A day at Hogwarts

Chapter 257 The old man comes out

The relationship between Charles and Eleanor is a bit strange in Hogwarts.

Eleanor was pursued by many men over the years, but all received only friend cards.

After Charles appeared, interested people quickly discovered that the relationship between the two of them was very good. At first, they thought it was just Charles who had saved Eleanor's sister, but later they found something was wrong. It turned out that someone was so good at it.

But Charles knew that Eleanor Neri was a rebellious person, ambitious and courageous, but also under great psychological pressure. She is very mature mentally and looks cute, which has become her psychological release valve.

The two got to know each other quite well while playing around. Just now, Charles noticed that the man in front of him made an action that Eleanor would never do: in this environment, he was the one who should tighten his collar.

"Who are you?" Charles asked coldly again.

Fake Eleanor stood up slowly and tried to quibble: "I don't understand what you mean..."

Charles put his wand against the other person's throat and said calmly: "I know a little magic spell to get the bones out of the chicken legs. How many bones do people have, 108 or 356? How about we work together?" Count, start with your fingers or your toes first, I don’t know how many you can count.”

The fake Eleanor kept looking into Charles' eyes and saw eight parts indifference, one part determination and one part cruelty. She had no doubt that he would do what he said.

"I didn't realize you were this kind of person." The fake Eleanor didn't panic at all when facing the wand in front of her throat.

Charles felt a slight movement in his heart. The other person had known him before and was quite familiar with him.

He asked, "Where is Eleanor?"

Fake Eleanor smiled and replied: "Do you like her very much?"

Charles did not answer, but said firmly: "Maybe I should lock you up with the troll who drank the love potion."

This is more serious than murder. Although there are hybrid giants, there are no hybrid giants. The fake Eleanor subconsciously covered her buttocks.

Charles took back his wand and said jokingly: "Your Excellency Grindelwald, I didn't expect you to be such a person, tsk tsk..."

At first, he thought that this person was another wizard sent by those behind Eleanor, but the words "I didn't see what you were like" just now showed that this person was familiar with him before, and he was confident that he would Will be hurt by myself.

There are only two people who are familiar with themselves who would subconsciously cover their buttocks. If the opponent is Dumbledore, there is nothing to say, so it can only be another one. It must be another one, otherwise the consequences of the punch just now will be serious.

Fake Eleanor's face suddenly darkened, and she said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense."

Charles had a guess, and he needed to verify whether it was nonsense, so he suddenly grabbed the other party's shoulders and used the apparation "biu" to return to the beach villa.

"Hahahaha, 100 pounds!"

Jack sat on the couch smiling broadly.

The real Eleanor was here too. She reluctantly stood up from the single sofa, took out her wallet and gave the old man some money.

After Jack took the money, he said proudly: "Although my grandson is usually stupid, he can still be smart occasionally."

As soon as Charles entered the living room, he found three teacups on the coffee table. The green light in the fireplace had just faded, and it was obvious that someone had just left.

He ignored the fakes, frowned and asked the old man: "What's going on?"

Jack replied solemnly: "A knight came to me and asked me if I would do something for you wizards, to help some of the bugs in the bank."

"I don't know much about your bank, so I wanted to refuse, but I remembered that I had taken in an old wizard as a gardener not long ago, and thought he could help, so I told him."

“Jamie is a warm-hearted man and agreed to help.”

Charles finally understood.

Those people behind Eleanor found the old man. With their energy, it was not a big deal to find the parents of a Muggle-born student, and then persuaded the old man to help.

The old man never shows mercy when it comes to killing goblins, so he naturally agreed to the idea of ​​attacking Gringotts.

The specific details are unclear, but it is certain that he continued to pretend to be a Muggle and let Grindelwald, who went by the pseudonym "Jamie", do the work.

Charles said with a cold face: "Hermione and Harry almost had an accident today."

Jack was shocked, as if it were real, and asked hurriedly: "Are they okay?"

Charles curled his lips and replied: "It's okay."

He estimated that it was the old man's idea to target Harry. He didn't have much pursuit in this life and planned to spend his whole life eating, drinking and having fun. Therefore, the old man planned to train Harry to be a hero of this generation. Today, he used Harry as his target. In addition to publicity, it can also have the effect of training this child.

Hermione might be Harry's backup. If Harry fails, there will be another smart one.

As for why there are no Ron and others, it's because the old man doesn't know them, he only knows these two.

There were still outsiders at home, so it was inconvenient to say many things. Charles just sighed, looked annoyed, and apparated away without saying anything more.

Seeing that Charles was angry, Eleanor said to Jack with some worry: "Mr. Smith, Charles seems to be angry. I will persuade him."

Jack shook his head and said: "Don't worry about him. This kid is still young and a little naive when it comes to big things. He doesn't know the meaning of taking the bank back from the hands of drug addicts."

Eleanor whispered: "It's a 'goblin'."

Jack nodded and continued: "I won't ask him to be as brave as I was in Normandy. After all, he is still a child."

"Alas, because he was adopted by me, our family is incomplete. In fact, he longs for a complete family in his heart. Potter and Granger are his best friends. He has always regarded them as family members. So this time it’s going to be very angry.”

Jack's words explained why Charles was angry because of today's events, and by the way, Eleanor didn't think about the fact that Charles could apparate just now.

Eleanor's train of thought was distorted, and she sat there wondering if it was rumored that Charles liked someone else's wife because he longed for maternal love.

She thought about it and found that she was distracted.

At this time, Jack said to her: "I think Jamie can't pretend to be you anymore. You should go back after he sends Charles back."

Eleanor nodded blankly.

The corner of Jack's mouth curled up slightly. He had just used a little magic spell to confuse her mind while she was distracted, making her think that Grindelwald was the one who brought Charles back when he apparated back.

This spell worked very well. When I took turns washing dishes with Charles, he had to wash the dishes for a month. If Harry hadn't been so talkative, it would probably have worked for a long time.

When Charles returned to the bonfire party, he found a stone nearby and sat down, thinking seriously about the impact of the old man's intervention in this matter.

This matter is not a personal matter such as preventing Dumbledore from accidental life or death. Being involved in a political and economic matter like Gringotts. Although he is still pretending to be a Muggle, it shows that he has been persuaded by lobbyists. He believed that it was wrong for goblins to be in charge of Gringotts, so he decided to go out.

But Charles thought to himself that the old man might have other reasons for deciding to go out, to dispel someone's concerns.
