Chapter 1129

Outside the window of the minister's office, it looks sunny.

Of course, I mean, this bright sunshine may be limited to the window of the Ministry of magic.

Because the magic part is deep underground, it is impossible to open a conventional window to show it. But if the staff work in the dark all day, at least it is not good for their physical and mental health.

Therefore, almost every window of the underground building of the Ministry of magic has been enchanted, and the weather of each day is basically determined by the magic maintenance Office of the Ministry.

According to Arthur Weasley, a person familiar with the matter, there was a hurricane outside the window of the Ministry of magic for two months last year, and this was only because the maintenance staff wanted to get a raise.

However, even if their wages have not increased up to now, they dare not easily change the weather outside the window recently.

After all, the work pressure of some departments in the Ministry these days is really not small, especially our minister of magic, Mr. schlinger.

"Oh, the weather on your windows today is so good that I want to put a magic spell on my room. I think you know, the air outside is a little sticky at the moment, and it's probably going to rain again!"

Maka sat on the sofa and calmly drank a cup of coffee just brought up by scrimgeor's secretary. He didn't seem to want to turn his words to the subject so soon.

On the other side, Kingsley listened and said with a smile:

"Mr. McLean, you may not know - the Ministry is living a tight life all day now. If there is another haze outside the window, it will be even harder for everyone!"

Although many people have learned that Kingsley and Marca have a relationship in the dark, on the surface, they still have to pretend to each other.

Otherwise, from the standpoint of schlinger, the Minister of magic, he would be a little too embarrassed.

"Really?" Marca gossiped with Kingsley very cooperatively. "Mr. scrimger... If you need help, just tell me that it is also the duty of all wizards in the British magic world to do our part for the work of the Ministry of magic!"

"Er... Well, it would be great if you could have such an awareness!"

Listening to Maka's high sounding words, scrimger almost took it seriously.

Fortunately, he soon realized that the other party was just saying some beautiful words in front of the female reporter of the prophet daily, which didn't make a joke at the beginning.

Obviously, although Maka doesn't seem to have brought the topic to today's business at all, the interview has actually begun.

In fact, since journalists are also people, it is impossible for them to strictly abide by the industry norms and maintain eternal objectivity. Therefore, before the interview, ordinary gossip is a good opportunity to leave a specific impression on the other party.

"Miss brethwaite," said Marka, suddenly turning to the tall female reporter with a relaxed smile, "please tell Mr. goofy, the editor in chief of the prophet daily, that I am glad to see the latest report of your newspaper every morning! Well, I will remember to pay from next year!"

"Oh, it's nothing... With your wealth, if you like, it's just a piece of cake to pay directly for a hundred years!"

To be a journalist, Betty reacted quickly to Maka's little joke.

Moreover, it can be seen from her tone that the prophet Daily has great respect for Maka, the youngest outstanding wizard in Britain.

Yes, at least Betty's response is obviously much more cautious than her previous dialogue with slinger.

However, from the agreement of the other party, Maka can also detect that the female reporter mentioned his value intentionally or unintentionally, which is obviously not an accident.

"Well, do you want to show me the investigative ability of their newspaper reporters?"

After a little thought, Maka nodded quietly with some clarity.

In the past, almost all of his purchases and sales of potions were completed in the black market. Only now, due to the turmoil of the black market, some of them have turned to the bright side.

Although the degree of confidentiality is bound to be reduced accordingly, it can not be found by anyone.

"Then, with your kind words, I hope I can live for a hundred and ten years!"

Maka shrugged her shoulders without much concern and replied meaningfully. His words actually allude to his struggle with Haier Bo. It is still unknown who will die and who will live.

After all, from the perspective of the normal life span of wizards, it is often no problem to live beyond the age of 90. People at the level of Marca and Dumbledore will even live longer because of the activity of magic.

But the premise is that there is no accident.

Betty seems to have tasted the temptation before Maka's interview. Hearing Maka's meaningful words, she couldn't help smiling. She kept sitting politely and demurely, leaned slightly and said:

"Mr. McLean is joking, but a hundred and ten years may not be much for a wizard like you. I think Mr. Albus Dumbledore, if not..."

Betty didn't finish, but her attitude was clear. It seems that the prophet daily is more optimistic that Maka can win the final victory, even if they don't expect to stand in line easily.

"Maybe!"

After figuring out the female reporter and the attitude of the newspaper behind her, Maka finally raised her eyebrow, then turned her head and smiled at slinger.

"Mr. Minister, I think this interview should start right now! It must be said that none of us here is really busy. We can continue to work on our own things by taking the time to finish what we should do!"

Upon hearing the speech, Scrimgeour couldn't help muttering to himself:

"You're not procrastinating."

But naturally, he didn't dare to say this. He immediately straightened his front tie, then straightened his waist and stretched out his hand to the female reporter:

"Then, according to McLean, let's start!"

The content of this interview will certainly make the front page of the prophet daily. For the newspaper, this is a good time to attract attention and improve the subscription rate; For the Ministry of magic, this is an opportunity to guide public opinion and reduce the work pressure of the Ministry.

In this way, it doesn't seem to be much good for Maka to show his face and improve his already high popularity?

However, not only does Kingsley know, but even Betty, the female reporter, has long guessed that Maka must have another plan. This interview may not make any big news.

Only schlinger, who is now bent on going to jail, is unaware of it.

"OK, no problem!"

As soon as Betty listened, she put down her cup and took out her shorthand book and automatic inking feather pen for the interview from the satchel next to her.

The photographer sitting on one side also stood up with a magic camera and was ready to take more photos for the editor to choose himself.

"Bang!"

Before Betty began to ask, she heard the old-fashioned magnesium flash suddenly explode. A cloud of smoke and the light that was almost blinding people's dog eyes forced everyone to blink.

"Oh, Fu Zuo, you can take pictures later - I think some generous men here will give you time to take pictures!"

Seeing Betty waving away the smoke and stopping herself from taking pictures, the photographer had to sit down on the sofa next to her.

"I'm sorry," Betty turned around when she saw him sit down. "Well, first of all, I have a few small questions that I need Mr. McLean to answer for our readers --"

Most of her "little questions" were prepared at the newspaper, and maybe even the editor in chief asked her to bring them to ask Marca, so she was a little anxious for a while.

So that when she spoke, she almost forgot scrimger.

"Excuse me!"

Maka didn't say much, just nodded.

"Well, the first small question -" Betty Mei looked forward lightly and asked after a slight meal. "About the recent chaos in the British magic world... Such as the underground assembly of black wizards and the disappearance of suspects in the dungeon of the Ministry of magic, Mr. McLean, how do you personally think... Should we deal with it?"

To be honest, this first "small problem" is very tricky.

Of course, the tricky part of this question is not the problem itself, but the object of the female reporter's inquiry.

If you ask scrimger directly, the Minister of magic, this is undoubtedly a regular official question and answer. But Betty didn't mean to ask scrimger, but asked Maka's personal opinion, which is obviously some thought-provoking.

Fortunately, Maka was not embarrassed about this, because Dumbledore, as an outsider, was asked similar questions by the media at that time as early as during the wizard revolution launched by greenward.

"Ordinary people have no mandatory obligation to help Auror deal with black wizards, and the dangers of black wizards are well known," Maka said with a calm smile, "So I personally think, please don't get involved in these events easily. If you find anything, it's enough to inform Auror's office at the first time! You know, I think we can trust the power of the Ministry of magic to eliminate evil."

These words were naturally made at one go, but Maka knew that this was not the answer Betty wanted. So at the end, he suddenly added:

"As for myself! As a member of the British magic world, I will probably do my part - well, of course, on the premise of ensuring my own safety, ha ha!"
