Hogwarts Gymnastics Professor

Chapter 49 Fudge and Malfoy
Lockhart suspected that Snape had done it on purpose, and he had the best reasons for doing so.

First, Peter Pettigrew betrayed Lily, and he wanted to kill the betrayer who betrayed Lily with his own hands.

Second, if Pettigrew is killed, no one will be able to prove that Sirius is innocent, so Sirius will either be imprisoned back to Azkaban, or he will have to live incognito.His distaste for Sirius had been around for a long time since he was a student, no less than that of James Potter.

Third, Peter Pettigrew saw Dumbledore's trust in him. If Pettigrew didn't die and met Voldemort again and told Voldemort everything, Voldemort would definitely suspect him as a double agent.

Killing Peter Pettigrew immediately on the spot was a good thing for Snape.

Lockhart asked Snape loudly, Snape turned his head away from looking at Lockhart, and didn't speak.

Sirius let go of Harry and got between Lockhart and Snape. He said to Lockhart, "Don't ask any more, Lockhart. I'd rather believe that he lost his temper temporarily out of anger. reason."

Lockhart understood what Sirius meant, and he didn't want to accuse Snape without proof.After all, that's how he was imprisoned in Azkaban.

Lockhart stopped asking. So far, he is very satisfied with the development of the situation, and there is no need for further incidents.

Just when Lockhart thought that the matter of Sirius was about to end so satisfactorily, a portrait on Dumbledore's desk made a sound.

"Albus, Fudge has brought Lucius Malfoy to the corridor of the principal's office, I think you need to prepare. Also, Sirius, as your great-great-grandfather, I must say, you shame me."

After finishing speaking, within a few seconds, there was a knock on the door of the office.

Lockhart didn't want to cause trouble, he gave Dumbledore a wink, and then turned into a kitten again, Sirius turned back into a big dog when he saw this, and walked up to Harry, Lockhart jumped to his dog's head.

Peter Pettigrew was turned back into a mouse by Dumbledore, and Sirius took him in his mouth.

Dumbledore opened the door of the office with a wave, and Lockhart saw the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, three acquaintances, Umbridge the pink toad and Lucius Malfoy, walking in first.

Behind him were two wizards standing on both sides of the office door like guards. Both of them looked tall and strong, one with a straight cropped hair and the other a bald black man, whom Lockhart didn't recognize.

"Dumbledore, Sirius, the murderer who betrayed the Potters, escaped from Azkaban. The Ministry of Magic has sent almost all the Aurors and dementors to search for him. Dumbledore, we need yours now." Cooperate."

After entering the door, Fudge shouted anxiously at Dumbledore before he even had time to see who was around.

Dumbledore asked: "Connelly, how do you want me to cooperate? I thought that according to the usual process, you would write a letter first and then come to visit."

"Albus, I want you to let dementors into Hogwarts, guard all the entrances, and then periodically patrol around the school to search for Sirius Black."

Then, as if he had just seen Harry on the side, he lowered his head and said to him, "Harry, I am Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic."

Then he straightened his waist and said righteously: "Maybe you don't know who Sirius Black is, but you just need to remember that the Ministry of Magic will protect every law-abiding wizard. Don't worry, Mr. Potter. We won't let you get hurt."

Lockhart on the side was about to laugh out loud, Sirius yelped at Fudge's big head, which startled him a lot, and Lockhart couldn't stop laughing and meowing.

After listening to Fudge's request, Dumbledore thought for a while and said, "Sorry, Connelly, I think dementors are also a very dangerous creature, and he will interfere with the normal teaching activities of Hogwarts, so I Reject this request from the Ministry of Magic."

Umbridge stood up and showed Dumbledore a piece of parchment and said, "Dumbledore, I regret to inform you that according to the "No. Part of Gwartz's authority."

Then she stared at Dumbledore with a mixture of defiance and complacency.

Dumbledore looked at the parchment and said, "Education Order No. 22? When did the Ministry of Magic have this education order? I remember that any education order needs to be voted by Hogwarts school representatives."

"The school board has just elected me as a representative, and I have already voted for it." Lucius Malfoy said to Dumbledore lightly while stroking his cane.

Lockhart was impressed by the high efficiency of the Ministry of Magic's politicians in political struggles.

From the time I escaped with Sirius to the present, it took only five or six hours to complete the calculations. The Ministry of Magic, a group of politicians who are usually as efficient as sloths, passed so many decrees.

Lockhart even suspected that they got on the bus first and then made up the fare, and held a meeting to vote to pass the decree while acting.

As soon as I heard that Sirius escaped from prison, I immediately thought of Harry Potter, immediately thought of Hogwarts, immediately thought of Dumbledore, immediately thought of his prestige, and immediately thought of weakening his power.Only at this level can the imagination and execution of Ministry of Magic politicians leap forward so quickly.

"What do you want me for, Lucius?" said Dumbledore.His words remained polite, but Lockhart could already see two rages starting to burn in his blue eyes.

"Things are terrible," Lucius Malfoy said lazily, taking out a long roll of parchment. Signed it.

We feel I am afraid you are not using your talents.How many dangerous professors have you found so far?It was last year, and it is again this year.

If things go on like this, I'm afraid you'll end up with werewolves, giants, or even centaurs as professors. We all know these creatures are unreliable. It's a shame to have them join the professor team at Hogwarts , but also extremely dangerous. "

Professor McGonagall, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly said: "How many people did you threaten and blackmail before forcing them to agree, eh, Malfoy?"

"Gryffindor's bad temper will make you suffer, Professor McGonagall." Malfoy said, "I want to give you a piece of advice. Dumbledore is the headmaster, but he stepped down anyway, and you are just the vice headmaster."

"Calm down, Minerva," said Dumbledore sternly.He looked at Lucius Malfoy. "If the board wants me to go, Lucius, of course I will give up my seat."

Dumbledore's piercing blue eyes remained fixed on Lucius' cold gray eyes.

"However," Dumbledore said very slowly and clearly, so that everyone present could catch his every word.

"I've only really left this school when everyone here has betrayed me. You'll also find that at Hogwarts, help is always given to those who ask for it."

Lockhart clearly felt that Dumbledore's eyes glanced at the kitten and dog that he and Sirius had conjured up.
