Chapter 1676 A war without a winner (one hundred and twenty-six)
"Is it really necessary to do this?"
If possible, Mrs. Parkinson did not want to return to England at all, let alone negotiate with Kingsley in private. Sometimes it was difficult for her to understand what was going on in her husband's mind.
You must know that the Parkinson family has always been a wealthy family among wizards. The inheritance passed down from their ancestors means that their family members no longer need to worry about Galleons, and there is no need to try to seize the Malfoy family's inheritance.
Although that is indeed a huge legacy, isn't it good to live well?
"It is very necessary, and this has nothing to do with the inheritance of the Malfoy family." Mr. Parkinson's tone was very calm, as if he had already been mentally prepared and could face his own life and death calmly.
"What's the problem?"
"Voldemort failed, and our previous investment was in vain. Since we made a mistake, we need to pay the price." Mr. Parkinson knew very well that with Kingsley's behavior, once they really choose to flee the UK, not only the Malfoy family
Their inheritance will be confiscated by the Ministry of Magic to cover the mess caused by Voldemort's remnants, and their family's inheritance in Gringotts Warehouse will most likely not be able to escape.
Don't think that the goblins in Gringotts are so tough. They bowed their heads in front of Voldemort, and they will probably bow their heads in front of the Ministry of Magic.
"I must keep the family. This is the simplest and most effective way at present." Mr. Parkinson looked at his wife seriously and said: "We cannot lose the wealth in Gringotts. Even if there is some left abroad, it will lead to Parkinson's death."
The Kinson family has begun to decline in my generation, and we need to think about Pansy's children."
This is the best way to break the situation. As long as he uses his own death to cleanse the entire family, he can not only save his own family, but also allow his grandsons to inherit the wealth of the Malfoy family. The most important thing is those who jumped ship and survived.
The remnants of Voldemort all owe favors to the Parkinson family. Those who have made an unbreakable oath can help the whole family get through the period of weakness in the shortest possible time without any harm. Therefore, Mr. Parkinson simply chose to face death.
.
For this reason, Mrs. Parkinson was finally convinced by her husband, because she knew in her heart that some things would not change according to her will.
If Pansy and Malfoy's child had not been a boy, Mrs. Parkinson would most likely not have returned to England!
After the two parties found a tacit understanding on this matter, the follow-up progress became faster than they expected, and various details were quickly finalized. As for the pure-blood family that could successfully jump ship, they naturally had no say.
It would be nice to get out of this matter.
On the day when Mr. Parkinson was interviewed by the Ministry of Magic, Kingsley, witnessed by members of the Wizengamot, sent away "Mr. Hero" who was killed by an unbreakable spell, and obtained the information of Voldemort's remnants from him.
list and the stronghold where they kept a large number of werewolves.
That night, under the cover of darkness, the Aurors arrested the most important Death Eaters on the list and "completely" wiped out Voldemort's remnants.
The crime was found on the spot: assaulting an Auror.
It seems normal to attack an Auror and be shot to death, because only Voldemort's remnants would attempt to resist. Otherwise, they would not die at all even if they drank Veritaserum.
The shocking move of the Ministry of Magic really shocked many people. No one expected that the remnants of Voldemort, who had brought great harm to the entire British wizarding world, would be completely destroyed like this, and were betrayed by their own people.
Just as Mr. Parkinson thought, because of his actions, the reputation of the Parkinson family was completely washed away from the stain of supporting Voldemort.
Especially after people learned that Voldemort's remnants secretly created a large number of werewolves, no one would say that the Parkinson family had taken refuge in Voldemort.
If Mr. Parkinson hadn't used his own life to deliver this part of the news to them, God knows what terrible things would happen next full moon.
But how to deal with these werewolves has become Kingsley's biggest headache.
Kill them all?
Kingsley did not want to be regarded as a crazy executioner, so after receiving Albert's private advice, he convened an interim meeting of the Wizengamot the next day and chose to bring this matter to the table for discussion.
To be honest, no one wants to take the blame.
But the matter had to be resolved anyway, so they finally chose from Kingsley's several offers to let them leave peacefully.
After all, the entire British wizarding world would never allow such a huge werewolf to exist. It would definitely be irresponsible for everyone's safety, but no one wanted to take the blame. So, under the advice of a smart Wizengamot member
, the Ministry of Magic quickly disclosed the whole process completely, and after explaining the matter in detail, they pretended to leave the life and death of the werewolf to the vote of the wizards in the British magical community.
"In the face of their own interests and life safety, no one can be hypocritical anymore." Looking at the disparity in results published in the newspaper, Albert commented calmly,
This result did not surprise Albert too much. He estimated that many people had broken their defenses because of this.
"If there are only a few werewolves, there might be a large number of wizards who don't take it too seriously and come out to blame the Ministry of Magic." When Albert put down the newspaper to talk about this matter with other professors, he also mentioned his own feelings about it.
view of things.
But there are too many werewolves.
It is impossible to accept. Normally you can't see werewolves, let alone hundreds of werewolves pouring in all at once. No matter how much you have the heart of a holy mother, you must think twice about the consequences of doing that.
Looking at the almost one-sided situation, everyone suddenly realized that none of them were as kind as they thought.
Many wizards also scolded Kingsley, but that made no sense at all. He had made it very clear that the lives of hundreds of werewolves could not be decided by him alone, so he chose to convene a Wizengamot meeting, and the meeting
The result is that it is up to all British wizards to decide whether to accept them or let them die without any pain after careful consideration.
Of course, there are other people who have proposed different solutions, such as containing these werewolves, exiling the werewolves to other places and other whimsical ideas.
The Ministry of Magic also responded quickly.
Containing this group of werewolves is not just a matter of words. To deal with this group of werewolves safely requires a large sum of galleons.
But the Ministry of Magic is out of money!
We need voluntary donations from everyone to find a place to build a werewolf shelter.
Moreover, even if a shelter is built, follow-up maintenance will still be a big problem. Otherwise, the shelter will not be able to support it until those werewolves have completely died of old age, and a series of troublesome issues such as werewolf riots will also need to be considered.
Try to ensure that werewolves during the full moon do not cause harm to the British wizarding community.
As for the plan to exile the werewolves, let the Wizengamot directly reject it. Not to mention the terrible fate of those exiled werewolves, even the International Federation of Wizards will not allow anyone to do that.
So when the Ministry of Magic couldn't solve the trouble, it decided to directly deal with the people who caused the trouble.
