Chapter 282 A Single Word Stirs up the World

When Fudge finally wrote a sternly worded and warning ‘ultimatum’, he found something very embarrassing.

That is, he didn’t know how to send this ‘ultimatum’ to the Chinese Ministry of Magic.

Originally, there was a so-called Ministry of Magic in Hong Kong, which was composed of Chinese who immigrated abroad during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and gradually multiplied and finally gathered together.

After all, because of the Jade Butterfly of Fortune and the Ascension List in China, there are many spirits, but not all of them can enter the Taoist sect.

But they left the country, but by chance they came into contact with the supernatural power organizations in other regions.

There are always some lucky ones who will eventually walk in completely and become a part of it.

After hundreds of years of time, coupled with the tireless colonization of British Muggles.

These people were deeply influenced by Britain, so they imitated the Ministry of Magic and established the (pseudo) Chinese Ministry of Magic in Hong Kong.

According to the records of the Taoist sect, it was a major change that had not happened in three thousand years, and the whole Chinese land was turbulent.

The Dao Sect was exhausted just by calming down the chaos in various places, so how could it have the time to care about the Chinese Ministry of Magic?

Don't underestimate this Ministry of Magic. In the 19th century, the then leader surnamed Liu participated in the election of the International Confederation of Wizards.

It was only when the Dao Sect finally recovered and destroyed the Taoism of Shintoism and Onmyoji that it finally had time to pay attention to the surrounding environment.

Then it suddenly realized, eh? How come I was "represented"?

What is this Chinese Ministry of Magic?

Hurry up and change the name, it doesn't matter what you change it to, the word "China" is too deep, you can't grasp it.

After a "cordial and friendly" exchange, the Chinese Ministry of Magic changed its name with grievance.

It became the Southeast Asian Chinese Magic Federation (unofficial organization).

As for the Dao Sect, as long as we protect our own country, it doesn't matter what happens outside.

But after all, we are descendants of the Chinese Miao, so the Southeast Asian Magic Federation, with the support of the Dao Sect, is known as the "Little Overlord of Southeast Asia".

The inside story is so complicated that even many people in the Taoist sect are still confused, not to mention other countries.

In the eyes of the British Ministry of Magic, the once prosperous Chinese Ministry of Magic suddenly disappeared.

Instead, an unofficial federation organization appeared in Southeast Asia.

So the East should be weak, right?

Back to the point, Fudge took this "ultimatum" and scratched his head and didn't know how to send it.

Is there really a Ministry of Magic in the East?

Fudge originally wanted to send this ultimatum through the Magic Institute, and the Magic Institute didn't think it was a big deal.

But after seeing the content, he almost cried and refused to send it no matter what.

In the end, Fudge had no choice but to find a pureblood belonging to the East-West Trading Company camp and send this ultimatum.

The pureblood family that received the ultimatum did not dare to neglect it. They gave it to Lucius Malfoy, who was far away in China and had the potential to become the core of the enlightened pureblood.

Lucius then handed it over to Zhang Chengdao. Although the process was tortuous, it must be said that the purpose was indeed achieved.

Confused, Zhang Chengdao took a look at the incomprehensible things and inexplicable harsh words on it, and then threw it aside after reading it.

Stopping the trade between the East and the West is not the goal, but the means. Those pure bloods must know that they must stand up and invest in it. Only after experiencing the fight can they be qualified to enjoy this piece of fat meat.

And Zhang Chengdao is also ready to change the trading destination to Hong Kong as his son said.

Let those potion masters and alchemy masters who want to try new materials follow.

In case something powerful is really developed, it is better to intervene immediately, right?

Of course, all this has nothing to do with Zhang Xiao.

He didn't know how much storm his light-hearted "stop trade" brought to the British wizarding world, which was already undercurrent.

And Britain, as the core of the Western wizarding world, has affected other countries.

At this moment, the little wizard who stirred up the world with a single word was taking a third-grade magical creature care class.

To be honest, although there was a little accident with the last evil bird, it was generally very interesting.

But the evil bird, which was frightened by the explosion caused by Seamus, didn't think so.

It made up its mind and resolutely stopped singing, as if it thought that as long as it sang, it would cause a terrible explosion.

This made Hagrid very frustrated, causing everyone to take care of the very disgusting Flobberworms for several classes.

Zhang Xiao thought he could escape this disaster, but he didn't expect that what was coming would still come.

But today seems a little different.

Hagrid was wearing the moleskin coat that seemed to have never been changed, and the hound Fang was at his feet, looking eager to set off.

"Come on, hurry up!" he shouted, and the students were approaching.

Hagrid's face was filled with a happy smile:

"We have something good to treat you today! We are about to have a wonderful lesson! Is everyone here? Good, follow me!"

"Looks like we don't have to take care of the caterpillars?"

Malfoy whispered, and Hermione, Harry and Ron nodded in relief.

Zhang Xiao sighed, he was also fed up with those sticky caterpillars, and he also persuaded Hagrid.

But the effect was too good. Hagrid immediately became excited and vowed that he would make something 'powerful' for Zhang and Harry who believed in him and encouraged him.

"Honestly, if I keep taking care of those caterpillars like this, I won't even plan to take Hagrid's class."

Ron said softly, thinking that his friends would think he was not generous enough.

Unexpectedly, Harry and Malfoy's eyes flickered, and it seemed that they had already planned this.

Hermione sighed, except for Professor Trelawney's Divination class, she didn't think she would refuse any class.

But now this idea is beginning to waver under the power of the caterpillars.

There was a breathless moment as the group passed a farm of Flobber caterpillars.

Everyone thought Hagrid wanted them to take care of those caterpillars again.

Fortunately, Hagrid only led them along the edge of the forest. Five minutes later, they were already outside a paddock-like place. There is nothing there.

"Everyone come to this fence!"

Hagrid nodded condescendingly. After finding that there was no strange young person, he raised his hand and said loudly:

"Okay, wait here, Zhang, help me keep an eye on them and don't let anyone leave.

If anyone doesn't listen to Zhang, I will let you take care of the caterpillars for a whole year. I know you are afraid of this! "

The fear of the caterpillars overshadowed the suspicion that Hagrid seemed to suddenly become smarter.

Everyone was like armor in the castle, just standing there chatting quietly, guessing what Hagrid would get.

After a while, Lavender Brown suddenly screamed. She stretched her neck, pointed at several figures slowly walking in the distance, and screamed loudly.

Not only her, but many little wizards also marveled.

Those were a bunch of weird-looking guys.

They have the body, hind legs, and tail of a horse, but their front legs, wings, and head appear to be those of an eagle, and they have steel-colored sharp beaks and large, bright orange eyes.

Hippogriff?

Zhang Xiao looked at these strange-looking but not ugly creatures in surprise.

Around the neck of each beast was a thick feather collar, with a long chain attached to it. The ends of these chains were held in Hagrid's big hand, and he jogged after the animals. Paddock.

He shook the chain and called the guys to the fence where the class stood.

As I know, the Hippogriff is a very polite creature.

The trick to approaching it is to bow. If it bows back to you, it means it is willing to make contact with you.

Of course, Zhang Xiao chose the hippogriff named Buckbeak.

Because the number is limited, everyone has to form their own groups.

So the four little ones plus Zhang Xiao, everyone bowed to Buckbeak one by one.

Buckbeak was obviously the most loved one among the hippogriffs, and he was the only one who returned the gift to everyone.

And is willing to let everyone pat its sharp beak.

With Hagrid's encouragement, everyone rode it for a walk in the sky.

Zhang Xiao silently compared himself with riding a dragon, and then concluded that Noble was more comfortable riding one.

So he just had a taste of it and gave up his time to Malfoy, Ron and Hermione who were all enjoying themselves.

When Brother Ma came back sweating profusely from playing, his originally pale face was flushed with excitement, he sat down next to Zhang Xiao and wiped his sweat.

"It's a completely different flying experience from a broomstick. It's quite cool! Zhang, you should really ride it a few more times to feel the different charm."

Zhang Xiao looked at him with an indescribable look. Malfoy lowered his head and looked at himself inexplicably:

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Nothing, you like Buckbeak?"

"I like it!" Malfoy grinned and smiled very happily: "Zhang, don't you think hippogriffs are particularly in line with the ideals of nobility?

It is like a gentleman in Fantastic Beasts, elegant and graceful, always making himself look very neat and polite.

I heard Big Hagrid say that hippogriffs are particularly loyal. Aren't these noble qualities what we want the 'new pure-blood nobles' to have?

I decided that when my father came back from China, I would definitely convince him to raise a hippogriff in the manor! "

Zhang Xiao was silent for a while, patted the confused Malfoy, and laughed:

"That's good, why not just raise Buckbeak!"

In the original novel, Buckbeak was angrily criticized as an ugly monster, a beast, and a despicable creature.

Now when I talk about Buckbeak, his eyes seem to light up.

Zhang Xiao couldn't help but laugh again, and Malfoy asked doubtfully:

"Why are you laughing again? I always feel that something is not right with you today."

"Nothing." Zhang Xiao coughed twice and said suddenly:

"Draco—"

"uh-huh?"

"Become a great Slytherin!"

"You're really weird today. But that's for sure!"

Almost in the blink of an eye, the Christmas holidays are right around the corner.

In other parts of the castle, the usual magnificent decorations for Christmas are done, although there are not many students staying at the school every year.

But Hogwarts still decorated the castle grandly.

Thick friezes of holly and mistletoe were hung along the corridors, and mysterious lights shone from within each suit of armor.

Twelve Christmas trees were placed in the hall as usual, with golden stars shining on them. The corridor was filled with the strong and tempting aroma of cooking.

Zhang Xiao never thought that one day, Christmas gifts would become a difficult problem for him.

Originally, the time for taking a bath after exercising was his favorite time to relax.

Now all of it is used to think about how to give gifts for Christmas.

"Well, Professor Snape." Zhang Xiao hid in the pool and spit bubbles.

Originally, I planned to give the professor a set of middle school experimental equipment, which is beakers and test tubes.

But on second thought, giving Professor Snape some oriental materials is better than beakers and the like?

After all, with my ability to fleece Snape, doesn't it mean that I have everything Snape has?

So the higher the skills of Professor Snape, the better!

Well. So the most difficult one is Professor Flitwick.

Ever since this short professor got the auspicious cloud, it seems that his life has been fulfilled.

He fell into a kind of open-minded mentality of no desire and no demand, smiling all day long.

By the way, Professor Flitwick seems to like to have a drink when he has nothing to do.

How about some wine? Two boxes of Maotai?

Alas, it is too difficult to give gifts!

Professor Sprout of Hufflepuff is the best. This chubby professor is devoted to the "Ginseng Doll".

Just give her a copy of "Ginseng Cultivation Technology".

Other professors don't care and don't need it.

Then the problem is Professor McGonagall!

Thanks to myself, the whole Hogwarts last semester was calm and nothing bad happened.

Professor McGonagall rarely lived the life before Harry entered school.

Although the little wizard is still naughty, it is just a trivial matter in the eyes of Professor McGonagall who has experienced ups and downs.

As long as there are no trolls, two-faced people, basilisks, and no noses, then Hogwarts will be fine.

"Gululu" a series of bubbles came out of Zhang Xiao's mouth and nose, but it was at its limit.

Alas, what should Professor McGonagall give?

After taking a shower, Zhang Xiao walked towards the dormitory with a sad face.

I thought Professor McGonagall would like the moving stone lion I gave her last time, but she didn't recognize that this cute stone statue in China was a lion.

Zhang Xiao lay on the soft bed, staring at the top of the curtain in a trance.

Professor McGonagall is an avid Quidditch fan, and it is said that she was once the best player in Gryffindor.

It was only because of an accident that she bid farewell to the court, but her love for Quidditch remained undiminished.

Or give a broom?

Zhang Xiao immediately rejected this idea. If Professor McGonagall was young, it would be no problem to give her a broom.

But Minerva McGonagall, what kind of broom has she not seen?

She is no longer at the age of liking brooms. What she likes is the tactical discipline, fighting spirit, and determination to never give up shown in Quidditch.

So, Professor McGonagall actually has a heart that yearns for freedom?

Zhang Xiao suddenly thought of the happy meow spell in his previous life - the stone pillar is dispatched.

Maybe Professor McGonagall is not as old-fashioned and boring as people guess?

So. How about I give her a flying motorcycle?

Zhang Xiao pulled down the curtain and laughed.

Sleep, sleep

After turning off the light that illuminated the bed, Zhang Xiao was about to get into bed.

But he saw a bright spark suddenly appear in the curtain.

Then there was a flash of fire.

A note and a phoenix tail feather fell from the sky.

Zhang Xiao frowned, stretched out his hand to pinch the note, and snapped his fingers.

The light came on again, and Dumbledore's fluent cursive words were seen on it:

"I have found another important clue to the Horcrux."
