Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 522 Suspicious Letter

In recent days, it is nothing new for someone to write to him.After he wiped out the two generations of the Dark Lord in one fell swoop, he knew that his number was increasing every day, and letters were sent to him from time to time.

But today's letter is quite different.

It can be seen that the envelope is a special specification of the British Ministry of Magic, and the large "M" logo of the Ministry of Magic is clearly knocked on the sealing lacquer, and a bright magic wand stands in the middle of the letter.

However, when Maca opened the envelope and took it out, there was only one copy inside.Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by the "latest report" printed on the front page of the newspaper.

"...'The ghost robs the dungeon in the Ministry of Magic, the Death Eaters flee again'?"

The headline of this report is very eye-catching. A headline alone occupies almost one-eighth of the front page, which makes it difficult for people to think about it.

Of course, as far as the title is concerned, although it is indeed eye-catching, ordinary people generally don't see any deep meaning in it.Just the subtitle that follows it is much more interesting.

"That Scrimgeour minister's seat, doesn't it seem to be sitting very securely?" There was a seemingly non-existent smile on the corner of Maca's mouth, which was completely amused.

The subtitle is written like this:

"Surprised that the ghost appeared! Is it the looseness of the Auror office, or the negligence of the British Ministry of Magic as a whole?"

Compared with the straightforward brief description of the main title, the subtitle obviously contains a lot of private goods.

First of all, Rufus Scrimgeour, the current Minister of the Ministry of Magic, was originally the director of the Auror’s office. Everyone knows that. This subtitle hits Scrimgeour’s former department as soon as he opens his mouth. The intention is clear. .

And the following sentence simply included the entire Ministry of Magic, and it was really mercilessly aimed.

Just after reading these two titles, Maca's heart is somewhat counted.But after he habitually glanced at the date of the newspaper, there was a little more thoughtfulness on his face.

This newspaper is not today's news, but "tomorrow".In other words, this is a so-called "finalized newspaper", the original that has not yet been officially released.Or, this is simply a "sample report" that has not been proofread by an editor.

Thinking about this, he then flipped through the next few pages, and saw that several parts were still blank.

From this it can be seen that although Scrimgeour seems to be doing things in a hurry, he is rough but fine.Right now, even if someone is still staring at the seat under his ass, he is not so easy to deal with. It also has his own dark line in the media.

In other words, this newspaper was "stolen" by him.

"It seems that this is true, otherwise Scrimgeour would not show me this..." Maca thought to himself, "It's just that, as far as he used the letter channel of the Ministry of Magic directly, he There seems to be plenty of room to control the Ministry of Magic?"

The meaning of this letter is actually very clear. It is to ask Maca to help solve this prison robbery.However, if this matter was really related to Scrimgeour's ministerial position, he would certainly not be so blatantly sending a letter in the name of the Ministry of Magic.

Macalli thought for a moment, his eyes flashed suddenly, then he shook his head again.

"...So that's it," he chewed on the deep meaning, and suddenly understood how Dumbledore became his principal. "If there is no authority, this is just a normal letter of help for me. That's it."

The so-called smart, there are actually many directions.Some people are smart in fighting for power and are naturally good at managing all kinds of power and profit conspiracy; while some people are smart in learning to create, usually learn knowledge in enjoyment, and then set foot in certain areas.

In fact, anyone can receive this letter.The fool has the right to get a free newspaper; the ordinary smart person probably thinks it is a letter of help; only those who have a certain ability to analyze the power field,

In fact, in St Mungo's ward before, when Scrimgeour brought Dumbledore's will, his temptation had already begun.It's just that Maca was actually a little perfunctory from start to finish, and his attitude was ambiguous.Perhaps because of this, he knocked on Maca's door again through this "inner ghost robbery incident".

For Scrimgeour, who wants to be a good Minister of Magic, a wizard with powerful magical power like Maca is a hurdle that cannot be circumvented. He is neither willing to accept this potential cooperation force nor May easily kick him down.

So now, Maca is almost certain that if he solves this mess for Scrimgeour, what awaits him will be a generous reward.Most of this reward will not be a cheesy thing like Jin Jialong, but something that is invisible but very valuable.

Of course, if he is not smart enough, after helping handily, the reward may really become the vulgar Jin Jialong.

And this is roughly the situation where he agreed to help.

If he refused this time, whether he saw Scrimgeour's true intentions or not, there might be some estrangement between him and the Minister of Magic in the future.

"Rufus Scrimgeour..." Maca said the name for a while, then secretly sighed, "Can't you tell the truth?"

Regardless of whether he is willing to sign this profound cooperation document, at least for him, helping or not helping has little effect.He was originally not very interested in those powerful things, and he never planned to take over the principal of Hogwarts. That would not be the life he wanted.

These speculations and conjectures are a long story, but they are actually a matter of minutes.After thinking about it, Maca stretched the newspaper again and read the specific content of the article roughly.

This long piece of news that occupies a whole page is rich in details, and the words and sentences are not stingy, and the whole incident is added with the background of various people involved, and it is filled in without hesitation.A total of three magical photos are inserted in the middle, which are clearly structured and accurate.

In an article by the old elder, the most frequently appeared one was an employee of the Legal Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic. The name Maca had never been heard before, but he was the protagonist of this incident—that’s the one. The so-called "inner ghost".

The incident was very noisy. There was even a big fight in the atrium hall of the Ministry of Magic. Whether it was an ordinary wizard who went to the Ministry of Magic for official duties or the staff and workers of the Ministry itself, many people witnessed it on the spot. In that mighty chase and escape.

Fighting inside the Ministry, even when Voldemort was still alive, didn't dare to do it, but who knew it happened after Voldemort was destroyed.

According to the description in the newspaper, the scene was quite hot at the time. Although the dead Voldemort loyalists who were arrested and awaiting trial looked quite embarrassed, once they took up their wand, they would never be reluctant to kill someone.Only in the first round of fighting, both the Auror and the Death Eaters suffered casualties in an instant.

After that, the two sides chased and fled, the Aurors chased and attacked, the Death Eaters fought and retreated.After the two parties lost a lot of manpower between each other, the "inner ghost" somehow opened a closed Floo net fireplace, and the remaining Death Eater remnants disappeared into the tragic green flames. in.

Throughout the article, there are interspersed between the lines of the inner ghost's identity and behavior, and even some past work and life.Among the seemingly real information, the spear was faintly directed at the Minister of Magic Scrimgeour.

Maca just scanned the densely packed text roughly, and then his sight was attracted by one of the three photos.

That was the scene where the Death Eaters were fighting and retreating in the hall, and their actions were clearly visible in the black and white magic photo.Every Death Eater held up his wand and waved desperately, UU reading www.uukanshu.com The gray magic beams pour toward the other end like rain.

At the close range of the photo, many onlookers crowded together were backing away in panic, the color of fear on their faces was fully revealed.

The Death Eaters didn't love to fight—not even one person hesitated. Although they were not good at coordinating combat, most of them played their own games, but they were better than ordinary Auror players in their individual strength.After they kept casting the spell, they retreated hurriedly, but it was not too reluctant.

But this is actually very strange, because which of those Death Eaters is a guy who likes to retreat?You know, most of those dark wizards who escaped from Azkaban are mostly murderous lunatics.In such a fierce battle, would he retreat in such a rhythm and order?

Maca has processed many large and small case files from the Order of the Phoenix, so he immediately discovered the problem, and noticed some clues in the not-so-large battle scene.

He realized that those Death Eaters seemed to be fleeing the Ministry of Magic purposefully.Or to be more precise, the prison robbery of those guys seemed to have an extremely important central task.

So, with this conjecture, Maca carefully searched in the photo, including the look, action and position of each Death Eater...

Then, he saw a big acquaintance who was particularly suspicious in detail in the mess of Death Eaters.

"This is Bellatrix?" Maca muttered in surprise, "...Well, it really is her."

Of course he didn’t recognize this big acquaintance, but the other person’s behavior in the photo was a bit unusual. It seemed to be mixed among the Death Eaters and retreated, but the wand that was waving wildly showed no sign of casting a spell. .
