"You want to ask about Albert?" Upon seeing this, Allen thoughtfully asked first.
"Yes." Seeing that her intentions had been seen through, Hibiscus Chinensis instead became generous. "I want you to help me ask Albert if he has time for the Christmas ball and if he is willing to be my dance partner."
Her eyes flashed with a mischievous light as she continued, "If Albert is unable to come, and I am unwilling to dance with anyone else, then you can only replace him as his younger brother."
Allen's body involuntarily moved slightly away from her as he nodded repeatedly.
Originally, Allen had intended to have a chat with Mr. Harris after the match. Hibiscus Chinensis's matter was not a big deal, after all, it was related to his older brother Albert's lifelong happiness.
Upon returning to the castle, Allen immediately sent Benny to deliver a note to Mr. Harris for a face-to-face interview.
At eight o 'clock in the evening, Family Harris' tower, Mr. Harris arrived as promised.
The two of them sat on the spacious and comfortable sofa as Allen repeated to Mr. Harris the conversation between him and Dumbledore that night. At the same time, he also told Mr. Harris about Krum's several conversations since the World Cup and the change in his attitude.
"Child, what you are thinking is the truth." Mr. Harris took a sip of the coffee in front of him, organized his thoughts, and continued, "We are a pureblood family in Germany, and your great-grandfather, Joachim Greenwald, was a hardcore member of Greenwald's family. The Harris Family was a hardcore supporter of Grindelwald. After the fall of Grindelwald, the situation of the other pureblood families, who had chosen the wrong side like our Harris Family, was turned upside down. It was like falling from heaven to hell. We had no choice but to move some of the German pureblood families to England. "
After saying this, Mr. Harris looked at his youngest son's expression.
Allen's natural disposition was steady, and after hearing this news, his expression did not change.
Mr. Harris nodded and continued, "In England, although this matter is known by many pureblood families, it is still rare for ordinary wizards to know. The reason why I did not tell you before was because at that time, you did not know the Brain Seal spell, nor did you show outstanding intelligence and steady character. "
"Then during the summer vacation, when you and mother disappeared?" Allen asked softly.
Mr. Harris nodded approvingly, happy for his son's quick-wittedness. "Yes, we went to see Greenwald. Out of courtesy, I invited Greenwald to come out of retirement. "
Both Mr. Harris and Allen showed a tacit smile on their faces. With Family Harris' current situation, of course, they did not want to invite a mountain to suppress them. The reason why Mr. Harris went to visit Greenwald was, of course, not only out of courtesy, he knew that Greenwald would never come out of retirement. More importantly, he wanted to use Greenwald's connections to take over those who used to follow Greenwald.
"He helped me write some letters to contact some people, and these families are more or less related to our Family Harris. Now, the older ones have been placed in the family's various businesses, and the younger ones are receiving the same training as Aura." Mr. Harris smiled, and his body fell back into the sofa comfortably.
"Greenwald was a hero in the past, and now he also wants to find a way out for the descendants of those who used to follow him. Family Harris has the brightest future among these families, and it is relatively easy for us to obtain the support of the descendants of those pure-blood families who were persecuted because of their ancestors who followed Greenwald. After all, since Greenwald's fall, their reputation has been ruined, and it is extremely difficult for them to recover. Compared to the extravagant life they used to live, it is like heaven and earth. "
Mr. Harris looked at Allen with gratification. If Allen did not obtain an immeasurable amount of wealth from the vampire manor, Mr. Harris would only be a muddle-headed official in the Ministry of Magic.
Not only that, Allen also found various methods to increase his strength, and these were the reasons why Mr. Harris dared to use those precious treasures.
"You once said that Lord Voldemort is about to return to the magic world, so we can use this opportunity to destroy him and the pure-blood families behind him." Mr. Harris sneered, "Anyway, we will have to face these stubborn people sooner or later. Our Harris family is still too small, and the new blood from Greenwald can help us take root in England. "
Allen raised the coffee cup beside him and toasted with Mr. Harris.
"Father, there is one more thing I want to talk to you about." After talking about business, Allen remembered Hibiscus Chinensis's request.
"Albert has been a little busy recently." Mr. Harris muttered and showed a troubled expression, "But, you said that this girl named Hibiscus Chinensis and Albert both have feelings for each other, what kind of girl is she?"
"Beautiful!" Allen blurted out. Mr. Harris frowned.
"In fact, she is more beautiful than the rumors say, but her strength and wisdom are better than her beauty. She is one of the Warriors in the Three Wizards Tournament. Father, with your status, you are fully qualified to attend the Hogwarts' ball. Wouldn't it be a good thing to bring Albert along? " Allen put in a good word for Hibiscus Chinensis. On one hand, he did want Albert to be happy. On the other hand, he definitely didn't want his dance partner to become Hibiscus Chinensis.
Mr. Harris muttered to himself for a moment, "I will ask Foggy to bring Albert to this ball. Recently, as our Family Harris's power grows day by day, Foggy's attitude towards me is as friendly as ever, but I can sense that his heart has changed. This request for personal reasons can also be seen as our Family Harris's goodwill towards him. Now is not the time to fall out with Foggy. "
Allen agreed with Mr. Harris's words. From the big picture, his consideration and choice were very wise. There was no doubt that Mr. Harris had become a mature politician.
"By the way, you must be more careful these days. Azkaban prisoners broke out again during your first match. Someone attacked Aura's prison guard and used the compound potion to sneak into the prison. Then, they used the compound potion to replace the prisoners who should have been released with Death Eaters who shouldn't have been released, "Mr. Harris warned Allen.
"Foggy doesn't have the face to admit to the magic world that Azkaban broke out again. He tightly covered the lid and didn't let the news leak. He also couldn't find out who did it. Hehe. "Mr. Harris curled his lips contemptuously.
"Barty Crouch Jr." Allen said in a deep voice, "When I probed him before, I heard him say that he wanted to find some helpers."
Allen used his eidetic memory to recall the teachers' area during the match and didn't find Moody's whereabouts.
