Chapter 393 Plan 1 is being implemented step by step
On the fifth day after Yang Tian and the others left, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing gently. Elena sat on the windowsill, as if quietly waiting for a result. Until the sun was high in the sky, a gray-brown owl appeared in front of her with a beautiful letter in its mouth.
She took it impatiently and immediately opened the envelope, revealing the Ministry of Magic's employment letter. The words on the letter were clearly visible, indicating that she had been successfully hired by the Ministry of Magic and would be assigned to work in the Department of Magical Sports and Games.
"It seems that things are going well!" Elena was secretly delighted. She immediately contacted Yang Tian through the communication ring to share the good news.
But at this moment, Elena's father, Rey Shafik, walked into the room, his face gloomy and his eyes full of dissatisfaction.
"Huh, is this the position you're pursuing even at the cost of breaking up with your family?" Rey Shafik sneered disdainfully.
Elena's smile disappeared instantly, replaced by a cold expression that never changed. She raised her head, looked directly into her father's eyes, and answered without flinching, "Yes, father, this is my choice."
Rey Shafik clenched his fists in anger, his voice filled with hatred: "The position that your family has secured for you in the French Ministry of Magic is a staff member of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. Although it is not a particularly core department, at least it can be done step by step. And what about you? The Department of Magical Games and Sports? Haha, apart from Quidditch events, what other functions do they have? It's just a waste of time."
"Father, we have had this kind of meaningless dispute countless times. I really don't want to waste my breath on you anymore." Elena still looked cold and indifferent: "Now the family is short-sighted and blocks my resources. I really don't care. But please remember, if I really make a name for myself in the future, the family may not be able to get any help from me."
Lei Yi's face darkened when he heard this. "You don't have to worry about that! The family naturally has its own considerations. How much can someone like you who only cares about yourself and never thinks about the family achieve?"
Elena snorted coldly and responded without showing any weakness: "Humph, you old guys who are about to be eliminated by the times made a foolish decision, do you want me to pay for it with my life? Are you all crazy?"
Lei Yi was so angry that he was shaking all over. "I have told you countless times that you are a member of the Shafik family! Everything you have comes from the Shafik family! Sacrificing for the family is your destiny! Since you can't accept it, please get out of the Shafik family immediately."
As if she had expected this result, Elena remained calm and said, "As you wish, my father. I will report to the Ministry of Magic now, and will never set foot in the Shafik family again. I hope you remember that when the day comes when you really want me to return to the family, I will give you a gift you will never forget."
"Hmph, you're dreaming! Once you step out of this door, you will no longer be part of the family." Rey roared angrily.
Unfortunately, everything was already a foregone conclusion. Elena still turned around and left quietly like an iceberg snow lotus, without even looking at him again from beginning to end...
On the tenth day after Yang Tian and others left, Ludo Bagman walked in the Ministry of Magic building as usual. He was tall and strong, with a pair of round blue eyes, short golden hair, and a rosy face, which made him look like an oversized boy.
His outgoing personality made him quite familiar with his colleagues, and greetings were heard all along the way.
But when he walked into his office laughing and closed the door, everything changed.
But Ludo's smile disappeared as if by magic, and his head drooped involuntarily. He moved himself listlessly to the seat, and his sturdy body made the chair creak.
He sighed and took out a pile of debt receipts and looked at them carefully. Finally, he picked out a receipt with an expiration date. He then rummaged around and took out a bag of gold Galleons and began to stroke it, his heart full of helplessness and reluctance.
But at this moment, there was a fierce knock on the door. Ludo was startled and hurriedly stuffed all his things back into his cloak. He took a deep breath, and a happy smile reappeared on his face: "Come in!"
"Oh no... Oh no, Mr. Bagman~!" An anxious shout sounded at the door.
"Darrell, calm down, you need to calm down." A look of disgust flashed across Ludo's face.
Darrell gasped and tried to calm himself, but it was obviously in vain. He panicked and put a copy of the Daily Prophet on Ludo's desk, stammering, "Mr. Bagman, this is really a big deal."
Ludo frowned and quickly glanced at the front page headlines. The next moment, a chill ran through his body! An article titled "Where Did the Department of Magical Games and Sports' Money Go?" appeared.
This article reveals in detail the past and present of Ludo Bagman: from an international-class batsman, to seeking a position in the Ministry of Magic after retirement, to falling into the abyss of gambling, incurring huge debts, and finally even being involved in bribery... Every detail is listed in great detail, making it impossible to refute.
Ludo clenched his fists and stared at the author column. Sure enough, it was written by Rita Skeeter! Wasn't this girl already on vacation abroad? How did she get such detailed information and how did she pass the article back home?
How could he know that Rita Skeeter was actually in the Yang family in China, and the Yang family's intelligence department had given her a series of intelligence training. However, Ludo Bagman's article had been written before she left, and all the evidence had been collected long ago. It can only be said that the action against Bagman was planned for a long time.
But Ludo didn't have time to understand these details, he was already panicking. A large number of owls had swarmed in and dropped a howler letter into the Ministry of Magic, not only the Department of Magical Games and Sports, but also the offices of the Minister and Deputy Minister.
Ludo was not a smart man, and such a shock made his mind a mess. His instinctive reaction to the crisis made him choose to seek help from his protector and boss, Minister Fudge.
He was seen stumbling and running, not even bothering to knock on the door, and directly pushed open the door of the minister's office, crying out in tears: "Minister Fudge, please save me! Only you can save me now!"
