Hogwarts Gymnastics Professor

Chapter 131 Give Fudge the Platform

Fudge's order to release the innocent prisoners Stark and Giannis reached Azkaban, where Lockhart was giving them final training.

The wizard who came to pick up the two was already in place, and Lockhart said to Stark and Giannis with a sense of ceremony: "I wish you all the best in the Auror Department, cheers, sirs." Then he controlled the camera The ghost took the two out of the cell and handed them over to the Auror who came to pick them up.

Afterwards, Lockhart, Dobby, Ron, and Rita Skeeter gathered together and began to discuss how to take this opportunity to further launch public opinion and propaganda wars.

Lockhart was a full participant in organizing this matter, Dobby is the current de facto editor-in-chief of "The New Witcher", and Rita Skeeter is a senior reporter who is good at adapting news.

Ron is the head of the publicity campaign after Wood's departure when the Red Ghosts met last week. The Weasley family is the template for most families in the Ministry of Magic. Ron's psychological analysis has also convinced others.

Therefore, when this opportunity came, Lockhart immediately gathered the two and one elf.

Ron was the first to speak and said: "There is no doubt that this is a good opportunity for us. Before we tell the actions we have taken, we must analyze the logic of Fudge's behavior."

Everyone nodded and agreed. The idea that there is no right to speak without investigation has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the Red Ghost Society, so when Ron talked about analyzing the logic of Fudge's behavior, no one objected.

Ron looked around, Lockhart gave him an encouraging look, beckoning him to continue, Ron continued:
"I think that Fudge is now in a state of hope and fear balance, on the one hand, he has defeated his political opponents and is full of hope in his political career, and on the other hand, he is dreading the return of Voldemort, and the two form a kind of balance."

"So the first thing we're going to discuss now is whether to let Fudge break this balance."

When Ron said this, Lockhart said: "For this balance, my suggestion is to maintain Fudge's hope, to prevent Fudge from losing hope, and to prevent him from falling into fear and directly destroying it."

"Why, do we have to hold on to Fudge?" Ron asked.

Lockhart explained: "This is the plan we made before. An idiot like Fudge is hard to find in the world. Only when he is a minister can we have so many opportunities. If we change someone, we may not be so good at infiltrating and controlling the Ministry of Magic. "

"Okay—" Ron nodded a little speechlessly, and then continued:
"If we want to secure Fudge's seat, my suggestion for Fudge's attack on Barty Crouch Sr. in the Daily Prophet this time is for The New Wizard to fully follow up."

"How do you keep up with everything?" asked Dobby and Rita Skeeter, who were in charge of the implementation.

"There's only one key word—'expansion'!" Ron replied.

"Expansion?" Dobby repeated this somewhat familiar word, and then began to think about it. Rita Skeeter asked directly: "What about expansion?"

Ron said: "Expansion means that since Fudge has found old Barty Crouch, an enemy and a traitor, and took advantage of the opportunity to set up Jinyiwei, then we will use Jinyiwei to turn everyone into traitors."

"Everyone turned traitor? What do you mean?" Dobby asked.

"Jin Yiwei has already confirmed that they are all from us. Fudge has lost his judgment on who is trustworthy and who is not, so he can only trust Jin Yiwei. So what Fudge knows is up to us."

"Secondly, Fudge has fallen into the fear of other people robbing him of power, so we only need to set stricter standards and define all wizards who have the slightest suspicious behavior as traitors, then Fudge will take this opportunity to clean them up .”

"The magic world can't tell the difference between Fudge's personal actions and the Ministry of Magic's overall actions. In this way, what will happen to the ordinary wizards who are tossed by Fudge?" Ron suddenly asked.

"Will be angry!" This time, Dobby was almost guessing Ron's purpose.

"With oppression, there will be anger, and with anger, there will be resistance, and resistance is exactly what we need." Ron said.

Rita Skeeter asked: "But what does this have to do with our New Witcher?"

"Of course it matters." Dobby took up the topic and said, "We "New Wizard" can say what Fudge is inconvenient to say in the "Daily Prophet", and at the same time reinforce that this is the Ministry of Magic, not Fudge alone. As."

"That's right!" Lockhart took Dobby's words, "We control Fudge, and Fudge is the Minister of Magic, and then we can't say that we control the Ministry of Magic, but at least we can say that we control the external image of the Ministry of Magic." .”

"As long as we expose the true external image of the Ministry of Magic to everyone, then, naturally, some people will rise up and resist, and then it is time for us to step onto the front stage."

The previous discussion on the general direction was over, Lockhart sent Ron back, and discussed the specific implementation process with Dobby and Rita Skeeter.

Lockhart, who has not made a move for a long time, also prepared an article called "The Enemy is in the Ministry of Magic" for "The New Wizard", and the meaning of the article is very clear.

First, clarify the criminal and reactionary nature of Barty Crouch Sr.

Second, by finding a cockroach, it means that there is already a nest of cockroaches in the room, which vividly illustrates that a corrupt person like Barty Crouch old can sit in a high position in the Ministry of Magic, which means that the entire Ministry of Magic is corrupt.

Third, it directly stated that there are a group of people in the Ministry of Magic who are selling out the interests of all wizards.

Fourth, expand the group of people who betrayed the interests of wizards to the entire Ministry of Magic.

In short, it is the expanded set that Ron said, starting from a single person, to a chain of people, and then to the whole department.

After finishing writing, Lockhart handed over the article to Rita Skeeter.

Looking at the back of Rita Skeeter going to make the magazine, Lockhart knew that the Ministry of Magic, a giant in the wizarding world, was not far away from its collapse.

With an undercover agent like Wood and an idiot like Fudge inside, a sworn enemy like Hydra and rebels like the Red Ghost Society outside, it would be difficult for the Ministry of Magic not to fall.

It's just that Lockhart hasn't made up his mind yet, how the Ministry of Magic will fall, and what role should the Red Specter use to gain support to govern and reform the wizarding world?
