Chapter 264
Undercover In Harry Potter Chapter 264
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning shines on Diagon Alley, Diagon Alley's merchants have already woken up, and they are cleaning the courtyard and opening their doors to do business.
In a northerly part of Diagon Alley, there is a building made of black brick. On the top of the building, a hand holding a newspaper is carved out of black stone.
This is the headquarters of Seer Newspapers, where countless newspapers are sold every day in various ways.
For a long time, this is almost the only way to become a wizard of the British magic circle to know about the national major event.
At the same time, Seer newspaper also has great trust in the heart of British wizard.
On this day, several black robe wizards walked into the Seer newspaper office, among them Sean Carroll.
As soon as these people came in, someone immediately greeted them.
"Oh, Carol Captain, you guys are really rare." A wizard wearing a neat jet-black robe, with an extraordinary bearing, said with a smile to the entire group.
Sean Carroll was expressionless and cold, and said in a low voice: "According to Minister Slughorn's order, the Ministry of Magic is going to rectify the Seer newspaper!"
The wizard's eyes narrowed, but his expression quickly subsided, and he said with a smile: "Oh, is that so, then please let Captain Carol go to the VIP room to rest first, and we will prepare the newspaper's information for you to see. , and then..."
Carroll didn't care about the person beside him, for him, it was enough to complete the task directly, and there was no need to do so many twists and turns.
Before he came, he had already checked the office distribution of the Seer newspaper, so Carroll walked directly to the president's office.
The wizard looked at the other party and ignored him, so he clenched the teeth, walked up to Carol quickly, stopped the other party, and said, "Carol Captain, I hope you don't be so rude !"
Carroll raised her eyes and said contemptuously: "Rude? I obey the minister's orders, you call this rude?"
The wizard choked, this The thing is that his side does not have an advantage, after all, the other party follows the order of the Minister of Magic, who has the highest political status in the British magic circle.
"Carol Captain, the president is seeing the distinguished guest. I can't meet you for the time being, so please wait a moment." The wizard stepped forward and whispered, "That guest is Lucius Mr. Malfoy!"
Carol was a little impatient, he took out the wand and threw it at random, a red light flew out and opened the other party directly.
The wizard was suddenly hit by Carroll, and was thrown out. The whole person was smashed to the ground, and the originally neat robe was also messed up.
"Carol, what are you doing!" wizard stared wide-eyed, he didn't expect the other party to shoot in public.
At this time, the movement on their side also attracted the attention of other editors and reporters in the newspaper.
Among them, a blonde witch in emerald green clothes watched this scene with great interest. She excitedly took out a small camera and had already secretly taken many pictures.
After shaking off the person blocking the way in front of her, Carol strode into the president's office without knocking on the door, and opened the door with a note of "Ah Laho hole open".
In the office, Mr. Adams, the president of the Seer newspaper, and Lucius Malfoy turned their heads in amazement and looked towards Carol at the door.
"You... Carol? What are you doing?" Mr. Adams frowned and snorted displeasedly.
Carroll didn't pay much attention to Mr. Adams, he turned his attention to Lucius.
The latter took a look, then glanced at Mr. Adams next to him, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Adams, I'm leaving first, I'm leaving."
Mr. Adams' face After a while, he said kindly to Lucius: "Looking forward to the next meeting, Mr. Malfoy."
Thinking that he had handed the things to Lucius just now, Mr. Adams relaxed for a while, slightly defiantly. looked towards Carroll.
And when Lucius was going out, he walked past Carroll and said softly, "I've got what Mr. Crouch asked for."
Carroll looked confused. Changed, took a few steps into the house, looked towards Mr. Adams, and said in a straight voice: "According to Minister Slughorn's order, from now on, the Seer newspaper office will be temporarily closed, and the Ministry of Magic will take over directly to carry out the reform!"
Mr. Adams listened to Carroll, coldly snorted, and said, "The Ministry of Magic has been destroying magic things these days, and you're completely down to muggle!"
Since the past few days, Ministry of Magic has dispatched Auror everywhere to carry out a series of brutal reform and renovation activities, installed a lot of muggle technology, and arranged a series of muggle technology training work.
All of this, in Adams' view, is simply nonsense!
magic world should naturally look like magic world. If magic world is full of muggle world technology products, what is the difference between magic world being occupied by muggle world?
In response to this, many businesses in Diagon Alley are looking for the magic families who immigrated to the magic circle in the United States, and entrust their property in their names, so that they can You can go to the magic circle in the United States to continue doing business, and you don't have to stay in this place that has no magic world flavor at all!
Carroll didn't say anything to Adams, he just came to announce the order, if Adams tried to resist, then he didn't mind arresting him!
Adams was very cooperative, followed Carroll and the others to leave the Seer Newspaper, and at the same time ordered all Seer Newspapers to close.
.
In Ministry of Magic, Isère is holding a goblet in one hand and a cigarette in the other. The gramophone next to him is playing classical music that was popular in the 1920s.
He took a puff on the cigarette, then exhaled the smoke.
Izel looked at the smoke in the air, he smiled slightly, and swayed a few times in the smoke with his goblet hand.
Izel has always been clear about Crouch's use of his position to issue orders these days.
He is indeed a puppet minister now, and the other party uses his identity as the minister of the Ministry of Magic and the various contacts of the Slughorn family to carry out various actions that are beneficial to his plan.
These actions, to a certain extent, violated the interests of many Slughorn families, especially his great-grandfather, who wrote letters to ask himself more than once.
hehe …
Everything in the world has its ups and downs.
Crouch now enjoys the benefits of the Slughorn family, but will pay for it later!
Izel's eyes flashed and he drank the wine in his hand!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then house elf Milley walked in slowly with a bottle of wine.
Because the British magic circle is now shrouded in magic, unless you wear something specially designed to avoid the impact, even the house elf can't use the teleport magic, so Millie can only serve him on foot, which is really reduced. Efficiency.
Isère stretched out the empty goblet, Milley poured a cup quickly, and then Isère asked, "What interesting things are out there now, can you tell me?"
p>
Millie was expressionless and quickly talked about the various major events that happened in the British magic circle recently.
Izel listened one by one, and when it came to the Hogwarts change, Filch couldn't help laughing when he was wearing a muggle security uniform and holding an electric baton.
"hahaha, Filch, hahaha..."
Izel couldn't hold back just thinking about this scene.
Milley finished laughing after watching Izel, and continued: "There is also a change in the professorship at Hogwarts, Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor has been replaced by retired Auror Alastor Moody, and assistant professor Jason Bolton is on leave. . . ...."
"Wait!" Iser interrupted, "Jason Bolton is on leave?"
Milley clicked nodded.
Isère expression congeals, since Crouch's announcement, he also knows that Jason has some relationship with Crouch.
At this time, Jason Bolton is on leave from Hogwarts...
Isère's Sixth Sense tells him it's definitely not right!
He was coldly snorted, pressed to Millie's ear, and whispered...
...
