Hogwarts Gymnastics Professor

Chapter 168 Fudge Nobody Believes
Fudge felt as if he was living in a dream. The first minute he was held hostage by Voldemort himself, and the next second all the Death Eaters disappeared, as if they had never appeared before.

Fudge didn't know what to say at all. He had lied to everyone countless times before, but now when it came time to tell the truth, he suddenly felt a little regretful.

"The mysterious man led a large group of people to invade the Ministry of Magic just now, kidnapped me, and then left before you came back." Fudge could only simply state the facts of what happened just now.

Fudge's description doesn't go anywhere, and Lockhart's Voldemort and his Death Eaters do nothing but kidnap Fudge for over an hour and make him beg for mercy, not even a single piece of paper.

"My lord, I want to confirm with you!" Kingsley said, "You mean, the mysterious man invaded the Ministry of Magic with a large group of Death Eaters and controlled you?"

"Yes!" Fudge could only say in a very certain tone.

"This happened just now, not 20 years ago?" Kingsley asked Fudge in a tone like you're not kidding me.

"Just now!" said Fudge.

"You-Know-Who led a large group of Death Eaters into the Ministry of Magic and did nothing but kidnap you for an hour? My Minister, do you know how many things Voldemort wants in the Ministry of Magic?"

"My Minister, do you know how many Aurors we would have sacrificed if Voldemort had ambushed the Ministry of Magic? My Minister, do you know how much trouble we would have had if they had you under the Imperius Curse?"

Kingsley said in an unbelievable tone. After finishing speaking, he seemed to have reacted. He said to an Auror beside him: "Check the minister's mental state and see if he has been hit by the Imperius Curse!"

An Auror came out, pointed his wand at Fudge's head and inspected it for a while amidst Fudge's objections, and said, "Report Captain, everything is normal, and there is no trace of the Imperius Curse?"

Kingsley was still a little worried, and continued to ask: "Then is there any sign of brain damage?"

"Neither!"

Kingsley offered to check Fudge's memory, but Fudge refused. In his opinion, there were too many shady things about his memory, and he must not expose too much because of it.

Therefore, Fudge simply used his authority as a minister, and he insisted that more than half of the Aurors must be left to defend the Ministry of Magic, lest the mysterious man and his Death Eaters attack again.

Kingsley couldn't understand Fudge's thoughts, but his own will was useless, because apart from a few cronies around him, the Auror team was all Fudge's people.

In the next few days, Kingsley still led some Aurors outside to investigate what happened on the night of the large-scale appearance of the "Dark Mark", while Fudge himself was the protector of more than half of the Aurors brought by Wood.

The "Daily Prophet" on the morning of June [-] first refuted the rumors, claiming that "Death Eaters do not exist, and the mysterious man has no sign of returning. The Minister personally inspected the scene and found that there were only a few young people playing pranks. "

Immediately afterwards, a few minutes later, there was an extra newspaper, claiming that "Minister Fudge sent a letter for help from within the Ministry of Magic, saying that he had been kidnapped and attacked by mysterious people and Death Eaters."

Immediately afterwards, at noon, the "Daily Prophet" once again claimed that "the Ministry of Magic has no signs of mysterious people and Death Eaters, and the Minister has not been kidnapped."

The same piece of news was reversed three times in one day, and the trust of everyone in the magic world in the "Daily Prophet", an official newspaper with a background, once again decreased.

"If the mysterious man had mastered the "Daily Prophet", we would not have heard of his defeat until now" has become a popular joke in the wizarding world these days.

The mysterious man came to the Ministry of Magic, the mysterious man kidnapped Minister Fudge, and the mysterious man slipped away.

Somehow, what Fudge only said in front of Kingsley and the Aurors he led got out. People naturally didn't believe it, but they still found a reason for joking about it.

The mysterious man discovered that only by keeping Fudge as the minister can he act better. A minister Fudge is more effective to the mysterious man than a hundred Death Eaters.

People joked about Fudge's claim that he had been attacked, because it all seemed so illogical to everyone.

Even the version that Fudge himself originally said in the Daily Prophet that "a few youths pranked and launched a large number of Dark Marks in the sky" is not quite reasonable as he later said that he was kidnapped by a mysterious person.

The Second Ministry of Magic led by Barty Crouch Sr. also took this opportunity to bombard the Ministry of Magic, Fudge himself and the group with fancy public opinion and propaganda.

Then, a week passed like this.

A team of Aurors, his cronies who had been closely protecting Fudge, couldn't stand Fudge's recent chatter, and even Umbridge couldn't figure out what Fudge was doing.

Umbridge has repeatedly hinted at Fudge to clarify what happened behind the scenes, Fudge can only continue to say that his Ministry of Magic was invaded by mysterious people with Death Eaters, they kidnapped him, and then left without doing anything experience.

Finally, voices against Fudge also appeared in the ranks of his cronies, at first a little bit, and then a lot, Fudge could only reduce the number of people who protected him.

Then, that night, in his office, Fudge is again kidnapped by Lockhart's Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

They didn't control Fudge's mouth, and let Fudge scream for help until the Aurors arrived, and Lockhart was leading everyone away using the house-elf's Apparation form magic.

Several Aurors rushed in one after another, followed by their Captain Wood, Deputy Minister Umbridge, and Auror Captain Kingsley.

Fudge talked about being kidnapped again. This time, no one believed him. Only Kingsley asked a few Aurors to check the anti-apparition device of the Ministry of Magic. After confirming that there was no problem, he again left.

Somehow word got around that Secretary Fudge claimed he had been attacked and kidnapped again by You-Know-Who and a large army of Death Eaters and escaped unscathed.

This time the waves were much smaller, the Daily Prophet didn't report directly, and people didn't make jokes about it much, as if Fudge and You-Know-Who were insignificant little characters.

Only the Second Ministry of Magic led by Barty Crouch Sr. still spared no effort to criticize Fudge and his gang.
