Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

"Bastard!" Kingsley Shacklebolt punched the pillar in Scrimgeour's office.

"How is Frank's injury?" Scrimgeour asked the Auror who came to report.

"He didn't suffer any injuries. He was just touched by the rats in Knockturn Alley and all his valuables were touched. He even lost his wand. However, his memory..."

The Auror said and shook his head, "The therapist at St. Mungo's said that he suffered a very strong forgetting spell and may not be able to recover. In addition, he may suffer from mild amnesia or memory confusion in a short period of time." symptom."

"Can it get better?"

"The therapist said the problem isn't too big and it should get better."

"That's good." Scrimgeour breathed a sigh of relief.

"Get everyone around who is staring at the Supreme Potion back first."

"Why?!" Kingsley shouted angrily, and the strong black man slapped his hands on Scrimgeour's desk, "Rufus! One of our brothers was injured just now, don't you want to avenge him?!"

"Calm down, Shacklebolt, this isn't like you."

Kingsley took a deep breath and spit it out, "How many years has it been? How many years have we seen something like this happen? Our brother was injured, but we can only sit and wait, unable to do anything. .”

"Patience, Shacklebolt." Scrimgeour said, "Didn't you always advise me to be patient in the past?"

"But Frank's on my team!"

"Patience, our enemy is very cunning! He has proven this more than once. If you underestimate him or act recklessly, he will bite you back!"

Having said this, Scrimgeour shook his head, "It's really strange that such a person, who is in Hogwarts, is not from Slytherin."

"Frank's hiding place was destroyed, leaving no evidence." Scrimgeour sighed again, "Obviously, Frank should have discovered something before Murphy noticed it, and then destroyed the evidence."

"If I had known earlier, I should have asked him to report it to you as soon as he had any clues."

"I can't blame you for this. The more frequent you report, the easier it is for people to discover. I agreed to the rule of regular reporting." Kingsley's anger seemed to have calmed down and he said calmly.

"But now, our clues are gone again. Is there anything else you can do, Kingsley?"

"Maybe we should arrest him first. He is only nineteen years old. I believe he will not survive our interrogation!"

"When you say this, it sounds a bit like Alastor. I don't know how his retirement life is going."

Kingsley smiled. He naturally knew that such a tough approach would not work. Because of the money offensive, Murphy had considerable influence in the Ministry of Magic, and it would be difficult to achieve his goal by forcing a confession.

He pondered for a while and paced back and forth in the room. "Do you remember what Lucius said about the name of the company that Murphy opened in the Muggle world?"

"You mean the umbrella? What do you mean?"

"Since it's impossible to check it from the potion shop, how about starting from the Muggle side? According to Lucius, that company is very famous in the Muggle world, so it shouldn't be difficult to find."

"Good idea!" Scrimgeour immediately understood what the other party meant, "You reminded me, who is the Auror next to the Muggle Prime Minister now?"

"Gadwin Robards."

"Ah, Robards. He's a fool, and he's been fooled by that lady."

"However, he should still be of some use. Send someone to inform him and ask him to explain it to the Muggle Prime Minister... No, you cannot inform the Muggle Prime Minister. Let him use Muggle power in private to assist in the investigation. Send another person It should be enough for an Auror to assist him."

"Why not inform the Muggle Prime Minister? That would be more efficient, right?"

"If we rely on their power, it will appear that we are very incompetent, and it may cause trouble for future interactions between the two worlds."

"I understand, I'll inform him right away."

…

"Mr. Murphy, here is the spell and corresponding formula for the anti-thief waterfall you want."

Knockturn Alley, Song of the Sirens, Goblin Locke hands a letter to Murphy.

The latter opened it and looked at it, "Thank you, Locke."

"You're too kind, Mr. Murphy." Locke took a sip of his beer, "It's my honor to serve you."

Murphy nodded, "There is one more thing I want you to help me inquire about."

"You say."

"Do you know where there is a seller raising elves? I'm going to buy a few."

This request is quite common. Newly wealthy people like Murphy often have the idea of ​​​​buying a house elf. "Usually every once in a while, someone will sell their own elves. Usually they may be newborns. Or to be abandoned.”

"If you need it, I will pay attention to it for you, but usually the price of house elves is not cheap..."

"The price is not an issue, but the quantity I want is quite large. Is there any centralized breeding company that specializes in selling elves?"

"This..." Locke was a little stunned. He had never heard of such a request. "How many do you want?"

"At least... fifty."

House elves have magic and are hard-working, so they are much more efficient than Muggles. However, the research institute is really not small. Without dozens of house elves, it will definitely not be able to take care of it.

Fifty!

Locke was shocked, his employer was always so unexpected!

He wanted to ask, why do you need so many elves?

Open another magic school? !

"This may be difficult, but I'll ask it for you."

…

Back at the Supreme Potion Store, Murphy had someone make an access control, and all employees needed to pass through the access control when going to and from get off work.

The access control area will automatically spray an anti-thief waterfall to prevent anyone from sneaking in again.

In addition to the Supreme Potion, Murphy also brought this access control system to the mansion. From now on, all people entering and exiting the mansion and the magic research institute will pass by a thief-proof waterfall.

The institute's four major specialized laboratories, libraries, conference rooms and other places have also added an anti-theft waterfall. Although it will temporarily cause everyone a bit of confusion and trouble, it is regarded as a disinfection measure.

After making these arrangements, Laura Kruger found him and said, "Director, there is a results presentation meeting today. Do you want to attend?"

She has now been appointed by Murphy as his assistant to the director, responsible for controlling the research direction of the entire institute so that it always moves towards the goals set by Murphy.

"Oh?" Murphy was very interested, "Did you get results so soon?"

It was less than a month before the institute officially opened, and Murphy didn't expect these Muggle researchers to reap rewards so soon.

"The paper just passed the peer review at the institute yesterday. We think his thoughts and ideas should be very valuable. But in fact, this is only of theoretical value, so it is just for you to listen to and check."

"Okay, what's the name of the paper?"

""Some Thoughts on the Path of Wizards to Become Gods"."

hiss……

Is it so big when you come up?
