To be honest, when Albert saw this report, his first reaction was not that Peter Pettigrew was dead, but that that guy actually escaped from Azkaban.
Although he had long believed that Peter Pettigrew would escape from prison, he was still a little surprised when he learned the news from the newspaper.
The story of the novel has undergone some changes due to his intervention, but Peter Pettigrew is also a relatively important figure, and is the key to Voldemort's resurrection. There is no way he will die just because he was sent to Azkaban Prison.
Without him, Voldemort might have had to linger in the forests of Albania for the next few years, or even decades, with his snake and rat friends.
Because among Tom's old friends, no one really wants him to come back. Otherwise, how could no one go to the Albanian forest to look for Voldemort after more than ten years?
In fact, this matter is no longer a secret. Any well-informed wizard knows that Voldemort may be hiding in the forests of Albania.
"Speaking of which, Tom is actually quite pitiful. All the loyal and reliable people are squatting in Azkaban Prison, leaving only a group of unreliable young men." Albert murmured to himself, "I
I remember that he seemed to be able to see through other people's lies, and I really wonder how he felt when facing the group of Death Eaters below!"
Of course, even if Tom really climbed out of the cauldron, he probably wouldn't tell Albert.
The question now is, how did Peter Pettigrew escape from the Azkaban prison? I believe the Ministry of Magic should have known the news that his Animagus was a mouse from Black. There is no reason to let him know.
Peter Pettigrew had to have a chance to escape, otherwise the Ministry of Magic would have to collectively squat on the toilet and eat shit.
"Albert?"
A familiar and soft voice sounded again, interrupting Albert's thinking. Isobel's beautiful fair and rosy cheeks appeared in the double-sided mirror, looking at Albert who was slightly lost in confusion.
"What's wrong?" she asked gently.
"I discovered something." Albert said, "Wait a moment, I have to write it down and study it another day."
After speaking, Albert picked up the notebook on the table and quickly wrote down the story about Peter Pettigrew. He also cut out the report and pasted it on it, along with some of his subsequent thoughts. Then he began to follow
Isobel started chatting and arranged to meet at the house in Hogsmeade.
"See you later, dear."
Albert put down the double-sided mirror, walked to the corner of the room, reached out and grabbed it in the air, and pulled off the invisible cloth covering the disappearing cabinet.
The craftsmanship of the disappearing cabinet is actually quite high, and it was sought after by everyone during the First Wizarding War. Once the Death Eaters come to the door, the wizard can hide in the disappearing cabinet and be immediately teleported to another place to escape.
But there are some problems with the vanishing cabinet. It is sold at a very high price and is very expensive, so only wealthy wizards can afford it. For wealthy wizards, it is actually very cost-effective to spend money to escape.
.
Of course, after the Ministry of Magic restored peace, the disappearing cabinet was eliminated by the times, but in Albert's view, this technology is still very valuable.
He walked into the disappearing cabinet, and as the cabinet door reopened, he arrived in his room in Hogsmeade in the blink of an eye.
Walking out of the hidden room, Isobel, wearing a nightgown, was looking at him with a smile.
"I miss you." Albert spread his hands towards the girl.
"We seem to be chatting every day." Isobel stepped forward and hugged Albert, kissed her lips gently, and laughed, "Your kissing skills are much better than before."
"I'm really grateful to have you as a teacher." Albert let go of his hand and pulled the other person to sit down, "Is it okay to spend the evening here?"
"I told mother that you have a house in Hogsmeade." Isobel asked Albert to hold her in his arms.
"What did your mother say?" Albert asked curiously.
"He said you are more interesting than my dad." Isobel smiled happily, "She never objects to our affairs, probably just to save some worry and not worry about my future."
"Your mother's biggest wish is probably to see you sisters get married and have a happy family of your own." Albert could understand Mrs. McDougal's thoughts.
"By the way, mom doesn't plan to go to the World Cup with us. She said we can't get away from the hospital." Isobel got off Albert and it was a bit hot to hug each other in the summer. "Do you have a suitable candidate over there?
"
To be honest, Isobel was a little confused. She didn't like people disturbing them, but the tickets couldn't be wasted like this.
"That's it." Albert pondered for a moment and said, "Then I will take Nina to watch the Quidditch World Cup. She has always been fascinated by the wizarding world."
"Nia?"
Isobel frowned, thinking about the risks of this matter.
Albert's sister is a Muggle, and it will be very troublesome if she is exposed, but as Albert said, there must be some way to take his sister without causing trouble.
After all, it is not difficult for a Muggle to bypass the Ministry of Magic's arrangements and blend into the wizarding world with the help of wizards.
"You have to watch her closely when the time comes." Isobel actually understood Albert's mood, and she also loved her sister very much.
"Thank you." Albert sighed softly, "Not being a wizard is a very cruel thing for Nia."
"Then thank me properly." Isobel stared at Albert with burning eyes.
"I suddenly found that you are more beautiful than before." Albert was a little surprised by Isobel's change. She seemed to quickly adapt to the role she played, giving him the feeling of a newlywed wife in love.
The quiet night is very long, but the nightlife for two people has just begun.
…
Albert left before dawn. Before that, he used the time turner to go back to a few hours ago, and then used the disappearing cabinet to return to his bedroom, then threw himself on the bed and continued to sleep.
When he woke up, the sky was completely bright, and there was a knock on the door. Nia opened the door and walked into the room, looking at Albert suspiciously, "You look tired?"
"The beauty potion is on the table." Albert reminded.
"I think you need to be more restrained," Nia said without hesitation, "or is that kind of thing really fascinating?"
Albert felt inexplicably embarrassed, especially since it was his sister who was talking to him about this matter.
Noticing the embarrassment on Albert's face, Nia curled her lips and said: "Girls nowadays are actually more open-minded than you think. A friend of mine has his boyfriend... Anyway, you know."
"Your friend?"
Albert looked at Nia suspiciously, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
"The same age as me. In fact, most girls at my age have found boyfriends." Nia pulled up a chair and sat down to chat with Albert.
"You should protect yourself and stay away from those scumbags to prevent yourself from getting hurt." Albert taught seriously, "When looking for a boyfriend, you have to choose someone you like and who is reliable. The most important thing is to have three views.
suitable."
"Don't bring yourself in, there are not many guys like you in the whole UK." Nia couldn't help complaining, "You probably don't know how popular you are!"
In fact, Nia is no longer interested in most boys. The main reason is that Albert has set her sights higher. When she meets male friends, she always likes to compare them with Albert, and then... there is someone
A brother who is too good is not good either.
The breakfast was very sumptuous, and the meat on the table was basically replaced by fish and chicken. While eating, everyone talked about going shopping later.
"By the way, there is a Quidditch World Cup in the wizarding world this year. Someone gave me some tickets. Would Nia want to go to the game with me?" Albert suddenly asked.
The hall suddenly fell into dead silence.
"Watching the football game?" Nia raised her head and looked at Albert and asked in a trembling voice, "Can I really go?"
"Of course you can, just pretend to be a wizard and sneak in." Albert said with a smile, "But you must not run around, let alone leave my side. This is my condition and requirement."
"No problem at all."
A very bright smile appeared on Nia's face, she felt that today was her lucky day.
"Quidditch?" Luke said with a little nostalgia on his face, "The Daily Prophet said that Britain seems to have not won a championship in thirty years."
"Is it really okay?" Sansa asked worriedly. She felt that letting Nia sneak into the wizards was a bit unreliable. If her identity was exposed, she might cause a lot of trouble.
"Don't worry, as long as she doesn't run around, there will be no problem." Albert almost patted his chest to assure him, "It's like traveling abroad."
"Who else besides you?"
"Isobel and her sister Katrina will also come with us to watch the Quidditch World Cup." Albert said, "We will live in a tent then."
"A tent?" Every time Sansa talked about things in the magical world, she felt like she couldn't keep up with the topic.
"The wizard's tent is very large, like a small house." Luke explained.
"Magic is amazing." Sansa changed her words, "We are having dumplings for lunch, what fillings do you want."
"Shrimp dumplings." Albert said, "I can help you then."
After breakfast, the family took Luke's car to London for shopping.
After the two parties agreed on a time and place to meet, they separated on the street. Albert's first stop was to buy a dress for Nia.
It was a brand store, and the clothes in it were very expensive, which was why Nia came to him.
Of course, Nia cannot invest all her pounds in stocks, but she plans to leave some money for herself to meet emergencies.
Moreover, in her words: Albert couldn't use pounds anyway, so he might as well spend the money on his lovely sister.
"How's it going?" Nia twirled in front of Albert in an off-white dress, "I think this dress matches the hat you gave me last time."
"Not bad." Albert felt that Nia had matured a lot, and her temperament was different from the lively and cute sister in his impression.
All I can say is that beautiful girls look good in anything they wear.
"This is the most popular style at the moment and is very suitable for your girlfriend." The young waitress boasted.
"That's my sister." Albert corrected.
The waitress was a little embarrassed. She felt that the two of them were more like lovers. After all, girls usually go shopping with their best friends or boyfriends.
"Yes, this is my brother." Nia winked at the young waitress and said, "But he already has a girlfriend."
The waitress looked at the brother and sister who came to the front desk to pay with a surprised look on her face.
"Okay, let's go buy your clothes next!" Nia turned to Albert and said.
With adequate nutrition, Albert's height has reached nearly six feet, and many of his clothes have become shorter.
The enthusiasm of the girls for shopping was terrifying. Albert really couldn't understand why Nia was so keen on buying clothes for himself. He felt like a doll trying on clothes and had to go to several clothing stores before he was satisfied.
Of course, Nia has good taste. After Albert put on a new set of clothes, he looked sunnier and more handsome.
However, the troubling problem is that the two are always mistaken by shop assistants as boyfriend and girlfriend.
"I think we are somewhat similar."
Albert looked at himself at the glass window of the milk tea shop and said, he didn't understand why some people thought they were lovers instead of brother and sister.
"That's their trick. Most boys are always more generous in front of their girlfriends, so when they see a man and woman shopping together, they always assume that they are a couple." Nia took a sip of milk tea and easily revealed it with a smile.
I understand the little care of the store clerks.
"Okay, we've almost bought everything. We should go back." Luke and Sansa were much faster than them. There were a lot of things on the back seat of the car, including a large fan.
With the arrival of summer, the fan in the living room can no longer satisfy four people. As for air conditioning, the cost of installing air conditioning in Europe is actually quite expensive, and summer usually does not last long.
After returning home, Albert sat in the living room and watched TV for a while and felt the wind from the big fan before going to the kitchen to help cook. For lunch, he had seafood fried noodles and a large portion of seafood dumpling soup.
While everyone was enjoying the meal, an owl flew in from the window, threw a letter in front of Albert, and almost knocked over his bowl of dumplings.
Albert picked up the letter and glanced at the sender. It was a personal letter from the Minister of Magic. Albert opened the letter and read the contents: Fudge told Albert in the letter that he had obtained Sir Merlin.
Regimental Medal of the Third Class.
Then, another owl flew in and threw a package on the table. Inside the package was a delicate box, which contained a gold medal and a white ribbon symbolizing the third-class Order of Merlin.
Albert picked up the medal, weighed it in his hand and shined it, then threw it back into the box and curled his lips and said: "It's gold-plated."
The three people whose attention was originally attracted by the medal all looked stunned.
"The current medals and trophies are all gold-plated." Albert picked up another formal-looking official letter from the Ministry of Magic, and when he opened it, he found that it actually commended him for his outstanding contribution to the Restoration of Humanoid Curse.
Albert originally thought that he needed to provide more relevant information about the Humanoid Restoration Curse, and that it would only be approved after strict review and approval. He didn't expect that he would win the award so easily, and it was so sloppy that it was hard to prevent mistakes.
What he didn't know was that last month Fudge had someone try the humanoid restoration spell during the full moon, and then restored the werewolf to human form in full view of the public.
So Albert won the award.
Compared to Albert's hasty award, Fudge's award ceremony was much more formal. Almost the entire front page of the Daily Prophet was reporting on his receiving the Order of Merlin, First Class, directly referring to Albert's award.
The news was pushed into a corner.
However, Cornelius Fudge's award was not satisfactory. Many wizards believed that Fudge was not qualified to win the award.
In contrast, the news of Albert's award also spread quietly. After the three owls from the Ministry of Magic, more owls swarmed in, bringing congratulations from old friends.
"Oh my God, why are there so many owls?"
Sansa looked at the owls flying around the kitchen, feeling a little at a loss. The birds had made a mess of their lunch.
"Congratulations from a friend." Albert looked at the messy restaurant and said helplessly, "I will help clean up later."
