we should find an opportunity to merge the newspaper into the school, so that "The Quibbler" can officially become the school newspaper, and the school magazine alone is not enough Use. There are also a lot of students, and they can influence many adult wizards."

Toby's thinking began to become loose again.

When he came back to his senses, he found that Wicky was secretly memorizing something in a small notebook.In the blink of an eye, the notebook and quill in Wicky's hand disappeared again.

"What are you hiding?" Toby asked suspiciously.

"A little insight." Wicky showed a dangerous smile: "I really like your novel ideas, can you tell me where you learned them from?"

Toby said without hesitation: "Of course it's a Muggle. I'm a Muggle-born myself, and later found out that apart from not being able to use magic, they also have many advantages."

"[They]?" Witch emphasized Toby's address for Muggles: "Instead of [us]?"

"It's not anymore." Toby waved his hand and said, "It's not anymore since the day I came to Hogwarts. If Muggles really find out that I have these special abilities, I might be hunted all over the world."

Witch obviously didn't believe it. He didn't think that Toby, who could live to this day, would be a match for those guys who couldn't even hold a wand steadily.

Toby just shook his head and replied: "Otherwise, how do you think the "Secrecy Act" came about? Isn't it just to avoid Muggles. But compared to this, I am more curious about how the wizards of the past managed to unite Yes—there are wizards from all over the world, it is really hard to imagine how difficult it will be to accomplish this."

"Actually, not all of them." Witch told the history of goblins: "At that time, there were many goblins who were unwilling to give up their property in the Muggle world, but for some reason, even they agreed."

"It's really strange." Toby fell into thinking again, and he murmured: "Do you think a goblin is the kind of creature who would willingly give up the gold in his hand?"

Before Witch could answer, Toby said to himself: "Of course not, otherwise you wouldn't be able to run around with such a big risk, and there were two goblin rebellions—they didn't During the secrecy law, almost all creatures in the magical world were united at that moment, and if they changed their minds a little, wouldn't history be rewritten?"

"What do you mean?" Witch asked.

Toby's eyes were full of regret: "Muggles in the [-]th century were much more unbeatable than they are now. Coupled with the unprecedented cohesion of wizards at that time-this is something that two generations of Dark Lords have not been able to do." ... almost, almost, almost, almost - to overthrow the world and make Muggles servants and slaves of wizards."

"I would be very happy to see that scene." Wicky sneered: "In that case, maybe I will see you begging pitifully at the door of the Veil Bar-don't forget your identity, Muggle-born , if the magic world really becomes like this, do you think it is possible for you to turn around?"

Toby wasn't angry either. He thought about it for a while, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "It's almost impossible to turn over, but there is a high chance that you will become a more terrifying devil than Momoran, and mess up your bar." It’s a mess, and maybe it will kill everyone in the room by the way—no way, who made me so talented?”

Witch immediately fell silent, and leaned back vigilantly, obviously thinking that Toby now has a high probability of doing so.

"Tell me about your experience in Europe." Toby conjured up a large bottle of lemonade and refilled the two empty glasses: "There are also rumors about the relationship between Dumbledore and Grindelwald—— What did that become?"

Witch showed shrewd eyes, and he grinned and said, "It couldn't be better."

He was referring to the business side.

Gellert Grindelwald's story is unexpectedly "popular" in Europe.Of course, this description is derogatory to a large extent. Grindelwald’s remnants have long been arrested, and no one dares to wave the flag for his “noble and respectable” ideals—even if there are, they are at most sent. These are just some anonymous letters. I think there are some omissions in the reports, and I hope they can be corrected.

Toby and Al didn't hear a word.

With the concerted efforts of the two, they smeared Grindelwald to death, portraying him as stupider than Fudge, more shameless than Skeeter, and more toad-like than Umbridge - whatever it is useful Write down what is useless first.

Occasionally, European wizard readers like this kind of story, and they also don't care whether it is true or not, as long as it is interesting-of course, this kind of interest must be based on belittling Grindelwald.

No way, Grindelwald's reputation in the entire magic world is not very good, and he is mentioned as the place where he first made his fortune - Europe.Too many readers' immediate or indirect relatives have been tortured and killed by Grindelwald and his minions.

Compared with Voldemort, Grindelwald has caused a lot of bloody incidents, and it is not easy to get a good impression by nature.

On the contrary, Dumbledore is different.

Dumbledore in the story is described as a responsible elder brother who not only achieved exceptionally good grades while concentrating on his studies, but also took extra care of his younger sister.Then he was disturbed by the appearance of Grindelwald, which caused waves in the originally peaceful life.

It is worth mentioning that no one knew that Dumbledore and Grindelwald had a brief affair, and the Ministry of Magic did not make this news public - perhaps it was so outrageous that even they did not believe it authenticity.Or maybe it was because Grindelwald simply didn't tell Scrimgeour about it, and didn't let him convey this part.

All in all, Toby also had Al erase this part, describing Dumbledore and Grindelwald as friends like Godric Gryffindor and Salazar Slytherin.It's just that Dumbledore's image is more positive, while Grindelwald is much more annoying, and will always get into trouble: the frog in the grass has become more than ten times bigger, and it was almost discovered by the Muggles near Zhuangzi; or Or just plain stupid.

I believe that no one will doubt this, after all, it is Grindelwald who is being imprisoned in Nurmengard now, and it is Dumbledore who is compared with him.

"The Dark Lord and the White Wizard" continues to be serialized.

Toby and Al have thought more than once that it would be great if Lockhart was not Grindelwald's subordinate, and now is the time when he is needed.

For this kind of long story, Al's writing power is still not as amazing as Lockhart-just look at the sales.

In addition, the two books "Ancient Magic" and "Ancient Magic and Magic Circle" finally entered the top [-] bestseller list for the first time.

Thanks to the simplicity and clarity of the wish box, many wizards have long understood that besides the four Nat's loss prizes, these two books are the most unacceptable-the writing is really bad!Not a good reading experience at all!

Did the author save the life of the boss of the publishing house?
uh. yes.

Toby did save the life of the boss of the publishing company. At first, the dwarf boss thought that archaeology was something interesting, so Toby taught him a good lesson.

When the boss was in danger, Toby slowly mentioned "I wrote a book recently" and so on. The more anxious the boss was, the slower Toby walked.

So, from now on, as long as Toby can write a book, there will be a publishing house waiting for him.

It can also be said that when he was tried by the Ministry of Magic, Fudge investigated Toby's case history from various countries, which was basically obtained in this way.

Very tricky one.

It was only because of the guarantee of the goblins that Toby was not deported from the country. He would not leave the country until he was satisfied with the archaeology. By the way, he stuffed the fighters who followed him into the nearest trash can.

"Oh, yes, there are anti-demon glasses!"

Witch said with bright eyes, "That's really amazing! No one wants to know what their pets think. We chose a suitable country and received unprecedented enthusiasm for buying. It is said that in the black market——"

"Stop, stop!" Toby interrupted suddenly: "Don't let the Black Devil Foundation get involved with the black market!"

"Dark Devil Foundation." Wicky said pretendingly, "Are you serious? Just because of this name, you don't want to be associated with the dark side of the wizarding world?"

"That will have an impact on the reputation of Hogwarts." Toby said solemnly, with a serious expression on his face, without any trace of acting.

He was imitating Dumbledore when he was serious.

Witch looked him up and down: "You really look like the headmaster of Hogwarts, there is a picture of him in the Daily Prophet, it looks really—"

"Have momentum?" Toby asked with a quivering corner of his mouth.

"No." Witch shook his head and said, "It's all scary. Goblins can tell what kind of people they should deal with. Neither you nor Dumbledore should be in this range."

He thought about it seriously, and then said: "Malfoy is quite suitable, enough insidious and cunning, but not very capable. Perhaps it is because of his lack of ability that he can only use this little trick."

Toby was not very interested in this non-staff employee, and he continued to ask about his anti-demon glasses: "Is there anything wrong with the glasses?"

"There are a few." Witch took out a small notebook and said. By the way, he was covered with pockets that he didn't know where to open, and he could always take out things from them, such as biting kale, chocolate frogs, Once Toby heard the scream of a young mandrake - thankfully it was immature, otherwise it would have almost killed Toby.

"Let me see." Witch put another pair of half-moon lenses on the bridge of his nose, the style of glasses is now rumored.For the sake of convenience, Toby took a lot of these glasses from the Room of Requirement back then, and just used them for experiments, so that Al would not be seen through by these people.

"It's not a big problem. Basically, the problem is caused by the inconsistency between the pet and the owner's mind."

Witch flipped through the pages and read: "Ms. Stitch has a silver-white cat with beautiful fur, but when she put on her glasses, she found that the cat has been treating her like a servant. As long as you give a little hint, Stitch will obey obediently and never get bored."

"And then?" Toby asked as he squeezed the lemon juice hard, and the taste was not strong enough or sour enough.

Witch glanced up at the glass bottle emitting white smoke and said, "Then Ms. Stitch put these glasses on for Maolizi."

"What?" Toby asked puzzled, "I didn't know that the anti-demon glasses also have the function of allowing pets to read the minds of wizards."

"No." Witch's expression became weird: "But Ms. Stitch said it would make her feel more strange."

After a pause, he added dryly: "She is a lady who likes to stimulate."

Toby frowned in disgust. He stood up very naturally, walked to Al on the sofa, helped him put pillows, and spread a small quilt to prevent Al from catching cold while sleeping.

Then he waved his wand to let the traces of Al's playfulness dissipate little by little, the snack bag flew into the trash can, and the dolls were piled up next to Al's head, and took away the knife from the cursed doll's hand so as not to It can't help but goug out Al's eyes.

After finishing all this, Toby sat back behind the desk. He shook his head in dissatisfaction and said, "Why can't our client act like a normal person? What kind of stimulation does she want?"

"Well." Wicky also became disgusted: "Probably treat pets as family members, it's disgusting."

"Huh?" Toby immediately raised his head: "Are you talking about me?"

"No." Wicky shook his head: "You are much more disgusting than that, you are almost like twins. Don't tell me that you two grew up together."

Like many others, Wicky had no idea of ​​Al's origins, but was impressed by the distinctive Niffler.

"How is that possible."

Toby said casually: "I'm a Muggle-born, how could I have had a magic pet since I was a child—but, thinking about it carefully, I really wanted to have a snuffer, when I was in school."

"At that time, you planned to use Niuxiu to do archaeology?" Wicky asked.

"That's not considered taking advantage." Toby waved his hand and said:
"Al is much more fond of archeology than I am, and it is the one that likes archeology the most."
