Chapter 55
Fir Manor is a small villa area. Starting from the middle of the mountain, the steps are clearly cut. The villas are built on these huge steps, with their backs against the stone wall. There are caverns inside, which replace the basement function.
Today, there is only one unit area that has not yet been completed, and dozens of households have already moved in. Lupine's official residence is here.
"What's your opinion on Fir Manor?" Kane Lupine.
"The good ones are a little too much." Lupine said truthfully.
"That's right, it proves that expensive property fees are not in vain."
Lu Ping was an honest man, and said, "I'm afraid it's not enough?"
"Then you will be part of the company's benefits."
"You're really welcome."
"You have to think about it in a different way. The chamber of commerce takes care of us one by one. Apart from working hard for the chamber of commerce, what other work can we see in our eyes?"
"Can you still understand that?"
"Of course, this can also be regarded as a high salary for a variant."
The two were walking and chatting, and someone greeted Lupine.
Kane looked over, and saw that she was a girl next door, full of vigor and vitality, and full of youthfulness. She was not very beautiful, but her temperament was not bad, and she was healthy without losing temperature Wan, the atmosphere of an excellent housewife has already rushed to her face.
This is not to belittle. In the UK, how to be a competent housewife is also very particular, and there are special schools and courses.
After exchanging a few polite greetings with the girl next door, Lupine and Kane continued down the mountain.
"That woman is good, in good health, with big buttocks and breast augmentation, suitable for childbearing."
"Ahem!" Lupine choked on his own saliva. "Is there anyone who praises you so much?"
"I think these conditions are worthy of your consideration, especially since she is obviously interested in you. You should know that if it is said that the son of a wizard is difficult, then when it comes to you, you have to add an 'extra' as a modifier. Two dead bodies, right?"
"..."
"Why, I think I've offended you by my shallow words."
"No, no! I just feel..." Lupine didn't know how to express his current feeling.
"It's not as romantic as I imagined, and at the same time, I'm thinking about whether I have wronged the other party?"
Lupine nodded vigorously: "There are indeed."
He said again: "It seems that you are not confused at all, you were joking just now."
"At least I won't admit that I'm joking. Remus, you must be fair at least, including yourself. You have said yourself that you don't want to marry a woman who marries you for money. Then, isn't this a joke? Is there an opportunity for appraisal? The answer is no, you can still be neighbors! If even talking openly and frankly will make them unhappy and affect the relationship, then the big deal is to treat each other as air in the future. Do you lack such arrogance? Or have you abused good people to the point of 'others I have been abused thousands of times, and I treat others like first love.' The realm?"
Lupine smiled as he walked: "I found out last time, you are very good at persuading people."
"Well, some people call me 'King of Reason'. I think this nickname is more prestigious than the Dark Lord."
"Hahaha..." Lupine laughed heartily.
Even if this topic is exposed.
Kane also stopped talking, but he thought Lupine meant that he should have been persuaded.
This showed that, just as he had estimated, Lupine was quite interesting to the other party.
So what about Nymphadora Tonks?
Tonks, who was born in 1973, is only 17 years old. Hogwarts has 7 years of schooling, which is equivalent to 4 years of middle school and 3 years of high school. The little wizard is 11-12 years old. graduate.
With Lupine's current situation, it is very difficult to have the opportunity to play office romance (fellows in the Order of the Phoenix).
Besides, as a girl with normal thinking,
During her work in Auror, Nymphadora admired a senior, a handsome police detective in the wizarding world, and a righteous little fresh meat. May they bear fruit. Uncle Vicissitudes already has the ability to save himself, so there is no need for Xiao Tang's maternal love to overflow.
After being the old man for a while, Kane and Lupine came to the Pig's Head Bar.
Lu Ping's career is stable now, and the future is promising. He is obviously much more cheerful, and he is in a joking mood: "You have a regular life."
Kane glanced at the small dilapidated bar that was still dirty and the drinkers were still secretive, and nodded.
"Yes, every time I finish the project, I come to eat and drink. My goal is to drink up the 66-year-old Wuguo licorice that Aberforth has stored. In addition, the current Hogwarts student meals are delicious and inexpensive. Take a lot and get full."
Lupine couldn't laugh or cry, not to mention that he heard that Kane was joking, even if it was the truth, he would not find it strange, but there are many strange habits among wizards, and this is nothing at all.
A famous drinker looked at this side, and Kane raised his eyebrows and smiled at the other party: "Why, have you never seen such a handsomely dressed employee of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce? Want to make a move."
The other party snorted, looked away and continued to talk in a low voice with his deskmate.
Kane smiled and didn't continue to entangle, but took out the acacia wood wand and cast a sound barrier.
He said to Lupin seriously: "Someone used lowly means to instruct some muddy guys to harass the employees and customers of the Chamber of Commerce. I walked outside and I could clearly feel that this is just the beginning, and this is not the same as the general climate." Related, remember what we talked about last time? The problem won’t disappear by itself, and some people can’t help but want to make trouble again after a long time.”
Lupine frowned slightly, and glanced at the man who was provoked by Kane just now.
Kane said: "Girl, she has been watching us secretly since we came here, this time again, since we entered the door. Maybe next time, I have to chat with her on the bed."
Lupine was dumbfounded, and he said to himself: "This Owen is really not simple, his observation skills are strong enough. It seems that just as I expected last time, his purpose of coming to this place for dinner is not pure."
When the food and wine were served, the two ate and drank together first, and then chatted while eating when they were half full. Kane said: "The wind has blown, and the mountain rain will not be far away."
Lupine said, "Do you think Voldemort will come back?"
Although he joined the job for only three months, in all aspects, Lupine has greatly improved compared to the original, including the understanding of some secrets.
The research institute of the Chamber of Commerce is not a place of morality, there are Death Eater experimental subjects there.
A werewolf wizard, patriarch of the Night Howl clan, and one of Greyback's most trusted lieutenants, with the Dark Mark on his arm.
Studying all relevant research materials, Lupine accidentally read them during the research process, and then learned that the Dark Mark has a monitoring function. Within the range of the mark, the word Voldemort is like a spell password, which may trigger Voldemort's detection. It depends on his wishes.
That's why wizards don't want to pronounce Voldemort's name.
Now that you know the reason, it is easy to deal with it. So Lupine is not too taboo now, and dares to say Voldemort's name directly.
Kane said: "Not sure, but I don't think there will be a second decade to get through. There's always been a banner bearer. As far as I know, the Death Eaters' secret meetings have become much more frequent. "
Lupine felt a heavy heart, he asked: "Do you know the countermeasures of the chamber of commerce?"
"Splash the money, it's obvious!"
Lupine couldn't laugh or cry.
"Do you think I'm joking? Think about it, if you have enough Galleons, which link will you hit without making a sound?"
Lupine showed a thoughtful expression. He thought of the research institute where he worked, and also thought of Fir Manor.
Nodded: "It is indeed a very powerful move."
Kane asked him: "And you? What are you going to do about it?"
"Work at ease..." As soon as he started, Lupine couldn't continue. He thought of what Kane said when he talked to Kane last time. He owed Dumbledore a favor, and this favor was to be repaid. of.
After thinking about it, he asked, "Do you have any suggestions?"
"Improve your strength and reflect your value." Kane said: "It is reasonable to say that it is not easy to refuse Your Excellency the White Wizard's request for your help, but it would be too embarrassing if you were treated as a mediocre and assigned some chores. In addition, I think you can please the boss properly, and get closer to the big tree of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce."
Lupine frowned: "To please the boss, you mean besides work..."
Kane reminded: "Little Kane is the BOSS's favorite, and he will go to Hogwarts to study soon. Hogwarts is naturally safe enough, so what about the station? On the road? Does anyone dare to take risks for this What about the heir? Even if not, it doesn't prevent you from expressing your concern, right?"
"This..." Lupine was moved.
Catherine is kind to him, she is emotional and reasonable, and she should care about it. To put it bluntly, isn't this an opportunity to show it?
