Chapter 335: The combination of intrigues

Chapter 335: The combination of intrigues
"You deserve this compliment," Schelling said with a smile, and then he said solemnly: "The major factions in the Ministry of Magic have always been xenophobic, and a little-known little wizard has actually become a popular figure - I think this is very suspicious. , inform Pillsworth to send more people to monitor this Gules Misted... and also inform Rita to check the details of this person... I suspect that this may not be his real name at all..."

Susan didn't expect that Xie Lin would pay so much attention to her casual mention without confidence. She immediately looked solemn and said, "Understood, I will give priority to getting this matter done later."

"Well," Schelling then asked again, "Is there anything else worth mentioning about the Ministry of Magic?"

"There are still some -" Susan said slowly: "As for the Aurors, Scrimgeour has made great efforts to rectify the internal situation. Some unruly Aurors have been temporarily suspended, and some of them are quite powerful in magic." Susan said: "There is no better way for Scrimgeour to deal with them. After all, they have not made any mistakes. We cannot really fire them."

Schelling nodded to express his understanding. Even though Scrimgeour was the nominal leader of all Aurors, as the highest combat power in the Ministry of Magic, how could the Aurors not have internal struggles for power, especially among the major political factions? Under the influence, it is not surprising that people with different intentions appear.

In the original book, Aurors Tonks and Kingsley were Dumbledore's undercover agents, and Umbridge was also able to use five Aurors, including John Dollis, without the approval of the Department of Legal Enforcement. The arrest of Hagrid, who was innocent of any charges, obviously showed that there were also her confidants among the Aurors.

The world of the original book is like a fairy tale. After the young hero Harry defeated the big devil, everyone had a happy ending. In fact, Voldemort only represents conservative ideas in the political and business circles, and the three little brats with no power are, at most, Just become the next puppet manipulated by major political forces.

Although Rowling once said about the development of the original characters after the ending, Schelling sometimes suspected that this was Rowling's nonsense-since Schelling traveled into this real world, and Rowling finished writing "The Deathly Hallows" The time was 2007, when Hermione had only graduated nine years ago. How did Rowling know about the subsequent development.

All in all, you can’t go wrong by keeping an eye out.

Susan said in a clear tone: "Since the death of Kingsley Shacklebolt, Fudge's confidants have become John Delis and Williamson; and Umbridge also has at least three Auror choices. Although I am not 100% sure of their identities, I already have a clue..."

"Very well, send a copy of these materials to Scrimgeour -" Sherling sneered: "But tell him that there is no need to alert the snake for the time being. In the next school year, we will still need Fudge and Umbridge to suppress Dumbledore." Lido, the combat power of several Aurors still needs to be given to them."

"Then, there should be no large-scale personnel transfers." Susan thought for a while and then said: "If I have to say it, Cuthbert Mockridge retired from the position of director of the Goblin Liaison Office and replaced him. It was a young man named Dirk Cresswell..."

A gleam flashed in Xie Lin's eyes. He was familiar with the original novel in his previous life, so he was naturally familiar with the name Dirk Cresswell.

Dirk Cresswell was born into a Muggle family and studied in Ravenclaw House, one grade below Lily Potter. While in school, he showed excellent learning talent. After obtaining extremely impressive OWL scores, he also took a minor in a foreign language in addition to his major courses in the sixth grade - Elf Language, which is Slahao One of En's most protégés.

After Dirk joined the job, Dirk continued to keep in touch with Professor Slughorn and often revealed some internal information about Gringotts Wizarding Bank to him. In the original book, Dumbledore even mentioned that the good relationship Slughorn maintained with Cresswell would give him the opportunity to recommend a clerk to the Goblin Liaison Office.

What a pity for this talent. After the British Ministry of Magic was controlled by Voldemort, Dirk tried to forge a family tree to prove his identity as a wizard to save his life, but was exposed by Albert Runcorn. In order to avoid being sent to Azkaban Prison, he knocked out the Auror escorting him and escaped, but was eventually caught and killed by the search team.

Of course, Schelling would never let this happen in this world.

If the magical world with a small population wants to reform and develop, it cannot do without talents, and any talent is valuable. "As far as I know, Cresswell's eldest son Gabriel just entered school last September and is in Ravenclaw Academy - Zhang Qiu and Luna." Xie Lin looked at the two women and said, "Are you familiar with him? "

Zhang Qiu shook his head slightly. She and Luna were both responsible for recruiting young wizards for the Sleeping Dragon Club in Ravenclaw, but she and Creswell were four years apart.

Luna smiled and said: "I know him, he has a lot of troubles..." She said softly: "He seems to be unable to easily integrate into the small group. I persuaded him... I think he should quite believe it. my words……"

"Very good, the responsibility of recruiting him to join the club will be left to you, Luna...Susan, send a message to Professor Slughorn and ask him to mention something to Mr. Creswell to reassure him. Our Mianlong Society takes care of his children—" Xie Lin said coldly: "Of course it's not free. I need a vacant seat in the Fairy Liaison Office, and I know he can do it."

Of course Schelling knew that this was possible for Dirk. In the original work, Professor Slahorn got this benefit - this time, Schelling planned to bypass Professor Slahorn and take this opportunity directly. come over.

Xie Lin then looked at Gu Lie and Weniya, and said: "I remember that there are many members of the Sleeping Dragon Club in the seventh grade who are about to graduate, right?"

"Yes," Gulie responded in a deep voice: "Including the two of us, there are 12 people in total."

"I'll leave this matter to you, Gulie." Xie Lin said: "You can arrange it and see who is suitable and assign him to the position of the Fairy Liaison Office."

"it is good."

"What about the rest?" Xie Lin asked: "Do they have plans after graduation?"

"Three people will join the Ministry of Magic. They will first try out the selection of Aurors -" Guile thought for a moment, "Two of them plan to go back to help take care of the family business, and then one of them will go to St. Mungo's to apply for a therapist. , I haven’t decided where to go for the rest.”

"Those who haven't planned where to go, just stay and help me!" Schelling said, "The Miracle Alchemy Workshop in Hogsmeade Village is an industry under my name. They can work there in name. In fact, I came here through the secret passage there to help Susan with intelligence work. The salary is not a problem, I guarantee it will not be worse than working outside. "

"Okay!" Guile and Venia looked at each other and said, "Then let's make arrangements now - in case their plans change. As for those who apply for jobs at the Ministry of Magic and St. Mungo's, if they don't succeed in the end, we We will also arrange for them to come here.”

Seeing Xie Lin nod, the two immediately left.
