This is a department under the British Ministry of Magic - Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures - Office of Beasts.
The original intention of the planning team was to arrest those werewolves who might pose a threat to society, but just like the Werewolf Registry and the Werewolf Support Service next door, this department has never been able to successfully operate. In fact, they are now all on the verge of being abolished.
Already.
"Fenrir Greyback, this is perhaps the most dangerous and disgusting half-man and half-beast in the wizarding world today..."
Umbridge stood in the office of the werewolf capture planning team, glanced at the old and yellowed wanted poster on the wall, and said with a sneer.
"For half a century, werewolves have been an important factor in destabilizing the magical world. These dark, dirty evil creatures have been hiding in the corners of the world for too long. The patience of the Ministry of Magic and the magical world is gradually wearing away. According to reliable sources,
The most evil werewolf who has ever taken refuge with a mysterious man has established a hidden werewolf community in the mountains of northern England... This is a pretty dangerous sign, isn't it?"
"Perhaps this shows that they can communicate and integrate into the normal world..."
David, the head of the Werewolf Registration Office, said cautiously while looking at Umbridge with a grim expression.
As soon as he arrived at the office this morning, he received an order document from the top management of the Ministry of Magic, requiring everyone in their department to put down all their work and go to the werewolf capture planning team. On the way to the planning team, David happened to meet the werewolf support service department
of Ilok.
"No, on the contrary. Those half-humans and half-animals are secretly training the army, and law-abiding werewolves will obediently register!"
Umbridge let out a creepy laugh and said in a high-pitched voice with a fake smile on her face.
"Obviously, when they accumulate enough strength, they will attack wizards like giants and rebel goblins. The Ministry of Magic will never tolerate such a thing! After careful and serious consideration, we decided to strike first -
Mr. David, Mr. Ilok, I heard that you have a lot of information about the werewolf community, please publish this information now."
"Wait, wait, Deputy Minister Umbridge, all I have counted here are harmless werewolves."
Ilok from the Werewolf Support Service Department swallowed his saliva and said uneasily, "Most of them tell us their information to protect themselves and seek help from the Ministry of Magic. This has never happened in the werewolf community where they live.
A vicious incident. I don’t think we should—”
"Then please tell me, will they turn into wolves at the full moon?"
"Of course, but they will all take potions..."
"A small number of people will take it. Wolfsbane potion is not that easy to prepare and brew - most werewolves will become bloodthirsty and crazy beasts when the full moon comes. Of course, they are not safe at ordinary times. More importantly,
One thing is, Mr. Ilok."
Dolores Umbridge narrowed her eyes and made an annoying mocking sound.
"You have been working in this position for almost ten years, right? Then you must also know very well that there is more than one werewolf in each werewolf community. There may be a few 'disciplineable' guys among them, but the other ones whose identities are hidden,
What about the guy who hides his head and tail? Don’t forget, Fenrir Greyback is a living example. These half-human, half-beasts are indestructible and may attack us at any time.”
"Perhaps I must re-emphasize that I am not here to ask for your opinion today."
After a slight pause, Umbridge took out a document from her small bag and shook her thick finger with an ugly ring.
"The Ministry of Magic has been evaluating the proposals related to the "Werewolf Restriction Act" for a long time, and just last night, the Ministry of Magic's high-level meeting finally passed this long-overdue bill. In order to better communicate and convey, we decided
Go directly to each werewolf community to execute——"
"What if they refuse to comply with this bill, or protest violently?"
David from the Werewolf Registration Office looked at the document rather uneasily and asked in a soft voice.
Although he has not read the relevant content, he can be 100% sure that it is definitely not a pleasant bill. In fact, even if it is a relatively loose and normal werewolf registry, few werewolves have been willing to do so over the years.
Come and sign.
"Hey, that's easier. Since they refuse to abide by the laws of the Ministry of Magic, they may have to consider moving to another place to live."
Behind Dolores Umbridge, Aubrey, the leader of the werewolf capture project team, grinned, showing yellowed teeth.
"Aurors from the Auror Office, some foreign affairs personnel from the Department of Magical Law, and the Dangerous Beast Response Team from the Beast Office will all participate in this operation. In view of the possible high danger of this operation, Minister Umbridge
I specifically apply for unlimited spellcasting rights. If those guys dare to bare their teeth at us, I will let them know how terrifying the wizard's anger is."
During the period when the dark forces were raging more than twenty years ago, his wife and children were all killed by Fenrir Greyback's werewolf army.
Aubrey had been preparing for this day for twenty years, and he couldn't wait to take revenge.
"Okay, I guess there's no problem, gentlemen? This is the Ministry of Magic's authorization for this operation."
Umbridge nodded with satisfaction, her face still had a templated fake smile, and her two big round eyes were filled with indifference and cruelty.
"If the residents of the werewolf community obey the restrictions imposed by the Ministry of Magic, we will find a suitable place for them to live that is safe for both parties - of course, under the close supervision of the Ministry of Magic. As for those who intend to destroy
Stable, beasts that hurt wizards, I think we have many ways to house and deal with them, werewolves can't be more dangerous than fire dragons, right?"
"I understand. It seems that the Werewolf Support Service Section has no meaning in existence after that?"
Ilok from the Werewolf Support Service Section nodded slowly, looked around at his colleagues in the office, and took a deep breath.
The Ministry of Magic has been trying to control werewolves since a long time ago, but there has never been a unified voice within the Ministry of Magic. The most critical point is the identification of werewolves. This is also the werewolf problem that has not been solved for so many years.
one of the reasons.
For many years, the administration of werewolves has oscillated between the Office of Beasts and the Office of Aliens in the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures.
For example, the Werewolf Registry and Werewolf Capture Program Team are both part of the Beast Office, while the Werewolf Support Services Section is managed by the Alien Office.
But now, the battle is clearly coming to an end.
"Judging from the current situation, there is no problem with this understanding——"
Dolores Umbridge raised her eyebrows, said softly with a pleasant expression, and then added after thinking for a while.
"But Mr. Ilok, you don't have to worry about unemployment. In addition to the werewolf problem, there are many unspecified dangerous beasts and aliens around us that may attack people at any time. You can still keep your office, but the door number is
The words will change."
"It may be inappropriate and blunt to say this, but I still want to correct you. Werewolves are not beasts. They..."
"Oh, time is running out. We should get started."
Umbridge raised her wrist and looked at her watch, then screamed like a little girl in a fuss.
"Mr. Ilok, I don't intend to discuss philosophical issues with you. Werewolves are classified creatures by the Ministry of Magic. I think this point alone can end this meaningless debate. My question now is, do you
Can you point us in the direction? We have every reason to believe that Fenrir Greyback is hiding in those werewolf communities. Are you planning to provide shelter for him and his army——"
"...Of course not, Madam Deputy Minister."
Mr. Ilok glanced at the execution order stamped with a red seal and sighed softly.
Regarding Umbridge, there were many rumors in the Ministry of Magic. Although no one had ever confirmed it, as far as he knew, the wizards who offended Dolores Umbridge did not end well. He could
He doesn't want to become a new story in the rumors, he still has to support his family.
"Well, there are three werewolf communities that I know of, and they are in..."
"Oh, very good. The Ministry of Magic will seriously consider the work changes of the Werewolf Support Service Department in the future——"
Umbridge whispered contentedly, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
As the initiator of the "Werewolf Restriction Act" and the Werewolf Apprehension Plan... these are the best foundation stones for her to return to her post at the Ministry of Magic in the future. They are also valuable political capital for her to move to a higher position in the future. There is no such thing as a werewolf.
La Celsus is in the way.
As for possible subsequent retaliation, this was originally part of the Ministry of Magic's plan.
The high walls of the castle of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and the tyrannical magical power of Dumbledore and others can provide her with excellent protection. In Cornelius Fudge and her plan, she will take over all command rights
and reputation, taking advantage of the last failed operation to penetrate into Hogwarts, monitoring and reviewing the school while avoiding the possible dangers caused by the werewolf hunting plan...or, rely on this to further expand your reputation.
"But, but, there is another problem. They haven't transformed yet..."
"Then lock up the caught people and wait until the full moon - the magic world is very big, and those who have not been registered will not be noticed by many people even if they disappear temporarily for a month or two months. Besides, beasts have
Don’t you also go to the jungle to look for food sometimes?”
Umbridge said with a sweet smile, casually flipping through the registration form that David from the werewolf registration office just brought over.
Remus Lupin, it will be your turn soon... Now, she goes to collect some interest.

England, Cotswolds.
In the south of this area, there is a small town called Castle Combe.
Time here seems to have stayed in the Middle Ages, and the streets without street lights are extremely quiet.
The town is very small, with a small pavilion built in the central triangular square, and next to it is a small church and garden.
The church is also empty. The ancient knight statue in the niche is lying quietly, as if the whole town is in a dream and has not yet woken up. The ancient street is not long, with only dozens of houses on both sides, so you can't walk far.
, just outside the village. A small stream and an arched stone bridge are the head of the village.
"This is it. Most of them should be sleeping during the day..."
With a slight crackling sound, a large group of Aurors descended on the stone bridge outside the village.
"Complete the arrest as soon as possible. Don't let the situation like last time happen this time. If you are entangled by reporters, it will be another troublesome matter. Whether it is an adult werewolf or an underage wolf cub, knock it out first and control it. If
If you encounter an attack, don’t give those beasts a chance to open their mouths——”
Umbridge glanced at the wooden board outside the town with a few scratches from sharp claws, and whispered instructions to the Aurors around her.
"I didn't expect it to be hiding in a Muggle town. No wonder the Ministry of Magic has not been able to find it before..."
After experiencing a failure, she would not fall in the same place a second time.
In this arrest operation, except for the basic Auror guards who were to be retained around Cornelius Fudge, the Ministry of Magic deployed almost all its combat forces.
With such a huge number of people, let alone a group of ignorant, dirty half-humans and half-animals, even if they faced the old wizard from Hogwarts again, the other party would have no choice but to flee. On the other side, about Merlin
The application letter for the knighthood medal is almost ready.
Once these rounds of arrests are completed, she can put down her work and wait for the medal to be awarded at Hogwarts with peace of mind.
"Do it! Capture everyone in this town...and lock them up until the next full moon. Then you will know which ones are werewolves..."
Umbridge pointed to the deserted town ahead and gave the order softly.
"If you encounter resistance, I allow you to use some black magic to defend yourself. I specifically applied for the necessary immunity to cast spells against black magic."
The Aurors nodded silently, raised their wands and walked cautiously towards the sleeping town.
At the same time, a fat green beetle landed on the leaf next to Umbridge.
The marks around the beetle's tentacles looked like a pair of ugly gimmicky glasses. She flew quietly over the town, carefully observing the raids and arrests taking place in the room through the windows, silently recording this unrest.
A well-known secret arrest operation.
…………
At the same time, the headquarters of the Daily Prophet.
Barnabas put down the magnifying glass and newspaper, and turned his head to look at the assistant beside him with some annoyance.
"Did Rita Skeeter not submit a hot manuscript this month? Suspend her salary for half a month, give her a warning, and tell her to continue digging for clues on "The Quibbler" and give her back when she finds something.
She was repaid. If it weren't for her past work, just for the two months she was absent from work last year, we at the Daily Prophet could have fired her directly without any conditions..."
Just like Umbridge said.
The magic world is huge, and even if some wizards occasionally disappear for a month or two, no one will notice.
And when they reappear, maybe...
…………
"Well, is there a new round of promotion channels..."
Hogwarts, Grindelwald pushed up his reading glasses on the bridge of his nose and nodded noncommittally.
"I passed it. Although there are a lot of illegal Animagus these days, those with this body type are still too rare. When she comes back, she will make an exception and raise the member level to C level, otherwise some jobs will not be good.
She was assigned to participate, but..."
The old man casually signed a line of cursive calligraphy at the end of the letter and handed it to the young wizard waiting aside.
"When she comes back, you have to get the memory and keep it as a file as soon as possible to avoid any unexpected situation."
"If something strange is discovered during the reading, well, you know what I mean, Professor Lockhart."
After saying that, Grindelwald stood up, picked up his windbreaker and walked towards the fireplace in the office.
Although the Aurors of this generation are a bit ridiculously weak, in order to ensure the fairness and confrontation of the entire game in such a large-scale operation, he has to watch from the side, at least not to let those poor little ones...
The wolf cub can't even spread a spark of fire.
