Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 1480 The Eve Of The Conference
"Are you coming soon? Are they all coming in? So far, who are the representatives yet?"
Upstairs in the old conference hall, Akinbad was sitting by the window with Kingsley and Mrs. Maxim, looking at the situation downstairs.And the secretary of another French Minister of Magic is now whispering to them the status quo of the meeting place they have just observed below.
Since the "Secrecy Act" had not yet been proposed when the Federation convened the first conference, the wizards were all living together normally with Muggles.This mansion, which was the site of the first convention, was built on the ground as ordinary Muggle buildings.
But now, whether it's the conference hall downstairs or the entire mansion, even if magic such as the Muggle expulsion curse was applied afterwards to protect it, they are gradually on the verge of being abandoned because they have not been used for many years.
Just looking at the thorny appearance of the large front yard downstairs, Akinbad and others could not help but feel emotion. To be honest, although the vast majority of wizards are strictly implementing the "Secrecy Law", who can Don't you want to go back to live in a fair and honest life in the vast and prosperous world outside?
To put it bluntly, I am afraid that everyone hopes that one day the ridiculous prohibitions in the "Secrecy Law" can be lifted and live freely, right?
"Actually, although I did choose the address of the meeting, McLean proposed'I want to hold a meeting on the ground'... Now, I think we all have a deep understanding of his intentions."
Even though the real purpose has not been stated up to now, the words of Akinbad and the scene in front of him have made Mrs. Maxim vaguely aware of the purpose of this emergency joint meeting.
"Mr. Akinbad"
Even though the tall Maxim had to sit on the table because of his figure, he still showed a graceful posture unique to a French lady, and his words and deeds did not make people feel abrupt.
Seeing her head sideways, looking effortlessly at the scene of representatives of various countries walking outside the window in the jungle-like front yard, she didn't know when a trace of worry appeared on her face.
"McLean... will he come over soon?"
Even if she still doesn't want to admit her blood, to be honest, she is probably the smartest giant half-blood wizard in the world.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to securely pass the board of directors amidst many controversies and become the principal of Boothbatten School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
After being more or less aware of the key to this meeting, Maxim quickly realized that "Whether Maca will appear in this meeting in person" will directly affect the final outcome of this meeting.
But when she asked casually, Akinbard and Kingsley, two equally intelligent people, suddenly looked at each other, and then both shook their heads.
"Madam, you and Hogwarts and McLean are known as old friends. I might as well tell you the truth," Akinbad said. "Whether McLean will attend the meeting or not, we don't know...probably , He also has to look at the flow trend of the meeting to make a decision, right?"
If Maca suddenly appears at this international conference, the scene is actually very subtle to think about.
It stands to reason that with Maca’s current status, if you are generally qualified to participate in a meeting, probably no one will say anything.But if you suddenly attended such a hurried and special occasion today, I am afraid that everyone would immediately mumble in their hearts that something troublesome has occurred.
Because of the large and small movements of Haierbo, they were basically carried out on the surrounding coast with the North Atlantic as the center, and the hardest hit area was mainly in Europe.
Those areas that have not been harassed at all will certainly not pay so much attention to this stall.
But think about it, no matter how terrifying Helbo is, his ability alone is limited.In this regard, the number of parliamentarians who stand on the sidelines in this meeting may not be small.
Therefore, if Maca comes on stage with a major proposal to abolish the "Secrecy Act," the scene is estimated to be quite embarrassing.
Because Maca also understood this, he asked Kingsley to make a judgment on whether he was required to come forward, and even if he really wanted to appear, he had to find the right time.
At this moment, Maca was in the observation room in Spiral Town, waiting silently.
"Ok……"
Just as everyone was looking out the window with their own minds, Kingsley suddenly said:
"It's almost time. I should go down to the table first."
The official congressmen in the magic world of various countries have not yet fully arrived, but there is already a lot of time in the venue, and this is his first task today.
This kind of thing is simple, but it is actually quite difficult at the moment. After all, the disaster in the British magic circle can be regarded as an international event that has attracted the attention of many countries recently.
As the new British Minister of Magic, Kingsley Shaker, who is on the verge of danger, no one knows yet, but he was busy resisting the enemy as the head of the Auror office, and even served as the secretary of the Muggle Prime Minister and the secret Ministry of Magic in the past. When facing the Muggle liaison officer, he did not show his face less.
"Speak carefully!"
After Akinbard kindly reminded him, Kingsley pursed his mouth and nodded. After moving his bald head, he turned and walked out of the room step by step.
Because the meeting was held on the second floor, there were no people on the third floor except for a few people belonging to the French Ministry of Magic walking around.
In addition, Kingsley didn't know anyone here, so he didn't speak until he got down to the second floor.
But when he walked all the way to the corridor that was specially cleaned and renovated today and covered with a bright red velvet carpet, he finally met a few familiar wizards and wizards among the many representatives who seemed strange and somewhat familiar. .
For example, Giotto, the representative of Italy and the president of the International Alchemy Association.
"Oh! Mr. Shaker?"
As the president of the most inexistent International Alchemy Association in the world, Giotto is actually not well-known in the Federation.
Although he is indeed an alchemist with real materials, and because of this he served as an official member of the Italian Union Congress, but because his works have almost no practical value, it is even more difficult for people to remember.
However, he has always been in close contact with many famous British wizards. He had also attended Dumbledore's public funeral.
Of course, maybe the lack of presence is an inherent attribute of his life, so that there are very few people who notice him.
At that time Kingsley was the one who was in charge of receiving him, and because of this little cause, the two of them knew each other.
When they met outside the venue, Giotto took the initiative to greet Kingsley.
