The People Storm Capitol Hill!

As part of daily patrols, the Prefect's tasks are simple and monotonous:

To regulate student behavior, prevent disorderly conduct, and stop fighting, brawling, and pranks.

The Prefect also has the power to deduct points, which can deter students to some extent.

However, an embarrassing situation arose when the students played a prank, using items from Akali's Mystery Shop.

Thanks to the hardcore GG of last year's Quidditch World Cup, Akali's Mystery Shop has made her a household name all over the world.

They waged a price war with extremely low prices for a long time, and managed to monopolize 80% of the United Kingdom market.

After a monopoly is established, naturally... internal employees "voluntarily" work overtime, external prices are "slightly" increased, and subordinates are "gently" exploited.

It's something only humans would do; it has absolutely nothing to do with that.

In addition to William's celebrity effect, any Hogwarts student who buys prank products will end up with Akali's.

While Hogwarts allows shops to sell things, many prank items are on the prohibited list.

Akali's products are definitely included here.

So here's the question.

William, Hermione, and Cho are Prefect, and Cedric is even the student council president... If you see someone using your company's products, should you confiscate them or not?

If we don't accept it... the school rules are there.

Although we ourselves also went out at night and violated school rules, we weren't caught.

There are countless school rules, but the first one is to avoid being caught... If you can do this, you can do whatever you want.

Since we've been discovered, we can only accept our bad luck.

But if we confiscate it... we're afraid it will affect our business and offend our customers.

Students are the core group and the main force of consumption in the coming decades.

Akali's Mystery Shop's basic route is:

We must come from the students, go back to the students, maintain close ties with the students, and never become detached from the student body.

After all, their money is the easiest to swindle.

Wait a minute... Akali has monopolized the market. Even though the students complain, they still have to obediently buy their items from the store after they've been confiscated, right?

It's like Tencent has been criticized for so many years, but when it came time to buy skins, they didn't hesitate to spend money, did they?

This process of buying and selling also inadvertently stimulated domestic demand and boosted consumption!

This is a good thing!

Therefore, people need to be more flexible in their thinking.

As long as you don't lose your mindset, you'll always sell more than you buy.

Having figured this out, William immediately stopped worrying and followed Hermione around confiscating prohibited prank products.

"I'm talking to you! Stuffing Dungbomb into your safety shorts, are you hiding grenades in your crotch?!" William quickly grabbed the two students.

"Get it out for me now!"

But when he got closer, he realized that the two students wearing Rita dresses, holding hands, and preparing to go to the toilet together were actually two boys.

Shocking... Nan Tong was right next to me!

But seeing that he was Hufflepuff student, it wasn't surprising.

Just as the two were about to obediently pull out the Dungbomb, William quickly waved his hand, telling them to get lost.

William, though disgusted, had to admit that the two of them were really going all out, from dressing up in women's clothes to using the toilet, and even bringing small toys...

Soon after, he caught two witches playing with frisbees in the train corridor.

"The Fanged Frisbee is a contraband; hand it over immediately." William once again adopted his Prefect.

"I just bought this from Akali's Mystery Shop... I haven't even had a chance to use it yet."

The second-grade witch clasped her hands together and pleaded, looking utterly pitiful.

"Stark, I'm your fan. I grew up listening to your stories."

Just give it back to us, and we'll do anything you ask!

"Fans again, "William thought, now whenever he heard the word, he felt like the other party was about to betray him.

He shook his head and said:

"School rules are school rules, there's nothing I can do about it!"

William, as usual, shifted the blame:

"Blame Professor Snape! He's the one who set such strict rules! He just wrote to me saying they must be strictly enforced."

"But..."

"Here, this is a 5 Galleon coupon for Starbrusher Starfleeting Broomstick. You can get it for 5 Galleon!" William pulled out a coupon.

"This UFO only cost one Galleon. Even though I confiscated it from you, don't you feel like you made a profit of four Galleon?"

The little witch accepted it hesitantly, saying that... but she always felt that something was wrong.

Wait a minute... Starbrusher are more expensive than Firebolt, is it really that she's short of five Galleon?!

What's the difference between this and Rolls-Royce five-yuan coupon?

William wandered around aimlessly for a while longer, and his bad reputation quickly spread.

Surprisingly, Astoria came to visit.

This little girl often hands out flyers, deliberately smearing William and urging everyone not to buy Akali products so he'll go bankrupt.

How dare you come looking for him?

However, William was stunned when he heard Astoria's request.

She reported her sister Daphne for bringing in a large quantity of contraband prank products, prompting William to seize them.

Holy crap... is this her own sister?

Your sister only lent you some pocket money to buy Akali items, and you're reporting her?

William not only ignored her, but also gave Daphne a 10% discount coupon, which made the girl so angry that she wanted to report him for favoritism.

So... William deducted two points from Slytherin's score.

This is how you deal with haters!

After wandering around for a while, Hermione rushed over, clutching a letter in her hand.

She said anxiously, "Something's happened."

"What's wrong?" William asked.

"Tonks wrote that..." Hermione whispered, "Sturgis Podmore has been arrested by the Ministry of Magic."

"Sturgis has been arrested?" William frowned.

This man was a member of the Order of the Phoenix; William had seen him several times during meetings.

"I remember he was on a mission today, with Mad-Eye, acting as Harry's bodyguard."

"Tonks said Sturgis didn't show up this morning," Hermione said worriedly.

"Then Kingsley from the Ministry of Magic reported that he had been arrested last night for attempting to illegally enter the Department of Mysteries."

"The Department of Mysteries?" William paused, taken aback. "What's he doing there?"

"Could this be an order from the Order of the Order of the Phoenix?" Hermione asked, puzzled.

"No, there was no such order." William shook his head.

He had a high degree of information control within the Order of the Phoenix; he knew about almost all the missions.

Dumbledore could not possibly send Sturgis to the Department of Mysteries.

After a moment's thought, William asked again, "Has anyone gone to negotiate?"

Forcibly entering the Ministry of Magic is no small matter; it could land you in Azkaban, where you might end up on vacation with Umbridge.

"It's going to be difficult to negotiate now; Fudge seems to know Sturgis's identity," Hermione sighed.

He claimed that Sturgis led a hundred men to invade the Ministry of Magic and seized the podium, constituting a riot.

William was speechless. Was Fudge already throwing around accusations?

Listen to this... still a hundred people.

If you didn't know better, you'd think it was a world-famous painting.

The January Revolutions saw the people storm the United States Congress!
