Fifteen years later.

In the summer of 1960, the sun was dazzling.

Britain Ministry of Magic Building, first floor. In the nostalgic furnishings and the fireplace for viewing, the flames suddenly bounced, and a young man rolled out of the fireplace in embarrassment. The pendants and spider orchids on the fireplace that touched him shook ding ding dong dong.

But the youngster's reaction was also quite quick, reaching out and taking the falling objects one by one in his hand.

It’s just that his clothes are messy and his hair is covered with ashes. The men who were talking with men wearing suit jackets and briefcases were taken aback, and quickly stepped aside and avoided him.

"Hey, youngster, how did you get out of the old-fashioned fireplace." The wizard in a suit pinched his nose, "This thing has been inactive for many years."

That youngster Did not answer his question, but asked anxiously, "Where is the Ministry of Magic's office?"

"Ministry of Magic?" The man carrying the briefcase looked at the youngster in front of him in surprise. , "What are you looking for, Minister Bach?"

"I..."

The youngster covered in dirt has not had time to speak, he sees someone in the distance wearing a kilt , Dong dong dong, a male employee in slippers, came running. He was holding a large stack of documents and ran gasping for breath. He also controlled a pair of documents with the Levitation charm beside him, which made him look like a bunch of documents with long legs. He yelled as he ran, "Give it, give it!"

The buddy was walking towards an elevator door that was about to close, and he was about to hit him.

"Eh, be careful!"

Baltic Dee rushed over, hurriedly held the elevator door with his hand, and held the elevator door for the pile of long-legged documents. To prevent her from hitting the closed elevator entrance.

"Ouch, thank you, man." A young man with thick glasses poked his head from behind the document. He looked at the elevator door with lingering fear and said, "Good fellow, I almost gave the document. It broke up, but I spent a whole day arranging it."

Baltic Di followed the man into the elevator and asked anxiously: "Excuse me, on which floor is Minister Bach's office?"

p>

"The Minister visited Moscow today, don’t you know?"

The man holding a stack of documents curiously said: "My buddy, you go to see the Ministry of so dirty Magic is long, is it really good?"

"I have something important." The youngster shook a letter with a red stamp in his hand and emphasized: "Very important thing!"

The man holding the document took a look at it. He saw the stamp pattern on the stamp clearly and showed a clear look: "Here is Hogwarts?"

"Yes," The youngster straightened his chest.

"Come with me, I happen to send the signed documents to the minister. But I can remind you that his secretary is not easy to deal with. If you don't explain what you are coming from, she won't let you in at all "

After speaking, the elevator door ding dong opened with a sound.

Baltic Di trot all the way to follow the man holding the documents, and asked in surprise, "So many documents were signed by the Minister alone?"

The young man rolled the eyes: "This is the third time I gave it today. Originally, his secretary did the job, but his secretary recently got his feet off..."

Baltic Di was dumbfounded. I heard that the current Ministry of Magic Hoffa. Bach is a well-known workaholic, I didn't expect to be more exaggerated than the rumors outside.

As they walked through the porch and came to the lobby of the Ministry of Magic office, someone stopped him with dissatisfaction: "Hey, that cockscomb, don't rush in! You are doing What?"

Cockscomb Baltic Di stopped walking and felt the hair on his head combed. The young man who sent the document gave him a "good luck" look and held the document all the way. The trot left.

Baltic Di turned her head to look. It turned out to be a middle-aged woman sitting at the desk. She was slanting her eyes and looking at him severely, "What do you look at, you guy, that department, no I’m going to see Ministry of Magic for an appointment!”

She was so terrifying that other office workers sitting in the office lifted the head, staring at the intruder, with disheveled clothes and messy hair. The youngster.

"Oh... God...!" Baltic Di flushed, and he covered his head in annoyance, "Listen, I am not an official of the Ministry of Magic, I am a teaching assistant of Hogwarts , I am here to send a letter to the Minister from the password of Headmaster Dumbledore."

Dumbledore's letter!

The expression of the middle-aged woman eased a bit, he extended the hand, "No appointment, please give me the letter, I will help you forward."

Everyone in the office Looking at him curiously, Baltic Di only felt stressed, but he still stubbornly hid the letter behind him.

This action caused some people in the office to laugh. Baltic Di didn't know what they were laughing at. But it must be related to the middle-aged woman.

Sure enough, the middle-aged woman limped out from behind the desk and walked to Baltic Dee with an unkind expression.

"Hey, smelly brat, you didn’t mean to make it difficult for me to work for me. The minister’s letter must be approved by me before it can be reviewed by the minister. If you don’t know anything about it, don’t blame me. Auror, come here..."

"Aiya!"

Baltic Di was anxious, he looked at all around and whispered in the woman's ear, "The content of the letter It’s about the eldest son...I have something to say to the minister in person."

When I heard it was about the eldest son, the meanness on the middle-aged woman’s face quickly disappeared, and she limped. He walked back to the desk quickly, grabbed the phone quickly, flicked a few buttons, and the phone was connected. She covered the microphone, said a few words quickly, and pointed at Baltic Dee with her eyes.

Soon, the middle-aged woman put down the phone and pointed to a group of sofas in the distance, indifferently said: "Go there and wait. You are very lucky. The minister will be back from Moscow in half an hour. ."

Huh...

Baltic Di relaxed, feeling less anxious.

He sat on the sofa and waited. The people in the Ministry of Magic office continued their respective work, busy but quiet.

After waiting for a while, Baltic Di saw that no one was paying attention to him anymore, so he wandered around the office a little curiously. This is the pinnacle of power in the magic world, but it seems surprisingly ordinary.

There are not many special decorations in the whole office, but there are a lot of photos hung. The photos are all black and white. A closer look reveals that they are all old photos more than ten years ago. The content of the photos is mostly tragic and real war scenes.

Baltic Di is born in the generation of a new student. He has no memory of the protracted war in the old days, but he is also in the book, as well as teachers, who have heard of it from the elders. , That is the most terrifying war in the magic world so far, and it is also the latest revolution.

Following the photo wall, he came to the glass curtain wall of the Ministry of Magic building. The sky outside the glass windows slowly flew over a white airship. Under the airship, there is a constant stream of magic flying carpets, pieces of floating high-rise buildings, some vehicles on the Mobiliarbus in the sky, and lush and green forests along the road.

The extreme prosperity outside is in stark contrast with the tragic picture in the photo. Baltic Di suddenly realized that the minister's intentions for such a layout. Did he hang his past photos on the wall to remind himself at all times?

Just thinking about it, there was a commotion in the porch.

Several Aurors walked from the hall with a middle-aged man wearing a dark black wizard robe. He was in his thirties, with black and white hair, in great spirits, and he walked up and down. Feng, a young female secretary was by his side, while running and flipping through the files in her hand, she kept chattering.

Baltic Di immediately recognized the man in the crowd, although he was already in the poster, on the magic broadcast station, and had seen Hoffa .Bach countless times-the man who ended the war and rebuilt the Wizard Society, historically The only Ministry of Magic who has been re-elected for three consecutive terms is also the strongest figure in the world. He is the idol of countless young wizards. His speeches have been read countless times by Baltic Di, but when he really stood in front of the Ministry of Magic, his legs were still weak.

"B... Minister Bach..."

When Hoffa passed by him, he stammered and shouted.

He was probably too busy, or maybe the secretary next to him was too able to talk. The entire group walked past Baltic Di, and no one noticed Baltic Di.

Seeing that Ministry of Magic is about to enter the office, Baltic Di finally mustered his courage and loudly shouted: "Minister Bach!"

Hoffa turned his head when he heard someone calling him Look, I was a little surprised to see a young man with a cockscomb head covered in ashes standing in his office.

"Ba...Bach...Minister, I...I...I have something to find you..."

Baltic Dee's tongue is knotted , Stammered and said, nervous sweat dripped from his forehead.

Auror, who was next to Ministry of Magic, saw him face to face, and he was in a mess, and his complexion surrounded him.

Hoffa immediately reached out and stopped a few Auror, gently said: "What's the matter with you, speak slowly."

Baltic Di looked at the few around him Auror, gritted his teeth, and whispered a few words in Hoffa's ear.

After Hoffa finished listening, nodded expressionlessly, pressing the young man's back, led him into his office. As soon as the door closed, he sighed: "How did Dumbledore deal with it?"

A few Aurors are gone, and the secretary of chirp chirp twitter is also gone. Baltic Dee suddenly relaxed a lot. He stopped stammering and said sincerely: "Because you have a lot of opportunities, Headmaster Dumbledore had to contact your wife first and want her to help, but after your wife went, he ran instead. The highest point of the Ravenclaw Tower, why didn’t he come down."

Hoffa sighed: "I understand, now, he hasn’t come down yet."

"I rode up the broomstick and lifted him up. He took it, and gave him to your wife. Your wife was angry, really angry... So Headmaster Dumbledore wrote you this letter and asked me to pass it to you in person, he Let me tell you that everything is going well at school now. But if you can, please take a moment to accompany him, otherwise..."

Baltic Di wanted to say nothing.

"I see." Hoffa said softly, patted the youngster's back, "Thank you, Baltic Di, for your hard work."

youngster was shocked. , Asked with extreme surprise: "You, how do you know my name?"

"I heard Dumbledore mention you a long time ago, Hufflepuff Seeker, the first in the ending points for four consecutive years, I still see After your Quidditch match, that match between you and Ravenclaw was very exciting, very exciting." Hoffa said praised.

The youngster's eyes were full of tears, and his whole body was shaking with excitement, only that the man was shining all over.

Hoffa smiled and helped him tidy up messy’s collar, jokingly said: "However, next time you come to Ministry of Magic, remember to come over by the Super Floo Network. The stove is now a souvenir. I'll pay for it."

"I...I know..." Baltic Di Qiang was in tears and trembling in excitement.

If you let others know about Hoffa.Bach, the Ministry of Magic, and the Ministry of Magic that has been re-elected for three consecutive terms, not only have you watched his game, remember his name, and even help yourself to organize your collar, What an honor it should be.

"Okay, let's go back, help me and Professor Dumbledore say a word of sorry." Hoffa patted his shoulder.

"I understand." Baltic Di took a deep breath and said with an unusually calm attitude.

"Very good." Hoffa said appreciatively.

The young wizard nodded, solemnly turned and left the Ministry of Magic office room. The passing female secretary looked at him suddenly and meticulously, and couldn't help twitched his lips. I thought it was another guy who was conquered by the minister's charm.

......

......

However, in the office, after the young wizard left, Hoffa was extremely tired. on the chair. Meetings with foreign wizards consumed a lot of his energy. There are still a lot of tedious government affairs waiting for him to handle. The newly revised wizard education bill needs to be signed by him. The increasing scarcity of magic materials needs to be solved by him. The maintenance of domestic stability requires a lot of energy. .

In contrast, the craziest adventures in my youth are nothing compared to this life.

And now, Dumbledore sent him another letter...looked at the desk calendar on the table, September 1. He took out the wand, turned it into a letter opener, and opened the letter Dumbledore had written to him.

After reading, Hoffa showed such a wry smile. He clutched his forehead and groaned with a headache: "Oh... uh... you kid..."

p>

The content of Dumbledore's letter is very subtle, which probably means that his newly enrolled son beat up several children of the same age as soon as he entered school. It is very stubborn. Dumbledore hopes that he can take time to talk to him in private. Talk, accompany him.

Seeing the content of this letter, Hoffa was heartbroken and wished to go back and train the silly boy immediately.

However, the brief mood swing did not knock him down. He put down the letter and began to review the documents at his desk. While piercing, he ran the So-Hum that Silby had taught him, and he was calm in his simple breath.

Two hours later, he finally lifted the head from the pile of documents, rubbed his temples tiredly, and pressed the bell on the table.

The messenger secretary working outside the door came in and asked: "Minister, what's your order."

When the secretary came in, Hoffa's face was completely tired. Disappearing, he became in great spirits and sat upright. He quickly signed the document in front of him.

"Prepare, give this batch of documents to Director Helga, tell him that I have read the approval of the Department of Transportation, and start construction without any accidents. I want to see 20 Super Floo Networks by the end of the year."

"Okay."

The secretary hurried forward and took over the papers from Hoffa.

Hoffa signed a few copies and then ordered: "Also, I will verbally inform Richard of the Magic Item Supervision Department to send him to strengthen the control of contraband on the market this year. In addition, let the law The staff from the Secretary will come to meet with me at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."

"I see." The secretary took out a small book, wrote it down, and said hesitantly: "Minister Bach. "

"en?"

The secretary said: "The former director of the Department of Environmental Protection, Raymond Denton has always wanted to see you. He seems to feel about the days in the reserve. It’s miserable."

"No," Hoffa said calmly: "Tell the old skater, when will he restore the Unicorn group in the Western border forest to the level before his tenure, and when will he come again? See me."

"Understood."

Hoffa gave the signed document to the secretary, thought for a while and said, "Oh, by the way, let Klopner Help Miranda to host the press conference of the Department of International Affairs tonight. She may not go today."

"This..." The always obedient and clever secretary hesitated.

"What's the matter, Phyllis?"

"Minister, your wife...but famously punctual and... (secretary's words for a few seconds). .. Uh... strong, if she knows that Klopner helped her organize the press conference, she might be unhappy."

Hoffa knows it, thinking that the last time she was fired because she was too strict Several subordinates. It's no wonder that his secretary is fearful. However, Dumbledore wrote to himself today, I'm afraid he has to let Miranda take a vacation.

"It's okay, let Crowe go, I will take care of her." Hoffa said gently, "Thanks for your hard work."

"It should be."

p>

The secretary stopped talking.

She took the document on the verge of collapse that Hoffa gave her, almost half a meter thick, and walked out of the minister's office.

After approving the documents, Hoffa stood up, took a sip of tea, emptied a little in the chair, and stood up. Walked into the Transmission Gate in the corner and said briefly: "Bach House."
