Chapter 34: An Interview with Rita Skeeter
The so-called transfer to Durmstrang was just a joke that Rove teased the former Death Eater, but he didn't expect Karkaroff to refuse without even thinking about it. Heck
This can't fix Rove, he is an excellent student who abides by the school rules and never causes trouble, and he will be disliked?
Is there any heavenly reason?!
It's no wonder that Durmstrang ranks last in the school of magic and wizardry, and high-quality students don't know how to cherish it, it's really muddy that can't support the wall!
Rove suddenly lost interest in continuing to communicate with Karkaroff and began to sit in his chair and shut himself up, and at this time the meeting began.
As the president, Dumbledore, sitting in the first seat, his voice was not hurried, and he said in a deep voice:
"Not long ago, a terrorist attack was carried out by an organization called the Saints, who tried to sink the floating dragon boat, which caused the death of the representatives of various countries, but fortunately they were stopped by Mr. Rove Scamander and there were no casualties......
Everyone's eyes were focused on Rove, and the young man nodded to everyone without changing his face. Heck
Not to mention anything else, it's just that this calmness without stage fright has made many officials secretly admire.
The young and handsome face, placed in a group of adult wizards, whether greasy or old, stood out even more, making the eyes of many witches light up, and they silently felt in their hearts, not knowing which lucky girl would be cheaper in the future.
Dumbledore quickly explained the whole thing briefly, and the more detailed investigation report was already in the hands of every wizard, and everyone quickly flipped through it.
"In this floating dragon boat attack, there is human and material evidence, and the crime is beyond doubt." Dumbledore looked up at the crowd and said loudly:
"Now we need to discuss what to do with the organization of saints."
"Of course we want to exterminate!" The representative of France, Bosten, said indignantly:
"This kind of terrorist organization must be suppressed at all times, and it will not work if it is not suppressed...... Think about it, you took your pet civet and rode in a floating dragon boat to attend the International Federation of Wizards convention, and suddenly you were attacked by the saints! Heck
So, a day without a terrorist organization is a good day!"
Many people echoed the words, they were all victims of the floating dragon boat, and they shared the same hatred as never before.
But there are also many people who have a worried face.
One of them, an old man with sparse gray hair, wrinkled corners of his eyes, and loose skin on his chin, worried:
"The tattoos on the saints' chests, that's the symbol of Grindelwald, could they have something to do with Grindelwald?"
"That's right, I've seen that symbol in Durmstrang, and I heard it was painted by Grindelwald." Another burly wizard said.
Originally from Finland, he was wrapped in a white bearskin, and his thick beard was like a blanket, covering his cheeks to his chest, and it was impossible to tell which was the beard and which was the chest hair. Heck
When it comes to Grindelwald and the Umnos, everyone talks about it, and they are very afraid in their words, and they are worried that the Saints are the resurrection of the Umno Party.
"This has nothing to do with Grindelwald." Dumbledore was convinced, "I went to Newmengard to ask him, and he knew about it."
Hearing the president say this, many people breathed a sigh of relief, they were really afraid of Grindelwald, even if he had been imprisoned in Newmontard for half a century.
Since it has nothing to do with Grindelwald, everyone has demanded severe punishment.
But who to send becomes a serious question.
The International Wizarding Federation is a powerful organization that governs all ministries of magic, and naturally has an Auror-like wizarding army called ...... International Rangers.
However, the members of the International Rangers are all elite Aurors from the Ministries of Magic of various countries. Heck
And the world is too big, too many people are needed, and the personnel of the International Rangers have not been enough.
Now to exterminate such an organization as the Saints, it is necessary to re-recruit the Aurors from the Ministries of Magic...... No one wants to be out.
After all, an excellent official Auror requires a lot of time and energy to cultivate, and his own country is not enough, so how can he be willing to give it to the International Federation of Wizards.
"We can't give more manpower
Yes, this matter is your European business, Europeans manage Europeans, what does it have to do with us in Africa!"
Said a dark-skinned wizard with dreadlocks and a robe made of bird feathers.
"That's right, you European wizards start wizarding wars, and every time you use our African wizards as cannon fodder." Another bald man sneered.
"I care more about magical creatures such as fire dragons and thunderbirds that appear at the scene of the crime than the so-called saint organization." Heck
A Swedish witch screamed:
"Mr. Scamander is apparently suspected of raising fire dragons without permission and other crimes."
Rove was reprimanded, and he had to get up and explain:
"Lady Greta, any Scamander is in desperate need, and magical beasts will fly, and I have a special connection with those powerful birds, not to raise them."
Greta looked incredulous, and sneered:
"Thunderbirds, who live in Arizona, USA, can they cross the Pacific Ocean and fly over France so quickly in that emergency?
You're just as dishonest as your grandfather, Newt Scamander!" Heck
"Greta, is this the time to discuss this?" Minister Claire spoke for Rov:
"Rove saved the Floating Dragon Ship and is a hero of the wizarding world...... You can't treat him like a prisoner, watch your words."
"I know what I say," Greta scoffed, "just take care of yourself, I'm not a wizard who likes to be taught."
For a while, the whole conference hall was noisy, everyone was fighting separately, and some people threw their shoes out.
Rove sat in his chair and sighed, this position of president of the International Federation of Wizards is really not something that anyone can do.
But this is none of the business, after answering his own questions, he began to be a wood carving, and there he was distracted in a grand manner.
If it weren't for the noise in the hall, he would have taken out his summer homework and continued to write. Heck
Before he knew it, the meeting had been going on for nearly an hour, and Dumbledore glanced at the table on the table, where the topics were already almost finished.
He said tiredly, "That's all for today's deliberations, thank you for your hard work."
But everyone didn't leave, but the quarrel became more intense, and some people even wanted to do it.
Rove, who had been bored throughout the meeting, had a numb butt, and he was finally pardoned, and hurried out to the bathroom.
Rove walked in, gently pulled his pants open, and after a few moments, the cubicle behind him creaked open.
The young man thought it was other wizards who went to the toilet, so he didn't care, but he didn't know that the other party came over, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said with a smile in a coquettish and soft voice:
"Mr. Scamander, my name is Rita Skeeter, can I do a little interview with you here?" Heck
「……」
