Chapter 4170 4172 [Merlin Knight Order First Class Medal]

The next day, Xiang Nan sent a letter to Tobias and Irene, telling them that Voldemort had been defeated and they could return to England with peace of mind.

Tobias and Irene were also very happy when they received the news, and then flew back to England.

In fact, during the two years they have been in Australia, although there are sunshine, beaches and delicious food, they have always been worried about Xiang Nan, afraid that something might happen to him.

However, they wrote repeatedly to ask Xiang Nan to come to Australia for a reunion, but Xiang Nan always refused, and they had no way to enforce his will.

Now that Voldemort has fallen and all the Death Eaters have been captured, they can finally put their worries aside and reunite without worry.

After they returned to England from Australia, they did not return to Cokeworth to settle down.

  Firstly, the house in Cokeworth has been sold, and they will have to buy another house to live in when they return. In this case, it would be better to buy a house in London;

Secondly, Xiang Nan and Lily have already settled in London, and their business in Diagon Alley is also booming, so they will definitely live in London in the future. In this case, why should they return to Cokeworth? They can just stay in London.

Therefore, Xiang Nan helped them buy a house in London, which was only one block away from Xiang Nan's current home. In this way, they could avoid disturbing each other and could go there in time if something happened.

When children grow up, they don't want to live with their parents. This phenomenon is not only found in China, but also very common abroad.

……

During this period, Xiang Nan was awarded the First Class Medal of the Order of Merlin for his contribution in destroying Voldemort and capturing a group of Death Eaters.

He thus became the youngest wizard to receive a medal of this level, which is the highest honor in the wizarding world.

At the same time, the Wizengamot Society, representing the highest authority of the Ministry of Magic, also sincerely invited him to join.

The Wizengamot is the equivalent of the Court of Justice and Parliament in the wizarding world. It has about fifty members, most of whom are pure-blood wizards.

Even the Minister of Magic has no power to change what they decide, so their authority is above that of the Minister.

It is precisely because of this that wizards from pure-blood families have been able to control most of the power in the wizarding world.

But this time, Voldemort's downfall and the arrest of the Death Eaters put them in a very passive situation.

Because many Death Eaters or their families are members of the Wizengamot, such as Rodolphus Lestrange, Henry Selwyn, Inez Craw (father of the Craw brothers and sisters), Randall Nott (grandfather of Leo Nott)...

Now that they or their family members have been arrested as Death Eaters, they are naturally unable to serve as members of the Wizengamot, so they are forced to resign.

Xiang Nan had just won the highest honor in the wizarding world by killing Voldemort, so he received an invitation from the Wizengamot Wizarding Society at a young age and became one of its members.

He is also the youngest one.

If he is determined to pursue a career in politics, it would not be surprising if he took over as Minister of Magic in ten years or so, given his reputation in the wizarding world.

However, Xiang Nan has never been interested in a career in politics.

In the following time, he mainly studied the books in the goblin treasury, and also studied the secrets of Hufflepuff's gold cup and Ravenclaw's crown.

Hufflepuff's golden cup can break Gamp's law of transfiguration and create delicious food out of thin air. It is a very remarkable holy device. If you can study it thoroughly, you will never suffer from hunger again.

The crown of Ravenclaw can enhance the wisdom of the wearer. But knowledge is not power, wisdom is power.

Knowing a lot is nothing. Kong Yiji knew the four ways to write the word "卉", but he still had his legs broken. Only by applying what you know and learn can you be truly wise and exert your strength.

If used properly, even a mouse can conquer an elephant.

So Xiang Nan has been researching and trying to find a way to replicate these two holy objects. …

During this time, Barty Crouch Jr. successfully graduated from Hogwarts.

With Xiang Nan's help, he did not follow Voldemort to become a Death Eater, but instead worked hard to fight Voldemort.

In the Dragon Power Shop, many magic items, anti-curse equipment, potions, etc., are the result of his ingenuity.

After graduation, he originally wanted to work for Dragon Power, but later at the request of Barty Crouch Sr., he decided to work for the Ministry of Magic.

Xiang Nan didn't mind. "It's also good to work in the Ministry of Magic. Being an Auror is also very impressive. Or if you really can't stand the bureaucracy of the Ministry of Magic, you can start your own business. You are so capable, anything is easy for you."

"Thank you, Sif, I knew you understood me." Little Batty said gratefully.

During this period, Regulus Black was also captured by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic.

It turned out that he was a Death Eater, and was exposed by Igor Karkaroff, and then Regulus Black was arrested.

This left her mother, Walburga Black, heartbroken.

The eldest son, Sirius Black, has betrayed the family, and now she only has the youngest son left.

If this little son was also sent to Azkaban prison, her life would be meaningless.

Therefore, in order to save her son, she did not hesitate to distribute her family wealth and beg every relative and friend of the Black family, hoping that they would lend a hand and spare her son's life.

Of course it was all in vain.

Because Voldemort and the Death Eaters have done so many wrong things over the years, and have become hated by both humans and gods, no one is willing to risk the world's condemnation and risk their own reputation to save a Death Eater.

However, when interrogating Regulus Black, Xiang Nan suddenly said, "Regulus, take out the locket in your arms."

Regulus was stunned for a moment, then took out the fake Slytherin locket from his arms.

Everyone looked at Xiang Nan in confusion, not understanding what he was doing.

"Regulus, can you tell me where you got this locket?" Xiang Nan asked.

"..." Regulus remained silent.

He found this locket in Voldemort's cave.

Although he knew that Voldemort was killed, he did not know that Voldemort's Horcrux had been destroyed. Therefore, in his opinion, Voldemort was not dead yet and might come back.

Therefore, he resolutely brought the house-elf Kreacher to the island in the middle of the lake, ready to take Voldemort's Horcrux and destroy it.

As a result, when he drank the liquid in the stone basin with the determination to die, nothing happened to him and he easily got the locket.

But he later discovered that the locket was actually a fake, and he destroyed it easily.

Only then did he realize that Voldemort's Horcruxes had been replaced and destroyed long ago, so everything he had done was in vain.

In this case, he did not dare to take credit for it, thinking that he had helped to get rid of Voldemort, so naturally he had no face to plead for mercy.
