The Lonely Dragon of Hogwarts

John and Michael looked at each other.

Michael's eyes seemed to be asking John, is there anything wrong with this girl's mind?

John was also a little confused.

After all, if there is something wrong with Alice's brain, using [Forgetfulness] on her might turn her into an idiot.

Alice on the other side has not yet recovered from her excitement.

She said with excitement:

"You must be well prepared, right? What is your plan? Tell me and listen, and I will see if there is anything else that needs to be added."

"Uh-" Michael groaned, "Actually, we arrested you just to obtain information."

"In other words, you have nothing prepared now?" Alice asked, "Is it possible that you don't even know my family name?"

"I still know that."

John pursed his lips and said, "Lopez family, right?"

Alice looked at John and Michael with disgust and contempt.

She could guess that these two people really knew nothing about her family, and even the family name was only known through her name.

John and Michael were completely put off by this look.

The scene in front of me was really weird.

The captured subject begged the 'kidnapper' to join the gang, and also complained that the 'kidnapper' had collected too little information.

Is this reasonable?

"You two, listen carefully. My family, the Lopez family, comes from France. It is a pure-blood family famous for its superb level of alchemy."

Alice introduced seriously, "My family ancestors also had a marriage relationship with the master alchemist Nico Flamel.

And alchemy families like the Lopez family are extremely wealthy.

After all, alchemy is a costly science.

In a sense, the cost of learning it is even higher than Potions!

So this time for the Lopez family’s business, we will definitely make a lot of money! "

Hearing this, John and Michael's expressions became even weirder.

John waved his hand and interrupted Alice who wanted to continue speaking:

"I understand the truth, but I still don't understand, why would you want to join the gang? Isn't that your own family?"

"This is the misunderstanding caused by your weak intelligence."

Alice explained, "Strictly speaking, I am the only one left in the current Lopez family. The count named Marion who is currently staying in the manor to hold banquets and is nominally my mother Madam, she is actually my stepmother.

I have no blood relationship with her.

She is a true fan of nobility, and dreams every day about how she can one day become a real wizard aristocrat.

It was for this reason that she chose to marry my father.

It's a pity that after my father died, she still couldn't really integrate into the French wizarding aristocracy.

Therefore, she could only bring me to the country of Yu. "

"So that's why she holds high-class banquets and parties so frequently and sends out invitations." Michael raised his eyebrows and smiled, "She is eager to introduce herself to the pure-blood wizards in the country and wants to integrate into them. The upper class circle of wizards in the country.

But in the final analysis, she is just an ordinary person, so she looks like a nouveau riche. "

"aweason!"

Alice said, "But she still has some cleverness. For example, in order to maintain her image as a good wife and mother in front of outsiders, she has always pretended to love me very much.

But in fact, she has been suppressing and treating me harshly, for fear that I, the true heir of the Lopez family, would go back to seize the Lopez family property. "

John glanced at the carriageway in front of him:

"I can indeed see that."

Alice had obviously just returned from King's Cross Station.

Although it is very far away from King's Cross Station, as wizards, they have too many means to use on their way.

Pegasus, broomsticks, Floo network, Apparition, house elves...

However, Alice came here in an ordinary carriage with a bumpy ride, and the driver was a crudely made alchemy doll with no protection at all.

It is absolutely impossible to say that I have not been wearing small shoes.

"Not only that, she also came up with a good idea recently." Alice continued, "That is to marry me to a local pure-blood wizard aristocrat in the country.

She felt that after such a marriage, she would be able to integrate into the local circle and obtain an improvement in status.

At the same time, she could also drive me out, someone who might rob her of her property. It was like killing two birds with one stone. "

"Magic tells me that what you said is most likely the truth." Michael smiled and nodded. "Now I can understand why you want to join us to blackmail your family."

Alice also made no secret and said directly:

"This is not just for revenge. I want to leave the Lopez family, but I also don't want to give up learning alchemy, so I need a lot of money."

She looked at John and said, "The cooperation with you in the Forbidden Forest was quite pleasant before. As an old friend, you won't refuse to cooperate with me again, right? As long as we can succeed this time, we can both reap a lot of benefits. And I can complete my plan and leave the Lopez family."

"One last question."

John narrowed his eyes and said, "Cooperation is generally based on equal conditions for both parties. As our captive now, what qualifications do you have to discuss cooperation with us?"

Alice smiled and raised two fingers and said:

"There are two reasons. One is because, based on my relationship with that woman, if I didn't actively cooperate, you wouldn't be able to get too many Galleons by simply kidnapping me. After all, although she also wants to marry me off, But at the same time, I am also a burden and threat to her. She doesn't mind letting me die inexplicably.

The second reason is that there is a special secret treasure in the Lopez family.

That is the source of the Lopez family's power and wealth.

Even the goblins want that secret treasure. "

As soon as these words came out, John and Michael's expressions changed instantly.

They all know that this may be the reason why goblins, even goblins from other countries, come to the Lopez family banquet every week.

"What exactly is the so-called secret treasure? And what does it do?"

Michael asked quickly.

However, Alice smiled mysteriously when she heard this:

"That's a magical gem we call the Lopez Gem. It has the effect of activating matter and giving it magical power, and it's the most precious treasure of the Lopez family.

If you are interested in it, you should cooperate with me.Because without me, it would be impossible for you, as outsiders, to have access to the Lopez family’s secret treasure.

The fairies can prove this to me.With their greedy and unscrupulous nature, if possible, they would have taken it away long ago. There is no need to continue to flatter the woman. "
