Chapter 526 Initial Idea

In the luxurious and spacious room, the blond woman leaned against the window and stared at the busy traffic outside the window.

Ada is still in London, and the room she is currently in is a suite in a Muggle hotel, located in Westminster Abbey, near Westminster Abbey.

The number one enemy of the Ministry of Magic, a wanted criminal, is living in a hotel with such arrogance. It is unexpected, but it is reasonable.

If possible, Ada didn't want to treat herself badly, and it would be one less day to live in the open. Moreover, Ada's choice to stay in a Muggle hotel was not just for pleasure, but she had certain considerations.

First of all, this is a Muggle-run hotel. The Ministry of Magic can think of monitoring the orphanage in Little Whinging, but it may not think of it here. Even if they thought about it, there are many hotels in London. By the time they found this place, Ada would have left long ago.

Secondly, it is because this is a Muggle hotel, and the people staying in the hotel are all Muggles. If the Ministry of Magic finds out that Ada is hiding here, they will not be able to do anything. This is a lively and prosperous place in London, and arresting people in such a place will expose the wizarding world.

After comprehensive consideration, Ada, who did not want to endure hardship, checked into this hotel, right under the nose of the Ministry of Magic.

After standing by the window for a while, Ada returned to the desk and sat down. There were several photos on the table, and each photo was accompanied by one or several pieces of parchment.

These photos are Ada’s preliminary partners. She still needs to further screen and try to make contact.

At the top is Amelia Bones. It's not that Ada still has any unrealistic fantasies about her, but she is supporting a puppet minister. Ms. Bones is a problem that Ada can't get around. Difficulties.

There have been so many ministers in the position of Director of Legal Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, and it even feels like if you become the Director of the Department of Legal Enforcement, you will be the next Minister.

The second photo is of Pierce Thicknesse. In the photo, he is wearing a black robe inlaid with gold, and his long black hair and beard are interspersed with strands of silver. Thicknesse was also from the Legal Enforcement Division, but he was not part of Ms. Bones's faction, nor did he side with Fudge.

Thicknesse in the photo looks a bit slick and difficult to deal with. Thicknesse feels more like a politician than a wizard.

Next down is Amos Diggory, Cedric's father. If it weren't for Cedric, Ada would not have considered Mr. Amos Diggory because he didn't leave a very good impression on Ada.

When they first met, Mr. Diggory kept "showing off" that Cedric had defeated Harry and caught the Golden Snitch first. It seems that he is a father who is proud of his son, but in fact, this father does not consider his son at all.

You must know that everyone present was Gryffindor, and the defeated Harry himself was also present. Mr. Diggory showed off and was happy, but he didn't think about how Cedric would handle himself.

As long as Cedric is not sober at all, his future Quidditch matches will not be easy. If someone dared to keep saying "You have been beaten by welfare" in front of Ada, Ada would definitely let the other person know how to write the word "shut up".

They meet again after a commotion at the camp, where Mr. Diggory finds the unconscious house elf Winky.

Regardless of the attitude towards house elves, most wizards have that kind of character. What really makes Ada unhappy is that Digory is clearly hinting at Old Barty Crouch, but he is also afraid of Old Barty. of power.

Vain, visionless, a little ambitious but courageless, this is the impression Amos Diggory left on Ada. But if you think about it carefully, if you are choosing an obedient puppet, these bad impressions are not considered shortcomings.

Ada tapped her fingers on the pictures of Piers Thicknesse and Amos Diggory, the two people she felt were more suitable candidates at the moment.

Thicknesse is an official in the Law Enforcement Division, so his path to the top will be relatively easy. But Ada didn't know him and had never seen him with her own eyes. The contents on the parchment were only of reference value and should not be fully trusted.

Amos Diggory is familiar, but he works in the Department for the Management and Control of Magical Creatures, and his status in the Ministry of Magic is not as good as Thicknesse's, making it slightly more difficult to get the job.

Of course, these are all based on the condition that Ada can negotiate with the other party and the other party is willing to become a puppet minister and step onto the stage in Ada's place. If the other party does not agree, Ada can only choose another partner to cooperate with, or simply use the soul-stealing curse.

For Ada, both Thicknis and Digory are transitions and substitutes. Her real wishes are Percy, her brother from the Weasley family.

It is always better to support someone close to you than a stranger. This was also Ada's selfishness at work. She didn't just listen to Percy's complaints in the cafe, she took them to heart.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Ada shouted "come in" while packing up the information on the table.

The door to the room was opened and Sergey walked in. After sending Bernard and Robert's bodies back to their hometown, Sergei returned to England to help Ada.

Sergey also stayed in this Muggle hotel and made a little joke. Every time he answered the room service call, Sergey would strain his neck and shout, for fear that the person on the other end of the phone wouldn't hear.

At that decibel, you can probably hear it standing in the corridor.

"Is something wrong?" Ada said without raising her head, and her organizing movements slowed down. There was no need to hide this matter from Sergey.

"Look who's coming?" Sergey said, moving away from the burly body.

Lola Fournier emerged from behind Sergey, and she said angrily: "Our Miss Ada seems to not want to see me. It's so sad!"

"Why are you here?" Ada asked in surprise, "You are here, what will you do at home?"

All this time, Laura has stayed by Vader's side, taking care of the manor's affairs on Vader's behalf. Suddenly running over at this moment, Daniel was not the only one left beside Vader.

Although she did not punish Daniel or tell him about Henry, Ada had no trust in him. Ada was a little worried about leaving Daniel with Vida.

"Of course I'm here to help you." Laura said, "Now is the time for you to hire people, and it's good to have more than one person to act as a facade. As for things at home, you don't have to worry. Madam has made an appointment to reunite with old friends. The gathering place is safe.”

"How safe is it?" Ada couldn't hear the word safe, she was allergic to it.

Laura thought for a moment and said, "At least it's much safer than Hogwarts. At least the bathroom there isn't a basilisk's lair, and there aren't many checkpoints at the end of the corridor."

She was speechless, but Ada still asked: "Who are these old friends? Are they related to Nurmengard..."

Laura stretched out her hand to interrupt Ada, and said, "My eldest lady! Look at my age, and then think about my wife's age, do you think I will know her old friend?"

Laura emphasized "age" and "old" in her words. Thinking about it, the people who followed Grindelwald back then would be at least 70 or 80 years old now. Laura and them are indeed not in the same circle.

Unless Vader takes the initiative to introduce you, or the other person is so famous that you can recognize him as soon as you meet him.

Ada handed the information in her hand to Laura and asked her to help with the consultation. Ada was a little curious about what Vida wanted to do. Vida, who never went out much, actually made an appointment to reunite with an old friend. At this juncture, could he be swaying someone for her?

"Don't look at me like that, I really don't know what Madam is going to do." Laura said. Even though the parchment covered half of her face, Ada was sure she wasn't lying.

Laura said leisurely: "Before Madam left, she had a few words. She said that this matter is important to both you and her, more important than what you are doing now. That's all I know. .”

After hearing this, Ada fell into deep thought. More important than what is going on now, what is that?

At this time, someone knocked on the door again.
