Chapter 400: The Minister of Magic's Daily Life
Ron immediately began to protest after hearing this: "But I can't hide my family at all, there are so many people, and my father still works in the Ministry of Magic." β
"That's right, so for various reasons, the Aurors don't usually accept people from large families, but Harry does...... I'm sorry Harry, I'm just giving you an example...... A more appropriate Auror like him, who didn't have many relatives, or Hermione, who was born into a small family. "The members of the extended family have complex relationships and are prone to leaking or being coerced, whether by outsiders or their own. β
"Hmm...... I understand. Harry had a faint sadness.
"But for the same reason, the Aurors are really in short supply now, so they can only come and take them. Lockhart shook his head, and led the three of them into the elevator to the Auror office on the second basement floor, "Well, Fifty-three and Fifty-four are your Auror offices." If you need to organize some information about the target dark wizard, or sort out your thoughts, or even just want to take a break or something, you can hide in your office. If you want to talk to your colleagues, play cards, brag or something, go to the lobby. β
"And the thirteenth, don't you explain?"
"Article 13, the guidelines are for reference only, subject to the actual situation......" Lockhart's eyebrows jumped, "I guess this sentence was added by crazy eyes after seeing something very high and amazing, it doesn't make much sense." But he had to say that this sentence embodies the peculiarity of the Auror profession and reminds us to be ready to win at all costs and by all means...... Alas, you should understand it for yourselves. β
"Mad Eye must have seen the ad in the Muggle world...... Many products will be written, the picture is for reference only, and the actual product shall prevail. Hermione couldn't help but laugh, but suddenly remembered that the old Auror they were talking about was no longer there.
"I see. Lockhart nodded in realization: "So, you two should take a good look at the contents of this booklet here...... Or you can do some decoration of your own small room or something, each Auror has absolute power over his own cubicle, as long as it doesn't damage the structure of the cubicle or affect the person next door. You can toss it any way. β
"Okay, can I move a couch?"
"You can move a bed, or even bring Cho here for the night, the Ministry of Magic has everything in its furniture and office supply warehouse. Lockhart shrugged, "It's casual, just don't forget to close the door when you're doing something." β
β......β
"Okay, memorize all the above, when you feel that you have memorized everything, I will investigate. "As long as I feel qualified." You can team up and go out against the Death Eaters. β
"Hmm. β
"Hermione, what about you......" Lockhart looked at his little wife, "come with me to my office, and we do something we love to do?" orβ"
"Don't!" Hermione glared at him angrily, "I'm here watching Harry and Ron, or they're going to be lazy." β
"Well, you two young men, if you don't behave well in front of the minister's wife, don't blame me for deducting your salary. Lockhart admonished with a smile. "Then I'll go back to what I'm supposed to do. β
"Okay, let Hermione accompany us to decorate the office. Ron said nonchalantly, "Let's go see what's in the warehouse first." β

After several people separated. Lockhart travels to the area opened up by the Ministry of Magic for wizards with special identities and need to be protected, and wants to find Pandora. But the little witch still didn't want to see him. Even a few of his relatives didn't give a good face...... Only her brother, who is now the captain of the striker team in the Ministry of Magic, said hello to Lockhart.
Lockhart went to the prisoner's block again, and again, in the name of a separate interrogation, picked a Death Eater and sucked some blood to ensure physical and emotional stability...... Curses don't get worse for no reason, but Lockhart finds that without sucking blood, you can't control the desire to kill and destroy, and if you suck blood, you can't control the urge for pleasure and prostitution.
After insisting on sucking blood every day, although he no longer lost his mind, his energy became a little surprisingly abundant, and even a young and healthy witch like Hermione, who was fully developed, was a little unbearable, and often asked Rao to sleep.
After cleaning the memories of the "food", Lockhart left the cell area and took the elevator up to the minister's office on the basement level. To be honest, after the order of the wizarding world was basically restored and the wizarding law had begun to be implemented, as the Minister of Magic, his affairs began to become less and trivial. He didn't really want to deal with that, and usually left it to Percy to deal with.
The Weasleys had so many children, almost all of them were unambitious optimists, who loved to laugh and laugh, and Percy was a rigid and ambitious man who aimed to become Minister of Magic, and who still worked hard and seemed to take pleasure in dealing with such trivial matters.
Lockhart was very happy with this assistant, and if Hermione was to do this, even if she wanted to, she would still feel sorry for his wife. After sitting down, he picked up the new Daily Prophet and the information provided to him by the Department of Mysteries and leisurely read it.
There are still a lot of criticisms and accusations of himself in the newspaper, and he deliberately allows these things to exist: other people's mouths can't be stopped, so give them some ways to vent, and they will be comfortable after scolding. And in addition to criticism of themselves, it is also an indisputable fact that the lives of many low-level wizards have changed for the better.
The officials of the Ministry of Magic are all their own people, and the low-level wizards get their own benefits...... What can a mid-level wizard do even if he is dissatisfied with himself?
ββ
Lockhart put down the newspaper and picked up the information from the Aurors and the Department of Mysteries.
The British wizarding world is still peaceful, and it has always been like this, even Lockhart began to wonder, could it really be that he scared Voldemort away? Impossible, others can be paralyzed, but he must not let his guard down!
Look at the news from other ministries of magic - German wizards have made a decision on whether it is necessary to amend and relax the restrictions on wizards under the Secrecy Act, and conservatives have narrowly rejected the proposal. Although it was only a trivial matter, if you think about it, maybe the original preparations for the armed intervention of the Ministry of Magic of the Death Eaters by the Ministries of Magic in other countries were all part of Voldemort's plan.
Maybe it's like the trick to lure the Aurors to Hogwarts and then take over the Ministry of Magic: the moment wizarding troops from other countries set foot on British soil, their backyards are being put in the hands of dark wizards who oppose the law of secrecy - after all, the law of secrecy that restricts the behavior of wizards has a large number of opponents in any country, and Voldemort has a lot of potential allies if he has a little contact with these wizards......
Thankfully, the situation in Britain was reversed before this happened.
The Ministries of Magic in France and Ireland condemned Lockhart's aggressive arrest of the wizards involved, demanding that he be tried as soon as possible under the supervision of wizards from other countries, and then release those who did not join the Death Eaters.
Lockhart shook his head helplessly, he really wanted to kill all these Death Eaters, but these Death Eaters had a great influence in the wizarding world, and their relatives and friends were all over Europe, so it was really not easy to do.
Isn't there anything interesting that can make him relax?
