Chapter 1355 Rumors of Ghosts

At this moment, Nicole, who was almost headless, floated over, floating between Ivan and Harry.

"Hello, did you have a good summer vacation? Speaking of which, a lot of things really happened during this vacation!" He deliberately said in a very sad tone, shaking his head on his neck, and he looked obviously done Prepare, as if reciting, "A lot of people died, bad things happen every day, the magic world is in panic..."

"You're quite well-informed, you know everything." Ron said casually, and stuffed another piece of cake into his mouth. He swallowed hard while making an indistinct voice, "I dare say, you definitely didn't leave Hogwarts."

"I haven't left, but I can see it in the newspaper." Nicole said grumpily, a little displeased when Ron interrupted him, "Every morning, Dobby the house-elf would publish the latest issue of Hogger Watts Magic News gave it to me, and I will tell him the news I collected in the castle, from which I know what is currently happening in the magic world..."

In this way, the "Hogwarts Wizarding News" collects and sorts out information about the ghosts.

Every day, the house-elf apparates to the residences of various ghosts, collects various information, and then feeds it back to the newspaper headquarters, where a special editor is responsible for sorting it out. Dobby is responsible for the transmission of information in Hogwarts and Hogsmeade. .

In this way, as well as the house elves employed by Fred and George's shop, Ivan and the others have now become the second largest employer of house elves in the UK after Hogwarts. The house elves working for them The number of elves is increasing. Next, if the house elves in the underground world can be persuaded to come out to work, the number of elves they employ will even surpass Hogwarts and become the largest employer of house elves.

Hermione intends to gradually promote her S.P.E.W. concept in this way, which is a new idea she came up with recently.

It sounds more reliable than the simple propaganda before, calling on everyone to treat house elves well.

Although they are still unwilling to accept wages and holidays, it is an indisputable fact that the treatment of house elves has been improved.

If this kind of treatment can become the standard for hiring house elves to work, it may change the current situation.

Hermione's idea is good, but Ivan thinks that the fundamental problem with house elves is that they are not servants hired by wizards, but slaves without wages and freedom. Even if the practice of treating house elves well becomes the standard, it will not change anything .

Because that is the standard for "hiring" house elves, not the label for using slaves.

"Don't think ghosts are so ignorant. Although we have been dead for a long time, we will try to accept new things." Nicole emphasized his tone, looking at Ron who was struggling with food, "I read newspapers every day now, Every board is not left behind, I know what is currently happening in the magic world from it, and what Ivan is doing in Egypt, I know all about it."

"That's amazing." Ron said perfunctorily, without looking up at him.

"A ghost who can read a newspaper, indeed," interjected Elaine.

"It's actually not that difficult, is it?" Nico immediately turned his head to look at Elaine, and said with a smile, "However, I am indeed the only one among the ghosts who does this, and the other ghosts are impatient and think it is very Trouble, they all ask for news from me, you still remember..."

He told them that, thanks to the newspapers, he was now the most well-informed of all the ghosts.

Even Sir Podmore came to ask him for news.

This guy is the captain of the Headless Horseman Club. He had always looked down on Nico because his head had not been completely cut off. He and the other Headless Horsemen were invited to the Night of Nico's death party. That night was a nightmare. .

They made a mess of the party, and of course, most of the ghosts thought it was funny.

Nico finally said that, as a hobby, he thought reading newspapers was more valuable than bouncing his head around like a ball.

Aiwen expressed doubts about his statement. If possible, he probably still wants to join the Headless Horseman Club.

Moreover, based on Ivan's understanding of that club, it is also doubtful that they can talk to Nico like that.

"You seem to be very concerned about the situation in the magic world?"

"Yeah, the ghosts are talking about what happened recently, and everyone wants to know the latest news, so they come to me." Nico said, "All kinds of rumors are spreading rapidly among us, making people Can’t tell the truth from the fake.”

"What are the rumors?"

"Many, the scariest thing is that the mysterious man and his followers are hunting us everywhere, and many ghosts have disappeared." Nico said, suddenly lowering his voice, "It is said that there is one of the most evil black magic, It requires the use of human souls. Ghosts are also a kind of soul, so they hunt us around. Sounds scary, doesn't it? I can't imagine what kind of magic it is."

Alvin blinked his eyes, but he knew what kind of magic it was...

When transforming itself into an evil god, a large amount of soul is needed as energy and necessary materials. Judging from the information so far, the specific casting process of this magic is divided into details, and the materials required are beyond imagination. Different souls have different uses, and it may involve special souls like ghosts.

So, Voldemort and the others have already started to deal with ghosts?

Or so, it's really just a rumor...

"Although I think the missing guys might just hide, but it is undeniable that this rumor made everyone very scared, so many ghosts came to Hogwarts." Nick said, returning to normal The voice said, "After all, Dumbledore is here, and this should be the safest place in the magic world. You may not know that during this holiday, the school security measures have been strengthened a hundred times compared to before, which is very reassuring."

As soon as he entered the school gate, Ivan felt this, and there were protective spells everywhere.

Before, people could be taken out through door keys and specific fireplaces, but now this possibility is completely impossible.

Of course, there are other loopholes, and no matter how tight the protection is, it is not a panacea.

"Besides, what everyone inquires about the most is about the two of you, which is also the main reason why I am really popular." Nico looked at Ivan and Harry, the head with only a little skin attached was turning dangling dangerously from its ruff, it said somewhat triumphantly, "I'm pretty much considered an authority on Alvin Mason and Harry Potter, and we're known to be on good terms. I promise, I won't be pestering you two about the situation. Alvin Mason and Harry Potter know they can trust me with absolute confidence. I told them that I would rather die than betray their trust... 8) For more exciting novels, welcome to visit our Reading Academy
