Chapter 528 Hurry up and invite Mr. Clegane!
A Portkey is an enchanted item that teleports anyone who touches it to a designated location.
Compared with Floo powder, Portkey can teleport multiple people at a time, and the destination does not need a fireplace.
At the same time, the Portkey does not require special training like Apparition, even minor wizards can use it.
Most importantly, the Portkey has an almost crushing advantage in ultra-long-distance travel.
Apparation is difficult to travel across continents and countries, but Portkey can do it easily.
William and Hermione wanted to go to England from Albania. Floo powder and Apparation would definitely not work for such a long distance.
It is most convenient and fast to use a door key.
However, the use of Portkeys between two countries must be approved by the Ministry of Magic.
William and Hermione were smuggled across the Adriatic, and there was no way they would get permission.
Even if it is not smuggling, it is impossible to go to the Albanian Ministry of Magic for approval.
Burned down other people's forests and had to explain.You said you had a fight with Voldemort, who will prove it to you?
Voldemort?
If the explanation is invalid, it may be forcibly confiscated, and then you... lose money.
Don't overestimate the bottom line of the Ministry of Magic. If you meet someone like Minister Fudge, who seems to have never seen money in eight lifetimes, you will definitely take the opportunity to demand a sky-high compensation.
All you burned were some trees?
fart!
What you burned...was obviously a precious magic plant planted by the Ministry of Magic.
Each plant is over 3000 years old.The fruit above is even more powerful:
Take one bite to refresh your mind, two bites to never get tired, and three bites to live forever.
If it's this kind of blackmail, even if William is sold, he can't afford it.
He also didn't want to have another wave of prison breaks, destroying Venice, and then destroying the capital of Albania - Tirana!
Since the formal channels cannot go, we can only continue to smuggle.
As a veteran and expert in this field, Grandpa Newt once taught William the life experience of many elders.
He even talked eloquently, as if he knew how to smuggle people better than anyone else.
Newt also introduced to William dozens of wizards who smuggled Portkeys.
Almost all countries with magical animal sanctuaries have acquaintances he knows.
Newt himself never made Portkeys secretly, in his words:
We can't do things that violate the law and discipline.
emmmmm... How much do you do as a co-author?
Since there is a way, William must choose the Portkey.
In the early morning, the two came to a coastline with tired faces.
Last night, it was already late in the night to find Bertha.
After leaving the forest and throwing off the Aurors, William and Hermione got into the safety watch, huddled together on the sofa in the living room, and got a makeshift night's sleep.
Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be some lack of energy in the morning.
On the shore, there was already a wizard standing, he was wrapped in a tattered black robe.
"Yo hoo!" The wizard looked William and Hermione up and down.
At his feet, there was a row of dilapidated iron barrels.
They are all illegally made door keys, and those caught will be sentenced.
"Where are you going?" The wizard stared at William's face, as if he had recognized him.
"U.K."
"Sorry, I can't go to England now." The wizard shook his head.
"Why?" Hermione looked up curiously.
"The UK is hosting the Quidditch World Cup. There are too many smugglers. The British Ministry of Magic has stepped up inspections."
William raised his eyebrows, he didn't know about it.
Well, he hasn't been in touch with Tonks in a while.
However, William still doubted the accuracy of this news.
The Quidditch World Cup has left the British Ministry of Magic in a hurry. Do they really have the time and energy to catch the smuggled wizards?
"I suggest going to France." The wizard said sincerely. "Closer that way."
William thought for a moment, but didn't object.
France is also fine, just go to Clegane to ask for the port key, directly from the official channel, no need to smuggle.
By the way, he can also use the captured wizards to give Clegane a performance.
"How much for the two of us?"
"Two hundred Galleons... Thank you for your patronage." The wizard said with a smile.
"Isn't the market price all [-] per person?" Hermione was taken aback and was very angry at this temporary price increase.
"Going to France is thirty per person, and the other seventy is for me to keep my mouth shut and see Stark and Granger leaving the country illegally."
The portkey dealer grinned and said to William:
"That's the price of being famous, little man! The whole world knows you.
As you all know, you two were in Italy and saved Venice.
Now he suddenly appeared in Albania and wanted to smuggle to Paris.
All major newspapers will be interested in this news... I only charge seventy galleons for hush-hush, and I am already professional! "
"You're right." William shrugged.
"Then pay."
"I refuse!" William shook his head, "...let's sell the news in the newspaper, we don't mind.
Isn't it, Hermione? "
"That's right." Hermione crossed her arms and leaned on William's shoulder.
The Aurors in Albania have already seen them.The news that they are here will break out sooner or later, there is no need to be taken advantage of.
As for smuggling...you say we smuggle, do you have evidence?
In Hogwarts, there are thousands of school rules, and the first one is not to be caught.
As two typical Hogwarts people, William and Hermione must perfectly develop this style and will never admit to smuggling.
They have never been to Albania at all!
"... As for this? Isn't it only two hundred Galleons?" The wizard was also a little speechless.
With such a great reputation, it doesn't look like you are short of money. Why are you two so tight!
William glanced at him and said softly, "We just don't want to be taken advantage of."
You thought I was Malfoy, being slaughtered by Fudge as a pig all day long.
Hermione thought deeply, hugged William's arm, nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and said, "That's it!"
Living life, how can you think your family has too much money? !
"Send it or not, or send us to find another home." William urged.
"Okay, you two are ruthless!"
The wizard muttered "What a stingy guy", and handed over an iron bucket. He cursed: "You will definitely be caught by the French Ministry of Magic!"
"Catch it if you catch it, it's not like you haven't caught it before."
William and Hermione grabbed the bucket.
"Depart in ten seconds..." The wizard glanced at his watch, waved his hand and said:
"I wish you both...French magic...travel...happy..."
The two were dragged away and disappeared without a trace.
William fell to the ground and immediately stabilized his figure.After using it a lot, Hermione just turned pale.
"That wizard...what did you just say?" Hermione shook her dizzy head and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I didn't hear clearly either, wish us a pleasant trip..." William shook his head.
"And the French... or something?" Hermione frowned. "I have a bad feeling."
"Er... Hermione, I think... your hunch was right."
William looked around, took her hand, and said softly: "The man probably said...the French Ministry of Magic."
"How did you know?"
"Because... we are in the French Ministry of Magic!"
William glanced back from the corner of his eye, and there were Aurors standing behind him.
They all raised their wands, looking wary.
William cursed in his heart: "Made, actually fishing for law enforcement!"
Old Infernal Affairs!
"Don't whisper!" A familiar voice sounded.
"You are suspected of using Portkey illegally, and are now arrested by the French Ministry of Magic!
You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will become evidence in court..."
Startled, William turned his head away.
"Costa... Long time no see, you really became an Auror, how are you doing recently?" He smiled.
"Uh...William!!"
Looking at the boy who had kissed him forcefully in public, Costa's face flushed instantly.
She immediately brushed her hair, and stammered, "You... why are you and Hermione here?!"
"We... come to Paris to play." William showed a 'nuclear' smile.
All the French Aurors gasped.
"Go get Mr. Clegane, Stark and Granger... Paris again!
run away! ! "
William: "..."
Hermione: "..."
