"What about Stan Sanpark?" Hermione asked, "you're not going to keep him locked up, are you?"

"I'm afraid it's still closed, I know Dumbledore had wanted to appeal directly to Scrimgeour on ThornPark's behalf......" Mr. Weasley said, "Everyone who has spoken to Sampak thinks he can't be a Death Eater, in fact, anyone with a normal IQ knows he's not, but he shouldn't say these things at this time, I think it's still necessary to teach him a lesson, and I want to make progress on it, 'arresting three' sounds much better than 'accidentally arresting three,' of course, if it does turn out to be ' Three people are released by mistake, that's terrible, isn't it? However, these are highly confidential, don't tell them. ”

"Isn't there anything the ministry can do?" asked Hermione with a sigh.

Mr. Weasley seemed to be thinking, then shook his head, "To be honest, I don't think so, Scrimgeour is counting on Dumbledore now, but Dumbledore doesn't plan to reveal his plans to the Ministry of Magic. ”

That's right, neither Horcruxes nor evil gods should be something that the Ministry of Magic or ordinary wizards know.

What can they do if they know it? Stop Voldemort, stop making trouble, you might be scared into despair.

Evan felt that what the Ministry of Magic should do now was to try to stabilize the situation as much as possible so that it would not continue to deteriorate.

Scrimgeour is actually doing a pretty good job at this, far better than his predecessor, Fudge.

He took the right approach when it came to maintaining law and order, dealing with vampires, and entrapping giants. Although it is true that the wrong person was caught and the braggart Stan Sanpak was caught in Azkaban, at least it played a certain deterrent role in making other fools dare not brag about such unknown things.

Since the news of Voldemort's return was confirmed, Britain, as the core of this imminent war, has remained stable, and has not suffered as many disasters as other countries, with direct collapse, social unrest or large-scale riots, which is very valuable.

Compared to Fudge, Scrimgeour did do a lot of work.

But he wasn't satisfied with that, as an old Auror and a powerful minister, he hoped to catch Voldemort;

The wizards were not satisfied with this, and they also hoped that the Ministry of Magic would catch Voldemort as soon as possible.

In this way, things become awkward, because he simply does not have the ability and possibility to catch Voldemort.

Unrealistic expectations have led to growing disappointment with him and the work of the Ministry of Magic.

If this continues, it is only time for Scrimgeour to be ousted.

Moreover, Evan also knew that there was not that much time left for Scrimgeur.

When Voldemort was ready to start a full-scale counterattack, the first thing to clean up was the Ministry of Magic, so as to announce the official start of the war.

If Dumbledore had any more accidents, the Ministry of Magic would be finished!

That's the way it is now, it's a waste of effort to count on the Ministry of Magic or something, and you still have to rely on yourself.

While Aven, Hermione, and Mr. Weasley were discussing the current situation at the Ministry of Magic, Harry asked Lupin another question, and he said expectantly, "Remus, have you ever heard of a man named the Half-Blood Prince?"

"Half-breed what?" Lupin was a little distracted, thinking about what Evan had just said, about his relationship with Tonks.

"Prince. Harry said, watching closely for signs of him remembering.

"Sorcerers don't have princes. Lupin smiled and said, "Do you want to use this title? I thought the 'Savior Star' was enough." ”

"It's none of my business!" Harry protested, "The Half-Blood Prince is someone who used to be at Hogwarts, and I took the potions textbook he used, and he wrote spells all over it, and one of the spells he invented was an upside-down golden bell......"

"Oh, I have the impression that this spell was very popular when I was at Hogwarts. "There were a few months when I was in fifth grade, and there were people who were hung upside down in the air by their ankles, unable to move. ”

"My dad used it. Harry said, "What I saw in the meditation basin, he used it on Snape. ”

Lupin's smile contained too much understanding, and he looked at Harry forgivingly.

"Yes," he said, "Jaime used this spell in fifth year, the time you came to me and Sirius last semester using Floo Net, ......right?

"But it sounds like it was invented when you were in school. Harry insisted.

"Not necessarily, spells, like everything else, have times when they are popular and when they are not. He looked at Harry's face, as if guessing what he was thinking, and then said calmly, "Harry, Jaime is a pureblood, and I can assure you that you can always write to Sirius if you wish, Jaime never asked us to call him 'Prince', and we never called him that. ”

Harry gave up his cover-up and asked, "Isn't that Sirius not either?"

"Definitely not. "Sirius is also a pure-blood, and as for me, do you think I'll call myself a prince?"

"Oh!" Harry stared blankly at the fire, "I thought ...... He helped me a lot in Potions class, the prince. ”

"When was that book, Harry?" asked Lupin.

"I don't know, I've never looked it up. ”

"Maybe this will help you understand the time when the Prince was at Hogwarts. Lupin said.

Just then, Mrs. Weasley returned with eggnog, and she poured a large glass for one of them.

It was probably because of the faint alcohol in the eggnog, and everyone was excited after drinking it.

It didn't take long for Fleur to decide to imitate Cetina in singing "A Pot of Fiery Love".

It's incredible, she just kept muttering about this song that was really ugly, but she memorized the tune and lyrics, and sang it very well.

Elaine sang along with her, but she was just humming and didn't even remember the lyrics.

After humming, she excitedly asked Evan to sing......

Mrs. Weasley coughed heavily, and at the sight of her expression, everyone took it as a sign to go to bed.

Lupin took his leave, and Aven, Harry, and Ron climbed all the way to Ron's bedroom in the attic, where Hermione, Ginny, and Elaine slept in Ginny's room, Fred and George were in their own rooms, and Bill and Fleur were left alone in Percy's room.

Before getting married, Mrs. Weasley was adamant about not letting Fleur and Bill sleep together......

It's a bit crowded, but it's actually okay, everyone is used to it, and it's much more comfortable than Grimmauld Place.
