Chapter 403: Resign!

Office of the Minister of Magic.

Dumbledore seemed to have fulfilled his wish, and walked back to his desk with a relaxed expression.

Inside the office, the walls are covered with photographs.

It is a photograph of the previous ministers of the Ministry of Magic.

In addition to these photos, photos of the Headmasters of Hogwarts have been added.

Because Dumbledore has been with them for decades, there are some things that he will always communicate with them. So when he came to the minister's office, he hung their pictures on the wall.

In one of the picture frames, inside is an energetic old man dressed in purple aristocratic clothes, with white eyebrows and white beard, laughing without any image.

He laughed breathlessly, and his beard trembled: "Albus, you Ministry of Magic still have such people? Could it be that the members of the Ministry of Magic are all at this level now? ”

"Blake, shut up!" a witch yelled angrily.

She was Atemethea Lufkin, the first female minister of the Ministry of Magic, and it was through her that the Department of International Magical Cooperation was created.

The person she called Black was Phineas Nigelus Black.

That is, Sirius Black's great-great-grandfather, who enrolled at Hogwarts in 1858.

The former Headmaster of Hogwarts is also considered to be the most irresponsible Headmaster of all time.

He once used Gareon to smash out a Merlin Medal of the First Class.

"Am I wrong, Lufkin?" said Phineas Nigelus Blake, with a look of disdain.

"You've been here longer, and you'll know exactly what Umbridge is. ”

Atemethea Lufkin's lips trembled twice, but she couldn't say anything to refute it.

Phineas Nigelus Black laughed and said: "I really haven't seen such a strange person as Umbridge, even if he is incapable, the key is that he is still so ignorant that he took the initiative to give the knife to others and put it on his neck." ”

"Albus, it seems that your usual image of a good person is really useful, and even the old woman who looks like a toad is willing to believe you. ”

Dumbledore was not at all surprised that his idea of fighting himself was revealed.

What he would do is clear at a glance from the dozens of photos hanging on the wall.

Did you really put Umbridge at Hogwarts to be a senior inquisitor?

What else could that old woman do besides make Hogwarts a miasma?

Dumbledore had only one idea, and that was to get Umbridge out of his position as Deputy Minister for Magic.

Although Dumbledore had long been unpleasant to Umbridge, she was the nominal second-in-command of the Ministry of Magic.

It is impossible for Dumbledore to remove a wizard from the Ministry of Magic who holds such an important position without a reason, unless she makes a very, very serious mistake, such as being Voldemort's dogleg and betraying the wizarding world, which is obviously impossible, how long has Voldemort been cold, she can't catch this good opportunity.

Therefore, in the past six months, the power in her hands has been slowly divided.

But today, Umbridge's little caution gave Dumbledore a good excuse.

Dumbledore only "gave a little touch", and Umbridge took the initiative to put the rope around his neck.

As for his promise to secure Umbridge, I'm sorry, no one said that Dumbledore couldn't deceive the second person.

Besides, Umbridge is not a good person, and over the years, he has helped the former Minister of Magic, Furge, to handle official business, and Dumbledore has dealt with Umbridge a lot.

Dumbledore had long been disgusted by this domineering, self-righteous, unreasonable, controlling, and vindictive old woman.

Once she was pitted, Dumbledore would not have felt a little guilty.

Dumbledore was in a good mood, and he opened a drawer, and a dozen button-sized badges were scattered around the corner, with different letters printed on them.

He made a discernment, took out one, and tapped his fingers twice.

The badge buzzed and vibrated and gradually became searing.

Dumbledore said to the badge, "Attention Ministers, at eight o'clock in the evening, a meeting will be held in Conference Room 1 to elect a new deputy minister for magic. ”

Badges came out dozens of crisp "received" one after another.

Dumbledore tapped twice, and the badge fell silent.

"What a handy stuff. Dumbledore spun the badge around in his hand.

"I just don't know how Harry came up with such a strange name: all the members of Ait. Dumbledore wondered.

It was something Harry had given him to use to contact others, and it was invented by Harry and Hermione.

It will be available for sale in the Wizard's Supermarket for a while, and according to him, this is only version 1.0, as a badge can only be used for a specific group of contacts.

Later, you can implement a badge with multiple group functions.

In this way, the two wizards each hold a badge, and even if they are on opposite ends of the earth, they can connect without delay.

"When the time comes, I'm afraid that the phone used by wizards to communicate will gradually be eliminated, let alone owl messengers. Dumbledore sighed, "Harry has a point, it's the most valuable thing about magic to change your life. ”

......

Department of International Magical Cooperation.

After the realignment, Lucius Malfoy was the head of the department.

He's really good at dealing with people from all sides.

Hearing what Dumbledore said, Lucius Malfoy's face changed in bewilderment.

"What do you mean, isn't it the old woman from Umbridge, what is Dumbledore thinking?, or is there going to be another Deputy Minister?" Lucius Malfoy frowned for a moment, then relaxed.

"Anyway, I don't need to figure out what Dumbledore has in mind. Since this is going to happen, then I will seize the opportunity and fight for it. Lucius Malfoy stood up and prepared to visit some of the ministers with whom he had been close and asked them to cast their votes when they nominated in the evening.

......

Organization Department of the Ministry of Magic.

This department is arguably the most powerful department in the Ministry of Magic outside of Dumbledore.

Because it controls the assessment, appointment, and dispatch of all personnel of the Ministry of Magic.

At that time, many people wanted to get in, but unexpectedly, Dumbledore actually let Arthur Weasley, who had worked in the Office for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Objects for more than a decade, take the position.

But the strange thing is that after everyone looked at each other, they all accepted this result.

This is because most of the people in the Ministry of Magic have a lot of respect for Arthur, including the directors of the various departments, such as Ludo Bagman, Barty Crouch, and Amelia Bones.

Many wizards in the Ministry of Magic knew him and would naturally chat with him, and his good old personality was very popular in the Ministry.

So in the end, everyone found that Arthur Weasley was the most suitable person. The first is that he has no background and is not involved with other families, and the second is that everyone has known Arthur for many years, knows his character, and believes that he will handle things fairly.

At this time, Arthur Weasley was also confused as to what was going on.

"Dangdang......" came to mind when there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in. Arthur Weasley came back to his senses.

As soon as he saw the pink figure coming in, Arthur Weasley immediately felt uncomfortable.

If you talk about the list of wizards he hates the most in the Ministry of Magic, Lucius Malfoy will be ranked second, and the first place is the person in front of him, Umbridge.

And since he became the head of the organization department, Lucius Malfoy has been much more honest, although when he meets him, he still has a mocking face.

"Minister Umbridge, is there anything wrong with you?" said Arthur Weasley.

"I'm here to handle the resignation process. Umbridge snorted coldly and said.

"Okay!" Arthur Weasley jumped to his feet, as if there was a fire under his ass.

Umbridge welcomed Arthur Weasley's warmest reception.
