The Ministry of Magic's handling was very simple. After all, the French Ministry of Magic really lacked the ability to control Luke. If you say that Luke completely ignores the French Ministry of Magic, that is definitely a bit too much. But if you want to say that the French Ministry of Magic can force Luke to do something, then you are looking down on the French Ministry of Magic.
Privilege is everywhere, and Luke has one of the greatest privileges.
When Luke and the others were talking about business, these young Aurors were not qualified to participate. If it was their boss, there might be a chance.
After simply prevaricating the people who came to the Strange family, Luke followed Gemma and took Dumbledore and the Delacour family back to the mansion prepared by Gemma.
"This is a villa owned by the Kane family. Lain gave it to me to use as an office outside. Anyway, he is always bored in the experimental workshop and never goes out."
Gemma explains to Luke the origin of this house. Luke didn't pay too much attention and just nodded. Although the location here is good, it is definitely not interesting compared to the resort estate that the Kane family really values.
"I remember that Kane's family should have several wine estates, and old Lance's family will also have such things. Let them provide a more spacious place next time."
Luke didn't dislike it here, but he obviously didn't look particularly satisfied.
It's not that I'm dissatisfied with the house, but I'm dissatisfied with some people's attitudes. Ryan Kane can also be said to forget some things when he studies them. But old Lance shouldn't make this mistake.
A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years! It’s so easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time while driving or before going to bed by reading and listening to books. You can download it here..]
Gemma nodded. These are all small things. Luke said, then it wouldn't be a bad thing for her to hit old Lance.
The maid will lead the 'guests' headed by Dumbledore to the living room and let them drink some tea first.
Dumbledore, on the other hand, was not polite at all. He greeted Delacour, mother and daughter like a master, and then gave Luke a look that said, "I wish you were blessed."
Then……
"Can you tell me something first next time you do something? Do you know how much trouble you got into when you disappeared this time?"
Gemma slapped the table hard and looked at Luke as if she wanted to eat him alive.
Luke smiled. Of course he could guess how much trouble Gemma would encounter during the nearly two days and one night he was missing. He also knew that just now, Gemma suppressed her anger outside in order to protect Luke's face.
Now that the two of them are alone together, there is no need to be angry. After all, she can't just be regarded as Luke's subordinate.
The wind blew outside the window, and looking at the angry Gemma in front of him, Luke really felt as wronged as June Feixue.
"You really don't blame me. How could I do such an irresponsible thing? It was Dumbledore who wanted to test me, and then asked the dark wizard to tie me up. At the same time, it was also to avoid encountering Nico when he went to find him. Get into some completely avoidable trouble. So do it in secret.”
Luke wanted to swear on the spot that he was really not willing to help Dumbledore take the blame.

Gemma looked at Luke with some suspicion. Although she and Dumbledore were not very familiar, they were not that strange. From what she knew about Dumbledore, it seemed that Dumbledore couldn't do such a thing.
But Luke had no need to lie about this kind of thing. After all, Gemma couldn't do anything to him, whether he was telling the truth or talking nonsense. So Gemma sighed helplessly, looking at Luke's look, she couldn't let out any anger.
"Both of them, no, old Lance asked you to come to France to find me?"
Luke looked at Gemma who was a little depressed and asked seriously.
When Gemma heard him asking about business, she cheered up again and said seriously: "No, they are not that anxious yet. Although it can be seen that old Lance was a little too submissive. But after all, they still did not spend two days and one night in this time period. He turned his back."
Two days and one night, this time span is indeed a bit short. If it's two months, something might really go wrong. Two days is not enough.
Luke nodded. In this case, it still makes sense. If old Lance Face can't hold on for a while, he will really look for an opportunity to cut off from the Lance family.
But think about it, it is definitely impossible for the cunning old Lance to reveal his flaws so easily. If it were the little Lance back then, maybe it would really be possible.
Of course, this is not a test that Luke gave his men.
Never test the heart. Because that is the thing that cannot withstand the test the most. This time Luke passively tested the people under his command. I don’t know if Dumbledore also meant this.
But Luke knows that there will definitely be some people who couldn't help but jump out during the two days when Dumbledore was missing, and they have been noticed. Now, after Dumbledore appears, they will Luke didn't know what he was facing.
"Anyway, when you go back, give me a stick first and then some sweet dates."
Luke felt a little headache and rubbed his eyebrows with the knuckle of his index finger.
He doesn't need everyone to move forward around his ideals. Not all of the people who followed him wanted to change the existing order. There must be many people who wanted to benefit from this process.
Do people like this have to kick them out of the team? For now, it's certainly not necessary.
"Okay, I understand." Gemma nodded, then looked Luke up and down, and frowned slightly, "Isn't Mr. Nico Flamel able to help you recover?"
Luke shook his head, then looked at his little arms and legs, and said helplessly: "Yes, yes, but if you want to recover, I'm afraid you have to wait a few more days."
…………
"Dumbledore and that brat are fine. The drama between the two of them has shaken many people."
Snape placed the letter and Dumbledore's token on the table. Professor McGonagall and other professors also breathed a sigh of relief when they saw these things. Although they said they had full confidence in Dumbledore, they still relaxed a lot after getting the confirmation.
Professor McGonagall looked at the text in the letter saying that Luke was also safe, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, this kind of relaxation was only temporary. Soon, she fell into deep worry again.
"Luke and the others are looking for Nico Flamel, right? Has his matter been resolved?"
Professor McGonagall asked doubtfully.
After hearing this question, Snape showed a meaningful smile on his face.
"Solved? It's almost solved."
However, during the solution process, he didn't know how much ingredients would be mixed into the bottle of medicine that would not affect the effect but would affect the taste.
Ha, how many times did this guy trick him last school year, how many times did he use him to make a raft, and this time he, Severus Snape, wanted to pay them all back. Let this damn brat remember that not everyone is someone he can mess with!
Professor McGonagall also looked a little helpless after seeing Snape's eager expression.
"By the way, Minerva." Snape seemed to have thought of something unhappy, and the smile on his face almost instantly turned into one that looked as if he had swallowed a thousand flies and was full. His face said, "Dumbledore asked you to contact our next Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."
As soon as these words came out, not only Snape, but also the other professors' expressions became slightly complicated.
But most of them were much more relaxed.
At least Dumbledore had no intention of sending them to that position.
Professor McGonagall closed her eyes helplessly and said tiredly: "Who did he choose this time?"
Snape looked ugly and sneered: "Gilderoy Lockhart."
As soon as this name came out, the expressions of the professors present became even weirder.
After a moment of silence, Professor Flitwick stroked his chin and said, "I have also read a few of his books. The writing is very good and the content is detailed. Although there is a little sense of fragmentation, but... he should be a somewhat capable person. People."
"To be honest, with this situation, we really can't expect the students to learn anything in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class."
Professor Flitwick also looked helpless when he said this.
There is no way. For teachers of other subjects, three to five years is considered a short time. The Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher changes every year, and after so many years, Dumbledore really can't find anyone with a high level to teach the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
Of course, some of the professors present looked at Snape with a rather strange look on his face. They all knew that Professor Snape had a special liking for Defense Against the Dark Arts, but similarly, potions masters were considered rare animals in the wizarding world. How could Dumbledore be willing to abandon this Potions Master who had finally found him so hard?
Although it sounds a bit cold-blooded to say this, a wizard of Quirrell's level can indeed be used as a consumable. But wizards like Professor Snape can't do that.
"Girold Lockhart? Got it? Ha!"
Snape laughed unceremoniously.
Professor Flitwick shook his head and didn't care. To be honest, in the eyes of wizards of their level, Gerald Lockhart's story is not a big problem. Every story is reasonable and even somewhat exciting.

However, when so many stories happen to the same person at the same time, this itself does not make sense. Especially since there is nothing in common between these stories except the person of Gerald Lockhart.
This in itself is a big doubt, but no one has any evidence, and it seems that there is no need to expose this person's true identity.
Although some people thought his story was made up, everyone just watched it for fun and got over it. They didn't know what kind of dirty story lay behind Lockhart's story.
"Don't worry, whether it's true or not, we'll find out when school starts this year."
Professor Sprout smiled gently: "If Lockhart is really the same person as the person in his story, then the curse left by this mysterious man must not be able to do anything to him."
Snape's sneer only grew wider and wider, while Professor McGonagall shook her head helplessly.
"Okay, leave it to me to contact you."
Professor McGonagall sighed: "The summer vacation has only been over for a few days, and there are so many things going on... I feel like this year will not be peaceful."
…………
"Mrs. Maxim? Why are you here too?"
Fleur stood up, looked at the tall woman, and asked with a surprised look on her face.
Gabrielle beside her trotted forward and hugged the arm of the man next to Madame Maxime.
"dad!"
Mr. Delacour touched his youngest daughter's head, and then looked at his eldest daughter and his wife not far away.
Lady Delacour gave her husband a reassuring look. Then he greeted Mrs. Maxim. The relationship between Fleur and Madame Maxime was very good. In other words, as a mother, she is confident that as long as Fleur is willing, she can have a good relationship with anyone.
After Mrs. Maxim greeted Mrs. Delacour, she looked at her favorite protégé and said helplessly: "I didn't expect you to be involved in such a thing. But it's not because of you that I came here this time."
After a brief response, Madam Maxime looked at Dumbledore, who was sitting on the side.
"Long time no see, Albus."
"It's been a long time indeed, Olim."
This was a private meeting, and the two people's titles were relatively casual.
Dumbledore stood up and the two shook hands.
"I'm also quite curious. If you didn't come here for Miss Delacour, then why?"
Dumbledore smiled and greeted.
Madame Maxime's face was not pretty.
"Because I just received a notification from Mr. Nicolás Flamel and Mrs. Perenal Flamel. They told me that our Beauxbatons Chancellor has been replaced."
As soon as these words came out, Dumbledore's expression became a little strange. He could probably guess who the new school director was.
I just don’t know if the new school director knows that he has become a school director.
"Don't worry, he is also the school director of Hogwarts. It's not a bad thing."
Dumbledore's words of comfort to Madame Maxime made Madame Maxime feel even weirder.

"Mr. Gunter is the director of magic schools in two countries at the same time?"
She was surprised. Although she knew that the surname Gunter was noble in an absolute sense, after all, the most famous thing about this family in the past few decades was that it had declined.
But now, after an heir appears, the power of this family seems to have become a towering building overnight, and everything is in the hands of an eleven-year-old, almost twelve-year-old boy.
This inevitably makes people feel a little unreal.
Dumbledore didn't know what Mrs. Maxim was thinking, so he just nodded: "Although he is not the Head Governor of Hogwarts."
"But don't worry, he's pretty easy to get along with."
As he spoke, Dumbledore looked at Fleur and said to Madame Maxime: "And I should also compromise with you."
"If your relationship is good enough."
As smart as Madame Maxime, of course she knew that Dumbledore was not talking about her relationship with Luke.
She nodded thoughtfully.
"I see."
