Dear Ollivander,
I have recently made some new achievements in wand making, but unfortunately the wand I made is still not as good as the one I bought from you.
I wanted to continue discussing wand learning with you, but something happened recently, so I had to write you this letter. You may have encountered some troubles. Do you remember what I told you when you came to Hogwarts last time
That might be coming true.
If you don't want to disappear mysteriously or be killed innocently, I suggest you find a place to hide first, under the pretext of traveling on vacation, or find other reasons.
This is a friendly reminder from a fortune teller.
If you don't believe this nonsense, please pay attention to the end of June, when the signs will appear.
No matter what the final result is, I can only send you my best wishes in this letter.
Note: Please do not make this public, as it will only cause unnecessary trouble.
Your old friend
Albert Anderson.
After the contents of the letter were automatically read, the parchment burst into flames.
Ollivander let go in astonishment, letting the parchment fall onto the table and quickly burn into a pile of ashes. He stared blankly at the ashes on the table and fell into a brief silence.
Certain memories deep in the old man's mind were awakened by this letter.
He remembered Mr. Anderson saying something similar to him.
At that time, Ollivander went to Hogwarts to check the wands of the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament, and Albert reminded him privately.
Fooling around
Ollivander didn't think so, and there was no need for the other party to do that. It was too cheap, and Anderson was not that kind of person.
He is a talented wizard who has won many world-class championship titles and is well-known in the magical world. Writing this letter to him is more like a kind reminder.
Ollivander still remembered a sentence in the letter: Please pay attention to the end of June, the omen will appear at that time.
The end of June is approaching, what will happen then
However, the situation this year is indeed very bad. The series of incomprehensible actions of the Ministry of Magic and the repeated suppression of Dumbledore all indicate one thing - the mysterious man may have returned.
In fact, any wizard with a normal mind can feel the subtle changes in the situation in the wizarding world, especially the Azkaban prison break a while ago, which is a bad omen no matter how you look at it.
It's just that many people are waiting and watching.
Yes, wait and see.
The appearance of this letter also made Ollivander feel very uneasy, but he was still a little hesitant. If he just left, where would the freshmen of Hogwarts buy new wands
The letter also reminded him that something would happen at the end of June... maybe...
After much hesitation, Ollivander decided to wait until the end of June to see what Albert meant by the omen. If the situation was really bad, it would not be too late to leave then.
Before that, Ollivander planned to write back to Anderson first. No matter what, he had to thank Anderson for his warning and reminder.
Another person who also received the reminder was Florin Fosco, who was obviously more decisive than Ollivander. As an old friend of Albert, Florin Fosco was very clear about the character and academic level of this young genius. He had also heard that Albert was a master of prophecy, and he would not think that this was a misleading letter.
After reading the contents of the letter, Florin Fusco realized that he might be in big trouble.
So, he decisively began to pack up his things, planning to go out and avoid the limelight. Even if the prophecy was proven to be false in the end, it didn't matter. Opening an ice cream shop was more of a hobby.
Florin Fosco wrote to several old friends again, mentioning that he was going to travel.
As for where to travel, Florin Fusco did not mention.
His ice cream shop is also temporarily closed.
In fact, not only Garrick Ollivander and Florin Fosco received letters from Albert, but other old friends who were close to Albert also received similar letters, reminding them of the impending danger.
As long as the wizards knew about Albert's predictive ability, they would not take the content of this letter as a joke. A few people responded immediately like Florin Fusco after receiving the letter. Hertok Dagworth was one of them. After receiving Albert's letter, this famous potion master had decided to go abroad to find his old friend and study the improved formula given by Albert.
However, more people chose to wait and see what the omen Albert mentioned was. They would not easily give up their original lives because of a letter.
At this moment, in a secret manor somewhere in the UK, members of the Wildsmith family are holding an emergency meeting. As the group closest to Albert, they are naturally the first to know about this. They also know the reason for Albert's warning - Voldemort has resurrected!
"It seems that the specific time should be the end of June."
Bud intertwined his fingers and placed them on the table. He looked up at the other people around him and said indifferently, "According to the content of Albert's letter, the secret of the resurrection of the mysterious man should be completely revealed before July, and the entire magic world will then fall into panic and chaos."
"I thought you would be more concerned about his wedding." Mog looked at Bud, then at the others and asked, "You guys haven't announced the specific time and place yet, right?"
"Not yet." Bud also looked at the other two old friends.
"I won't get involved in this matter," Gerber said suddenly. After all, if he went, it would only add to the embarrassment and might bring unnecessary trouble to the Smith family.
If Albert is really targeted by a mysterious person, he cannot maintain a close relationship with him in public, and the British side also needs to keep people to observe the situation. Otherwise, if everyone runs away, who will be in charge of the affairs in the UK
Gerber is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. He is the elder of the Smith family. As long as he does not offend the mysterious man, the Death Eaters will not touch him easily, because the mysterious man also needs the support of pure-blood wizards.
"If we are really targeted by the You-Know-Who, we have to be careful. Although Albert said he would invite Dumbledore to the wedding." Tiberius Ogden frowned and said, "With Dumbledore here, the You-Know-Who shouldn't dare to act recklessly, but I'm still a little worried about the safety of the wedding. After all, that might be Albert's biggest flaw."
To them, this wedding was obviously not as important as Albert's life. If necessary, it would not be a problem to reduce the number of participants to a few people. It would just be a loss of a good opportunity to gather contacts.
They had also thought about postponing the wedding, but that was obviously unreliable. God knows when this war will end!
As witnesses of two Dark Lords and the last wizarding war, they knew it would take a long time for the wizarding world to restore peace.
By the time the mysterious man surfaces and even succeeds in controlling the Ministry of Magic, the situation will become even worse. It would be better to solve the wedding problem in advance.
This wedding was planned to be held right after Albert graduated. In fact, there was another reason, that is, Nicolas Flamel and his wife could not hold on any longer. The resurrection medicine they had prepared was about to run out. The two of them attending the wedding as witnesses also had special significance.
"We have to discuss this with Albert. We must find a safer and more reliable way to hold this wedding." Tiberus Ogden tapped the table with his fingers and said, "If necessary, the invitations that have been sent out can be directly invalidated. I remember that the specific time will be notified one day in advance."
"This is the worst case scenario." Mog said softly, "I bet Albert has already thought of a solution. Don't underestimate him."
In fact, they were holding an emergency meeting here to discuss remedial measures.
This is also the common opinion of everyone. It is rare to have such a talented younger generation. They will never allow any accidents to happen to Albert.
Whether it is Tiberus, Gerber or Bud, they are all very old and may leave at any time. They need fresh blood to replenish them.
If the next successor dies inexplicably, the entire Wildsmith family will be in serious trouble.
What's worse is that Yin Zebeier, who is a substitute and also one of the protagonists of the wedding, would have a heart attack if he were to be killed.
"When the time comes, I will go find Dumbledore and try to get him to attend the wedding even if I have to." Tiberus Ogden said softly.
They need the most powerful wizard in history to be in charge so that the You-Know-Who and the Death Eaters will be afraid and give up the idea of holding a wedding.
"How about taking the next Minister of Magic along?" Gerber suddenly suggested.
In Abbott's judgment, the next minister would most likely be Stringer, as Amelia Bones might be murdered.
If she hadn't died, she would have become a minister.
"I don't think Stringer will be in the mood to attend the wedding by then, and I suspect the Ministry of Magic has been seriously infiltrated. Doing so may lead to the location of the wedding being leaked."
"If things get really bad, use the Fidelius Charm." Bard said suddenly. He actually didn't care much about the manor.
Each of them has several manors, since they are all very rich. What's more, some of them were inherited by their predecessors.
It was a few days later when Albert learned about the whole thing.
In fact, Albert had already made reasonable arrangements for all of this. After some discussion, they decided to use the Fidelius Charm on the manor to ensure that no other problems would arise during the period.
This made Albert feel once again how wealthy these people were.
As soon as they returned to Hogwarts, Fred and George came to talk about their surprise eggs and farewell plans during Easter.
"The idea of surprise Easter eggs is good, but if they are used as joke props, they will not be surprising anymore." Albert told them his suggestion, "Maybe you should make different types of Easter eggs so that people can have different surprises when they open them."
"Different styles of Easter eggs?"
"For example, some Easter eggs are normal eggs with candies inside, some contain exquisite toys, and some contain joke props. When people open them, they can get different surprises. This is a real surprise, just like eating Bibi's every-flavor beans."
"You're right." George nodded in agreement. "Before, we were more focused on playing tricks on people. It might be a little surprising at the beginning, but it will get boring after a while."
"What about the curtain call?" Fred asked.
"It's a good idea, but you have to seize the opportunity and turn yourself into a hero against Umbridge," Albert reminded.
Not long after the two of them left, Albert saw Hermione walking towards them hurriedly. She pulled him to a deserted place to talk about Harry's bold plan, hoping to get some useful advice from Albert.
"There's nothing wrong with Potter's plan. He is a lucky man. As long as he is prepared, he doesn't need to worry about his life." Albert comforted him, "Besides, Potter is the savior. Some things are unavoidable after all. Even if he avoids them this time, it won't solve the problem. He will have to face them sooner or later, or even worse."
"Do you think so?"
"Harry is lucky to have a lot of helpers who can help him through the most difficult period," Albert reminded. "If he needs to face it alone without any experience, the situation will be even worse."
Hermione suddenly didn't know what to say. She also realized that it was impossible to persuade Harry to give up. Perhaps as Albert said, the best choice was to face it bravely while being prepared.
After Hermione left, Albert just returned to the common room and saw Lee Jordan waving at him with an owl.
"Looking for your letter."
After Albert walked in, Lee Jordan immediately pointed to the owl next to him and reminded him.
"Where's the letter?" Albert noticed that Lee Jordan didn't have a letter in his hand, so he looked at the owl.
"I don't know. I was not allowed to touch this thing and I got scratched." Lee Jordan pointed at the scratches on his hand and complained to Albert.
"Let Madam Pomfrey clean the wound. I dare say she can heal it in the blink of an eye." Albert untied the small metal tube beside the owl's right foot and took out a small roll of parchment from it. The date and time were written in French on it: April 22nd, 8 o'clock in the evening.
"What does this mean?" Lee Jordan asked puzzled.
"The agreed time."
To be precise, the specific time when the two parties used the two-way mirror to communicate was exactly the day after the Easter holiday.
“I really don’t understand.”
Lee Jordan took the owl to release it and visited the school hospital at the same time.
This is actually a letter from Nicolas Flamel. Although the sender is not mentioned, it is not difficult to guess who the letter is from because there are alchemical symbols left by Nicolas Flamel on the metal tube.
That was the secret code between the two sides.
If the communication bookmark would not gradually become ineffective when the distance is too far, it would be more convenient to use that thing for short-term contact.
