Ancient wizards return to Hogwarts

Les was completely confused.

He left Lupet a sum of money before going to Hogwarts, which was used to pay Lupet's rent and living expenses, and incidentally supported her in continuing to complete the mission of the Secret Order. In the end, he never expected that Lupet would actually use the money to open a dessert shop, and judging from the size of the store, Lupet's business seemed to be doing pretty well?

Seeing the sudden change in Les's expression, Rupert also became nervous, and she quickly explained: "I rented alone in the Leaky Cauldron for a long time, and it was too eye-catching, so I rented a house in an alley.

But the rent here is really high, so it’s not a good idea to sit back and have nothing. I happened to have learned the art of making desserts and bread while wandering in France, and I remembered that you like desserts very much, so I opened a dessert shop on my own initiative. Mainly selling all kinds of cakes, desserts, breads and iced drinks - if you are not satisfied, I will close this store immediately. "

Lupet explained his actions cautiously, fearing that if he said something wrong, he would anger Les and lead to punishment. Although she said she would close the store immediately, she still didn't want to in her heart. She had put so much effort into this place, and it was her first place that she could truly call home. How could she be willing to give up?

Les raised his eyebrows: Don't tell me, don't tell me, living above a dessert shop is quite satisfactory to him. In the future, he can just ask Lupet to make whatever dessert he wants.

He was increasingly grateful for the decision he had made.

After listening to Lupet's explanation, Rice smiled from the bottom of his heart: "I'm very satisfied that you can have a new life. Congratulations."

Seeing Les's statement, Rupert breathed a sigh of relief and put his heart in his throat back into his stomach.

Then she remembered something and quickly took out a small notebook from her arms.

"This is the account book for this year. It records my profit and expenses this year. You-"

"You can keep it yourself." Les waved his hand, not bothering to look at it.

Although he, a Slytherin, could not be said to be rich, he would not seek to build a little wolf girl's family business, even if the initial capital for her business was donated by himself.

"The best reward is to do the things I asked you to do well."

When it comes to doing things, the expression on Lupet's face froze: It's not that she didn't do anything, it's that the Secret Order hasn't assigned her any tasks this year!

She only needs to order a few newspapers, sort out and summarize the news, and then send them out by owl, and then ten galleons will be remitted to her account on time at the end of each month. It made Lupett feel that he was actually a paparazzi of some newspaper.

"If there is no new action, just wait patiently. We have plenty of time." Rice has plenty of patience. Dealing with a secluded organization like the Esoteric Order is like fishing, waiting for the right opportunity.

As time goes by, the Secret Order will naturally take action.

"Come, let me visit your store." Rice waved his hand, pushed open the door with the "Closed Today" sign, and walked into Lupet Dessert Shop.

The area of ​​the store is not large. Except for the side where the door is located, there are transparent glass display cabinets several meters long and one meter high in front of the other three walls. In the corner of the room, there is a cashier counter. Next to the cashier counter is a door. Behind the door is the kitchen for making desserts.

It can be seen from the display of price tags on the display cabinets that the display cabinet on the left sells various cold drinks and iced juices, the display cabinet on the right sells French bread, and the display cabinet in the middle is for desserts. Les took a closer look and found that The desserts sold at Lupet include eclairs, Napoleon cake, waffles, cheesecake, tiramisu, mousse, etc. Most of them are common desserts in the Muggle world.

The best-selling desserts in the wizarding world are nowhere to be seen here in Lupet.

After asking about the reason, Les realized that it was because of her werewolf status that the wizarding pastry chefs in the magical world refused to accept her. Only Muggle pastry chefs who knew nothing could accept her as an apprentice, so Lupe All the desserts Te knows are non-magical.

However, it was unintentional. There are few dessert shops in the wizarding world that specialize in selling Muggle desserts. Lupert's appearance filled the gap in this field, so she quickly accumulated a group of loyal users. Since then, Diagon Alley Most of the people shopping were wizards with Muggle blood, and there were also some single male wizards.

After all, desserts are desserts and will not become unpalatable because of their bloodline.

"The second floor is the bedroom, right? I'll go up and take a look first."

"Eh? I gave you a room at the Leaky Cauldron——"

"Retreat, it's more convenient here."

Ignoring Lupet's dissuasion, Les went directly to the second floor of the cabin and came to where she lived - Lupet rented a two-story building with a basement. The first floor was a dessert shop and kitchen, and the second floor was The basement of her residence is used to store dessert ingredients.

Due to the sloping roof of the house, the layout of the second floor is much more cramped than the first floor. Most of the space is occupied by the bedroom, and the other small part is a rather cramped bathroom.

The furnishings in the bedroom are very messy. There is a pile of quilts and a few small clothes on the bed, as well as a pile of black and white stockings. The shoe cabinet in the corner is filled with all kinds of shoes. As for the bedside There are a bunch of clothes hanging in the wardrobe, both clean and dirty.

Next to the shoe cabinet is a desk with two thick stacks of tattered newspapers and a half-finished newspaper clipping. It can be seen that Lupet has been diligently fulfilling the tasks assigned to her by Rice.

Lupet was a little embarrassed to see the room in such a mess, so she quickly stepped forward to clean up the debris piled on the bed.

She didn't expect that Les would insist on living here instead of staying in the Leaky Cauldron - she really underestimated the attraction of desserts to Les.

"If your customers see the appearance on the second floor, I'm afraid you will lose a large number of customers." Les took out his wand, helped Lupet sort the clothes into categories, and then put them neatly into the closet.

Lupet smiled coquettishly: "Some customers have very strange habits. At Christmas time, some customers asked me if they could put desserts and bread into socks."

Les said it was a long time coming.

After Lupet put away his clothes, Les waved his magic wand and added a traceless expansion spell to the room, which widened the originally somewhat narrow space to three times its original size, and conjured up A wall separated himself from a separate bedroom.

"We are wizards and we must learn to use magic to solve problems."

"It is illegal to use the Traceless Expansion Spell without permission, and this spell is too difficult..."

Les:…

No, how come the modern Ministry of Magic has such broad control?

…

Hogwarts, Headmaster's Office

After the Hogwarts Express whistled and departed, Dumbledore finally had time to deal with his own affairs. He took out the strange remains and placed them on his desk.

Judging from its reaction, it must have been deeply entangled with Gryffindor during its lifetime, and the person who killed it was probably Gryffindor. However, Gryffindor didn't seem to have completely killed it, so when the seal was lifted a thousand years later, it escaped and caused harm to the world.

Looking at the remains, Dumbledore thought of the strange magic it used, which he had never seen before.

'It looks a bit similar to the vague "field" mentioned in ancient books. If that is a field...' Dumbledore carefully recalled the details of the encounter with the remains that day.

At the same time, the temperature in the principal's office gradually increased, and finally, a ball of flame burst out from Dumbledore's fingertips.

Fox, who was standing on the branch of the sycamore tree behind the door, immediately started chirping loudly.

Dumbledore suddenly raised his head and looked away from the remains. The flames on his fingers extinguished, but there seemed to be two flames burning in the pupils of his eyes behind his half-moon glasses.

"Field...?"

Dumbledore's whispers echoed throughout the office.
