Chapter 998 ?
"Okay, okay, Lun worked so hard to get it back, let's try it, and Arthur also recommended this to me." Owen clapped his hands and summoned Maggie, and asked the house elf to take some transparent food from the kitchen. Glasses and ice cubes come over.
Maggie controlled the barrel with her fingers, turned on the faucet and began to refill everyone's glasses. As the amber-yellow liquid flowed into the glass, the rich aroma of plums mixed with the aroma of wine wafted out of it.
"Sliverwa? Is this the brand or the name of the wine?" Daisy moved her nose and sniffed, then looked at the pattern of the fruit used printed on the label, "Made from blue plums?"
"Fruits with sugar can be used to make wine, so pears, peaches, strawberries, cherries, etc. are common materials. It is impossible for Nordic countries to grow grapes due to the weather, but they naturally like to drink spirits. It can keep out the cold, so brandy is quite common in these countries.” Albert often went to have a drink with his colleagues after get off work due to work reasons, so he knew quite a lot about alcohol.
"Speaking of which, the name of brandy has something to do with the country where Lun stayed just now... Ah, thank you, Maggie, you can try some for yourself and Kreacher later." Josephine took the house elf and handed it She paused for a drink, "Its name comes from the Dutch word for "burning water" (), and when it came to England, it was shortened to Brandy (Brandy) because its name was too long and difficult to pronounce."
Morgan Le Fay hadn't recovered from the discomfort just now, she sat back on the sofa and waved to the house elf.
"Maggie, please pour me a sip." Owen thought that he still had a lot of work to do, so he asked Maggie to make some for him to taste.
Fu Rong shook the wine glass with an elegant and charming posture. Daisy glanced at her, poured the wine in the glass into her lips, and swallowed it down. Some of the cold wine slid down her throat, and she felt Prominent fruit aroma, full-bodied wine taste, slightly bitter taste, comfortable taste experience in bitterness, harmonious wine body.
Seeing that Allen refilled himself another full cup, Owen ordered: "Allen, drink less, there is still business to talk about later."
"It's okay, father." Allen swung his glass, "I don't get drunk that easily."
After chatting for a while, he took a shower and changed his clothes. The refreshed Lun also joined the ranks of tasting fruit brandy. He took a sip of the wine, regained his composure, and chatted: "Speaking of which, Potter and the Weasley family Those two children have registered as Animagus with the Ministry of Magic."
"Why haven't they been interviewed on TV?" Emily was actually a little envious that adults can drink, but now her mind is more on the newly acquired pet, so after asking, she began to lower her head and endure the discomfort to tease the little snake Strange.
"Earn said before that he would teach students to transform into Animagus, and this incident was widely reported by the media... In addition, compared with before, among our own people in Harris, we have successfully completed the Animagus. There are quite a few people who have signed up." Furong, whose complexion started to turn red, put down her wine glass and explained, "So the successful transformation of Harry and the others is no longer big news. Some newspapers have published it, but our TV station is only in the news. Mentioned a few words."
"The Aurors have paid close attention to Harry's whereabouts. After Harry suddenly appeared and registered with the Ministry of Magic, he returned to his aunt's house under the cover of the Order of the Phoenix." Albert drank the fruit brandy in his glass. .
"Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix did this on purpose." Allen touched his chin and said, "After becoming an Animagus, you have to register with the Ministry of Magic, so they probably want to try to strengthen Harry and will stay there forever." The concept of his aunt's house.
"
"Dawlish, that is the Auror who is under Scrimgeour now, he is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix, I secretly read his Legilimency, Dumbledore's arrangement in his memory is until July 30th, also It was the night before Harry turned seventeen." Albert said suspiciously, "The Order of the Phoenix is deliberately spreading some false information, that must be it, there is no doubt that Dawlish himself was also arrested by Dumbledore. Lido lied to them... This is not the first time, he is notoriously unstable."
"Speaking of which, Tonks is using her wedding leave, and she hasn't come to see me recently." Daisy seemed a little annoyed, "I guess it's because I'm afraid that you will use Legilimency for her?"
Morgan Le Fay waved to his eldest daughter: "Don't blame her Daisy, it must be difficult for that girl to be caught in the middle."
And Owen, who had already drank the lemon juice after drinking the wine, looked at his youngest son: "Alan, didn't you say that they would still use their transfer to attract the mysterious person to fight him once? How do you know the specific transfer time? Rely on that eye of yours to divination and prophecy?"
"No, father, although Dumbledore has no talent for prophecy, he is familiar with the ability of my eyes. You know why..." Allen shook his head, "Dumbledore should temporarily maintain some anti-detection abilities now. And the means of anti-prophecy are not only aimed at me, but also at Tom, so every time I get the result of divination, I will not get an accurate answer, and I will be misled by his magic..."
"That's too bad!" Fu Rong exclaimed, and then asked, "But, Alan, are you still doing the preparations you asked our TV station to do?"
"Fleur, of course we need to keep preparing. It should take some time for Harry and the others to transfer, because there are still many days before the protection spell expires. Harry has to stay at his aunt's house until he can complete the charging of ancient magic before acting. If you act too early, the protective spell on him will end before his birthday, which is too dangerous for them." Allen smiled confidently at Fleur, "I will talk to the core members of the Order of the Phoenix in a few days , I told the other party something, and I think the other party would be willing to tell me... Let’s exchange information.”
Fu Rong raised one eyebrow suspiciously, and then relaxed her expression: "Okay, you must have a plan in mind, but will the mysterious person agree when the time comes?"
"I think so. He doesn't care if others say he's a bad guy, but he cares about his own reputation." Allen nodded and confirmed, "In Tom's worldview and cognition, he doesn't know what I have experienced, and he He also got the knowledge that Bayer gave him, and he will think that he is stronger than the fifth grade..."
Owen also agreed with his youngest son's point of view: "From his point of view, we framed him last time. With your participation this time, he thinks that if he can be sure that he is not our trap, he will definitely be able to get his name corrected." Agreed."
"How's the public opinion feedback on our TV program in the past two days? What about the Department of Magical Cooperation?" Because of the mention of Furong TV, Allen looked at Lun—even though the director of the Department of International Magical Cooperation is Daisy, but Len was taking care of these international troubles for Daisy.
"This has basically become the main topic in the wizarding world, and most people living in the wizarding world are discussing it." Lun put the wine glass in his hand on the coffee table, and then used the wand without using a wand. The curse cast a flying spell to make his pocket fly over, and then he took out the recent public opinion data and related reports collected by the Ministry from his pocket, and handed these documents to Allen.
During Allen's browsing, Lun continued: "Many wizards have changed some old and pedantic concepts now. They now somewhat realize that the technology of Muggles is still not as convenient as wizards can achieve their goals by waving their wands. But it also changed their previous inherent impression that Muggles are ignorant and backward..."
Furong nodded: "I realized this when I was doing the show. Many scientific and technological products invented by Muggles can replace some of the effects of our magic. Although many of them are not as convenient as ours, Muggles are not like us. As stupid as those Muggle Studies textbooks describe..."
"Even some pure-blood families who didn't deal with us went directly to the Ministry of Magic to find me. After watching those documentaries, they were worried about the power of the Muggle weapons of war. The Law Enforcement Division can strengthen the enforcement of the "Secrecy Act" and further strengthen the supervision of the Muggle government. It is best to be able to control the military forces of the Muggle government...Maintain and even express the idea of a willingness to cease fighting..." Owen leaned on On the sofa, he crossed his hands and put them on his stomach and said, "Ha! Those families who can't hold on have always wanted to stop the war. They are vacillating, but this time they are just looking for a reason to test... But even our own people, Green Musen also came to consult me... so among ordinary wizards, there should be quite a few who hold such thoughts."
Hearing the name Grimson, Emily couldn't help but glanced at Luna's head, who was lazily lying on the sofa, and realized that the other party had only worn the old man's hat for a few days after winning it while playing cards. , I don't know where to throw it.
Allen, who was flipping through the documents, pulled out a letter with the magic seal of the Bulgarian Ministry of Magic. He shook the letter, unfolded it, and tapped on it. Lun probed, glanced at the date on the letter, and said, "This is the letter. The latest one is that they have lost patience and directly threatened us that if Harris TV does not change the program, they will have to ban Harris TV from broadcasting programs in Bulgaria.”
"They won't have the energy to intervene in these things soon." Allen snorted disdainfully, and threw the letter aside, "But it's not time to tear our faces on the bright side, and we shouldn't be here all the time. Propagating the threat of war, first compromise, adjust the program appropriately, and broadcast some scientific and technological documentaries about the life of Muggles...The war program should not stop, just reduce the frequency, we took a step back, Bulgaria should compromise, right?"
"Well, give them a step down. Now this level is far from enough... Just like potions, we have to simmer slowly..." Owen said, looking at the vampire sister aside, "Let's do something else to switch A look at the public's attention will muddy the water even more..."
