HP: For a better world

Chapter 108 The All-Stoat Ornament

Until the next day, when Winster squeezed out of the Transfiguration classroom after class.

Behind him there were sounds of laughter, the sound of the crystal ball being replicated, sounds of scrambling, Malfoy's roar of shame and anger, sounds of things breaking, and a complete chaos.

Professor McGonagall, who had just walked out of the classroom, also shouted at them not to cast spells in the corridor.

It seemed as if overnight, Draco's apology recording became popular throughout Gryffindor. During class, someone would suddenly play a recording several times, causing the whole class to burst into laughter. Professor McGonagall would shut it up, and Draco would be extremely ashamed and angry. Then someone else would burst into laughter for no reason, causing everyone to laugh, and Professor McGonagall would shut it up again...

When they finally walked out of the classroom and encountered this incident again, Professor McGonagall, who could no longer bear it, tied them up with two swooshes, and dragged the two who were laughing the most away in a rage - of course, halfway through the walk, she realized that this was not the right thing to do and quickly loosened the rope... and then continued to ask them to go to her office with a stern face.

Winster silently moved away from the furious Professor McGonagall, took the letter from Summer's legs, unfolded the letter using the railing beside him, and saw only a few brief lines of reply on it.

[I understand. I will deal with it when I come back.

PS: Due to an accident, my return is delayed until the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow's course revision test, the pharmacy is stored and I will come back to correct it.

——S. S]

...It was a very good test, which made me feel refreshed. Winster commented sharply, and then began to pray sincerely that this test was not for him to supervise.

"Is it a letter from Professor Snape?" Draco walked over and asked with dark circles under his eyes and grinning.

He had been looking forward to the dean's return last night. He probably thought that he would be let off because of his transformation into a ferret, and he didn't want to continue the "I'm an idiot" game in the dean's office.

Last night, some bad guys deliberately disgusted him. If Winston hadn't stopped him and made him stay in the lounge with a sign for an hour, he would have wanted to throw down the sign and leave. The whole Slytherin was laughing at him.

But now his expectations were dashed...

Seeing that there was nothing important in the letter, Winster showed it to Draco and told him the bad news.

Draco wailed and pounded his head on the wall next to him, scaring the portrait next to him and making it curse.

Draco said in a particularly resentful voice: "It's all your fault, Winston... If you hadn't forced me to apologize, they wouldn't have the recording in their hands."

"Don't blame it all on me." Hearing this, Winster said unhappily, "That's the price you paid for fighting a duel. You should have known this was a possibility before you lost."

What possibility? The possibility of being laughed at.

Draco's face turned blue and red. In addition, Professor McGonagall attacked all fighting groups equally, so he could only launch a financial offensive in anger. He used his small treasury to buy all the crystal balls with recorded sounds that appeared in the school.

That way no one can play recordings in class anymore.

However, what Draco didn't expect was that a new batch of crystal balls appeared just a few hours later. They were even more disguised than before and could be hidden on the table like learning objects.

There was also a small ferret doll and a wooden model no bigger than the palm of your hand. It couldn't speak, but if you pinched it, two blue tears would suddenly appear next to its eyes, and it would make a whimpering sound and start to cry.

It's really interesting.

But to Draco it meant the exact opposite. Someone was spreading his ugly deeds to make money!

He was so angry, but there was nothing he could do. He spent money to buy all these things. He didn't find the seller, but it was just giving him money. The seller could use the money to continue expanding production.

Draco was unwilling to give money to others.

After spending a large sum of money to buy three crystal balls that were popular in the three colleges, Draco returned to the lounge in disgust and lay on the table next to Winster, sighing.

Winster was reading a book. He ignored his emo expression and calmly turned the page.

...The little doll is actually quite cute. Winster borrowed a doll to check out. It was transformed by the uniform Transfiguration spell. The magic will dissipate after about a month, leaving only a hard wooden model of a ferret.

The cost is not high, but compared to the larger and more expensive crystal balls, this small and cute model has become popular among the girls at Hogwarts.

Luo Ou came over and said, "I found out that it's the Weasley twins who are selling it."

He walked over and sat down beside the table, took the kettle from the table, poured water into the cup, and drank it himself.

Winster pushed a plate of cold dessert over, indicating that this one was cooler.

Luo Ou did not refuse at all. He happily scooped a spoonful into his mouth and said vaguely:

"They were using the name of the Gemini Joke Shop. They burned a crystal ball that night, borrowed a bunch of crystal balls from people around them, copied them and sold them. The next day they started contacting crystal ball shops in Hogwart to buy stock, and sold the stuff from Gryffindor to several other colleges."

He curled his lips: "If the atmosphere is good enough, even people who are not interested in Malfoy's dark history will want to join in."

"What a quick response...they have a really strong business sense."

Winster complained: "Where did you ask that? Did you ask how much they sold it for?"

Draco listened with his ears pricked up. He didn't ask anything, or rather he couldn't help but get angry at those who bought his black history. They were all things that Crabbe and Goyle had bought.

"Three Sickles for a little ferret," Loial quoted. "The crystal ball is the original price of the crystal ball plus two Knuts. They don't make much money. They should be trying to spread the word. I heard it was more expensive last night. They've hired several students to make models of the ferret in the common room. They skipped classes all day just to sell these."

Oops.

Winster smacked his lips.

"When I first came here, I saw that they had just launched a new pendant version of the model, which looked like a flying ferret..." Luo Ou dug into his pocket and took out a small and cute pendant. This time, the pendant didn't even have any magic at all, it just looked like a ferret.

"I bought one and brought it back. Two Knuts for one. I see it's all the rage among girls. All my backpacks are filled with these dolls. There are two types: furry and hairless. I don't think it's possible for you to clear out their warehouse by buying them." Loial finally gloated to Draco, "I'm going to give this to Jenny. Don't look at it anymore."

Draco stared straight at the ferret pendant, his face turning blue, then red, then red, then white, and finally turning into a desperate blue-white color.

He was probably scolding himself in his heart for letting Nott provoke him.

Winster looked away regretfully: "Where did you buy it? Ahem..." He muttered, "I mean, let me destroy this evil den of black history," he said to Draco seriously, "It needs to be severely criticized."

"The Gryffindor Common Room," Loial replied, shrugging. "But you can buy it if you meet them somewhere else. But right now they are furiously carving new ferret models in the common room... and they won't move an inch," he said truthfully. "I asked someone to bring it to me."

"Granger seemed a little unhappy about them disrupting the order of the common room, but she was also interested in the cute pendant," Loial said, scratching his face.

"Hermione?" Winston was surprised. This model must have become popular all over the school, and even Hermione couldn't resist it.

You know, Professor McGonagall received news this afternoon that a bunch of crystal balls were disturbing the class order, and she was furious. Now she confiscates every crystal ball she sees, and vows to add a rule that prohibits the distribution of crystal balls in class to the school rules that Filch is responsible for.

The Weasley twins have not been caught yet despite their actions, so they must be secretly engraving the crystal ball.

Draco was so frustrated that he couldn't speak.

"I'm leaving now. I have a date with Jenny. Bye-"

Loial stood up refreshed and his health restored.

Winster was helpless: "Bye - there is an exam in Potions class tomorrow, remember to prepare!"

he reminded.

Luoou was already halfway out of the lounge and gestured back with his hand.

"--Stop sighing." Winston glanced at Draco and said unsatisfiedly, "How did you manage to be so domineering in Slytherin before? Are you so depressed after a blow?"

Draco stammered, "My father..."

He hadn't dared to tell Lucius about his loss in the duel, but with such a big fuss, someone must have enthusiastically informed Lucius.

"...At least you fulfilled your promise. Compared to someone like Selwyn who threw his honor under his feet, you can get it back from other places later." Winster was speechless for a moment and said unhappily.

There is no need to remember the fact of losing, just tell others that there are people worse than you... Besides, few people have any hope for Malfoy's integrity. It is more surprising that he actually admitted defeat honestly.

"He is a boy without any education from his father..." Draco muttered, but swallowed back his unpleasant words under Winston's calm gaze.

It's not that Winster minded him scolding Selwyn, but it's easy for him to be swept by the map gun... In this life, he is also a child without a father or a mother in the eyes of outsiders. Generally speaking, it can be said that he is uneducated.

Draco shut up.

Winster continued, "Since the purchase cannot be stopped, then destroy the crystal balls they made. They must have an original sample in their hands to be able to continuously reproduce so many. Destroy the source of their spread, and then you can buy all the crystal balls in the school. How much money do you have in your treasury?"

Winster asked suddenly.

Draco frowned and counted: "I still have more than 500 Galleons for pocket money this year... If I need more, I can ask my mother for more money - she will give it to me."

Hey!

Others inherited more than 500 yuan, and you just spent more than 500 yuan a year... and you have already used part of it. The corner of Winster's mouth twitched.

"Then destroy it and then use the money to buy their rights to re-produce it." Winster said without further ado: "Since you still have so much money, why not buy them and try another business."
