At dinner time, Gabrielle returned to the Zhang family's place by herself.

"Gabrielle, where's your brother?" Fleur was surprised to see Gabrielle come back alone.

"My brother was captured by the beautiful goblins!" Gabrielle said.

"Huh?!" Fleur suddenly failed to keep up with her sister's train of thought.

"My brother was caught in a coffee shop, and they treated me to a snack and asked him about Gringotts and the gold coins." Gabrielle continued holding up several fist-sized lollipops.

Fleur said "oh" and went back to the kitchen to continue preparing dinner, she knew about the Gringotts money, and she knew the truth about the coffee shop, so when the two points overlapped, she wasn't worried.

Then Gabrielle went into the kitchen to help, and they had to bring dinner to the fair.

With the approach of Christmas, coupled with the arrival of the Hogwarts student holidays, the number of customers at today's fair has skyrocketed, and everyone has gone to help, and it is estimated that it will be almost ten o'clock in the evening today.

At the door of the venue, Scrimgeour watched the customers coming in and out, while eating the meat bun in his hand. At the moment, his mood is mixed.

Worryingly, the pseudo-Ministry of Magic in the south reorganized the Wizengamot before him, leaving him politically defeated.

Happily, although the Ministry of Pseudo-Magic has also opened an economic battlefield in Diagon Alley, he is not worried about it. Because half-blood wizards and Muggle-born wizards don't dare to come to Diagon Alley at all now, only pure-blood wizards dare to go there, and their choice is only Hogsmeade. Among the wizards in England, the proportion of pure-blood wizards is lower than that of the other two wizards, not to mention that some pure-blood wizards have defected to Hogsmeade. In addition, Russia, the United States, France, Germany, Italy and other European and American countries also sent some merchants to participate in the exhibition, and wizards from many European countries also made a special trip to shop and discuss cooperation, which made the exhibition gain a lot of additional diplomatic points.

Not to mention the achievements of the Ministry of Magic in addition to taxes during the fair, which undoubtedly made the Ministry of Magic's money bag bulge a lot.

In addition to this, someone suggested to Scrimgeour that he should prepare some decent "antiques" and "crafts" in the near future, and that he would spend a lot of money on them.

It's just that when he thinks about the next road, his skull hurts again. In the face of great changes unseen in a thousand years at this moment, he needs to be cautious step by step, and make decisions with the mentality of walking on thin ice as if he is on the edge of the abyss. And he's not good at that.

At this point he began to miss Dumbledore, and if this wise old man was still around, he could provide him with enough advice and advice.

Although there is another boss in Hogwarts who is also full of wisdom, he does not dare to disturb people.

"Good evening, Mr. Minister."

Scrimgeour's thoughts were interrupted by a greeting from Neville holding a self-agitating anti-spill crucible, and beside him was the old lady Longbottom wearing her trademark hat.

"Good evening, Old Lady Longbottom, Neville." Scrimgeour greeted.

In the past two years, the Longbottom family has risen to catch up with the now dazzling Weasleys.

Mrs. Longbottom has an extremely wide network among pure-blood wizards, and she is not lacking in action, and after Umbridge's persecution of students at Hogwarts was exposed, she led a group of old men and old ladies to block Fudge in her office. After the old lady's son and daughter-in-law recovered, they returned to the ranks of the Aurors, and are now the Ministry of Magic. Neville was trembling even more now, because of Harry's own death, and now the position of Hogwarts Boys Council President had fallen on his head.

Scrimgeour must be treated with respect for this stalwart of the Ministry of Magic's ruling class.

Just as Mr. Minister wished the old lady good health and Neville studied hard, Harry and his party walked out talking and laughing.

"Harry, you guys escaped from prison?!" Neville shouted to Harry in surprise, "Hurry back, or you'll be found and locked up again." ”

Ignoring the students who were fighting, Scrimgeour stepped forward to ask Mrs. Weasley if she was healed.

Mrs. Weasley thanked the leader for her concern, and looked at Harry, who had been dragged aside by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic for messing with Neville and affecting the order.

"Why only arrest us and not Neville?!" Harry asked the Aurors dragging him.

"Have you forgotten that the head of the Auror Office is called Frank Longbottom?" The Auror asked, looking at Harry with caring eyes.

Yes, the second generation of officials can't afford to mess with it.

The Aurors gave Harry a few words of warning and then let him go, originally he could have left this kind of thing alone, but now the minister is standing next to him, and it is not good to openly touch the fish.

The Minister left after all the words were over, and Percy said to his mother, "Let's go, Mother, and go to our place for dinner tonight." ”

As soon as Mrs. Weasley agreed, two reporters appeared at Percy's side, "Mr. Weasley, can I go to your residence together and conduct an interview with Mr. Potter, you, and your teammates?" ”

Percy looked at the elusive two with an unkind face, and the other smiled and said, "Please don't mind, as a reporter, in addition to running fast, you also need to master some necessary skills." ”

"Harry, would you like to be interviewed by this reporter?" Percy asked Harry. He knew that if he couldn't satisfy the reporters' desire to interview, he shouldn't point to them and get rid of them.

"Huh?!" Harry was stunned for a moment, because of a certain Western journalist, he did not have a good impression of the reporter.

Diana seemed to see Harry's concern, and said, "Don't worry, we won't make false reports." You can review our interview and sign it before we can report on it. ”

The naïve Harry saw that the other party was so sincere, so he agreed to the other party's request.

"For our interviews, they have to be voluntary, and we also need to review the transcripts." After Harry agreed, Percy no longer objected to the reporter's interview.

Soon after the formation of the International Auror Organization, it was provoked by the media with a magnifying glass from the very beginning. If there was a positive news about them during the Christmas season, it would be a rare achievement for Percy.

However, Percy was quickly caught off guard by reporters. On the way back to the station, Diana suddenly asked Percy a question: "Mr. Weasley, it is said that in the several hostage rescue operations you participated in commanding, all the hostages were taken to the hospital due to injuries sustained in the rescue operations, may I ask if this is due to unexpected circumstances or because of your command style?" ”
