"Ugh!"
In front of the Minister of Magic's office, Kingsley sighed long, holding a document.
There are too many troubles recently. If he can, he really wants to resign now.
Unfortunately, as the current director of the Magic Law Enforcement Department, he has no right to choose to resign.
Especially when this time the situation was completely caused by his poor performance.
Sighing again, he finally gave up those meaningless illusions and knocked on the door of the minister's office.
With a hoarse and dull ‘please come in’, Kingsley cautiously pushed open the door and walked in.
The office was full of smoke, and Scrimgeour was frowning and smoking a cigar. Judging from the long smoke on the cigar, he seemed to have been in this state of absentia for a long time.
There are still many Kingsley acquaintances sitting in the corner of the office. They are bigwigs in various departments. The reason why they are here now is probably planned to discuss countermeasures.
It just seems that the result of the discussion is not very good, because their expressions at the moment are very ugly.
After nodding to everyone, Kingsley solemnly placed the document in his hand in front of Scrimgeour and said:
"Mr. Minister, please take a look at these. This is a summary of the newspapers of various newspapers this morning and the situation across the country."
Hearing this, Scrimgeour's body shook slightly, and the long section of smoke finally fell down and smashed into a ball on the desk.
Scrimgeour didn't care about this, he slowly picked up the file and looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more angry the expression on his face, until he finally threw the file out.
"It's really bullying!"
Scrimgeour roared, but Kingsley's expression in front of him was a bit weird. He suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity just now. He seemed to have said the same thing in the same place not long ago.
Shaking his head again, throwing out the messy thoughts in his mind, Kingsley said slowly:
"Mr. Minister, the situation is very bad now. I think we should hand over the three Aurors, so that they will have no reason to continue exercising."
As soon as this remark came out, all the gangsters who were still silent in the office nodded in agreement.
In their eyes, this was indeed a good way. Selling the three Aurors in exchange for calming down the situation was really a bargain.
As for the family's revenge behind those three people, they didn't care at all.
After all, the person who made this suggestion was Kingsley, and the person who adopted this suggestion was Scrimgeour. Those families who wanted to retaliate could not avenge them.
What's more, Scrimgeour held an entire Auror army in his hand, and it was another matter for those families with this level of force to dare to retaliate against him.
In the eyes of these people, Scrimgeour would definitely agree to this proposal, because if things were left unchecked, it would really be impossible to deal with it.
This is the standard politician thinking. As long as there is interest in the thinking of people like them, things like face and bottom line can be discarded.
But what they didn't expect was that Scrimgeour was not a politician in the true sense, but an iron-blooded soldier born in the military.
"You mean... want me to show weakness to those guys?"
Scrimgeour looked at Kingsley blankly and said.
But although Scrimgeour was extremely calm, no matter who was on the scene, she could feel the surging anger that was about to erupt.
Sure enough, in the next second, before Kingsley could answer, he saw Scrimgeour hit the desk with a punch and roared:
"I really doubt that there is something in your mind that you want me to submit to the mob? Satisfy their conditions? Do you know what this means? It means that we have made a bad head! They will understand that as long as they start rioting the Ministry of Magic, they will meet their conditions. This time they want the lives of the three Aurors. What about the next time? If they want you and mine, you will also meet them. Are they?"
Scrimgeour's fierce roar echoed in the office, and everyone present was silent, not even daring to let out the atmosphere.
In fact, thinking about it carefully, what Scrimgeour said is somewhat reasonable, but if there is no compromise, then how will this incident end?
"Or...Shall we ask for help from the International Magic Federation? France and the United States should be very happy to mobilize their hands."
A white-bearded official asked tentatively.
"Ah, yes, of course they are willing to make a move. After all, once they make a move, they can cut a large piece of meat in our place, and they will also require us to sign some traitorous agreements." Scrimgeour sneered, "and their Auror once If you enter the country, you won’t obey our orders, and you might do something maddening at that time. Do you think it doesn’t matter even that’s the case?"
As soon as this statement came out, the office fell into silence again, and the wizard who asked for help from the International Wizards Federation bowed her head in shame.
If possible, he really wants to shout at Scrimgeour now: "Then you should pay attention!"
It's a pity that he couldn't do this. After all, Scrimgeour was in anger now, and if he said some nonsense, the other party might have to do it against him.
But at this moment, the knock on the door came again. With Scrimgeour's answer, the pocky-faced young assistant minister ran in, panting and threw a copy of "Singing and Singing" in front of Scrimgeour. .
Everyone in the room jumped their eyelids and suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Mr. Minister, Luo... The boss of the Santos Group of Lolo Luo just issued a statement, publicly supporting the movement of Muggle wizards!"
Hearing that everyone present did not have much reaction. Although this was the first commercial organization to publicly support Muggle wizards, they had expected this situation a long time ago.
After all, businessmen are always profit-seeking. Publicly announcing the Muggle Wizard will definitely win the favor of those mud-legged people and greatly increase the company's profits.
They really didn't believe that the Los Santos Group would stand on the side of Muggle Wizards. Although the main body of the other group was entirely composed of Muggle Wizards, they are now in the same class as all pure blood!
And seeing the disapproving reactions of the big guys, the pocky-faced assistant thought they didn’t understand what he was saying, and anxiously repeated what was said just now, and opened the "Singing a Devil" to the statement. page.
Scrimgeour shook his head helplessly, but when he was about to let the assistant go out, his eyes suddenly caught the statement on "Singing the Devil".
Scrimgeour froze in his entire body, and in the next moment, he quickly grabbed the copy of "Singing and Singing" with a thunderous force.
As he continued to read, Scrimgeour's bloodshot scarlet eyes narrowed into a slit, and the word Sichuan was squeezed out between his brows.
At this moment, other people in the office also noticed something was wrong, and Scrimgeour's appearance at this time was really scary.
When everyone hesitated to ask Scrimgeour, they saw that Scrimgeour put together the copy of "Singing the Devil", and then solemnly said:
"The situation is out of control. Contact the International Wizarding Federation immediately. We need external support! Also! Send a letter to Dumbledore! Let him teach that student named McTorley!"
Now the expressions of the people in the entire office became extremely brilliant, especially the official who suggested Scrimgeour to look for foreign aid. At this moment, his expression was as if he had been constipated for ten and a half months.
At the same time, at the head office of Los Santos Group on the Thames in South London, a huge speech is being held, and the speaker is Emily.
It can be seen that Emily is really very popular, and it was only the first time that it was announced that it had attracted hundreds of Muggle wizards.
Seeing the beautiful the stage choking and recounting her experience during this period and her gratitude for helping her mother and daughter, many people in the audience shed tears.
In the background, Mike and Franklin watched all this coldly.
In fact, in today's speech, Mike should have gone on to say a few words, but for safety reasons, Mike finally chose to let Emily be his microphone.
Unlike Benjamin and Soraka, the hearts of Mike and Franklin have never been touched by Emily. To put it bluntly, in their eyes, both Emily and Loya are just tool men. .
If possible, Mike even wants to arrange for Emily to die on the podium in full view at a suitable time, and then throw the pot on the Ministry of Magic.
As a result, tens of thousands of Muggle wizards in the entire country would lose their minds.
This is undoubtedly an extremely cold-blooded plan, but it can bring extraordinary benefits.
But what is helpless is that Benjamin and others seem to have some unnecessary feelings for Emily because of guilt, which forces Mike to take their mood into consideration and stop related arrangements.
But it doesn't matter. Mike's real killer move is the same statement that was previously released this morning by "Singing a Devil" and Emily's speech preview.
Not only did he make it clear that he would try his best to support the Muggle wizard compatriots, but he also expressed his determination to fight for power for other disadvantaged groups.
Among them, there are 15 kinds of vulnerable groups that he mentioned alone, such as witches discriminated against by wizards, centaurs who were arbitrarily killed in captivity, goblins who were almost extinct, and those who had been enslaved for thousands of years. House elves...
All of these are within the scope of Mike's support. For a period of time in the future, as long as all the above intelligent beings participating in this operation can get free emergency treatment, food and temporary shelter from the Los Santos Group.
Mike can imagine that this life will spread quickly in a very short time. Most people who see this statement will think that Mike is a lunatic, because even this level of assistance requires a huge amount of money. Jin Jialong.
But only a very small number of people including Mike will understand that once Mike’s move is carried out, it will gain the favor of all vulnerable groups in the country. Even under his instigation, these vulnerable groups are very likely to merge together. Form an unprecedented huge force.
The Ministry of Magic is not afraid of a single Muggle wizard movement. After all, although there are a large number of Muggle wizards, their personal strength is generally weak, and the number is not so large that the Ministry of Magic is desperate. It really wants to fight a protracted battle. Sooner or later this group of poor turtles will collapse.
But it would be different if the Muggle wizards found more allies. The power of the integration of multiple groups could not be matched by the Ministry of Magic alone.
It was Scrimgeour who understood this to make such a huge change in his attitude.
It's just that asking for help from the International Magic Federation is far from being finalized in a day or two.
And while the officials of the Ministry of Magic and Foreign Affairs of the country were still in the temporary office of the International Magic Federation in Paris, France, talking with envoys from other countries, Scrimgeour's most worried situation had happened.
The first is the fairies.
As the most moisturizing inhuman intelligent life in the wizarding world, after Mike talked with them for two full days and promised a bunch of blank checks, they have now completely deviated from the Ministry of Magic and turned to Mike. Aside.
As a way of expressing their attitude, they also posted magic posters about Emily's speech and equal rights events in every corner of Gringotts.
This undoubtedly made many pure-blood wizards very dissatisfied, and many wizards of large pure-blood families even threatened to take away all the gold coins stored in the Gringotts.
It has to be said that this is indeed a huge threat to the fairies who regard money as their fate, but the fairies are obviously stunned by the bright future described by Mike, and in the end they resisted the pressure and saved them. Those posters.
This has improved the bad image of the fairies in the eyes of wizards, especially Muggle wizards~EbookFREE.me~, and also allowed others to see the determination of the fairies.
With the eldest bird, other groups quickly expressed their opinions.
Many non-human intelligent races such as centaur and mermaid have all released a friendly signal to Mike and joined the camp of the Los Santos group.
But these are nothing.
It is the joining of the witch group that really makes the fighting power of the Los Santos group reborn!
It is important to know that no matter how firm the beliefs of other groups are, they cannot change the fact that they are at the bottom of society. Being at the bottom of society means that they are not only limited in their strength, but also have very little right to speak.
The witch group is different. The overall quality of this group is much stronger than that of other groups. Not to mention that there are some well-educated and extremely high-quality social elites in the witch group, as well as the powerful and powerful at the top of the class pyramid. , It can be said that their participation directly increased the speed of Mike's plan by several gears!
But in contrast, the witch community wants much more.
