The owner of the Chocolate Frog Factory was not in this valley, and Montgomery went there for a long time before bringing him here.
The boss is an old man with gray hair, wearing a striped suit and a bookish look on his face.
He has an interesting name - Lyle Lupin.
Also coming was Remus Lupin, Director of the Werewolf Office of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures.
Lupine smiled and nodded gently to Anton, standing behind his father, looking at Scrimgeour warily.
Lyle Lupine was different from his son. In addition to the bookish look on his thin face, there was also a hint of meanness and a touch of arrogance that seemed to come from a noble family.
Lyle unceremoniously pulled up his chair and sat down, staring at Scrimgeour, "Skrimgeour, you should know that I am just a person who was lucky enough to receive the family inheritance. I usually have no involvement in anything in this factory.
Operation."
"We, the Lupin family, separated the factory from the family assets 127 years ago and let it join the 'Sugar Cookie Alliance'. As you know, the wizard Westley Adams who entrusted the Sugar Cookie Alliance has already run this factory.
The factory has been here for 26 years!"
Scrimgeour slammed the table so hard that the matchboxes on the table jumped.
"But Adams is a dark wizard!"
Lyle looked indifferent and spread his hands, "Yes, he is in your hands now."
"We all work in the Ministry of Magic. I have cooperated with your Aurors on many tasks and I know how your Aurors work. Please be sure not to be polite to Adams."
Scrimgeour stared at Lyle closely with squinted eagle eyes, clenching his fists under the table, obviously not liking this somewhat arrogant expert in dark magic biology.
Lyle still spoke in that old-fashioned British accent, speaking slowly and in a muddy tone, "He will never show any respect to me as the boss. He is greedy, demanding, and covered with dirt."
The smell of copper.”
Scrimgeour laughed, "Oh, that's as if most of the money from this factory isn't put into the Lupine family coffers."
Lyle shrugged, "After all, this is the most valuable asset of our Lupin family now."
"Then I'll find you!" Scrimgeour said coldly.
Lyle sneered, "Listen, I don't want to repeat it a third time. This factory was fully entrusted to the Sugar Cookie Alliance 127 years ago. The actual operator of this factory, Adams, is also them.
Assigned!”
"But you were once the president of the Sugar Cookie Alliance!"
"..."
Lyle was silent for a long time, looked back at his son, tremblingly took out his pipe from his pocket, gestured to Scrimgeour, and lit a match.
"You know, Scrimgeour..." He exhaled smoke, "More than twenty years ago, when I was young and energetic, I told lies and offended the werewolf..."
He shrugged, "I got my comeuppance, not only in terms of family, but the 'Sugar Cookie Alliance' was worried about being implicated in the werewolf's revenge, so they kicked me off my seat."
"That period was a nightmare..."
Lyle turned to look at a tree in the valley outside the window and pointed with his pipe, "Did you see that jujube tree? My father planted it. I even peed on it when I was a child."
"The Sugar Cookie Alliance took the actual control of this factory away from me and appointed a 'Slytherin' I particularly hated, Westley Adams, the son of a tramp whose family was in ruins and was begging everywhere!"
Scrimgeour's cheeks twitched, "I'm not interested in hearing your nonsense!"
He stood up, took the folder from Montgomery behind him, and threw it on the table. "The actual situation is that you have to go to the factory every few years. The most recent one was three years ago!"
He put his hands on the table and looked down at Lyle coldly, "According to the Auror investigation, there is a magic in the valley, which was installed three years ago!"
"It doesn't take effect until now!"
"Merlin's beard!" Lyle looked up at Scrimgeour with a strange look on his face, "Do you think I will release a magic to target my family's assets?"
"This is the last valuable thing our Lupin family has."
Scrimgeour stared deeply into Lyle's eyes, "Then how do you explain your experience of coming to the factory three years ago?"
"Because the lovely Mary has given birth to a baby, of course I have to come over. You know, as long as this kind of black magic creature gives birth to offspring, it means that its life span has come to an end." Lyle said here and sighed, "
I warned Adams not to let Mary's child Mimi work too early, as this would be too cruel for a newborn creature."
"He probably didn't listen to me. I still saw chocolate frogs for sale on the market."
Scrimgeour still stared at Lyle closely and said nothing.
Montgomery behind him took out a small book and leaned over excitedly, "Old Mr. Lupine, you are saying that this black magic creature, um, Mary, gave birth to offspring three years ago, which represents the direction of her life.
The end, please tell me how long it will take for you to die."
Lyle's eyes widened and he blew his beard, "Merlin's beard, how could you ask such a cruel question!"
Montgomery smiled apologetically, "Please look at past friendships and satisfy my little thirst for knowledge."
Lyle obviously enjoyed Montgomery's attitude and pursed his lips, "One week."
"Oh~"
He took out a silk scarf from the collar of his suit jacket and covered his eyes, "Wow, you don't know, at that time my father took me to deliver Mary's mother, and I watched Mary give birth with my own eyes, that kind of
The joy of life is so wonderful, and what a loving name Dad gave her, Mary."
"Oh~my Mary~"
"I know that she will go deep into the valley, lick the sweet spring, smell the fragrance of flowers and plants, and then lie down on the flat ground with lush water and grass, and eventually turn into a stone sculpture."

"Oh~~my poor Mary~~~~"
"Maybe..." Montgomery looked at Scrimgeour with bright eyes, "You can go and take a look now. There are two black magic creatures in the factory. I don't know if the older one is the one you mentioned."
Mary'."
Lyle was stunned for a moment, "This is impossible!"
"A magical creature like Anmi Duoduo will definitely die when she gives birth to offspring, otherwise she will continue to absorb the child's power and make the child weak and sickly. This is impossible, they are the most loving creatures!"
"Ami Duoduo?" Lupine (Remus) exclaimed in surprise, "Chocolate factory? This is a perfect match."
Lyle looked back at his son with a smile, "Yes, this is the most romantic decision of our ancestors, to provide a habitat for Anmi Duoduo, and they provide us with chocolate frogs."
Seeing Montgomery and Anton looking at him curiously, Lupine couldn't help but smile, "In myths and legends, Anmi Duoduo is a white deer inspired by the God of Love in the forest. Of course, as a kind of black magic
Biological creatures, she is indeed quite naughty and always likes to turn the things she sees into frogs and let them play with her."
Lyle was very satisfied with his son's understanding of dark magical creatures and nodded, "Our Luping family and unique forest elves like Anmi Duoduo have become good partners and have been interdependent for generations."
Scrimgeour retched, facing the fierce gazes of the two Lupins, with an expression as if he was about to vomit, "So, what you are saying is that the chocolate frogs I have liked to eat since I was a child are all these dark magical creatures.
changing?"
Lyle narrowed his eyes and stared at him fiercely, "Why, what's your problem?"
Scrimje burst out laughing, "What's the problem? You should really take a look at the files archived by the Aurors. How many wizards in history have been turned into frogs by Anmi Duoduo, and then..."
"It's like a cat catching a mouse, playing with it wantonly and eventually biting it to death!"
"Xue Te, now I know that the white deer in the factory is Anmi Duoduo, no one told me all this time!"
"Mary will not do this!" Lyle stood up angrily and stared at Scrimgeour coldly, making his whole body tremble with anger. "They are the most loving race, and they have been with the Lupin family for generations.
Living in this valley, I have never done anything harmful to anyone!"
Scrimgeour shrugged and muttered, "Who knows?"
Lyle pulled Scrimgeour's collar hard, and his whole face turned red with anger, "Apologise, you have to apologize for your stupid remarks, I won't allow you to humiliate my little cuties!"
Anton blinked at the side, inexplicably feeling that Mr. Lyle looked familiar, as if...
