Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

Chapter 69 Doesn’t your conscience hurt?

"Ah!" Rita Skeeter exclaimed. She looked at Murphy holding the wand and seemed to realize at this moment that the other party might really be a dark wizard.

She ran towards the door in horror, only to find that the door had been tightly sealed with a restraining spell.

"You, what are you going to do?!" Skeeter panicked, and finally remembered to take out his wand.

Murphy paid no attention to the stick in her hand.

He still sat at the table and even took a sip of the black tea beside him.

"Why don't you turn yourself into a beetle and slip out through the crack in the door?" Murphy put down the tea cup and looked at Skeeter expressionlessly, "Can you do that?"

Rita Skeeter was shocked, "W-what do you mean?"

"Guess, if I tell you this secret, will you be able to get so many exclusive secrets in the future?"

"Your report has offended a lot of people. If they knew that you got the information this way, do you think they would put you in Azkaban?"

"You...how did you know?"

Murphy did not answer, but said: "From today on, whenever I see a word of slander against me in your articles, that shorthand pen will be your example."

"You... threaten me?!"

Murphy shook his head, "What are you talking about, Reporter Skeeter, I am a good person, how could I threaten others?"

Rita Skeeter was still in shock. For a while, she assessed the authenticity of Murphy's threat, and finally found sadly that the other party might be serious, and he might actually be able to do it.

Dark wizard!

There is no doubt that this guy is a black wizard through and through!

From his behavior just now of burning his shorthand pen and notebook without blinking an eye, it can be seen that this guy is absolutely ruthless and decisive.

Can't afford to offend...

Although Rita Skeeter dared to call Murphy a dark wizard, she immediately gave up once she realized that he was really a dark wizard.

She always picked on the weaklings when she wrote those things. She was very good at bullying an honest person, but really going to confront a dark wizard?

What a joke!

Do you want to die? !

She, Rita Skeeter, is a woman who wants to reach the top of the wizarding journalism world. How could she do something that is too long-lasting?

Seeing the silence of the other party, Murphy knew that she had learned her lesson and stood up, "By the way, I have some good news for you. I have invested in the Daily Prophet. From now on, I will be one of your bosses."

"I will double your salary. But from now on, you will write whatever I ask you to write for me. If you dare to disobey my order..."

Murphy didn't say any more, but Rita Skeeter already understood. She nodded palely, "I, I understand."

"very good."

Murphy said, taking out another set of notebooks and sketch pens from behind, "In the future, use this for work."

"Now, come with me, I'll give you big news."

The second basement level of the Ministry of Magic.

Auror office.

In the interrogation room, the interrogation of Alex Wood has been going on for ten minutes.

However, to everyone's surprise, this guy turned out to be surprisingly tough.

Apart from admitting his identity and admitting his employment relationship with Murphy, this guy said almost nothing and remained tight-lipped.

"Boss, what should I do?" An Auror looked at Kingsley anxiously, "Murphy Darkholm may arrive at any time. If there is no evidence, we will have to let him go."

Kingsley also frowned, "Are you sure he is Alex Wood?"

"Paped has seen it, and we have a picture of him, and the anti-thief potion didn't change anything when he poured it on. He didn't drink Polyjuice Potion, unless he was a Metamorphmagus."

"Boss, use Legilimency!" Another Auror said, "We don't have time, use Legilimency to find some clues, don't worry he won't tell you!"

The use of Legilimency for interrogation requires approval, and even among Aurors, there are not many people who are proficient in this spell. If used improperly, it may cause some psychological damage to the person being interrogated. Therefore, the testimony obtained by Legilimency is usually It cannot be used as evidence in court, and Aurors rarely use Legilimency right away.

But obviously, now has reached an emergency moment, and Kingsley said without hesitation, "Okay!"

An Auror immediately used Legilimency on Alex Wood, but after a while, he frowned, "Something's wrong, this guy might have Occlumency! I can hardly read anything useful!"

"Boss!" An Auror suddenly walked in, "Murphy went to find reporters, they are coming this way!"

"Troll's rotten teeth!" an Auror cursed, "Why is this guy so tough-mouthed! If we can't get evidence and reporters catch us arresting people at will, we'll be in trouble!"

"Boss, why don't you let him go first?" Another Auror asked tentatively.

"Fuck you!" an older Auror next to him was furious, "Fuck it? Will Basque and Frank's revenge be avenged? Damn it, if your kid dies outside on a mission, I will never shed a tear. flow!"

"enough!"

Kingsley gritted his teeth and suddenly grabbed Alex Wood by the collar, "Look at me! Boy, look at me!"

"You think you are loyal! But you are helping a devil! He has injured two Aurors! He will do whatever it takes for his own selfish desires! Look at me! Think of those who have been harmed by him, think of their Wife and daughter! Doesn’t your conscience hurt?!”

"I, I...I don't remember...I don't know..."

Alex spoke with difficulty, and he suddenly held his head, "I can't say, I can't say...I can't say, he is a devil, I can't say...can't..."

"Coward!" Kingsley couldn't help but punch Alex in the face, "Look at me! Alex! I know you are a filial son! You send money to your mother every month, I know you have My own conscience!”

"But he is committing a crime! He has put all of us and the entire wizarding world in danger! He sold potions to Muggles for his own selfish purposes! Have you ever thought about the consequences of what he did? Have you ever thought about it? But what will happen if the existence of wizards is discovered by Muggles?"

"We will die a lot! More than during the witch-hunting era! His Muggle currency was earned at the risk of putting all wizards on the guillotine!"

"When you sent those Galleons to your mother, did you ever think that it would be stained with the blood of wizards in the future?!"

Alex looked at him blankly, "What are you talking about? I...what did I do, I don't...I can't say, yes, I can't say...don't force me..."

"you!"

Kingsley clenched his fists, extremely disappointed. He suddenly pushed Alex away and turned to the other Auror: "Have someone stop Murphy and give him Veritaserum! Quick!"
