Chapter 523

It's nothing new that someone has written to him in recent days. Since 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 only today's letter is quite different.

It can be seen that the envelope is the special specification of the British Ministry of magic, and the big "m" sign of the Ministry of magic is clearly knocked on the sealing fire paint, with a bright wand in the middle of the letter.

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

"... 'ghosts in the Ministry of magic robbed the dungeon and the Death Eaters fled again'?"

The headline of this report is very eye-catching. One headline alone accounts for almost one eighth of the front page, which is difficult for people not to see.

Of course, as far as this positive title is concerned, although it does attract people's attention, ordinary people generally can't see any deep meaning. Just the subtitle below it is much more interesting.

"The minister's seat of scrimgeor doesn't seem to be very stable?" Maka's mouth hung a faint smile, completely a state of mind of watching a good play.

The subtitle reads:

"I heard that the insider appeared! Is it the local looseness of Auror's office or the overall dereliction of duty of the British Ministry of magic?"

Compared with the direct and clear description of the main title, there are obviously a lot of smuggled goods in the subtitle.

First of all, Rufus schlinger, the current Minister of the Ministry of magic, was originally the director of Auror's office, as we all know. As soon as the subtitle opened, it first connected with schlinger's old Department, and the intention was clear.

The latter sentence simply included the whole Ministry of magic, which was merciless.

Just after reading these two titles, Maka's heart began to count. But after he habitually glanced at the newspaper date, his face was more thoughtful.

This newspaper is not today's news, but "tomorrow". In other words, this is a so-called "fixed edition newspaper", which has not been officially released. Or, this is simply a "sample newspaper" that has not been proofread by the editor of the prophet daily.

Thinking so, he immediately turned over the next few pages. Sure enough, he saw that several parts were still blank.

It can be seen that although slinger's work seems to be windy and fiery, he is rough and meticulous. At present, even if someone is still staring at the seat under his ass, he is not so easy to deal with. Similarly, he has buried his own dark line in the media.

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

"It seems that it's true, otherwise scrimgeor wouldn't give me this..." Maka murmured to herself. "But, judging from his direct use of the letter channel of the Ministry of magic, he seems to have a lot of room to control the Ministry of magic?"

The meaning of this letter is actually very clear. It is to ask Maka to help solve the prison robbery. However, if this matter was really related to scrimger's ministerial position, he would not have so brazenly delivered the letter in the name of the Ministry of magic.

Maka mused for a moment, and then shook her head.

"... I see," he chewed on the deep meaning and suddenly understood how Dumbledore became his headmaster. "If there were no power cells, this would be an ordinary letter of help to me."

The so-called smart, in fact, there are many directions. Some people are smart and strive for power and profit. They are naturally good at all kinds of schemes and tricks for power and profit; While some people are smart and learn to create. They usually absorb knowledge in enjoyment, and then set foot on the peak in some fields.

In fact, anyone can receive this letter. A fool has the right to get a free newspaper; Ordinary smart people probably think it's a letter of help; Only those who have a certain ability to analyze the power field will find the hidden "kindness" and "temptation".

In fact, when scrimger came with Dumbledore's will in St. Mungo's ward, his temptation had already begun. But at that time, Maka was actually perfunctory from beginning to end, showing an ambiguous attitude. Perhaps because of this, he knocked on Maka's door again through this "ghost prison robbery".

For schlinger, who wants to be a good minister of magic, Maka, a wizard with strong magical power, can't get around. He is neither willing to give up this potential cooperative power nor can he easily kick him down.

So now, Maka is almost sure that if he solves this mess for scrimgeor, it will be a huge reward waiting for him. Most of this reward will not be kitsch things such as kingaron, but something invisible and untouchable, but very valuable.

Of course, if he is not smart enough, after helping, the reward may really become an intolerable kingaron.

This is roughly what he agreed to help.

If he refuses this time, whether he sees scrimger's real intention or not, there may be some estrangement between him and the Minister of magic in the future.

"Rufus slinger..." Marca said the name once, and then sighed, "can't you see the truth?"

Whether he is willing or not to sign this meaningful cooperation document, at least it doesn't make much difference to him whether he helps or not. He was not very interested in those powerful things, and he never planned to take over president Hogwarts. That would not be the life he wanted.

These speculations and conjectures are long, but they are actually a matter of minutes. Maka thought about it, then stretched the newspaper and read the specific content of the article through.

This long news, which occupies a whole page, has rich and detailed details. It is not stingy to choose words and sentences. It takes great pains to fill in the whole event and the background of various people involved. A total of three magic photos are inserted in the middle, which are clear and accurate. It can be said that they are not vivid.

In this long article, a staff member of the legal enforcement department of the Ministry of magic appeared the most frequently. His name Maka had never heard of, but he was the protagonist of the incident - the so-called "insider".

There was a lot of noise in this incident. At that time, there was even a big fight in the atrium lobby of the Ministry of magic. Whether it was ordinary wizards who went to the Ministry of magic to handle official business, or the staff and workers of the Ministry of magic, many people witnessed the mighty pursuit and flight fight at the scene.

In the internal battle of the Ministry of magic, even when Voldemort was still there, he didn't dare to do it, but who knows it happened after Voldemort was destroyed.

According to the newspaper description, the scene was quite hot. Although the Voldemort loyalists who were arrested and awaiting trial looked quite embarrassed, they would never be soft hearted once they picked up their magic wand and killed people. But Maka just roughly scanned the dense words, and then his eyes were attracted by one of the three photos.

That is the scene of Death Eaters fighting and retreating in the lobby. The actions are clearly visible in the black-and-white magic photos. Each Death Eater waved his wand desperately, and gray magic beams poured down to the other end like rain.

At a close distance of the photo, many crowded onlookers were retreating in panic, and the color of fear on their faces was exposed.

Death Eaters don't love war - even one person doesn't hesitate. Although they are not good at cooperative combat, they mostly fight each other, but they are better than ordinary Aurors in individual strength. Under the spell, they retreated in a hurry, but it was not too reluctantly.

But this is actually very strange, because which of those Death Eaters would like to retreat? You know, most of those are black wizards who escaped from Azkaban at the beginning, and most of them are murderous lunatics. In such a hot fight, would it retreat so rhythmically and orderly?

Maka has handled many large and small case files from the order of the Phoenix, so he found the problem at once and noticed some clues in the not too big battle picture.

He found that the Death Eaters seemed to be purposefully fleeing the Ministry of magic. Or to be more precise, it seems that these guys have an extremely important central task in this prison robbery.

So with this conjecture, Maka looked carefully in the picture, including the look, action and position of each Death Eater

Then he saw a very suspicious acquaintance in the chaotic crowd of Death Eaters.

"This is Bellatrix?" Marca muttered in surprise, "... Well, it's her."

Of course, he didn't recognize the big acquaintance, but the other party's performance in the photo was somewhat unusual. It seemed that he was retreating among the death eaters, but the wand he waved wantonly showed no sign of casting a spell.
