Hermione, Be the Minister of Magic with Me!

Chapter 99

why? Son is gone!

For a family, the most important thing is inheritance, and the so-called inheritance is, to put it bluntly, children.

Among the Sacred Twenty-Eight Pure Bloods today, the Gaunt family is gone, and the Prewett family has also been killed by the Death Eaters. These two families are already doomed.

And death eaters like the Black family and the Lestrange family came out. Although they have not yet broken, their only heirs are either imprisoned for life in Azkaban, or if they are caught, they will be sentenced to capital punishment. When it comes to having a child, it can be said that it is almost the same as breaking it and not breaking it.

With Barty Crouch Jr. "dead" and Mr. Crouch's wife also passing away, the Crouch family will be completely cut off after Barty Crouch's death in a few decades. Even if he saves a lot of money, he will be cheaper for outsiders in the future.

In Fudge's view, Crouch had no choice but to adopt one.

It is precisely because they knew that Crouch's heart knot could not be resolved, so the other two did not choose to sprinkle salt on his wound at this time.

Others don't know, but Lockhart knows very well that his boss is still keeping his son in his house and imprisoning him with the Imprisonment Curse. It's probably too early to say anything desperate.

After everyone was silent for a while, Mr. Crouch finally opened his mouth again: "Gidro, I have something to trouble you." He seemed a little serious.

Lockhart was a little surprised, because he had never seen Crouch begging: "Please say."

"You're going to make Hogsmeade a resort for everyone, including Muggles, to recuperate, aren't you?" Crouch asked.

"Yes, I do have this idea. We can't just sit back and let these facilities go to waste, right?" Lockhart thought he wanted to question his own ideas.

"Why don't you invite a group of people to try Ruyu Ke before introducing Muggles?" Crouch suddenly had an idea.

"How to say?"

"As you know, there are some old guys like me in the Ministry of Magic, and most of us are about to retire, but our hometown is scattered all over the UK, and it is very troublesome to get together and read. I want to invite people during the off-season. Come and live in Hogsmeade for a while, get together by the way, and try to form a routine..."

Lockhart couldn't understand why Crouch seemed hesitant to say this, because it seemed to him to be a perfectly normal request.

"Of course, it's an honor." Lockhart glanced at Fudge next to him. "I think I should have respect for the old man who is about to retire."

Hearing that Crouch seemed to want to retire, the joy on Fudge's face was almost unbearable.

If Crouch, the biggest political enemy, chooses to retire at this time, what opponent does he have at the Ministry of Magic?

"That's right. Gilderoy, we shouldn't just do things for money, and occasionally think about how to console those who have worked for the wizarding world all their lives," Fudge said hurriedly.

In his opinion, this is Crouch's "asking price" to himself - as long as Fudge can give him a satisfactory retirement package, then he is willing to take a back seat and let Fudge monopolize power in the Ministry of Magic.

What's not to say about this?

Fudge now only hopes to quickly meet Crouch's offer, and then use the honor of hosting the World Cup and the Triwizard Tournament to let the Ministry of Magic change his name from top to bottom.

Lockhart feigned hesitation: \"You mean? To build a retiree's villa in Hogsmeade? But then, will people complain that we waste tax money?"

"Not at all, how could this be..."

Fudge was about to continue, but Crouch declined: "There is no need to

Yes, we buy the land and the house ourselves, I just need a clean place...hope the Ministry of Magic will have an open space in the planning. "

\"No problem." Fudge de Lockhart decided.

Seeing Crouch looking at him again, Lockhart also nodded: "You can choose the open space behind the Pig's Head Bar."

"Thanks, I'll probably move here recently." Lockhart was a little surprised by what Crouch said.

\"Come here recently?"

Crouch replied with a deadpan expression: "Yes, the fresh air of Hogsmeade will help me, and when the Triwizard Tournament is over, I will retire."

Lockhart became suspicious. Mr. Crouch was less than sixty this year, which is the golden age of a politician, but he is actually going to retire?

"Would you like to get a VIP card for you in the public bath?" he asked.

"No need." Crouch rejected Lockhart's "good intentions", "I never show my body in public."

Lockhart got it, totally got it.

P.So Sunday py time

"What happened to the dragon? Single for a long time, still the same strategy”

Introduction: Because of being too strong, the hero Xilin's mother has been single for 26 years, perhaps because she has been single for too long, and the evil dragon entrenched in the green hills has become more beautiful in her eyes.

In order not to die alone and widowed, Xilin decided to pretend to lose to the evil dragon entrenched on the green hill, and give the dragon a chance to be her man.

If the dragon doesn't follow... hum. o... hit him until he surrenders oo...

Reborn as a black dragon, Caesar has two dreams.

1: Marry Cuihua, who lives on the hill next door, as his wife. (Cuihua is a frost dragon).

2: Before 5,000 years old, let Cuihua on the hill next door give birth to two cute baby dragons.

On this day, when Caesar was going to confess to Cuihua on the mountain next door, a woman with a big sword blocked his way.

\"Dragon, I want you to be my man!"

Black Dragon Caesar: ? (.)

Chapter 211 Don't Play War Movies

After the staff of the Ministry of Magic finished talking about the business, they entered the most relaxing time for men - bragging time.

At this time, all men are gods who point the world, and everything in the world can't be said.

Because Gemma Farley was also from a pure-blood family, several people did not avoid her when they talked.

She also knew that Lockhart arranged for her to sit in, reminding her to let her father prepare early, and she would like to accept this.

But Lockhart didn't know that the pure-blood family began to buy the land and houses in Hogsmeade very early. Gemma said that "half of the pure-blood family has a stake in it", but not only

just say

Otherwise, after confirming that Lockhart "knows", how could it be so simple when he wants to buy some spare land? The average person spends more than half a year just wrangling with the residents.

In this way, without Lockhart's knowledge, Gemma did him a big favor, so she naturally wanted to see if her choice was wrong.

It is said that people tell the truth after drinking, and the literacy that a person shows after drinking too much is also the purpose of her investigation.

It turned out she was satisfied.

None of the three men present had the heart to pay attention to the thought of the only lady present, and were still talking.

Lockhart did not forget his role even in small talk, and he deserved as much compliments as he did to make fun of him. Even Crouch, who didn't like talking very much, was led by him to participate in two topics. As if born to do this

White spoon - kind.

Before, Gemma actually didn't believe that there were so-called "perfect" people in this world, but now she began to doubt it.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lockhart invited the minister to go to the movies with Crouch, and Biepage went to the bath to take a bath in the evening, thus ending the perfect day.

His motion was passed immediately—because neither Fudge nor Crouch had seen the so-called movie before.

But when they saw the Terminator played by Schwarzenegger in the movie, they were still surprised by the special effects on the Muggle side.

Killer robots from the future, exploding trucks, exciting gun battles, and all kinds of modern killers... These things undoubtedly caused a greater shock to the wizard.

"Oh... will Muggles have the ability to travel through time in the future?" Fudge asked, dumbfounded.

Maybe. ' Lockhart said vaguely.

It would be nice to scare wizards once in a while, at least to make them less contemptuous of Muggles, he said.

Sure enough, Fudge woke up quite a bit: "It's still very... troublesome to do that, oh - God, why can a tin can cause such a big explosion?"

"It's gunpowder," Lockhart replied immediately.

"You mean that kind of stuff that mixes charcoal, sulfur, and toilet soil?" Fudge said in disbelief. "Our Spell Experiment Committee has already tried it, and that stuff isn't very powerful."

"...they've changed the recipe long ago," Lockhart explained. "Muggles, like wizards, are always creative in slaughtering their own kind. "

"Unbelievable, no wonder Grindelwald was so..." Fudge sighed repeatedly.

Lockhart looked around and found that the wizards present tended to be a little scared.

-In the beginning, when the governor on the screen showed his upper body and faced the camera and said, "Take off your clothes and give it to me", the witches present gave out bursts of irrepressible satisfaction.

But when he showed the metallic luster on his face, oiled his limbs with oil, and then carried all kinds of black iron pipes to set fire and blast around, blowing people to pieces, the witches couldn't laugh anymore-because it was really horrible.

The car he was in when chasing the protagonist, and the voice change when he deceived the heroine also left a deep impression on the wizards - this is undoubtedly a small "spoiler" of Muggle warfare technology

As a result, at the end of the film, Lockhart changed his previous thoughts and had to repeatedly declare that it was a "science fiction" movie, and the "Terminator" was actually a normal actor, just wearing makeup, and except for those Firearms, vehicles, "Terminator T-800" and "traveling between black inches" are all technologies that Muggles predict they will have in the future.

"...That said, these technologies don't exist yet, and there's a good chance they won't happen," Lockhart clarified.

But this remark did not bring much comfort to the wizards, even if in addition to Lockhart, there are some young wizards from Muggle families who are also explaining to their comrades what a "science fiction movie" is.

"In other words, those things called \"machine guns\' are real? ' someone immediately asked back.

o Regrettably, yes. ' Lockhart shrugged.

"What about the big tube that's on the shoulder and can shoot rockets?"

\"It's also true."

"Doesn't that mean that there are Muggles at any time when we don't need the Protection Charm?

Carrying a thing like that and blasting our village to smithereens? "

o Probably not, destroying us wouldn't do them any good, and besides, the Ministry of Magic will keep everyone safe, and we're "secret" to Muggles right now," Lockhart had to explain again.

The person who asked the question rolled his eyes and suddenly thought of another question: "Those Muggle weapons... In the movie I watched, they were actually sold in stores, right? How much?"

Lockhart was amazed at the man's ability to infer other things: "A machine gun that can fire is about a thousand dollars, which is less than 100 Galleons."

"Is it less than 100 Galleons?"

"Yeah, if you pay cash, there should be bullets."

Now the wizard can't calm down even more: "Do Muggles have so many guns?"

Lockhart tilted his head slightly, looking a little confused: how to say it? In a few days I will show you a Muggle war movie to show you the war between Muggles..."

\"Stop!" Fudge and Crouch shouted hastily.

Fudge dragged Lockhart away from the screen, his voice short and full of horror: "You are crazy, how can you play that kind of thing? Grindelwald used this to terrorize people all over Europe!"

Lockhart would like to say that I think this is very good, at least it can make the wizards realize how huge the gap between the war potential between the two sides is, so that there will always be people who think that they can control the numbness with little tricks such as Imperius Curse and Apparition. Melon world.

It's a bit harsh to say, even if the Downing Street people die, this state machine can still win the war for Muggles, not to mention that there are a large number of Muggle-born wizards in the wizarding world, and their positions are also very questionable, Lockhart I will never allow them to harm their own family.

That's why Voldemort made the principle that "to fight against foreigners must first be safe inside", to get all Muggles out first.

During this period, he only dared to do things like blow up two bridges to "make a sense" to the Muggles, and just give the pure-blooded wizards an explanation.

Because he knew that if the "Mudbloods" were notified of the changes in the wizarding world on the Muggle side before the new order was established, he could only lose.

But after looking at Fudge's face, Lockhart decided that it would be better not to go against the other party's wishes.

"Okay Minister, just do it." Lockhart agreed, "No war movies.

No, every time we play a movie in the future, we should review it first, and then play it after passing the qualification. If necessary, we should cut some more..."

Fudge seems to have finally realized how stupid the movie is - its effect on the cultural level is really big.

"Let's go and take a shower." Crouch came over to smooth things out.

Chapter 212 Dumbledore's Achievements

In the days after Fudge and the others visited Hogsmeade, both Hogwarts and Hogsmeade seemed calm and nothing major happened.

Aside from the portrait at the entrance to the Gryffindor lounge - Sir Cadogan's frequent password changes were annoying to everyone.

"I really can't take it anymore," Ron complained. "Black is not stupid. He knows that if he disturbs the professors, he will definitely not use the same method to enter the castle next time. That guy Cadogan is a complete blocker. ."

Of course Ron was complaining for a reason, because he forgot his password again.

- Change the password more than ten times in a week, who can stand it.

"You can follow me, write the password on a piece of paper, and then read it before entering the lounge - just look at it." Neville Longbottom suggested to them.

"Yeah, but where's the paper on which you wrote the password?" Ron asked rhetorically.

Neville felt all over his body, then let out a groan.

"Oops, I forgot my password paper in the bedroom."

The people waiting outside the door were speechless.
