The Daily Life of Wizards [British and American]

Chapter 11: Overwhelming Government Agencies

If we only rely on the lingering impression of the 'fairy tale' in our heads, we will inevitably look down on government agencies in the wizarding world.

But in fact, even if a legal government agency has a very small number of citizens under its jurisdiction, it will gradually improve the most basic institutional framework in the gradual development of history.

The Ministry of Magic of the British wizarding world is mainly divided into seven departments: the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters, the Department of Regulation and Control of Fantastic Beasts, the Department of International Magical Cooperation, the Department of Magical Transport, the Department of Magical Sports, and the Department of Magical Affairs.

Moreover, the departments under the jurisdiction of each division are very cumbersome and meticulous. It can be said that although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

After understanding these common senses, it is easy to understand that if the formal procedures are followed, the issue of the Black family should be attributed to the issue of inheritance and can only be handled by the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

However, the biggest problem arises: there is no "Law of Inheritance" in the wizarding world.

In the earliest days, pure-blood nobles always had a little secret of their own family.They have never needed outside guidance in choosing their heirs.

Occasionally, when the pure blood is cut off and the family has no heirs, a declining family without an heir naturally has no way to raise any objections to its own property.At this time, the Ministry of Magic will graciously take the family into public ownership (as for what will be done in private, I don't know).

These rules are not stated on the surface, but they are unspoken rules that have been agreed in the dark.

But the situation of the Black family is a bit different. The direct blood relatives are almost cut off, Regulus is missing (now judged dead by the Ministry of Magic), Sirius is in prison (the Ministry of Magic believes that the prisoner has lost his right of inheritance), so, on the bright side The Black family also experienced a severed bloodline.

Coupled with the sudden downfall of the mysterious person, the Ministry of Magic took advantage of the chaos to collect all the properties of the Black family, calling it 'escrow'.

And Daniel appeared in this situation.

If he is the brother of Sirius and Regulus, he can avoid these rules logically, use the name of direct blood relative to inherit the family in an upright manner, and directly ask the Ministry of Magic to transfer the so-called "assistant management" of the Black family property hand it over.

But unfortunately, Daniel's father is not the head of the Black family. Back then, he could only be regarded as the second heir. Now that it has been passed down to his son's generation, his reputation is even more dishonorable.

Even though there are only two blood relatives left in the Black family (Sirius is in Azkaban Prison), he still needs to pass the trial of the Wizengamot under the Department of Magical Law Enforcement to obtain the official inheritance.

In the trial, there is no fixed and authoritative inheritance law, which means that the decision whether Daniel can inherit the Black family depends not on the rules and laws, but on the votes of the fifty members of the Wizengamo. .

To be honest, this kind of voting is really one-sided and not fair enough.

In this regard, the speculator Lucius seized the time to rob: "If Daniel agrees to let the Malfoy family have a stake in a certain industry of the Black family that manufactures magic equipment, he will be happy to help his relatives get some of the threats." A regular member of Sengama'.

However, even Narcissa did not raise objections.

She was also born as a wizard and a pure-blood noble, so she was used to this kind of exchange of benefits. 'There is no such thing as a free lunch, if you want help from others, you must pay the same price'.

Daniel also nodded generously in agreement, because his ambition is not here.

Compared with inheriting a family that has declined in the wizarding world and taking on the responsibility of 'restoring the family's glory', he felt that 'putting the entire British wizarding world' on the screen of the Muggle world was more challenging and artistic.

Moreover, think about it, when that day comes, it will be too late to avoid being chased by the "exposed" wizards, and there will be no time to manage the family business of the Black family... Maybe, at that time, you can consider getting Sirius come out?It can be regarded as worthy of the old man who died young.

I don't know the crazy plan in his heart.

Daniel's straightforward attitude was appreciated by Malfoy.

A wizard from a foreign country came to the unfamiliar British magic world alone and without help. It is undoubtedly a wise choice to make a timely decision to make concessions and make reliable allies.

'Well, for Cici's sake, I will take care of you in the future. '

Malfoy gave a smug smile.

However, what he doesn't know is that due to the super beauty of the Platinum family, Daniel has managed to take pictures of 'Malfoy photos - home articles, Malfoy photos - banquet articles, Malfoy photos - conversations Articles 'and so on a series of exquisite picture collection'.

'Together, you can make a platinum family calendar, notebook or washi tape!After the documentary is finished, the corresponding peripheral sales can also be launched at the same time... Perfect! '

Daniel seemed to see piles and piles of dollar bills flying towards him, so he couldn't help but feel very happy.

Just right, he and Lucius looked at each other, both showing 'happy cooperation' expressions.

Then, everyone laughed.

At the same time, Mr. Mycroft Holmes is facing his greatest nemesis in this life-his younger brother, Sherlock Holmes.

"You can be more childish." Mycroft rubbed his temples on both sides, and said to his younger brother sitting on his desk in a mocking and helpless tone: "You are not three years old anymore, Sherlock , can you occasionally know the severity?"

"Of course, of course, I can satisfy you. As long as you tell me the name and address of the mysterious survivor who escaped from the 'taxi killer', I will leave here immediately." A thin man with a straight nose and bright eyes , the man with slightly thin lips replied quickly.

He has curly hair and is wearing a shirt and a suit, but he has no serious appearance at all. He sits unrestrained and very unruly on the long desk of Mycroft.Facing Mycroft, he leaned down, almost lying on the table, staring into the other's eyes in a posture that can't be called good-looking, and asked enthusiastically and stubbornly: "Come on, tell me Me, Mycroft, who is he? Is it a newcomer under your command? Or is there a new super agent in kingsman? Did he use some black technology that can suddenly disappear or become invisible? The 'taxi killer' was But I was scared to death by him, and almost went home and quit... Fortunately, he continued, otherwise, I would have lost a lot of fun, thank God..."

"It's not something to be happy about the failure of a serial killer." Mycroft interrupted. He glanced at Sherlock with sharp eyes, and asked cautiously, "How do you know kingsman?"

"Oh..." Sherlock rolled his eyes cunningly, trying to hide the small matter of 'I once again used Mycroft's authority to access some files that shouldn't be seen'.

"I saw it by accident!" In the end, he said in a nonchalant tone, not so seriously.

"Sherlock!" Mycroft tried to criticize his behavior in a stern tone: "I remember I said, don't do dangerous things."

"But this is not a dangerous thing, you haven't told me the answer yet." Curly-haired detective swore to return to the topic again, "Who is that person? What identity? What ability? I am grateful Very interesting, tell me, Mycroft. Tell me quickly, satisfy my curiosity, and I will let you continue to recover."
