HP's Platinum Temptation

Chapter 149 Candidates

This time the Death Eaters attacking the Ministry of Magic was mainly planned and implemented by McNeil. Although most of McNeill and the Death Eaters who attacked the Ministry of Magic were killed or captured, they undermined the Ministry of Magic's purpose. Still reached.

What Lucius and the others were most worried about happened.After the original Death Eaters were divided a lot, they have now expanded again.The Dark Lord has never been present in Britain, but the number of Death Eaters is very impressive.This shows that the Dark Lord's comeback this time is not financially stretched because of the loss of followers of the pure-blood family.On the contrary, a careful inspection of the details of this event revealed a signal that the Death Eaters had sufficient funds for their activities.

The Violet Society didn't save Minister Barnold in the end, because the Death Eaters didn't seem prepared to keep her alive in the first place.After capturing her, take her to the room where the bomb was set.And this information came out from the mouth of the captured Death Eater only later.

There are not a few Ministry of Magic officials who died with Minister Barnold.As a result, the Ministry of Magic, which was originally well-organized, became fragmented overnight, and a large amount of information originally stored in the Ministry of Magic was destroyed.Recovery is not an easy task.The British wizarding world thus entered a state of anarchy.

The Wizengamot did not suffer too much damage, and quickly organized a temporary Ministry of Magic.The most urgent problem facing the Provisional Ministry of Magic is the embarrassing question of the new Minister of Magic.

But Clarence had no interest in paying attention to the Ministry's problems.

The night of supporting the Ministry of Magic was actually quite chaotic.Even if everyone escaped from the ruins, the scene was full of wounded people.Without a unified central command, a large number of wizards huddled in place like headless chickens, not knowing what to do.Mrs. Thatcher called Clarence with a water mirror when she heard the report of the earthquake site.In the end, I learned the general situation from Terrence, and deliberately controlled the approach of the Muggle police.

But the battle took place in the middle of the night. If the chaotic scene was not cleaned up, all wizards would soon be seen by Muggles who got up early to work.

So the members of the Violet Society with the largest number were finally organized by Clarence, and a little bit of manpower was arranged to deal with the wounded urgently. They were transferred to St. Mungo's according to the severity of the injury, and the family members were notified.After the coordination, the remnants of the Aurors took on the task of hiding and eliminating all traces of magic within the visible range of Muggles.Some surviving uninjured Ministry of Magic officials and slightly injured people were arranged by the Wizengamot to try to rescue some materials.

After Lucius heard the news of the end of the battle from the Duke of Rezlan, he immediately organized the logistics team of the Violet Society to rush to the scene to replace the combat members just now.

In the end, Clarence stayed and was in charge of handing over the scene with the Muggle aftermath team sent by Mrs. Thatcher.

It was already noon when he returned to Violet Headquarters after finishing all his work.

Clarence didn't even have the strength to take a bath, so he fell on the bed and fell asleep.At this time, the Ministry of Magic was destroyed in the attack, and the issue of the Minister of Magic had not yet passed through the hands of the media, making it known to everyone in the British wizarding community.

Although Lucius felt sorry for Clarence, after listening to the whole process summarized from the mouths of all the participants, apart from admiration, Lucius couldn't pick out any point that could be regarded as a failure.No matter how dignified the atmosphere of the Wizengamot, Auror, or Order of the Phoenix is, the morale of the Violet Order is extremely high.Combat team plus logistical support, Violet Club members who have intuitively experienced Clarence's ability to control the field has exceeded two-thirds of all members.In contrast to the remnants of the Aurors, the satisfaction of the Violet Club with Clarence kept rising through word of mouth among the members.

For this reason, the twelve seats except the Duke of Rezlan specially called Lucius out after Clarence fell asleep to discuss his previous proposal.

Calling the king, this slogan that sounded abrupt at first, has become extremely deceptive now.

After the meeting, all the seats passed this resolution, and quickly started corresponding activities within the Violet Club.

Soon, the news of becoming king spread throughout the Violet Society through gossip.

And all this happened before Clarence caught up with sleep and woke up again.

On the second day after the battle of the Ministry of Magic ended, all the content of the media was broadcast overwhelmingly, all of which were razed to the ground by the Ministry of Magic.Without the restraint of the Ministry of Magic, the media had already become presumptuous before they panicked.At first, the public could not accept this fact at all, thinking it was just a joke made by the media.But since more wizards came to the Ministry of Magic to confirm this statement, it was delayed for a whole day, and the entire wizarding world finally reacted.All of a sudden, all kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky.

After that, everyone began to pay attention to the question of the new Minister of Magic.

The Minister of Magic is generally held by an outstanding wizard with credibility. Although the Wizengamot has more important nomination rights, he cannot ignore public opinion.In the past, although the handover of the Minister of Magic had to go through such a painful process, there had always been advance preparations and the assistance of the previous minister.Today, there is none.

With little hesitation, the Wizengamot sent Dumbledore his first invitation to be Minister for Magic.

Dumbledore replied quickly, and the answer was no, without hesitation.

Although the public is not surprised by this result, it is inevitable that they will be somewhat disappointed.

However, immediately after this invitation letter, there has been no new news from the Provisional Ministry of Magic, which made the public, as dull as the one most influenced by the media, realize that something was wrong.

Who is the second candidate?

The internal conflicts within the Violet Club dropped to an all-time low overnight for reasons unknown to Clarence.Unavoidably arousing Clarence's suspicion, Lucius reasoned that it was because the club members had experienced a big victory, so they didn't care about arguing, and offered to accompany Clarence to go shopping in Diagon Alley to buy things needed for the new school year.

Although Clarence didn't need to do such a thing himself, the date with Lucius was a temptation he couldn't refuse.

Because it was already the end of August, and school would start in a few days, Diagon Alley was crowded with Hogwarts students, as well as parents with students.

Not long after Clarence walked out of the fireplace in the Broken Axe, he encountered excited students greeting him one after another.

"Why do they look at me with strange expressions?" Clarence asked Lucius a little puzzled, "Did something important happen recently?"

"Apart from the attack on the Ministry of Magic, there are no other major events. Aren't you the head of the male student council this year? Maybe it's because of this?" Lucius said with a reason.

"Male student council president, they won't know until after school starts?" Clarence retorted.

"Really? I don't think this result is suspenseful for students other than Hogwarts freshmen. Besides you, are there other students who can convince the crowd?" Lucius asked rhetorically.

Clarence thought for a long time, but couldn't think of any other reason, so he had to give up.

The harmonious calm lasted until they were more than halfway done shopping.When Clarence came to the bookstore, it was already full.This time, Clarence finally realized something was wrong.Because even most of the parents of the students gathered here looked at him with very sincere eyes.

"Mr. Lambert, would you accept the invitation of the Ministry of Magic to serve as the Minister of Magic?" When Clarence went to the counter to check out with his book in his arms, he finally understood everyone from the enthusiastic and positive teller. What is the purpose of the eyes.

At the same time, this sentence also attracted the attention of everyone crowded around the counter.

"I'm sorry, did you misunderstand something? I didn't receive the invitation you said." Clarence replied in a little embarrassment: "Did you misunderstand something?"

"But all the newspapers are speculating that after Mr. Dumbledore, you should be the most likely second candidate. However, the temporary Ministry of Magic did not release any news. Some insiders reported that it seems to be for the You have sent an invitation letter, but you are still considering it." Another adult wizard next to the counter immediately said eagerly: "Our family is very supportive of you! Please don't hesitate!"

"Ah?" Clarence waved his hand again: "I did not receive an invitation from the Ministry of Magic. And I will go back to Hogwarts in a few days to continue my final year of study. Such news should be misinformation. "

In the end, being besieged by a group of inexplicably fanatical supporters, Clarence dragged Lucius out of the siege in embarrassment, and the follow-up shopping plan had to be abandoned.

Both Clarence and Lucius realized that something was wrong with regard to the misinformation about the invitation to be the Minister of Magic.However, Lucius clearly cared more about this topic than Clarence.Insist on figuring out what's going on inside.Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Clarence went with Lucius.

As a result, if you don't check, you don't know. After checking, the whole Violet Club is boiling.

Clarence is currently the second most famous figure in the British wizarding world after Dumbledore, and is also an adult wizard.It was skipped directly by the Wizengamot.In other words, the Wizengamot had no intention of extending such an invitation to Clarence.What's more, they don't want the public to know this fact.Therefore, the method of delay is used to replace the official propaganda with gossip.Attempts to fake the appearance that Clarence, like Dumbledore, declined the invitation.

In fact, apart from Dumbledore and Clarence, there are currently no other candidates in the British wizarding world who can approach the voice of these two people.And Terrence also said that when other candidates for the Minister of Magic were notified to the British Muggle government, they also encountered opposition from the other party.Mrs Thatcher naturally hoped that Clarence, rather than anyone else, would succeed such a post.

After Lucius reported the complete investigation status of this matter at the plenary meeting of the Violet Society.Before Clarence expressed his dissatisfaction, the Violet Society was already raging.

When all the members of the club were expressing their anger to the people around them excitedly, a thunderous speech calmed down the noisy scene, and the big Shafek stood up abruptly, facing Claren who was sitting at the top. Si proposed loudly: "Mr. Lambert, please call yourself king! We are all willing to follow your leadership!"

The author has something to say: Well, even if Clay's reputation has increased, if he is in the top position, it will definitely impact the interest groups that were originally in power, so he was hacked~

The next chapter will probably be about the official return of V University to find big trouble.

There is also playing like L dad running after Clay (should it be counted?)

And buns.

The end of the book should be about five to eight chapters?

So it's not beyond the plan, right?

Then there are a few extra chapters~

Well, it should be no problem to finish by July [-]th at the latest.

The day after tomorrow, the actor pit will be opened!A portal is attached, please support me a lot!
