France, hidden place.
Heinrich scowled and slapped Jin's hand away.
Jin shook his head and sighed: "As a senior, you disrespect me very much."
"Senior?" Heinrich sneered, "I don't remember that you are my senior."
"Why not!" Jin Yili argued, "In terms of age, I am older than you, and in terms of qualifications, I was the Silver Hand Johnny before you."
Seeing Heinrich turn his head away, he chuckled and said, "I have more store opening experience than you, so it's not too much to call me senior, right?"
Heinrich ignored him, but stared at the other side and said, "Someone is coming."
They were currently in another part of the hiding place, Corner Alley.
There is darkness everywhere.
Corner Alley is such a place.
France's unruly wizards like to come here to buy things they can't usually buy.
Today, in this corner alley, people lying on the ground told of a big battle.
In addition to Heinrich and Jin standing there, there were several wizards standing beside them to apply a sleeping spell to the wizard who wanted to wake up.
When they heard the sound of someone coming, everyone was on alert.
A man slowly walked out from there.
Seemingly not surprised by the scene inside, the man took off his hat and said with a smile, "This is the last shop that illegally resells Silverhand products. Aurors will take over here."
The visitor is a French Auror.
Illegal activities were being done in the corner alleys, and the Aurors turned a blind eye to Silverhand's actions against the dark forces.
What I said just now is to tell the two of them that it is the last one. If they continue to take action, I am afraid that some people behind the dark forces will be unable to sit still.
Heinrich stared at the Auror, and Jin sneered: "You don't think that's enough?"
The Auror's smile froze, and he smiled awkwardly and said, "By the way, I forgot to tell you that a store in the hiding place is about to be sold, and the boss is in urgent need of money."
Urgent need for money means low prices.
The French Ministry of Magic tacitly agrees that Silver Hand will clean up the forces of darkness and is willing to give up a good position to the other side.
Heinrich said calmly: "Go back and tell those people that Silver Hand does not need charity."
A hint of displeasure flashed in the Auror's eyes, but he quickly hid it.
He smiled and said, "I will."
He nodded and watched Heinrich and others leave.
Looking across the wizards who fell to the ground, the Auror said to himself: "Here comes someone who is not easy to mess with."
The Minister of Magic, Charles Roland, specifically gave them the green light, and the Auror said behind him: "Take them away and call them an Auror arrest."
From behind the Auror, a dozen Aurors walked out.
Not many of these corner guys are clean.
All you need to do to arrest him is find a random crime.
The people of Silver Hand began to show their strength after they came to France. At first it was two people, and then as time went by, the number gradually increased.
a week later.
The French branch of Johnny Silverhand Store appears in a hidden location.
Jin is in charge of management, and he is familiar with Silverhand's operating model.
When he was in the United States, he often managed branches with Nagini.
The first shipment of Silverhand arrived and was extremely popular.
The French Ministry of Magic gave them the green light to quickly pass various inspections.
The Minister of Magic is very much looking forward to the political achievements that Silverhand can bring to him.
Some people are secretly thinking about how to get a piece of the pie.
And the first climax of the branch appeared.
Gilderoy Lockhart appears in hiding in France.
This is a heavyweight guest, a top star in the wizarding world. .
He came to act as spokesperson.
As with the American branch, Lockhart became the face of the place.
...
"Big hit, Johnny Silverhand branch opens in France, Gilderoy Lockhart appears"
Gilderoy Lockhart's New Book
"Gilderoy Lockhart Interview: Regret Missed Fighting for His Alma Mater"
Lockhart's name was all over the newspapers.
John raised an eyebrow and looked at it.
Thanks to Silverhand's unrelenting praise, Lockhart is now a different person.
He used to be a famous writer.
Now Lockhart is a powerful wizard, a fighter against Death Eaters, a brave warrior, and a hero who protects the people.
Once his book was released, it set a new record.
The shampoo is also sold abroad and is well received.
His money has already reached the point where he can't spend it all, and he is now keen on charity.
Like Dharma Alex, once a person reaches a certain level of wealth, what he pursues is not money.
"Gilderoy Lockhart announced that he will donate half of the proceeds from his new book to the Young Wizards Fund to bring warmth to the children of the Neon Incident"
As soon as this news came out, the Neon Ministry of Magic, which had been gradually fading away, was once again pushed to the forefront.
The Neon Ministry of Magic also keeps dragging its feet, with their Minister of Magic bowing over and over again, but there is no real solution.
Many political parties in the country compete with each other for power.
External pressure is exerted.
The Neon Ministry hated John.
John was not afraid of this either.
If the Neon Ministry of Magic continued to jump up and down, he wouldn't mind making them suffer some more.
Tang Mi wrote a letter telling him about sending Muggle children home.
This matter is still fermenting.
Some Muggle parents were killed, leaving Muggle children orphaned.
John frowned.
"It seems they died too easily."
John didn't regret what happened at the magic house, he just regretted that he let those people die too easily.
The tortured Muggle children had nowhere to go, and John had a headache.
"You can't raise a bunch of Muggles in the wizarding world."
He was thinking about the placement method in his mind.
Voldemort's face appeared in his mind.
"Maybe I can open a welfare home." Rubbing the ring with his fingers, John felt that this method was feasible.
I am so used to thinking about problems in terms of wizards that I almost forgot that they can be solved simply.
He had an idea in his mind, and he could just adopt those homeless Muggle children together.
It’s just that a welfare home is not that easy to open.
But he is not helpless.
Taking out a piece of parchment, he wrote a letter to his father.
"It just so happens that dad can also be a great philanthropist."
Give the written letter to Basil and watch the snowy owl fly out of the castle.
John also wrote a letter to Lockhart, thanking him for his donation to the Young Wizards Fund.
Due to Lockhart's celebrity, the Little Wizards Fund experienced a wave of donations.
Celebrities from all walks of life began donating to the fund, as if not doing so would seem out of place.
This resulted in another huge profit for the already wealthy foundation.
...
John's schedule for this school year is simple.
Hagrid's classes, looking for the Chamber of Secrets, and occasionally meeting Slughorn to discuss things about Bloodborne.
He had plenty of time and visited almost every place in Hogwarts.
He even went to the *** area several times.
Ms. Pince pretended not to notice his behavior.
"No, where is the place that even the smartest person can't find?"
John began to have some doubts about the authenticity of this secret room.
He visited almost every place associated with wisdom, even the principal's office.
But there is no place where there is a Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets.
John had a headache trying to find Hufflepuff's secret room without any clues.
"That's right. If it were simple, we wouldn't encounter him once every seven years." John comforted himself.
Back in the common room, he received a reply.
One was from Dad, telling John that he had bought a piece of land outside London.
John wants to build an orphanage. Because of the special circumstances, it cannot be allowed to be in the magical world, nor can it be noticed by too many Muggles.
The countryside is a good choice and will not attract attention when building a house.
But the administrators still need Dad's help in finding them, and he doesn't plan to let the wizard become the administrator.
With a wizard's way of thinking, he was afraid that those Muggle children would be troubled by wizards.
You don't expect a wizard who throws a child down a building to see if he's a squib to have much Muggle common sense.
The second letter was from Lockhart.
The former Ravenclaw student mentioned in his reply that his new book is about love.
He wanted to challenge his weaknesses and try new types of writing.
In this regard, John's mind appeared in the books written by Lockhart, in which there were banshees, vampires and the like.
Don’t those loves feel twisted?
A wise man never falls in love.
I don’t know what Ravenclaw’s understanding of love is.
Silently, John put the letter down and could only wish Lockhart continued success.
Just as he was about to pick up the third letter, he paused.
"A wise man never falls in love?"
...
