Chapter 1138 Vincent's Other Teacher
After leaving the White Manor, Vincent used Apparition to arrive in the town of Molsheim in Alsace, France.
Bugatti originated in Italy, but its founder Ettore Bugatti set up the factory in Molsheim after his surname and bought the Château Saint-Jean as a gathering place for VIPs, customers and racing drivers from all over the world.
After a century of ups and downs, the car factory has moved many times, but Eric still decided to move the headquarters back.
When Vincent arrived at the castle, he was discussing with several engineers the construction of a new world-class production base on the castle campus.
"Money is not a problem. After this year's auto show, the Veyron will officially start production."
Eric's wealthy appearance stunned the engineers for a moment.
The new boss is rich and willful, and Bugatti really needs a new workshop to cope with production capacity.
After the engineers left, Vincent came to Eric with a strange look on his face. Eric seemed to be still immersed in fantasies about the future.
"Dad, where do you get the money to build a production base?"
Eric spread his hands and said, "I got the money from selling the car."
"Selling a car?"
He smiled mysteriously, "There are a total of four Veyrons in the garage at home. One was sold to your uncle Hunter who runs a hotel, one was sold to the Duke of Cornwall, one was sold to James Dyson, the founder of Dyson, and the last one was bought by Sirius Black for a ton of gold."
"What!?" Vincent almost bit his tongue. "Dad, did I hear you right? How much gold?"
Eric held up a finger. "One ton."
Vincent took a sharp breath.
According to the current value of gold, 1 ton of gold is approximately 500 million pounds, which is close to 1100 million US dollars.
The EB110 launched by Bugatti two years ago was only $48. Sirius is really a big dog buyer. He has to pay such a high premium to buy a second-hand prototype car.
"Oh——" Vincent sighed after calming down a little.
Sirius probably didn't want to get two stores for free, but one ton of yellow metal was a bit exaggerated.
Eric pulled out a small storage cube and waved it in front of Vincent's eyes.
"Dad, when did you guys make the deal?"
"Just a few minutes before you came here."
"Oh." Vincent took a deep breath, "Dad, I'm going to Germany tomorrow."
"Germany? What are you going to do in Germany?"
Vincent lowered his eyes to look at the Flamel ring on the index finger of his left hand.
During the summer vacation of his first grade, Victor took away some of his parents' and Gugu's memories before taking him to Nurmengard.
He has now left the UK and has no intention of returning in the short term. The memories that belong to them should be returned.
"Dad, I have something to say to you and Mom."
"Is it something important?"
Vincent's expression was extremely serious. "Yes, it's very important."
Eric nodded solemnly, "Come with me, your mother should not be asleep yet."
There is a small building outside the Castle of Saint-Jean, which is the rest area for employees.
Evelyn was tidying up the room when the Waynes arrived.
Vincent closed the door and looked at Gugu who was lying flat on the pillow. "Mom and Dad, I actually have more than one teacher, Nicolas Flamel."
Evelyn looked at Eric, who looked just as confused as she did, "Is it Dumbledore?"
Vincent shook his head slightly and took out three small bottles containing memories from Flamel's ring. "You will know after you read it."
The cork popped open automatically, and he waved his hand to let the memory creep into the minds of his parents and Gugu.
"Gugu!" Gugu, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly jumped into the air and then fell back onto the pillow.
It shook its big head vigorously, then lay back down.
Eric and Evelyn's reactions were completely different. After their initial confusion, they became more and more surprised, and in the end they stared at Vincent with wide eyes.
The Waynes took deep breaths and tried to digest the contents of their memories.
When they were sailing on a yacht with Emilica, they passed by an island. The harpies on the island suddenly attacked them. In the end, it was Sam... no, a vampire who saved them.
Then the family went to New York like ordinary tourists, looking for the mark of the Deathly Hallows.
They went to many places, and finally Gugu found an address on the roof of the Chrysler Building in Manhattan: 177A Bleecker Street.
Finally, the vampire appeared again and kidnapped Vincent... No, Vincent volunteered to go with him.
The vampire's name is Victor D. Blood, and he is the head of the North American branch of the Witch Party.
Eric and Evelyn looked at each other for a moment, and could see the incredulity in each other's eyes.
"Your other teacher is the first generation demon king?"
"Gellert Grindelwald, the first Dark Lord."
"Is that the one your principal defeated?"
"Yes."
"The Dark Lord who intends to give wizards power over Muggles, and to force Muggles to submit to wizards?"
"Yes."
Evelyn's eyes sparkled, "Baby, so you are the new generation of the Dark Lord?"
Vincent laughed dryly, "Mom, do you really want me to be a villain?"
Evelyn raised her hand and rubbed his head. "You are a dark wizard now. If you want to be a bad guy, you must be the worst one."
Vincent didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Mom, villains are not necessarily bad people."
Eric nodded heavily, "There is no clear good or bad in the world, just different positions."
Eric comes from a military background and is very open-minded about people and things.
As a mother, Evelyn believes in her son unconditionally. Moreover, Grindelwald is not a purely bad guy, but Voldemort who kills innocent people indiscriminately is.
The Wayne couple's reaction was a little unexpected to Vincent. He thought his parents would be somewhat repulsive.
Perhaps it was because of the hearing, Fudge turned right into wrong for the sake of the power in his hands and was unwilling to face the real danger.
With such a minister in place, how can the British Ministry of Magic be called decent?
"Baby, your stupid minister is exactly like Denethor II. Why don't you go back and kick him out of office now?"
Denethor II is a character in The Lord of the Rings, the Prime Minister and Regent of Gondor.
He refused to acknowledge the threat of Mordor, suspected that Thoronzel and Gandalf wanted to seize his position as ruler of Gondor, burned warning beacons, and even tried to burn his son Faramir, who was learning from Gandalf.
His ending was undoubtedly tragic. He spied on the enemy through Palantir, the crystal stone of true knowledge, but fell into despair and eventually lost his mind. After failing in his attempt to burn his son Faramir, who was learning from Gandalf, he burned himself to death.
Fudge and Denethor II do look very similar, but Vincent is not Aragorn under the alias of Thoronger, and he does not have an orthodox identity like a descendant of the Gondor royal family.
If it was Ghandau - if it was Dumbledore, it would not be impossible.
It’s a pity that Dumbledore was too afraid of power, and the death of his sister Ariana became a psychological shadow in his life.
