Chapter 170 Return Information
The Christmas dance ended successfully, but when Gloria met Furong again in school, her face looked very stiff.
There was no news about Hogwarts during the holiday, so the Daily Prophet decided to send another reporter to interview and report on the day the second project started.
Gloria was reading today's newspaper and was delighted by a report on an appointment.
[New Assistant Minister of Magic - Conrad Ogden]
[Our correspondent Rita Skeeter reports that the talented Conrad Ogden has been appointed Assistant Minister of Magic from today. It is understood that his great-grandfather Bob Ogden was the Director of the Auror Office and arrested many vicious dark wizards.
Originally, the Ogden family had left the UK. At the invitation of Minister Fudge, Conrad returned to the British Ministry of Magic and his first position was as Assistant Minister.
The support of this righteous wizard family represents a great endorsement of Minister Fudge's leadership.]
Gloria folded the newspaper with satisfaction. It was worth it for her to find Mr. Ogden during the summer vacation. His great-grandfather had captured the Gaunt father and son, who were Voldemort's grandfather and uncle.
According to Conrad, Bob was killed by Voldemort, who had not yet gained power, during a mission.
As a family that has produced many Aurors, Conrad also has ambitions and is willing to join the invitation to infiltrate the Ministry of Magic.
"So happy?" Draco saw her finish reading the newspaper with a smile on her face.
"It's worth being happy." Gloria leaned beside him and whispered, "The people on my side are serving as assistant ministers, so it's easier for them to manipulate Fudge's thoughts."
Fudge is the Minister promoted by the Ministry of Magic in peacetime. He is not very smart and seems to be kind, but in fact he enjoys comfort and is unwilling to deal with trouble. With Conrad, who is capable and knows how to advance and retreat, by his side, he will definitely play a big role in the future.
And no one would have thought that there would be a connection between them.
Draco glanced around and said carefully, "Does he need father to help him secretly?"
Gloria said: "Be careful when you are in contact with others. There is no need to pretend that the other person does not exist."
A surge of enthusiasm welled up in the boy's heart, if Lowry infiltrated the Ministry of Magic deeply enough, he could even influence the minister's decision, just like his ancestor Septimus Malfoy, he could become a highly influential politician and secretly manipulate the power of the Ministry of Magic.
After thinking for a while happily, he asked, "How are you doing with your spell learning? How long can you stay underwater?"
"More than an hour." Gloria hadn't told him that he might be placed underwater yet. "This is very simple. The main thing is that there must be checkpoints placed underwater."
Draco put the book away and said, "Let's find a quiet place first."
He wanted to tell Gloria all the offensive spells he knew. No matter what was underwater, it would not be more difficult to deal with than a fire dragon.
"It's a pity that there is no bathtub in my dormitory." Draco could have driven away the other people in the dormitory and left himself to watch the golden eggs, but he didn't have the conditions.
Gloria almost whispered to him, "The prefect's bathroom."
Draco's eyes lit up. He was going to listen to the normal sounds inside the golden egg himself tonight!
·
Gloria has been paying attention to the other three warriors these two days, but it seems that none of them have found any information about the golden egg.
Harry had almost forgotten about the golden egg, and he didn't look for any books.
It was Hagrid who helped with the dragon matter. If she hadn't been the other warrior at the time, I'm afraid Harry would have been the only one to show up that night.
It's a matter of reciprocity, Gloria knew what to do.
The Christmas holiday is over and January has arrived. February 24th, which I thought was still a long time away, now seems like there are only a few days left.
It's time for Care of Magical Creatures class. It's not snowing outside today.
Arriving at Hagrid's hut, Hermione stood with the two girls. Harry and Ron both looked unhappy, especially Harry, who looked listless and had no intention of attending class at all.
Hagrid came out of the hut. Interestingly, his expression was also very depressed, but he was dressed "normally", his hair was messy again, and he put on his mole coat again.
"First class of the new semester. Do you want to know what the blast-tailed skrewt looks like now?"
There was silence. Gloria said, "Hagrid, the skrewts must be very big now. We definitely can't escape them."
Ever since the blasting-tailed skrewt's size exceeded six feet, no one wanted to come and observe it, for fear that its tail would explode or it would suddenly pounce on them, which would be enough to send them to the hospital wing.
"Oh..." Hagrid glanced at the group of 'mini' children, "That's true, but you can take a look."
He stopped carrying boxes and led them to the pumpkin patch, which was a small area surrounded by high fences. The remaining blast-tailed skrewts were all here. They basically wouldn't get close, and their tails would explode and hit the fence from time to time.
Hagrid had driven the bars deep enough that the fence only shook, but the students didn't dare get close and could only barely get a glimpse from a distance of several steps.
Their size is even more terrifying, and their weight alone can crush students to death. Of course, their disgusting features are also more obvious.
"You guys stay here and observe their current behavior. I'll go find new animals." Hagrid walked into the Forbidden Forest dejectedly.
Obviously he didn't prepare well for today's class, Gloria thought to herself, did her date with Ms. Maxime fail?
She saw it that night at the Yule Ball, Hagrid dancing in the arms of Madam Maxime.
"Are they all going to be expelled from school together?" Draco could see that something was wrong with Harry and Hagrid.
Crabbe and Goyle couldn't help laughing when they heard this and turned their faces away.
Gloria said, “It could be worse than that.”
Finally, Hagrid found a few animals that had no lethality and managed to finish the lesson.
When the get out of class was over, Gloria asked Draco and the others to go back first, as she had something to say to Hagrid.
The class was boring enough and it was cold outside, so when the bell rang everyone couldn't wait to run to the castle.
Hagrid released the few animals he had found temporarily back to the Forbidden Forest. When he came back, he saw Gloria standing at the door.
"Leah, you haven't left yet."
"I have something to tell you." Gloria put her hands behind her back.
"Come in." Hagrid opened the door. "You must be cold. Just wait inside. My fireplace is always burning."
Gloria walked into the house calmly. The originally large house seemed a bit cramped because of Hagrid's entry.
He was not idle when he came in. He quickly took out the kettle from the fireplace and made a cup of tea for her.
"Have some tea to warm you up."
Gloria took a sip. The taste was not very good, but it was refreshing. "Actually, the main reason I came this time was because you revealed the fire dragon thing in the last project."
Hagrid chuckled, "It doesn't matter. The other two houses are trying to cheat. I can't let you fall behind."
Gloria nodded. "Because you revealed important information about the game to me last time, I also want to tell you a piece of information this time. It won't affect me no matter who you tell it to."
Hagrid's slow brain finally worked at this moment, "You know the secret of the golden egg?"
"That's right." Gloria said, "On land, the sound of the golden eggs is just noise, but... it's different in water."
She drank most of the tea in her cup.
"Into the water?" Hagrid scratched his face. "Throw it into the water..."
Gloria put the empty cup down. "That's all I have to say. Thank you for the tea."
