Snakes and Rats in the Same Nest

"Brother, I was just inadvertently drawn to your magnificent aura, and couldn't help but stop to admire you for a moment. I didn't mean to disturb you; it was my fault, and I apologize to you here!"

As he spoke, Philip, with his strong survival instinct, knew the principle that money makes things easier, so he immediately pulled out 10 Galleon from his pocket. To avoid Lester misunderstanding, Philip didn't dare to hand the Galleon over, but instead obediently placed them on the ground.

[Ding! You have gained 100 Fear Points towards Philip Hendry]

Lester: "..."

Damn it, Lester looked at Philip's cowardly expression with a bit of speechlessness, then at the Galleon on the ground, and was speechless again.

He came out to make enemies for Quirrell, not to rob people on the road. Sure enough, Lester's performance immediately attracted the attention of many passing dark wizards, who were all watching the farce with great interest.

Lester glanced around, somewhat speechless, and noticed that many black-robed wizards had stopped and were watching from a distance.

[Ding! Gained +56 Fear Points from Irene Garner]

[Ding! Gained Billy Archer's Fear Points +52]

[Ding! Gained +23 Fear Points from Galetti Belon]

[...]

Lester: "..."

Many dark wizards who had initially planned to take advantage of the situation felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave after being scanned by Lester's wolf-like gaze. They immediately realized that Lester was not someone to be trifled with, so after contributing about 400 Fear Points to Lester, they scattered like birds and beasts and left the place.

Only Philip remained, looking at Lester with a pleading expression.

"Get lost, don't let me see you in Knockturn Alley!" Lester waved his hand helplessly, signaling that the coward Philip could leave.

He thought everyone in the Knockturn Alley was a tough and ruthless person, but he didn't expect that the guy would back down before he even made a move.

"Thank you, thank you!" Having received Lester's approval, Philip felt as if he had been granted a pardon and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Lester suddenly called out to Philip, who was about to leave.

Philip immediately stood still, his body drenched in cold sweat, fearing that Lester might change his mind.

"Take the money off the ground and leave!" Lester said to Philip in a somewhat annoyed tone.

Although he's now wearing Quirrell's face, he's here to cause trouble for Quirrell, not to rob him.

Even if it were robbery, would he bother robbing a mere 10 Galleon? Perhaps to others it would be a fortune, but to Lester, that amount of money is nothing.

Somewhat disappointed, Lester did not give up and continued to look for a suitable target in the neighborhood near the Madman Bar.

"First of all, this person must look like someone you don't want to mess with, preferably with a very bad temper. It would be even better if they were from a dark wizarding family."

This time, Lester learned his lesson and decided to find a formidable dark wizard to provoke.

Unfortunately, Lester overestimated the courage of those dark wizards. Or rather, these dark wizards who came from the streets were usually Blackie ones, so they didn't want to bother with him, preferring to avoid trouble.

Lester spent over an hour on this, but aside from gaining 1000 points of Fear Points, he had no other gains, and he had absolutely no clue about making Quirrell an enemy.

Just as Lester was feeling disappointed and preparing to return to the Guild, trouble struck.

In a dark alley, a Muggle-born dressed in tattered clothes was crying with a wronged expression. Judging from his build and appearance, he was probably a young wizard who had just graduated from Hogwarts.

Beside him were several black-robed sorcerers. Judging from their appearance and expressions, these sorcerers were not benevolent; they were likely henchmen of some Pure-blood families.

"Gema Vaughn, you've got some nerve! It's just that I didn't shortchange you a little on your wages, is it really necessary to get so worked up and go to the Ministry of Magic?"

The leader, a burly black wizard, grabbed the Muggle-born by the collar, slammed him against the wall, and threatened him.

"Let me tell you, I know all about you going to Auror to report this. You think you're so clever? Ridiculous!"

With that, the burly black wizard spat on the ground and said coldly, "Today, we brothers will teach you a lesson, consider it your first lesson in entering society. Don't even think about revenge; the Tommy Family is not someone you can afford to mess with."

"You bastard, don't be so naive in the future."

After saying that, the burly wizard kicked the Muggle-born in the stomach again, and his henchmen joined in, giving the Muggle-born a brutal beating.

Under the brutal beating from these dark wizards, Gemma Vaughn couldn't help but shed tears.

However, these were not tears of pain; on the contrary, they were tears of anger and resentment.

The Auror of the Ministry of Magic are in cahoots with these Pure-blood families; the officials of the Ministry of Magic are their protectors!

I worked hard in the merchandise department for three months, working 12 hours a day and doing all the dirty and tiring work for him.

To survive in the Wizarding World, he endured all of this. However, when he received his salary, the Tommy Family only gave him one month's wages, deducting the rest because he hadn't worked diligently.

Having just left Hogwarts and entered society, Gemma Vaughn was somewhat disappointed with the Wizarding World, but he still trusted the Ministry of Magic, the official institution, after all, it was what the professors taught them in class.

As a result, he first went to the Tommy Family to collect the debt, but instead of paying him, they fired him and kicked him out. That was fine, since there was still the Ministry of Ministry of Magic in the Wizarding World, and he could surely get justice by going to the officials of the Ministry of Magic.

He first went to the Labor Department, but unsurprisingly, Labor Department passed the buck and told him to contact the Wizard Commerce Inspection Squad and Wizard Commerce Inspection Squad within the Labor Department. He went to the team, but the address provided was long gone. Vaughn, he had to go to the new address, only to be told that he was a recent graduate, and Vaughn Wizarding and Industrial Inspection Team only cared about wizards with three or more years of experience, not recent graduates.

It was bad enough that he had wasted several days of his time, but he couldn't afford to offend those officials. Just when he was about to admit defeat, his trip to the Ministry of Magic of Ministry of Magic was leaked by the Auror there, which led to the Tommy Family's thugs coming after him.
