Chapter 740 Andy's Deterrence
As time passes bit by bit, Hogwarts gradually returns to its former peace and tranquility, and the hustle and bustle of the magical world gradually calms down under the power of time.
The pain caused by Voldemort.
The joy of defeating Voldemort.
Suspicion of Dumbledore.
The shock of Andy turning into a ghost.
Everything is just a passing cloud in the face of the power of time, and it will calm down after the hustle and bustle.
Everyone has their own life to live, and no matter how vigorous things happen, they can't resist the wear and tear of daily necessities.
Unless, that's your job.
Or your ideal.
Another Slug Club party ended. Andy walked out of the party with Hermione with a smile on his face and a small glass pill bottle in his hand.
"Andy, you really did an extraordinary job today."
Hermione held a book in her arms, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Even Professor Slughorn is shocked by you.
"This is the credit of Professor Snape. He is a master of potions." Andy did not take any credit for this.
Make a magic potion?
As long as you strictly follow the steps, it is rare to understand the pharmacology of the potion materials, improve the potion, or even develop a new potion.
“I heard that the elixir of fortune can bring people luck.
Hermione continued to ramble: "Andy, don't use it to gamble or do bad things."
Andy touched his nose when he heard this and asked: "! What are the bad things you are talking about?"
Hermione wrinkled her nose and hummed, "For example, infiltrating the Department of Mysteries."
"Of course not." Andy insisted.
"in addition--"
Hermione looked around, then leaned close to Andy and whispered, "I know what that mark means."
"What mark?" Andy was stunned.
"The Mark of the Deathly Hallows!"
Hermione stared into Andy's eyes and said seriously: "That's Gellert Grindelwald's mark, right? That box was also sent to you by him, wasn't it?"
Andy: "..——·
If you didn't mention it, I would have almost forgotten it.
Also, how long ago did this happen? How do you still remember it?
To settle an old score?
"Does he want to recruit you to deal with Dumbledore?"
Hermione said quietly: "I have been holding this in my heart for a long time, but I don't know how to tell you."
"You worked so hard to win the Elixir of Fortune today. You probably wanted to use its power, right?"
Andy was silent for a moment and asked: "Then what do you think?"
"Of course I believe you wouldn't do that!"
Hermione rolled her eyes at Andy and hummed: "The Andy I know would never deal with someone like Grindelwald. Even if you contact him privately, it should only be for magic knowledge."
"Are your conditions just those alchemy books?"
"So——.What does he want you to do?"
Andy: “.—·
Why is the little witch so powerful now?
"First of all, thank you for your trust."
Andy chuckled and said: "Besides, those books were given to me by him on his own initiative, and they were not considered a transaction at all. Well - and the other thing is, he wanted to meet me."
"You agreed?" Hermione looked at Andy.
"On Christmas Day," Andy said.
"Need to use Felixir?" Hermione asked.
"No! That's something else."
Andy explained: "In order to help me research magic, Professor Slughorn gave me the Felixir as a reward."
"I've known about this for a long time."
Hermione continued to stare into Andy's eyes. After a long time, she sighed quietly: "I know you are not afraid of Grindelwald, but you still have to be careful. He may use other means to deal with you."
"I thought you were going to stop me." Andy was surprised.
"Then will you listen to me?" Hermione asked.
Andy:
.......
This question...——·...is not easy to answer!
"If anyone sees you together, it could get you into serious trouble."
Hermione did not ask further questions, but continued to warn: "He may also tempt you in other ways, something you absolutely cannot refuse. For example, the secret of the Deathly Hallows."
"Why!"
Hermione sighed suddenly, and then said worriedly: "Andy, do you know what your biggest weakness is?"
"What is it?" Andy was also curious about this.
"It's ego!"
Hermione said sternly: "You told me the secret of Voldemort and the secret of your private contact with Grindelwald without reservation."
"You don't give a damn about them."
"I don't worry about these things being known to others."
Taking a deep breath, Hermione continued:
: "Andy, what I'm most worried about is that Grindelwald will take advantage of this. Use your pride to cause others to misunderstand you."
"Don't worry!"
Seeing Hermione's worried look, Andy touched her head and chuckled: "Grindelwald wouldn't do that, because it would only force me to fall out with him."
"in addition-.."
"Even if Grindelwald and I are exposed, as long as we don't really join forces, there will be many people who can testify for me."
"Because what they fear most is that Grindelwald and I join forces."
Hermione: "..--"
This guy is too arrogant!
"Even you know what Grindelwald's mark is, do you think the people in the Ministry of Magic don't know?"
Andy continued: "But the box still came into my hands, and the things inside were not lost, and the Ministry of Magic didn't even mention it."
"Why do you think that's the case?"
Hermione:
.......
I have to admit that Andy still has some capital for arrogance.
The box with the "Grindelwald mark" printed on it was delivered to Andy across the ocean. Did the Ministry of Magic really know nothing about it?
Of course not!
The Ministry of Magic knew it very well.
But what they knew more was that Andy was not Dumbledore!
If they have some understanding of Andy's "personality", they should know that Andy is definitely not a good person.
Dark wizard!
The next generation of Dark Lord!
These are the labels on Andy.
People are not afraid of police officers with guns, but they are afraid of gangsters with knives.
Someone gives you 10,000 yuan and asks you to do something you don't want to do. Many people may not do it.
But if the other party points a gun at you and forces you to do this, most people will do it obediently.
This is the power of Andy!
Voldemort said that magic is power!
This sentence makes sense.
Because the essence of power is plunder!
When you can plunder the interests of others, or even their lives, you have the right to dominate them.
"Are they afraid of you?" Hermione hesitated.
She knew that Andy was very powerful, but what was there to be afraid of?
That's the Ministry of Magic!
It is the highest authority in the magic world!
At this moment, the little witch who understood something felt that her beliefs were about to collapse.
