But the problem is, you are not old enough to obtain the Apparition license yet, and the Ministry of Magic has banned floo fans for safety reasons, so you can only use portkeys for the time being.

Of course, if you like to fly on a broomstick for several hours in the middle of the night, that’s okay.”

"Your Excellency, Minister, I think it may be possible to issue a temporary license to Soth. After all, special circumstances are treated specially. The biggest difference between geniuses and ordinary people is that their talents are not subject to age restrictions." Umbridge hurriedly stood up.

Came out and interrupted.

"Issuing a temporary license?" Fudge rubbed his chin and thought about the feasibility of this matter.

After all, as the Minister of Magic, he has many privileges.

The only question is whether doing so will trigger internal parliamentary opposition.

Umbridge undoubtedly understood the indecisive character of her immediate boss, and immediately stepped forward and whispered in his ear for a while.

Finally, under her persuasion, Fudge immediately promised: "Give me a few days, and next week you will receive a temporary license to use Apparition within the UK."

"Thank you for your generosity. I will remember this favor. And of course, you, Ms. Umbridge." Zuo Si bowed gracefully.

"Haha, you're welcome. After all, you have made so many contributions to the magical world, and it is only natural that the Ministry of Magic should give back appropriately." Umbridge raised the corner of her mouth with a proud smile.

You don't need to ask to know that what she did just now was deliberately to show her ability to control the Minister of Magic in front of her.

After a brief exchange of greetings, the group, led by Fudge, quickly walked into the Department of Mysteries, which has the highest level of confidentiality in the entire Ministry of Magic.

Using an elevator to go deeper underground, the first thing you see is a simple and simple black door. After passing through the door, you see a round black room.

However, Zuo Si noticed that whether it was the door behind him or the room at his feet, the walls were densely covered with hundreds of protective spell effects.

Its power is even greater than that of Hogwarts Castle.

On the wall of the black room, you can see twelve doors without any marks, handles or decorations.

It's impossible to tell the difference with the naked eye.

Whenever someone comes in, the wall will rotate rapidly, making it impossible to distinguish them by remembering their location.

Some candles with a faint blue light were burning continuously, providing a faint light.

As for the ground under your feet, it is like a black pool, as if it is about to swallow everyone up.

But the people at the Ministry of Magic obviously have some way of distinguishing these doors.

Fudge took the lead without hesitation and walked directly into the passage on the far right.

The moment he crossed the threshold, Zuo Si instantly felt that he was transported from one space to another.

After briefly losing his sense of direction, he found that the group was already in a huge oval room filled with various animals.

On the table in the center of the room, there is a second magic stone and the box used to hold it.

"Ah! Mr. Minister, you are finally here. If I guess correctly, this should be the creator of the magic stone and magic mercury."

The short person in charge hurried over and stared at Zuo Si with an almost admiring look.

After all, the boundary between life and death is something more mysterious and elusive than time magic.

But with the success of the resurrection from the dead experiment, he saw an opportunity to pry into the mysteries of the afterlife.

"This is..."

Zuo Si obviously didn't know the other person, so he turned his attention to Fudge beside him.

But before the latter could speak, Umbridge immediately rushed to answer: "This is Professor Herman, the first person to propose the ghost hypothesis. He has very in-depth knowledge about the soul and death.

Researched and even invented many spells that can have an effect on ghosts."

"Ah! It turns out to be Professor Herman. I have read your papers and opinions published in the Daily Prophet. Some of them have given me very profound inspiration. It is a great honor to meet you." Zuo Si took the initiative to extend his right hand to the other party.

Shake it.

He has always respected these highly professional talents, even if their research direction is very likely to be wrong.

"No, no, no, I should say that I am honored. Your epoch-making great invention broke the boundary between life and death for the first time! It allowed me to peek into the place where the soul goes after death. Unfortunately, inside the Magic Stone

The amount of magic mercury that can be stored is too small, and it is very troublesome to replenish it, and it will completely evaporate once exposed to the air for twenty-four hours."

Professor Herman explained all the problems encountered in the experiment.

Obviously, he hopes to get some solutions or suggestions from the creator of the Philosopher's Stone.

But Zuo Si smiled and shook his head: "Sorry, professor, I may not be able to help you in this regard.

Because magic mercury is highly condensed magic power and vitality, it can easily evaporate or react with other things if not properly stored.

It is precisely because of this that it can restore a corpse or even a skeleton to its original state and recall the soul of the deceased.

In addition to the magic stone itself, I only know that some crystals containing magic and containers shaped by several special gems can slightly extend the storage time."

"Containers made of crystals and gemstones that contain magic? That's great! Thanks for your reminder, I finally have a clue."

Professor Herman suddenly felt like he had found a treasure, and in the next ten minutes, he showed Zuo Si the experimental data he had conducted during this period, as well as the various events that appeared after August Lukewood was killed and resurrected.

kind of reaction.

This kind of purely academic exchange naturally suits Zuo Si's taste.

As the two chatted, they left a lot of people behind, including Fudge, and fully discussed everything from the initial resurrection process to the differences between ghosts and ordinary souls.

You must know that the most annoying thing about English is its complicated and numerous professional vocabulary.

If you are not a relevant practitioner, ordinary people may have never heard of these words in their lives, let alone know and understand their meaning.

This is true in the world of Muggles, and it is still true in the magical world.

In order to communicate better, Professor Zuo Si and Professor Herman even started to use French and Latin in some places where ambiguity is prone to occur.

This kind of behavior caused Fudge, Umbridge and other Ministry of Magic bureaucrats on the side to have no idea what the two were talking about. They could only stare and nod in agreement, pretending that they understood.

It looks like it’s gone.

Otherwise, if it is discovered that I don’t understand it at all, it will be so embarrassing if word gets out.

From this point alone, we can see that the fine traditions of the bureaucrats of the Great Empire have also left a deep imprint on the wizards.

Fortunately, Zuo Si noticed the embarrassment of Fudge and others in time. After learning the information he wanted, he quickly ended the communication with Professor Herman and exchanged addresses for future contact through letters.

After doing all this, he immediately said with a smile: "Mr. Minister, it seems that the Ministry of Magic has begun to try to resurrect the dead. Now I want to know how you plan to deal with this matter from a legal and ethical level.

What about defining it?"

Instantly!

Fudge's face became serious, and he responded in as cautious a tone as possible: "I am discussing with other members of Parliament in parliament to formulate a corresponding law to restrict this act of resurrecting the dead.

But don't worry, we will never resurrect those Death Eaters and bad guys who have caused huge damage to the British wizarding community.

On the contrary, we want to resurrect the heroes who made outstanding contributions and sacrificed their lives in the last war."

"So... you mean that the Ministry of Magic will conduct a semi-public resurrection in the near future?" Zuo Si keenly grasped the key points.

"That's right! We already have a candidate, if you have no objections."

Umbridge quickly handed over a piece of parchment with the name and information written on it.

Zuo Si took a look at it and found that the name above was actually Gideon Prewett.

If I remember correctly, this man is the brother of Molly Weasley and the uncle of Ron and the Weasley twins. He once joined the Order of the Phoenix during the First Wizarding War and faced off against Voldemort's minions.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

It is said that he and his brother Fabian Prewett teamed up to fight against five powerful Death Eaters and fought and retreated. In the end, they were defeated and killed on the spot because they were outnumbered.

Obviously, the reason why the Ministry of Magic chose to resurrect such a well-known tragic hero is to establish a more fair image.

And although the Prewett family is not as good as those pure bloods that have been passed down for thousands of years, they are also quite powerful in the magic world.

Even though Molly has been living in a tight situation since she married Arthur, she always looks like she is very poor.

But in fact, the families behind this couple are quite wealthy.

Zuo Si bets that the Prewett family must have used many connections and donated a large sum of money to the Ministry of Magic to finally successfully win this precious first quota.

Thinking of this, he immediately responded: "I don't have any objections to the candidates. But there is a small problem that you may not have noticed."

"Oh? What is it!" Fudge showed a curious look on his face.

Zuo Si replied meaningfully: "It's memory! According to several experiments I conducted privately, I found that as the time of death increases, the resurrected people will have varying degrees of amnesia. Considering that the last wizard war has passed

In ten years, after Gideon Prewett is resurrected, he may forget who he is, and may not even recognize his friends and relatives."

"You...you resurrected a dead man? Who is he?" Professor Herman's tone suddenly became excited.

"Sorry, in order to protect the privacy of the person involved, it is not convenient for me to reveal the name now. However, after the Ministry of Magic promulgates the corresponding laws, the answer should be revealed soon. Please rest assured that I have resurrected some innocent victims, not

What a vicious person." Zuo Si solemnly gave his assurance.

"Amnesia? It seems that I need to inform the Prewett family so that they can be mentally prepared." Fudge frowned subconsciously.

After all, he got a large sum of "favor fees" from the other party.

"Your Excellency, it would be better for you to take care of this matter in person, so you can leave it to me." Umbridge immediately jumped out and volunteered.

Just now, this ambitious woman was still trying to find some excuse to send Fudge away, but as soon as she fell asleep, someone brought her a pillow.
