Last night's carnival did not make Xing Ze feel much tired. After solving the Ravenska incident, the nightmares that had accompanied him all year round disappeared and he slept peacefully.
After washing up, Xing Ze took the necessary things and left Hogwarts. During the nearly three-month vacation, he planned to visit the families of those students who failed to achieve satisfactory results one by one, all as if they were a member of the British wizarding community.
travel.
Of course, the premise is that the Key Hall will allow him to continue to teach at Hogwarts. His secret identity is almost as obvious to Dumbledore as the elephant in the room, plus the identity of Ellie Shafik is also
Having been exposed, there is no point in continuing to stay at Hogwarts.
He met A at a breakfast shop near Glasgow Cathedral. Although the weather in June had become quite hot, A was still wearing a neat suit.
Xing Ze ate his omelette and asked with some confusion: "I thought you would meet me in London."
"I came to Glasgow to do something." A looked meaningfully at the church not far away, "I have to say, Xing Ze, your performance far exceeded my expectations."
"Let's get straight to the point, A. Do I win?"
"certainly."
"What about the investigation against R?"
A crossed his legs and reached out to pick up his coffee, "That's exactly what I'm here for. I've already gone to the church to confirm. Indeed, the letter you submitted is indeed from the church."
Hearing this, Xing Ze paused, then turned to look at Glasgow Cathedral, "Here?"
"Yes, the church's headquarters for handling dream affairs is here. This is the only medieval church in Scotland."
"I understand." Xing Ze withdrew his gaze and continued to "attack" the fried eggs and sausages on the plate.
"He will be dismissed from his post for investigation soon. But in my opinion, he will be sent to Nurmengard soon. After all, the evidence you prepared is quite sufficient."
In the last few words, A slightly emphasized the tone.
"It is my honor to eradicate the traitors of the organization." Xing Ze said with a smile, "So, do you have any new arrangements for me?"
A played with the ring on his finger, and Xing Ze noticed that the exquisite snakeskin ring had a conspicuous letter S engraved on it, "Of course, the position is vacant. We have had internal discussions and plan to let you take over R's original position.
.”
"Is there something..." Xing Ze pretended to shirk.
"Yes, it shouldn't have been like this. Although you have performed well, you still have too little time to join us. But someone has guaranteed you that you can be promoted exceptionally."
"Can I ask who it is?"
"Dumbledore and me." A smiled, admiring the surprise on Xing Ze's face with satisfaction.
"But……"
"Before you officially take office, I think it is necessary to tell you about the formal structure of the Key Hall. Give me your book."
Xing Ze put down his knife and fork, wiped his hands with a napkin, then took out the "Key to the Door" from the ring and placed it on the table.
A took out his wand and tapped it. In the blink of an eye, the book turned into a beautiful golden medal with a slowly fluttering green ribbon surrounding it.
Xing Ze was even more confused. Of course he knew what the medal in front of him meant, but he didn't understand why the Key Hall was connected to Sir Merlin.
"The Order of Sir Merlin, First Class Medal, is used to commend people who have done very brave or different actions in the magical world." A explained, "I can see your doubts, but don't worry, young man. Listen to me patiently.
explain."
"I'm listening."
"The outside world thinks that the Key Hall belongs to the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic, but this is not the case. It belongs to the Order of Merlin and is managed by the twelve senior members of the Order. Dumbledore and I are both managers."
A paused to give Xing Ze time to digest.
"So, spying on Dumbledore is nothing more than..."
"That's right, it's just a show for the Ministry of Magic. We put the Key Hall under the Ministry of Magic to appease the big families who control the Ministry of Magic. Only a few people in the Ministry of Magic know about it."
"It seems that I have been fooled by you." Xing Ze thought of the old wizard with a white beard, and he couldn't help feeling a little depressed.
Just after the incident in the school dungeon, Dumbledore talked to him. In addition to thanking Xing Ze for everything he had done, he also deliberately mentioned the original cooperation agreement between them. Thinking about it now, how ironic this was.
"Why are you telling me this? Even if you don't tell me, I will still work in the Key Hall." Xing Ze asked.
Thinking about it carefully, there is no need for A to tell him this matter. I am afraid that even R will not know this huge secret.
A took another sip of coffee and said, "Consider this an olive branch from us."
"I'm curious, who are we in your words?"
"Reformist."
Although A said it lightly, Xing Ze knew what the name meant. It meant that the olive branch in his hand came from one of the largest political factions in the British wizarding world.
"How can I be so virtuous..."
He was interrupted by A before he finished speaking, "Please think carefully before giving an answer, young man. Before that, I hope you can listen to my opinion."
"Please tell me."
"What do you think of the British wizarding community now?"
"Do you want to hear the truth or lies?"
A smiled slightly, "Of course it's the truth."
"Old-fashioned, traditional, conservative and unwilling to make progress."
"Quite a harsh criticism. But I'm afraid I agree with you. The British wizarding community is like a dying old man, dragging its steps along the road of time. We are worried that it will collapse one day.
"And the recent threats from cults and dreams may be the last straw that breaks it. So reform is imminent. The entire magical world needs a major change.
"The era of big families holding power should pass. People should understand what they are facing. They should understand that Muggles are no longer barbarians who only know how to wield swords. They have guns and cannons, and even
There are powerful bombs. They should understand where those twisted and terrifying monsters come from.
"Although I don't approve of what Grindelwald did back then, I admire his forward thinking and anticipation. Yes, just as he worried, the wizards were hiding behind their own walls and had no idea what was going on outside.
.
"And you, young man. You broke the first wall. You broke the so-called traditional heroes created by pure-blood families. Then there will be a second, third, fourth, etc. wall that appear before you.
in front of my eyes.
"We need you to join us in breaking down these walls so that the blinded public can see the real world."
