A day at Hogwarts

Chapter 109 Bodyguard

Charles found that the conditions of the hospital in Ouagadou were very good. The VIP ward he lived in not only had a bedroom, a reception room and an independent bathroom, but most importantly, he could also eat dishes from all over Africa.

His staple food tonight is Nigerian rice cooked with tomato sauce, onions, salt and pepper, etc. The main course is traditional Mozambican roast chicken, which is seasoned with cumin, garlic, chili powder, lemon juice and Pickled red pepper, very spicy. The salad from Swaziland is a mixture of diced avocado, lemon juice and grated ginger, and is topped with crushed peanuts. Palm fruit soup is a Ghanaian recipe made from palm fruit pulp boiled with sea fish, sea shrimp, vegetables and seasonings. Then there's the Mauritian drink, a mix of basil seeds, agar jelly, milk and vanilla, sort of like bubble tea.

For a foodie, I don't want to leave the hospital.

This kind of dinner requires two copies, one for each person and one for Phoenix.

The meal was delivered by someone she knew. Catherine, who sat next to the dinner party on the first day in Ouagadou, usually works in the hospital.

Charles said to her: "I told Professor Dumbledore about you, and he is very interested in your research project."

Catherine asked in surprise: "Really?!"

Charles nodded. He took time to mention this matter to Old Deng when he was preparing for the free hunting competition, and Dumbledore responded immediately.

"It's just that Professor Dumbledore is very busy now." Charles said, "He said he would write to you later."

A bright smile appeared on Catherine's face, expressing her understanding, and she kept thanking Charles.

Charles thought to himself, Dumbledore is indeed an old Jianghu, and it won't take much time to answer a few questions, but now it is during the competition that if she contacts Catherine rashly, she will be embarrassed in school, so wait until the limelight passes.

After dinner, another guest came to visit Charles.

Rufus Scrimgeour, the director of the Auror office, is familiar with Charles. He said straight to the point when he arrived: "Charles, you killed Edie last night. We are worried that his henchmen will come to revenge. Now we agree Decided to strengthen your protection while in Africa, for which Dumbledore has found a temporary bodyguard, he will be late."

Charles also thought about it. When Voldemort overturned the car at Harry's house, the Death Eaters tortured Neville's parents. From this, he speculated that the youngest himself was likely to be targeted.

"Thank you." Charles thanked him with a smile, wondering who would be sent.

Scrimgeour introduced to Charles Moody, whose rumors filled half of Azkaban, and then said: "Moody is an experienced and powerful Auror, and we are all assured that he will protect you. "

Seeing this situation, Charles was a little frightened, and asked anxiously, "What about Bell and Fleur?"

Scrimgeour said: "Don't worry, Bell is protected by other Aurors, and the French Ministry of Magic is responsible for Miss Delacour's safety."

Charles was a little relieved, and said by the way: "Miss Delacour is Madame Angelina's granddaughter."

Scrimgeour didn't expect such a relationship, and nodded to show that he knew it.

Speaking of Cao Cao, when Cao Cao arrived, another guest came, it was Fu Rong's father and grandmother, and an unknown Veela.

They rushed over from France in the afternoon and came to visit Charles after listening to Fleur's account of yesterday's experience.

Scrimgeour immediately greeted Lady Angelina and left the ward.

After a while of pleasantries, Charles asked: "How is Fleur's health? I can't go out all day today."

Mr. Delacour is not tall, but he looks elegant and easy-going in the positive sense. He said to him kindly: "Fleur's body is fine, but she is very tired. Just rest for a few days."

"I really don't know how to thank you. If you hadn't arrived in time, we wouldn't dare to think about what happened next."

Mrs. Angelina sat next to Charles and shook his hand and said, "I won't say much about thanking you. We will keep this matter in mind. If you need my help in the future, just ask."

Charles said embarrassingly: "Actually, it was Ruby who contributed the most. It was its tears that saved Fleur."

At this time, Ruby was flipping through a picture album with her paws to pass the time, looking at the pictures, and she let out a triumphant cry when she heard it.

"Oh!" Mr. Delacour slapped his head, took out a large box from his suit pocket, opened it and placed it in front of Ruby, "This is just a small thank you."

It was a box of macarons of various colors. Ruby looked at it, picked one at random to eat, and then gave one to Charles.

At this time, the Elder Veela named Bakarova asked Ruby, "Ruby, do you remember me?"

Ruby looked at her, nodded after a while, and brought a macaron to her.

Charles looked at the Elder Veela who looked no older than Angelina in surprise. He learned that she was invited by Angelina to protect Fu Rong just now.

Bakalova touched Ruby's head and said: "The last time I saw Ruby was the same age as Gabriel, and now I am old, and it has grown so fat."

Only then did Charles ask, "Isn't Gabriel here?"

Angelina replied to him: "We didn't tell Gabriel, Apollin is taking care of her at home now, and we'll talk about it when Fleur gets better."

Charles nodded in understanding.

In the following chat, he recounted what happened that night, and Angelina and Mr. Delacour broke out in a cold sweat, which was much more dangerous than Fleur said.

"It's all fate!" Mr. Delacour heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, "From the day you helped Gabriel buy the necklace, everything is destined."

Charles was also a little fortunate that the necklace he bought for Gabriel that day had a mutual positioning function, so that he could find Fleur at a critical moment, otherwise it would be too late to find anything in the middle of the night.

After chatting for a while, everyone dispersed, and Charles was also ready to rest.

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and the person who came saw Charles took out his wand and said with satisfaction, "Very well, stay vigilant at all times!"

This person is highly recognizable. Charles only confirmed that Dumbledore really invited the retired "Mad-Eye" Moody to protect him after seeing him, which shows that they attach great importance to this matter.

After Moody walked in, he didn't say much. With both the wand and the artificial eye that could only rotate 360°, he carefully checked the innermost ward and the outer reception room, and even looked at Ruby for half a minute.
