Chapter 111: The Reason
Two young wizards are attacked by an unforgivable spell.
This time, the voice of accusation has doubled exponentially.
The angry parents took all their anger out on the Ministry of Magic.
And all of this will ultimately fall on Fudge, the minister.
In fact, anyone with even the slightest political sensitivity can see the clue in the sudden turn of the Daily Prophet.
It's clear that the financiers behind the scenes have given up on Fudge.
That's why he was pulled out to carry the pot.
Even, in this grand feast of falling stones, they are the hardest batch.
Originally, everyone was still speculating whether Fudge would be able to finish the year, but now it seems that it will be difficult to finish the month.
He's really just a janitor for the Ministry of Magic now. Just like Johnson...
True Gatekeeper.
Just wait for the internal power game to elect a new minister.
At that point, it's time for Fudge to get out.
...
"Oh! Look, Fudge resigned! β
The time has come, the middle of February.
It's been almost two weeks since the Philosopher's Stone incident.
At noon on Friday, everyone gathered in the auditorium for lunch. Suddenly, a flock of owls flew in, they dropped their cargo and waved their wings away, and Seamus subscribed to the Daily Prophet.
Neville happened to see the front page of the newspaper and said with a little surprise.
"It's long overdue to resign." Seamus on the side said indignantly.
After a series of newspaper propaganda these days, Fudge's personal prestige has hit rock bottom.
The decision to remove Headmaster Dumbledore from his position was also considered illegal by most wizards.
The school board was also greasy, and seeing that Fudge was about to step down, they immediately kicked Lucius out and pressed all the previous decision-making mistakes on his head.
He shamelessly stated that Dumbledore was the sole and legitimate Headmaster of Hogwarts, and no one had the right to deprive him of his position. Balabala's.
It's just a shamelessness carved into the bones.
"The professor is here."
"It's Professor Dumbledore."
"Professor..."
Just as everyone was about to spit out the fragrant fudge.
Outside the courtyard, the old headmaster walked over.
He walked straight to the Gryffindor bench and sat down next to Harry Ron.
The surrounding wizards immediately began to discuss in a whisper.
This wasn't the first time the headmaster had approached the four of them.
About everything that happened in the basement room on the fourth floor of the castle. The little wizards didn't know, they just knew that it was dangerous.
Even people died.
The horrific scene had a serious psychological impact on Harry.
The Headmaster even postponed the most important Quidditch match against Gryffindor for their sake by a dozen days, and it will only restart this Saturday.
By that time, Mrs. Hooch had also returned, and it was no longer possible for Snape to referee.
But...
Psychological wounds are not so easy to heal.
The twins are okay, they have only been controlled by the Imperius Curse for a long time, and their heads are a little confused, and they have recovered after these days.
But Harry β Ron β Hermione.
They didn't recover so easily.
It is always said that Gryffindor is a group of reckless people, who are not afraid of heaven and earth, but in fact, they are only eleven or twelve year olds.
Not to mention them, even Anthony, an adult soul, after seeing it with his own eyes, digging out his heart and lungs. I couldn't sleep for a few nights.
His memories seemed to be out of his control, and the more he controlled himself from thinking about those horrible, bloody images, the more those popped up in his mind.
That's not to mention Harry.
Come to think of it, they will only get worse.
"Kids!"
Dumbledore patted Harry and Ron on the shoulders beside him and said with a smile.
Including Professor McGonagall, this is the fourth time they have talked to the young wizards back and forth in the past few days.
Several professors had serious disagreements when dealing with the matter. Several professors, led by Snape, insisted that the memories of the young wizards should be erased.
They are still too young, and such horrific memories will only affect their physical and mental health.
However, Dumbledore was very much against such behavior.
He thinks...
It is suffering that creates strong qualities, and if these children can come out of the shadow of death, they will definitely make great achievements in the future.
And...
Harry...
As one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, he will face death at some point in the future.
Maybe that's a good thing?
"Professor."
This is Anthony, who put down the knife and fork in his hand, and suddenly asked, "The Philosopher's Stone, was it snatched by that witch?" β
"I think so."
"That's... Will she live long? β
"Well-I think you're mistaken about Anthony, having the Philosopher's Stone doesn't mean that you can make an elixir, although the Philosopher's Stone is the most important material for this potion, its recipe is still quite troublesome."
"I guess she should use the huge magic power of the Philosopher's Stone for other evil plans, and she probably doesn't need the elixir." Dumbledore picked up a piece of bread from the corner of the table, took a bite, and continued, "I assume she must have left England. β
"Huh?"
"Investigators from the Ministry of Magic, in collaboration with the Indonesian Ministry of Magic, have been investigating for several months, and finally found a lot of information about her origin." Dumbledore said lightly.
"Her mother was a wizard and her father was a Muggle. One is engaged in maritime trade. β
When she was eight years old, the ship sailed to a South African port and was unexpectedly involved in a vampire attack. Her parents died on the spot to protect her, and she herself was bitten by a vampire. β
"But Professor, vampire, don't you attack wizards and Muggles? They get their magic from the blood of magical beasts, so why risk attacking wizarding Muggles? Anthony asked, confused.
Harry on the side looked up and listened carefully.
After allβQuirrell had already spoken, and everyone had heard it.
"It's a mystery indeed, but, according to the entry files of the South African Ministry of Magic, the vampire who attacked their home was an Englishman."
"British?"
"Uh... That's why she will. Anthony opened his mouth and said rather speechlessly.
FK
What is it called?
The predecessors dug the pit, and the later generations took the blame?
Also, that vampire, is he cerebral palsy? - You said that you killed other people's parents, and you were kicked in the head by a donkey?
I don't know, did this directly create a protagonist template enemy?
Or is he just pretending to be forced?
"I think so. Now the culprit is not in the UK, so she should have left the UK as well. Dumbledore sighed, and in the dark, the words that Cangshui said before leaving rang in his ears.
When you have the power to change the world, but you remain silent, you stand with those oppressors. β
Ms. Geselda Macchiban is right.
The wizarding world has shown no signs of getting better for decades.
Maybe he was wrong, he shouldn't have been hiding in this castle, wouldn't it be better if he tried to govern the wizarding world of England like Grindelwald?
After thinking about this, the old headmaster suddenly talked about something else: "Oh! By the way, Anthony, there should be a new one in your movie! β
Hearing this, Anthony was stunned for a moment, amused by the headmaster's blunt method of changing the subject, and then he nodded.
He probably hasn't screened a few films yet, and with so many things happening recently, the twins are in no mood to make money.
Those films are still eating ashes under his bed!
"Gryffindor doesn't seem to have classes in the afternoon." Dumbledore, slowly getting up, blue eyes staring straight at him, hinted.
"Okay, Professor!"
Anthony nodded, he understood what the professor meant.
During this healing time, it's time for them to relax.
Since that's the case, he won't fix those horror and sci-fi movies.
This is the time for comedy.
Last year's "Home Alone" was very good...
