With a series of clanking and clanking sounds, an elevator landed in front of them. The golden gate slid open gently, and Allen and his group walked into the elevator together. The elevator slowly ascended, and the chains clanked. As the elevator opened floor by floor, a few wizards walked in. When they saw Allen and his group, they couldn't help but take a few more glances. Then, Wolf Mother and the others quietly blocked them from the outside. A few paper airplanes flew into the elevator and slowly flew around their heads. They were light purple in color, and the side of the wings was stamped with the stamp of the Ministry of Magic.
"The fourth floor is the Magical Animal Management and Control Division, which includes the Beast, Otherworldling, and Ghost Office, Sprite Liaison Office, and Pest Information Office." As the cold female voice sounded, Allen and his group walked out of the elevator. A small group of notes also flew out, and the elevator door closed with a clang.
Unlike the empty corridor of the Department of Mystical Affairs, this corridor was very lively. In addition to the flying paper airplanes, there were the roars of various magical creatures and the shouts of wizards.
"Mr. Allen Harris, nice to meet you. Are you looking for the director?" Mr. Amos Diggory, who had just come out of the bathroom, saw Allen and quickly adjusted his glasses to greet him. He took out a handkerchief and wiped his wet hands. His slightly curly short brown hair was neatly combed under a cap.
"Yes, I'm looking for her." Allen took the initiative to reach out and shook hands with Mr. Amos Diggory.
"I'll bring you in." Mr. Amos Diggory rubbed his hands uneasily. The boy that he could comment on as an elder was already a popular figure.
"Our Magical Animal Management and Control Division is the second largest division of the Ministry of Magic. We have the Otherworldling Office, Beast Office, and Ghost Office. "As Amos introduced them, they passed by an office. Sprites with dark faces, pointed beards, and long limbs were wearing decent suits as they went in and out. There were also some dwarf sprites playing with gold coins and waiting in line at the door.
"That's the Sprite Liaison Office, a subordinate department of the Otherworldling Office." Amos pointed his chin at the office and fell silent again.
"Centaur liaison office?" A small office at the corner caught Allen's attention.
"Even though the Centaur Liaison Office exists, no Centaur has ever used it. In the Ministry of Magic, being sent to the Centaur Liaison Office has become an internal joke, meaning that the person mentioned will be fired." Amos sneered, but then he felt that he was too presumptuous, and the smile froze on his face.
"Senior Cedric's recent performance on the field has been outstanding. As the new ball seeker of the Montrose Magpie Team, he has only just started professional training and has already learned a lot of tricks that most people would never be able to use in their lifetime. He is a very promising Quidditch player." Allen saw through Amos' thoughts, so he chose to praise Cedric to ease the awkwardness.
When talking about his son, Amos was a little excited. Cedric could be said to be the pride of the Diggory family. When he was in school, his conduct was excellent, and after graduation, he became a professional Quidditch player. He quickly won the main position and shone brightly on the field.
No matter where he went, Amos heard praise for Cedric. His son had become the best work of his life. When he heard Allen talk about Cedric, he couldn't help but get excited. "You flatter me, but Cedric is really good. He can catch the Golden Snitch in every game. The coach and teammates trust him very much. Have you watched the recent Quidditch game highlights on Harris TV? Not counting the Golden Snitch at the end, there are six amazing close-ups of Cedric flying … "
With Amos praising his son, Allen and the others turned left and turned into a narrow stone corridor. "As long as Cedric is in the game, he will be the one to catch the Golden Snitch. He is the guarantee of victory. My family's Cedric is definitely the best ball finder in the world. "Amos was a little carried away.
"Ha!" Penello's red lips curled up slightly, and she snorted coldly, reminding Amos who he was talking to.
Amos Diggory was shocked and quickly looked up at Allen. He found that the other party was still smiling gently, and he was a little relieved. He reluctantly admitted, "Of course, Cedric is the best ball finder besides Mr. Allen Harris."
"Sorry, make way, make way. It's an urgent mission." Four or five burly wizards ran towards them. They were wearing black uniforms, holding wands, and some were holding a large folded net. They quickly ran in the direction of the elevator.
"That's the Ghoul Squad. There must be a mission. This squad is responsible for driving away the ghouls that have been transferred to Muggle's house. "Amos introduced with a sigh of relief.
At this time, they had already reached the end of the corridor. They pushed open a door and walked in. With the sound of the door closing, all the noise was shut behind the door. After walking a short distance, they saw a door with a sign on it that said "Director's Office".
Amos tidied up his clothes and raised his hand to knock on the door. A cold and serious female voice came from the door. "Please come in."
"Director, Mr. Allen Harris is here." Amos opened the door and said. At the same time, he made way for Allen's figure to appear in front of Josephine Harris. The Umbrella Squad consciously stopped at the door and did not enter.
Josephine was originally looking down at the documents. When she heard the voice, she immediately stood up, walked around the wide desk, and asked in surprise, "Allen, why are you here?"
"I'm working in the Department of Mysteries today, so I came to see you." Allen walked in. Penello brought Luna into the room and let the crazy girl curl up on the sofa. Penello seemed to be very familiar with the office. He took out the tea set and began to brew black tea for the others.
Josephine saw this and understood that Allen had something to discuss, so she said to Amos Diggory, "Thank you, Amos."
"Director, I won't disturb your conversation. I still have something to deal with. Please allow me to leave first." Amos Diggory tactfully said goodbye. He knew that he should avoid such an occasion. After Josephine nodded, he smiled at Allen and left. At the same time, he considerately closed the door for them.
"Allen, why are you here today?" Josephine asked Allen to sit at the desk.
"Aunt Josephine, I have something to ask for your help. We want to change Helena's current state, or at least let her touch something, so we need some experimental subjects, like a female ghost or a naughty Poltergeist. "Allen explained his intentions.
"You should make it up to her." Josephine Harris rested her chin on her hand. "Poltergeists are not easy to find. You know, they usually appear in places where a large number of teenagers live. Poltergeists will appear together with 'buildings' or decide to move in at some point. They are classified as' non-existent 'among creatures. Female ghosts are not a big problem. I'll look for the people in the Spirit Office. They are responsible for all matters and problems related to spirit magic creatures. Anyway, the spirits don't think of themselves as humans. They once objected to classifying themselves as humans because they thought that it was prejudiced that they were already 'faded flowers.' So, we classified them as a separate category and set up the Spirit Office. But be careful. Banshee is a type of dark creature that often appears in Ireland and Scotland. Although this creature looks like a woman, hearing her scream is fatal. At least, it is fatal to ordinary wizards, so be careful when you experiment. Don't let others hear her scream. "
Josephine agreed. This was under her jurisdiction. Although it was a little troublesome to capture a female ghost alive, it was not a big problem. At worst, she could participate in the operation herself. She then looked at the clock in the room and asked her nephew, "Allen, there will be a trial this afternoon. As a member of Wesengamer, do you want to attend?"
"What's the trial about?" Allen asked.
"It's because the Dementors rebelled and defected to Lord Voldemort. They no longer guarded Azkaban. All the prisoners escaped. Some were caught by the Aura, but some directly joined Lord Voldemort's side. But the trial this afternoon is for those who escaped from prison and surrendered to the Ministry of Magic. One of them is Barty Crouch. He escaped from Azkaban and surrendered himself. Three in the afternoon, third courtroom. "
"Okay, Aunt Josephine. I'll go and show my face."
