Chapter 6: Meetings (3)

"Murderer?" Penny wondered. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Well, that's right. That guy killed an entire street of Muggles more than a decade ago. Maybe one day if he doesn't find life exciting enough, maybe he'll start all over again. In particular, the family that adopted his godson might have a special place in his mind because they didn't sign this promise to Harry Potter?"

"No, no. Dumbledore has said he will keep us safe. Penny muttered quietly.

"Dumbledore?" Holly heard Penny. "Then you just need to know that Dumbledore once guaranteed Lily's safety, but in the end...... Harry Potter is still on your doorstep. ”

"Enough. Give me the letter of promise. Penny looked a little irritated, and when she got the paperwork, she signed her name so hard that she almost scratched the thick parchment.

"Well, that's the case...... I want to ......" Penny handed the parchment back to Holly, and turned to look at the living room, as if to make sure that the people in the living room were noticing the situation, only to see that Mr. Weasley was still there and tried to communicate with Vernon Dursley, then turned to look at Holly, "I think...... You can put your wand away, right?"

"Oh?" Holly raised her eyebrows, a little surprised at Penny's words. "It seems...... Should we reacquaint ourselves?"

"Are you sister or sister?" Penny snapped in.

"Oh, what are you talking about?" replied Holly, pretending to be dumbfounded.

"Think I can't see it? You and Lily are almost carved out of the same mold, except for the eyes and the same bastard named James Potter. Okay, relax, I don't know why, but it looks like Harry Potter doesn't know what you have to do with him, so I'm just asking. After all, the wizarding world and this world don't have much connection, whether you answer or not, it won't have any special impact on my life, isn't the existence of the Ministry of Magic to try to cut off the connection between the two worlds?" said Penny.

"It seems... You know a thing about the wizarding world?" Holly replied tentatively.

"Understood? Not at all. Penny replied with self-deprecation when she heard Holly's question. "How could the wizarding world be open to a Muggle like me?"

"So ......"

"Just go, I guess you're here for these promises from Harry Potter, right?" said Penny.

"That's not it, but looking at the situation now, it seems that there is no need to say what I want to say later. Holly stood up and looked into the living room. Secretly collected a few spilled sugar cubes.

After the Weasleys left, before Vernon Dursley could recover, Holly disappeared into the fire.

The Ministry of Magic, the minister's office, which has not been used for many years, has once again welcomed its owner.

Sitting behind a large desk, looking at the two stacks of parchment on the desk, which were more than a man high, Holly suddenly regretted why he suddenly couldn't think of running to the Ministry of Magic.

I opened a few volumes of documents casually, and saw that the results of the processing drafted by the deputy ministers above were roughly in line with my own opinions, so I directly signed and approved the documents.

In a short time, the parchment roll on the table was reduced by half. However, with the sound of wind chimes, the rhythm of Heley's work was interrupted. Erinka came from the deputy minister's office not far away, dressed in black wizard robes.

"Long time no see, do you want to check out Barty Crouch's organizing committee?" asked Erinka.

"Your paperwork is done?" Holly replied without looking up.

"Almost, I don't look like someone who needs to take time out of the messian's errands. Erinka said with a grin.

"Well, I'll just wait until I've read these documents. Or you can go over there in advance to find out what's going on. Holly said as he picked up a quill and signed the paper.

"By the way, will you have time in a while? My will and that of Porter need to be notarized by Wizengamot. Holly remembered something again and stopped Erinka.

"You should be free, just call me when the time comes. I'll go to Barty first and ask him to bring the people who are working from home with them. Erinka said as she walked out.

"Alas......" Holly sighed, picked out a few documents that seemed to be more important, and continued to read.

In the organizing committee of the competition, the already messy office becomes even more messy with Erinka's arrival. After a while, the whole large office was hastily cleaned up, but even after all kinds of documents were put away in different categories, the office was able to free up a little space for everyone to settle down.

"Alright, Barty. How's the connection going?" asked Holly, who was the last to enter, not caring about anyone.

"Everything is going according to plan, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, two schools of magic and wizardry have agreed to send students to the UK for the competition this year. Barty Crouch thought for a moment and said. "Fortunately, everyone has been preparing for this competition for a long time, and the ministries of magic of various countries are quite supportive of this competition, saving us a lot of trouble in communication, but the different languages of different countries still have a great impact on us. ”

"Languages are different, well, is the Ministry of Magic short of people in language?" asked Erinka.

"Well, it looks like it's lacking at the moment. ”

"Okay, talk to Connelly later, next year's recruitment for the Ministry of Magic can focus on this aspect, otherwise it will still be very troublesome for everyone to have international activities. ”

"Yes, in addition to this problem, there are some relatively minor problems, so I'll find the person in charge of this. Percy Weasley, tell our ministers about the specific problems that still exist. Barty Crouch pushed Percy out, and it could be seen that he still liked this young wizard who had just graduated, and was working hard to train and train him.

"Well, in addition to the language barrier that Mr. Crouch mentioned earlier, we also found some other problems, such as the ...... in the first event."

"Stop! Don't reveal anything about the specific competition in front of us, just say what aspects of the problem may need our help to coordinate or help. Holly interrupted Percy.

"Hmm...... To put it simply, there are several main points, one is the safety of the players, even if we negotiate with several principals, there is no way to guarantee 100% that every player can complete each project safely; second, some props need to be imported from abroad, but this involves negotiation with the Muggle community; third, the registration conditions of the players, which have not yet been formalized. ……”
