Chapter 97 Death of the Demon King (2)

Voldemort died that night.The wizarding world was engulfed in unrestrained joy like a carnival.

Dumbledore, Slytherin, Gryffindor, and a few of Malfoy's subordinates were probably the only ones who weren't indulging in the joy.They are all insiders of Horcruxes.

魔法部决定举办一次庆祝晚会,时间定在Voldemort被官方宣布死亡的1981年10月31日的后的第一个星期六,也就是11月7日。

The poor boy who lost his parents——Harry Potter was dubbed "the savior" and "the boy who survived the death curse". The boy is honored, and I don't know if he can make up for the pain of losing his parents.He was brought to the banquet by his godfather, Sirius Black.

Sirius Black was falsely imprisoned and spent four full days in Azkaban before being released.It was not Dumbledore, whom he had always trusted, who rescued him at the critical moment, but his in-law, Lucius Malfoy, who worked in the Department of Legal Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic.While this surprised him, vague doubts arose in his heart.As a rebellious Blake, he may not lack the boldness and bravery of Gryffindor, and he is also enthusiastic and straightforward, but the imprint of the family will not disappear.

Just like when he deliberately disobeyed the dining etiquette to demonstrate to his relatives at school, he would only swipe the knife on the plate to make a series of eye-catching noises, but he couldn't do it like other Gryffindors Just like holding food directly with his hands, Sirius couldn't shake off the paranoia that was deeply rooted in the bones of all Slytherins.During his four days in Azkaban, he thought of his dead parents, his mad sister, and other relatives he didn't want to acknowledge or greet.

When he was released from prison, he returned to No. 12, Grimmauld Square, but only saw his own name on the family hanging stall.

The rest of Blake is gone.Among the few nobles who do not worry about heirs and have many descendants, he is the only one left in the Black family.His friends were also killed and wounded.Prongs and Lily are dead, Wormtail is in jail, and execution is only a matter of time.

When Lucius came to see him in Grimmauld Place, his tone of voice was softer than ever.

"Sirius," he said kindly, sitting in front of the fireplace lit by the elf, "I will help you."Black didn't believe it, he said coldly - in the tone that any Slytherin would express doubts about, "Thanks, no trouble".He didn't even notice the arrogance in his tone.Blake, devastated, retreated into a shell that made him feel safe, a behavior that had been seared into his life since childhood.

However, Lucius opened the swaddle in the hand of the accompanying elf, revealing a little baby.

"Harry", Sirius snatched Harry, not knowing how to stand safely, so he simply put the baby in the most comfortable big armchair in front of the fireplace - where Lucius was originally sitting, On his knees, he reached out to stroke his short black hair and his flushed face.

The baby awoke from sleep, and stared at his godfather with green eyes.

At this moment, Sirius seemed to hear James' footsteps pacing back and forth outside the delivery room that day, and Lily whispered in surprise "Look, this child's eyes are exactly like mine" when he saw his son open his eyes for the first time.That proud, tender look, the way his friends smirked, the memories weighed too heavily on him, and he ignored Lucius.

Malfoy, who was unceremoniously driven up by Black, smiled and left in silence.

Saturday Dinner, Ministry of Magic Hall

"In our history of ups and downs, sometimes missions come to us, and there is always someone who wants to lead the people out of the dark and rugged low canyon to the peaceful and sunny land of hope. And this time, it is you who turn things around" , Slytherin raised his wine glass and congratulated the Minister of Magic who had just sent away a congratulatory crowd.

After drinking the aging potion, Slytherin easily moves among the crowd with his 20-year-old appearance.I don't know whether it was a coincidence or necessity, among the guests present, except for the heroes who fought on the front line, almost everyone knew this silver-haired wizard.Most of the Ministry of Magic officials in the arena have been under his influence, and more than half of them have been controlled by Lucius. Slytherin understands that the peak of a round of fruit picking has arrived.

The Minister of Magic took good advantage of his words, showing a satisfied smile that didn't match the words he had spoken, and said seriously, "The times dictate, it's all the times."

"By the way," Slytherin evoked an elegant smirk, and let go of the 26-year-old female undersecretary of the financial secretary in his arms, an official who was single-handedly selected by his influence, and said, "I am very concerned about the current situation." I have some questions, Minister, I hope you can explain it to me, after all," he nodded slightly at the well-dressed beauty who left with a sense of interest, and sent an apologetic smile, and then said, "You stand tall and see far."

"Of course, the government is to serve the public." The other party evoked a knowing smile, but unfortunately the number of paragraphs was not enough and completely lost the sense of cunning and decent beauty.

They entered the foyer on the south side of the banquet hall and cast enough secrecy spells.

"In order to better heal the wounds and restore people's confidence in the government," the minister put his heavy and obese body on the sofa, took a sip of champagne, and said, "We will introduce some incentive policies for the economy recently."

"I'm very curious about what it is." Slytherin was satisfied to see that this person had treated him as an ordinary pure-blood nobleman.

"Sorry, this is a secret now," the minister suddenly changed his original calm and replied stiffly.

"Of course," Slytherin said, raising his eyebrows slightly, "purely to change the subject, is the Minister planning to be re-elected?"

"Oh," said the minister with another satisfied smile, "that's a good question. I must say, I have no plans for this myself. I'm getting older, my kids are growing up, and I want to spend more time with my wife. Spend some time together. But," he looked at Slytherin, "you know, if the expectations of the people come together, and the demands of society keep calling, then I too will take responsibility, no matter what my own selfishness may be. "

"You are such a noble person." Slytherin said with an admiring expression, "Speaking of which, as a person with a small fortune, I have always hoped to make a little contribution to the trauma of the war. ".He put down the wine glass in his hand and said sincerely, "I have about 2000 million Galleons." He looked at the minister's almost protruding eyes, paused gently, and continued, "But I need someone like you People, a government of your character, to make sure this money is spent wisely. I firmly believe that you are the only one."

"Such things cannot be said with certainty, sir," said the Minister, with a gleam of eagerness in his eyes, "if there were someone more reliable..."

"I don't think so," Slytherin replied, leaning back in his chair. "Like some school headmaster, old Wizengamot, they've been away from actual administrative work for too long, of course given their It is inappropriate to accuse them of relying on the old and selling the old to those who have greyed their hair because of this society."

"You are absolutely right!" The Minister replied happily, "In order to let you understand the current situation, I will send someone to explain the recent economic situation to you as soon as possible." He smiled ambiguously and said, "Do you think the financial How about the undersecretary?"

"A well-learned and well-educated lady is worth studying."Slytherin replied with a sly smile.
