Chapter 149 Urgent

"Everything I gave you will be used."

Mu Yu stood in front of the window, and the endless flow of people in the Ministry of Magic below were condensed into black dots moving along the squares in her eyes. Since the abolition of the Secrecy Act, the Ministry of Magic has been busier than before, and there is an endless stream of visitors. However, no matter how busy the department is, there is still no chaos in the department, and there is no fear of chaos.

Those people hanging from the ceiling were hung alive for seven days before they were dragged down due to death. This Shura scene has almost become a good medicine for children who cry at night due to word of mouth and active exposure.

The only thing that remains unchanged is the increasingly golden fountain statue in the center. Baptized and worshiped by thousands of eyes every day, the statue seems to have vitality and magic. The purpose of the visitors is different, but the statues are the same in their eyes.

It's all desire.

Those who have the ability see an extraordinary status, while those who do not yet have the ability long for the power that is within reach if they devote their faith.

Above the statue is a very small window shaped like an eye pupil. The light covers the window, like a golden light flowing in the eye. Although the window is small, no matter where it is in the main hall, you can look at it as soon as you raise your head.

No one dares to do this. Anyone who accidentally raises his head to meet this "pupil" will lower his head with great respect and almost fear.

\"The gods are watching you.\"

These words were engraved on the dome of the Ministry of Magic.

"Fudge and the others did a good job. I like this very much." From Mu Yu's perspective, she saw not only the people walking in a hurry in the main hall, but also the scenes of various departments of the Ministry of Magic doing their work. They were condensed into tiny landscapes. Unobstructed view. She touched her chin and studied the different expressions shown in the microscopic view, "When did you become so quiet without talking?" After

standing for a while, she got tired of this research game, and sat back on the soft chair by the window to continue studying. This giant Go board is in front of you. The fight between the black and white stones on the chessboard was particularly tense. She held the black stone in her hand, as if she was wondering which move would be better.

The snake coiled at her feet also moved a few inches with her movements, and continued to curl around her legs meekly and lazily.

The interior is not cramped or cramped at all. The majestic dome is engraved with intricate runes, and the smooth walls are faintly flowing with water-like ripples. If you look closely, every tile on the wall is infused with powerful magic. It is not eye-catching, but it is breathtaking. Occasionally, there are wall lamps inlaid on the wall. From a distance, they are just lamps. If you look closer, the inner core is filled with fluorescent spiritual stones. On the outside, the extremely precious stones are just piled here to serve as lighting. The texture of the shiny floor is completely different from ordinary marble. The path extending to the curved corridor outside the door is paved with pieces of warm jade, flowing together with the faint fluorescence.

There was only one piece of furniture in the huge palace-like hall, which was the chess table where Mu Yu was sitting on the two steps in the middle. On each side of the giant chessboard was a soft chair that was as luxurious as a bed. Mu Yu seemed to not know where to put the chess piece before he stopped and glanced sideways at Bellatrix: "He did a good job in dealing with Maurice Bernard. At least he showed his face. " You are willing to hand over the island to us instead of spending a month or two in the Ministry of Magic." "

There is no need for you to falsely praise and meddle," Bellatrix said, thinking that she was about to engage in what she was best at. Her eyes were shining, "Just wait, I will make it a prison and execution ground more prestigious than Azkaban. I am the most valuable and the most loyal."

In terms of conspiracy power, she had to admit . This freak does have some brains, but other aspects are hard to say.

Mu Yu weighed the black stones in his hand, then turned around and continued to ponder the chessboard. The two of them had nothing to say anymore. It was extremely rare for them to be calm and in the same room. It was obvious that it was uncomfortable to stay with her for one more second, but Bellatrix would rather stay where she was.

"Don't wait, I can't wait," Mu Yu put the black piece in his hand on the chessboard with a snap, "Welfare wants to discuss something, and I decided to meet him alone."

For a moment, she thought that Bellatrix was going to do it again. He pulled out his magic wand at her, but in the end he just squeezed forward and looked at the intricate chessboard, and continued to be weird: "Is it possible that your cousin uncle of yours still wants to recognize a relative at this time?" She said a second ago He mocked in a annoying fake baby voice, then suddenly returned to normal in the next moment, "It is entirely possible that you will become our enemy - a new, powerful force independent of Dumbledore."

Mu Yu stopped looking at the chessboard. Study, every second your eyes stay on Bellatrix, the more it feels like torture to the latter. In the end, she picked up a white stone very smoothly and dropped it on the chessboard: "What I saw was not a representation of power or pure blood. What I saw in my eyes was different," she said very seriously and without a trace of irony, "There is no right or wrong. ."

She stopped looking at Bellatrix and continued to think about the chess game with the black piece in hand. She always thought for a long time every time it was the black piece's turn. Small sounds should indicate that the other person is leaving.

"I would be disappointed if you died so easily."

The last words he left behind made Mu Yu's movements of playing with the chess pieces slightly stagnant. After a brief pause, she said nothing and focused entirely on the chessboard, so much so that she didn't even notice that Welfare had entered.

Apart from Olivia's memory and the fleeting glance in the halls of the Ministry of Magic a few months ago, this was the first time she had seen her nominal cousin in person. More than ten years seemed to have sped up for him, leaving deep and shallow wrinkles on his face. He did not look like a man in his early forties at all.

He and Olivia still have many similarities in appearance, which makes her even more like an outsider.

The sunspot in his hand didn't fall for a long time.

"Mr. Welfare," she stopped being polite after a brief greeting and went straight to the point. "What you are asking for - direct access to the Dharma, more information and even status, will not be approved."

Welfare was obviously dissatisfied . , dissatisfied with the current position of the two of them, and also dissatisfied with her dismissive attitude.

Mu Yu added: "This is what we mean."

"It's not fair, and it's different from what was promised," Fuli said as soon as she finished speaking, as if he was afraid of the snake coiled on the ground, and paused for a moment. After a pause, he continued to state until he realized that she had no intention of interrupting, "In terms of blood, at least one of us is of mixed blood, and there has never been a wizard born as a Muggle. In terms of contribution, we have had no objection since Minister Fudge implemented the Wizarding Census, and even more He did not speak out on the abolition of the Secrecy Act, and to this day has been a backbone in helping the magical world adapt to the new order. We at least have the right to know where the endless new gadgets - those that detect magic power and those that manage equipment from the Ministry of Magic - come from. Come."

He knew that it was impossible to obtain the Dharma. Seeing that Mu Yu had been listening and had no intention of making a sound, he took a step closer and said, "We have just reached an agreement with the Gringotts goblins. They Still in charge of the economy, slowly opening up to the Muggle monetary system requires precise financial control at every moment to stabilize the economy in the current Muggle situation. If Northern Europe still needs large expenditures at this time..." He deliberately said. After a pause, seeing that Mu Yu didn't react much when he mentioned Northern Europe, he continued, "If the whereabouts of this gold are unknown, it will not only be our world that is in turmoil, Miss Mu."

He seemed to be sincerely interested in macro-development. She doesn't look at her with any personal emotions.

The black chess piece was about to be played smoothly by Mu Yu.

"You also know about Northern Europe. You also have no right to interfere with the whereabouts of that gold, Mr. Foley." She no longer looked at Foley, but gestured with the chess pieces on the chessboard. "In terms of bloodline, you did not choose to side more than ten years ago." In terms of stance and contribution, you have neither objection nor approval. Until now, most of them are still waiting to see whether the self-isolated Hogwarts can turn around. Fairness has given you so-called fairness. , what does it mean to other wizards and even Muggles who have dedicated their faith, who are guarding tightly around Hogwarts, and who are eagerly waiting for the expedition?"

She seemed to be completely stuck by the chess game in front of her, and she simply put the chess pieces aside : "It is your duty to serve in the Ministry of Magic. To worry about economic trends is to be nosy. There is no need to waste your breath, Mr. Foley."

She refuted his points one by one, and was extremely cautious and did not reveal it. A little bit of talk.

"You and your mother are nothing alike," Welfare did not bother, but sighed quietly, "The last time I saw her, she was still thinking about not involving the family, and would rather die than go back, and she would give birth to you regardless of her own health."

There was a look of reminiscence in his eyes: "She was gentle and kind. It's a pity that she was not lucky enough to raise you."

Mu Yu stared at the lines on the chessboard and finally understood why he asked Welfare to come.

They were sure that she would definitely meet him, and they were also sure that no matter how much she resented, she would never forget the woman who was stroking her belly, sometimes whispering softly, and sometimes walking hard on the dirty streets of London. She had imagined countless times what her mother would be like if she were alive, and that woman looked exactly like the image of her mother in her imagination.

But it was only a shadow, a remnant of a former weakness.

"Of course we understand your considerations. The Ministry of Magic is currently in urgent need of manpower. I submitted a proposal to Minister Fudge, but Minister Fudge doesn't seem to have the power to decide." Foley finally revealed the ultimate purpose of coming, "Hogwarts The accident happened suddenly. Before formally re-establishing the education system and contacting Durmstrang and Beauxbatons, I proposed that the higher-level students should temporarily enter the Ministry of Magic to adapt to their studies..." The words

on the surrounding lamp walls The fluorescent light was much brighter, making every chess piece on the chessboard crystal clear.

"In the name of Olivia, just for this matter." She tilted her head as if admiring the shining chess pieces, "Anyone can work with you, Thicknesse, Fudge, Malfoy , even Nott..."

\"It's different when it comes to their children. \" When Olivia was mentioned, Foley didn't feel much embarrassment, but looked at her with a stern look.

Mu Yu flipped a white stone on the chessboard: "Who makes you look at Malfoy in a different light, a child who can only call him daddy? Although he is not completely brainless... Gore Crab has taken a liking to them both. I have to say that you have good taste. Unique. Or..."

Her pause changed from her previous gentle and gentle manner. After a second of pause, the pressure was overwhelming. But when she looked up at her again, she smiled again: "Theodore Nott. "

All of those people's...children." Thanks to the welfare, they can still remain calm in this situation.

"You are talking about bargaining chips."

"Don't dare. We will only consider any decision that is beneficial to the current Ministry of Magic."

"Agreed," Mu Yu finally put the black piece that had been put aside for a long time and landed it firmly on the chessboard, "The deceased Umbridge once said, "Everything is for the Ministry of Magic, cousin."

She said the last word "cousin" very sweetly.

The white chess piece on the chessboard has shown signs of decline.

Naturally, he would not stay here if he had achieved his goal. After he left, Mu Yu slowly stroked the white pieces one by one, picking up one at random and then putting it down again. One hand placed the white stone on the chessboard for her.

The situation was clear, exactly as she had imagined.

"They thought I would be soft-hearted," she leaned back gently with the hand, "They were wrong. They underestimated me."

"I know, I know," the hands were playing around her neck. That locket, "It has always been like this, thinking that so-called love can solve everything..."

The chessboard suddenly changed at such a seemingly ordinary moment, and the chess pieces placed on it became more and more... It became more and more transparent, making the chessboard red and fiery, as if it was burning. Gradually, two equally bright red words appeared on the chessboard.

"Norway, there's an emergency."

The handwriting was scrawled in a panic, and even the words were hastily abbreviated. Unless there is a last resort emergency, Norway will never easily communicate in this way.

One of the white stones didn't follow the planned path, or worse - it just left the board.
