077 Escaped
"Poof... These wizards have so big brains that they actually think of Voldemort escaping to the New World. But... The U.S. actually believed Erickson's doomsday prophecy, and began to recruit troops for the future. I have to be careful when I go to the United States. ”
William muttered to himself.
Although John and Amelia spoke in a very small voice, he could hear the conversation clearly with Mark One.
For the New World, the Magical Congress of the United States made a series of preparations because of Erickson's prophecy. William, who is in England, is now powerless.
His main goal at the moment is to destroy the time turners stored in the Magical Congress of America and the United Ministry of Magic of South America, and he has no time or energy to take care of other things.
"Captain John, the mystery man is dead. Don't think about it again. ”
Amelia's brow furrowed after listening to John's speculation, so that the already obvious nasolabial folds condensed on both sides of her eyes like a spider's web, and her cold light was like a sharp blade, warning John that he should not mention the name.
"Yes! Director Burns, I was reckless. ”
Captain John took two steps back and bowed apologetically to Amelia. Although the mysterious man has been dead for 11 years, the fear of him is like a gloomy dark cloud hanging over the heads of many people, lingering.
Especially recently, the news that the mysterious man is about to return has begun to circulate, which makes the wizards who fought on the front line of the fight against Voldemort more and more uneasy.
Rumble!
"Director Bones, Captain John, the iron railing is up."
Just as Amelia was about to warn John to be cautious in his words and actions in the future, the iron bars blocking all the passages began to rise slowly.
Parker, who was standing by the golden gate, saw this and hurriedly waved to his captain and immediate superior.
"Looks like Secretary Fudge has come over. Let's wait for him here. ”
As soon as Amelia spoke, a black and round figure and a tall and strong gray figure appeared in front of the two of them at the same time.
"What's going on? Minister Burns! ”
Minister Fudge stared at Amelia with an ugly expression, the suppressed majesty of his body indicating that he was very angry now.
As the highest leader of the Ministry of Magic, he sensed it as soon as the Ministry's defense system was activated. However, he happened to be attending a dinner party with Headmaster Dumbledore, so he was delayed for some time.
And now, when he appeared in the hall with Dumbledore, he found that the head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement was also there, and he asked dissatisfied.
A high-ranking leader who is in the Ministry of Magic can also activate the most powerful defense system of the Ministry of Magic, which he does not understand very much.
"Headmaster Dumbledore, good evening."
Amelia took John and politely greeted the most powerful wizard in the wizarding world before she turned her gaze to her minister.
"I've just arrived, too. Before he could get inside, the defenses were activated. However, John has a clue here. ”
"Lord Minister, Headmaster Dumbledore. As I entered the hall with my men, an intruder suddenly appeared. After a tough battle, we were able to push the intruder back. But when we were ready to go inside with Director Burns to check the damage, the defense system was activated. ”
When John saw Amelia let him explain, he hurriedly explained what had just happened to Fudge and Dumbledore, but it was indispensable to add fuel to the fire.
After listening to John's account, Fudge's gloomy face didn't know what to think. John and Amelia didn't say anything more when they saw this. Quietly waiting for the instructions of this leader.
"Hmm... Then let's get in. Let's see what's going on. Albus may need your help in a moment. ”
The Ministry of Magic was invaded by a dark wizard, which should have been solved internally by the Ministry of Magic itself. Fudge shouldn't have asked Dumbledore to help, but the Ministry of Magic's defenses hadn't been triggered in over a decade.
Something big must have happened to be triggered now. For this kind of thing, in Fudge's heart, in order to recover the loss, he had to turn to Dumbledore beside him.
He didn't want the imperfect resolution of the matter to affect the election of the next Minister of Magic.
'Damn, why is all this bad stuff happening to me lately?' ’
Fudge still looked gloomy, walking in the front, John looked at Amelia, and seeing that the other party did not react, he followed behind his leader towards the golden gate.
Parker and Joseph, who were in front of the golden door, saw Minister Fudge and Headmaster Dumbledore coming, and hurriedly opened the elevator door and waited for them to enter.
"Dumbledore is here too. It almost scared me to death..."
After watching these people all enter the elevator, William finally took a long breath, and then patted his chest to relieve his fear.
"No, we have to get out of here!"
Seeing that the elevator had begun to descend, William immediately walked towards the phone booth behind him. Dumbledore, the most powerful man in the wizarding world, has already appeared here, and he doesn't dare to stay here any longer.
The time turner and other magical items related to time in the time hall have all been destroyed, and his mission has been completed, so there is no need to stay here any longer.
As with the way he entered, William pulled out the arm of middle-aged Neville again, and after being identified by the phone booth, he escaped from the Ministry of Magic without incident.
After coming to the outside world, William no longer cared about whether he would be discovered, and flew towards his secret base with full horsepower.
......
"Arthur Weasley? What the hell are you doing? ”
The group stood in front of the door of the Hall of Time, watching the scene inside being restrained by the turbulence of time into fireballs. Fudge looked angrily at Arthur Weasley and several other Aurors on duty.
"Minister Fudge, I don't know what's going on. I was just coming back from a trip to store my belongings for today, when I was knocked unconscious in the hallway. Didn't I wake up when you found me, how could I possibly know what was going on..."
Arthur Weasley held the back of his neck with one hand and watched the shocking scene in front of him, a sullen expression on his face in the light of the fire.
All the precious items in the Time Hall were destroyed, and this important accident that has not been encountered in a hundred years was actually bumped into by him.
Arthur Weasley was very depressed at this time, and he had a feeling that he had eaten bitter melon, and he couldn't say that.
And he is also a victim, why did Minister Fudge lecture him, didn't he have a few words with him before. Sure enough, the fat man is cautious, and Arthur is very dissatisfied with Fudge's questioning of himself.
