Smoke was constantly rising from the Ministry of Magic at night, and the air was filled with a pungent smell. Above the Ministry of Magic headquarters, around Whitehall in central London, there was a scene even more panicked than the wizards.

If the Ministry of Magic is the administrative center of the British wizarding community, then Whitehall is the seat of the British government center. Many departments, including the British Ministry of Defense, the Horse Guards Parade Ground and the British Cabinet Office, are located here. Therefore, "Whitehall" "The term is also synonymous with the British central government.

Only a small number of the Aurors who returned at this time went in to put out the fire, while most of them had already taken over and surrounded the area.

The Aurors and other departments of the Ministry of Magic were slowly pointing their wands from the ground to the pavements and sky around Whitehall, deploying an invisible energy field in the streets and alleys, and at the same time deployed a large number of Muggle expulsion spells to prevent it. As more and more Muggles were alerted and wizards returned, they began to expand this area in order to maintain the secrecy law. The isolation range expands the entire Whitehall area on the ground into the energy field.

Rows of policemen, armed with live ammunition, stood there blankly, their eyes out of focus. Many fire trucks have arrived at the scene, but the firefighters have not started their work. Like the police, they, together with some high-level Muggle government officials who have arrived, are being rescued by the Ministry of Magic's Incident Reversal Team, the Memory Cancellation Command, and the Muggle The Wizards took control of the Problem Reconciliation Committee and began to gradually clear and reverse the bad memories of tonight.

There have been many Muggles who turned around and left after their memories were twisted to show that there was night fog in London, and went back to do their own things step by step, as if nothing unusual had happened.

Like a silent rock, the Muggle Prime Minister, standing in the middle of the street, had just watched helplessly as his colleagues, bodyguards, troops, and policemen, familiar and unfamiliar faces to him, sluggishly froze, and then came to life again... In front of the wizards, Those agents were manipulated by the wizards without any ability to fight back, and were at the mercy of the other party.

Although the Prime Minister had long known from previous contacts that the power of wizards was not comparable to that of ordinary people, witnessing such a large number of ordinary people being controlled and such a disparity in strength filled his heart with fear and despair. The muscles from his neck to his shoulders all the way to his thighs were stiff, and his whole body seemed to be under a freezing spell, so cold that he couldn't move.

The Prime Minister also knows the reason why he can still stand here soberly: he has witnessed with his own eyes the explanation given by a Russian who used to be his subordinate, Christopher Lee, under the pseudonym Christopher Lee, so that he does not have to have his memory erased.

But that's all. The Prime Minister's former 'man' didn't say a word to the Prime Minister. He just left the Prime Minister here, as if he was transparent. Then he noticed the British Ministry of Magic. The arrival of Minister Owen Harris.

The Prime Minister immediately raised the corner of his mouth and showed a mask-like smile, wanting to say hello to his acquaintance Owen, but Owen was in a hurry to get down at this time and had no intention of paying attention to a Muggle. He turned around and noticed the long eyes, and ordered: "Changyan, come and entertain the Prime Minister."

Before Long Eye could respond, Owen walked directly to the newly repaired phone booth elevator, ignoring the Muggle Prime Minister, as if he hadn't seen him just now.

Different from the friendly reception he usually received when getting along, the Muggle Prime Minister felt ignored and deflated. He pinched his palms and tried his best to control his emotions. He greeted the long-eyed man who came closer and tried to make his voice sound braver. : "Li, you... um... your... I mean, what's going on with this fire?"

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, a Death Eater came over and set off a huge fire." Longyan's tone was as gentle as ever, "Don't worry, the arsonist has been killed by us."

"Death Eaters, are those people you mentioned? Did they fight back to England?" The Prime Minister was a little annoyed because of his long-eyed tone, but after hearing the content clearly, he pinched his palms hard to make his voice sound calm. So frightened - he estimated that if the disasters caused by the previous Death Eater attacks happened again, the people would not believe in hurricanes and the like.

"Oh? Your Excellency, you are worrying too much. In fact, this is their last struggle." Changyan noticed the Prime Minister's worries, and he decided to reveal some facts to the other party to enhance their confidence, "The minister's son Alan Harris The headmaster defeated their leader, the Dark Lord, some time ago, so our Ministry of Magic arrested families in the country that have ties to the Death Eaters a few days ago. This is just their desperate revenge."

The Prime Minister asked in surprise: "Mr. Alan Harris defeated the mysterious man? Will no bad guys or dementors come to cause trouble in the Muggle world in the future?"

"Your Excellency... Just like you can't guarantee that there are no criminals in your country, I can't guarantee that no one in our world will continue to commit some criminal acts... At least recently, there have been illegal incidents of people forgetting to activate stealth mode and driving flying cars in the Muggle world. Quite a lot." Long Eyes responded, and then he smiled at the Prime Minister, "But it is true that large-scale vicious incidents are rare in the British Muggle world."

"That couldn't be better!" The Muggle Prime Minister breathed a sigh of relief.

Today's events made the Muggle Prime Minister panic. Some of the Muggle Prime Minister's economic subordinates who already knew the inside story speculated from the cooperation project that the British Ministry of Magic was probably subject to economic sanctions from other magical countries. And he understood that it was this sanction that made their current relationship with the wizard look good because of cooperation.

However, the Prime Minister was previously wary of this close relationship and being happy about the growing economy. However, the subsequent contact and the other party's current behavior made him somewhat fortunate: the other party did not seem to have any intention of ruling the world. , even wizards have generally looked down on ordinary people - this bad sense that they used to feel that they were discriminated against now makes the Muggle Prime Minister feel some sense of security.

later.

Underground in Whitehall, in the hall of the Ministry of Magic, there was no obvious fire or smoke at the fire scene. Aurors and Ministry of Magic staff had stopped casting spells to put out the fire, which meant that the fire had been effectively controlled.

Only some fragments of the ruins inside the Ministry of Magic are still smoking. Although various interior decorations and items have been burned, the main structure of the Ministry of Magic has been preserved. The Harrises who came over and their subordinates were organizing regardless of exhaustion. Workers are required to perform statistics and repairs.
