Chapter 254

"So·······"

The minister smiled and looked at the wizard sitting on the other side.

"Leitner!"

The black wizard with a strange smile nodded in relief, looking at mortals like a butcher looking at a fat pig.

In fact, the interrogation process was just a process, and they knew from the beginning that this guy would not speak.

In order to dig out this guy, inquire about the original spreader of the rumors, and the truth behind the leak, the Ministry of Magic did not hesitate to suspend all operations, and internally rectified for two months.

This guy was very cunning, attacked several of his colleagues, and cast the Imperius Curse on them.

After the incident, the force resisted the arrest, creating a lot of chaos, and the Ministry of Magic even hired an elite Auror for this.

Unfortunately, the Auror who was seriously injured and died was Leitner's friend.

The Ministry of Magic's interrogation is different from the Muggle government, and arresting people does not necessarily require a complete chain of evidence-they have magic.

Veritaserum, which can make people unable to lie;
Legilimency, reading memory, but this is sometimes deceived by forged memories, if the other party is also proficient in memory magic

Time converter, go back to the past and watch the whole process;

Backtracking wands, flashback spells, checking spells this guy has ever cast...

There are so many ways to determine exactly what a person has done.

After all, the Ministry of Magic is an official organization. Counting its predecessor, it has existed for more than a thousand years. How could it not have the means to deal with criminal wizards?
As long as you are willing to pay the price, there is very little information that cannot be dug out.

Skillfully taking out a high-quality veritaserum, the black Leitner stepped forward, squeezed the young wizard's chin, and gulped it down.

The power of the potion took effect very quickly, and soon, the few people got all the information they could know.

However, this did not make several people happy.

With a sullen face, the Minister stood up and announced:

"This interrogation ends here. Take care of the prisoner and keep it secret."

"Remember, he is an important witness. There should be no obvious injuries on his body, let alone being insane... We may still need him to testify."

The minister stared into the eyes of the black Leitner and said.

The latter understands.

"Don't worry, Minister, I will stuff him into Room No. [-], and no one can bring him out except you!"

"Must make sure that he is sane and happy every day."

He showed his white teeth, and he emphasized the word "happy".

Nodding, the minister walked out of the room, followed by everyone else.

The black man who walked last locked the room in front of everyone.

The arm-thick iron chain is wrapped around the door. This kind of chain is strengthened by magic, and most unlocking spells are ineffective.

"Now, everyone will follow me to the meeting room, and then the whole process will remain silent, and no one will be allowed to leave."

A group of four people, all with gloomy faces, were silent the whole time, without saying a word.

The oppressive low air pressure seemed to bring a gust of wind to the entire Ministry of Magic, and the staff who encountered them on the way silently avoided them.

Soon, the news spread.

People whispered, and the people in the paintings in the aisle were also whispering to each other, and from time to time they could see people visiting other portraits.

In short, everyone feels that a new storm is about to hit.

Arriving at a corridor where few people came, he opened the locked door with the key he carried with him. He grabbed the doorknob with his long hand and turned sideways, making way for only one person to enter.

After the three of them entered, he slowly let go of the doorknob, entered backwards, and locked the lock.

Keys are single use, and no two keys can exist at the same time.

After making a few odd gestures, the minister inspected the room and nodded with satisfaction.

"Very well, no Animagus, no Time-Turner, no Looking Glass, no Invisible Man... This room is safe for now."

He pulled a recliner, lay down comfortably, and dropped the briefcase on the glass table top.

This room is unexpectedly simple, except for a transparent round table and a few deck chairs, there are only constant torches on the four walls for lighting.

"Let's talk about it, how do we deal with this matter."

"I thought it was a rumor made by the opposition, but I didn't expect the Magic Congress of America to be involved behind it."

"This is not good news..."

The minister sighed.

It is said that there are few people in the magic world and it is easy to manage. In fact, it is not the case until I really sit in this seat.

Wizards are a lot more trouble than Muggles with guns.

Wizards can use magic, and the means are changeable and unpredictable. Until the last moment, you never know what a wizard's hole card is.

In the wizarding world, every wizard is a potential troublemaker.

It is very likely that they are hiding the power to blow up the three streets, and it is difficult for you to distinguish them from the outside.

Or some hidden dark magic, curse, or some ancient mystery long lost.

Even the Ministry of Magic is not so easy to deal with.

We have to deal with a lot of messy things every day, either sending people to clean up the memories of Muggle witnesses, or solving the riots caused by magic items in the Muggle world, or arresting some dark wizards, cracking down on poaching and cherishing magical creatures hunters, to mediate disputes between the major wizarding families...

Most importantly, the power of the Minister of Magic is far less than imagined.

Wizards are born to despise all authority and dare to oppose any force. This is the confidence and pride brought by the magic in their hands.

The so-called "with a sharp weapon in your mind, you will kill yourself" is about the same.

Rubbing his temples in annoyance, this middle-aged minister suddenly felt very tired, as if he had retired.

"Minister, I think this matter is very likely."

A young witch spoke first.

She is the head of the legal department, Yekatrina, and has always been the confidant of the current minister. She is indispensable for many difficult matters.

"Lina, what is your basis?"

Lina was her nickname. In fact, she was the niece of the Minister who had grown up with her, but only in private meetings like this.

"Please call me Ekaterina, Mr. Minister."

Yekaterina is still clinging to this title.

"Well, you're still stubborn."

Spreading his hands helplessly, the minister motioned for her to continue.

"Muggle society is exerting influence on the wizarding world as we know it, and this trend is irreversible unless there are no more Muggle wizards in existence..."

 Ask for tickets, and ask for mooncakes by the way
