When Amosta spoke calmly about his intentions, the Weasleys' living room fell silent for a long time, Sirius with his mouth slightly open and his eyebrows furrowed, and from his stunned eyes, he seemed to think that Amosta was joking with him.

Remus, knowing that Amosta was clearly not going to show a sense of humor on such a serious matter, had a thoughtful glint in his eyes, trying to understand why Amosta had made such a ridiculous proposal.

"Go to the Auror office and become an Auror."

Sirius leaned back, his open mouth never closing,

"You mean, let me be Cornelius Fudge's subordinate?"

"Maybe you and Cornelius Fudge don't appreciate each other, but they don't have a grudge either, do they?"

Amosta said with a smile.

"That's not the problem, Amosta--"

Sirius rubbed his face a few times with his outstretched palm to make his head clearer, "You want me to be an Auror, to make a criminal who has been imprisoned in Azkaban for more than ten years an Auror who captures criminals, Amosta, what the hell do you think?" ”

"First of all, you've been proven innocent, Sirius, and your incarceration in Azkaban was just a mistake by the Ministry of Magic and the Wizengamot,"

Amosta's gaze on Sirius' face was incomparably deep,

"Secondly, I think this job is very suitable for your character, isn't it, exciting, full of danger, fighting evil, I'm sure you'll enjoy it."

"That's not the problem, Amosta-"

Remus finally offered his opinion,

"The Auror Office is the elite force of the Ministry of Magic. An acquaintance in the ministry learned that every Auror needs to go through a long and rigorous training and assessment before he can officially enter the position. Of course, Sirius won't be up to the task, but if he wants to skip those selection mechanisms and make Sirius an official Auror, I'm afraid even Albus can't do it. ”

"It's going to be hard under normal circumstances--" Amosta nodded, looking unmoved, "but luckily, I've just done the Ministry of Magic a great favor, and everyone from Cornelius Fudge to the directors of the departments can't wait to return the favor to me, and I think the Ministry of Magic will seriously consider it if Sirius brings my letter of recommendation, at least, more likely than if I offered to join the Ministry of Magic myself as an official in a department--"

Silence fell again, Sirius and Remus, one wondering if the Aurors were really the right fit for them, the other pondering the possibility that Amosta would be able to do so.

Call--

For a long time, Sirius and Remus breathed a sigh of relief, and it must be admitted that Amosta's seemingly ridiculous suggestion was actually somewhat reasonable after deep thought.

However, this did not mean that the two of them agreed to the proposal, and Remus stared deeply at the young but impressed face sitting opposite him, behind the curling green smoke, and asked his most worrying question directly,

"What are you going to do, Amosta, you want to send Sirius to the Auror office as a spy? Do you want to be the Minister of Magic? ”

Living in a magical world full of discrimination and targeting, Remus has a natural rejection and dislike for politicians, so he immediately becomes wary of the possible purpose behind Amosta's proposal.

"Heh, politics isn't such a joke thing, Remus, Fudge represents the interests of a group of people, and trying to kick him out of office is not something that can be done by sending a spy,"

Amosta smiled,

"And I don't want to be the Minister of Magic, because I don't want to spend the rest of my life thinking about and weighing the interests of all parties."

Amosta's gaze made Remus nod unconsciously, indeed, this is in line with Amosta's style.

"I must admit, being an Auror seems like a lot of fun--"

Sirius had a thoughtful expression,

"But what does that have to do with my purpose, I mean, I want to take care of Harry, and play a positive role in the fight against Voldemort, but when the Aurors don't seem to have anything to do with that?"

"This brings us to some of my judgments and thoughts--"

Amosta set aside the teacup and placed his fingers on the table, unable to read any thoughts in his deep gaze. Remus looked in a trance, and subconsciously straightened his posture.

"On the night of the World Cup final, when Chryona fled in front of me and the riots gradually subsided, Cornelius Fudge did not stay on the scene to direct the rescue or reassure the people, he returned to the Ministry of Magic as soon as possible, and urgently notified Headmaster Dumbledore to come and see him."

Amosta said in a calm tone,

"What do you think Fudge was thinking at the time?"

"What?" Sirius asked subconsciously.

"Fudge asked Dumbledore if there was any way to keep me at Hogwarts forever, he wanted Headmaster Dumbledore to be imprisoned at Hogwarts—"

"How dare he make such a request!"

Sirius's eyes widened, and he patted the seed angrily, and Remus also tensed his face, a sarcastic sneer on his lips.

"Oh, it's not surprising, the power I showed that night was completely beyond the control of the Ministry of Magic, Cornelius Fudge knew that he had no means to restrain someone like me, and he also expected that if I wanted to seize power, it would not be difficult to get him out of office, even if I could not become the Minister of Magic. So, even though the Ministry of Magic's credibility was on the verge of collapse at that time, he still guarded against me when he thought about it at the first time. He was wary of Albus Dumbledore, but he thought I seemed more dangerous than Dumbledore in comparison—"

Looking at the two of them listening attentively, Amosta continued,

"If in the future, the wizarding world is at war because of Voldemort's return, I don't think the Ministry of Magic can do anything but hold Dumbledore back under a narrow-minded minister like Cornelius Fudge. Headmaster Dumbledore knew this, but because of his 'noble qualities', he didn't want to interfere with the Ministry, and I hope that the Ministry will listen to some sane advice by then. ”

"You want me to go to the Aurors and have some say in the Auror office, do you, Amosta!"

Sirius blurted out.

"Exactly--" Amosta smiled again, "the Auror office is a critical department. ”

"Scrimgeour isn't going to give up his place easily, Amosta, and just making Sirius an Auror won't do much."

Remus, who has a calm trait, gets to the heart of the matter.

Rufus Scrimgeour is indeed not the one to wear the same pants as Amosta, and Amosta knows this very well.

"There's always a way."

The political struggle is the same in any world, and Amosta does not want to drag out his plan too early, but only vaguely.

After some explanation, Sirius understood Amosta's plan, but he still hesitated, to be honest, he never wanted to become an official of the Ministry of Magic like Arthur, and Amosta seemed to want him to become the head of the Auror Office, which was a major choice, even a decisive Sirius could not make up his mind for a while.

Amosta didn't force Sirius to agree immediately, and as Sirius fell into deep thought, he turned his gaze to Remus,

"About you, Remus, you wish to stay in Hogsmeade so that Harry can come to Harry's aid as soon as possible, but with all due respect, you don't need to do so, and if Harry encounters a danger that I and Headmaster Dumbledore didn't foresee, then you probably won't be able to help—"
