Hogwarts Emerald

As Thicknesse fell, the splendid hall seemed to have been pressed on the pause button. Everyone's movements stopped at this moment, and the different expressions on their faces also froze.

Aurors, strikers, as well as civilian personnel who later participated in the war, everyone in the ministry was stunned by this sudden news. They were at a loss for a while, and some people even felt despair in their hearts.

No matter how the outside world spreads rumors that Thickness is a puppet, and no matter how resounding Ada's name is, Thickness is the Minister of Magic after all. His death is difficult to accept. At best, it means that the military has lost morale. At worst, it means that there is no bright future.

The dark wizard who broke into the ministry to cause trouble today was also stunned. He looked at Thicknesse's body in disbelief. Why did he die suddenly?

The vast majority of dark wizards and moles know very well that it will be difficult for them to get out of the Ministry of Magic today. Although the death of Thicknesse cannot change this result, at least their deaths have become more meaningful.

They bloodbathed the Ministry of Magic and successfully assassinated the minister. This was the most significant event in their dark wizard careers.

The dark wizard and the mole wanted to thank the man who killed Thicknesse for the "glory" he had bestowed upon them. Thicknesse's death came so suddenly that many people did not react, let alone see who had done it.

Time will not stop forever, and when it starts flowing again, the sound of curses and screams fills the hall again.

For the staff in the ministry, now is not the time to be sad, and there are more than one Thicknesses who have fallen around them. Indulging in sadness will only let yourself go with them.

For the dark wizards, they started killing from the moment the raid was launched. They had already made enough money. Now every time they kill people, they earn money and have one more person to back them up.

Lying on the ground, Rookwood struggled to turn over. His originally shiny hair was now disheveled. He reached out to pick up the wand he had dropped, and aimed the wand at Ada, who had her back turned to him.

He chanted with all his strength: "Avada Kedavra!"

A miserable green light shot out of the wand, filled with Rookwood's hatred and unwillingness.

August Rookwood was a very senior and loyal Death Eater. He was one of the ten Death Eaters who escaped from prison in 1996. Perhaps, before going to the Ministry of Magic, Rookwood knew that this trip was dangerous, but he came anyway.

But this hatred and unwillingness failed to take effect in the end, and Ada deflected the killing curse without even turning her head. Turning around, raising his hand, the red disarming spell knocked away the wand that Rookwood had finally picked up.

"Kill me!" Rookwood shouted, "Kill me! The master will avenge me. Thickness will be your fate! You despicable insects and ants!"

After severely damaging the Ministry of Magic and killing the Minister of Magic, Luke Wood and other Death Eaters completed the tasks assigned by Voldemort at the cost of their lives.

The Elder Wand pointed at Rookwood, and a slender blue flame appeared from the tip of the wand, piercing his chest like a sharp sword. The blue flame began to spread from the wound on the chest, instantly burning Rookwood to ashes.

Ada walked towards the Magic Brothers Fountain, waving her wand as she went.

Every time the Elder Wand fell, it would take away a life. The wand struck down again and again, turning all the dark wizards in sight into dead souls. It seems that only killing can relieve Ada's depression.

The shouts of killing gradually stopped, those who could be caught were caught, and those who could not be caught were killed. The riots caused by Death Eaters, dark wizards, and moles were over. The hall fell into a heart-stopping silence.

A group of people gathered around Thicknesse's body, including Amos Diggory, Rufus Scrimgeour, and others. As Ada approached, the men moved out of the way.

"I want to know what happened," Ada said. "Why he died."

After reinforcements arrived, the number of Aurors guarding Thicknesse also increased accordingly. Ada couldn't understand that so many people guarding him could cost him his life. Ada couldn't understand it. She couldn't understand it very much.

Everyone's eyes were focused on one place. Kneeling next to Thicknesse's body was a woman, Isabel - Thicknessy's secretary who lived with him day and night. Isabel was tied up with ropes, her eyes fixed on the body, with a happy smile on her face.

Although Ada's office is only separated from the minister's office by a wall, the two of them don't have much contact, but Laura always sees her.

"It should be the Imperius Curse," Scrimgeour said. "Isabelle suddenly attacked from behind...attacked Pierce, and the Auror who protected him had no time to react..."

"Poor Pierce, poor Isabel..." an older witch said with a cry, "She has been with Minister Thicknesse since she entered the Ministry of Magic."

Ada nodded and did not continue talking, and the others were not in the mood to talk. Thicknesse's body is right here, and no words will help.

What everyone has to do now is to put the broken Ministry of Magic back together again. We must not let the Ministry of Magic be destroyed like the statue of the Magic Brothers.

The people gathered around the body looked at Ada, including Scrimgeour, waiting for her to give the order. Now only Ada is qualified to do such a thing.

"Activate the emergency plan and restore normal operations in the shortest possible time." Ada ordered. In order to deal with such situations, the Ministry of Magic has an emergency plan.

Ada continued: "I know this is difficult. We have lost too much today, but I hope everyone can do their best. Today will always pass and tomorrow will come."

Everyone took one last look at Thicknesse's body and dispersed, each busy with their own work. Everyone was very clear about their work.

Scrimgeour was to temporarily lead the Legal Enforcement Division until Mr. Weasley returned from Hogsmeade. Their task is the most important. They must not only strengthen the protection of the headquarters, but also guard the traitors who are still alive and pry open the mouths of these traitors.

Staff from the Accident and Disaster Department were responsible for the aftermath. They arranged their dead colleagues neatly at one end of the hall, and organized the injured to go to St. Mungo's for medical treatment under the protection of Aurors...

Under the leadership of Amos Digory, the Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures began to contact centaurs and goblins, and strengthened monitoring of dark tribes such as werewolves to prevent them from taking the opportunity to cause trouble.

…………

Everything is going on in an orderly manner according to the emergency plan, but everyone's face can't hide their sadness. Death is always heavy, and the living will also mourn because of it.

But as Ada said, today will pass and tomorrow will come. The Ministry of Magic must brace itself before tomorrow to face an even more violent storm.

The small hall where the elevator is located is now empty, and the people crowded here have been evacuated.

Ada silently walked into this smaller hall, boarded one of the elevators, and returned to her office.

After returning to the office, Ada threw herself on the soft sofa and dropped her wand. She felt very tired, exhausted both physically and mentally. She closed her eyes and wanted to rest for a while.

Everyone is sad for their dead colleagues and worried about the future of the Ministry of Magic. Only Ada knows that tomorrow may be a more difficult day.
