Chapter 229 Countdown to leaving

Because Furong always came to his office to disturb, Locke simply searched all morning, went directly to the door of the Delacour family, and asked them to use the treasured magic books and family collections to compensate for the liquidated damages, which was regarded as a settlement of the matter.

Locke doesn't care about assets. After all, he doesn't lack Galleons. What he values ​​more is the secret magic of these ancient families. Therefore, the financial compensation only extracts the cash from the Delacour family, and does not allow them to sell their assets on a large scale. the point.

Looking at the almost evacuated family collection room, the patriarch of the Delacour family looked ugly, but he still breathed a sigh of relief.

Now there are rumors in the wizarding world that Locke is the mastermind behind the complete killing of Voldemort. Especially recently, several pure-blood families suspected of being Death Eaters suddenly stood up for him, which made him even more convinced of the rumor that he might be the heir of the Dark Lord.

Such a powerful wizard accidentally offended him before, and he was able to settle it just by paying these prices, which is already very lucky.

There are copies of the magic books in the family's secret collection, and they are not worried about losing them from now on. Most of the property has been retained, which finally allows the Delacour family to barely maintain their current status.

"Why did you come here again? The matter between me and your family has been settled." Not long after returning to the academy, Locke met Fu Rong who came to visit again.

"Mother has already told me." Fu Rong said with a grateful smile: "I came this time to thank Mr. Locke for letting the family go. This is a pastry I prepared myself, although it is not worth mentioning. , but just to express my gratitude."

"You don't need to do these things." The other party came to the door to thank him, but Locke didn't chase them away, and opened the door to let Fu Rong in.

The two of them had some politeness, Furong asked Locke some magic questions in order to find a topic, and Locke answered it casually.

His current knowledge of magic may be worse than that of a wizard like Dumbledore who has lived for a hundred years, but it is far from what ordinary wizards can compare.

In fact, as in the rumors, if Locke really wanted to become the Dark Lord, it would not be difficult at all, and he was much stronger than Voldemort, the bald, hip-pull, even if Dumbledore was in his heyday. It is estimated that it is not necessarily an opponent.

Originally, Furong was just looking for topics, but she didn't expect that Locke explained it in great detail, and even included many tips and tricks, which benefited her a lot, and made her feel that Locke's level is better than those of her in Beauxbatons. Professors are much stronger.

A feeling of admiration arose from the bottom of her heart, and in addition to the fact that Locke had saved her before, Furong looked at Locke with a slightly confused look involuntarily.

"This little girl looks like she is inviting me to teach her more deeply." Looking at Furong's expression, Locke thought to himself.

Furong's Veela bloodline makes her even more charming when she is emotional. Locke knows that he needs to take the initiative at this time...

Early the next morning, when Hermione came to look for Locke, she happened to bump into Fleur who came out of Locke's office.

Perhaps Locke taught too much last night. Fleur, who had initially developed Veela blood, looked a little tired and lazy at the moment, but her face was rosy and shiny, and the corners of her eyes made Hermione, who is also a girl, couldn't bear it. I couldn't help but froze.

But the next moment, the alarm bells in Hermione's mind rang loudly. She came out of the teacher's room so early and looked like this. Did something happen?

Hermione is still young now, but she is not a little girl who doesn't understand anything. Thinking of what might happen, she tentatively said to Fu Rong: "Senior Fu Rong, what's the matter with you coming to see the teacher so early?" ?”

"Ah, no, it's nothing, I just have some magic questions to ask Mr. Locke." Suddenly meeting Hermione, Fleur also felt a little flustered, and she answered with a little panic, which made Hermione more sure of her own. guess.

"Hmph!" The little girl couldn't help but pouted, these Beauxbaton girls are really disgusting, they actually seduced the teacher.

Thinking of this, Hermione stopped talking to Fleur, turned her head and pushed open the door of the office, and then closed it heavily.

When she came to the classroom, she looked at the steamed stuffed buns on Locke's desk, and instead of saying hello as sweetly as before, she directly took one and took a bite. Since following Locke, her eating habits have also changed. Small changes.

Seeing her like this, Locke smiled and didn't say anything. He couldn't cover up some things, otherwise it might be more harmonious at the beginning, but the thunderstorm later will definitely not be easy.

Recently, Locke is most concerned about obtaining the craft of the goblin, but this matter is not smooth, and even if he tries to investigate it himself, there is no substantial gain.

Goblins are too strict in this aspect, otherwise Locke would definitely not be the first wizard who had the idea of ​​goblin crafts over the years, that is, Nicolas May used a special opportunity to get some of them, but there are still a lot of truly precious crafts Can't get it.

In the end, Locke decided that if he couldn't get it through secret investigation before leaving, he would directly grab it and return directly after getting it.

"Mr. Locke, I plan to come to England for an internship during the holidays. Do you have any recommendations?" Fu Rong's face was full of anticipation.

"It's not necessary, I might have left the British wizarding world by then."

Of course, Locke understands what Furong means, and this is also the result of his period of time, but the time limit for his mission has come: "Or I plan to travel, and at least I won't appear in the magic world for a few years."

"What?!" Furong couldn't help being surprised after hearing this: "But..."

"So it's time to say goodbye. Unless you plan to travel with me in the future and you won't come back once in a long time, otherwise, our relationship can only end here."

Locke looked at Fleur, and after his in-depth guidance, her Veela lineage has been well developed. To be honest, Locke also has some fondness for it.

"In that case, I too..."

"Don't rush to make a decision. I'm leaving in about a week, and Hermione will be with me at that time. If you want, pack your bags and come to my office next Thursday morning. It's going to be a long trip. "

The final time limit for the task has come. After a long time of thinking, Hermione finally decided to follow Locke, but Locke knew that Fleur would probably not be like this.

Furong is not the kind of character who is desperate for feelings, and he is more inclined to rationality. In terms of judging girls' thoughts, he feels that his predictions are quite accurate every time, mainly because he has experienced a lot.

Maybe give Locke a little time, and he can train Furong to be inseparable from himself, but what Locke lacks most now is time, especially now that there is only the last week of work left, Locke needs to make a final finish to everything .
