Chapter Sixty-Nine: A Sudden Target

Brian, the deputy director of the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic, didn't speak loudly, but it still reached the ears of everyone present.

Including those wizard visitors who have just walked on the brink of death.

"What, he caused us to do this?"

"It turns out that he did everything!"

"This damn guy, I thought he was a good guy and a big hero, and it was all his fault??????.

……

The wizards who had recovered from their fears were talking in whispers, converging into a noisy and shrill voice, some of them who couldn't control their emotions and thought they had been deceived,?? He even chose to glare at Clarke. ??????

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense in the midst of this change.

"Deputy Director Brian, what exactly is the situation of this matter, it remains to be investigated??"

Minister Tomitey's face became extremely ugly, and the word "deputy director" was bitten extremely hard.

However, the deputy director of Brian seemed unaware of the disturbance he had caused, and a formulaic smile of hypocrisy was squeezed out of his young face, but there was not the slightest smile in his vicissitudes of life.

"Ah, Minister, I know, so we're just asking him and his little girlfriend to go back and investigate." Brian's words didn't make Fudge's face much better.

Clark looked at him, then at the deputy director of the Department of Mysteries who was standing aside with a fake smile on his face, and several thoughts turned in his heart, and there was a hint of playfulness in his eyes.

At this time, Deputy Director Brian didn't seem to have any intention of giving up after making Clark deflated.

"Ah, by the way, just in case there is another accident, Mr. Prewitt, unfortunately we have to take back the time-turner from you and your friends first."

"Brian!"

McGonagall seemed to be somewhat familiar with the deputy director, and couldn't help but argue with Clark about the time-turner, saying that Clark was really an exemplary student.

The smile on Brian's face seemed to become more sincere when Professor McGonagall spoke, but he still smiled and did not let go.

"Dean, we are not saying that this Mr. Prewett is not a good student, but you should be considerate of our difficulties.

You know, there aren't a few of these things left even in the Department of Mysteries, and we need to make sure they're safe. ”

"And ......"

Looking at Professor McGonagall's unconvinced look, Brian said with some meaning.

"This little gentleman is breaking the rules...... As far as I know, in our limited surveillance, we found that Mr. Prewitt's use of the time converter is a bit unexpectedly frequent...... There are several inconsistencies between this and the weekly diary you reported to me......"

He looked at Clark and said, "Curiosity about time is appreciated, but it is also extremely dangerous......"

Professor McGonagall glared at Clark fiercely, and stopped talking.

Clark narrowed his eyes as he looked at the deputy director who seemed to be swearing not to give up until he got the time converter, and then handed him the two time converters wrapped around his wrist.

Among them, the time turner with the Sands of Time still belongs to Hermione, and the other time turner, which is already empty, belongs to Clark.

Brian saw the empty little hourglass, and the smile on his lips curled wider, and the faces of Professor McGonagall, Minister Fudge, and others became even more ugly.

"Mr. Prewitt, I remember that there should be three to four hours of the Sands of Time in this time turner that belongs to you......"

Brian brought the empty time-turner to his eyes so that everyone could see it better.

However, before he could continue, Headmaster Dumbledore, who had been silent beside him, played with the wand in his hand at this time, and suddenly spoke.

"I think the most important thing at the moment is to evacuate all the tourists in this small world first, right, Connelly?"

Cornelius Fudge was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and nodded busily.

Brian was interrupted by this, and it was not good to continue, after all, he might not be able to give the Minister and Professor McGonagall face, but Dumbledore ......

But he's willing to give up, and Clark isn't a bully.

A small deputy director of the Department of Mysterious Affairs, in this public, dares to lose his face, if he doesn't go back, I'm afraid that people will think that he is only an orphan in the Puwitt family to bully.

So Clark didn't care about Brian's attitude just now, and said directly to Fudge: "Minister, just now in the dragon farm, a group of werewolves launched an attack on us, especially the alchemy props used by the other party, which are very similar to the handiwork of American wizards......"

Since you don't want me to be better, then I won't let you have a better time.

Combined with his own knowledge of Fudge, Clark has long seen that this guy is a very poor politician.

If you have to make an analogy, it is Yuan Shao in the Three Kingdoms - fierce and timid, scheming and indecisive; Do big things and spare your life, and forget your life when you see small profits.

With his ingenuity, of course, it can be seen that Brian seems to have some reason to deal with Fudge, so he still stood up to give him eye medicine even though he knew that Clark and Fudge had a good relationship.

And this Fudge, after receiving his political donation, and the personal relationship between the two parties is not bad, but he still looks on the sidelines and does not contribute.

Whether it was because of Dumbledore's scruples, wanting to weaken the academy, or because of other special considerations, deliberately indulging Brian, it was not something Clark could allow.

So he deliberately involved the American wizarding world.

As the British Minister for Magic, once this attack involved other countries, especially American wizards, one of the best forces in the world, the nature of the matter completely changed.

The scope of its involvement, the great impact it causes, and the complexity of the personnel involved are definitely not something that a few of them can solve with their mouths here.

People like Fudge don't have the courage and ability to solve this matter, and if he doesn't want to offend the Magic Congress of the United States and cause bigger problems, he can only suppress this matter.

Really......

"Oh, Clark, Dumbledore is right, the most important thing at the moment is to deal with the scene first, this will be said when we go back to the ministry, you say yes, Albus!"

Fudge's face was no longer looking at it this time, but one of horror, his eyes widened, and his right hand seemed to want to be raised, covering Clark's mouth tightly.

Brian also seemed to be taken aback by his bold statement, and couldn't help but open his mouth to scold him, but was pulled by the quick-eyed Fudge.

Then the Minister of Magic turned his supplicating gaze to Dumbledore.

It's a pity that he made another mistake this time, maybe he thought that everyone was like him, they would consider the so-called big picture, they would weigh the pros and cons, and they would not dare to conflict with the increasingly powerful American wizarding world.

But what kind of person is Dumbledore, he really underestimated the old headmaster, underestimated his firm belief in his own path, underestimated his "love" for the children, for this school!

This is just like when Yuan Shao thought that everyone was eyeing the Jiangshan Sheji of the Han Dynasty, but he didn't expect that there would be such a guy as Cao Cao, who wanted to engrave the words "The Tomb of Cao Hou, the General of the Han Dynasty's Expedition to the West" on the tombstone after his death.

Dumbledore could not allow anyone to try to disrupt their plans and interfere with their development by harming the students of Hogwarts, which was absolutely unforgivable.

So Fudge saw Dumbledore in a state of rage for the first time, and Clark finally understood why the British wizarding community did not maintain a certain influence in the face of the full rise of the United States like their Muggle nation.

"Connelly, this is not a trivial matter!"

At this time, Dumbledore's eyes were burning and glowing, yes, it was not an adjective, there was really a blue light coming out of his eyes, radiating an indescribable power, one could even feel the aura of power that enveloped him.

At the same time, with his angry voice, thunder sounded in the sky of the small world at the right time, and thick dark clouds also gathered above his head, flickering with fine electric light.

Faced with Dumbledore in this state, Fudge had to take half a step back.

"Hey, Albus, of course I know it's not a trivial matter, but since it's serious, we can't be hasty."

Dumbledore seemed to listen to him, and began to gradually gather the strength of his anger

But Clark wasn't going to end there, so he continued, "Thankfully, with the help of the Time Turner, all of those werewolves were subdued by me and my friends, and not a single child was harmed. ”

Seeing that Clark was not ready to give up, Fudge could only pull Brian while pinching his nose and praised: "That's really great, Clark, you are really good, and the use of this time turner is also reasonable." ”

He just wanted the little guy in front of him to shut his mouth quickly, so no matter what Clark said, he nodded in appreciation.

Fortunately, Clark was mainly targeting Brian, and didn't really want to tear his face with Fudge, the Minister of Magic, so he waved his hand casually after the other party softened.

Neville, who was on the side, saw his movements, and instantly understood what he meant, and hurriedly went down to call for someone to bring the captured werewolves over.

"It's Greyback, the evil werewolf leader!"

"And those ......"

Someone in the crowd recognized the first corpse they carried, and although he had been burned out of his internal organs and brain by Neville's dragon flames, his strong vitality still allowed him to maintain his outward appearance.

And after knowing that this was the notorious werewolf leader, some of the wizard parents present hurriedly hugged their children tightly in their arms.

Thinking that their children were at risk of being bitten by werewolves before, these guys were extremely afraid, and at the same time, their perception of Clark and others who defeated the werewolves also changed greatly, and their hearts changed from complaining to gratitude.

At least the accident that Clark made is still excusable.

"Clark, since these werewolves have also been caught, I think it is better to take them back to the Ministry of Magic first, and we can interrogate them properly."

Fudge leaned over to Clarke's side and whispered.

"Ah, don't worry, this should be your credit, you will definitely not be able to run, but this matter has a very bad impact on the school and this dragon farm, you see......"

Clark glanced at him and burst into a laugh, which forced Fudge to grin awkwardly.

"Of course, the minister said so, so I have to give you a face, don't worry, I will cooperate with the investigation of the ministry."

"That's good, that's good......"

Fudge raised his right hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

At his signal, the Ministry of Magic employees who had arrived with him hurriedly stepped forward and arrested all the werewolves, whether they were dead or alive.

And after taking control of the scene, they also began to guide the wizard visitors one by one, through the gate of the space, to leave the ruined Fire Dragon Park in an orderly manner.

"Eh, why is it sunny again?" Neville was not far from the gate, watching the tourists pass by one by one, when he suddenly glanced up at the sky and asked Clark curiously.

As the saying goes, the speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional, and Professor Flitwick next to them glanced at the sky when he heard this, and then his eyes widened, as if he had seen some incredible scene.

Clark noticed that Brian, who was not far away, seemed to hear their conversation, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes, and his heart moved, and he also looked to the sky.

I saw that in the sky of this small world, the dark clouds that had just gathered because of Headmaster Dumbledore's anger had all disappeared at this moment, revealing the sun hanging high in the western sky behind him.

Wait, the sun! or hang in the western heavens.

Clarke suddenly noticed the difference, the sun hanging in the sky of this dragon farm was not a real sun, but an alchemical object built by magic, similar to an electric lamp.

It was designed by wizards to adjust its brightness according to the rise and fall of the sun outside.

At the same time, this huge space opened up by the Traceless Stretching Spell and the Magic Array is also free of natural phenomena such as wind, rain, thunder and lightning, whether it is windy or rainy, it is also simulated by wizards using magic.

So this whole dragon farm, to put it bluntly, is just a huge magic greenhouse, but it is a little more intelligent, a little larger, and a little more magical.

Now, it seems to be a little different, not only does it have a sun that changes its position, but it can also generate various meteorological environments according to the environment, which seems to be ......

"Clark, this seems like the one you told me earlier, the ...... That 'secret realm' is very similar. Hermione tugged at his sleeve and whispered.

Professor Flitwick, who was a small man on the side, jumped up excitedly.

"Yes! Yes! Secret Place, Miss Granger, this is a secret place! ”
