Chapter 299 Invisible Plane
Secretary Fudge was rather kind, though stupid.He told himself that there were still wizards living secretly around the world today, but he didn't have to worry about it, because the Ministry of Magic was in charge of the wizarding world and kept non-wizards - the so-called Muggles - from knowing about their existence.The Ministry of Magic does everything from how to use broomsticks to controlling dragons.The Prime Minister's impression of Secretary Fudge was not bad.
Unfortunately, within a few years, he learned that Minister Fudge had resigned.At that time, he regretfully asked why he left the field, and then he was stunned to learn that he had shouldered a debt that was almost impossible to pay off to the ministry, and the unjust, false and wrong cases of his youth were exposed. There was a very serious jailbreak incident...
So the Muggle Prime Minister fell into deep thought: Why did it take him so long to be ousted?If I were myself, I'm afraid I would have gone out of the field long ago and enjoyed the life of the state in charge of food and housing.So after a rigorous analysis, the prime minister felt: the voters in the magic world are really tolerant, unlike his voters, a bunch of glass-hearted!Even the trivial things will make them fuss.
At that moment, the Muggle Prime Minister Huck felt a deep sense of envy.
He looked at his watch. It was almost a quarter past three. Huck sat alone in the study and took a big sip of coffee. The bitter taste and the hot liquid dispelled his drowsiness and cleared his mind a little.But he knew very well that this was just an illusion. If he continued to stay up all night, he might not be able to deal with the opposition party's inquiries in a good state the next day.
In order to pass the sleepiness and pass the time, he took out a long memo and began to read it—this was the response to the question that Humphrey had prepared for him in the afternoon, and he needed to memorize it.
Huck tried his best to gather the messy thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't do it, because he had a big disagreement with the military.The military wanted to spend billions of pounds to buy the Trident, a strategic missile, but Huck didn't want to. He felt that the performance of this thing was worrying, and it couldn't solve the current plight of the empire.
This made him almost break with the military.
"The point of the trident is to convince people that we're protected." Humphrey's face emerged, and he didn't hide the smug grin on his obnoxious, slick face.
But the problem is that instead of making the Americans and the French feel that Great Britain is protected, the Trident makes the British feel that they are protected - and the Americans know we are not.
Huck is a little sad, his only conscience is a little uneasy, spending billions of taxpayers' pounds just for a face, is it really worth it?he does not know.
He turned to the second page of the memorandum and found that the content behind it was still very long. What's more, there were so many words on the second page, and there were only three full stops in the end. This is the unique skill of cabinet secretaries: long single sentences, whenever they want to perfuse other People—when they specifically refer to ministers, they will sacrifice this magic weapon that will never stop, and the stupid ministers will not understand it.
He frowned for a while, and found that these three sentences were almost incomprehensible.Huck simply gave up.He stretched his arms over his head, propped his feet on the desk, and lit himself a cigarette.
Just as he was puffing, he heard a soft cough behind him.
He turned slowly, facing the empty room.
"Who? Is it Minister Crouch?" He tried to sound calmer.At the same time, he straightened his tie.He had just finished tidying up, and controlled his facial expressions by the way, when he saw bright green flames burst out from the fireplace in his study, and then a well-dressed man appeared in the middle of the flames, spinning like a spinning top .A few seconds later, the man was already standing in his study, sorting his clothes.
"Hello, Prime Minister Huck." Crouch said, walked up to Huck, and stretched out a hand: "It's a pleasure to meet you again, and I'm sorry to disturb you so late."
"It's nothing, you are in such a hurry, there must be some important event happened?" Huck poured a cup of coffee for Crouch, and Crouch took a sip and put it on the table without touching it.
"Yes, three fighters attacked our Quidditch field tonight, three Muggle fighters. Thirty-seven people were killed and over 37 injured."
"what!"
This news was earth-shattering, and Huck stood up in shock.
"Sorry, please let me investigate." He immediately walked to the phone, dialed a few numbers, and after some verification, a strange look appeared on his face.
"The military said it didn't detect any abnormalities in the airspace tonight." If it wasn't for Crouch's unsmiling look, Huck definitely thought he was playing some prank.After all, it is almost unimaginable for him to bomb and straf civilians and government officials with fighter jets.
"Interesting." Crouch was also lost in thought. "This is very strange. Three planes entered and exited your airspace, but you were kept in the dark."
Huck remembered something, and his eyes lit up.
"I have an immature idea. Someone told me about an emerging technology called stealth aircraft technology, which can make aircraft difficult to detect by radar. This technology has not been very mature...so it can make our people Do you want to see the wreckage of the plane?" Huck is keenly aware of the advantages and prospects of this kind of plane, if he can get the wreckage of that plane, maybe...
"No." Crouch refused him bluntly, not even listening to his conditions.He had already guessed that some special magic was applied to this plane, which could make the plane unobservable.Crouch felt that he should find a way to learn this spell.
The Prime Minister couldn't help being disappointed, but then Crouch's assurance gave him another glimmer of hope: Crouch promised that if the research of the Ministry of Magic made progress, they would definitely cooperate with Huck and the others.
Huck was a little excited, this time the people from the Ministry of Magic finally didn't bring bad news.He still remembered that the last time Crouch showed up was to tell him how many prisoners escaped from Azkaban, the wizard prison.
However, before Crouch left, he said that they would introduce some particularly dangerous magical animals from abroad this year. The people from the Department of Management and Control of Magical Beasts said that according to regulations, the Muggle Prime Minister needs to know this.Before the Prime Minister could say "Hey, wait a minute!" Crouch had disappeared into a sea of green flames.
The Muggle Prime Minister persuaded himself to accept all this in a daze, and then went back to bed to sleep-what magical animals, what planes, it has nothing to do with him!
