Harry Potter: Charlie and the Candy Factory

At the same time, just when Kobe was about to start giving these Muggles his first lesson in history, Charlie also turned his attention away from the employees who came downstairs and walked into the office again.

He went straight back to his desk, and his eyes subconsciously turned to the things piled on the desk that Hagrid had specially sent for him from Hogwarts - several large and heavy books.

Of course, in addition to this, there were two letters, which Charlie placed in the drawer of his desk.

Those books were specially prepared for him by his old principal.

According to Hagrid, when he saw the shocking report in the Daily Prophet, even Dumbledore, who was knowledgeable and well-informed, couldn't help but be stunned.

He stared at the newspaper and read it several times.

His lips were slightly pursed and his brows were furrowed. Although his smile had changed from his usual gentle smile, it was not out of anger.

No one knows what he is thinking...

Hagrid himself was sitting on the high stool in the office as always, but he changed his usual relaxed attitude and was careful not to say a word for fear of disturbing Dumbledore's thoughts.

Not long after, Dumbledore's brow suddenly widened.

He didn't say anything, but folded the newspaper and put it in his drawer. Then he stood up and walked out of the office under Hagrid's gaze.

Hagrid was left alone, sitting alone and inexplicably in the office.

Hagrid waited for a while, and just when he was hesitating to leave, Dumbledore walked in again holding a stack of heavy books.

And gave him a new task, hoping that he could send these books to Charlie.

Although there are too many things to do, I haven't read them carefully yet. I just put them on the table and don't take the next step.

But just by looking at the names on the covers of several of the books and the annotations written on the title pages, Charlie was able to confirm that none of the books here were Muggle-related information...

From "I am among Muggles - How to Become Friends with Muggles" written by a famous Muggle expert in the wizarding world today to the precious information "People Different from Us" that has almost disappeared in the 16th century, it can be said that

It is extremely detailed and covers such a wide range that probably no one person or organization other than the historic Hogwarts library can put it together...

Charlie couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart.

He could even imagine the scene where his old principal Dumbledore was in front of the bookshelf in the library, using his memory to find these books one by one...

Although as a time traveler, Charlie most likely will not have any use for what is written in these books.

He even said that if he wanted to, he could write a monograph by himself and directly raise Muggle Studies in the British wizarding world to a higher level.

But Dumbledore's concern and care for him like a child in his heart still moved this wizard businessman who had experienced countless intrigues.

As for the remaining two letters...one of them is naturally from Dumbledore.

This was also the first thing Hagrid looked at after he gave everything to him.

The content in the letter was no longer as heartwarming as in the past, but really came from an elder's perspective, truly analyzing the pros and cons of Charlie's move.

Finally, it was concluded that Charlie's approach was quite risky, especially when the Minister of Magic, Connet Fudge, was a pure conservative. This behavior undoubtedly brought great worries and unstable factors.

Although I don't understand how Charlie successfully persuaded Fudge to agree to his plan - after all, as the Minister of Magic personally recommended by Dumbledore, he can be said to be the person who has the most thorough understanding of Fudge. He naturally understands. , with Fudge’s character, he would never agree to this happening.

But if this time bomb is truly dealt with, Dumbledore will undoubtedly support and praise Charlie's behavior.

In his own words in the letter

"This will be an unprecedented reform. Perhaps the bloatedness and decadence of the magical world will really be swept away by a new wave. By then, as the initiator of that wave, you will eventually become a A great man... even surpassing all outstanding wizards from ancient times to the present."

After spending about four-fifths of the article analyzing the pros and cons of Charlie's move, Dumbledore returned to his usual gentle tone until the end.

He smiled and told Charlie a few interesting things that happened at Hogwarts, and also mentioned his employee Dudley.

At the end of the letter, Dumbledore still said this in the tone that Charlie was so familiar with.

"My dear child, just go ahead and do it. Hogwarts will always be your home."

At that time, in the office, after reading this letter, Charlie was filled with emotion. The complicated meaning was beyond words, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

He even had some doubts as to whether his emotions would have fluctuated even more if it weren't for Hagrid still looking at him.

………………………………

Due to time constraints, after reading Principal Dumbledore's letter, Charlie asked Hagrid to help him go to the Leaky Cauldron.

As for myself, I rushed to the schedule and personally supervised the construction of a new factory building and the purchase of assembly lines. I put the remaining unread letter aside and forgot its existence for a while.

Only now, when everything was finally ready and he could relax for a moment, did Charlie think about it.

He opened the drawer of his desk and slowly took out the letter. Holding the white envelope in his hand, he did not open it immediately, but looked around first.

After confirming that the recipient's name was indeed not written on it, he flexed his finger, hooked it on the table, and introduced a letter opener into his hand.

Just as Charlie was about to take it apart, a knock on the door suddenly interrupted his original action.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The knocking on the door was loud and had a unique rhythm.

Almost without thinking, Charlie already guessed who it was.

So the stopped action continued. While opening the envelope, Charlie raised his head and said softly toward the door.

"Come in, Hagrid."

Sure enough, there was a "squeak" sound and the door opened.

Hagrid, with a simple and honest smile on his face, appeared outside the door.

"Good afternoon, Charlie."

He scratched the long fluffy hair on his head and greeted happily.
