"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

At this moment, the wizards on the outskirts of Gringotts Bank were pushed away, and Scrimgeour walked in from the crowd with a patrol of Aurors.

The Auror Office's chief of staff, with a pair of sharp eyes in the situation on the field, pondered for a moment, and asked in a tone that was different from his usual straightforward style, "Director Harris, do you know what's going on here?"

"The Department of Magical Law Enforcement is on business..."Lunn's gaze swept over the vigilant patrol Aurors, "Director Scrimgeour... I don't remember telling you to come. ”

"Wait... Director Harris—" Scrimgeour glanced around, he quickly took a few steps closer to Lenn, covered his lips with his hand, and whispered, "Director Harris, I know you're here to retrieve the Horcrux of the Mystery Man... But I don't think we can just force our way into Gringotts...", he turned his head to look at the elves and lowered his voice a little, "We can do everything we can to capture a Lestrange dark wizard and use him to negotiate with the elves... This way, the elves also have a reason to compromise and not break their own rules. ”

"Now that Lestrange has run away with the mysterious man without a trace, how can you make sure you can find one?" Lunn also moved closer in the direction of Scrimthour, and explained in a deep voice, "But the Horcruxes in Gringotts must be disposed of as soon as possible, since the mysterious man already knows that we are looking for his Horcruxes, then sooner or later he will find a way to transfer the contents away, if he wants to find it again, it will not be so easy..."

"I understand, but—" Scrimgeour shook his head, "Director Harris, the consequences of a conflict with the elves are no less than those caused by the mysterious people, think of the rebellion that the elves started before..." ”

"That's not something you're supposed to think about as the head of the Auror Office. Lunn's tone was also a little tougher, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, "When did the Auror Office, a subordinate agency of the Ministry of Magic's Department of Magical Law Enforcement, start teaching the Department of Magical Law Enforcement in turn?"

"I'm sorry Director..."Seeing that Lunn couldn't be persuaded to persuade him, Scrimgeour raised his lion-like head, "This is the duty of the Patrol Aurors, who patrol Diagon Alley and maintain peace and tranquility in the area... If someone wants to break into something by force against the rules, we patrol the Aurors to stop it. ”

"So, is the head of the Auror Office planning to disobey? Are you going to oppose the Ministry of Magic to arrest the Dark Lord?" Lenn said softly, slowly, but the sense of oppression he brought to Scrimgeour was very strong.

"I'm not disobedient, I'm all dedicated to fighting dark wizards!But if the Department of Magical Law Enforcement wants to go in and search, ask the Director to show a valid ID from the Ministry of Magic. Scrimgeour accentuated, his brown hair shaking, "If the Director has any objections, we can go back to the Ministry of Magic for a meeting to discuss..."

Scrimgeour also let it go, he didn't think it was a matter of right or wrong, but if Harris really broke into Gringotts so unscrupulously, in addition to the goblins, this was also a provocation to the pure-blood family with a vault inside, and the consequences were more terrible than a Dark Lord who didn't dare to return to England - he even suspected that Harris's goal was that he was disobedient and wanted to remove him from the position of head of the Auror Office.

Several well-dressed wizards also squeezed in from the crowd of onlookers, angrily refuting.

"We strongly oppose any organization or individual using any means to encroach upon or destroy our private property, and the right to private property is sacred and inviolable. ”

"You don't have the right to come to Gringotts and take your personal property, no matter what the reason, this kind of precedent cannot be opened, otherwise the next time the Ministry of Magic will be able to search the private vaults of wizards for various reasons?!"

A short-haired blonde witch and a bucktoothed wizard sang and said excitedly—they were Annette Bobin and Marcus Flint.

Lunn recognized the identities of the two men, and he lifted his gold-rimmed glasses, glanced at the smiling tab on his lips, and smiled - the elves had seen that in addition to informing Scrimgeur, it seemed that they had also seized the time to comrade the pure-blood wizard.

"For Merlin's sake, let me in..."

The voice of a wizard came again, and it took a long time for the owner of the voice to stagger in from the crowd, and everyone found out that he was Ben Boss, the patriarch of the Birdsted family, whose daughter was expelled from Hogwarts last year, and the family was forever rejected by Hogwarts - his former close comrade-in-arms Paul Greengrass, after the last meeting of the school board, seemed to have compromised with Harris because of his daughter's illness, so he did not trouble Harris throughout the summer as before.

"Whew... If the safety of our private property cannot be guaranteed... Call... That's insecure. If the Ministry of Magic approves of such an act, then in the long run, I will transfer my assets to other countries..."Ben Bossed threatened with some breathlessness.

However, this caused some laughter in the crowd below, the Persid family had already put their investments abroad under Harris's suppression and exclusion, and it was a well-known fact that their daughter Millicent was forced to borrow the relationship of former Hogwarts Headmaster Dumbledore to Beauxbatons, France, as a transfer student.

"If I'm right as I remember, the vault doesn't necessarily have to be there in person, as Mrs. Weasley and the boy who had helped the Potters get the money. Lunn didn't bother with the pure-bloods, but instead said a reason that wasn't justified, "So Gringotts won't support and lead the way in fighting the Dark Lord when there is such a precedent?"

Seeing that the crowd of onlookers was increasing, the previous goblins looked at each other and were forced to walk out.

"Director Harris, your family is also a Gringotts user... What should be clear is... Depending on the size of the vault itself, there is also a difference in the level of security. Of all the vaults, the largest and best-protected vaults belong to the oldest wizarding families, located on the deepest level, and the closer you get to the ground, the smaller the vaults become, with fewer security measures. The deep vault needs the goblin to touch the vault door to open, while the shallow vault only needs a key... According to the agreement, the average shallow user will not need too much service in this regard. The goblin took out the rules that all wizards knew and said, "Of course, if Director Harris can get permission from the members of the Lestrange family, then he can indeed enter the Lestrange family's vault like Mrs. Weasley..."

"Director Harris, if you have to force your way into Gringotts and take away property that does not belong to you, Gringotts will suspend payments and savings deposits and withdrawals in order to protect the legitimate interests of your customers and to protect Gringotts' reputation. The goblin Ra Ring's swarthy face was very serious, and his pointed beard curled up with his words, "And the matter of establishing a branch in the Hogwarts Extension that we Elves and Umbrella and Hogwarts discussed before was in an unstable situation, and the elves did not have the energy to protect the two banks at this moment, and they might have to give up, and the merchants in the business district who were designing and planning could only suffer and run back and forth to Diagon Alley." ”

Now that there are patrolling the Aurors and pure-blood families, these goblins have begun to pull ordinary wizards into the water, knowing that Harris will not dare to continue to act arrogantly in this situation, and he has made up his mind that Harris must act and have some scruples, and cannot give the other party the idea of another time to raid.

And this threat of the goblin did make many onlookers start to change their attitude of not caring about themselves, and a burst of discussion broke out- Most of the shallow vaults owned by ordinary wizarding families were more common gold galleons and the like, and they wouldn't have the family history and financial resources to have those dangerous goods that made the Ministry of Magic worth checking like those ancient pure-blood families, but now the threat of the goblins made them realize the reality, if the elves were really provoked, even if not to the level of rebellion recorded in the history of magic, it would make them ordinary people uneasy.

"And the Ministry of Magic can today use the pretext of fighting the Dark Lord to freely explore a family's vaults and take personal belongings that do not belong to the Ministry of Magic... Then there is no guarantee that the Ministry of Magic will not use similar reasons to take away other things in the future. ”

"What if the Ministry of Magic later recognizes the Golden Galleon as contraband? I mean, with today's precedent, will they use this money to fund the Dark Lord in the future?"

Bobin and Flint seized the time to speak with a rhythm.

These threats succeeded in making it impossible for even those who were originally supportive of Harris's actions against the Dark Lord to stand their ground.

"Director Harris, anyway, now the Dark Lord doesn't dare to go back to the UK..."

"Actually, the Ministry of Magic could find a Lestrange house to open the door, so that both sides have a reasonable reason. ”

"Gringotts isn't the International Confederation of Wizards after all, and the Federation was at fault before... We can't be so arrogant. ”

At this time, Lunn seemed to have given in to these fierce resistances, and he reluctantly raised his arm to the armed Aurors behind him, and then began to withdraw outside Gringotts.

It's just that when he was leaving, his voice was angry, which was different from his usual calm style, and the outermost wizards could clearly hear his words: "Gringotts's behavior seems to protect personal rights, but in fact, you goblins are sheltering mysterious people... His Horcrux is there, and because of your protection, it cannot be destroyed... It is true that my brother's protection has not been compromised in England, but the Dark Lord is wreaking havoc in Europe, and your actions are tantamount to murder!"
