v4 Chapter 39: Karkaroff's debt

"Really? That's great!" Huck felt a burst of unexpected ecstasy.

How can this be resolved so that everyone can be happy? It's very simple, the person who lost the dog should bear the cost of finding the dog. But this guy couldn't afford the money, and was dug up by the media, forming a de facto moral kidnapping of Huck. Huck's refusal to save the dog would be too cold, and if he saves it, it would be for the public and private, and both ends are unflattering.

Faced with this dilemma, Tom offers a third option: use magic to solve the problem!

"Please, Tom!"

A difficult matter was solved in a few words.

"It was really dangerous to say that just now, and I was almost overheard by Humphrey." Huck couldn't help breaking into a cold sweat when he recalled Humphrey who had just pushed in the door.

Tom looked at Huck and was speechless for a while: Huck, you are the nominal leader of the civil servants, how can you be so powerful?

"Perhaps you could put a lock on the door," Tom suggested casually.

Even a child knows that it is best to keep the door locked when secretly playing with the computer.

"He has the keys," said Huck scowling.

"You can change a lock," Tom said without hesitation.

Huck: !

"Can I really change the locks?" He looked at a loss, and then he reacted immediately: Of course he can! He is the Prime Minister!

Ten Downing Street was theoretically his residence, and he certainly had the right to change the locks.

"You can let another civil servant keep the key, while optimizing the security management regulations, and completely cut off Sir Humphrey's connection with your side." Tom offered the second strategy. Aren't the civil servants united? Then you can find a way to differentiate them.

Hack: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

He didn't quite understand this set of combos, but he was shocked and felt very powerful, and he began to think carefully.

Outside the office, Humphrey was also asking Bernard about Tom's origins.

"So this is our Prime Minister's...that?" Sir Humphrey held out a finger and pointed vaguely to the Prime Minister's office.

After receiving a negative answer, Humphrey fell into thought.

"It's not an illegitimate child, nor is it a representative of some strange group, nor is it a child of any family... Then what is his origin?" Humphrey looked at the closed office door, thoughtfully.

At this time, the old senior Arnold brought the person named Lucius that he had seen that day to his mind.

"Could it be that he is...!" Humphrey's eyes became sharp as he looked at the office.

This is a visitor from the magic world! In the past, the relationship was only in the hands of the Prime Minister! Civil servants of all dynasties tried their best to get on the line with the Malfoy family, but now this line is about to be broken. But God bless, he was actually bumped into by himself today!

He has to take advantage of this opportunity.

So he waited patiently outside the office door. After a long time, Tom finally came out of the office.

When Tom was about to leave, Humphrey greeted him warmly and said that he would invite Tom to try the afternoon tea in Downing Street.

"Of course." Tom was also curious about the civil servant leader, so he walked into the pantry at No. 10 with him.

"Lucius Malfoy," Humphrey said suddenly.

Tom was startled, then understood - Humphrey was really in touch with the wizarding world.

Looking at Tom's reaction, Humphrey also confirmed that Tom is really from the wizarding world.

But neither of them was in a hurry to go further, just drinking tea, chatting, and eating snacks.

"So what are you going to do when you're an adult?" Humphrey found a good topic.

"Go to Oxford to study, then graduate with a first class and become a civil servant." Tom ran the train with his mouth full and perfunctory, which made Humphrey burst into laughter, almost bursting into tears.

"Very good, but don't go to the wrong school. If you go to LSE, I'm afraid you can only be a minister." He also despised Huck's education.

"Leave a phone number." Tom, adhering to the concept that he came here, wrote down the phone number of Humphrey's house. In doing so, he was just playing a piece of free chess, leaving a relationship with the British official, which might come in handy at some point.

At this point, the purpose of his visit today is complete. Not only maintaining the relationship with Huck, but also getting on the line with the civil servant, it will be more convenient to do things in the future.

As for the way to help Huck, he has his own way.

...

There is a chill in the Salisbury Plain after dark. During the day, the army of reporters with long guns and short cannons had been evacuated, leaving only a piece of garbage.

Tom rushed to this place in the form of a phoenix at night, hovered over the plain for a while, and finally found the shepherd named Benqi beside a tree stump.

The next operation is very simple. Tom swooped down, grabbed the sheepdog and carried it into the sky. So far, his operation has been a great success.

"You can take it for business." After landing, Tom grabbed the shepherd dog and turned back into a human form, and successfully found the receptionist arranged by Huck.

"How did you do it?" The receptionist looked like a ghost, "You won't go directly into the minefield, will you?"

"I just have a little bit of dog training skills." Tom waved his hand and disappeared into the darkness.

Karkaroff was running for his life when Tom was busy with Hakla in the afternoon.

Karkaroff knew Voldemort very well, and also understood how powerful and powerful he was, so he didn't dare to stop there, and ran all the way from northern Europe to Japan, and his footprints spanned the entire Eurasian continent.

When he set foot on the territory of the Japanese magic world he breathed a sigh of relief: it was finally safe.

Facts have proved that [General] is still nostalgic. After understanding his purpose, he specially prepared a safe house for him, and at the same time ordered his subordinate officers to protect him personally, and provide him with a new identity after the limelight passed.

Karkaroff was relieved, and felt a new lease of life—until he opened the door to the safe house.

"Long time no see, my old friend." Voldemort raised his hand with a spell, beating Karkaroff's Feng Xingguan's life and death, and then conjured a rope out of thin air to lock Karkaroff, who was terrified to death. .

Behind Voldemort, Death Eater after Death Eater emerged from the shadows. They formed a circle around Karkaroff and Voldemort, as they had done in Little Hangleton.

"Lord...man..." Karkaroff wanted to say something, but Voldemort tapped his wand and blocked his mouth.

"You may be curious, why did you meet the master you betrayed for many years here... I can only say that Lord Voldemort's mana is infinite, and there is nothing he can't do... Well, there is too much gossip, It's time to pay the debt!" Voldemort's grim voice echoed in the safe room.
