"Minister, I think this matter of malicious slander is not enough for you and Mr. Potter to come here in person." Winnie walked down the steps and came to Hermione and Potter.

Her chin was slightly raised, her eyelids were slightly drooping, and there was a careless flick in her eyes, which fell into the eyes of the two Gryffindor graduates, which was especially in line with the characteristics of Slytherin.

Hermione took a step forward, she let out a breath slowly, and raised a just-right smile, which made people feel relaxed without any suspicion of deliberate intimacy.

"Can we go in and talk, Stuart."

Winnie looked at Hermione, and then at Potter behind her. Compared with the situation she imagined, the attitudes of the two people were much kinder.The other party did not bring a team of Aurors, which also relieved the invisible pressure on Winnie's heart.Winnie is neither an extreme Death Eater faction, but holds hatred for Harry Potter, the leader of those who defeated the Dark Lord in the past, and never participated in the dire quarrel with Gryffindor when she was in school.The other party is willing to put on an attitude of friendly conversation first, and Winnie is naturally willing to follow this step.

"The manor is not without a pot of tea for guests, please come in. But let me explain in advance, I'm afraid you really won't find any information related to the time converter from me. In the letter last night I have written clearly in the letter."

Part of the reason for Winnie to let go was the Hermione Granger she knew, and the current Ms. Weasley was upright and kind, and she could distinguish right from wrong.

Winnie led the two for two steps, then suddenly turned her head and glanced at the two of them, as if thinking of it casually, she said, "I hope I didn't fall for the Polyjuice Potion this time."

Hermione and Harry, who were walking behind the master, glanced at each other, apparently recalling the unfinished incident of using Polyjuice Potion to impersonate St. Mungo's healer Selwyn some time ago.Now being mentioned by Winnie, they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

In addition to showing her own vigilance, Winnie's words also expressed some dissatisfaction against them, taunting the Ministry of Magic for not catching the prisoner.

However, they couldn't find any mistakes in what they said at first glance, and the two who had suffered verbally could easily acquiesce.

Winnie led them to the hall, but Strange did not leave.Seeing that Winnie brought in the people outside the door, she just gave them a faint and distant smile.

The Stuart Manor was similar to the manors of generations of Slytherin families, and Hermione was a little surprised that she didn't expect that there was another person here.In other words, I didn't expect to be in the living room.They noticed that the man's clothes were very different from those of the wizard, and they were a little curious and puzzled.In response to Strange's smile at them, Harry smiled politely back with his lips pursed.After that, he couldn't help but ask about Winnie who brought them in.

"Stuart, this gentleman is...?"

Winnie glanced back at Stephen who was sitting on the sofa, but she didn't hide her relationship with him from outsiders.

"This is my lover."

Hearing Winnie introduce herself so bluntly in front of her peers, the smile on the corner of Strange's mouth deepened, and he stood up and walked in front of the two of them, stretching out his hand to them.

"Good morning, both of you, I'm Stephen Strange."

Hermione and Harry each shook his hand and introduced themselves.

"Hermione Weasley."

"Harry Potter."

After Strange heard Harry Potter's name, he glanced at Harry with surprise and a hint of interest.Harry was all too familiar with that look, it was the look that almost everyone who had ever heard of him looked at him, from childhood to adulthood, almost without exception.But the Mr. Strange in front of him didn't look like a wizard. Harry really had no impression of a wizard with this surname in the wizarding world. He cast a puzzled and begging look at his partner.

Hermione really understood what he meant, and asked, "Mr. Strange, isn't he a wizard?"

Regarding this point, Strange generously admitted.

"I'm really an ordinary person who doesn't know your magic, oh, the 'Muggle' you call."

"But I know you, the wizarding world books are very interesting."

The keen Hermione noticed some subtle words in the other party's words, and frowned.It seemed that this Strange didn't care about wizards and magic, but Hermione couldn't be sure for a while whether it had anything to do with his lover who was a wizard.

But when the other party talked about books, Hermione smiled.

"There is no superiority or inferiority in knowledge. It is the same for ordinary people and wizards."

Winnie watched Stephen chatting with two people from the Ministry of Magic, and invited Debbie to serve black tea and snacks to the two guests.She was very relieved about Stephen, after all, the other party was not easy to bully, and Winnie didn't feel that she had taken advantage of it a few times in the previous verbal fights.

Over there, Strange was already sitting with the other party on the sofas on both sides of the coffee table.

"I heard Winnie talk about it last night. Are you still here today for this?"

Just as Strange finished speaking, the old Patriarch, who usually seldom appeared in the portraits in the hall, suddenly appeared today.He glanced at the people present, and said to the two "guests" in Slytherin's characteristic arrogant mocking tone: "Oh! It's rare to have guests in the manor now."

The last guest, Strange, raised his eyebrows, interpreting what Grandpa Winnie meant to mean that he was no longer included in this scope.

My own, um.

Fortunately, the old Patriarch who was talking to two people from the Ministry of Magic didn't know what Strange was thinking.

Hermione explained the fact that Harry received an anonymous report that Winnie Stuart hid the Time Converter in the manor and the person in the portrait.

The old Patriarch's casual mocking expression suddenly changed. He looked at Winnie and asked, "Winnie, what are they talking about?"

Winnie frowned and shook her head, she really didn't know anything.

Hermione's keen insight let her know that judging from Winnie's expression, she was not pretending.The Minister of Magic, who was newly appointed this year, knew that they might have encountered a huge potential trouble, so she rubbed her troubled brows.

Seeing his friend's expression, Harry knew that she was worried. He directly took out a photo from his pocket, put it on the coffee table and pushed it to Winnie and Strange opposite.When Winnie picked up the photo, he fixed his eyes on the photo and said: "The time-turner statement is just an excuse for Hermione and I. It's not just because of this incident. In fact, I received such a message that day." A photo."

This is a magical photo that moves, and it shows the scene when Strange and the Avengers were at the gate of the Congress in Washington.The photo clearly shows that the original ruins were restored after Strange activated the Eye of Agamotto on his chest.

Back in time.

That thought had crossed Harry's mind the first time he saw the photo, even with the scar on his forehead he felt as if it was aching.The scar on his forehead was the best warning for Harry. He stiffened his back in the office, holding this photo and ran to find Hermione.

Winnie's eyes widened suddenly when she saw this photo. This photo meant that someone in the wizarding world had already targeted Strange.She felt both nervous and somewhat remorseful.At first, she relaxed her vigilance because she felt that the wizarding world was closed, but she never thought that Stephen's scene in the United States was also recorded by interested people in the United Kingdom.

But it was the first time Winnie knew about this photo.She was not at the scene at the time, and she did not think that time had already been reversed and replayed on her way to Washington. During the time she did not know, countless people lost their lives without their own awareness. life.

Winnie couldn't help holding Strange's hand.

Strange, who was sitting next to her, picked up the moving magic photo from Winnie's hand, but he was not as shocked as Winnie.Although the development of the current situation made Strange feel dignified in his heart, he did not show this emotion too much on the surface.He handed the photo back to Harry and said, "So, why are Ms. Weasley and Mr. Potter here?"

Hermione leaned forward with her upper body, staring at Strange with a very calm face.

"You are a very peculiar person, but this will not have much impact on the wizarding world, and we have no right to ask your secret, Mr. Strange."

"But you have also seen that someone has their eyes on you and the wizarding world."

"So I think we'll have to cooperate a bit."

When Winnie heard this, she couldn't help frowning.She didn't want Stephen to be involved in such troubles, even though troubles would always come to her door.

Winnie took a deep breath, and asked calmly, "Why are you talking about cooperation?" As she spoke, the corners of Winnie's mouth curled down, showing a look of dissatisfaction, "Your statement earlier didn't seem like there was cooperation. sincerity."

In Winnie's view, if there is any sincerity to cooperate, it should be stated in the Ministry of Magic's letter from the very beginning.

Harry was also a little unhappy being stabbed by Winnie, and Gryffindor and Slytherin seemed to dislike each other by nature.

Hermione shrugged, alleviating the unfriendly feelings between Winnie and Harry, and then explained to Winnie: "The other party dared to send such a letter with a photo attached, it is very bold. But in fact he also He came up with this idea because you had nothing to do. Stuart, you and Mr. Strange haven’t shown up outside the wizarding world until now, and the other party can’t break into the manor. I think, so he wants to borrow The hands of the Ministry of Magic are forcing you to go outside so he can get to you."

Said Hermione smiled: "But we are not as good as he wants."

Hermione calculated that with Winnie's character as a Slytherin, it was absolutely impossible to cooperate with coming to the Ministry of Magic for inspection and interrogation.That's why Hermione and Harry had the opportunity to use this excuse to "search the manor".

"I think the purpose of the sender should be Strange's ability to turn back time."

Hermione concluded.

Strange squeezed the palm of his hand reassuringly, and said half-jokingly: "It seems that the luck of both of us is not very good recently, one trouble after another."

It's true, the matter of Mordu was finally resolved, and it turned out to be the Doomsday created by Lex Luthor. He came to the UK for medical treatment and vacation, and was about to return to New York and was delayed by troubles.Now Strange felt that not only Winnie should have the title of Miss Unlucky, but he could also be called Mr. Unlucky.

Winnie pursed her lips and shook Stephen's hand back.

After she cleared her mind, she said to Hermione: "This person is also very familiar with the affairs in the United States. If he wasn't there at the time, it is very likely that there is a gang behind him."

The meeting in Congress was when the Avengers and Superman faced Lex Luthor together. In addition, the matter of Hydra and Mordo was not settled yet, so Winnie couldn't help but think too much.

In her heart, she hoped that she was just thinking too much now.
