Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 353 New Minister

Harry returned to the Burrow again.

He thought it was nice here, he could live with his best friends, and Fred and George always came up with new things for them to try.

"We have saved enough money."

Once, Fred quietly revealed to Harry, while Ron was still lamenting about the Screaming Mouse. It would be great if his little bits could be so interesting.

"Professor Heimer was very generous. Even after letting us leave the team, he gave us a full bonus. I guess the professor didn't want us to drop out early, lest we become greedy because of the temporary honor. Although this will be a bit troublesome in opening a store.

, but it’s not bad after all, as long as we can find a fairy like Weiqi to come forward as the shopkeeper. Of course, it doesn’t have to be a fairy - by the way, have you received your bonus as well?”

bonus?

Harry's eyes were a little confused. He had never known that winning the World Cup would get a bonus.

Did James not tell him? Or did the professor forget to give it to him?

Fred knew roughly what was going on when he saw the expression on Harry's face.

"Originally, George and I wanted to make money with you." He said with regret: "After all, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to win the championship. In addition, is there any way for you to contact Ge Jieen? If it is possible

If so, we also want him to join in, so that Gejein won’t spend all the hard-earned money on buying alcohol, which will lead to him going back to his old ways in a few days.”

Now that the Chudley Artillery Team has officially disbanded, the specific statement may seem ridiculous to outsiders, but the students have every reason to believe it - because Professor Heimer does not want to continue to delay the students' classes because of the competition.

So in the eyes of uninformed Fred and George, there was no doubt that Captain Gjeon was unemployed once again.

"I'll try to write to him and ask."

Harry could only say that he was still wondering where his bonus had gone.

Fred and George left. They still had many things to do in order to prepare to open the store. The most important thing was how to win Mrs. Weasley's consent-even if Mrs. Weasley relaxed her supervision of them because of the honor of world championship,

But I still hope they can take the right path and stop thinking about pranks and other jokes all day long.

Especially after Percy got his wish and became the Assistant Minister of Magic, Mrs. Weasley's trend became even more intense.

To put it bluntly, she also hopes that her children can work in the Ministry of Magic, such as the Department of Magical Games and Sports, which would be perfect for Fred and George.

After the two left, reluctant Ron looked back and said: "I don't think they will notify mom about opening a store. They will probably do it secretly. I just don't know who they will find to come forward."

"Did you hear that?" Harry asked in surprise. He thought Ron didn't know anything.

"I'm not deaf." Ron said angrily; "Aren't they just afraid that I will rely on them again? They keep asking them for pocket money - really, why are they so generous to Ginny and to me?

So stingy."

Harry suddenly became a little embarrassed when he heard this.

"Hehe." Ron smirked twice: "What's wrong? You want to sneak away again? Let's agree first, I won't help this time. My mother dealt with me badly the last two times."

Harry didn't want that either.

He underestimated Ginny's thoughts.

On the day she returned to the Burrow, Ginny, who learned about Harry's relationship, locked herself in her room and did not come out for the whole day.

Harry was ashamed and embarrassed. For the first time, he told the Weasleys that he planned to leave - but Mrs. Weasley strongly disagreed with this.

"It's time for her to calm down her temper." She was also so angry at Ginny that the delicious food she finally made was completely wasted, and the dishes were washed with a rattling sound.

So Harry had no choice but to stay at the Burrow, but within a few days, Ginny was clamoring to stay at Luna's house. She also said that she had written to Luna and had agreed to go and relax.

This time even Mr. Weasley started to object.

"Can't I see my children after I come back from work every day?"

All in all, Harry felt that he had to find a way to escape.

He first wrote a letter to James who didn't know where he was, and then thought about it carefully and thought that the Leaky Cauldron might be a good place to stay.

But just when Ron finally agreed to cover for him and planned to leave quietly in the middle of the night, he was discovered by Mr. Weasley who came to talk to him.

"Harry, are you in the bedroom? I have thought carefully about what happened in the past few days. I think we have all ignored your feelings. As a guest, do you have anything to say? Maybe we

There will be a way around this - wait a minute, what are you doing standing astride the window? Come back here, Harry - Molly, Harry's going to kill himself!"

As a result, this farce completely annoyed the Weasleys, and Harry became a disobedient child in their eyes. As a result, Harry's name was the first one Mrs. Weasley shouted every day at dinner. The innocent Harry

En also received a severe lesson.

"What if Harry falls? He'll break his leg!"

——

Although Ron was unhappy after being reprimanded, Ron couldn't help laughing happily when he saw Harry's miserable state.

"School hasn't started yet. How many girls will bully Qiu Zhang when we return to school? She has snatched away all their dream lovers - by the way, Qiu Zhang knows about Ginny.

?"

"I didn't say." Harry replied in a sullen voice: "But I guess she should have guessed it. I really don't know how she knew about it. I obviously didn't tell her anything, but she guessed

It’s very clear. Now we are quarreling, and we started to get into trouble just after we fell in love, and they even refused to write me a reply.”

Ron smacked his mouth loudly twice: "I can't help you with this. Who told Hermione to tell you clearly to stay away from me? Go ahead and get the headache."

"You can't do this!" Harry shouted angrily.

There was a loud shout from downstairs.

"Harry! The big star Harry Potter! Come down for dinner! Don't ask me to send you to the window, right?"

Harry's face immediately turned red, and Ron smiled even more cheerfully than before.

They walked downstairs together, and the Weasley twins also walked out of the bedroom in disgrace, wondering what kind of experiment they had done again.

Mrs. Weasley glanced at them and stopped talking.

Fortunately, Mr. Weasley, who had returned from work, interrupted in time: "The Ministry has been extremely busy lately."

"Then why are you back so early?" Mrs. Weasley took her anger out on her husband.

"This means it's a good thing." Arthur shrugged and said, "No Muggles caused trouble, and I don't mean Muggles, but Dumbledore. His decision-making is really decisive."

"Percy has been bragging about this all day long." Fred imitated Percy's serious tone and said, "Can you please keep your voice down! I'm working, everything is top secret! Secrets, secrets, where did so many secrets come from?

, but he worked overtime again today?"

"Ahem." Mr. Weasley looked a little embarrassed.

As a father, he returned home early, but his son was still working overtime in the ministry, which seemed a bit unreasonable.

"There are indeed a lot of things that need to be done for him." Mr. Weasley stepped aside so that Molly could smoothly place the large plate of braised noodles on the dining table. He always felt that the loud banging sound was deliberately caused to him.

Listen.

"There have also been big personnel changes in the Department." Mr. Weasley pretended not to hear and continued: "Old Barty was sent to a new department of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, called the Prison Department, but it was not under the supervision of the Department.

He only needs to report to the minister. The vacated Department of International Magical Cooperation was held by Frank Longbottom, and his wife became his assistant. In other words, these two people, who everyone thought were Dumbledore, were

Got transferred."

"Then what does our Minister Dumbledore plan to do?" George asked appropriately.

"There are some rumors." Arthur sighed and said, "Someone heard that he had an argument with Scrimgeour——"

"Screengeour hasn't been driven away yet?" Harry couldn't help but wonder. After everyone looked at him, he said a little embarrassedly: "I thought they had conflicts, disagreements or something, and they would leave sooner or later.

.”

"This shows that we have all misjudged Dumbledore." Mr. Weasley shook his head and explained patiently: "You are not the only one who thinks so. Many people think so. Dumbledore will be killed soon after taking office.

It has become a tradition to completely get rid of the group of people who have a good relationship with Fudge. But he did not do this, probably because of Scrimgeour's ability. Who else is suitable to serve at this time?

As for the director of the Auror Office, at first some people thought that Frank would take his position away, but no one expected——"

"Okay, where did I go from here?"

Under the constant urging of the children, Mr. Weasley continued: "Oh, by the way, it was a quarrel. The two people seemed to be quarreling over the Auror manpower. In short, there was not enough manpower - but the manpower was always

It's not enough, it's the same all the time, and there haven't been qualified Aurors for many years. I don't know why they would quarrel over this kind of thing."

At this time, George pointed out keenly: "Dad, these rumors you heard, are they all told by Percy?"

Mr. Weasley opened his mouth, and everyone saw that his ears were red.

Fortunately, fortunately, for the first time, Mr. Weasley was so glad that he did not let Ginny go to stay at Luna's house - she happened to come down the stairs at this moment.

"Look who's coming!" George immediately changed his target.

"Oh! Oh!" Fred's eyes moved back and forth very obviously, almost beating gongs and drums to welcome Ginny's arrival.

Ginny stood blankly on the stairs, her eyes red and her mouth pursed.

"Mom!" she cried, running into Mrs. Weasley's arms.

"Ouch!"

"pain!"

After two blows, one of the twins rubbed the back of his head, and the other covered his head and screamed.

Harry's head bowed deeply, and he whispered to Ron: "Now you understand why they are so generous to Ginny."

"Isn't it just to make people angry?" Ron said proactively: "If it were me, I would cry as many times as I want."

Hopeless.

Harry said silently in his mind.

Except for the twins, everyone turned a blind eye to Ginny's strange behavior. Only Harry felt embarrassed. He deliberately ate quickly, as he had been doing for the past few days, so as not to embarrass himself further.

After Harry finally finished his dinner, he hurried back to the bedroom and finally found something that made him feel better.

Hedwig came back with two replies in her paws.

He couldn't wait to open the first letter and found that Qiu had actually written him a reply.

"What did she write?"

"Open it quickly!"

"Didn't you say that she refused to reply to your letter?"

The three Weasley brothers were elusive. They all poked their heads behind him to ask questions. They could vaguely see a thin figure lurking at the door.

"Go, go, go." Harry waved them away.

The twins laughed and left, taking the sneaky Ginny with them.

Ron stayed still, this was also his bedroom.

"If it doesn't work, just ask Hermione." He gave up the plan of reading Qiu Zhang's reply, and started to come up with bad ideas again: "Anyway, she is also a girl, and she might know what Qiu Zhang is thinking.

Something."

"No, I wrongly blamed her." Harry read Qiu Zhang's reply carefully and said: "She also received a bonus and was traveling around the world with her family, so she couldn't reply in time, and -

Wait a minute, did I see it wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Ron came over and asked.

"I think what she means," Harry said hesitantly: "She doesn't seem to regard Ginny as a threat, but she thinks that my relationship with Hermione is a little unusual - what is going on? She really thinks so.

of?"

"Let me take a look." Ron also read Qiu's reply carefully.

"Are you sure that's what you mean?" After reading, Ron raised his head and asked: "Isn't she just asking for your opinion and asking if it will take up time with Hermione? What's the point of that?

of."

Harry stared straight at Ron.

"What happened?"

"Because she didn't ask you. It's not like I only have one good friend. Everyone knows that the three of us have the best relationship."

"Thank you, I'm so touched - wait a minute!"

Ron finally came to his senses. He cursed and said, "Why does everyone like to ignore me? No, I want to play Quidditch too!"

"I kind of hope you do," Harry said, opening the second letter.

James finally wrote him a reply.

Harry didn't know where James was going. The letter he wrote before was also related to his plan to live in the Leaky Cauldron, which happened a long time ago.

He silently read James' reply, and Ron didn't disturb him this time.

But Harry's silence seemed to be a little too long.

"What's wrong?" Ron couldn't help but asked: "What did Egjeon say?"

Harry raised his head, his face full of disbelief.

"He found a clue about my mother."
