Chapter 138 Asking for help
Apolline ignored the others and said hoarsely: "Fernando Harrison, William alone killed more than 30 vampires and more than 20 werewolves. Isn't this contribution enough for you to come up with some magic potion? "
Fernando said impatiently: "Madam, this is just your one-sided statement. If that little wizard really killed so many vampires and werewolves, even a first-class Grand Knight Medal would be enough.
But we need evidence. We can send people to dig out the secret passage and verify it. if only·······"
"That's not enough time." Apolline glared at Fernando, took out a suicide note and put it on the other's desk, and said angrily: "You cowards are worse than a child."
Francis picked up Gabrielle, put his arm around Apolline's left hand, and said, "Apolline, the family is already purchasing potions, and we can give some of it to William."
Apolline shook off Francis' hand and said coldly: "You don't understand at all, you don't understand anything, you." Apolline held her little daughter in her arms and held back her anger.
Apolline stormed out of the office with Gabrielle in tow.
In the early hours of the morning, Francis dragged a middle-aged wizard into the minister's office, Guillaume Bell, director of the French Department of Magical Law Enforcement, followed by the director of the Auror Office, Martin, and reporters.
Guillaume's left arm was injured and was wrapped in a roll of gauze. After entering the room, he said to Fernando: "Mr. Minister, after interrogation, the vampires and werewolves all admitted that William Smith passed Paltrow's He broke into the castle and killed at least 40 vampires and werewolves.
Paltrow was angered by this and personally told that 39 vampires had been killed by Mr. William Smith, and issued the Blood Demon's Revenge Curse, causing Mr. Smith to fall into darkness forever.
At present, Parrott has remained mysterious. We suspect that she discovered Mr. Dumbledore's support and ran away directly. "
Several reporters who rushed over after hearing the news quickly took down Guillaume's words, and the photographers nearby also took the opportunity to take pictures.
Fernando looked angrily at his subordinates who betrayed him. This sudden war made his throne very unstable. The directors in the Ministry of Magic who are qualified to compete for the minister have already begun to seek support.
Fernando originally wanted to establish an image of caring for his subordinates in front of everyone, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face by Guillaume.
"Are you sure? Mr. Bell." Fernando gritted his teeth.
Ignoring the minister's potential warning, Guillaume took out a transcript and said: "This is the information I just tortured out of the mouths of those werewolves and vampires. We used veritaserum and Legilimency. The information is completely reliable." letter.
Mr. Dumbledore may have been hunting Parrott, so the other party directly dismissed the vampires and werewolves. "
Fernando felt weak all over. Whether he refused to save him or just refused to deliver medicine, it meant that his position had come to an end.
Since leaving Woking, in order to learn more about the wizarding world, Catherine asked William to subscribe her to the "Daily Prophet" and "Witch Weekly" for a year.
On February 2, a photo of William holding the Champions League appeared on the front page of the Daily Prophet. He was smiling in front of reporters.
With a handsome face, a bright smile, and golden hair shining with the championship cup, William at this moment has become the dream lover of many witches.
There was a long discussion about William in the newspaper, from a small goal with a domineering side, to an unstoppable defeat of many chess players on the field, from the continuous defeat of ten talented wizards older than himself in the French Beauxbatons Magic School on the street, to a record of The youngest British wizard chess champion in history.
The wizard reporter of the British Daily Prophet in France used a sincere and rigorous writing style to show how William Smith, a 12-year-old genius, became famous in France and highlighted the glory of the British wizarding world.
This kind of realistic writing, which seems to be completely different from Rita Skeeter, has won unanimous praise from readers of the Daily Prophet who are used to Rita Skeeter's rumors and exaggerated news.
Because of the authenticity and simplicity between the lines, everyone trusts me more and is more proud.
Catherine couldn't understand the influence of Wizard Chess and Quidditch competitions. These two large-scale competitions, which are both civil and military, play a pivotal role in the wizarding world.
Their influence is no less than the Olympic Games held every four years in the secular world, and the glory received by the top three in the wizarding world is no less than the status of those sports stars in the secular world.
And because there are only two events, it will only be more eye-catching compared to the Olympic Games where there are many events.
For young wizards, it is unbelievable that the championship that was previously occupied by a group of old wizards was occupied by a 12-year-old wizard.
After all, wizard chess tests wisdom, which requires age.
William directly became the legendary idol of countless young wizards, who were already at an age where it was easy to worship legendary heroes.
Catherine was unlucky and cared, she was just happy. Her son won glory for Britain, and she had a good face, so at night she took a few girls to the most luxurious French restaurant in London for dinner.
However, the report on February 2 drove her into the abyss, "The new chess king saves the pure-blood wizard from mysterious disappearance".
The article uses various methods to explain the love story between the proud young chess king and a certain French lady. In the end, he turned around for love and bravely fought against the vampire queen.
The photos of Mrs. Delacour crying with Gabrielle, the suicide note left by William and the testimony of the French Auror were used as evidence and became the key information of William's death.
Rita Skeeter expressed in a regretful tone that William Smith developed an Oedipus complex because his parents were divorced and he lived with his mother.
She thought William was for Apolline, not Fleur, who was having an affair with Carl Jones.
As for the investigation, forget it, the news about Rita Skeeter has always been made up.
As for whether something happened to the three of them in the secret passage, Rita Skeeter did not dare to write more because of the connection between the Delacour family and the British pure-blood wizard family, but she left a lot of hints.
The relationship between the British and French pure-blood wizard families is very complicated. It is a bit similar to the relationship between the British, German, Russian and Austrian royal families before World War I. Everyone is not only relatives, but also enemies with guns trying to take over the other's colonies.
This unique relationship, which is both struggle and cooperation, made Rita Skeeter, who is in the British wizarding world, think that there will be no danger if she grasps the scale of words.
Carefully and quickly flipping through the newspaper, Catherine stared at the picture of Apollin crying, recalled her son's usual habits of doing things, and tried to comfort herself: "It will be fine, William is not that kind of stupid person."
With trembling hands, after hesitating for a moment, she made the call for the first time that she had not called in twelve years.
