Chapter 58: 058 Backyard Fire
Hu Qing is famous!
Unlike the last fight against Grindelwald, Piquelly, the chairman of the Wizarding Congress of the United States, deliberately concealed the contributions of Hu Qing and Newt in order to save the face of the Wizarding Congress, and their names were only passed on by word of mouth among wizards, and this time Hu Qing directly appeared on the front page of major wizarding newspapers in the wizarding world.
The erasure of a city, the tragic death of thousands of Muggles, and the crushing defeat of the International Federation of Wizards are definitely a sensational news in the wizarding world, which will surely go down in history, and the Egyptian Ministry of Magic and the International Federation of Wizards will be labeled incompetent, crucified on the pillar of shame, and denounced by the wizards.
In order to weaken the negative impact, the Egyptian Ministry of Magic exaggerated how powerful and murderous Immorton was, and published Henutsen's prophecy as evidence, which was indeed very effective. Similarly, Hu Qing, who killed Immorton, stood on the cusp of the storm, and his reputation almost reached the sky.
The Ministries of Magic of various countries spoke in unison and praised Hu Qing, saying that he was a hero in the wizarding world and a rising star in the wizarding world...... All kinds of shameless praise were reported, and Hu Qing felt blushing.
"What are you looking at?"
Evelyn hugged Hu Qing from behind in a black low-cut suspender nightdress, her face pressed against his back, full of attachment.
Hu Qing put down the newspaper, let Evelyn sit on his lap, and smiled, "Look how they tout me." β
"It must be exciting!"
Evelyn became interested, picked up a copy of the Egyptian Prophet, and at a glance saw the illustration on the front pageβa picture of a moving, high-spirited Hu Qing.
"Spirited."
Evelyn tilted her head and kissed Hu Qing, and whispered: "Minister Maglabi Gaman, the Minister of Magic of Egypt, told reporters that he had never seen such an outstanding young wizard, and that Mr. Hu's achievements and extraordinary magic made the powerful British Mr. Dumbledore look up to. Minister Garman was blunt, and he didn't think Mr. Dumbledore had experienced so many events at Mr. Hu's age......"
"By the way, who is Dumbledore?"
"A wizard with great talent and magical powers." Hu Qing explained.
"Oh." Evelyn replied and continued to read with great interest: "If Mr. Hu is a British wizard, I will try my best to help him apply for the Order of the First Class of the Order of the Merlin...... This was stated by the British Minister of Magic. β
In addition, McLoupp, president of the International Federation of Wizards, told reporters that he is submitting a proposal to the International Federation of Wizards Review Committee to reward wizards with outstanding contributions, and if this proposal passes, Mr. Hu may become the first outstanding young wizard in the wizarding world.
"German Minister of Magic......"
"French Minister of Magic......"
"Oh my God, you're so good!" Evelyn put down the newspaper and hugged Hu Qing and said.
Hu Qing said indifferently: "The reputation and praise are too vain, in fact, I am not as perfect as they boasted." The wizarding world needs a hero, and I just happened to be there. They tried to make me a hero and wanted to force me to do something, such as challenge Mr. Grindelwald, who had fled back to Germany. β
"Grindelwald is amazing?"
"A very powerful wizard."
"That ......"
Hu Qing said slyly: "I'm not so stupid, I was stupidly run to deal with Grindelwald after being poured a few mouthfuls of ecstasy soup by them, I will take my reputation and leave Egypt soon......"
"Hmph."
Evelyn's mood instantly became bad, she stood up from Hu Qing's lap and threw herself on the bed.
"Go away and go find your Queenie." Evelyn yelled irritably.
Hu Qing took her hand and said with a smile: "I'll give you a gift." β
A ring made of yellow gold with a sapphire band appeared on Evelyn's ring finger, which was tightened under Hu Qing's control, and fit perfectly with her ring finger.
Evelyn sat up abruptly, stroked the ring happily, and hooked her finger at Hu Qing, who sat on the edge of the bed with a smile.
She pushed Hu Qing down, pressed on him, and said in a fierce tone: "There is one thing you must keep in mind, Mr. Hu, come to see me at least once a month, if you can't do it, hum ......"
"One time is too little."
"But you said it." Evelyn lowered her head and kissed him, squeezing her body into Hu Qing's arms, "I knew you would leave...... You're not with me, I always have to find something to do, so I have a new subject. β
"Tell me."
"Have you ever heard of the Scorpion King?" Evelyn suddenly became agitated.
Hu Qing nodded, "I've heard it, it's a legend." β
"Well, there is no record of this Demon Scorpion Emperor so far, but I am a great explorer......"
"No, you're a great librarian."
Evelyn punched him, "I'm the curator of Canahan now, not the librarian...... Don't interject, interrupt my train of thought, that is, find the tomb of the Scorpion King. β
"I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling that you're going to dig up something strange again this time." Hu Qing looked at her strangely.
"No, it's enough to meet the mummy once." Evelyn was distraught, "There's a second subject. β
"What?"
"Searching for the ...... of the Apocalypse"
βWHATοΌβ
Hu Qing sat up in shock, "Why did you think of looking for the apocalypse?" β
"Questions?"
"No, maybe I'm thinking too much, you're more energetic than me." Hu Qing turned over and pressed Evelyn, "In order not to be frightened by you, we need to change the subject and do something we love to do." β
β¦β¦
West Avenue Villa, Central Park, New York.
Grindelwald fled back to Germany, and the German Ministry of Magic confirmed the news, and Piqueli withdrew the Aurors who were protecting Queenie and Tina, but the villa was still protected by a powerful spell.
In the living room, Queenie is wearing a sexy silk petticoat, lying on the sofa like a mermaid, flipping through a pile of newspapers, focusing on Hu Qing's news.
The house-elf Min walked in, and Queenie asked, "Is there something wrong, Min?" β
"Dear hostess, there is a handsome blonde wizard who wants to see you, and he says his name is Alan Bout, your classmate at Ilvermorny."
"Alan?" Queenie looked puzzled, "Please let him in." β
"Yes."
Queenie grabbed the coat from the couch and put it on her body, got up and walked to the door, where Alan was led by Min.
"Hey, Alan."
"Hey, Queenie......"
Queenie looked at Alan, her face turned pale, and she asked absentmindedly, "Why did you have time to come to me today?" Min, two cups of coffee ......"
"No, Queenie, I'm here to tell you that the Chinese wizard is not worthy of your love, he has a new love......"
Queenie said irritably, "If this is the case, then Alan, I already know, is there anything else?" β
"I ......"
"That's not it, Min, please get Mr. Bout out."
Allen's face was ugly, "I'm the one who loves you the most, Queenie......"
"Leave."
Min watched Alan leave, and Queenie lost her strength in an instant, leaning against the door frame and sobbing quietly, then staggered upstairs, packing up her things with her wand to leave.
"What are you doing here, Mistress ......" Min asked uneasily.
"I'm not your mistress, don't follow me."
