Chapter 91: The Aftermath (Part II)

"But isn't that a deception? Caught someone else on an errand? ”

Harry said that he and Ron had been sleepless all night, both feeling like they were involved in a big event in the wizarding world.

"Harry, there is no way to do it in the Ministry, there are owls all over Europe sending letters asking the Minister about the Dark Mark, English wizards are panicking, and there are even cases of blackmail and theft disguised as Death Eaters. Therefore, in the current complex situation, the Ministry of Magic can only choose to prioritize the maintenance of social stability. ”

Mr. Weasley yawned, "Lucius Malfoy, that bastard, he was known to be a Death Eater when he hung out with the Mystery, but he escaped the Ministry of Magic afterwards on the grounds that he was under the Imperius Curse, but he was startled when the Dark Mark appeared yesterday - that old boy's face was as white as if he was dead, hahahahaha." ”

Ron asked, puzzled, "Malfoy is so bad, why is he scared when he sees the Dark Mark?" Isn't he a Death Eater? ”

"Think about it, Ron," said Mr. Weasley, "After the Mystics lost power, Lucius made up all sorts of lies to escape their imprisonment in Azkaban, that the Mysteries had forced them to kill and torture others. I bet he's more scared than the rest of us to see him back. After the fall of the mysterious man, he denied that he had anything to do with him, and lived a normal life again...... I don't think the Mysteries, or the Mysteries, would not be very happy with someone like Lucius, you say? ”

"So, the Dark Mark was actually released by another Death Eater remnant?" Harry asked.

"I think so, the only ones who escaped punishment were pure-blood wizard nobles like Lucius, who were reserved in front of the mysteries, and some lunatics who were completely loyal to the mysteries, although most of these lunatics were imprisoned in Azkaban, but I think there were occasionally one or two that slipped through the net, and this time the Dark Mark should be the handiwork of that kind of madman, but he must be very dangerous and cunning, the scene is very clean and there are no traces, and it will be difficult for the ministry to catch him for a while. In order to stabilize the public sentiment, the only choice is to arrest some dark wizards first - those people deserve it anyway. ”

"That still sounds like some truth." Percy Weasley nodded in affirmation, "After all, the Ministry of Magic's job is to maintain a balance between the wizarding and Muggle worlds. ”

"But it's lying......"

Harry also tried to argue with his case.

"Harry, in fact, many wizards also know that this is a fool of people from the Ministry of Magic, and the Ministry doesn't even let us keep it a secret, so I will tell you." Mr. Weasley said, "A lot of times, people just need to take a reassuring pill, and the Dark Mark has too much psychological shadow on wizards. Therefore, the minister and several directors unanimously agreed to Professor Luo Cheng's proposal, and planned to use a few wanted dark wizards to deal with the pressure of public opinion, and then secretly let the Aurors search for and capture the wizard who released the black magic mark. ”

"Honey, you shouldn't talk so much to the kids, they're still kids."

Mrs. Weasley walked over with a look of disgust and brought Mr. Weasley a plate of goodies.

"I just don't think there's anything wrong with letting them know the truth sooner, after all, wizards can't just live in the Daily Prophet's ......"
