This is not the first time Albert has encountered this situation.
Lee Jordan looked at the trembling package in front of him with great interest, wondering what was inside the package.
"Would you like to take it apart and see what's inside?" Fred suddenly became interested.
"Mrs. Pince is over there." George frowned and reminded, "Do you really want to be kicked out of the library?"
"Didn't you say there is still a letter?" Albert asked Kenneth.
"Yes, there is another letter, here it is." Kenneth handed the envelope to Albert across the table.
"Wait a moment, let me read the contents of the letter first."
Albert took the letter, turned it over and looked at the sender's name, then stood up and walked to a remote corner near the window.
The sender turned out to be: Mundungus Fletcher.
Mundungus?
Albert was a little surprised as to why the thief suddenly sent him a package. He probably hadn't purchased anything from him recently.
"Could it be that..."
Albert thought for a moment and guessed a possibility.
Mundungus Fletcher had obtained the boggart for him and had it shipped directly to him via package mail.
However, this possibility should not be high.
After all, Albert hadn't even paid Galleons to the other party yet, and he didn't believe that a cunning person like Mundungus Fletcher was willing to do business at a loss.
Albert opened the envelope and glanced at the contents of the letter. His expression became very strange. He really guessed that there was really a Boggart in the package.
Albert found that he had underestimated the cunningness of Mundungus. This guy actually sent him the item before he paid.
This was clearly a forced sale, and the asking price was fifty galleons.
Having said that, he didn't worry about Albert finding an excuse to just waste the galleons?
For example, I only received the letter but not the package.
In other words, the package was detained by the school.
Perhaps, in Mundungus's eyes, that was the only Boggart that no one wanted, and even if Albert defaulted on his debt, there would be no loss.
What Albert didn't know was that the Boggart sent to him was actually found by Mundungus Fletcher in a cabinet at home.
Therefore, even if Albert did not pay, he would have no loss. Moreover, Mundungus did not think that Albert would deliberately default on the bill.
Albert really didn't intend to renege on the bill, but he also didn't intend to pay according to Mundungus's price.
Fifty galleons?
Is this treating him like a fat sheep?
Anyway, Albert only planned to pay 10 Galleons.
I'll give you the money next time I go to Hogsmeade.
If Mundungus is unwilling to accept the price, he can return it directly. As for the Boggart, Albert plans to use it first, since he won't suffer any loss anyway.
A weak flame suddenly ignited on the letter paper, and in the blink of an eye, the envelope and letter paper were burned into a pile of ashes, which floated into the distance with a gust of breeze.
Albert looked away from the window, turned his head again and said to the people over there: "Don't open that package here."
However, it seems it's too late.
I don't know who opened the package. Inside the package was a small wooden box with a small lock on it. It seemed to trap the scary monster in the wooden box, but Fred had already used the unlocking spell to open the small lock.
As soon as the lock was opened, the wooden box lid was suddenly knocked open with a strong force, and a loud explosion sounded in the library.
Then, Albert saw himself suddenly appearing on the long table, startling everyone nearby.
I don't know whether he didn't react, or he wanted to hear what the Boggart-turned-Albert would say, but the library suddenly became eerily quiet, as if even his breathing had stopped.
"Sorry, I've been lying to you."
Albert, who was standing on the table, bent down in a weird way and looked down at the astonished Fred, "I never planned to make fun of the store with you, and I don't have so many galleons to waste on that kind of boring thing."
Regarding the matter..."
Everyone stared at this scene in stunned silence, feeling both weird and interesting.
The whispers around him gradually increased, and some people with malicious intentions speculated that the pressure of the O.W.Ls exam was too great and was driving the geniuses of Hogwarts crazy.
Some students moved back and forth between the two Alberts with shocked eyes. They had no idea what was going on.
Why are there two Alberts?
Albert, who was standing on the table, was still launching a verbal attack on Fred, and his head kept moving towards Fred. When Fred was forced to collapse from his chair, Albert on the table didn't know it.
Whether his center of gravity was unstable or he stepped on the wrong foot, he fell directly from the table.
This funny scene once again left everyone stunned.
"are you OK!"
Ron was startled by the sound of Albert falling off the table. Just as he was about to lend a hand, he heard a burst of explosions in his ears.
In everyone's shocked eyes, Albert turned into a huge spider. This spider monster was six feet tall and covered in hair. It scared everyone around him and backed away in horror.
Even Harry, who has always been known for his bravery, was stunned to death, and Hermione almost tripped over a chair when she backed away.
However, the most frightened person was Ron, who was looked down upon by the big spider. His face was pale, and he looked like he might faint at any time.
In fact, it would be happier if I could faint directly.
The big spider had already rushed towards Ron, looking like it was attacking him.
"ah!"
Ron's screams echoed throughout the library.
The moment he was thrown to the table by the big spider, Ron almost went into shock.
But he didn't faint. He could only watch with horror as the big claws that made clicking sounds approached him, enduring the fear that he might be torn to pieces by the big spider at any time.
Screams sounded one after another, and the unsuspecting students were frightened by this scene.
When Mrs. Pince hurried over, she happened to see the big spider attacking Ron. She was also frightened. When she pulled out her wand and prepared to save the student from the big spider's mouth, someone was already there.
The action is faster.
"Hey, this way."
Albert was the first to throw the book at the big spider, successfully attracting the big spider's attention and at the same time, he came to it.
The next second, the big spider disappeared in full view, replaced by a book floating in the air.
"Funny!"
The copy of "Harry Potter" ate itself, and was then put back into the wooden box by Albert.
The crisis was thus resolved.
No one was harmed by this.
Everyone was a little confused and didn't understand what was happening now.
However, they quickly came to their senses, especially when they heard Albert reciting funny words, they realized that Albert and the big spider just now were actually Boggarts?
"Sorry, someone mailed me a Boggart, and the package was opened."
Albert grabbed the wooden box that was still shaking slightly and hurriedly left the library before Mrs. Pince got angry at him.
After Mrs. Pince came to her senses, her wrinkled face was distorted with anger. She screamed angrily: "What the hell are you doing!"
Fred, George and Lee Jordan all looked away, pretending to be innocent.
"Disturbing the order of the library, get out, get out, get out!"
Mrs. Pince raised her wand and let everyone's backpacks, textbooks and ink bottles hit their heads violently, and drove everyone out of the library.
It's no use even pretending to be innocent.
"Damn it...Albert actually ran away first without even reminding him."
Everyone covered the back of their heads with their hands and hurried out of the library, but those things were still chasing their heads.
"Who asked you to open the package?" George complained.
"Aren't you curious yourself?" Fred and George almost had a scuffle.
"Speaking of which, what you're afraid of is really interesting." Kenneth Toler thought that what Fred was afraid of was interesting, but he didn't expect that the Boggart would actually turn into Albert.
"Shut up, it's your fault for bringing that package to the library."
The three of them glared at Kenneth Toller as if it was all his fault.
"Who told you to open it yourself?" Kenneth was very unconvinced and glared back. Unfortunately, he couldn't win against three people by himself.
"Would you like to deal with those annoying things behind your back first?" Angelina couldn't help complaining. They were simply suffering an unreasonable disaster.
When a few people passed the corner, they saw Albert holding a wooden box and raising his wand. All the things that were chasing them stopped and slowly fell to the ground.
"Speaking of which, who did you offend? How could someone send you a Boggart?" Shanna asked while packing up the things on the floor.
After Kenneth left, Albert whispered: "I didn't offend anyone. I found someone to buy it."
"Looking for someone to buy it?"
Everyone looked at Albert in stunned silence. They didn't expect that they could find someone to buy a Boggart. It was such a long time ago.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that the other party would send it directly. I haven't even paid the galleons yet."
"What did you buy this for?"
"I plan to use it for training." Albert explained helplessly, "How to deal with Boggarts. This happens to be a popular practice for the O.W.Ls exam, so I plan to use it as a practice for the next party. By the way
Use it to practice the Patronus Charm."
"Remember to keep it secret and don't spread it outside," Albert reminded.
"knew."
Everyone nodded in unison, and they also understood how much Albert had paid for the Defense Association.
