Chapter 593 Black makes a scene
at the Ministry of Magic Ministry of Magic, basement floor, in the Minister's office.
Mike is holding a document about the current development of the magic world in Yingguo and looking at it carefully.
But he looks a little indecent at the moment, sitting in the boss chair with his legs on the desk, not to mention that he has a toothpick in his mouth.
In that way, he doesn't have the aura of the Minister of Magic at all, but more like a street urchin who does nothing all day.
But it's okay to blame Mike, after all, he is too bored.
Unlike Chris, who likes to hold all the power in his hands, Mike is very open-minded about power. As soon as he came to power, he assigned the main positions of various departments of the Ministry of Magic to members of the Freemasons.
For example, Arthur was assigned to be the director of the Auror Office, Penelope became Mike's assistant and secretary, and others were also very well settled.
Among them, Benjamin was more special, he became the second in command of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
The reason why he failed to become the top leader was mainly because Mike had already promised this position to Kingsley.
However, it was actually meaningless for Kingsley to be the top leader of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. After all, this was one of the largest departments in the Ministry of Magic, and Mike could not give it to an outsider like Kingsley.
So although Kingsley was the director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement on the surface, he actually had no real power, and the entire Department of Magical Law Enforcement obeyed Benjamin's orders.
It was because of these people who shared the work that Mike could sit in the office and read reports easily.
Otherwise, the countless work alone would crush Mike to death in the office!
Picking up the teacup beside him and taking a sip, Mike sighed with emotion.
To be honest, his life now was a little too comfortable. If he lived like this for too long, he might be useless.
Shaking his head, Mike put down the teacup, stretched his body and prepared to get up and move around.
However, at this moment, the door of the office was suddenly opened.
Penelope, wearing a lo suit, walked in with a stack of documents in her hand, frowned and said to Mike:
"Mike, Sirius is here. He is making a big fuss downstairs and said he must see you."
Mike was stunned when he stretched himself, and then his expression became a little ugly.
He probably knew why Black came here.
Nodding, Mike stood up and walked downstairs with Penelope.
The first floor below the Minister's Office is the important place of the Ministry of Magic, and an outsider like Black is not qualified to go there.
When he arrived at the lobby of the Ministry of Magic, Mike saw Sirius Black surrounded by a circle of Los Santos wizards (now called Aurors) in the crowd.
Black looked very excited at this time, and from time to time he would try to pull the Aurors who surrounded him.
Fortunately, these Aurors were all veteran Los Santos elite wizards who were transferred from the job. Without using the magic wand to attack, Black could not do anything to these people.
With the arrival of Mike, the crowd that had gathered quickly made way for them. Black, who was in the middle of the crowd, changed his previous manic appearance after seeing Mike and gradually became quiet.
Black was not a fool. Making trouble was just a way for him to see Mike. Now that Mike had appeared, he naturally didn't have to act.
"Sirius, what are you doing?"
Mike said helplessly. There were still many passers-by in the hall of the Ministry of Magic. Black's making trouble here brought him a lot of trouble.
When Black heard this, the muscles on his face twitched. He saw that the swear words were about to burst out with the anger in his heart, but he held back when the words came to an end. He just gritted his teeth and said:
"Harry is missing!"
After confirming that Black was indeed here for Harry, Mike sighed, waved to Black, and took Black out of the hall and came to an empty room next door.
Just after arriving in the room, before Mike had time to sit down, Blake suddenly grabbed Mike's arm and yelled at Mike with a heavy breath:
"Where did you take Harry!"
Listening to Blake's roar, Mike did not speak, but just looked at him expressionlessly.
Mike's eyes were clear and cold. Blake, who was stared at, suddenly felt a chill in his heart, which instantly froze his anger and his whole body. He loosened his grip on Mike's hand.
"I'm sorry about Harry's disappearance, but first of all, I want to tell you that we definitely didn't kidnap him." Mike continued to look into Blake's eyes and said seriously.
"But..."
"I know. I am well aware that one of my men once had a very excessive conflict with Harry, and not long ago he attacked Harry again. But I guarantee that it was all his own decision, and it was definitely not my order. Besides, I have dealt with him now, and it is absolutely impossible for him to go out and harm Harry again."
"Dealt with? Do you mean you killed him?"
Looking at Black's delighted face, Mike didn't know how to explain Victor's current situation to him. After a moment's silence, he could only say:
"That's about it."
"You still have some conscience!" Black slammed the table and said, "I believe what you said, Mike, but the problem now is that Harry is missing! And his disappearance is related to you, so you have to give me an explanation!"
"I know! I've been looking for him a long time ago!"
"How is this possible! If you had started looking for him a long time ago, how could he have gotten away with your strength? You are the Minister of Magic now! Do you want to tell me that Harry can escape from the clutches of a Minister of Magic and a legendary wizard?"
Looking at Black who was excited again, Mike was speechless.
He shook his head, pulled out a stack of newspapers from the newspaper rack nearby and threw it in front of Blake, saying,
"You must be too busy. If you had read a newspaper in the past two days, you wouldn't have said such a thing!"
Blake didn't react much to Mike's sarcastic words. Now all his attention was attracted by a missing person notice in the newspaper in front of him.
The protagonist of this missing person notice was Harry.
Blake quickly flipped through several newspapers. In the most prominent position of these newspapers, there were missing persons notices about Harry without exception.
The expression on Blake's face instantly became awkward. He finally realized that he had misunderstood Mike.
"Sorry... sorry."
A mosquito-like apology came out of Blake's mouth, and Mike just waved his hand.
He knew very well that Blake's apology to this extent was very good, which also proved that his temper had indeed improved during this period.
If it were the past, let alone an apology, he would have been very good if he didn't smash your head.
The anxious Blake didn't continue to argue with Mike, but after getting the answer he wanted to know, he quickly embarked on the journey to find Harry again.
Of course, before leaving, he also solemnly told Mike to continue looking for Harry and to inform him as soon as possible if he found Harry.
Mike still didn't say anything, just nodded to show that he understood.
Blake just left like that.
It was not until Black disappeared from his sight that Mike sighed softly. It was the best result to be able to deal with Black so easily now. Mike did not want to fall out with Black unless it was absolutely necessary.
Thinking of this, Mike's eyes fell on a book "The Story of Peter Bean, the Poet" on the bookshelf beside him.
Mike did not deceive Black. He had indeed tried every way to find Harry, but the final result was nothing.
As Black said, this was extremely abnormal. After all, Mike was not only a legendary wizard, but also the Minister of Magic. It stands to reason that Harry, a wizard who only knew one or two tricks, had nowhere to escape, especially when he had just returned to Yingguo recently. In
this regard, Mike's guess was that the Deathly Hallows in Harry's hand, the Invisibility Cloak, finally released its true power.
This was not Mike's delusion.
In fact, a comparison shows that the Elder Wand is the most powerful wand among the Three Deathly Hallows, without a doubt.
The Resurrection Stone can summon the souls of the deceased.
The power of these two Deathly Hallows is not only shocking, but also beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
But what can the invisibility cloak, which is also one of the three Deathly Hallows, do?
It can only be used as an ordinary invisibility cloak. Although it will not lose its effectiveness over time like other invisibility cloaks, it has no special effect in terms of concealment.
From Harry's previous use of it, it can be seen that it cannot hide sounds or footprints. It is even pitifully weak in terms of magical concealment. Others can detect its existence with just a slight sweep of magic perception or mental power. This low effect is obviously inconsistent with its title as one of the three Deathly Hallows.
In addition, Harry's current situation is very similar to the abilities shown by the third brother in "The Tales of Peter Bean the Bard" after he obtained the Death Cloak, such as ignoring divination, ignoring magic perception, ignoring mental power exploration, and weakening the sense of existence...
Combining these points, the invisibility cloak in Harry's hand is in its prime, and with it, as long as Harry is willing, he is likely to hide forever like the third brother in the story.
This is simply terrible!
Looking up and taking a deep breath, Mike stood up from his seat and walked towards the fireplace beside him.
In addition to working in the Ministry of Magic today, he has an important job.
That is to go to attend the magic summit of many European countries such as Miying, France, and Australia. Although he is late now, he still has to go.
With a flash of fire in the room, Mike has disappeared in the drifting smoke.
At the same time, in a small palace floating on the sea surface on the high seas, Mike's figure suddenly appeared.
Unlike the classical Eastern European castle style outside, the architectural style inside the palace is closer to ancient Greece and very artistic. Rows of white marble columns stand in the spacious palace, matched with mirror-like shiny floor tiles and towering ceilings that reach the sky and have no boundaries, which makes the whole palace look sacred.
But it is not the style Mike likes. In his opinion, the decoration here is still a bit simple and rough. He prefers the deep and elegant style of Western European castles. In
the center of the palace, there is a group of stone tables and stone benches, and several men and women in different clothes have already sat in them.
Seeing Mike coming, a witch holding an ivory pipe in her hand suddenly raised her head and said,
"Mr. Mike, you are really on time."
Ignoring the taunting of the woman with the pipe, Mike looked around and said,
"You invited me to attend the meeting today. Now that everyone is here, let's get started." As soon as
these words came out, the expressions of the wizards and witches standing or sitting around suddenly became a little ugly.
Especially the French Minister of Magic standing in the corner, his originally not white face has become darker now, and this color change from light to dark is extremely obvious in this pure white palace.
Finally, he seemed to be unable to bear it any longer.
He clenched his hands and walked out under the gloating eyes of other wizards around him, and said to Mike:
"Mr. Mike Townley, don't you think you should first explain to me why you chose to choose the battlefield for your battle with Chris Flint in our country?
The battle between the two of you has caused immeasurable losses to our country and seriously violated the International Statute of Secrecy. The latter is the matter of the International Federation of Magic. I have no right to ask and don't want to ask. But for the former, I think you must give me a satisfactory compensation."
Hearing this, the wizards around turned their eyes to Mike again.
Mike's eyes moved slightly, and his heart began to become clear.
The purpose of this meeting has actually been made very clear from the beginning.
It is to discuss whether it is legal for him to replace Chris to dominate the Ministry of Magic of Yingguo, and whether other countries should recognize whether Mike has the right to rule over the wizarding world of Yingguo.
And the reason why the French Minister of Magic just jumped out to mention the compensation is probably a test.
If Mike is weak, he will easily hand over the compensation.
Then I am afraid that other countries will also attack and start to demand benefits from Mike.
This is something Mike will never allow to happen.
After thinking this through, the corners of Mike's mouth rose. He tilted his head and looked at the dark-faced French Minister of Magic with a puzzled look, and whispered a few words:
"Ask me for money? Do you want to die?"
