Chapter 1570 A War Without a Winner (Twenty-Two)

Chapter 1572 A War Without Winners (Twenty-two)

It was several hours later that he recovered from the symptoms of Apparition.

However, Albert had promised Hermione that he would wait for her to wake up before they could act together, so he did not leave her alone to go to a nearby town to buy a map. Instead, he took out the crystal ball he had prepared in advance from his traceless stretch bag and tried to divine the whereabouts of the Grangers.

As Albert had expected, the Grangers were still doing their old business after immigrating to Australia.

Carefully observing the several images reflected in the crystal ball, Albert frowned slightly. Although he could get some hints, the overall information he could get was not much, and he could not locate the images he saw through divination. He thought that if he drank the elixir, he might get a better result, but...

Albert turned his head to look at Hermione, who was still curled up on the sofa and sleeping soundly, and sighed silently in his heart. He put away the crystal ball again, took a book from the bookshelf and slowly flipped through it, waiting for Hermione to wake up.

Anyway, there was still a long time today.

Hermione woke up around noon, and she was no longer sick, obviously completely free from the effects of Apparition.

The two Apparated directly to a nearby town, where they bought a detailed map of Australia and solved the problem of lunch. It is worth mentioning that Australian food is better than British food.

"Did you use the Confusion Charm on him just now?" Hermione asked in a low voice when no one was around.

"I just told him that we spent all the Australian dollars we exchanged from the bank during our trip, and only had pounds and dollars on hand." Albert did use the Confusion Charm to make the bookstore owner accept the payment in US dollars, but the guy didn't suffer any loss, after all, the US dollar is a global currency.

Hermione flipped through the Australian atlas, looked up at Albert suspiciously, and casually talked about the picture Albert saw in the crystal ball, further narrowing the target range, at least starting from the states with a greater possibility.

"Next, I plan to take some Felixir to try my luck." Albert suddenly said.

"Doesn't that thing bring real luck?" Hermione seemed to think of something again, lowering her head to concentrate on the grilled steak in front of her.

"It can't bring good luck, but it can bring unexpected results."

I don't know if it was the good luck brought by the Felixir, anyway, when Albert used the crystal ball for divination again, he saw a beautiful beach from the crystal ball.

Are they working as dentists in a prosperous coastal city?

In fact, this has helped Albert to find a lot of troubles, and let him rely on his intuition to lock his target on Victoria and New South Wales.

These two states that are closely related to the United Kingdom will definitely win the favor of the British, and immigrants will definitely not run to remote places.

Albert's guess was actually correct, because he did have the mark of Monica Wilkins in New South Wales.

As for why it was Wilkins, not Granger, Albert thought it was related to Kingsley's help.

At the beginning, in order not to cause trouble to the immigrants' lives, Kingsley helped the Grangers change their names.

That is to say, even if the Grangers recover their memories, their last name is still Wilkins, unless they find a way to change it back.

As for why this happened, Albert was also very curious, but there were more important things waiting for them to complete.

In order to make sure that he did not find the wrong target, Albert used the same trick again and found the name of Wendell Wilkins.

Of course, there can be overlaps in names, but if two names appear at the same time, the probability of finding the wrong person is extremely low.

After finding the person, the next step is simple.

As long as the scale of the map is gradually enlarged, it is only a matter of time to successfully lock the specific location of the Grangers.

The only problem they face is that they currently need to cross the entire Australia, because Albert has only stepped on Australia once.

"So, we need to take a flying broom to cross the entire Australia?" Hermione is very interested in the boring journey that will follow.

"Yes, but it's us, it's me. There is only one flying broom in the box. You can stay in the box for a while and rest. I will call you out when I reach the target." After Albert made simple arrangements, he took out the flying broom and prepared to set off.

"Together, you can take me, and we can talk then, so you won't be too bored when you cross Australia." Hermione knew very well that this was a long and boring journey, so she took the initiative to sit behind Albert, and even stretched out her arms to hug his waist, ready to ride the flying broom together.

"Don't hold so tightly, I won't let you fall." Albert suppressed all the thoughts that surged in his heart, cast a spell on both sides, and then flew into the air on the flying broom.

There were people chatting on the road, and the originally boring journey became less boring. They also stopped to rest several times during the period, and the sky gradually darkened.

However, finding someone was relatively smooth. When Albert found the dentist shop, the Grangers had not yet closed the shop, but it was not difficult to see that they were living a good life now.

Just like life in the UK, dentistry is a profession that is considered a relatively high-paying profession no matter where you go.

Hermione, who was hidden under the Disillusionment Curse, stood in front of the dentist's shop, looked through the glass door at the busy couple inside, and said with some disappointment: "You are right, they probably won't return to the UK again."

The Grangers have finally immigrated to Australia as they wished and started a new life. Why do they have to abandon everything they have finally obtained and leave their hometown again?

What a mess!

"What are your plans next?"

Albert glanced at Hermione and was surprised that she could hold back and didn't rush up to remove her family's memories immediately.

"I probably won't stay in Australia."

After the patients in the dentist's shop left, Hermione secretly removed the spell on the two and helped them regain their sealed memories.

Then, before the Grangers could react completely, Hermione appeared in front of the Grangers and gave the two people with astonished faces a warm hug.

Albert didn't bother them, but just stood quietly by, smiling and enjoying the warm scene of the Bluetooth family reuniting after a long separation. He, who had also had a similar experience, was happy for Hermione to reunite with her family.

"Your boyfriend?"

After letting go of her daughter who had been reunited after a long separation, Mrs. Granger looked at Albert curiously.

They had an impression of this young man.

"Albert just accompanied me to find you." Hermione quickly explained.

The Grangers looked at each other and felt that this was their daughter's boyfriend, otherwise he probably wouldn't have accompanied Hermione across half the world to find them.

"Okay, let's go home."

The Grangers immediately closed the store and drove Hermione and Albert home.

To celebrate the reunion of the two sides after a long separation, Mrs. Granger personally cooked a sumptuous dinner.

To be honest, Albert didn't want to stay and disturb the Grangers' reminiscing, but Hermione reached out and held his hand, hoping that Albert would accept this insignificant thank you.

After all, Albert did help a lot in finding Hermione's family.

Under the hospitality of the Grangers, Albert enjoyed a sumptuous dinner.

During the dinner, they also talked about the major events in the British wizarding world. Especially when they heard that Albert had killed the vicious Voldemort and donated all the bounties he had received, they looked at him with more satisfaction.

Albert recognized that look. It was the look of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law. It was not the first time he had encountered it, but this time it made him feel quite embarrassed.

If Albert was still single, he and Hermione would have a high probability of getting together. Unfortunately, Albert was already married, and he believed that the Grangers would never allow their daughter to interfere in the life of a married man.

But Albert couldn't tell them directly that I was actually married and that they had misunderstood something like that. That would only make everyone very embarrassed.

So, Albert kept a polite smile throughout the whole process, hoping to fool them.
