The atmosphere inside England's Ministry of Magic was very strange today.
The employees who should have been busy with work all seemed distracted. They deliberately lowered their voices when speaking, as though afraid of disturbing something.
Whenever they passed through a corridor on the first basement level, they instinctively slowed down and secretly watched the meeting room at the end of the hall.
At that moment, two Male Wizards had set up chairs outside the meeting room door, preventing anyone else from approaching. It was said that an emergency meeting was being held inside.
Every employee working at the Ministry of Magic knew that everyone seated inside that meeting room was a Death Eater.
No one knew what those bastards were planning this time. Nothing good ever came from their meetings.
Yet there was nothing they could do about it. They could only passively wait to receive more bad news.
However, the situation inside the meeting room was quite different from what most people imagined.
These Death Eaters dressed in splendid finery were not discussing anything wicked. They... they were listening to the radio. More precisely, they were listening to a Wizard Watchtower broadcast.
After Albert had Lee Jordan begin spreading information through the Wizard Watchtower broadcasts, the dark wizard responsible for monitoring the station reported the bombshell to Yaxley. That was how the ridiculous scene of the Death Eaters' upper ranks collectively listening to the radio in the meeting room came about.
In truth, quite a few Death Eaters found it absurd that Yaxley had made such a fuss, only to summon them here to listen to a broadcast together.
But none of them dared say anything reckless.
Yaxley was the Dark Lord's right-hand man, and this matter involved that damned Mudblood. There was no harm in being cautious.
