Chapter 9 The Minister Publishes Books Again and Makes Money!
Auror Captain Russell was the first to wake up, he stood up, rubbed his neck, and hurried to check on Martell's injuries.
This one can't have an accident.
Fortunately, Stark was measured, and Martell just passed out.
But that's even more scary. How can magic be controlled so well when fighting?
This shows that Stark's strength far surpasses them, and he can control it so easily!
Martell tossed and turned to wake up, and when he opened his eyes, he immediately exclaimed, "Where's Stark?" Did you catch him! Russell! ”
Russell shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Sir, Stark and Granger have already run away. ”
"There's no apparition here, notify the Aurors to lock down the building."
"No, sir." Russell pointed to the Victorian-style floor-to-ceiling window.
"They broke the glass and probably jumped straight from the fifth floor." TV debut
Under the window is the Grand Canal, and the two will not fall to their deaths at all, and it is estimated that they are gone.
Martell struggled to get up from the floor, slowly moving his steps to dust off his chest.
The other Aurors also woke up, and there was an uncomfortable silence for a while.
Escaped from being knocked unconscious by a fourth-grade wizard, and it was not glorious at all. Even a shame.
Martel suddenly remembered Clegane. The last time we met, he laughed at each other.
Fortunately, Stark is very famous, which makes everyone selectively ignore the issue of age and feel a little more comfortable.
"Did Stark say anything when he ran away?" Martell looked at the gypsy girl sitting on the ground.
Before Nymelia could wake up from her fright, she stumbled:
"No...... No...... Mr. ”
"They seem to have taken the wooden box and the Goblet of Fire." Russell said after examining it.
"Don't worry, the Goblet of Fire is fake, and the box is useless." Martell shook his head.
"So what now, Mr. Secretary-General." Russell waited for the next instruction.
"A city-wide manhunt is issued in Venice, and they will definitely not leave here." Martell commanded:
"Notify me as soon as you find out."
"Yes, sir."
"And, Russell." Martell turned to a warning tone.
"Information about the disappearance of the Goblet of Fire must be classified as top secret.
You can't report it to anyone. Report to me directly if there is a situation. This must be made clear. ”
"No problem, sir." Russell hurriedly said.
Compared with the director of the Auror Office, Mr. Secretary General is obviously a little bigger.
"Are you clear about the requirements for this mission?"
"Clear!" Russell replied. "We have two goals.
The first is the Goblet of Fire; The second is Stark and Granger. ”
"That's right!" "The Goblet of Fire must be recovered as soon as possible, intact," Martell said. Still have questions? ”
"Is the use of force permitted?" Russell hesitated and asked.
Again, Stark and Granger come to Venice for the International Congress of Wizards.
The two of them have a lot of influence and fame in the wizarding world, so they hunt down like this...... France is a case in point.
Martell's shoulder blade, which had been wounded by William, was still aching.
He endured the pain and said coldly, "I said that the Goblet of Fire is very important. ”
"Understood." The four turned and left the room.
Martell touched his shoulder with his badly burned right hand and watched them away in silence.

……
In Venice, water is the last thing to do. Bounded by the Grand Canal, which flows in reverse S-shape, Venice is divided into two major areas.
Each region is divided into three administrative districts, for a total of six administrative districts, hence the name "six districts".
But the canals of Venice were not built for navigation, but for water.
Of course, boats can be carried on the river, but that is only the result, and the purpose is to divert water.
For the Venetians, to live in this environment for a long time, the "living lagoon" is a matter of life and death.
The canal is well connected and flows at a high speed, which is a must.
So when William and Hermione reappeared, they were already far away from St. Mark's Basilica.
Before surfacing, William took his wand and poked the bubble head charm on his head.
Otherwise, the sudden appearance of two Draconians would definitely scare the Muggles. You might think that the undersea people have climbed ashore.
There was no bubble spell, and the river did not soak the hair. Before jumping from the fifth-floor window, Hermione cast a waterproof and moisture-resistant spell.
The two also wore warm-up badges on their bodies to resist the biting water.
Therefore, this is not a fall into the water and an escape, but ...... Extreme speed rafting!
After emerging from the water, the sky was still pouring rain, smashing on the shoulders of the two men.
William looked around and recognized where they were.
- Maritime customs.
The austere, triangular fortress with its watchtower, once guarded Venice from the Byzantine invasion.
Today, the watchtower has been replaced by a huge golden spherical structure.
The weather vane on the top is in the shape of the goddess of fortune, constantly changing direction in the breeze, reminding sailors of the unpredictable fate of sailors.
Destiny...... It's really timely.
Not long ago, the two were invited guests, but now they have become fugitives and are suspected of stealing the Goblet of Fire.
William also knocked out four Aurors and a high-ranking Ministry of Magic.
What an unpredictable fate!
William and Hermione stared at each other, but instead of being afraid, they hugged and laughed in the river.
This exciting escape is indeed exciting!
William regretted it somewhat.
Hermione shouldn't be allowed to cast a waterproof and damp spell to tempt her body...... Doesn't it smell?
Luckily, Hermione didn't know what William was thinking, otherwise she might have drowned him in the water.
Two heads popped out of nowhere and attracted the attention of many tourists.
They exclaimed, and some even tried to jump into the water to save people.
A young lady even took off her pants and was about to jump down to save the boy.
But seeing the two of them hugging each other, they laughed...... Get! It turned out to be a neuropathy.
Blind that face.
Everyone on the shore had different expressions, but they all gave up saving people and crowded together to watch the young lady who undressed.
More than a dozen gondolas, riding the undulating waves, are ready to salvage the children who have fallen into the water.
But one ship was faster, and it entered the channel marked by the buoy, and the wake that rolled up shook the other ships up and down like corks.
"See you again." Thereney whistled.
She sat upright in the bow of the boat, holding cold noodles in her left hand and a book in her right hand.
She took a bite of noodles, looked at the two people in the water, and said with a smile:
"What's going on? Couple martyrdom? Or went to kiss under the sighing bridge? ”
William backstroked on the water and said with a smile: "Fate, fate." ”
"There is indeed fate." Terenee pulled out a camera out of nowhere and took a picture of the two.
She smiled and said, "Stark, Granger overboard...... Selling to a reporter from the Daily Prophet should be worth a lot of money. ”
"Witch?" William's eyebrows raised.
"yes." Terrenee put down the camera and said seriously, "The first time I saw you, I recognized it."
I should have said that I was in Paris last year...... Well, back in July. ”
"Oh, so we both saved your life?"
"yes, but now it's flat!" Tremier held out her hand. "You don't want to be in the water all the time, do you?"
William motioned for Hermione to go up first. Once on board, Tryne grabbed his hand again.
Tryne's strength was really great, and she easily dragged William onto the boat.
"The two of us are in danger right now, is there a safer place without dragging you down?" William asked.
Tryne thought for a moment and said, "My family? ”
William glanced at the woman and nodded, "Then what are you waiting for?" ”
Tryne kicked the accelerator, and the gondola accelerated, making a splash.
She picked up the book again and read it carefully.
Looking at William's gaze, Terrenee looked up and explained:
"I'm going to sail to England to watch the World Cup. It should be beneficial to learn more about your country's culture. ”
Hermione wondered, "What kind of book?" ”
"The Book of Peace," Terrenee handed over. "Your Minister of Magic, the book you just published is quite interesting."
After Hermione took it, William leaned over and looked at it curiously.
I saw that page read: Minister of Magic Ping An, Secretary Ping An, Director of the Legal Department Ping An......
William whistled.
Minister Fudge began to circle the money again.
