Chapter 534 Thicknesse’s Transformation

Last year in Little Hangleton Village, Vidal had sent death threats to Fudge, and the Rozier family from France had become a thorn in the minister's side.

Unfortunately, the other party was in France, and Cornelius Fudge was beyond his reach.

That night, Lola Fournier stood next to Vader, pointing her wand at the Minister of Magic. Thicknesse would find it hard to forget this name. What's more, ever since Ada became openly hostile to the Ministry of Magic, the Ministry of Magic has been collecting information about her and her associates.

For example, Sergey, Daniel, including Lola Fournier, these people who often accompany Ada or often appear in public, some of their information will naturally be placed on the desk of the Deputy Director of the Legal Enforcement Department .

Laura was born in a small French family. Unlike the ancient pure-blood wizarding families such as Rozier and Malfoy, although the Fournier family are also wizards, the Fournier family is only a small family of three or five people. Small household.

According to Laura's resume, she graduated from Beauxbatons and briefly served in the French Ministry of Magic.

No matter when she was studying in school or when she was employed by the Ministry of Magic, Laura had no disciplinary or criminal record. She was as white as a piece of paper.

But even so, Pierce Thicknesse was still wary of Laura. The other party dared to take action against the minister, and Thicknesse, the deputy director, was nothing.

"What do you want to do?" Thickness asked. "Where is Isabel?"

Laura, who was pointed by the wand, did not show any fear or fear. She pulled out the chair in front of the desk and sat down. She said: "Mr. Deputy Director, you just asked two questions. Which one do you want me to answer first?"

Without waiting for Thicknesse to speak, Laura continued: "Let's talk about Isabel first. She is fine and still having sweet dreams at home. Don't worry, she is really sleeping. I am a person who knows how to be compassionate."

Thicknesse's expression improved, but he did not put away his wand.

Thicknesse threatened: "It will be a great achievement to catch you, Miss Fournier. According to the information we have, you are the right-hand man of the Dark Lord Drizzt."

"That's great. I was worried that you would position me as Ada's nanny!" Laura said excitedly, as if she had heard something worthwhile.

"You!" The contempt in the other person's words stung Thickness, which made Thickness feel angry.

Laura put away her joking expression and said solemnly: "Mr. Thicknesse, of course you can hand me over in exchange for the 'great merit' you talk about, but how much of this credit will fall on you?"

"I am the Deputy Director of the Legal Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic." Thickness emphasized his identity. He is a senior official of the Ministry of Magic.

"Mr. Deputy Director, I know your identity very well. If you were a small fish or shrimp, I wouldn't sit here." Laura said, "You know very well what I'm talking about, but your arrogance makes you Think highly of yourself."

Thicknesse slowly put down his wand and said, "What do you want to say? If what you say next cannot move me, I will reserve a good place for you in Azkaban."

You can sit down and talk about everything in the world slowly. If you can't talk about it, you can only say that the interests are not enough and the conflict is too great.

Laura smiled. This smile was very awkward in Thicknesse's eyes. The person she was talking to was a French woman, but the person smiling at her was her secretary Isabel, whom she had been with day and night.

"We all know that the Ministry of Magic is currently preparing for the replacement of the Minister. Hasn't Mr. Deputy Director ever thought of taking it a step further?" Laura said leisurely, like the snake that seduced Adam and Eve.

Thicknesse did not reply immediately. Although he had a guess in his mind, he was still a little surprised when the other party directly stated his intention.

"The position of Minister must belong to Ms. Bones. If you want to threaten the Ministry of Magic like the mysterious man, I suggest you go talk to Ms. Bones." Thickness said, "But before that, I have to first You're sent to Azkaban."

Faced with Thickness' threat, which was not considered a threat, Laura was still smiling.

She said: "Of course, even we have to admit that Ms. Bones is the best answer for the Ministry of Magic at the moment, but it is too early to call Ms. Bones Minister today!"

"What do you mean?" Thicknis grabbed his wand again, and he felt the murderous intention hidden in Laura's words.

It’s not like the Minister of Magic has never been assassinated. The current Amelia Bones is just a backup. If the real Minister can be killed, what does the Director of the Legal Enforcement Department mean?

Laura was still smiling. She stood up and walked around the office casually, and saw a bottle of good wine in the cabinet. Laura, who was delighted to see the hunter, immediately took the wine bottle into her hand and enjoyed it.

At this time, there was a rough knock on the door, and the wooden door of the office was banged.

Without Thickness' permission, the person who knocked on the door opened the door and said anxiously: "Xin - Mr. Thickness, it's bad - something big happened, Ms. Bones is dead!"

"Mr. Scrimgeour has rushed over. He asked me to inform you..."

The weird atmosphere in the room prevented the person who knocked on the door from finishing his sentence. Thicknesse waved his hand and drove him out, leaving only "I will be there soon."

The knocker retreated, and Pierce Thicknesse looked at Laura's moving back, holding the wand tightly in his hand.

Laura put down the bottle of wine, and she had no time to think about how delicious this bottle of wine would be. The sudden death of Amelia Bones made Laura worried that Voldemort was ahead of them.

Laura, who sat back on the chair, said: "We are not the only ones who don't want to see Ms. Bones become Minister Bones."

Thicknesse put down his wand again, believing what Laura said. Everyone knows what it means to have a strong, capable Minister in the Ministry of Magic, and this is a scene that no one who is an enemy of the Ministry wants to see.

"What do I get?" Thicknesse asked, "from Miss Drizzt's illusory friendship?"

Things have deteriorated to such a bad situation. Amelia Bones, the most promising one, is dead. Thicknesse's ambition has overcome his worries. It's time for him to think about himself.

"We have always valued friendship, because friendship is hard-won." Laura replied, "Maybe in a few days, I will change my name to Minister Thicknesse."

It would be false to say that the price was not attractive, but Thicknesse did not agree to it.

To betray himself to the Dark Lord, just a minister is not enough. What Thickness needs is commitment and guarantee.

"Miss Drizzt is not my only choice." Thicknesse said arrogantly, "Besides, after Ms. Bones, I will be a strong contender for the position of minister. With or without your friendship, it makes no difference. big."

"I like your confidence, but too much confidence is often not a good thing." Laura said, "We are not your only choice, but we are your best choice. It is more important to provide help in times of need or to add icing on the cake. I think in the future Mr. Minister can tell the difference.”

Thicknesse still had doubts in his heart. Ada was not his only choice, and similarly, he was not Ada's only choice. Thickness asked: "Why not Arthur Weasley? As far as I know, he and Miss Drizzt have the same father-daughter relationship."

"In the ministry, Pierce Thicknesse is the more capable person, isn't he?" Laura asked instead of answering.

"I want to see Miss Drizzt." Thicknesse said, but Laura's promise alone could not reassure him. He had to see Ada in person to feel at ease.

Laura stood up, shook her robe, and said: "Of course, as like-minded friends, it is a normal thing to meet for a cup of tea."

At this time, Thicknesse picked up the wand again, but this time he did not point it at Laura, but pointed at the bottle of wine in the cabinet.

The wine bottle floated in front of Laura under Thicknesse's control. Thicknessy said: "You and I are both good drinkers, so this bottle of wine will be my meeting gift. I wish Miss Fournier a wonderful life." afternoon."

"Thank you for your generosity!" Laura accepted the meeting in mid-air, "In return, Mr. Deputy Director, please pay more attention to Yaxley, there will be unexpected gains."
