Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

He said so.

Ms. Pella rolled her eyes at him. "What do you know, little kid? Didn't you see the leader was a witch? I bet she's Grindelwald's widow... Isn't it normal to avenge your dead husband?"

"Vida Rozier?"

Ryan did not deny Ms. Pera's statement that he was a child. He just looked at the old witch in the photo. Although she was very old, it could still be seen that she was obviously very beautiful when she was young.

"Well...it's said that she is indeed one of the current leaders of the Saints, but she is not Grindelwald's wife...In fact, Grindelwald doesn't seem to have a wife."

He chatted with Ms. Pella for a while, but was finally defeated by Ms. Pella's firm words that "Rosier must at least love Grindelwald deeply."

And it is under such circumstances.

The first month of summer vacation passed quickly - August arrived.

And on this day, August 3rd.

Ryan left the Silver Lime Tree Welfare Home and came to central London. After having Friday, his commute obviously no longer needed to rely on things like Floo powder.

He came to Whitehall in central London, found an abandoned red telephone booth and walked in.

"...the phone booth should have been more considerate of underage wizards."

Looking at the slightly higher telephone booth, Ryan helplessly tiptoed and dialed the number - 62442 (MAGIC).

So the next moment...

Ryan felt a magical power sweep over him, and then a pass appeared in the coin return slot in front of him.

Then, the telephone booth began to spin and fall.

When the telephone booth opened, Ryan saw the magnificent main hall of the Ministry of Magic.

The magnificent hall has bright dark wood floors and a peacock blue ceiling inlaid with glittering symbols.

Bright fireplaces were arranged around the hall, and Ministry of Magic staff in purple robes and visitors in various wizard robes were constantly walking out of them, forming a crowd in the hall.

"It's so lively."

Ryan sighed with a smile.

This was his first time to officially come to the Ministry of Magic.

In the center of the entire hall stands a giant bronze statue group.

Above the statue, there are wizards holding up their wands, centaurs drawing their bows, goblins bowing and offering treasures, and below them are house-elves looking up in worship.

Ryan knew that it was the Fountain of Magical Brethren.

The iconic building of the Ministry of Magic symbolizes peace among all races in the wizarding world.

but...

"Meow?"

Friday looked at the statue standing in the front, which symbolized the 'wizard', and meowed.

Because if you look closely at this moment, you will find that the face of the statue is not clear - it seems to be shrouded in light.

"Oh, quite symbolic, isn't it?"

Ryan smiled and said, "Of course a statue representing a wizard cannot have a face, otherwise it would be inappropriate."

While explaining to his cat, he quickly walked to a security check desk at the entrance of the main hall.

An ebony wooden board with the words "Security Inspection" is hung above the security check table, and on the board are also hung the "List of Today's Violations of the Confidentiality Law" and the "List of Items of Special Attention".

However, Ryan noticed that there was a strange door next to the security check desk with the words "Transformation Security Check" written on it.

But at this moment, the words "under maintenance" were written on the door.

"Ding!"

As Ryan walked up to the security desk, he heard the buzzer go off.

"Hello, please register your identity and purpose of visit - according to regulations, dangerous items are prohibited before entering the Ministry of Magic, and suitcases need to be checked separately..."

The witch sitting at the security checkpoint raised her head very mechanically and spoke.

However, she had just said half of her words when she discovered that the visitor in front of her was actually a little wizard.

"Oh, kid...are you lost?"

She said doubtfully—and not only her, but the wizards at the other security check counters also noticed Ryan.

"Oh, no."

Ryan said politely.

"I'm Ryan Elias, and I've been invited by Mr. Amos Diggory to attend the 'Magical Beasts New Regulations Meeting'. This is the invitation."

Having said this, Ryan handed over his invitation.

Then, he saw the witch's eyes widen instantly and a banshee-like scream came out of her mouth.

"Lion Elias? Merlin—is it really you?"

Chapter 149 Newt Scamander, mysterious attack!

"Miscalculation."

Ryan began to understand why Cedric had given him this instruction when they left Ollivander's Wand Shop.

"You'd better be careful when you go to the Ministry of Magic."

Ryan was puzzled at the time as to why Cedric said this - could the Ministry of Magic be a den of dragons and tigers, and would he be eaten if he went in?

Now he understood a little.

Because after signing for the witch in charge of security, Ms. Anne Horst, Ryan noticed that other people around him were ready to make a move.

Fortunately, he decisively chose to leave the main hall quickly, otherwise he felt that it would be difficult for him to attend the meeting smoothly today.

This made Ryan think of what Dumbledore had said before.

"Fame is useless most of the time and can even be very annoying."

At this moment, Ryan couldn't help but sigh at the principal's wisdom: "What a wise saying."

After leaving the lobby, Ryan took the elevator to the fourth floor quickly.

This is also where the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures is located.

Of course, this place doesn't just deal with magical creatures.

For example, as soon as Ryan walked out of the elevator door, he saw many wizards coming and going here. Many of them were dressed and looked very strange. They might be hybrids of non-human magical creatures and humans.

This is also the actual function of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures - all matters related to non-human magical creatures are under their jurisdiction.

"All friendly creatures have the right to a place in the wizarding world - no matter how unconventional they may be."

This was the motto upon which this institution was founded.

but...

"Um..."

As Ryan walked, he looked at the offices in front of him.

【Ghoul Rangers】

【Malaysian Liaison Office】

[Fire Dragon Research and Restriction Bureau]

Werewolf Registry

Pest Advisory Committee

“Some things are just too unconventional.”

Ryan complained that he suspected that these offices might not have a single visitor all year round.

But at this moment...

"Buzz!"

The invitation letter on Ryan's chest flew out.

Magic power floated out from the invitation letter and turned into colorful ribbons, outlining the shapes of magical animals, guiding Ryan forward.

Ryan even saw an illusory Australian egg-white eye spewing flames, and the words "Walk forward to the end and turn right, conference hall" were constructed in the flames.

Obviously, as Cedric said...Mr. Amos attached great importance to this meeting, and he did receive a lot of investment.

"Come on, let's go to the conference room."

So Ryan said goodbye to Friday and headed to the conference room.

But at this moment...

"Ok?"

Ryan lowered his head sharply.

At this moment, a creature appeared at his feet.

It was a strange little thing, looking like a stick insect standing up, only the size of a palm.

Its body is mostly green with mimicking leaves, and it has two small brown eyes under its head.

"Bowtruckle?"

Ryan recognized this magical creature.

Bowtruckle, a 2X-level magical creature, guardian of trees.

It's not powerful per se, but is relatively rare - mainly due to its size and appearance making it difficult to spot.

At this moment, the little bowtruckle was trying to climb up along Ryan's feet, and its head was constantly rubbing against Ryan's body.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Ryan even saw that it seemed to make a sound of comfort and joy.

"Oh, Pickett."
