Chapter 58 Umbridge

Muggle leaders were used to this kind of coexistence, but they saw the incompetence of the Ministry of Magic during Voldemort's riots. Muggle society also suffered a lot of damage. It required the media to use full firepower to deceive the people, and the Ministry of Magic to eliminate Muggle sightings. the memory of the person. As long as the missing witnesses reveal the truth in the next four or five years, MI6 will be required to clean up the witch decision-making team.

The Muggle losses caused by the Wizarding War were borne by the Muggle leaders. The leaders even less believed that the Ministry of Magic could protect Britain. It was difficult to prevent Voldemort or the new devil from attacking Muggle society again. They spent ten years strengthening their power against wizards, extracting and analyzing any information about the magical society and the Ministry of Magic for a long time, and finally found out:

1. Voldemort was not dead and attacked Harry Potter again, and finally killed him again with the assistance of Aaron Naama.

2. Last year, the Naama family also gained a lot in the mutated magical world and Muggle society in Eastern Europe.

3. Aaron Naama became a professor of "Divination". He had an extremely accurate prediction ability and was recognized by all the teachers and students in the school.

Based on the above three points, the witch decision-making team began to fully trace the movements of the Naama family, and finally discovered last month that their head of the family, Ms. Isabel Naama, had opened a large number of companies in the Muggle society, and was also rare in the Muggle society. I had already applied for a Muggle passport.

However, if you don’t check, you won’t know. If you check, you will be shocked.

After rummaging through the information of these companies, it turned out that the Naama family had made countless financial speculations in the Muggle society in the past ten years, and they almost made no losses.

Therefore, the Muggle government wants to recruit this magical family to serve the royal family directly.

Muggle witchcraft forces do not have access to the secrets of the Ministry of Magic, but they can find out that Chen Bin and Harry killed Quirrell who was possessed by Voldemort last year.

What does this prove? It proved that Fudge did not regard this information as a high-level secret. After the senior management heard it, he told the middle management, and the middle management might use it as a talking point in the bar.

The spies who were sent to the Muggle department also heard about it. It is conceivable that the Ministry of Magic is basically a leaky wall. No wonder Lao Deng never believed that the Ministry of Magic could fight against Voldemort. There are still many positions in the Ministry that are also occupied by pure people who are pro-dark magic forces. Blood control, or pure blood sponsorship.

Chen Bin spent nearly an hour hearing the whole story. As he suspected, the Ministry of Magic in various countries also had methods to eliminate renegade wizards.

Of course, he would not completely believe what they said. It was very good that one out of ten sentences was true. He also discovered a lot of half-truths and misleading truths. This is due to more than ten years of police career and the brain power of the Philosopher's Stone.

"I'm sorry, it seems you didn't investigate clearly." Chen Bin took out his passport and handed it to Brown, smiling: "I will not become a British citizen."

Brown opened his passport blankly and did not understand the Chinese name written Chen Bin, but he clearly saw an English name - Aaron Benji Minama, which was the young wizard in front of him.

"A conservative magical society actually hired professors from Asia?" Taylor exclaimed.

She couldn't believe that the arrogant magical world would accept Eastern wizards, but the young man in front of her was obviously a black-haired European!

Chen Bin rolled his eyes at the beauty and retorted: "The Ministry of Magic only recognizes wizards born in the family and the local area. There is no such thing as a passport, but as the heir of the Naama family, of course I have the right of residence and admission in the magical world. If I yearn for magic Why not go back to the East? I am now a resident of the British Ministry of Magic. Why should I become a British citizen? I have no shortage of money; I am a wizard and do not need power. Voldemort only desires Muggle power. , Do you dare to give it?”

Brown didn't do anything anymore. It was obviously a misjudgment caused by unequal information. The Naama family also has a lot of prestige and power in the European magical society, and even has a lot of wealth in the Muggle society. The heir is not a citizen of this country, so how can we talk about it?

"If there are no other questions, that's it." Chen Bin used his wand to clean up the room and prepared to go back.

Brown was shocked. He didn't expect Chen Bin to leave immediately, and finally became anxious. "We hope to cooperate with the magical society in the long term to jointly combat the possibility of the mysterious person being resurrected."

"Tell me the important point." Chen Bin walked to the door and looked back at the two of them.

"Our short-term goal is to ask you to inform the Ministry of Magic to solve the problems that occurred in Northern Ireland." The beauty Taylor directly stated the purpose, leaving Chen Bin stunned for half a second. "What? This is a Muggle thing, what does it have to do with us?"

Brown took out a thick stack of documents, shook his head and said: "No, this has gone beyond the Muggle conflict. Wizards from Northern Ireland have also joined the war."

"You also have many wizards in MI6, just fight them back." Chen Bin is just a professor of "Divination" and doesn't want to wade into this troubled waters.

"It just can't be defeated." Brown said with a wry smile: "We already have reliable intelligence, and local wizards have been involved in the incident. If it were just a militia of non-demon people, we would have solved the problem long ago. The "International Secrecy Act" stipulates, Wizards' affairs belong to wizards, and Muggles' affairs belong to Muggles. Now it's up to you to solve the problems caused by wizards."

It's strange that Chen Bin believed him.

In the original time and space, this issue was a periodic conflict that lasted for fifty years and was not completely resolved until 1998.

Chen Bin thought for a while and used the text message machine to relay the whole story to Dumbledore. Then, in less than five minutes, Lao Deng apparated into the office.

"Principal." When Brown and Taylor saw his sudden appearance, they were so frightened that they stood up immediately, their faces full of restraint and nervousness.

Chen Bin thought with a bad taste that when two rebels met the Chief Justice, even though they served different masters, it was hard to guarantee that one of them would be beaten to an Avada.

"Minister Fudge already knows your problem. Now come with me to the Ministry of Magic." Seeing Chen Bin waving at them, Old Deng rolled his eyes at him unhappily. "Including you."

Chen Bin was also stunned. "Isn't my problem solved?"

"The Ministry of Magic supports you, and you should share the pressure." After saying that, Old Deng directly Apparated away.

Chen Bin stared at the two with dissatisfaction. "If you want me to help you for free, you're dead."

Then, Chen Bin also disappeared with a "pop" sound, leaving the two staring at each other.

War with Muggles will certainly reduce the strength of the Nama family, and there may be a chance that they will be wanted by the Ministry of Magic, but killing two rebellious wizards is still a piece of cake.

Do the two dare to gamble their lives?

Led by Dumbledore, Chen Bin and the two traitors entered the Ministry of Magic from the main entrance. After registration and body search, they passed through the sculptures at the gate and took the magic elevator to a meeting room.

Minister of Magic Fudge had already sat in the center, staring at the traitors with a bad face. As the Senior Undersecretary of the Minister of Magic, Umbridge sat next to Fudge. The other five or six wizards did not have any characteristics, so Chen Bin did not recognize them. They were probably from the Department of Magical Enforcement.

[Note: The name "Senior Undersecretary to the Minister for Magic" is a bit weird, but it is definitely not the "Deputy Minister of Magic" or "Senior Undersecretary of the Ministry of Magic" as translated in the original work. Senior Under-Secretary to the Minister for Magic, the translation of the next word is "Senior Undersecretary to the Minister for Magic/Minister", which should be translated into Chinese as "Senior Undersecretary to the Minister for Magic", and the official Japanese translation is also "Minister of Magic Pays Senior Deputy Minister", which is not translated into "Deputy Minister of Magic". 】

Fudge stood up first, shook hands with Old Dumbledore with a smile, chatted for a few words, then gave up the chairman's seat and went back to work. This was obviously a warning to the wizards on the Muggle side - the appearance of the minister meant that the Ministry of Magic and the Muggle government were equal in status, but the position of the Muggle representative was too low and he was not qualified to have a face-to-face meeting with the minister.

Since Chen Bin imposed the oath-taking session in extracurricular activities, Fudge's trust in Old Dumbledore has obviously increased a lot, and he did not even have any resistance to the video of him taking out the socket nose to steal the Philosopher's Stone earlier.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Old Dumbledore did not ask the Ministry of Magic to publicize the return of the socket nose in a high-profile manner. Chen Bin suggested that Old Dumbledore continue to praise Fudge's achievements in building the economy this term, and agreed that the Ministry of Magic needed to secretly accumulate strength to give the socket nose gang and the people a surprise.

After the two traitors sat down, they were obviously extremely uneasy, and looked at Old Dumbledore and Chen Bin many times, hoping that the two would speak well of them.

However, Dumbledore was like a referee today, saying nothing, letting Umbridge give a bunch of official speeches and then "interrogating" the traitor's intentions with a disdainful tone.

To be honest, no matter how they wanted to play, Brown and Taylor didn't dare to have any emotions. When they were still in the magic society, they were just small figures, at most they were handymen, salesmen or apprentices, and not everyone was like Harry, the protagonist, who could meet high-ranking officials in the hierarchical magic society.

Chen Bin thought maliciously that the biggest official they had ever seen was probably Dumbledore, who was both the principal and the highest judge, and then it might be the patrolling Auror, nothing else.

The two were like elementary school students, Umbridge asked a question, and they answered it. If they were not detailed enough, she would ask and ridicule them with thorns, and the two could only answer with red faces and stammering.

The Ministry of Magic does have this strength. If there is any provocation in the Muggle society, a team of five ordinary Aurors may also turn London upside down.

Chen Bin regretted chatting with the fat Muggle woman for so long. It turned out that the Muggle leadership would only cower when they got angry. If the two people in front of him had not received orders from the top, they would not have restrained themselves like this. It was obvious that Muggles also had self-knowledge.

The meeting lasted for three hours, and Chen Bin's butt was sore from sitting, but he could not leave his seat. Because there was a lie detector ball on the desk, as long as the representative of the Muggle forces said something, everyone would look at the color of the ball and ask Chen Bin: "Is that so?"

It was fine not to ask, and every time he asked, Chen Bin would add a long paragraph of what the traitor didn't say.

For example, when the two were bragging that the combat power of the British Muggle society was the best in Europe, Chen Bin had to explain that this Europe did not include the former Soviet Union's member states, and that the combat power of Muggles was composed of comprehensive national strength such as economy, politics, business, population and military strength.
