Chapter 290 Return to School and Settle Accounts with an Old Fox
"Let's go quickly, go back to Fuli's house, don't go anywhere except Fuli Castle, don't trust anyone..." Hector said, his expression was extremely serious.
Qin Weijie frowned slightly and winked at Tom, and Tom took Buck to the side, leaving Qin Weijie and Hector to chat privately.
The waning moon rose in the sky, and the sea breeze on the cliff swept with the chill. Tom and Buck stood side by side, looking at the sea that merged into the darkness in the distance. Standing on the land of Great Britain, everything seemed so unreal. Finally, I came back. In the blink of an eye, I experienced too much in nearly a year. Returning to the real world was a little unreal.
"Tom, isn't the president leaving yet? Aren't you afraid that the guys on the ship will react?"
"Don't rush for a while, let Weijie understand the current situation first..." Tom narrowed his eyes and looked at Qin Weijie's figure.
Buck curled his lips: "Can that Hector be trusted? Why did he help us? Didn't he let the 'Knights of the Round Table' infiltrate the Wizengamot Council?"
"I don't know whether Hector is trustworthy or not, and I don't know why he helped us. I only know that I believe in Vijay! If anyone dares to harm Vijay, I will definitely kill him!" Tom said, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
Buck couldn't help but shudder. Although they were both at the seventh level of magic power, Buck always felt a chill and fear around Tom and Vijay, as if the two were extremely dangerous, and the degree of danger had already stimulated the fear from the source in Buck's DNA.
"Two monsters..." Buck said in his heart, and then dared not say anything more.
...
"Does it mean that the 'Knights of the Round Table' deceived you?" Qin Weijie looked at Hector.
Hector nodded helplessly: "I have been committed to overthrowing the current situation of the family domination of the magic world, and I had no choice but to find the 'Court of King Arthur', but I didn't expect that they just wanted to use me from the beginning! Using me to infiltrate the management of the Ministry of Magic, my impeachment was largely driven by them."
"The new Minister of Magic doesn't care? I heard that Leonard is not a guy with an iron fist. Can he let the 'Court of King Arthur' control him?" Qin Weijie was puzzled.
Hector sighed: "Leonard has another identity, which I only found out not long ago. Leonard is the leader of the Eighth Knight of the 'Knights of the Round Table'."
"Damn!? Can you talk more? Brother, you... You didn't succeed in driving the tiger to swallow the wolf, but instead the cuckoo took over the magpie's nest. You who play politics are all playing big chess!" Qin Weijie was shown off by Hector's insane operation, and didn't know how to complain for a while.
After calming down, Qin Weijie asked again: "Why are the Knights of the Round Table making such a big move?"
"I don't know their specific goals either. I just believed the rumors. I always thought that the 'Prisoner of God' would not intervene in the disputes of the magic world... After all, in our view, the 'Prisoner of God' has always been an outsider." Hector said angrily.
"Hey, that's enough! You don't know anything... Uncle, tell me about the current situation in the UK, and what happened to the Foley family? The old man..."
Seeing that Hector didn't know anything, Qin Weijie simply stopped asking about the purpose of the Knights of the Round Table, and instead asked about the current situation in the British magic world and the safety of the old man he was most concerned about.
"The Knights of the Round Table have taken over almost all the powers of the Ministry of Magic and started to cooperate with the Muggle government. The agent of the Muggle government is a guy named Winston Churchill, whose ancestors were also Knights of the Round Table.
In general, there have been no major changes in the entire British Ministry of Magic. It was just that two departments were established not long ago - the 'Magic Strategic Deployment Office' and the 'Wartime Magic Economic Committee'.
What happened to the Foley family is related to the 'Wartime Magic Economic Committee'. More than a month ago, the 'Wartime Magic Economic Committee' began to investigate the Foley family. They mainly investigated the Foley family from the following aspects..."
Hector was talking when Qin Weijie interrupted Hector: "There is no need to say these nonsense, just tell me the results! Bullshit investigation, it's just taking advantage of the so-called wartime blackmail to kill the big families! No matter when, war is a money-burning existence, and the wealth of the Foley family is even jealous of the 'Prisoner of God'..."
"Are you really only thirteen years old?" Hector looked at Qin Weijie in doubt, and Qin Weijie shrugged without comment, indicating Hector To continued the previous topic: "More than a month ago, when the investigation was nearing its end, the old Marquis of Welfare came back. The Marquis went to the Ministry of Magic to participate in a meeting. After the meeting, the investigation of the 'Wartime Magical Economic Committee' ended. The final result was that the Ministry of Magic confiscated some of the Welfare family's business rights, including the operating shares of 'Diagon Alley' and seven commercial streets in the UK.
After that meeting, the Marquis returned to Welfare Castle, and the Welfare family withdrew from the operation of those commercial streets one after another. Then, the Marquis summoned all the collateral members of the Welfare family back to the family castle and closed the castle gate. It was announced to the outside world that the Marquis was ill and was ready to select a new helmsman for the Welfare family from the collateral branch.
Recently, there have been rumors that you have died in France, which has led to the Welfare family having no suitable direct heir. The Marquis had no choice but to compromise with the Ministry of Magic and planned to train a helmsman from the collateral branch."
"Yeah, fortunately, the old man is not in danger of life... Oh, by the way, uncle, you are also a collateral branch of the Welfare family, why didn't you return to Welfare Castle?"
Hector looked at Qin Weijie with a wry smile: "Do you think I still have the nerve to go back? A tribesman who devoted his whole life to overthrowing his own family ended up harming his family, not only harming others, but also harming others and not benefiting himself. He ended up like this... without benefiting him. Not to mention the family, I have not even made any achievements in politics, haha... How can a loser like me have the face to go back? "
Qin Weijie touched his chin and said seriously: "What you said seems to make sense!"
"I...you...#¥...x-on:"
Hector almost choked to death from Qin Weijie.
Speaking of which, shouldn't you say a few words of comfort to me according to the normal script? Why do you still have a chance to turn back? You can start over!
You're welcome, what's that serious look on your face? Do you identify with me that much?
Hector finally understood how the Auror captain Pierce felt a year ago. No wonder Pierce would rather go to the front line to perform dangerous tasks than protect Qin Weijie. This kid is really poisonous.
Angry, Hector still kindly reminded: "Also, how did you little guy get into trouble with the 'Knights of the Round Table'? The royal court will not hesitate to issue an A-level order to bring you back to the royal court. Accept the assessment... That's an A-level order! The last time King Arthur's Court issued an A-level order was during the 'King's Court Civil War' twenty years ago."
"Hua Tsai, you all know about the 'internal strife in the royal court'!" Qin Weijie said in surprise.
"After all, I was once a minister..."
Qin Weijie smiled slightly, casually took out a crystal ball from his arms, played with it a few times and threw it to Hector: "Hey, uncle, thank you very much for helping us, but you are setting yourself on fire, take this crystal ball and return Go to Welfare Castle, give it to the old man and he will let you in!
From the family's point of view, you are indeed ashamed of your family, but as a minister, there is nothing wrong with your idea. The aristocratic family system has been suffering for a long time. If you want the magical world to develop healthily, the aristocratic family must withdraw from the stage of history. Don't be too attached to the past, think about the future direction. "
As he spoke, Qin Weijie walked towards Tom and Buck.
Hector held the crystal ball in his arms and was silent for a long time...
When Qin Weijie and Tom were meeting up to leave, Hector shouted: "Aren't you going to go back? Where are you going?"
"Go back to school and settle the score with an old fox..." Qin Weijie waved his hand and left.
Hector suddenly shouted from behind: "You can't go back! The 'Magic Strategic Deployment Hall' has been besieging Hogwarts for half a month. They named Dumbledore to be taken away. Armando strongly opposed it and even turned on the guardian. Magic, the two sides have been confronting each other for half a month!"
