The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 1176: 1 is over

British Ministry of Magic, in a high-rise meeting room.

Minister Scrimgeour frowned, listening to Kingsley's recent report from the Director of the Crisis Response Team. The actions of the Death Eaters and their minions to make trouble in the UK have seriously affected the normal operation of the Ministry of Magic.

A large number of wizards were sent to deal with the mess left by the dark wizards, which caused the Ministry of Magic to be stretched, and everyone was physically and mentally exhausted by a lot of work and overtime.

Even if Scrimgeour generously provided an overtime allowance, it still could not solve everyone's overtime exhaustion. Some departments have even worked hard overtime for two consecutive weeks.

"This is the conspiracy of the Death Eaters, they are forcing us to spend a lot of energy on solving the problem." After listening to Kingsley's report, Scrimgeour looked around the other Ministry of Magic executives in the conference room. " As for why, I think everyone should have guessed, they want us to show our flaws so that we can better penetrate the Ministry of Magic."

"They are succeeding." Gardwin Robards said with a tired face, and said helplessly: "Everyone is very tired at this time, and I am worried that the Death Eaters have quietly controlled some of the employees of the Ministry of Magic. ."

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly froze. Everyone was very worried about this matter, and worried that their family members would be threatened. Even though Scrimgeour had been very guarded against the infiltration of the Ministry of Magic by the Death Eaters since he came to power, he was still there. Several had to admit that there were still occasional employees at the Ministry being held by Death Eaters, or family members threatened with their lives.

"What happened to that protection plan?" Scrimgeour asked his assistant sideways.

"It's progressing steadily. I'm afraid it won't be completed until after Christmas this year at the earliest." Percy opened the folder in his hand, took a document from it and handed it to Scrimgeour.

"Protection plan?"

Everyone looked at Minister Scrimgeour inquiringly, eager to find out what kind of plan this was.

"This secret must be kept secret for now!"

Scrimgeour handed the document to the head of the Auror office next to him, "On a voluntary basis, I will ask Dumbledore to act as a secrecy when that time comes."

"This…"

After everyone saw the so-called protection plan, Qi Qi looked at Scrimgeour, surprised that the Minister planned to do this.

"This is the worst plan, but we have to admit that it is necessary. No one wants their family members to be threatened. The families of Aurors and members of the crisis response team will have priority."

"One day I died in the line of duty. The Ministry of Magic is under the control of the Death Eaters, and it can also be a safe house to avoid the pursuit of the Death Eaters." Minister Scrimgeour's tone was very calm, and he did not shy away from talking about his own life. die.

Everyone looked at each other, and they had to admit that Scrimgeour was definitely the toughest and most ruthless minister ever.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the conference room, and the dignified atmosphere inside was shattered by this knock on the door.

Everyone exchanged glances and picked up their wands.

Percy Weasley, with Scrimgeour's permission, walked over to open the door.

A young employee stood outside the conference room with a letter, presumably noticing that everyone was staring at him, and suddenly became a little restless.

"What's the matter?"

Percy shifted, blocking everyone's eyes, looking at the somewhat stunned young employee.

"Sorry, an urgent notice from the International Confederation of Wizards."

After the wizard regained his senses, he quickly handed over the letter in his hand.

He also knew that he should not be disturbed at this time, but some extremely urgent matters need to be handled by the director.

"give it to me!"

Percy reached out to take the letter, closed the door of the conference room again, and handed the urgent letter from the International Confederation of Wizards to Lufkin, Director of the Department of International Magical Cooperation at the British Ministry of Magic.

"The International Confederation of Wizards sternly accuses and warns wizards in the UK that they have violated the International Statute of Secrecy, putting the wizarding community at risk of exposure to Muggles." Lufkin handed the letter to Scrimgeour, mocking himself, " They actually asked us to participate in the urgent meeting of the International Wizarding Federation in the afternoon and asked us to make a reasonable explanation."

"A reasonable explanation?"

After Scrimgeour read the contents of the written notice, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Why didn't they say that the influx of dark wizards from other countries into the UK caused the current chaos."

Gray area wizards living in England alone cannot support the current chaos.

Don't forget, there have been several waves of black wizards ahead of them who have either been executed or imprisoned in Azkaban prison after being attacked by the Ministry of Magic.

"This time, I went to Paris to explain to them myself. Gadwin, give me an updated report, I think it is useless to let them accuse, protest, warn, maybe they should send Aurors to help solve it. The risk that the wizarding world may be exposed!" Scrimgeour's tone was full of yin and yang.

No way, since that idiot Fudge caused Dumbledore to lose the position of President of the International Confederation of Wizards, the status of the British Ministry of Magic in the International Confederation of Wizards has dropped rapidly, and the relationship between the two sides has become worse than before.

When the mysterious man ravaged the United Kingdom, the International Federation of Wizards not only did not send Aurors to help, but instead stayed on the sidelines and blamed the British Ministry of Magic for their mistakes.

The last wizarding war was like this, and the former minister Milison Bagno also had a bad time with the International Confederation of Wizards because they accused the British wizards of violating the International Statute of Secrecy by celebrating their victory.

"Will it be successful?" Lufkin asked worriedly: "Otherwise, I'll go."

"No, it's very necessary for me to go there in person. The matter has to be resolved. If the dark wizards continue to make trouble, the Ministry of Magic will definitely be unable to hold on." Scrimgeour recalled his conversation with Albert a few days ago, and firmly Said: "This matter may require you to continue to follow up."

"I see." Lufkin sighed softly.

"Let's end the meeting, I need to prepare some documents first."

"Rufus, how sure are you."

After the meeting, Lufkin stayed behind to discuss the matter with Scrimgeour. He knew of the minister's plan to seek help from the International Confederation of Wizards, but he felt that the success rate of the plan was not high.

In order to make the minister unreasonably accused in the past, it would be better for him, the director of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department, to play with them in the past.

"We need support, I have no choice." Scrimgeour knew very well that the probability of success was very low, and he believed that no one would interfere with this matter, but after a brief exchange with Albert, he found that this was the only one they had now. Choice, and now the International Federation of Wizards has issued a stern warning, allowing him to see an opportunity.

That afternoon, under the cover of two teams of Ministry of Magic Aurors, Scrimgeour quietly used the Floo network to leave the UK and appeared at the Ministry of Magic in Paris to attend the meeting of the International Confederation of Wizards.

President Babajid Agimbad, who presided over the meeting, was surprised by Scrimgeour's presence in person.

Without giving the members of the International Confederation of Wizards a chance to spray the British Ministry of Magic, Scrimgeour was the first to speak.

"I know the International Confederation of Wizards is very upset about the chaos in the UK, but do you really think it's just an issue with the UK Ministry of Magic?"

"...it will not be easy to convince the International Confederation of Wizards to help."

Scrimgeour did not forget to talk to his special adviser. Although Albert never admitted this position, he had to admit that Albert helped him reduce a lot of trouble, at least more reliable than another special adviser, Fudge. much more.

"From the resurrection of the mysterious man to the present, a large number of dark wizards have been recruited by him, and they have poured into the UK from all over Europe to become the followers of the mysterious man, including those extremely dangerous giants who have appeared in the UK and caused serious damage. While we have also managed to kill a small number of giants, there are indications that there are still large numbers of giants lingering in the UK."

Scrimgeour ignored the words of the other members, continued to press the others with a strong voice, and said to himself: "You can think that Britain is a powder keg... Honestly, can you stop those nutritious things Nonsense, listen to me and finish."

"Minister Scrimgeour, maybe you should calm down, that doesn't suit your gentlemanly demeanor." A member sarcastically sneered.

"If you are like me, working hard for a month in a row, instead of just throwing up those nutritious nonsense, I don't think your temper will be much better than mine." Scrimgeour rudely told everyone present Show what it means to be grumpy.

"How bad is the situation in the UK?"

Babajid Agimbad frowned, realizing that the situation seemed worse than expected.

"I am now very worried that it may explode at any time." Scrimgeour said bluntly about his purpose here, "I think in order to prevent the wizarding world from being completely exposed to Muggles, the International Confederation of Wizards should immediately organize a proud Law went to England to help with the Man-of-You-Know problem, so that the British wizarding world could no longer be exposed to the public."

Everyone present was stunned.

They had intended to severely criticize the British Ministry of Magic, but they were fooled by Scrimgeour's actions.

"What is Dumbledore doing?"

Babajid Agimbad changed the subject, and it was fine for everyone to give a stern warning verbally, but no one wanted to get into the big trouble of the mysterious man.

"Dumbledore can't help it. He has helped the Ministry of Magic fight the dark wizards more than once, but Britain has also paid a heavy price. Right now, the British Ministry of Magic is really powerless to control the situation in Britain." Scrimgeour took it unceremoniously. A document is issued, "I have here a list of the latest dark wizards who have been executed by the Ministry of Magic. There are nearly 200 people in total. The number of dark wizards currently active in the UK is far more than this, and this part of the dark wizards comes from European countries, so you will find that the law and order in your own country has improved, because the swarms of bed bugs have gone to England to follow the mysterious man."

"...they must be made to feel that this is no longer a British problem, but a problem for the entire European wizarding community. They must be made to understand that the United Kingdom is no longer able to handle the current situation if the International Federation of Wizards is not willing to send Auror reinforcements. , and then they have to help clean up the mess. They must understand that the complete exposure of the wizarding world to Muggles is not because of British problems, but the consequences of their ignorance."

Scrimgeour had to admit that such a threat was likely to tarnish the reputation of the British wizarding world, but the current situation was no longer a concern.

Moreover, when Gellert Grindelwald ravaged the world, the British Ministry of Magic finally sent the Aurors to help, and now the second generation of the Dark Lord is raging in the United Kingdom, it is really outrageous that the International Federation of Wizards is sitting idly by.

Scrimgeour looked around the audience with sharp eyes, and threatened unceremoniously: "If the International Federation of Wizards is not willing to send Aurors to England to help catch these bugs, maybe wait for the mysterious person to kill me and completely control the Ministry of Magic, After the situation is completely out of control, you may have to talk to the mysterious person about this at that time."

"This is a shameful threat," someone at the meeting roared in dissatisfaction.

There was an immediate response to those words, and many people denounced Scrimgeour, but the man was indifferent.

"I'm just telling the facts, don't look at me like that, my last British Minister of Magic was murdered by the mysterious man before taking over as the minister. I took over the position of the minister urgently. At present, according to reliable information, the mysterious man He is trying to kill me, and when I die, no one in the whole of England will be able to stop him.

"Isn't there Dumbledore?"

Someone mocked Scrimgeour's self-righteousness.

"I don't think Dumbledore would have watched the British Ministry of Magic come under the control of You-Know-Who."

"Yeah, I actually thought so too."

Scrimgeour's words shattered everyone.

However, before others could react, he continued: "But Dumbledore is only one person, and there are more than fifty vicious incidents happening in the UK every day. Do you know what this concept is? So far, there have been More than a thousand Muggles were slaughtered mercilessly, while the International Confederation of Wizards was indifferent."

"It's a British problem."

"No, it's not a problem with England anymore, it's a problem with the entire wizarding world, because the people who killed them were dark wizards from all over Europe. It's getting out of hand, that's why I'm here today. Ask everyone for help."

"Ask for help?" Many people thought this was ridiculous.

"If you have noticed, you will find that I have sought help from the International Confederation of Wizards since I took office." Scrimgeour threatened unceremoniously: "If the vicious incident continues, the entire British wizarding community will be powerless to cover up. The problem caused by the Death Eaters, it will be a matter of time before the magical world is exposed to the Muggle land. When the UK is completely in chaos, it will be meaningless to warn you and accuse you severely. Those Dark wizards don't pay any attention to you. From the number of Muggles who died in the last wizarding war, it should not be difficult for you to guess their attitude towards Muggles, and don't expect them to help cover up the existence of the wizarding world. In fact, what they did There has been a serious breach of the International Wizarding Secrecy Act."

"We need to discuss this matter with the Ministry of Magic of the various countries." Babajid Agimbad's face twitched slightly, facing the threat of Scrimgeour, they really had nothing to do.

Who made Scrimgeour look like I'm not afraid of death, ready to fight with dark wizards at any time, plus the list of dark wizards who were recently executed by the Ministry of Magic, everyone realized that this person in front of him was no joke.

If the situation in the UK really collapsed, they would have to come out to clean up the mess at that time, and the magical world could not be completely exposed to Muggles.

This really made many members of the International Federation of Wizards feel extremely aggrieved.

"You better hurry up, our people have been working overtime at a high intensity for several weeks, I don't know how long they can hold on." Scrimgeour kindly reminded: "If we can get rid of these dark wizards , I think it is conducive to maintaining the stability of the European magic circle."
