Professor of Gemology at Hogwarts

Chapter 43 Lucius’ Confrontation 2

Ginny Weasley looked in surprise at the black diary in Dumbledore's hand that she had lost on the first day of school.

"You mean... the mysterious man?" Fudge wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "There can't be a mysterious man - don't be joking, don't be joking... he... he has..."

Then he seemed to think of something and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay... okay... I misunderstood. What you just said was caused by this diary." He smiled awkwardly. "There are too many dark magic items left behind. The Ministry of Magic needs to search carefully." OK……"

Dumbledore: "Even if the culprit this time is the diary, Voldemort will still come back one day."

"No, no... you may be too nervous, Dumbledore. This diary is just an item that has been cast by dark magic by a mysterious person. It has been caused by dark magic."

"Okay, then we can talk about the details, if you want to know."

Seeing Neville's pale face, Dumbledore asked Gray to tell him about Neville's experience and the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets.

"Using diaries to control students... an ingenious plan," Dumbledore said calmly, "if it weren't for this dedicated professor - Gray."

Lucius Malfoy glared at Gray with a stern look, but Dumbledore saw it.

"If he hadn't discovered that there was something wrong with this diary - Neville Longbottom might have taken the blame. No one has a way to prove that it didn't act according to his own will..." Dumbledore glanced at Lu meaningfully. Hughes Malfoy.

"So that's it... Now that the matter has been resolved, it's good." Fudge wasn't listening to the whole story. In his eyes, as long as the murderer was found - that is, the diary.

"So this dark magic diary controls a student's will. How did it get into the hands of the student?" Gray looked at Lucius Malfoy and said, "Isn't Mr. Malfoy curious?"

Gray guessed that Lucius Malfoy would definitely say he was not interested and leave unwillingly after learning about this, but he did not expect that he would say something else instead.

"I..." Lucius Malfoy forced a smile and said, "Of course I'm curious!"

"The matter has been resolved now, hasn't it? The diary has been found and the basilisk has been killed." Fudge said in a brisk tone, "It has been resolved. I don't think Dumbledore will leave his job. Once everything is back up and running, I will take care of it." It was announced. Yes, I'm glad it was resolved and it's over."

"Not yet, it's over with Fudge." Lucius Malfoy glanced sideways at Ginny Weasley who was hiding behind McGonagall.

"I think it is necessary to investigate this matter thoroughly. How did a dangerous black magic item flow into the school and be picked up by the students? Since you just investigated the diary here, can I assume that Wei is present? Is the little girl from the Sly family also involved in this matter?"

"No...no...not me." Ginny Weasley stammered. "I don't know anything..."

"Let me guess whether you brought the diary into school and then passed it on to someone else or put the blame on someone else?" Lucius Malfoy said reluctantly.

"It sounds like she is just a student, how could she do something like that?" Mag was so angry that she spoke loudly.

"Is not it?"

"Why are you so sure? Mr. Malfoy," Gray said. "We didn't say that the diary came from Miss Weasley, but you act like you know everything."

"I didn't do anything! Professor! Please believe me!" Ginny Weasley looked at Gray. "I don't know what it does. I don't know where it comes from." It used to be in my book, but I didn't know it was black magic, and I had never been exposed to it, and I didn't even know where it went. Professor Morris knew that I lost it when I started school. I really I don’t know anything…”

The more she spoke, the more panicked she became, and she burst into tears as she spoke.

"Yes, there is the Weasley family, one of the pure-blood wizarding families. Akari said to find out the source of dark magic items, but behind the scenes, they use dark magic to do things that harm Muggles. One thing in front of the other and another behind the back. I really didn't see it. Come out," Lucius Malfoy sneered.

"I don't think Ginny Weasley could do such a thing." Gray said. "If people find out that Arthur Weasley's biological daughter is planning others to attack and murder Muggle-born people, it will be very difficult for Weasley." It is conceivable what impact Mr. Lay and his "Muggle Protection Act" will have. If all these actions are detrimental to oneself... On the other hand, if this matter is found out, who will benefit the most? "

Dobby, who was huddled behind Lucius Malfoy, looked up and saw Gray pointing first at the diary and then at Lucius. Malfoy then beat his head desperately.

"Oh, well... that's it." Fudge said. "As Minister of Magic, I will talk to Arthur. But the most important thing now is that we took action and the murderer was found. That's it." "

"You can't think it has anything to do with Weasley, can you?" Lucius Malfoy said.

"The question is, are there any casualties now? The students who were attacked will be cured later, and everything will end happily, right? Lucius and I will talk to Arthur...but that will happen later."

Lucius Malfoy forced a smile and his face seemed to be covered with a mask. "Then I hope you can talk to him in depth. It is even necessary to consider dismissing him. Weasley is completely derelict in his duty." .”

"So there's Hagrid..." said Dumbledore.

"He will be released and I will write back to inform him about this." Fudge said, "At that time, the Ministry of Magic had to be prepared just in case, you know... But now the problem has been solved and he is innocent." "

Lucius Malfoy snorted coldly, turned around, opened the door, and prepared to leave the office. Fudge followed closely behind.

"Mr. Malfoy." Gray called him.

Lucius Malfoy turned around and gave him a cold look, "What else do you want to say?"
