Chapter 57: The First Practical Application of Wandless Casting

Like most British government agencies, the headquarters of the Ministry of Magic is located in the heart of downtown London, but the actual location is underground in London! But because it is protected by a large magic circle, wizards don't have to worry about being discovered by people in the Muggle world! Even if they Muggle dug the subway to the vicinity of the Ministry of Magic, the Muggle Repelling Curse would make them honestly modify the blueprint and then bypass the line!

Although the location is underground, the Ministry of Magic does not seem stuffy inside the Ministry of Magic! Because they have many magical windows, they can show all kinds of weather! What kind of weather to choose is mainly the responsibility of the people in the magic maintenance department! Anyway, everything from sunny to hurricanes! And the weather is very realistic, if you dare to open the window when it is raining, the cold wind and rain outside will definitely splash your face!

It is said that once before, there was a person from the Magic Maintenance Department who was crazy about money and asked for a salary increase, so he changed the weather to a hurricane without authorization to protest! That hurricane, caught off guard, caused a lot of confusion and loss to the Ministry of Magic! As for the perpetrator, although his desire for a salary increase was not finally fulfilled, he no longer has to worry about spending money for meals!

That idiot thought that anyone could step on the majesty of the Ministry of Magic casually? Can't the protest be changed to a slightly milder method? Besides, his unorganized and undisciplined! He also despises authority, wants to raise wages but refuses to follow the procedures, but behaves as he pleases! If the Ministry of Magic really gave him a salary increase, what if the staff of other departments also want to increase their salary someday? Do you want to make a fuss too? If this continues, the Ministry of Magic will no longer need to run, and everyone will just argue about how much wages should be raised every day!

Therefore, one can imagine the fate of that idiot! In line with the principle of killing chickens to warn monkeys, and that precedents must not be opened indiscriminately, the Minister of Magic at the time wrote a critical note: Seriously deal with it! No mercy!

Thus, the charge of disrupting the order of the government's functional departments was charged to that idiot! Not only did he fail to achieve his salary increase idea, but he was sentenced to more than ten years in prison instead! It is said that the man is still playing hide-and-seek with the dementors in Azkaban Prison, and it may be a long time before he is released after serving his sentence!

Today, in the aisle of the Ministry of Magic, many staff members of the Ministry of Magic noticed that the minister's secretary, Little Richard, was rushing to the Ministry of Magic with a newspaper in his hand. When several of his acquainted colleagues waved and greeted him, he ignored them and didn't even respond! I guess something bad must have happened!

"Mr. Minister! It's not good! It's not good! Something is wrong! We're probably in big trouble again this time!" No longer able to knock on the door, the secretary pushed open the door of the minister's office.

In the early morning of the next day, the Minister of Magic had just returned to work, and he was standing in front of the window with a cup of coffee. It seemed that Fudge was in a very good mood today. Before that, he specially ordered the people from the Magic Maintenance Department to set the weather to sunny high. According to the sunny weather!

The Gringotts incident a while ago has basically come to a perfect conclusion! Apart from being a little embarrassing at the beginning, he got unimaginable benefits in the end! For him, Fudge, this is real!

Because he had listened to the secretary's suggestion before, took advantage of the opportunity, and launched a series of offensive measures against the goblins of Gringotts, which achieved unimaginable success! Not only did their Ministry of Magic take back a large part of the management rights of the Gringotts Wizarding Bank from the goblins, but they also won unanimous praise from the wizarding world! In the recent period of time, his Fudge's reputation can be said to be in full swing! This made him look extraordinarily high-spirited recently, which made him very unhappy!

After this battle, no one thinks he is an incompetent Minister of Magic anymore! The newspapers are almost full of praises for him these days! People have sent articles or letters to praise him,

Regarding his move to take back the management rights of the Gringotts Wizarding Bank, they all agreed: this is a great thing that has merit in the present and benefits in the future!

And those big families and nobles who manipulated the Ministry of Magic behind the scenes who had received real benefits also expressed their gratitude and encouragement to him for their letters! After all, Gringotts is a big cake! It's enough for them to carve up for a while! All of this can be foreseen, and in the future, in the re-election campaign of Fudge's Minister of Magic, it will definitely be what everyone expects, and there is no suspense!

"It's noisy early in the morning! How decent! Is there any discipline?" Fudge originally planned to drink a cup of coffee first, take a rest, and then take a nap! Wait until you get back to sleep before thinking about work!

But who would have thought that his secretary would rush in at this moment, ruining his good mood all at once! This made Fudge couldn't help but glared at the secretary! But in the end, I still think about the other party's achievements, so I didn't make too much criticism.

"Tell me, what happened again? Could it be that little girl blew up Hogwarts?" If this is the case, maybe Fudge will be happy!

He was already very dissatisfied with Dumbledore! That old guy often dictates his work, and he always takes advantage of his meritorious qualifications to intervene in the affairs of the Ministry of Magic! There is a lot of sand mixed in by the old man in the Auror, right? Don't think that he, Fudge, is a fool who can't even see such an obvious thing!

Not only in the Auror department, but also in other departments, there are many people from that old man! For example, Arthur Weasley from the Misuse of Muggle Products Division, and some people from other departments, Fudge didn't even bother to list them one by one! That old thing has quite a lot of manpower in the Ministry of Magic! He was almost empty before! Think about when Fudge first took office as the Minister of Magic, many decrees could not be implemented without consulting the old man!

Speaking of which, Fudge is also the Minister of Magic after all, right? According to the Muggle world, he is the head of a country! If the wizarding world could be considered a country! And Dumbledore is just a headmaster! It is equivalent to the Minister of Education! A bad old man in charge of education actually stretched his hand into the center of the country! This, this is simply unreasonable! In this regard, Fudge said that he had had enough! If that little girl really blew up Hogwarts, he, Fudge, would have had two glasses of wine!

"Uh! That's not it!" The secretary was taken aback by Minister Fudge's strange idea! Blow up Hogwarts? Thankfully he figured it out! "This...you should take a look for yourself!" After finishing speaking, the secretary respectfully handed over this morning's Daily Prophet.

"Hmph! I'd like to see what the hell happened again!" Fudge snorted coldly, and took the newspaper dissatisfied.

I saw the headline on the front page of the Daily Prophet read in enlarged letters: Shocking news! The mysterious little girl of the Gringotts incident has done a new trick! Casting spells without a wand may overturn the wizarding world!

Seeing the title, Fudge was stunned for a moment. When he didn't read the newspaper just now, he guessed that this little girl had made trouble again in all likelihood! But I didn't expect it to be like this! Casting spells without a staff? That sounds great! Also subvert the wizarding world? This is alarmist! Those bastards who write material for the Daily Prophet love to make things up like this! They are all scum who fear the world will not be chaotic! Minister Fudge feels that it seems time for the Ministry of Magic to issue some laws restricting speech! You can't let these people mess around!

After reading the title, Fudge continued to read patiently. The picture below is the appearance of the little girl Annie standing on the podium to teach! It is estimated that some good person secretly photographed it, tsk! This must have sold a lot of royalties, right? Then below the picture is a detailed report on casting spells without a stick, as well as the interview transcripts of some practitioners, and finally the author's personal demonstration and explanation!

Waiting for Fudge to take a closer look at the signature of the original author of the report, as expected! He knew it was that Rita Skeeter bitch again! Now Fudge hates her the most! Last time, she didn't know whose dirty money she received, and wrote some reports against him, Fu Ji, which made him very embarrassed for a while! If he hadn't counterattacked in time and took the opportunity to make a big contribution and take down Gringotts, he might have been deprived of the minister's throne by her reports!

"Hmph! Casting spells without a wand? Seems interesting!" After Fudge watched the whole thing patiently, he said to the secretary in doubt: "This seems like a good thing! Why can't I see where the trouble is? Little Li, it seems that you are overthinking!"

"Ouch! My Mr. Minister! Casting spells without a wand is a good thing for most wizards! But it is a big deal for the Ministry of Magic!" The secretary couldn't help but feel a little anxious about the minister's IQ!

"Why didn't I see it?" Fudge turned his attention to the newspaper again, and probably read it again. He looked left and right, but he still couldn't see what was wrong! Cast without a staff! That's great! He also wants to learn according to the above method when he is free! This is no problem ah?

"Mr. Minister! Because of this wandless casting! Now the monitoring system in the Ministry is completely messed up! We have no idea who is casting the spell! Because we can only register and monitor the wand number! Not the wizard himself Register and monitor!!"

"That's right! From this point of view, it does seem to be a bit troublesome!" After Fudge understood it, he nodded in agreement! He felt that things were a little tricky! This does seem to cause a little trouble for the Ministry of Magic, but it's just a little trouble, right? Where can it be called a big deal?

"And! You don't know! Just now! Several masked wizards robbed several Muggle banks in a row! They stole countless pounds in cash! Before our Aurors arrived in time, they Gone! And we! We have no idea who did it! Because they didn't use wands at all!" said the secretary through gritted teeth.

Although the Aurors who received the alarm rushed to the scene just now, they have no idea who did it! Even if they used Legilimency to retrieve the memories of the Muggle witnesses, it would be of no use! Because, those bastard wizards are all masked! The secretary, Little Richard, can already foresee how the Ministry of Magic will be in a state of distress in the next period of time!

"What! What else is there?" Minister Fudge stood up in shock, and gasped!

He finally realized the seriousness of the matter now! This is the first morning of the first day, a wizard has done such a shocking event! Masked wizard robs Muggle bank without a staff? It turns out that casting spells without a staff can also be used to do so? Masked to avoid being witnessed, cast spells without a staff to bypass surveillance! Tut tut! incredible! He, Fudge, really hadn't thought of it that way!

This is really great! Wandless casting was just announced, right? Did they immediately figure out this way of bypassing the wand monitoring system? It's a good thing they can figure it out! When did so many talents emerge in the wizarding world? If it takes a while longer, what's the deal? Surely there will be chaos in the world, right? no! We must immediately and severely crack down on these unhealthy tendencies! There must be no appeasement!

"Quick! Immediately convene a meeting of all directors! A solution must be found as soon as possible! All Aurors are now scattered to various places for vigilance! The whole of the British Isles will be monitored around the clock, and law enforcement control will be implemented! We must prevent similar things from happening again! "Fudge quickly came up with a well-regulated method, and now he can only do this!

"Minister! I think we should give priority to upgrading the monitoring system of the Ministry of Magic! Without monitoring, these things are impossible to prevent! After all, Britain is so big! We Aurors don't have that many people at all!" The secretary quickly added from the side.

"Yes, yes, yes! Upgrade the monitoring system first! You go and recruit people now, and do it right away!" The flustered Fudge quickly nodded in agreement with the secretary's suggestion.

While the Ministry of Magic was struggling with this, the instigator of all this, Annie, who taught students to cast spells without a wand and made them spread, was sleeping soundly in a luxurious suite on the top floor of Hogwarts! On the soft feather bed, Annie curled up with her bear and squeezed under the covers.

"Mom!" Annie murmured softly, smacking her lips. She had just dreamed that she had returned to the land of voodoo, and the magic pie that her mother Amoline made for her was really delicious!
