  Chapter 1232 Butterfly Wings

   "It's getting harder and harder to earn Galleons recently."

  Looking at the desolate Diagon Alley, Mundungus closed his suitcase depressingly, greeted several colleagues around him, and closed the stall to go home.

  Since the Ministry of Magic implemented the hellish shelter policy last time, many family members of Ministry of Magic employees hid in the shelters. As a result, there were hardly any wizards in Diagon Alley, which was already deserted.

   There are even fewer roadside vendors, because there is no way to earn a few Galleons.

  Mundungus was one of the victims.

When I heard that many people in the Ministry of Magic planned to hide in the shelter, Mundungus was very happy, but after visiting several families who moved to the Ministry of Magic's shelter, Mundungus' expression suddenly changed. Crushed, because there's nothing good about it, just a bunch of scrap, wasting his precious time.

  Besides, since that incident, there have been fewer people in Diagon Alley, and even business has become difficult.

  He has been thinking of other ways to make money recently.

   I don't know what's going on with the Weasley twins, and whether he needs to help smuggle other things.

   While Mundungus was figuring out how to make money, he froze when he opened the door, and his eyes narrowed.

   Someone broke into his house.

  At least, Mundungus didn't remember that he had subscribed to the "Daily Prophet", anyway, he would pick one up on the road or in a tavern.

  The suitcase fell to the ground with a "bump".

  Mundungus ignored the suitcase, and had already drawn out his wand to look around. After making sure that no one else was around, he immediately went to check the Garen he had hidden.

  Seeing that Garen was not lost, Mundungus heaved a sigh of relief and slumped down on the chair.

   Who exactly?

  How did the other party get in?

  What is the purpose?

  There is no trace of someone turning over the house, so it should not be a colleague.

  Mundungus couldn't understand it. When his eyes glanced over the table inadvertently, he seemed to think of something. He reached out to get the newspaper, but retracted his hand again.

  He was sure that the newspaper was definitely not on the table before he left.

  There is a problem with this thing.

  Mundungus gently waved the newspaper with his wand, and was surprised to find that there was actually a Galleon placed under the newspaper.

"this…"

  He is a little confused now, what the other party wants to do.

   After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the newspaper and Galleon, Mundungus quickly grabbed the Galleon in his hand and examined it carefully, as if he wanted to confirm its authenticity.

   Kanon is fine, then...

  Mundungus turned his gaze to the newspaper on the table, which was today's "Daily Prophet", which he had read before when he was setting up the stall.

  When he stretched out his hand to pick up the newspaper, he saw the letters on the newspaper move and arrange quickly, so scared that he let go of his hand, and the newspaper fell to the ground.

   "Damn it," Mundungus muttered, lighting the tip of his wand, trying to figure out what was going on.

   When he looked down, he was surprised to find a passage in the newspaper:

  We need more useful information, and we will pay Garen for your help in collecting intelligence, but don’t make up some fake news to fool us, unless you don’t want to do this long-term business. —GW (Poison Tentacle)

  Looking at the message left in the newspaper, Mundungus was stunned.

  He reached out to pick up the newspaper from the ground, put it on the table and pondered it carefully, and determined that the other party must be an acquaintance.

   This style of form.

  He already guessed who this message was for him.

  The abbreviation of the name, although I didn't recognize it for a while, but if there is a reminder of the poisonous tentacles, it is not difficult to guess.

  Because the only people involved with poisonous tentacles these days are the Weasley brothers, who once sold them poisonous tentacles seeds for a small fortune.

   Well, yes, the abbreviation of George Weasley in the twins is not exactly GW.

   Having said that, those two guys have been the envy and envy of countless people recently. Combined with the tone of this message, Albert Anderson probably asked the twins to do it. Only that generous guy would be willing to use Gallon to buy information.

At this moment, Mundungus put away other thoughts. He has dealt with Albert many times, and he knows that the smart guy is not easy to fool, and once he does that, the next time he encounters such a good thing, he will It's not his turn.

  Although he really wanted to make money from Albert, he was actually a little afraid of him from the bottom of his heart.

At some point, Albert became a bit like Dumbledore, became as wise as him, and was willing to tolerate other people, even buying information with Garen, probably only Dumbledore would do that, but He is too cruel.

He had heard something, that the death eaters and dark wizards died so badly, it was because those blind guys made trouble at his wedding, and he killed them all through the Ministry of Magic. And it's reasonable and legal.

   That's an extremely vengeful guy.

   Can't be offended.

  So, when dealing with him, you must be extra careful.

  Originally, Mundungus wanted to make a copy of the information passed on to the Order of the Phoenix.

  Well, it doesn't seem to work now.

  The Weasley twins are also connected to the Order of the Phoenix. Once Albert knows that he is fooling him like this, he probably won't get Galleons. Although he doesn't know how many Galleons Albert will give, but...

  Mundungus gently rubbed the Galleon in his hand, knowing that he had to add some other information, which made him feel that he was doing his best to gather information.

   No, it should be said that I have tried my best.

   At least be serious.

  Well, what I heard in the bar was also added. Anyway, he didn’t make it up. As for how to distinguish the authenticity from the fake, that’s not his business.

   Just do it.

  That night, Mundungus drummed up a large piece of parchment, and delivered the envelope to Sirius at No. 12 Grimmauld Place overnight.

  Why not give it to Fred, George or Albert?

  Mundungus couldn't find where they were hiding, but there must be a way to contact people in the Order of the Phoenix.

"What's this?"

  Sirius picked up the thick letter, slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at Mundungus.

   To be honest, many people in the Order of the Phoenix look down on this thug.

  While he is useful, he is very unpleasant, and no one likes to be in the company of thieves.

   "For what Albert wants, it's best to inform the Weasley twins to come and get it as soon as possible. It won't be of much value if it's out of date." Mundungus reminded.

   "What does Albert want?"

  Sirius stared at Mundungus for a moment, as if guessing what it was.

"In the letter, he asked me to collect some recent news. Well, I've done it, and let them remember to settle the balance." Mundungus planned to see how much Galleons this letter could get him, and was considering Do you want to continue.

   Not long after, the letter from Mundungus appeared on Albert's desk through the house elf Dobby.

  Mundungus's high efficiency made Albert frowned, suspecting that he made up some news to perfuse himself.

   This letter is divided into three parts, the same information to the Order of the Phoenix, information about Albert himself, and information obtained privately.

   It does look like that, very serious, as if saying he wants to make this money.

   Albert quickly sifted through the information on the letter paper, frowned slightly, and picked out a few that seemed useful.

  Although the reward for Albert Anderson has been cancelled, everyone privately knows that as long as Albert is killed, he can still get that huge reward from the Malfoy family.

  A large number of dark wizards who originally took refuge in the mysterious people left England in a hurry.

  Two very suspicious strangers bought Felicia Felicia at high prices on the black market, but the liar who sold them the fake Felicia Felicia did not show up and was suspected to be dead.

  The Aurors of the International Federation of Wizards and the British Ministry of Magic are very unhappy, and it is said that they will leave the UK in the near future.

  …

   There were eleven similar pieces of useful information. After careful screening, Albert focused on the piece of information related to Felicia.

   Ministry of Magic, Order of the Phoenix?

   No, they don't need to buy from the black market, then they are Death Eaters, and letting the scammers disappear directly seems to be very similar to Death Eaters' behavior.

   As for other irrelevant guys.

   The probability should not be high.

   Moreover, as George mentioned last time, Bellatrix was looking for those potion masters everywhere, and Damocles was not only tortured by the Cruciatus Curse, but also cast a strong Oblivion Curse.

   Bellatrix is ​​looking around for the Potions Master, probably for Felicia.

   If this is true, it is not good news.

  Once the Death Eaters also start using Felix Elixir, things will develop in some very bad directions, which means that the degree of danger of the Death Eaters will be greatly increased, and even he has to be careful.

Albert is too aware of the effect of Felicia on Death Eaters, even more than the Order of the Phoenix and Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, because Death Eaters use dangerous black magic. Once they use Felicity to make up for their shortcomings Board, those dark magics are going to be pretty deadly.

  The person looking for Felicia should be Bellatrix in disguise, and the other person is probably Narcissa Malfoy.

   It just so happens that both of them are very rich, so it is not surprising that they paid a high price for Felicia, not to mention they can **** it.

  The crazy woman is going to use Felicia to deal with herself?

  As for Narcissa Malfoy wanting to obtain Felicia, it must be for her son Draco Malfoy, so that he can survive the murder of Dumbledore.

  The only good news is that Felicia is hard to obtain, even if Snape brews it now, it will be too late.

  Now Bellatrix is ​​still relatively confused except for capturing Claire and attacking Angelina, other information can be connected in series.

   Albert took the crystal ball on the bookshelf and began to divine Bellatrix's whereabouts.

   He would never allow the Death Eaters to get Felix Felicia, that would probably make the whole situation uncontrollable.

   Did you go abroad?

   Yes, it is more likely and safer to find Felicia in Europe.

   After all, this wizarding war is only in the UK and has not spread to other parts of Europe.

   Staring at the hand holding the golden potion in the crystal ball, Albert fell into a brief silence.

  He stretched out his hand to lightly touch the crystal ball, and saw clearly the owner of that hand—Narcissa Malfoy.

   Sure enough, it was her.

  Based on Bellatrix's way of thinking, she probably wouldn't go abroad to find Felicia.

  They finally got Felicia, which was not too unexpected for Albert.

Although Felix Felicia is very precious, as long as you are willing to pay enough Galleons, it is still possible to buy it, whether it is from the black market or from potion masters, not to mention the style of death eaters, it is not surprising to grab it directly .

   Sure enough, it is only normal that there will be changes in the future. After all, there is a butterfly flapping its wings.

   Albert looked away from the crystal ball, reached out and took out the double-sided mirror from the shelf next to him to get in touch with Dumbledore.

"What happened?"

Dumbledore, who was in the headmaster's office at Hogwarts, was very surprised when he received the contact from Albert's double-sided mirror, because he knew very well that Albert would only take the initiative to talk to him when something important happened. get in touch.

   "You should still remember Damocles?" Albert said suddenly.

"I went to visit Mr. Damocles." Dumbledore seemed to have guessed something, and said following Albert's train of thought, "but I couldn't dig out that part of the forgotten memory from his mind. It would probably destroy him completely."

   "They're looking for the potion master, or the Death Eaters are looking for Felicia, if Snape mentioned it to you." Albert reminded.

   "You think they got it."

   "Yes, I predicted it." Albert reminded, "You are indeed very powerful, but a bunch of Death Eaters who use Felicia are not easy to mess with."

"Thank you for your reminder, but Felix Elixir is not a panacea." Dumbledore shook his head and said, "Besides, that thing itself is very rare, and the success rate of brewing it is not high, and it will take half a year. If you really get the Felicity Elixir, the quantity can't be too much."

   "No, I think you probably misunderstood me." Albert shook his head and said, "If the Death Eaters get the Blessed Elixir, the future may change, especially your plan."

  After seeing Narcissa Malfoy get the Felicity Elixir from the crystal ball, Albert felt this way vaguely.

   "There is not much difference." Dumbledore said calmly, "And, isn't there you?"

   "Should I thank you for your trust?" Albert said angrily.

   "Didn't you also get what you wanted, there is nothing to complain about." Dumbledore said softly.

   "Where's that magic wand?" Albert asked suddenly, "Are you sure you've arranged it, I don't want that thing to fall into the hands of a mysterious person."

   "How about, here you are, I think you can have it." Dumbledore suggested with a smile.

   "Forget it, you know, I don't need that thing." Albert shook his head and said, "I suggest you destroy it directly, it will definitely not be so much trouble then."

   "Don't worry, I will hand it over to someone who suits him." Dumbledore said with a smile.

   "Draco Malfoy?"

   Albert directly pointed out Dumbledore's decision, frowned and asked, "Are you sure your plan will succeed?"

   "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

  Dumbledore looked away from the double-sided mirror, looked at the wand lying beside him, and murmured, "I promise, it won't be a problem for you."
