"What are you thinking about?"
"I want to introduce you to my family sometime."
"Have you told your family about us?"
"Not yet." Albert shook his head. "They told me to bring my girlfriend back if I have one."
"Oh, Muggles start dating at an early age?" Isobel asked curiously.
"They were worried that I wouldn't be able to find a girlfriend." Albert couldn't help but smile bitterly. "They got married at a very young age. Ever since they knew there were only a few students at Hogwarts, they started urging me to find a girlfriend as soon as possible and get you as soon as possible."
"By the way, I told my mother about us."
The girl in the mirror twirled her red hair with her fingers and said with a smile, "However, you created a lot of scandals just a few days after I told her. Mom was very suspicious of my judgment. Fortunately, you quickly resolved the scandal. Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have a very good impression of you."
"Think I'm a philandering bastard?" Albert asked back.
"That's right." The girl sighed softly, "People's preconceived ideas are still very strong."
"I hope I didn't make too bad of an impression on her."
"Although it wasn't very good at the beginning, you handled it very quickly. Mom actually has a good impression of you." Isobel loosened her hair that was entangled with her fingertips and smiled happily. "She recognizes your ability."
Everyone knows what kind of person Rita Skeeter is, but normally, everyone still likes to read the articles written by that woman.
After all, the article is very interesting, full of gossip and scandals.
As long as it doesn't involve their own affairs, no one would reject such an article.
Anyway, those who like to watch the fun never think it’s too big to cause trouble.
"Are you free next week?" Isobel asked suddenly.
For some reason, Albert felt that Isobel's cheeks were a little red. He rarely saw her blushing, so he couldn't help but be very curious: "Are you going to invite me to your house?"
The girl actually rolled her eyes at him, which was rare. "Mom wants to invite you to my house for dinner."
"How about you come to my house first?"
"Forget it, let's wait until your sister is older!" Isobel did not agree immediately, "Besides, I remember that we actually met once by chance in Diagon Alley."
Albert recalled it briefly and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
"Okay, so how do I get to your place?"
"Take the Knight Bus," Isobel said without hesitation. "I can reserve a parking space for you."
"I heard that thing is very uncomfortable to sit on." Albert did not refuse. He was just considering whether he should bring some gifts.
Of course, it doesn’t really matter, but sometimes you always have to worry about trivial things.
"That's it, I'll let you know when the time is confirmed." Isobel added, "Mom has been very busy, and spends most of her time working at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries."
"Come to think of it, I think we do have a lot in common." Albert couldn't help but sigh, but his attention was soon attracted by the noise outside the window.
Sheila flew in from outside. The owl disappeared inexplicably in the morning. It must have gone to the Weasley family to pick up the mail.
Judging from the time, Fred and George should have rescued Potter.
Sheila fell on the table and almost pushed the two-way mirror off the table. Fortunately, Albert moved the mirror away in time.
"You are such a busy man!"
Isobel also noticed the owl that landed in front of Albert.
Sheila was startled by the sudden sound, turned her head and looked around, finally shaking her head, staring at the figure in the mirror, and touching the mirror with her head.
"That's all for now, see you tomorrow night."
As he spoke, the figure in the two-way mirror disappeared.
"Look, you scared people away again!" Albert stroked the owl's head jokingly, took out the letter and looked at the sender's name, it was Hermione.
In the letter, Hermione told Albert that Harry had been rescued from his uncle's house by Ron, George and Fred.
Judging from the description in the letter, Hermione strongly disapproved of the three people's risky behavior.
It's really unbelievable how dare they do that.
If they were seen driving a flying car, they would definitely be expelled from school, and even Mr. Weasley would be implicated and lose his job.
I have to say that most of the time, Hermione's mind is quite rational.
The letter also mentioned that the house-elves intercepted Harry's letters.
Hermione wrote to him:
Harry thinks someone is trying to play a trick on him. I think this is very suspicious. What do you think about this
At the end of the letter, Hermione included the date she and Harry were to meet in Diagon Alley.
"What was the name of the Malfoy family's house elf?" Albert murmured, "In the end, it seemed to have died while saving Harry."
Albert didn't need to go to Diagon Alley, because he had already been there. He went there not long ago when he met Rita Skeeter and bought all the books.
Nia had complained about this a lot because they had lunch at Uncle Charlie's store while they waited for him to come back.
Charlie's milk tea shop is still very popular, but the varieties and flavors of milk tea are getting weirder. However, the fragrant potato grilled cheese recommended by Albert to Charlie is well received.
The British are very good at cooking potatoes, just like the Chinese can cook rice in a hundred different ways.
As for why the Malfoy elf went to warn Harry, Albert naturally knew the reason.
He had not thought of preventing the issue of the secret room. It was in his interest to use this incident to trigger more tasks.
However, if you want to gain more benefits from this, you need to do some calculations.
"Why do I feel like I'm becoming more and more like a conspirator!" Albert touched his chin and muttered to himself.
As he spoke, he took out a piece of parchment from the drawer and began to write to Hermione:
"This matter is very strange. If what Harry described is correct, then there is a big problem. House elves basically will not disobey the orders of their masters. If they do, it means that this matter is likely to be true."
"Because house-elves generally cannot use magic without the permission of their masters." Albert thought for a moment and continued writing: "He refused to tell Harry who was behind all this. I guess that guy is the master of the house-elf. House-elves have to protect their masters, so it is normal that they cannot speak out. With a little speculation, it is not difficult to guess."
"From the way the house-elf hit its head against the wall, I don't think it deceived Harry, because that is a way for the house-elf to punish itself." Albert had made a special effort to learn about house-elves.
Of course, most of what he wrote in the letter were his random analysis. Although it was a bit nonsense, Albert believed that Hermione would believe it to some extent, and it would at least arouse her vigilance.
"So, you'd better tell Potter to be careful. I have a feeling that he might be unlucky this year." After Albert finished writing, he noticed Sheila's gaze, smiled and put the letter into the drawer, raised his hand and nodded its head, "Don't worry, it won't be too late to deliver the letter after you recover your strength. With me, you will never have to worry about having nothing to do."
