Chapter 25: Discussion of the Order of the Phoenix (3)
Dumbledore set his sights on Holly, as if hoping that Holly would be able to help with the message's cell phone, at least, to be involved in the work of listening to the news. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I'm not going to mix it up. On the 12th, I had something else to do. Well, Cornelly wouldn't be happy for me to get involved, and you wouldn't be either...... After all, if I put another foot in it, I guess the situation will get completely out of control...... Connelly is far more wary of me than you, Dumbledore. Holly interjected abruptly.
"Who cares about an old madman who spends his days talking crazy and shouting that the world is about to be destroyed?" Hollimer silently mended his knife, taking himself out of the matter and belittling Dumbledore on the other. It can't do any real damage to Dumbledore, but at least it can breathe, can it.
"So...... So be it. But it's the same question that has been said for a long time, and now, we need a convincing teacher for the Defence Against the Dark Arts course. If we can't find a suitable candidate by the end of the month, then we'll probably have to accept a candidate appointed by the Ministry of Magic......"
As soon as Dumbledore mentioned this, everyone in the audience fell silent. Hogwarts, in the eyes of the Order of the Phoenix, is their home base, almost everyone in the British wizarding world is from Hogwarts, of course, there are a few foreign magic schools or taught by their families in their own homes.
Can't let Hogwarts fall, that's everyone's idea, but there is no suitable candidate in everyone's mind.
Holly looked at everyone present, and of course, the Potions teacher who was eager to try it.
"Severus, don't say it. I wouldn't agree. Dumbledore gave Snape a slap in the head.
"Why?"
"It's not right now. Dumbledore said a lot.
Holly looked at Snape, who was sitting in his chair with a dissatisfied expression, and laughed secretly in his heart.
It is said that Dumbledore is full of wisdom and is a wise man, but the Potions teacher who can independently create dark magic and many potion recipes is not comparable to ordinary people.
With ordinary Muggle blood, but living in Slyerin with ease, and even maintaining a good relationship with Lily during school, he did not let himself be rejected by the people of Slyerin, which at least shows that Snape is definitely far more than ordinary people in the direction of self-concealment.
Snape had expected Dumbledore's refusal this time. Even Dumbledore's refusal just now was in the imagination of the Potions teacher......
As was Dumbledore's habit, he wouldn't leave much of his hands on anyone else unless he was convinced that he couldn't be in full control.
The teacher of the Defence Against the Dark Arts course is also an important way for him to take control of Hogwarts. Changing teachers once a year is also a move to reshuffle the various forces in the school.
The cowardly Qula, the unusually Lockhart, the kind Lupin, and the battle-hardened Moody are all different personalities, and they also have various checks and balances on all aspects of the school.
Old Bee is a very controlling guy, and the same is true for Holly, the Dark Lord, and even Snape. In other words, any wizard whose strength has reached the ninth order has more or less such a desire for control, and even as his strength increases, this desire for control will also increase......
Whoever stands in that high position will not be willing to become someone else's puppet. It's just that unlike Dumbledore and the Dark Lord's obvious desire for control, Snape is better able to hide his desires and thoughts. Holly's situation was different, but her experience as a child, and her defeat against Dumbledore in her first year, had made her more accustomed to secretly accumulating strength and then bursting with a deadly blow.
It was for this reason that Fleur was called from France to England by Holly. Bill Weasley, this is Holly's target for Fleur, and of course it has something to do with Fleur and Bill looking at each other before......
Holly's task for Fleur was quite simple. While hooking up with Bill, he duly separated Bill and Charlie, who had a good relationship with Bill, from the Weasley family.
The two adult members of the Weasley family are also a good fighting force. If Dumbledore was allowed to bring these two Weasleys into the Order of the Phoenix, it would also be an effective addition to the Order of the Phoenix...... But now, even if they are nominally helping the Order of the Phoenix pass on some news and contacting some foreign white wizards to deal with the Dark Lord together, since no one supervises the work of the two, how the two of them operated, except for the parties involved, no one knows what the two of them did and what kind of effect they had. Even though Dumbledore was influential abroad, he couldn't reach abroad.
Otherwise, it would not be Cornelius Fudge alone, but a group of leaders of the Ministries of Magic in various European countries.
What Bill and Charlie did was only a private communication, and it was impossible to leave any written evidence. If the Dark Lord or his supporters find out, the evidence is a rope around their necks, a talisman for them......
As for the contract, no one is willing to do so unless it is a last resort or a particularly intimate relationship, and it is more terrible than leaving written evidence, and there is no willingness to put his whole life in the hands of others.
No one responded to Dumbledore, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
In the end, though, it was Dumbledore himself who broke the somewhat eerie calm. "Well, it looks like we're going to get back in touch with old friends. ”
"Hmm. Everyone nodded, but everyone had almost no confidence in Dumbledore's attempt......
The Defence Against the Dark Arts Teacher's curse is quite famous in the wizarding world. And wizards who have a good relationship with Dumbledore or Phoenix received an early warning from Dumbledore as soon as the Dark Lord returned...... In this case, to take on a cursed position, a position in which all kinds of things have been happening in recent years, not everyone is like Lupin and Moody, alone, unconcerned, and not afraid of any consequences...... At least, people don't seem to have that kind of person around them......
After receiving Dumbledore's signal that there was no follow-up to discuss, everyone got up and prepared to leave, but someone still stopped Holly......
