[Comprehensive] The Wizard and the Fugitive

William raised his eyebrows and glanced in the direction of the living room.Blaise was holding Hope, watching his expression secretly, seeing him looking this way, he immediately squeezed out an awkward and flattering smile.

"He probably doesn't know how to get along with his lover," William said.

Blaise kept his ears up, paying attention to the movement here, and heard the words clearly, and immediately retorted: "I'm already married!"

William nodded perfunctorily: "I know."

Blaise wanted to say something, but Deni grabbed him, pressed him to sit down, and whispered in his ear: "You really can't see it! The two of them don't focus on you at all. "

In the kitchen, Draco didn't know when he got into William's arms and was surrounded by his arms.The two of them put their heads together, talking in a low voice, and from Blaise's perspective, they could only see their sweet smiles.

Those two people were immersed in their own world, and they had long ignored Blaise's little emotions, and seemed to have forgotten the two guests who had just arrived.

"What are we here for?" Blaise asked with a tangled face.

Deni laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "According to the plan, the Merlin Group will propose to the Ministry of Magic to take a stake in the Arctic Circle route. We are here to discuss business matters."

"Oh——" Blaise looked at the kitchen, turned his eyes around William, and turned back timidly, looking at Deni for help.

However, the vampire who had been roommates with William and Draco just shrugged and said, "You get used to it."

"what?"

Blaise looked at him blankly, Denis had already stood up, stretched himself, took a travel book from the bookshelf in the living room, and shook it at Blaise: "I suggest you find something to do by yourself, don't Keep staring at them." Denis said, already lying down comfortably on the single sofa on the other side with a book, and then buckled the book on his face, successfully blocking most of the sunlight.

Blaise stared at him in disbelief: "You can't..."

"No!" Deni picked up the book with his index finger, and looked at Blaise with one eye: "I hope you remember, before calling me over next time, first say hello to those two, I don't want to come over again" There are too many people."

Because of Draco's procrastination, the two guests who were supposed to go home soon were forced to stay until the evening, and finally they were able to solve the task of coming to Baker Street today.

According to the original plan, Denis will soon submit a request to the Ministry of Magic for a stake in the Arctic Circle route.In order to continue the good relationship with the Merlin Group, and to keep the only life-saving straw in his hand, Kingsley will not refuse Denis.

Draco didn't intend to take back the route. This was a great gift from Malfoy to the entire British wizarding world. Half of the Ministry of Magic's financial revenue would come from Malfoy's gift every year. It was very cool to think about it.The reputation brought by this relationship is much more valuable than the Galleons that can be earned through air routes.

But not intending to take it back doesn't mean the Ministry of Magic should call the shots on Malfoy's turf.The addition of the Merlin Group will once again decompose the distribution of rights on the Arctic Circle route and compress the presence of the Ministry of Magic.

"I hope you will do it with a high profile." Draco said to Deni: "It's better to invest a lot of money in it, so that the entire British magic community knows who is supporting the Arctic Circle route."

Deni frowned, looked at the young master who was lying in William's arms, and said helplessly, "Have you calculated how much the Merlin Group has paid out recently? I'm afraid I can't stand such a trouble."

Draco smiled: "Don't worry, Malfoy has never been short of Galleons."

Blaise sighed: "In fact, as long as the Ministry of Magic has some money, it won't let us lead by the nose like this."

"And a new Minister of Magic with a brain," Denis added.

"We didn't cause these problems." Draco said coldly: "If you want to blame them, you can blame them. Slytherin left for a whole year, what did they do with this year?"

Hermione was also thinking about what the Ministry of Magic had done this year.Why on earth is the return of Slytherin able to bring a huge impact to the British wizarding world? It compares the Ministry of Magic, which was a hero not long ago, to nothing, and even makes people doubt whether the Ministry of Magic has fulfilled its responsibilities.

The more she thought about it, the more Hermione realized that from the perspective of a bystander, the Ministry of Magic really had nothing to do.They first put most of their energy on catching Slytherin, and then put the hope of the source of funds in the treasury of each family.

For hundreds of years, the Ministry of Magic has survived on taxes and family donations.After the war, a lot of waste was left to be done, and the Ministry of Magic exempted many taxes, which made the already shrinking tax revenue even tighter.The decline of the House, especially the Slytherins, has suddenly reduced donations.As a result, the Ministry of Magic was caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, it had to increase expenditures for post-war reconstruction and capture Slytherin, but on the other hand, its income was decreasing.

They thought about confiscating Malfoy and other Slytherin properties to fill the vacancy, but they failed.Most of the Slytherins fled after hearing the news, and Draco Malfoy even made a strong comeback a year later, disrupting the British wizarding world that had finally calmed down again.

Or maybe it wasn't Draco who was causing the trouble, but that the British wizarding world had never really calmed down.Everything is stable on the surface.If the Ministry of Magic can't find a way to become stronger again, sooner or later the disappointment of the British wizards will burst out and become the strongest helper in pushing them down.

Draco Malfoy just seized the weakest and most obvious problem of the Ministry of Magic, and then attacked with all his strength, making the Ministry of Magic unable to resist at all.
