Chapter 550： Drink poison to quench thirst

In the conference hall of the Ministry of Magic, the head of the Auror Office, the Director of the Magical Law Enforcement Department, the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters, and the top officials of several major departments of the Ministry of Magic gathered together.

Like any high-level leadership meeting of a large organization or country, the atmosphere in the conference hall at this time is serious, and even a little too serious.

Because everyone present was frowning, as if tomorrow was the end of the world.

Of course, tomorrow naturally cannot be the end of the world, but for these officials, the next day is not much different from the end of the world.

The reason for all of this was the official instructions issued by Minister Flint regarding the next work of the Ministry of Magic.

Yes, the paper version of the order is now placed on the desktop of the conference room for everyone to read. The text on it has been edited by the female assistant to form an official document with beautiful language and standard format, but Everyone can still read the harsh murderous aura from every word above!

‘It’s all over to you! If you don't do it well, die! ’

That's what their Minister Flint meant!

"Huh!" Robert, who was the director of the Auror's office at the time, sighed long, "Let's talk about it, Mr. Minister, what does he want to do."

"I believe you know this in your heart, Robert." said Cage, who was then the Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures. "Obviously, Mr. Minister has had enough of you. We, as officials employed by the Ministry of Magic, The most fundamental duty is to help Mr. Minister to manage this country. But what have you done? You will only act as a sound transmission machine to gather the news to Mr. Minister, and then Mr. Minister makes decisions. This is undoubtedly a big deal. The increase in the workload of Mr. Minister also proves your incompetence."

After saying that, Cage smiled slightly and leaned on the back of the chair comfortably with his legs up.

This time the document issued by Chris has almost zero impact on him, the director of the Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures, because all things under the jurisdiction of the Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures have been handled by them, not at all. Need to consult the Minister of Magic.

This was a bad thing in the past, because it made the Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures one of the busiest departments in the entire Ministry of Magic.

But now it seems that this has turned out to be a good thing.

It is said that the top officials of several other departments are all black-faced. The directors of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and the Department of International Magic Cooperation are better. After all, they usually have a lot of work to go. Ask Mr. Minister, but these are small matters, and they are not incapable of solving them by themselves.

Therefore, the impact of this paper on them is not great, it is just that the good days of leisure in the future will no longer exist.

And the expression of the chief of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters was really black as a pot at the moment.

You should know that there is still a critical incident of minority rebellion before him. You can know it with your heels. If he handles this matter slightly, the feedback caused by this matter will make him ahead of time. Go to see Merlin.

As for Secretary Flint, will he be freed from their hard work?

This is basically impossible, because Secretary Flint has always been such a person who keeps his promises.

If you want to die at three o'clock, it is impossible to keep you until five o'clock!

The director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters looked solemn, but in the end it was the former who spoke first and said to everyone:

"You can't stand by. We are all members of the Ministry of Magic. If there is a mistake in our work, it will damage the reputation of the entire Ministry of Magic!"

The voice of the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters was decisive, but apparently the other officials in the conference room did not buy it.

In this case, you still want them to protect the reputation of the Ministry of Magic?

Isn't this a joke?

It's pretty good that they can keep their black hats and lives!

Looking at the indifferent people, the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters could only look at Robert for help. This was already his last hope.

Because theoretically speaking, the Auror office has the responsibility and obligation to assist them in solving this matter. They are actually grasshoppers on a rope.

But Robert, the director of the Auror office, thought otherwise.

Knowing that he was Minister Flint's direct line, he didn't believe that Minister Flint would put him to death because of this little ties.

Thinking like this, he frowned:

"Mr. Secretary, I understand your feelings very well. Don't worry, if there is any need for our Auror office, please open your mouth and we will definitely do our best."

Now the expression of the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters became even more ugly, because Robert's meaning was already obvious.

The identity of our Auror office in this matter is an auxiliary department to assist you, and you have to fight against the culprit.

The Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters was naturally unwilling, so a fierce debate began.

This debate continued from evening to midnight, but it still did not change anything. In the face of such a big trouble, no one was willing to participate.

In the end, the officials yawned and hurriedly left the meeting room, while the director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters sat slumped on the office chair with a gray face.

Kingsley looked at the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters, which seemed to have confessed his fate, with a serious expression on his face.

As an undercover agent of the Order of the Phoenix in the Ministry of Magic, he did not participate in the last plan to rescue Mike, so although he has been demoted due to identity issues, he still holds the second-in-command position of the Magic Law Enforcement Department.

This is why he can appear here.

"Mr. Secretary, what are you going to do?"

Kingsley was cautiously tentative. As an undercover, he was obliged to obtain this information in advance.

Hearing that, the director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters smiled bitterly:

"How to do it? What else to do? Give in, and they will give whatever they want. They can drag on for a day!"

After that, the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters shook his head, got up and dragged his weight and walked out of the conference room.

Kingsley frowned and fell into thought.

As an old fried dough stick who has been ups and downs in the Huanhai for decades, he knows very well that this is a plan to quench thirst by drinking poison, and doing so will only make things more difficult to solve.

Facts have proved that Kingsley's conjecture is correct.

On the second day after the meeting, the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters approached representatives of various groups such as horsemen, witches, fairies, and merfolk, seeking a solution to the situation.

In order to eliminate the current turbulent situation in society, the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters signed a series of unequal contracts under the surprise gaze of many representatives, which met some of the requirements of the minority groups that at least seemed more reliable.

For example, granting horsemen, merfolk and other intelligent creatures the right to establish autonomous regions, granting Muggle wizards a certain number of Ministry positions, granting greater rights to witches currently serving in the Ministry, and reducing the Ministry of Magic’s protection against Guru The tax.

I have to say that this is a happy situation for everyone.

Minorities took the benefits and left happily, and although the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters paid a great price, at least the crowds on the street also disappeared, which is not a loss.

But human beings have always been insatiable, especially when you are too enthusiastic, they won't stop if they don't squeeze the last trace of your benefits.

Of course, the above qualities are unique to humans and fairies.

The mermaids and horses are actually very satisfied with the current situation and are not ready to ask for more things.

But under the coercion of wizards and fairies, they had to participate.

As a result, just a week after the settlement agreement was signed, demonstrations by various groups reappeared.

Regarding this, although the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters was angry, for their own lives, they interviewed the last group of people again.

And this time the benefits of the magic accident and disaster department ceding out even greater.

The Ministry of Magic, the powerful statue in the Hall of the Ministry of Magic has disappeared, replaced by a group of statues, in which witches, Muggles, horsemen, merfolk and other races co-exist harmoniously, but the wizards have disappeared. Silhouette.

The shackles that have been imprisoned on these minority groups for thousands of years have all disappeared. They have suddenly become human masters from the bottom of society, and can despise those pure-blood wizards. These minorities began to make money while avenging the pure-blood wizards through crimes, regardless of whether it was the Auror or the striker, they began to turn a blind eye to these crimes under the command of the chief.

As for the witches, the most profitable in this struggle.

Their abilities are extraordinary. In this situation, they even pried the top pure-blood family's blockade of the upper-level officials of the Ministry of Magic, leading many witches to become senior officials of the Ministry of Magic and even Senator Wisengamo.

After paying so much, the wizarding world of Qiguo finally calmed down.

But the mood of the Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters did not improve at all, because he knew very well that the current peace was only temporary, and those greedy guys would ask him for more things.

Granting too many privileges to these guys will also provoke dissatisfaction from the inherent classes. In the end, he was either driven to death by those minority groups because of giving him nothing, or because he lost the inherent classes. Too much profit and was quietly dealt with by Mimi!

For a while, the director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters was a little desperate.

At the same time, within Hogwarts, Filch was standing on a wooden box, struggling to stick a piece of parchment paper on the sign in the hall.

I saw it clearly read:

"Notice on Appointment of Principal of Hogwarts

All teachers and students, all staff

According to the work needs of Hogwarts, following the relevant traditions of Hogwarts principal selection, and following the requirements of the Ministry of Magic, after a series of procedures, the Ministry of Magic decided to appoint the current Minister of Magic-Christopher Lint is the principal of Hogwarts.

Hereby appointed.

The Ministry of Magic. "

Looking at the parchment that he had put up in the center of the sign, Filch smiled with satisfaction.

It’s not the first time that the Ministry of Magic airborne the principal or the professor came down. Umuritch, who was sent down last time, gave him some bad experiences, but overall, Umuritch The days in power were quite comfortable, at least there were fewer mischievous students back then.

After rubbing his hands, Filch is already considering how to please the new principal. As long as he can get acquainted with the new principal, then he has the opportunity to propose to him to step up indoctrination to the students. In this way, His usual work can save a lot of effort.

‘Merlin bless! The new principal Flint must be a hardliner! ’

Filch was looking forward to it from the bottom of his heart.

At the same time, the students in the auditorium also found the notice in the hall, and gradually gathered.

And when they saw the contents of the notice, the crowd suddenly exploded.

"Harry, the Chris Flint mentioned above, isn't it the one I think?"

Ron spoke in disbelief, but Harry nodded with a dull face when he heard that:

"If there is only one Minister of Magic, then he should be right."

"Oh! Merlin's beard! Now we're all going to die!"

Ron covered his face and wailed in despair.

You know they, Hogwarts students, have just made a fuss with the Ministry of Magic! Now the Minister of Magic is coming to Hogwarts to be their principal!

Ron instinctively thought that this might be Chris' conspiracy!

The other party must want to retaliate against them through the identity of Headmaster Hogwarts!

Among the crowd, there are many people who behave similarly to Ron. Although they don’t have the stupid idea that Chris, as Minister of Magic, would come to Hogwarts as the principal in order to retaliate against them, they are also not. Satisfied with this decision.

After all, the rescue of Mike has just passed, and most of them still think that the Ministry of Magic is their enemy!

As for the Slytherins, they were very happy.

See you in my pity Ever since Chris left Hogwarts, they have been suppressed by Mike's line. In the recent period, they were even beaten up except for classes and usually didn't even dare to leave the dormitory. !

Now that Chris is back, he is still returning with such honorable identities as the Minister of Magic and Headmaster Hogwarts. He wants to know that their good days are finally coming!

Of course, after a series of blows, they also learned well.

He didn't arrogantly celebrate in a public place like the auditorium, but covered his mouth and rushed back to his lounge with a smile.

Presumably, there will be a special banquet in the Slytherin Lounge tonight.

Looking at the notice and the noisy crowd around, Hermione gritted her teeth and said to Harry and Ron:

"No! We have to go to Professor McGonagall and ask!"
