Hogwarts: The Wizarding World's First Capitalist

"What did you say?" After a few seconds of stunned silence, Kevin Lestrange looked at the two of them in surprise, as if he had seen a ghost.

He asked in disbelief.

"Is the news accurate? Are you sure that the cowards in the French Ministry of Magic are actually bringing Aurors and all the senior officials here to confront us directly."

"They actually had the guts to do this. Have you checked the identities of the Muggles you killed?"

"I suspect that you have killed the mistresses of some of them. Otherwise, why would there be such a big reaction?"

"what???"

"what???"

Hearing this, both faces were filled with question marks. After a brief thought, Mr. Leonard denied it.

"Probably not. More than 90% of the Muggles in the bar at the time were men, and the rest were basically staff."

"Except for one waiter who was probably under 30, the rest of the drunks and customers were basically over 40 years old."

"A middle-aged man in his 40s with thinning hair and an out-of-shape figure. I know some people in the French Ministry of Magic have strong tastes, but they are not so perverted."

"That must be because I was thinking in the wrong direction."

"Not necessarily, hard to say!!"

Upon hearing Mr. Leonard's conclusion, Kevin Lestrange and Mr. Leon Wang immediately showed two completely opposite reactions.

Kevin Lestrange thought that the other party's conclusion was logical and that he was probably thinking in the wrong direction.

Mr. Leon Wang frowned and began to shake his head, his expression distorted as if he was recalling someone eating shit in front of him.

His behavior immediately aroused the curiosity and attention of the two people, and they asked at the same time.

"What new discoveries have you made?"

"It seems you have seen more disgusting scenes."

Faced with the simultaneous questions from the two, Mr. Leon Wang paused for a few seconds. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly couldn't help but vomit.

After dry heaving several times and catching his breath, he could only wave his hands helplessly and say.

"I can't open my mouth to go into the specific details, so I'll give you a brief description anyway."

"Not to mention a middle-aged man in his 40s with thinning hair and a distorted figure. Even if the level of disgust was twice as high as this, some people in the French Ministry of Magic would still be able to do it."

"Even in the Ministry of Magic of other countries, some people play games more extravagantly than this, and their targets are not even limited to humans."

"So now you can understand why I can't continue working in the Auror Corps of the International Confederation of Wizards."

"When I saw those scenes, you told me not to use violence against them. I showed the utmost restraint by not killing the captain at that time."

“It’s really an eye-opener!!”

"It seems that I am also gentle and peaceful!!"

After just hearing such a simple description, the other two couldn't help but exclaim at the same time.

The three of them were silent for nearly a minute, and finally Mr. Leonard spoke first.

"Okay, now that we have basically determined the cause, let's discuss how to deal with it."

"The first question is whether we should inform Miss Grindelwald or other people present of this news."

"Secondly, no matter what their purpose is, they are coming towards us now. I need to ask how strong their force is."

"At least from my personal perspective, I still hope that some of them can pay the price for their orders."

“You are really too hypocritical.” Hearing this, Mr. Leon Wang spoke first.

"Killing is killing. Those guys lost their lives at our hands. Their lives should be counted on ours."

"Why do you have to be so hypocritical and evasive? Are you trying to say that they didn't die because of the two of us?"

"It's a bit too hypocritical to say that his life was taken away by the dark politics and cruel orders."

"You are indeed very hypocritical, sir." Upon hearing this, Mr. Leonard was not angry, but laughed happily.

He stared at his partner with a smile and spoke in a very sincere tone.

"If only everyone in this world could be as good as you, stick to your heart and do what you want without wavering."

"Then there is no need for hypocrisy. In a sense, hypocrisy is the evil in human nature. It is the last bit of respect we should maintain in the face of the good in human nature."

"Of course I won't deny the evil in me, but it's not my responsibility, and I'm not willing to bear even a little bit of it."

"You two continue discussing philosophy here." Looking at the two people talking to each other, Kevin Lestrange turned away impatiently.

Just before leaving, he warned in a serious tone.

"Until we get precise orders from Miss Grindelwald, the lives of those guys are guaranteed."

"And be especially careful not to use those so-called non-lethal means. Mr. Leon Wang, please keep an eye on that guy."

This order was so peculiar that it created a violent Auror famous throughout the European continent.

Go and look after an International Auror who has been rated as an advanced service with a smile for five consecutive years.

But even though the order sounded a bit absurd, the two people who received the order simply smiled at each other.

Then they leaned against the wall and began to guard this main passage.

On the other side, Kevin Lestrange had already come to the center of the stage, kneeling on one knee and speaking with his head down.

"Dear Madam, I have an important situation to report to you."

"Keep your head up, Kevin, you don't have to do this."

A cheerful voice came from above his head, causing Kevin Lestrange's body to shake. This was the first time the other party had called him by his name directly.

Instead of calling himself Mr. Lestrange, he had imagined this moment countless times, but he had never thought of it on such an occasion.

He was so honored and blessed to be in the center of the building that he stood there for a moment, not knowing what to do.

On the other side, Carl looked at Kevin Lestrange who was kneeling on the ground with a puzzled look on his face.

I wonder why the other party has been kneeling on the ground and can't get up. Is there any very bad news?

The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, so he put away his smile and spoke seriously.

"Is there some very bad news? Could it be that the International Confederation of Wizards has already sent a team to come to us?"

"Or do the Ministries of Magic of other countries have any reaction to this?"

"Ah???" These continuous questions finally made Kevin Lestrange react, and he quickly raised his head to look.

The result was, without exception, that he turned into a stupid goose again.
