Chapter 58: Tripartite Talks (2)
ps: The last chapter was blocked.,Look at this chapter and you can almost guess what I wrote in the last chapter.。 (laughs)
"Well, it's nice to meet you, Headmaster Dumbledore, and I'll say hello to you." Qingqiu showed great respect when facing the greatest white wizard, and she warmly shook hands with him and conveyed her master's concern for him.
"Hello." The old principal also looked at her with a smile on his face, and then said, "The master hasn't forgotten me?" Yes! Time flies so fast, I remember the last time I met him was in 1981, and twenty years have passed. ”
"Yes sir, thank you for maintaining us in that school of magic and magic potions tournament, and thank you for protecting our wizards in Europe in 1945."
"It's hard for you to remember."
Dumbledore sighed softly and said, "There have been some small changes in England in recent years, maybe I should take some time out of my summer vacation to visit my master." ”
"We are very welcome."
The two exchanged pleasantries for a moment, and then sat down in turn.
Dumbledore was here because he had received a letter from Kingsley.
The letter stated that Fudge was taking Lucius on his way to 'visit' the Muggle Prime Minister.
Take Lucius on a visit...
What the hell was the idea, to visit a Muggle with a former Death Eater.
The old headmaster immediately realized that something might be wrong, and then rushed over in a hurry.
Luckily, though, when he helped Mr. Huck transform Ten, he cut off the Floo network with the Ministry of Magic.
This made him realize it later, but he reached Downing Street before Fudge.
...
Mr. Harker was so excited that as soon as he sat them down, he realized that this was definitely a diplomatic event more important than his trip to the United States last month to meet with the president.
If this meeting is handled well, it will definitely be a major expansion of power for him.
He immediately looked at Berner and said, "Berner, inform Bond and ask him where the demon is hiding now?" ”
"Yes sir!" Berner nodded, then immediately picked up the phone at hand and called the Downing Street Secret Service.
There is a new department there, and permanent agents of the MIC are stationed.
Calling people directly is far more than what you know on the phone.
"How did you get here?"
While waiting for the agents, Dumbledore and Aogaoka had a friendly handover.
"We didn't know much about England, and when I arrived in London, I asked Mr. Ambassador to send me to Downing Street, and I thought we were all the same."
"It's still different." Dumbledore said slowly, "You should go to the Ministry of Magic, didn't the Ministry of Magic of China send a note to the British Ministry of Magic?" ”
"Shangri-La, you forgot." Speaking of Shangri-La, Qingqiu's face suddenly had a hint of excitement.
It's a legendary magic item.
An artifact.
It is located in the Yamen of the Yungui Auxiliary Political Division of Huaguo (Yungui Branch of the Ministry of Magic, Huaguo's name for the Ministry of Magic is the General Road Auxiliary Political Division, and the headquarters is located in the capital. )
It looks like a large prayer wheel, very exquisite, with magic patterns and some birds and beasts engraved on it. In addition, it is decorated with lacquer and color, just like a handicraft.
The whole is divided into three layers, each layer is inlaid with coral, gemstones, etc.
Each of these three layers can be turned.
The upper and middle layers simulate latitude and longitude, and the lower layer simulates height.
With it, you can locate any location in the world, as long as you set it in advance, and touch it to reach it directly when the magic is activated.
Essentially, Shangri is a portkey that can set a location and go anywhere. (Intraterrestrial)
"Oh!" The old headmaster exclaimed, he knew it, and he had used it, twenty years ago, when he led his students to participate in the Potions Tournament hosted by the Japanese magic school, and returned to London.
No wonder the Chinese came so quickly.
He had forgotten about it.
This, which explains why the Ministry of Magic was not informed of their arrival in advance.
"Extraordinary magic items!" Dumbledore sighed again.
This time, Qingqiu did not respond directly, but smiled on his face. It is undoubtedly a great honor to have such a powerful magic prop.
Immediately afterwards, the two sides continued to communicate amicably.
The atmosphere in the office was superb, except for Bernard.
As the Prime Minister's private secretary, he has to keep a record of all the Prime Minister's meetings.
Dumbledore was fine, the lady named Qingqiu Zhang spoke a lot of English that he hadn't heard.
Old English and Arabic wafting out of my mouth from time to time are even more head-wrenching.
Actually, this is not to blame Berner.
Originally, the phrases used between wizards were different from those used by Muggles, and in addition, Qingqiu said that many Chinese professional phrases were transliterated into English, and Berner would be a ghost if he could understand them.
His pain didn't last long, though, as he was soon interrupted by a phone call.
The person who came was from the Downing Street security office, and the security officer said that three suspicious people wanted to break in.
Mr. Bernard was asked if he had instructed them to shoot.
Hearing this, Berner was puzzled at first, you must know that the security personnel of the security department are all elite troops, and they have the right to make decisions on the spot, and there is no need to ask him about shooting.
Immediately afterward, he carefully questioned the security personnel, including how they were dressed or whether they had identified themselves.
After hearing the answer from the other end of the phone that the three of them were wearing robes and similar to Mr. Dumbledore's style just now, Berner immediately realized that these were wizards.
He then hung up and called another of the prime minister's private secretaries and asked them to bring them in.
Less than half a minute.
Fudge and others appeared in the Prime Minister's office.
The moment he walked in, his eyes immediately fell on Dumbledore's body, and that feeling...
There is quite an illusion of catching rape in person.
Large Shura field.
Good! Ok, good, good!
Dumbledore, this guy has betrayed us wizards.
A sneer appeared on Fudge's face, and he watched Dumbledore's eyes grow more and more contemptuous.
And Lucius behind him also looked at Dumbledore's figure in surprise, unlike Fudge, his face was more of a joke.
If the Hogwarts Board knew that his Headmaster's position was in Muggle favor, then he wouldn't be in a good position!
"Albus!" Fudge looked at him coldly, then walked in front of him.
"I wonder when you had such a strong friendship with a Muggle Prime Minister?"
"Oh!" The old headmaster looked at him blankly, and said in a soft and long tone, "Mr. Huck has provided us with a lot of useful information especially for the Ministry of Magic. ”
"I think it should be good for us to maintain a good relationship between the two sides! Connelly. ”
"Humph!"
Fudge snorted.
Then his eyes widened suddenly.
At this moment, he finally got rid of the influence that Dumbledore had been having on him.
He roared, "Don't forget, I'm the Minister of Magic, and I have the final say on whether or not to cooperate with Muggles!" ”
