Chapter 212: Stubbornness (2)
Dumbledore was still very calm, holding a wand like a finger bone, and his hands were casually folded in front of him, looking harmless to humans and animals, but Fudge felt a chill down his spine inexplicably.
Only then did he remember that the white-bearded old man in front of him had personally defeated the first Dark Lord Grindelwald fifty years ago, and was the greatest white wizard of the century.
Fudge looked at Kingsley and the man with the short gray hair, who had brought Aoro, and now was the time for them to step up.
"Don't be stupid, Delix." Dumbledore looked at the man with the short gray hair and said, "I'm sure you're a great Oro, but if you want to arrest me, I'm not going to do it." ”
"Are you going to arrest you, Dumbledore?" Fudge sneered, "You're going to deal with Shaker, Delix, Weasley, me, and Dolores alone?" ”
"Of course he's not alone!" Professor McGonagall drew her wand and stood in front of Dumbledore, Harry and Hermione stood in front of her, but Marietta quietly ducked aside.
"Enough, Minerva, Hogwarts needs you." Dumbledore said, "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" ”
"Do it!" Fudge shouted and drew his wand, then slammed it, "Petrified!" ”
"Boom!"
There was a loud bang, and then a blinding white light flashed, and Harry narrowed his eyes unconsciously, and it took a long time to recover, mixed with the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground and a scream or two. When his eyesight recovered, he saw that Fudge and the others were lying on the ground motionless.
"Passed out." Dumbledore said, "You're all right. ”
"It's fine." Professor McGonagall's eyes were red, and the blinding white light had apparently affected her.
"I'm sorry, I started a little harder, but that's all I could have just done." Dumbledore smiled, "It's been a long time since I've done it, and I'm a little rusty." ”
"What's next, Dumbledore?" Professor McGonagall asked.
"Obviously, I'm going to be away for a while."
"Where are you going? Grimmauld Place? ”
"No, I wouldn't have run that far." Dumbledore said, "I'll have to get ready to come back and clean up the mess for Fudge." ”
As if joking, Dumbledore winked at Professor McGonagall, then looked at Harry and Hermione, his face suddenly becoming serious.
"Listen Harry, it's important that you do your best to learn Occlumency, learn it as soon as possible." Dumbledore's tone was a little eager, "Exactly as Professor Snape said, give it your all, so that you can protect your brain before you go to bed and no more nightmares." ”
"Professor, you know everything?" Harry was a little ashamed.
"Yes, I know......" Dumbledore patted Harry on the shoulder, then looked at Hermione in a much more serious tone, "Miss Granger, do you know the consequences of your doing this?" Applying that level of curse to a student was seen by the people of the Ministry of Magic. ”
"I know that, Professor." Hermione, who had been silent for a long time, was very calm, and looked directly into Dumbledore's scrutinizing gaze.
"Have you really figured it out, it's dangerous with your identity."
"I'm ready, Professor."
"Wait, what consequences? What dangers? Harry was confused, and his instincts told him that Hermione was going to do something very dangerous, "Hermione, what are you going to do?" ”
Hermione didn't speak, but Dumbledore grabbed Harry's arm tightly, "Okay, time is running out, they'll wake up soon......"
"You have to remember my words, Occlumency, you must learn it, as soon as possible!"
As soon as the words fell, Fudge and the others let out a moan, struggling to get up. But then, they saw Dumbledore raise his hands high, and a red figure appeared in his palm, and after the blinding red light, there was still Dumbledore in the room.
"Where is he? Where did he go? The red light dazzled Fudge's eyes again, and he shouted, waving his hands to grab something.
"I don't know......" Kingsley seemed to be badly wounded, sat on the ground and shook his head, and then fell down again.
"Stairs! I'll check it out! "Dlux was also dizzy, but he still tried to run out, but he didn't have to run two steps before he fell.
"Alright, no need! Weasley, help me! Fudge shouted angrily, sat back in his chair with Percy's support, rubbed his head and gritted his teeth, "Phoenix! Hum! He's phantasmaged! ”
"Minister......" Umbridge was only recovering slightly, her face pale, and she stood next to Fudge. As soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Fudge: "Alright, Dolores...... That's not the end of it, Professor McGonagall, Dumbledore is done! ”
"Maybe." Professor McGonagall grimaced, shielding Harry and Hermione from behind.
Fudge snorted coldly, glanced at the little witch with a calm face, and said, "Granger, I now think that the evaluation of your character and learning is completely wrong, what you have done is simply outrageous!" ”
"You've been stripped of the use of the Time Converter, forever!"
"Venting your anger on a student is not what a Minister of Magic should do, Connelly." Fudge's approach couldn't even stand the portraits of the principals on the wall, and he directly made sarcastic remarks.
"Shut up!" Fudge's face turned blue, and he stood up abruptly, glaring at the portrait who was speaking, and said to Professor McGonagall, "Do you think he's done with his escape?" ”
"In fact, it was he who left." Professor McGonagall replied faintly, "You didn't catch him. ”
"Humph!" Fudge was so angry that he flicked his robe and turned away, staring back at Professor McGonagall without taking two steps, but without saying a word, he turned and left.
After Fudge and the others had left, Professor McGonagall put away the seriousness and coldness on her face, and let out a long sigh of relief, a little tired.
"Alright, go back and rest, Potter and Granger, there's too much to do tonight."
"Yes, Professor McGonagall."
Harry had yet to ask something, but Professor McGonagall waved his hand, so he had to give up. Hermione and Hermione left the principal's office and walked in the direction of the Gryffindor common room.
On the way, Hermione still looked very calm, but Harry stopped talking, very entangled.
"Ask whatever you want, Harry." Hermione said.
"What did you mean ...... Dumbledore to tell you?" Harry still struggled. What are you doing? ”
"It's nothing, it's just the things we've been doing, aren't those dangerous?" Hermione turned her head to look at Harry, a smile spreading across her lips, "Order of the Phoenix, Mystery's plans, those nightmares of yours, what did we do that wasn't dangerous?" ”
"Really...... Wrong! Harry suddenly came to his senses and grabbed Hermione, "Are you going...... Looking for him? ”
"Who?" Hermione's face was full of confusion, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"Looking for Ai ......" Harry stopped halfway through his words, several thoughts flashed through his mind, and the words changed again, "No...... It's nothing. ”
"Let's go, let's go back."
