Eighty-three: their respective positions
Harry looked at what had just happened, a little stunned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He knew very well that the big black dog pinned to the ground was his godfather, Siris Black, but it seemed that Dumbledore did not have any dissatisfaction with Holly's actions, and the girl also seemed to know that the big black dog was Siris Black.
But Dumbledore didn't give him much time to be stunned......
Harry took a deep breath and began to speak as he left the labyrinth.
From the time he was tied to the tombstone by Peter Pettigrew, to the ritual of resurrecting the Dark Lord, and then he faintly heard a voice taunting the Dark Lord, and the last Death Eaters to appear in the woods.
When Harry said that Peter Pettigrew had used his blood, Dumbledore's face changed a few times, but he eventually returned to his original appearance.
Then Harry continued, talking about his battle with Foldermot, about the two men having their wands connected...... Speaking of the countless Muggles that appeared from the Dark Lord's wand later, as well as the images of his parents......
At the end, several teachers were a little moved, with the exception of Professor Snape, of course......
When the final sentence was finished, there was only silence in the headmaster's room.
Dumbledore and Siris Black took Harry Potter to the school hospital, where he was accompanied by the Weasleys and Hermione.
By the time Dumbledore returned to the Headmaster's office, a long time had passed, but no one was impatient.
Everyone consciously made a chair for themselves, and their faces were full of heaviness.
When Dumbledore came in, he saw the same scene.
"How's it going? Alastor Moody is doing now?" was Professor McGonagall who spoke first.
"Moody's condition is fine, it's just that he's a little weak because he hasn't been active for too long, but it's ......" Dumbledore paused.
"I think ......" Dumbledore paused, hesitating to express his guess, but was interrupted by Snape.
"I think that Professor Moody, who we've been working with for almost a year, is probably a Death Eater?"
"That's how it should be. Dumbledore agreed.
"And then?" Holly continued.
"Maybe we should be glad that he didn't do anything too much in school. Dumbledore told a bad joke, but didn't set the mood up.
"Okay, now that it's happened, I think we're going to need to deal with it next. Dumbledore concluded.
"First of all, I think we need the help of the Ministry of Magic. Dumbledore set his sights on Holly and Erinka.
"It doesn't seem like we can help much. Holly shook her head and explained. "We're in the fifth grade, and we've made a deal with the old diehards in the ministry that we won't interfere with anything in the ministry for the next year in exchange for them gradually handing over power over the next few years...... Of course, if the matter involves us, we can still ask about it. ”
"That's right. Dumbledore's brow furrowed when he heard Holly's words.
"Maybe you can try to convince Cornelius. Erinka offers a new way of thinking. "But I don't think Connelly would be happy that you had anything to do with any of the Ministry's affairs. In fact, this time, it was also Connelly's attempt to override the two of us. ”
"Okay, but if there's something, you two might need to help with something. ”
"We will do our best within our means. Helly didn't give an affirmative answer, just a promise to do his best.
Dumbledore nodded, Holly was able to give a promise, which was beyond Dumbledore's expectations, and it was rare that Holly did not negotiate any terms with him.
In fact, Holly, who was invited by Dumbledore, was also relieved.
Compromise with the group of antiques from the Ministry of Magic is also a choice made by Holly in desperation, after all, according to the urine nature of the Ministry of Magic, plus Lucius's group, most of them have more or less connections with the Dark Lord.
The Dark Lord rushed out of the rivers and lakes, and he would definitely have to lurk for a while, and before that, Lucius and they would definitely not openly rebel, on the contrary, they might still use the cover of the Ministry of Magic to provide some cover or policy help for the actions of the Death Eaters.
Whatever the end result, by the time the Dark Lord comes out, the Ministry of Magic will inevitably be in turmoil. Whoever wins or loses between the Dark Lord and Dumbledore, the Minister of Magic will be affected......
Considering this situation, Holly agreed to the proposal that didn't seem very reliable, and it was important to at least take himself out of this matter first. It's not even too late to wait until the dust settles on Dumbledore and the Dark Lord before deciding what to do next.
Unable to get the best answer he was looking for from Holly and Erinka, Dumbledore was not too disappointed. It would be best to have the full support of the Ministry of Magic through these two girls, but even without the support of the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore would have the confidence to fight the Dark Lord.
What's more, judging from the information revealed by Holly and Erinka, it is very likely that there will be a relatively chaotic period within the Ministry of Magic.
When the Dark Lord returns, it is impossible not to clean up his subordinates, at least some of the scum that has rebelled or wandered, and these people, even if they are not at the top of the Ministry of Magic, are widely in the middle and low levels. These positions happen to be coveted by Dumbledore now, and for a long time, Cornelius Fudge has been very repulsive to the people Dumbledore has attracted in the Ministry of Magic, and because of the large number of candidates to choose from, most of those who are more convinced of Dumbledore are left by Fudge or sent to work in some very marginal departments.
This also seriously affected Dumbledore's access to information at the Ministry of Magic, especially after Holly took over the positions of the Peverell family, and Dumbledore even had trouble finding another excuse to go to the Ministry of Magic......
If you go to the Ministry of Magic for some trivial things, it is estimated that the next day there should be rumors in the entire wizarding world that Dumbledore is already old and confused, and if it is really a problem that Dumbledore himself finds difficult, Dumbledore feels that even if he goes to the Ministry of Magic, he will not gain anything, and it may even cause panic in the entire wizarding world......
Dumbledore is now in such an awkward situation, his sphere of influence is shrinking year by year, not because of anything else, but because those who have fought with him or who have recognized him very much, one by one, are getting older, and they are slowly fading out of the circle of the Ministry of Magic or losing their strength as before...... This is still quite hurtful for Dumbledore, after all, old friends are getting older day by day, but there is not much new force to add in......
