​​

It didn't take long for the dinner to be served one by one, roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, grilled small quail, pan-fried plaice fillet, creamy truffle bisque, flounder with lobster mousse, various The dishes filled the table quickly.

​​

This is a bit too luxurious for a family dinner, and Ethan pretended to be flattered.

​​

Seeing Ethan's appearance, Fudge showed a satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth.

​​

Andrea went downstairs and appeared in front of Ethan again. The difference from just now was that Andrea was holding a thick stack of photos and a few notebooks, "Mr. Ethan, you must Help me sign a few names one by one"

​​

"Not now! Andrea! Hurry up and sit down to eat!" Mrs. Parkinson reminded Andrea again angrily.

​​

Andrea pursed her lips, put a stack of photos beside her, and sat on a chair.

​​

The dinner went very smoothly. Mrs. Parkinson's craftsmanship was very good, and the Dongzhidong red wine that Ethan brought as a gift was well received by everyone.

​​

Andrea kept asking Ethan what happened that night, but Mrs. Parkinson didn't stop her, so Ethan had to re-phrase what happened that night.

​​

Andrea regretted that Ethan didn't beat Moody, and she didn't know where Moody got her off.

​​

Andrea, who was fascinated by Ethan's story, drank a few more glasses of red wine without knowing it, which made Andrea's face a seductive red, and made her not add a bit of different charm. .

​​

Even Ethan was a little surprised, and looked at Fudge and Andrea suspiciously again. It was unbelievable that Fudge's genes could give birth to such a beautiful daughter.

​​

As the dinner drew to a close, Ethan repeatedly praised Mrs. Parkinson's craftsmanship, and Mrs. Parkinson smiled and thanked Ethan for her praise.

​​

"Ethan, can we talk?" Fudge said suddenly.

​​

Ethan knew that the main dish might be coming up tonight, so he nodded and agreed to Fudge's request.

​​

Andrea and Mrs Parkinson have left at some point, leaving a quiet space for Fudge and Ethan.

​​

"Mr. Ethan, young talents like you really shouldn't be buried here." Fudge put his hand on the dining table and tapped the table with his fingers.

​​

"I wonder if you are interested in joining the Ministry of Magic one by one?" Fudge stared at Ethan's eyes, and the atmosphere at the scene was a little frozen.

​​

"Then what exactly should I do?" Ethan asked, trying to figure out what Fudge's purpose was to win over him.

​​

Seeing that Ethan didn't reject him directly, Fudge seemed to relax a little.

​​

"The incident in Knockturn Alley showed the lack of the Ministry of Magic's security force, so the Ministry of Magic decided to set up a new rapid response team to prevent such incidents from happening again." Fudge said seriously.

​​

"After I investigated the whole incident at Knockturn Alley, I felt that it was suitable for you to be the captain." Fudge said.

​​

"The name of this rapid response team is the Magic Crisis Response Team, which is under the Department of Magic Law Enforcement, but it has the ability to act directly without notifying the Department of Magic Law Enforcement when necessary. Funds for this team's activities are also directly funded by the Ministry of Magic. Issued without going through the Division of Magical Law Enforcement"

​​

Ethan was a little surprised. Fudge did show full sincerity this time, and even made Ethan a little moved. This power of direct action does not need to be notified to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement when necessary.

​​

"Your monthly salary as the team leader is 700 Galleons per month, and you have the authority to recruit team members yourself." Fudge continued.

​​

Ethan took a light breath, and he could see that the conditions Fudge offered were almost all he could grant as the Minister of Magic.

​​

"Minister Fudge, I'm also a professor at Hogwarts, so maybe one by one," Ethan said hesitantly.

​​

"It doesn't matter, the professors at Hogwarts also have a lot of free time and vacations, and the Ministry of Magic will give you a door key to the Ministry of Magic directly from Hogsmeade Village." Fudge said with a smile.

​​

Ethan leaned back slightly, this condition is too good, it can be said that Fudge is about to offer Ethan as Merlin.

​​

The so-called courtesy to others, there must be something to ask for, Ethan was a little curious about what Fudge's real intention was.

​​

"Then what should I do, Minister Fudge." Ethan said, looking into Fudge's eyes.

​​

"Nothing, it's just that the Ministry of Magic desperately needs powerful people like you to join us," Fudge said.

​​

Ethan was a little helpless. Fudge just wanted to spy on Dumbledore, but he still refused to explain it clearly.

​​

"Then I have no reason not to agree to you, Minister Fudge, I am honored to join the Ministry of Magic." Ethan said.

​​

The smile on Fudge's face suddenly rippling, and he stretched out his hand, "Then Ethan, welcome to the Ministry of Magic."

​​

Ethan shook Fudge's hand. This handshake represented that Ethan officially joined the Ministry of Magic.

​​

"That's right, Ethan." Fudge's hand circled the table casually.

​​

"Hogwarts doesn't seem to be peaceful recently. I heard that some students were injured. Do you know what's going on?" Fudge asked.

​​

This is a test of Ethan's preference.

​​

"The mastermind behind that incident was the mysterious man." Ethan said the name softly.

​​

Ethan understood that no matter what the future relationship between Dumbledore and himself would be, when it came to destroying Voldemort, the two had the same purpose, and Voldemort must die.

​​

After the Goblet of Fire incident, Fudge was so paranoid that he refused to believe that Voldemort was back and used all means to deal with Dumbledore.

​​

It's all out of fear of Dumbledore's seizure of power. Instead of letting things develop like that, it's better to give Fudge a shot now.

​​

Fudge's face turned bloodless the moment he heard it, and his body suddenly leaned back, as if he was dodging something, as if someone had hit him hard in the face. He blinked dazedly and stared at Ethan in a daze.

​​

"The mysterious man is back? Ethan, are you kidding me~lightnovelpub.net~?" Fudge Cup was frightened, he stammered.

​​

"I can tell you the whole process of this." Ethan pulled the chair and sat face to face with Fudge.

​​

Then Ethan told Fudge the whole process of the secret room incident. Of course, he hid some details that Fudge didn't need to know.

​​

"So one by one, Voldemort has been completely wiped out?" Fudge's pale complexion slightly improved.

​​

"It's a Horcrux, a Horcrux made by Voldemort when he was 16 years old. I saw it destroyed with my own eyes." Ethan said seriously.

​​

"That means there won't be any more problems." Fudge's face was covered in sweat, so he had to take out a handkerchief and keep wiping it.

​​

"It can be said for the time being, but this matter still needs in-depth investigation." Eason said.

​​

"That's good." Fudge let out a long sigh of relief, "Ethan, if there is anything new in this matter, you must tell me immediately." Fudge said seriously.

​​

"I will inform you as soon as possible." Ethan responded.

​​

The two sat at the dining table again and talked a lot until the night was getting dark, and seeing that it was almost time, Ethan got up and said goodbye.

​​

At this time, Fudge's mood has stabilized a lot, and he has returned to his previous amiable expression.

​​

"Thank you for telling me about Ethan. It's getting dark. I'll ask Andrea to send you off." Fudge put on an air of caring about his subordinates.
