Chapter 30: The Meeting (End)
"Ciris Black, what's there to talk about him, the betrayer of that family should be arrested and put back in Azkaban!" said the voice from the portrait next to the headmaster's room. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
"Phineas, don't get so excited," Dumbledore reassured.
"So, who is this old gentleman?" said Holly, looking at the portrait.
"Phineas Nigelus Black, former Matriarch of the Black family, former Headmaster of Hogwarts. It was a pleasure to meet you, Countess. Phineas introduced in the portrait.
"Well, Hogwarts' most unpopular headmaster, not one of them. A portrait next to him teased.
"Enough, I knew you were going to smear me like that. Phineas turned and rushed into the other portrait, and the portrait in the headmaster's room was jumping.
"So, are you going to save Blake's life?" said Holly, raising an eyebrow.
"Isn't that possible?" Dumbledore raised his eyebrows demonstratively.
"I don't think Siris Black will hide so well from the Dementors or the Aurors. ā
"What if Blake was caught and then escaped for some reason?"
"I don't think the Ministry of Magic and the Wizengamot won't send a lot of Aurors to look after Cialis Black, unless..."
"You know, our Deputy Minister for Magic is at Hogwarts today... What would you have said would have been his reaction if he had caught Cialis Black after failing to carry out Buckbeak's execution?"
"Well, we can leave this matter untouched, but... If you do anything inside, it's best not to let us know... Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to explain. ā
"As long as you two don't remind Connelly, I think it's fine. ā
"Well, it looks like you've stolen up with Cyris Black. If there are any other conditions, please tell them and listen to them. "Holly doesn't want to continue this kind of slow negotiation with Dumbledore.
"And some... About Harry's permission to Hogsmeade. ā
"Why? After making sure that Blake was no threat to Harry, did you decide to let him out?Or did you find that there was no way to restrict his activities anyway, so you simply let him go out by himself, at least with his companions?, if Voldemort came back one day, would you still be relieved that he was wandering around Hogsmeade?" Holly teased.
"You can do whatever you want, in fact, Ciris Black can also give Harry a certificate, but it's just a little more troublesome. Dumbledore was unimpressed.
"No problem, I'll go to Penny and help him get the authorization, but... Shouldn't we talk about the other conditions?"
"What do you want? I don't think there's anything in school that gives you a headache. ā
"That big event the following year... I'm not allowed to be left out. ā
Hearing Holly's request, Dumbledore fell into thought.
"The Ministry of Magic is only in charge of coordinating the event, and Barty Crouch is in charge of the specific things, so I don't think I have a chance to influence the game. ā
"Good...... I'm thinking about how to do that......" Dumbledore hesitated in agreement.
"Hmm... I think... Headmaster, you probably have a lot of things to do, so I won't bother you yet, and maybe during the holidays, if I come across something that you will also be interested in, I will let you know. Holly smiled and left the office. In the portraits on the walls, the principals of different eras are still in chaos. (End of Volume III)
