Percy and Ron's Secrets
Watching his youngest daughter's retreating figure, Arthur sighed inwardly.
He wasn't against Ginny liking Bell. As long as his daughter was happy, he would support her whether it was Harry or Bell.
The problem is, if he remembers correctly, he did see Bell's girlfriend in the Headmaster's Office at Hogwarts.
Doesn't that mean his Ginny became the other woman?!
"Sigh! Children and grandchildren have their own lives to live; let Ginny make her own decision."
After thinking it over, Arthur decided not to get involved in his daughter's love life. His only hope now was that Ginny wouldn't be hurt too badly in the future.
"Quick, Ginny, thank your Bell Senior. If you have the chance in the future, you can talk to Bell more."
Arthur gently nudged his daughter's back again and urged her softly.
"That's all Dad can do for you."
Oblivious to her father's outrageous ideas, Ginny, urged repeatedly by him, finally gritted her teeth, took a few steps forward, and bowed to Bell.
"Bell Senior, thank you so much for saving me!"
"You really don't need to do that, I really didn't do anything."
Bell hurriedly waved his hand. He truly felt unworthy of Ginny's thanks.
And he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but ever since then he'd felt that Arthur's gaze was a little strange.
"Bell, are you all alone? Where are your parents?"
Arthur looked at Bell, who was all alone, and asked curiously.
"They still have some things to do and won't arrive until before the game starts in the evening."
"Oh, I see. Then you should remind your parents not to be late for the competition."
Our Britain Quidditch team hasn't reached the final in a long time. And I think the Ireland National Team has a very good chance of winning this time.
The mere mention of Quidditch transforms Arthur's entire demeanor; he seems to glow.
"Okay, I will..."
Bell smiled, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the vibration in his arms.
"Feel sorry."
Bell gave Arthur an apologetic look.
Arthur immediately waved his hand to indicate that it was alright.
He took out his Personal Terminal and connected the call. Shanna, with messy blonde hair and sleepy eyes, appeared on the screen.
"Gege, where are you?"
"I'm out for a walk. What's wrong?"
Bell, who knew her younger sister well, noticed that something was off about Shanna's voice.
"I had a nightmare."
The little girl pouted and looked at her Gege with a pitiful expression.
"!?"
My younger sister had a nightmare!?
This is outrageous!
No, he has to go back immediately!
"Wait a moment, Gege 'll be right back."
After saying that, Bell looked at Arthur apologetically again.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Arthur, I have some urgent business to attend to and need to go back immediately."
"It's okay, go ahead. We need to find a place to pitch our tents anyway."
Bell nodded to the Weasley family, then turned and disappeared.
"..."
Staring blankly at the spot where Bell had disappeared, Arthur was momentarily stunned.
Bell just used Side-Along Apparition? If he remembered correctly, Bell was the same age as Ron, right? How could he possibly use Side-Along Apparition?
Moreover, Arthur felt that Bell's Side-Along Apparition was somewhat different from what he knew.
"Side-Along Apparition! It's Side-Along Apparition! He's only a third-grader; he's not qualified to take the Side-Along Apparition certification exam yet! He's breaking the law!"
The sudden shout from behind startled Arthur.
He turned around and saw Percy gesturing wildly and shouting, his face flushed with excitement.
So why is Percy so agitated?
Arthur remembered the last time he saw Percy this excited was when Percy was elected Student Council President.
"Dad! That brat has broken the Ministry of Ministry of Magic's laws! We should arrest him immediately!"
As a newly appointed Ministry of Magic Staff, Percy believes it is his duty to uphold the Ministry of Magic's sacred laws!
At that moment, Percy's face showed an expression of pilgrimage, and his whole body seemed to be radiating light, just like a fanatical believer.
"Uh, Percy, it's not that big of a deal..."
Looking at his son, who suddenly seemed somewhat unfamiliar, Arthur's face showed a troubled expression.
Ultimately, obtaining the Side-Along Apparition certification is primarily for the safety of the wizard himself.
If the wizard himself doesn't care about his own safety, then of course no one else will care either.
As a veteran of the Ministry of Magic, Arthur had actually seen many people Side-Along Apparition.
After all, there are many reckless wizards, and many find the process of verification troublesome.
As for such matters, the Ministry of Magic has always turned a blind eye as long as they don't cause any disturbances.
Just like the pile of illegally modified Muggle items in his warehouse, it's not a big deal, there's no need to make a fuss about it.
"No!"
Another slightly childish shout startled Arthur once again.
He turned his head and saw his youngest son, Ron, just like Percy before him, waving his arms and legs excitedly, his face flushed.
So what's wrong with his sons today? Could it be that Lucius, that bastard, invented a curse specifically for the Weasley family and secretly cast it on his sons?
That shouldn't be the case! Similar bloodline curses should have been sealed off by the major families hundreds of years ago.
After all, there are only a few Pure-blood Family. After hundreds or thousands of years of development, the ancestors of each family are basically connected to each other to some extent.
Therefore, bloodline curses are simply harmful to both oneself and others. Arthur didn't believe that Lucius would dare to defy the world and research such a deadly thing.
"We cannot tolerate such an outlaw continuing to run rampant! He must be punished! He must be imprisoned in Azkaban!"
Ron was so excited his freckles practically bled. He'd finally caught Bell red-handed, and he absolutely wasn't going to let him get away with it so easily!
Ignoring Percy and Ron, who were holding hands and looked like they had finally met their family (in fact, they were family), Arthur turned his attention to the twins, George and Fred.
"So what happened to those two? Did they have a conflict with Bell at school?"
When faced with their father's question, George and Fred exchanged a glance and revealed a mischievous smile.
"Percy's girlfriend,"
"Working for Bell."
"The relationship between the two,"
"Very close."
"So Percy always felt that..."
"I'm being cuckolded."
"Ron's Scabbers were killed by Bell."
"But he doesn't really care."
"Still using the death of Scabbers?"
"They extorted a brand new Personal Terminal."
"Only,"
"He seems to..."
"He's interested in Bell's girlfriend!" *2
"Oh, poor little Ron, he chose an opponent he can't possibly defeat, how... stupid! Hahaha~!" *2
George and Fred, working in tandem as if performing a play, revealed Percy and Ron's secret.
