Chapter 678

After the dinner, the hall on the first floor of the tower.

"The handover has been successfully completed, and we have more control over the Ministry of Magic than any other minister in the previous thirty-two years, but Cornelius Fudge, who has always been more cooperative, what do you think is the best arrangement for him?"

Lunn's fingers tapped lightly on the table, "As the former minister, although he made a serious mistake because of the incident of the mysterious man, he also fully cooperated with us in the subsequent actions to appease his subordinates, and let him step down bare after all this will look too ugly for us, do you want to give him a division? At least let others know that our Harris is not a family that crossed the river and demolished bridges." ”

"Just let Connelly be an undersecretary. Owen Harris narrowed his eyes and said to his second son, "The actual authority of the director is greater, and it doesn't sound good to the deputy minister, anyway, Connelly is also old, and he will retire in a few years, so let him follow me, I think he will be satisfied with this position, and this will make us seem less threatening to the outside world, at least to ordinary wizards who don't know the doorways of the Ministry of Magic." ”

Lunn nodded, holding a quill, and quickly scribbled some drafts of the new person's arrangement on parchment.

When Lenn was working hard to write the book, Mr. Owen Harris was concerned about his youngest son's personal follow-up arrangements: "Alan, what are your plans for the future? Do you want to continue to teach at Hogwarts? Continue to study at Hogwarts, it doesn't mean much to you, why don't you just come to the Ministry of Magic directly? Hogwarts will take a long leave of absence and take the exam directly? Luna, do you and Hermione want to do this?"

"That's right, Alan, you can be the director of the Auror office, and you who drove Voldemort away will go to the Auror company, and I think there is no reason for that annoying Scrimgeour to stay in his position. Penelope's eyes lit up, and he used his wit as a student at Ravenclaw College to make a high-sounding suggestion full of selfish desires.

"I'm sorry Penelope, father. But I have to keep going back to Hogwarts, and I promised Helga and, well, Hufflepuff and Gryffindor, that I'm going to bring the school back to normal, and I'm going to do a pedagogical overhaul at Hogwarts. And going into politics directly at the Ministry of Magic doesn't help us much Harris, we're already in control of the Ministry. Alan placed the teacup in his hand on the table, his arms resting on the armrests of his chair, and his hands crossed over his chest, "And house life is an indispensable and precious part of our wizards' lives, and I think there are a lot of wizards who are willing to pay a lot of money to go back to their student days at Hogwarts and embark on that little train to this dream country when school starts." ”

Hermione was a little worried when she heard Owen's proposal just now, although she also thought that she couldn't learn anything in school, but with the increase in grades and the control of the intensive class, unlike the situation in the lower grades, she didn't want to end her school career just like this, she didn't prefer to follow the steps she had planned before than to suddenly change her plans because of impromptu reasons, and she also planned to finish her studies at Hogwarts as usual first.

"But that could lead to a conflict with Dumbledore in advance. Lunn, who was writing, raised his head and was a little worried: "Dumbledore has contacted us in the past few days, trying to talk to you or my father, but at that time, my father was busy with the handover of the Ministry of Magic, and Alan you stayed in the inquiry room every day, so my father postponed the time of the conversation to the back, and the question that Dumbledore wanted to talk to you seems to be the reason for teaching as a headmaster." ”

"Allen's previous course was opened with the permission of the Ministry of Magic and the consent of the school trustees, and Dumbledore cannot simply cancel the course even though he is currently reinstated as headmaster. Owen patted Lunn on the shoulder and comforted him, then turned his head to Alan and said, "I didn't see him before except because of the Ministry of Magic because I didn't know what you meant, but given our current attitude towards other native families, if they get in touch with Dumbledore, with the shares of the school directors and the power of the headmaster, they can take the legal route with the shares of the school board and the power of the headmaster, even if Lunn is in charge of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, it can be delayed for most of the semester, Alan, what do you think?"

"Don't worry, father, Lunn. As I told you before, Godric Gryffindor had previously transferred his authority as the founder to me, and if Headmaster Dumbledore really tried to manipulate Hogwarts in order to stick to what he thought was the right way to educate him, I would have removed his privileges. The law and the so-called shares of those school directors could not help Dumbledore, this made Hogwarts fundamentally reject or even hostile him, and if those school directors did not know what to do, their descendants would have to go to Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in France..."Alan didn't care too much about this news, and in the conversation with Dumbledore before he fell into the veil, the other party proposed this conversation, and Alan had no intention of compromising at that time, let alone now.

Albert, who had been silent, couldn't help but worry about his brother and wanted to say something at this time, and then his fiancée Fleur pulled him and signaled him not to talk much, but Albert just shook Fleur's hand and shook his head and comforted softly: "Don't worry dear, our family doesn't have so many rules like other families, isn't it clear that you've been here for so long?", after speaking, Albert turned to face his youngest brother: "Alan, but if the conflict between you and Dumbledore escalates... You know, he's the greatest white wizard in the world right now, he once defeated Mr. Grindelwald in a duel, and he protected Harry while facing the mysterious man and his men alone when he was in the fourth year of the Goblet of Fire..."

"Albert is right, Alan, we'd better not take such risks, or Mommy will worry about you..." Tonks told me that Moody had been preaching all over the bar lately that you didn't chase Voldemort away by himself during the War at the Ministry of Magic, although Dumbledore later asked the other Order of the Phoenix members to watch him and not allow him to talk nonsense, but it is estimated that some Aurors and those Death Eaters with hidden faces standing behind them are also spreading... And Luna's true identity has also been mentioned, and many people have heard Hermione's conversation with her at the arch, but now there are too many rumors, and basically everyone thinks it is nonsense when they hear the news..."

Hermione felt that the relationship between Harris and Dumbledore should not have taken such a turn for the worse and be so hostile, and she couldn't help but worry about Alan because of Albert and Daisy's words: "Alan, there is something wrong with the teaching at Hogwarts, but don't we have a valid reason? We can try to convince Dumbledore that he should be held responsible in this matter, but we don't have to be so drastic... You don't have to take risks yourself, we can find a safer way..."

"You're still so naïve, Dumbledore obviously won't listen. Penelope, who knew that there was not just a conflict of educational philosophies behind this, obviously scoffed at Hermione, "If he doesn't do it, we can't do it, if he really contacts the school director, the law will be on Dumbledore's side, but if he does... We're going to make Dumbledore a criminal again, do we need to talk to a criminal one-on-one with him?"

Alan waited quietly for everyone to finish, he took another sip of black tea, and then waved his hand and said to his family with a relaxed face: "I don't think you can understand how much I have grown in ancient times, in short, Voldemort and Dumbledore are not my opponents In fact, even if you don't count me, Luna can do this kind of thing." ”

"What?!Alan, are you sure... That's Dumbledley... Xenophilius, who had just joined the tower, had not spoken before, and when he heard Alan say that Dumbledore, whom he had always supported and trusted, was not his opponent, he reflexively wanted to refute and disbelieve, but then remembered his daughter Luna and her identity made him realize that he was on the wrong side in this sentence, and it seemed that he couldn't beat it, so it was a little abnormal...

Xenophilius stared at Hermione and Penelope again with dissatisfaction, he didn't expect Alan to shoot at his daughter so quickly, and he didn't understand the relationship between them as much as he did today, and the change of identity made his attitude change, if it weren't for his baby daughter who emphasized to him a few times and told him not to talk too much about this matter, he would definitely have to find Harris to make a good deal with each other about this matter And now, Xenophilius plans to talk to his daughter again in private to persuade her to change her mind, even if he now knows that his daughter is so much older than himself, but the sense of responsibility as a father has not disappeared, he can't let Alan Hu come because of his daughter's temperament.

"If that's the case, Alan, you should go back to Hogwarts!But Alan, don't kick Dumbledore out right away, just let those school directors ally with him!" Owen Harris was silent for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "Don't worry, let go of your hands and feet to carry out your reforms... By the way, the Ministry of Magic has won another first-class Merlin medal for you, and Hermione and Penelope have also won a second-class medal for you each because of the role played by your Animagus in the previous Ministry of Magic war, so that Alan, you and Penelope's medals will be issued by me in the Ministry of Magic, and Hermione's at that time will be arranged at Hogwarts, and you as a professor at Hogwarts will issue it to Hermione. ”

"When the Ministry of Magic presented the awards, we arranged for a few reporters to ask a few questions, and we solved those rumors by the way. Alan nodded and understood what his father meant, and then he turned to Xenophilius: "Now that we're done talking about business, Mr. Lovegood, about the TV station... Hmm, Mr. Lovegood..."

"Alan, do you need the TV station for anything? Just tell me, I'll come down and arrange it..."Fleur saw that the crazy Xenophilius was still lost in her own contemplation, so she responded to Alan in place of the seemingly unreliable TV director.

"Oh, that's right, I think the TV station can show some Muggle movies in prime time these nights, and it's been a bit of a loss of freshness for the audience to broadcast the news and Quidditch and stuff like that, we should be showing some pure entertainment so that the audience can get some relaxation in this stressful and tense atmosphere..."Allen made a suggestion with a pretending inadvertent suggestion, and added after taking another sip of tea: " I've been in Muggle schools before, and some of the things that Muggles call sci-fi are still quite interesting, but remember to state that the content was made up by Muggles, and that Muggles added stunts... It should be said that it is an illusion of Muggles, otherwise it is easy to cause misunderstanding..."

"Okay, no problem, I'll write an application to your mother's management department to ask for permission to go through the form, then I'll postpone the broadcast of the Quidditch match video at 8 p.m., so that the duration of our TV show can be extended..."

Seeing that the conversation was over, Hermione also chimed in, "Speaking of Quidditch, do you know that the new Seeker of the Montrose Magpies is Cedric Diggory, a Hufflepuff graduate. Professor McGonagall is an avid supporter of the Montrose Magpies, and I've heard her ask Akihari when he's going to get a starting spot. ”

"Tonks is also a supporter of him, just because Cedric is a Hufflepuff graduate, and she has often bragged to me about Cedric during this time, saying that he learned to use the "Wulangon" shape flight in an upside-down starfish state..."Daisy herself has been on the Quidditch team before and has always been interested in the game, but unlike her best friend Tonks, she is a supporter of the Appleby Arrows.

Emily, who had been deliberately not participating in adult conversations, couldn't help but add: "But Cedric is so handsome..."

Seeing that there was no serious business, Owen asked Lunn to write it down in a notepad, and then looked at Luna apologetically: "I'm sorry, Luna, Xenophilius, because I didn't know what you meant before, I didn't let Fleur play your part too, and I couldn't get a medal for you...... I don't know if you have any other requirements from Luna, in fact, if you are not in a hurry, I will be able to operate another one for you in a while, you know, Cornelius Fudge forcibly issued himself a Merlin Medal of the First Class by means......"

"Oh, don't worry I don't need this. Luna tilted her head to look at Owen, who asked her, and then suddenly said, "Let Alan and I go to the Department of Mysteries to work part-time and become silent." ”
