Obscure at Hogwarts

Chapter 165 Gin’s request

"Mr. Rogers, that's it for today."

Due to Louis' retaliation, when Snape learned that he would go to Diagon Alley tomorrow to meet the master he had sworn allegiance to in a very humiliating way, he twitched the corners of his eyes several times and felt extremely complicated. He announced the end of the private training class on the spot and planned to quietly go to London at night to find a store that was still open.

Ok.

I secretly bought some women's clothes.

The end of Snape's private lessons was obviously within Louis' expectation.

Immediately, while snickering secretly and thinking about his low success rate in configuring Wolfsbane potion, Louis asked Snape calmly:

"Professor, do you have any reference books you can recommend regarding the preparation of Wolfsbane potion?"

"No."

Snape said coldly: "Mr. Rogers, I must remind you that there are no shortcuts to the configuration of any potion. If you want to increase the chance of success in configuring Wolfsbane potion, you can only master the trick by practicing more. .”

"in addition"

Snape took out a notebook from the drawer and threw it on the table. He lowered his eyelids and said, "I have other things to be busy with for a while. You don't need to come to my place for the time being. I'll record it in my notebook first." Please learn more about how to configure several magic potions!"

"Okay, Professor."

Knowing that what Snape was busy with was the work of deciphering the wolf blood potion and developing an antidote, Louis put away his notes and said a polite farewell, and then left his office at Snape's instruction.

On the way back to the dormitory, Louis naturally hoped that Snape could develop an antidote to the wolf blood potion as soon as possible to avoid the tragedy caused by the Oracle.

But thinking that the wolf blood potion was probably a magic potion brought back by the Oracle from the future, Louis, who frowned slightly, hurriedly controlled the basilisk clone in the Room of Requirement, preparing to see if he could get something useful from the blood-cursed owl. information.

But in the Room of Requirement, Louis' basilisk clone had just flung down his sleeves and taken out the birdcage containing the blood-cursed owl when he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind him. Louis turned around and faced the visitor and said:

"Mr. Filch, you look like you are in a hurry?"

"Yes, Mr. Rogers."

He found Louis with his keen sense of smell as a werewolf. Filch, who was followed by Mrs. Norris, bowed first, then moved closer and lowered his voice:

"Master, your most loyal servant Filch, I want to ask you a favor."

"What's the matter?" Louis asked curiously.

"About a friend of mine."

After pondering for a few seconds, Filch took a deep breath and said: "Master, my friend's name is Ni Bu, and his name is Cruise. Like me, he is a squib who yearns for magic. Unfortunately, He is not as lucky as me to meet you, the master, and can only entrust his dreams to his children."

"Regrettably, Cruise's three children have not shown any magical talent so far. Some time ago, his wife wrote to ask for advice on whether to let their children go to Muggle schools."

"So Master, do you think you can do it?"

As he said this, Filch rubbed his hands in embarrassment and winked at Louis suggestively.

then

Understanding what Filch was implying, Louis couldn't help but raise one eyebrow and asked tentatively: "Of the three children, which one do you like more?"

"Well"

Filch hesitated and asked: "Master, do you think Cruise and Nicole's three children can be together?"

"OK, got it."

He reached out and patted Filch on the shoulder. Although Louis showed admiration in his eyes, he said to Filch in a serious and thoughtful manner:

"Mr. Filch, I can sympathize with the painstaking efforts you put in for your friends, but the Cruise you are talking about is the nominal father of the three children after all, so we might as well find a time to talk to them, you What do you think?"

"Master, you are right."

Filch nodded in agreement:

"Then I will go back and write a letter to Cruise now and ask him to meet in Diagon Alley?"

"can."

Louis smiled slightly and said: "Because some things need to be kept secret, I may go there in person after you make an appointment to meet."

"And there is"

"Filch, there are only advantages and no disadvantages to letting children receive Muggle education. Do you understand what I mean?"

Obviously hearing the meaning of Louis' words, Filch thought that his master's words were the truth, and nodded hurriedly. After saying goodbye to Louis, he wrote a letter to meet with Cruise.

At this time it was Louis instead.

Watching Filch leave, after the idea of ​​recruiting werewolf employees in the winery, he suddenly came up with the good idea of ​​recruiting squib employees.

It was not difficult for Louis to learn from Filch that just like many werewolf wizards have a small circle, the Squibs who actually stay in the wizarding world and survive also have a small circle.

Compared with the treatment of werewolf wizards in the wizarding world, Squib's life can only be said to be slightly better. He can barely afford food and drink by doing odd jobs in places like Diagon Alley.

Therefore, if we use the magic that Squib longed for as bait, let "Gin" Filch be the leader, and recruit a group of loyal employees for the winery who can freely transform into werewolves or basilisks.

After squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment, Louis thought that this matter was very promising and it just needed to be considered in the long term.

because

There are too many hidden obstacles.

It is still the old saying that being able to use magic power to use all kinds of wonderful magic is the final pride in every wizard's heart.

If the Squibs, who were discriminated against by the wizards, suddenly gained the right to use magic with the help of Louis, this would be tantamount to breaking the limit of what the wizards could tolerate.

Until then, Louis feels it is unknown whether Lucius Malfoy, who seems to be extremely loyal now, can continue to stand firmly on his side.

and so.

Louis' temporary thoughts are

"First, we should integrate Knockturn Alley and win over the pure-blood wizard family, then deal with the fortune teller who is the descendant of Voldemort, and then think about the plan to recruit squib employees for the winery."

"The most troublesome thing here is the fortune telling bird."

"and many more!"

"Since the Oracle is a person who can fool time, is it possible that there is a position for the Squib in his plan?"

At this thought, Louis suddenly had a somewhat ominous premonition, and hurriedly used mental reading on the blood-cursed owl.

About in a few minutes.

Under the influence of soul devouring, when Louis processed the rune letters in the blood-cursed owl, he relied on the clever search of spiritual reading to collect a lot of useful information from the blood-cursed owl.

such as.

The recipe for the wolf blood potion, and where Lupine was hiding after his disappearance.

Another example.

The identity of the blood-cursed owl

He was originally a squib doing odd jobs in Knockturn Alley!
