Ambitions

"You...you really bet on it?" George Weasley swallowed, "That's 25 galleons... what if..."

He never dared to say the words that he guessed wrong, for fear that it would become true.

"I believe in my luck and intuition." Albert said calmly. "You should try it. If you get it right, you can make a fortune."

"We don't have any money." The twins shook their heads after looking at each other. The Weasleys were relatively poor, and even if the twins had some savings, they wouldn't waste it on guessing.

"Don't look at me, I want to save some money for other things." Lee shook his head repeatedly. He also thought that Albert's approach was crazy, and if he really had the money, he would never use it like this.

During the conversation among the four, the train had left London and was speeding along the meadows and fields.

Albert flipped through the newspaper and listened to the trio chatting about Quidditch. In this regard, he couldn't talk about it at all. Even if he knew the rules, he had to pretend he didn't know.

After all, Albert came from the Muggle world, and it was logically impossible to know these things about Quidditch.

"By the way, have you heard about Gabriel Truman?" George suddenly mentioned the matter a while ago.

"Natley was almost fired by the Ministry of Magic," Fred whispered, "Later, he went to apologize to Gabriel Truman in person, and the matter was over."

"I also heard. But my mother said Rita Skeeter's articles are not credible." Lee said, "That woman likes to exaggerate facts."

"Most newspapers are like this, but the content always needs to have two points of truth." Albert closed the newspaper and said. As one of the culprits of all this, he naturally knew what had happened.

"I've been to Truman's compartment before and heard him talk to others about it, saying that he met a Hogwarts freshman practicing magic during the summer vacation, and then he received a letter inexplicably saying that it was expelled." Fred said suddenly. "At that time, Dumbledore and a Ministry of Magic staff came to the door. The Ministry of Magic had a very bad attitude and didn't even give an apology, so he just..."

Albert raised his eyebrows when he heard that, he could only say that Truman was too excited and loose-lipped. He reminded Truman to keep it a secret. Obviously, he had forgotten those words.

Albert was a reincarnated person after all. He didn't want any of the attention and publicity.

"By the way, do you know how the school is divided?" Albert changed the subject.

"I don't know, my family won't tell me." Lee shook his head and said.

"Percy said it would go through a kind of test." George said a little annoyed. "They always don't want to tell us because they think it would be a suprise."

"How is life as a wizard? Is it interesting?"

Albert thought for a while and said, "At first, when I received the letter, we were very surprised. My mother didn't even welcome Professor McGonagall. She was worried I wouldn't find a job after graduation."

"That's not true, my two brothers have graduated." The twins said in unison.

"Bill works at Gringotts in Africa."

"Charlie studies dragons in Romania."

"Where is your father?" Albert asked knowingly.

"He works at the Ministry of Magic." The twins looked at each other and said in unison.

"I think I will stay in the Muggle world after I graduate."

"Why?" the three asked in a puzzled way, in their opinion this was unimaginable.

"I came to Hogwarts mainly to learn magic and how to use it. Professor McGonagall said that if I don't learn magic, I might lose control of magic in the future."

But in the Muggle world, we can't use magic at will, and we can't let Muggles know the existence of magic, otherwise we will cause trouble for ourselves."

"By the way, what do you want to do in the future?"

"I don't want to work in the Ministry of Magic."

"Me too." The twins looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

"It's good to be a Quidditch player. Charlie is the Quidditch captain. I think I fly well, but unfortunately I have to be a second year to join the Quidditch team." George said regretfully.

"I didn't think about it." Lee said.

"How about you?" The three of them all looked at Albert.

"Me? I will find a job that is simple, easy and makes money."

"Really? Is there such a job?" The three couldn't help but look at each other again. If there was such a job, they would want it too!

"It should be, I'm looking for it." Albert said with a smile. He was curious when the twins gave birth to the idea of

a joke shop.

"If you find it, remember to tell me." Lee patted Albert on the shoulder seriously and couldn't help laughing.

"Do you mind if I take a picture of you." Albert took out the camera and said.

"Picture?"

"Yeah, my family wants to learn about the magic world." Albert asked the three of them to sit together and raised the camera to take a few pictures of them.

"Why won't the photo move?" Lee raised his hand and poked the photo, probably wanting them to move.

"Muggle pictures don't move." Albert explained, taking the picture and looking at it, and he was quite satisfied with it, "It seems that my technique has improved a bit."

"What's the meaning of photos that don't move." The three quickly lost interest in photos.

As it approached noon, there was a noise from the aisle of the train.

For a moment, a witch opened the compartment door and asked, "My dear, do you want to buy some food?"

"I want Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans." Lee said, he had his own food. The twins also brought sandwiches, but they didn't have much money, so they bought nothing.

"Give me some of all the food." Albert said to the gracious witch.

Just seeing Albert's gambling, the three of them felt numb to his lavish spending.

For this, Albert paid a Galleon and bought a bunch of things on the table.

"I dare say, your family must be rich." Lee muttered.

"We are not very rich." Albert opened the Every Flavor Beans and ate one, which tasted like bean sprouts. "They are all lawyers."

"What is that?" The three of them didn't understand Muggles.

"The person who litigates for others, you also think they are the ones who legally exploited the loopholes in the law." Albert thought for a while and said.

"Loop hole in the law." After the three listened, they were a little bit confused. What does it mean to drill a hole in the law legally?

What kind of bull was this?

"Help me by introducing what kind of food these are." Albert made a gesture. He didn't want to eat something inexplicable, the wizards' taste was a little strange. Moreover, this is regarded as an opportunity, for things like friendship.
