Hogwarts: From Selling White Peppers to Becoming a God

Chapter 130 Hello, Peter

Murphy has done most of the preventative measures he could.

But simply taking precautions won't solve the problem, so Murphy decided to go to Lucius for information.

He strongly suspected that this wave of werewolf attacks was inextricably linked to Lucius's "friends".

However, when they arrived at Malfoy Manor, they found that the entire Lucius family had run away, leaving only Becky, a house-elf, who said they had gone on a trip to Rome and might not be back for at least six months.

"ha!"

Murphy was so angry he laughed. As expected of Lucius, trying to offend neither side, huh?

Fine, you can run away, but when you come back I'll break your legs.

Lucius was out of the question, and Murphy thought of the werewolves who had been captured.

He joined the deformation research group.

After the three werewolves were captured, they were all brought here. The scientists in the shapeshifting research group did not cut them into pieces directly, but in order to prevent them from suddenly attacking people, the three werewolves were chained by their hands and feet and kept in cages most of the time.

Andrew and his team would occasionally draw some of their blood for research.

Murphy didn't waste any words and immediately used Legilimency on the werewolf several times.

But these werewolves were just low-level thugs and didn't know anything about the inside story. The reason they bit Murphy's employees was because they were driven by Grayback, but they had no idea who was instructing Grayback.

However, they weren't completely unaware. In the mind of the last werewolf captured, Murphy read a message.

Greyback was furious because his recent attacks had been ineffective, and he was preparing for a big one.

From the werewolves' heads, Murphy learned the approximate number of werewolves: about thirty or so, and it seemed to be increasing.

If so many werewolves attack several teams at the same time, the Watcher might actually be caught off guard and injured.

If they succeed, the sense of security that the Watchers have worked so hard to build up because of their victory will be shattered, and his potions shop will probably be deserted.

Is this their plan?

Destroy your own business?

I have to say, it does have some use.

A large portion of his current cash flow relies on beauty potions and love potions; if the supply of these two potions is disrupted, he will soon face financial difficulties.

We need to find a way to reduce the pressure on the Watchers.

Murphy thought of the Aurors again.

Have you had enough of the show?

It's time for them to lend a hand.

However, figuring out how to get the Aurors involved is another problem.

Rita Skeeter's daily sarcastic remarks in the Daily Prophet have been met with Barty Crouch's unwavering patience; his forbearance is so remarkable that he'd be worthy of becoming a god of ninjas who could unify the five great nations.

Without some bigger stimulus, he probably wouldn't even send out the Aurors.

What can I do to stimulate him?

Barty Crouch Jr.?

This is Batistuta's weakness, and it can definitely be used to provoke him.

But the impact of this provocation is quite strong; Old Barty might just fight him to the death.

perhaps……

Sirius?

Murphy pondered for a while, and a plan gradually took shape in his mind.

He went to find the fairy Locke.

"Locke, take me to see that house on Weasel Mountain."

Locke's house is near Weasel Mountain. Murphy thought the scenery there was nice, so he casually mentioned it to Locke and suggested he buy a house there. Locke got it done about half a year ago, but Murphy hasn't had time to go there yet.

Ottley-St. Catchpol village, Devonshire.

Murphy Apparated with Locke near Locke's house, and then Apparated again to a hillside.

This is a spacious courtyard, built with the eccentric aesthetics of a wizard, and the architecture is extremely casual.

The house is built of stone and wood and is divided into three parts. It seems that the designer initially wanted to build a castle and built a tower with an unclear purpose. Later, he changed his mind and made the other half look like a mill. However, both of these parts seem to have been abandoned in the end. Only the crooked house next to it with its tall chimney looks like it was meant to be lived in.

The courtyard had clearly been carefully cleaned and arranged, with many flower pots on the walls and in the yard. A house-elf was standing in the yard, respectfully waiting for the two of them.

"This is Tata, the house-elf. He's been here looking after your house."

Tata looks much like the other house-elves, except that there seems to be a piece missing from her right ear. "Hello Tata."

"Master, new master, it is my honor to meet you," Tata said with tears in her eyes, standing up straight as if she felt an immense honor.

Well… Murphy had seen these house-elves' emotional nature before, so he wasn't surprised. He had Tata show him around the place, and after instructing that the mill and tower be renovated and refurbished, Murphy returned to the yard.

Looking out from this vantage point, the view is incredibly expansive, with vast fields and thickets stretching seemingly to the horizon.

He looked at them for a while, then plucked a few flowers from the pot and said to Locke, "I'm going to visit the neighbors; you don't need to come with me."

After saying that, he teleported and appeared in front of a crooked wooden house.

On the lawn in front of the Burrow, Fred and George were teasing their younger brother. "You'll be starting school next year, Ron, you can't go without knowing some spells, can you, George?"

"That's right, Fred. On the train to Hogwarts, everyone was talking about what kind of magic they could do, but Ron couldn't say a single word..."

"This is so embarrassing."

"So pitiful."

"We can't watch our little brother lose face."

"So we've decided to teach you a couple of tricks."

"Look, we happen to know a few spells that even a young wizard like you can use."

"How was the transformation spell, Fred?"

"Great job, George. Transfiguration spells are powerful and will definitely impress others. For example, we can teach you to change Scabbers' color..."

"So what is the incantation?"

"Let me think... oh, daisies, sweet cream, and sunshine..."

"Turn this silly, fat rat yellow?"

"That's great, Fred!"

"You're George too!"

"Come on, Ron, recite the spell..."

"Daisies, sweet cream, and sunshine—turn this silly, fat mouse yellow!"

"Good, let's do it again!"

"Daisies, sweet cream, and sunshine—turn this silly, fat mouse yellow!"

"Very good, Ron, you've mastered the spell! Ha, cough..."

"May I try using your wands?"

"That won't do, Ron. You have to use your own wand, remember?"
