harry potter book of crimes

Maka had been to the new Ministry of Magic many times before, but every time she came and went in a hurry, she didn't pay much attention to the details.

But this time, perhaps because he had completely changed his identity, he suddenly had the feeling of observing the world from another angle.

After passing through the three consecutive gates after inspection, the marble parquet floor that looks like one piece flatly covers the entire oval hall. The towering dome is carved with exquisite patterns, and under the effect of the magic spell, it exudes Misty shimmer.

A circle of pillars are arranged at equal intervals around it, with statues of various magical animals clinging to them. On the top there is even a fire dragon stone sculpture that spans several stone pillars and is comparable in size to the real thing, squinting down.

The more carefully you look at it, the more you can feel the care and attention of the wizards and craftsmen who originally built this town.

Of course, the most important thing in the hall of the new Ministry of Magic is naturally the sand table map model of Spiral Town located in the center. Its level of detail is as if the entire Spiral Town has been scaled down and placed directly here. Generally, the additional magic can feedback the damage of all buildings in the town in real time.

During this period of time, Lu Ping, who was responsible for arranging various defensive measures and guard dispatch within the town, received a lot of help from this sandbox.

"Hermione?"

As soon as he saw them coming in from the door, Lu Ping couldn't help but pause slightly, and then quickly looked back and forth at them.

"Oh, were you the ones who arranged those stone slabs just now? There is another layer of magic shield, which will provide higher defense capabilities for Spiral Town. Thank you for your hard work!"

"It's not hard, this is what we should do." Hermione said as she walked towards the sand table where Lupin was. "I have been thinking about how we can withstand this disaster with our limited abilities. What to do... That set of magic text diagrams is one of them, and what we came to do to you this time is also one of them."

Behind Hermione, Delphi stood silently, leaving the conversation with Lupine to Hermione, who was more familiar with him.

As for the disguised Maka, as the "young wizard Myron", he obviously "didn't know" anyone here, so he naturally stood further back. Of course, with the introverted witch Luo who came with him, Pull together.

"Myron...that is...Mr. Lupin?"

According to some of the "presumptuous remarks" that Lola had said before, Maka knew that she seemed to be a girl with a light appearance association. From this point of view, Lupine's slovenly appearance was probably difficult to It made her feel "overly nervous".

Although I felt a little sorry for Lupin, Maka felt that this might be a good thing.

"Yes! That's Mr. Remus Lupin," Maka tilted her head and whispered, "Despite his appearance, he is actually very kind at heart and likes to interact with young people!"

Unexpectedly, Lola suddenly lowered her head after staring at Lupine for a few more times.

"Oh! His beard... is so sexy."

"What?"

Maka couldn't hold it back, and her voice suddenly became louder, causing Lupine and Hermione who were having a conversation in front of them to turn their heads and look at him.

"Oh, I'm sorry! Please continue"

Maka hurriedly raised his hands and shook them. After the two people in front of him resumed their conversation, he subconsciously touched his chin.

"Is Lupine handsome? Well, it seems Tonks needs to keep a closer eye on him."

After such a casual errand, Maka quickly brought her thoughts back to the conversation between Hermione and Lupin.

But in fact, there was no need for him to listen carefully, because at this moment it was basically Hermione describing Delphi's proposal and trying to persuade Lupine to agree to this remedy.

What's more, Maka already knows what the outcome will be.

The only thing he needs to know right now is probably some of the details of Delphi's arrangements during this evacuation support operation.

"...Anyway, Lupin, I want us to call in volunteers to go to the rear of the battlefield to speed up the evacuation of the Muggle residents. This should be a plan that has no harm at all. The defense force here in the town is not enough, I believe.

You have also been worried about the repeated retreat of the front line, haven't you?"

Hermione's well-founded argument made it difficult for Lupine to make a convincing rebuttal to her even if he didn't want them to take risks.

That's right, if the evacuation team is overtaken by the zombie army ahead, the number of casualties among the Muggle people will inevitably rise sharply. And this is undoubtedly something that neither he nor the Muggles can accept.

At that time, if the Muggle royal family can no longer hold back, Bao Buqi will unilaterally use some means that harm others and not benefit themselves to try to suppress greater losses.

However, it is still unpredictable what effect those unconventional and extreme methods will have on the army of zombies with the ability to resuscitate!

"Yes, Hermione, I have to admit that you are right," Lupine rubbed his temples and sighed, "So be it! Only Faversham, the town closest to here, can lead a team

A group of volunteers will cooperate with the Muggle army to evacuate the residents there as soon as possible, so the overall progress should be barely enough."

Having said this, Lu Ping couldn't help but reiterate very seriously:

"But remember, it's only in Faversham Town. If something unexpected happens, come back immediately. Do you understand?"

"Well," Hermione heard this, thought about it for a moment, then nodded and said, "Indeed, in this case, we should be able to barely catch up... I understand, let's do it like this!"

Before she finished speaking, she finally turned around again and looked at Maka, who was standing with Lola...or rather, it was the young wizard Myron that Maka was pretending to be.

"Please inform your companions who are recruiting volunteers that this operation has been approved by the Ministry of Magic. Volunteers who want to participate can gather in the central square and stand by."

When Maka heard this, the corner of her eye rested on Delphi's back for a moment, and then she was about to agree.

After all, it is not difficult to deal with those hot-blooded young men and women. As long as he shows a like-minded appearance, no one will find that he is actually a stranger who does not know both sides.

However, before he could speak, Lu Ping stepped forward before him.

"No need, leave these preparations to the Ministry of Magic! Including recruiting volunteers, it will be more efficient if I have people do it. So far, there is not much time left for us!"

As Hermione said, Lupine had obviously been worrying about not having enough time to evacuate.
