Hogwarts: I am Harry's Cousin

Chapter 236 234. Knocking on the Familiar Door

The members of the Wizengamot, counting the chief wizard, are exactly fifty in total. If new members want to join, they must wait for some of them to withdraw.

Dudley was lucky. After Dumbledore nominated him, a member of the Wizengamot 'just happened' to be found guilty of serious corruption and was removed from his position as a member of the Wizengamot. Li was lucky to be an alternate.

After a series of tedious reviews, it finally passed the review of the Order of Merlin, First Class.

Dumbledore briefly introduced Dudley's deeds, then cleared his throat to make an official announcement.

"It is hereby announced, by my Head Wizard of the Wizengamot, that Mr. Dudley Dursley has officially become a member of the Wizengamot."

This is the only power Dumbledore currently retains as Chief Wizard.

judge or declare

Sometime soon, maybe this time next year, even that power will be stolen by the Ministry of Magic.

The title of chief wizard of the Wizengamot will be completely useless, no difference from ordinary Wizengamot members.

No one wants an organization to restrain him.

It just so happened that Dumbledore completely delegated power again. Isn't this a great opportunity for God to seize power?

Just because Fudge is useless doesn't mean he's an idiot. No one would waste such a good opportunity. A few years ago, someone else would have made the Wizengamot a vassal of the Ministry of Magic.

There can only be one voice in the wizarding world, and only one voice is allowed.

Accompanied by Dumbledore's announcement, there was thunderous applause from the audience. It was unknown whether it was celebrating Dudley's joining or something else.

A dedicated waiter brought out his fuchsia robe, which Dudley readily accepted.

The whole process was very smooth, and it was not as described in many novels - a series of plots such as someone appearing to kill, slapping the face, beating the young one and turning the old one.

Even though Dumbledore's era has passed because of his indifference to world affairs, his prestige is still there, and no wizard will deny him face in person.

Unless someone from the top of the Ministry of Magic stood up.

"How does it feel to receive the Order of Merlin, First Class? There are only a few people in Europe who enjoy this honor."

Dumbledore asked Dudley afterwards.

"If I cared about such things I wouldn't mention Wizard Highmel's name, Professor Dumbledore."

Dudley was playing with the first-class Merlin Medal, a big '1' was written in red in the center of the gold body. To be honest, the material of the Merlin Medal was ordinary. It looked golden on the surface, but in fact it was just brass plating. Just a layer of gold.

The Merlin Medal is just a means, a kind of consolation to the deceased Highmel, and to spread this curse.

Werewolves are loyal allies of the Death Eaters and one of the biggest headaches for the Ministry of Magic.

Will the Aurors with the Rehumanization Curse attack the werewolves?

The answer is yes.

Letting the Ministry of Magic and the werewolf dog bite the dog to consume their power is the best and optimal choice at present. It can also win over some wizards who involuntarily turned into werewolves. With the restoration spell, they can also live a normal life.

"How does it feel different to join the Wizengamot?" Dumbledore asked again.

The Wizengamot is a combination of the wizarding court and the parliament. It has a lot of power but a high degree of freedom. Except for major matters, every member of the Wizengamot is eligible to be the presiding judge, even if it is a major matter. They are also judges.

Dudley spread his hands together: "It's no different from before, Professor."

A mere member was Dudley's first step.

Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction.

Neither arrogant nor impetuous, not dazzled by the so-called honor, not much less than the self who just graduated.

very perfect.

Dumbledore actually knew about some of Dudley's tricks, but he felt that there was nothing wrong with it, because he and that one had done it before.

As long as it doesn't go astray like Tom.

"Professor, how is the case between Mr. Mouse and Black going?"

Dudley asked Dumbledore on the way out of the Great Hall.

"The matter between Peter and Sirius is of great importance, and it involves the previous Minister of Magic. The result cannot be pronounced lightly. It will take many trials before the ruling can be made."

In fact, the so-called matter is just a word from Fudge. The case of Sirius is currently taken over by the Ministry of Magic. Only if the case of Sirius is dragged on long enough can the name of "the wise and mighty Minister Fudge" be known to everyone'.

Otherwise, it is just a piece of news, a daily prophet, the time is too short, and it will not be long before it will be forgotten by the wizards.

After all, Fudge really had nothing to brag about during his tenure, and it would be more in Fudge's interest to seize this point and blow it to the end.

"What? You want to get the result sooner?" Dumbledore asked curiously.

"No, I want him locked up for a while longer."

By the way, Dudley reminded Fudge just now, don't expect Fudge's brain to come up with these twists and turns, not only him, but also the group of Ministry of Magic officials around him.

Dudley's purpose was to keep Sirius 'closed' for a while longer.

This guy is so annoying.

It's best not to see him until the end of this year's term.

When Dumbledore was about to say something to Dudley, he was stopped by Greselda Marchban, Tiberus Ogden, and several other wizards who looked a little older.

"Dumbledore, it's hard to come here, don't you want to see some of our old friends?"

Dumbledore had a headache, he knew it would be like this when he came here, but he couldn't completely ignore this group of friends.

He could only look at Dudley helplessly, intending to use sending him back to Hogwarts as an excuse.

In the end, before Dumbledore could speak, Dudley took the first step and said decisively: "Professor, I don't think I'm a kid who can't even find my way back, and you don't have to worry, I also have a few friends in the Ministry of Magic." a friend."

This directly blocked Dumbledore's words.

A little helplessly said: "Yes, Fox is very close to you."

When they were leaving, the old wizards surrounded Dumbledore in several places around him, as if they were afraid that he would run away suddenly.

Watching Dumbledore leave, Dudley shook his head slightly. He didn't look for any friends from the Ministry of Magic as he said. At present, his seniors are just newcomers to the Ministry of Magic, and it is far from the time when the time is ripe.

he left the ministry of magic

In a hidden corner. Turned into another image, then made a phone call and called a car.

It's still the familiar suitcase, it's still the familiar street, it's still the familiar alley.

The trading place where he came to when he was aliased as Gargamel.

Putting the familiar brown top hat on his head, Dudley pushed open the car door and walked to the end of the alley with his suitcase.

Knocked on the familiar door.
