#496 - I don't understand (seeking monthly ticket recommendation ticket)

Silver Spear pondered for a moment after hearing Clement's request.

Logically speaking, with Clement's qualifications, abilities, and the loyalty he had shown for so many years of service to the club, he was already qualified to become a Silver Spear.

However, since a few years ago, in consideration of Germany's grand strategy, the club had to give priority to pulling several local target wizards into the fold, so it tightened the review of other Silver Spear members.

Therefore, for veteran collaborators like Clement, the club had been dangling them for a long time, euphemistically saying that their merits were insufficient, but in fact, they had no intention of admitting them into the club in the short term.

Moreover, these collaborators were indeed very capable. If they were to become Silver Spears and their promotion speed was too fast to become Spears, they would not be able to continue to work for the club under their overt identities.

So the Silver Spear had to continue to perfunctorily say, "You did a really good job this time, but after all, we haven't seen the benefits yet, so your request to officially join cannot be approved. Don't worry about this. We see your contributions. Once the next stage of the goal is achieved, we will give priority to fulfilling your request."

The shrewd Clement could tell that the other party was being perfunctory, but since the adult had already said so, it would seem petty for him to continue pestering him, so he could only nod in frustration.

"By the way," Silver Spear changed the subject, "Recently, many small groups advocating the restoration of unification have appeared in East and West Germany. Have you received any news about this?"

"Are you talking about small societies like the 'Berlin United Front'? In my opinion, these are just a group of wizards getting together to entertain themselves. Their numbers don't seem to exceed ten people, and most of the internal members are couples from both East and West Germany. It doesn't seem like there's anything worth paying attention to," Clement tilted his head to recall, and then respectfully said.

"No..." Silver Spear shook his head upon hearing this, "According to the information we have, these small societies are not as simple as they seem."

"Oh? What do you mean? There are other people supporting them behind the scenes?" Clement looked at Silver Spear with some surprise.

"That's right, they were just making a small fuss at first, but before long, these societies increased sharply in both number and activity. The 'Berlin United Front' you just mentioned has swelled to more than twenty people."

"And now they are also starting to spend money on advertising in major newspapers and magazines. The day before yesterday, they also distributed leaflets and gave speeches in two wizarding communities at the same time. This is obviously an organized behavior," Silver Spear shook his head coldly and revealed some of the information he knew to Clement.

"The sudden appearance of organized protest societies at this time, is it because our recent actions have been too high-profile, causing someone to notice something and want to go against us?" Clement's brain quickly turned, "Could it be that guy Andrei who is opposing us? He has always been an extremist who opposes division, and it is possible that he is the one causing trouble behind the scenes."

"Him? Heh..." Silver Spear sneered upon hearing this, "That guy probably doesn't have the brains for it, or rather, he's not the kind of person who likes to beat around the bush."

"Then who else could it be besides this guy? The other party is obviously prepared," Clement stroked his beard and fell into deep thought.

"This is what we want to know too, but no matter who is behind them, we must prevent these societies from growing further," Silver Spear's tone gradually became extremely stiff as he said this.

"Then what do you mean, sir?" Clement knew that he was probably going to do dirty work again.

"When the other party is going to carry out group activities next time, I will notify you in advance. You arrange for the 'West German Advancement Association' to go over and make trouble. It is best to provoke a conflict, and even use force, but don't kill anyone."

"In short, at least make the people who have just joined these societies feel scared, indirectly forcing them to withdraw, reduce the power of these societies, and preferably push them completely to one side of East and West Germany." At this point, Silver Spear's tone had become very cold and chilling.

"Understood, this is similar to what we did before, except that in the past we involved the people next to us in the brawl, but now we are only targeting them," Clement nodded knowingly.

"The situation is similar. In short, you have to grasp the degree of it. It would be even better if you can force out the people behind them. You better be able to control the scene personally and don't let the situation get out of control." Although Clement had done many similar jobs, Silver Spear repeatedly urged him.

"Yes, sir." Clement bowed deeply and respectfully, and then looked at the other party with some embarrassment, "By the way, the 'West German Advancement Association' is running out of activity funds. You also know that many people here are just doing things for money."

"I know, I will make up for it when I give you the money next time." Silver Spear's voice also lowered upon hearing this. In the past two years, the club had been moving too fast, and it was almost impossible to sustain itself with just the income and savings from the black market, which made him feel a little annoyed.

"Thank you, sir." Clement was very satisfied with this point of the club, dedicated funds for special purposes, and the expenses of different projects would not be used interchangeably.

"There's one more thing..." Silver Spear slowly put his hands behind his back as he said this, "In the future, some magical creatures need to be transported out of Zone One on a regular basis every month. After you go back, re-statistics the existing categories of magical creatures and mark those that are not in pairs and are older."

"Oh? Didn't you say before that the magical creatures in the park would not flow into the black market? Is there a big customer?" Clement rarely saw Silver Spear's request. Since he started managing Zone One, he had never seen any transportation of magical creatures except for those old ones.

"Don't ask too much about what you shouldn't ask. These magical creatures are not being transported to the black market. Someone will come to receive them at that time, but the most recent time will be in half a month. In short, act according to my orders," Silver Spear reprimanded impatiently.

"Yes! Sir, I was abrupt." Although Clement felt a little inexplicable, he still lowered his head respectfully.

However, Silver Spear did not blame the other party again, "Well, do you have anything else? I'll go back if there's nothing else."

Clement tilted his head to recall upon seeing this, and then seemed to remember something, "By the way, when negotiating with that Anduin before, he seemed to have expressed that he wanted to see you. I promised him that I would say hello to you."

"Want to see me? Did he say what was the matter?" Silver Spear raised his eyebrows under the mask with some surprise. He didn't remember knowing the other party.

"It's just a routine greeting, but he seems to have the intention of opening a Silver Shine Bank branch in Germany. Fortunately, you didn't meet him in time, otherwise my business with him would probably not have been negotiated," Clement casually repeated what he had seen and heard before.

"I see, it seems that this young British entrepreneur has quite a lot of ambition." Silver Spear snorted coldly upon hearing this, "I know about this. You can reply to him and I will arrange to meet him in the near future."

"Okay, sir, in that case, I have nothing else to bother you with." Clement said this and bowed again respectfully.

"Okay, remember what I told you!" Silver Spear nodded slightly, then flicked his sleeves and turned back into the black mirror, and as before, as the other party's figure became smaller and smaller in the mirror with his pacing, and gradually disappeared.

After finally seeing off the Silver Spear, Clement couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Although it's not much, it's at least solved the gap of 3,000 Galleons. I should be able to raise the remaining 2,000 Galleons if I think of a way. It's just a pity that half of the deal I got has to be given away."

Clement sighed helplessly, then restored the secret room to its original state, and returned to the office outside.

Then for a long time after that, Clement was conscientiously handling official business in the office.

And he also had a secretary in the black market who knew a lot of secrets, it seemed that he usually shuttled between the black market and the park.

Hogg and Anduin, who were far away in the Duden House, were looking at each other in front of the monitor at this time, and a little confusion appeared in their eyes.

"Sir, can you see what's going on?" Hogg looked at Anduin beside him in confusion.

"I don't know, this situation is simply incredible. You also heard that the other party's voice is the same as the Golden Flyer's that day," Anduin knew what Hogg was asking, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

"Yes, although his tone of voice was different when facing the Ashwinder and when facing Clement, if you identify it from the voice and conversation habits, it is clearly the same person."

"But Clement clearly said just now that you wanted to see him, so it means that Clement is very sure that the person in front of him is Minister Pete, whom we often talk about, and after the Silver Spear's response, it is equivalent to admitting that he is Pete."

"In other words, we can be sure that this Minister Pete is the Golden Flyer himself!"

"But the problem is, the location of that Minister Pete is clearly in the Ministry of Magic right now!"

"Could it be that he really used the 'Time-Turner' as you said, so that he can frequently appear in two places at the same time?" Hogg raised his head and glanced at the monitor, and looked at the 'location map' in his hand with incomprehension. His head was dizzy now.

"No..." Anduin still shook his head a little unwillingly, "No one can use the 'Time-Turner' frequently for a long time, and it can be determined that before the other party entered the Ministry of Magic, he was acting and engaging in politics as Pete. I think there must be something hidden in this that we don't know."
