Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 1784
"Booth Barton?"
What should I say?An unexpected but reasonable visitor-Erich nodded at the clerk who came in to report, and then waved backhand:
"I see. Go ahead first! Say I'll be there in a while...Receive well, don't neglect."
He turned his head subconsciously as he watched the other person leave again and again from the door, and then looked at each other with Fogel who was waiting.
"Is it a coincidence?" Miss Vogel saw Erich looking at herself, and couldn't help but said, "We just talked about the situation in France, and this Mrs. Maxim is here."
But for this, Erich then shook his head.
"Coincident? It's just a matter of time if I want to tell you." He frowned. "Although McLean can face Helbo head-on, it is clear that there is still a gap between his strength and Helbo. Now, he has been forced by Haierbo again and again, and he is obviously showing fatigue...and in this case, it is almost inevitable to seek help."
"Then..." Fogel listened and couldn't help asking, "If this is the case, do we have to help?"
"do not know."
Erich was silent for a while, and finally shook his head slightly and gave such an answer.Then, he removed a file from the top of the data pile on the right hand side, and looked at the magical photo of Maca on it and said in a deep voice:
"It stands to reason that this favor should be helpful-that'despicable Helbo' is an enemy, and it's the kind of'enemy that can't become a friend'. If he is not destroyed, the strange fog will sooner or later destroy the whole Europe... and even the whole world is shrouded... such a future is unimaginable for us now."
As he was talking, he suddenly sighed again.
"The question is, do we have the strength to defeat the'monster' of Helbo?"
If enough forces are organized, it may be possible to eradicate Helbo from this world-perhaps as long as they are willing to think, there are not a few people who can think like this.But as the heir to the Brandt family, as a wizard who had been talented since he was a child, Erich was not so optimistic at all.
Helbo is a genuine and famous ancient black wizard. He was already a well-known existence in ancient Greece.In today's era, as far as Erich has read through the books, this is equivalent to a terrible event like a tiger entering a flock.
Yes, instead of asking himself why he was also a wizard but so "weak", Erich was even more surprised at how the Maca McLean grew up to be able to win the battle with Haierbo.
Compared with the other person, myself, the "genius" of others, is like a kind of irony.
Therefore, he just said "Do we have the strength to win the battle?" Maybe it was more like asking himself.
Thinking of this, Erich couldn't help turning his head and glanced into the corner.However, the old wizard who had been standing in the shadow in the corner had no reaction at all.
Upon seeing this, Erich had to withdraw his gaze and stood up while propping up the table.
"Let's go! Go and see Mrs. Maxim who is coming from afar, and then... anyway, let's tactfully refuse!"
"I, am I going too?" Fogel asked immediately when he heard it.
Erich walked around the table to the door, and said casually:
"Of course you are going! You are the diplomatic liaison officer, so it makes sense to follow me to meet with Mrs. Maxim-remember to watch the situation for a while and help me get rid of the trouble."
"Oh! Okay, Minister."
Before the words were over, the two walked out from the door one after another, and in the next moment, the figure in the corner of the office suddenly disappeared from the place.
...
The German Ministry of Magic has relatively few materials in the books. At least Hermione has read so many books, she has hardly seen any detailed descriptions.
And this time, it was the first time she came back to this place.
After getting out of the carriage in front of the square building, she followed Mrs. Maxim and the old butler, led all the way to this drawing room and sat down under the leadership of several Ministry staff.
To be honest, this building actually has a cold feeling from the inside to the outside.
The gray and tough walls, the corridors with too bright magic lights, and the ceiling murals with a heavy sense of history but a little monotonous in color.Everything in this building reveals an inexplicable sense of depression, which makes her feel a little uncomfortable while fresh.
Fortunately, this kind of unhappiness is still within the tolerable range, and it will not make her want to leave this place urgently.
"Does it feel something wrong?" The old butler gestured to Hermione. "Maybe you have noticed that there is not a single window in this building--not at all."
If the old butler hadn't said it, Hermione hadn't noticed it for a while.She was about to ask the old butler if she knew why, but when she saw the other party, she said directly:
"Actually, the German Ministry of Magic was originally a fortress-its walls were subjected to a large number of protective spells, and it has experienced the test of the wizarding war. Then the war ended and it came to a time of peace. As a result, the German wizards found that even they I can't modify it anymore...coming."
Suddenly, with two knocks at the door, the old butler stopped talking and did not continue.At the same time, Ms. De Quinn, who was sitting next to Mrs. Maxim, also froze, and the whole figure seemed to be frozen there.
Obviously, no matter how you make up your mind beforehand, you will still be nervous when you are nervous.
"Click."
The doorknob of the hall door was twisted, and then Hermione saw that a handsome uncle who was approaching middle age but still handsome came in from the outside with steady steps.
"Is that the man that Ms. De Quinn has been obsessed with for so many years?" Hermione carefully observed the other person, and said secretly in her heart, "Indeed, if you only look at the appearance, this is indeed a man who can make people forget it. A man. Even though he is no longer young, he still has an undiminished charm. On the contrary, he has become more mature because of his age."
But at the next moment, this exceptionally outstanding middle-aged man froze in place when his eyes passed by Mrs. Maxim.
"Oh! I saw her!"
Hermione smiled to herself-with such a big reaction, at least she knew that the other party had never forgotten DeQueen.What should I say?Is this a good start?
Just thinking about it, but suddenly, a strange feeling suddenly rose from Hermione's heart, and she immediately threw those thoughts aside.
"what happened?"
