"Click...... Click...... Click...... Click. ”

A pair of shiny hard-soled leather shoes "clicked" on the smooth floor of the foyer of the federation building, and walked quickly to the front desk with a rush of urgency, but still pretending to be calm, and suddenly stood in front of the seat of a receptionist.

"What about people?"

Of course, the receptionist had noticed him when he came in through the door.

Merely...... The front desk of the Federation is different from other places, and in order to ensure absolute fairness and openness, the wizards who can serve as receptionists here are all from the top forces in the European wizarding world, including the Blois family.

Here they are responsible for supervising and recording all the official transactions of the Federation with the outside world, and at the same time supervising each other, although the position within the staff of the Federation has always been a bit of a marginal place, but the status is by no means low.

"I'm sorry, Councilor Ionescu, who are you referring to?" When the receptionist witch saw him asking, she immediately asked a rhetorical question without humility or arrogance.

It must be said that the situation of the members of the Federation sent by the Ministry of Magic of various countries in this building is somewhat delicate. If the background is strong, naturally all aspects will be respected; But if the background is very ordinary, then the weight of this councilor's speech may not be comparable to that of the receptionist at the front desk.

And the strength of the Romanian Ministry of Magic behind Ionescu...... If he hadn't been lying behind the butt of the German Brandt family with a shy face all the time, he probably wouldn't even be able to maintain his embarrassing position now.

But...... Of course, he's also a member of the federation after all, isn't he?

"That's it...... Ida Brandt, I heard that she came to the headquarters building, and I want to look for her. Ionescu still didn't dare to play a trick at the front desk, and after saying that, he had to explain, "You should know that Madam Dumitru and I are in charge of a business related to her. ”

After that, he deliberately rummaged through the briefcase in his hand and took out a document from it.

"Wait a minute."

The receptionist reached out and took the document, opened it, swept it with his wand, and then handed it back to Ionescu and explained:

"Miss Ida Brandt has been taken to the underground waiting room, where President Akinbad will be meeting in person, and no one is allowed to have any kind of contact with her at this time."

"W-" Ionescu was in a hurry when he heard this, but finally pursed his lips and bowed slightly, "Okay, I see." ”

After saying this, he turned around and walked towards the door again, and sighed secretly in his heart.

"Is it still a step too late? But...... Why? Why did that little girl recover like this? No, I'll have to go to Brandt's house again as soon as possible. ”

And when Ionescu hurriedly left the federation headquarters, in the waiting room deep underground, Ida's heart was extremely uneasy.

To be honest, although this waiting room sounds a little scary, the environment is actually not bad. There were no shackles and chains, and there were no torture cages, at most the metal chair in the center of the room that was fixed to the ground and engraved with many alchemical symbols, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

And she wasn't even "invited" to sit on that chair, but just arranged on the sofa next to her.

Of course, it would be nice if there weren't so many guards watching inside and outside the door!

Just after more than ten minutes of anxiety in her heart, suddenly another sound of footsteps sounded from the corridor outside, and she gradually approached this side step by step.

Then, as the guards parted, the president of the Federation, Babajid Akinbad, who was wearing an eye patch, a cane, and an empty sleeve, finally appeared in Ida's sight.

It must be said that if it is just one of the old wounds, it may seem to others that it is a kind of medal that has been experienced. But if there are too many injuries, then I am afraid that only embarrassment and desolation will remain.

And the current Akinbad belongs to the latter.

It's a pity that even so, he can't step down from this position. It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that others don't let him.

"Miss Ida Brandt, is she?"

Akinbad's personality has not changed much, he is kind and friendly, which makes people feel kind. But after all, he is also an old man, and he can't change anything if he wants to.

"I'm sorry, but it's not my turn to say that, but...... Miss Brandt, you look so embarrassed! Are there any injuries on your body? ”

As he spoke, he sat down gently in front of another couch to Ida's right, escorted by the guards.

"Hmm...... I can't say it's great, but it's okay, it's not a big deal. Ida replied, and then said, "Mr. Akinbad, there are a few things that I must report to you as soon as possible, and they are very urgent. First of all, Madame Maxim she ...... She needs help! She ......"

Perhaps what she was trying to say was too complicated and urgent, so that Ida confused her train of thought for a moment.

"Don't worry, there are some things that you can't rush to come, talk slowly from beginning to end." Akinbad comforted, "What I know so far is that you have become a living corpse and have been taken away by Madame Maxim...... After that, what happened? ”

"Yes...... Living corpse, ......," Ida said with a shudder of her lips, "it was the head of the house who made me a living corpse in Beauxbatons...... It's my own uncle. And in order for me to recover and testify to this evil, Madame Maxim used some method unknown to me, transferring the power of the living corpse to herself! ”

"Transfer to yourself?"

When Akinbad heard this, he immediately fell silent with all kinds of surprise.

To be honest, if Maxim did do this, she would have done it irrationally. It's just that now is clearly not the time to think about this.

"Miss Brandt, where is Madame Maxim?" Akinbad pondered for a moment before he asked again.

"Still in France," Ida hurried, "in a Muggle town—I woke up to see that she had her magic chains bound and that she was still wounded. ”

Hearing her say this, Akinbad immediately asked her to tell the exact location of the town, and then asked the guards to inform the members of the judgment seat.

In the Federation, he trusted the few judges he had worked with and had a close relationship with Dumbledore.

And at this moment, Ida was in a hurry to speak:

"And ...... And also...... I want to see Miss Hermione Granger! I'll have to see her again! ”
