Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Chapter 203 Fudge’s words

What happens when a person doesn’t get feedback?

Answer: Hands are shaking.

Aoluo and the others were silent, watching helplessly as the tall and thin young wizard opposite the golden magic circle raised his hands to conjure three ships, and then rode away on the waves, but none of them had the courage to release even a single spell. .After the group of guys disappeared, I felt that my body was almost soaked with cold sweat.

"What should we do, Director Scrimgeour?" An Aoluo asked after seeing the golden magic circle disappear, but he didn't realize that his voice was trembling.

"What should I do! Damn it! Go back!" Scrimgeour got angry for no reason, cursed a few times, and then asked everyone to leave.Before leaving, he looked at the group of dementors gathering in the sky in the distance and felt agitated again.

Such a big thing happening in Azkaban must not be hidden, and Scrimgeour knew this very well.But he will not take responsibility for this matter. According to the process, he made no mistakes at all. He just didn't expect that the enemy was too cruel and powerful.

Back at the Ministry of Magic, Scrimgeour sent Auroras away and went directly to Fudge's office and told him everything that happened in Azkaban.Hearing this, Fudge was very angry. He banged the table vigorously, but he didn't know what he was mumbling. It was definitely not a good thing.

"What are we going to do, Minister?" Percy, as the assistant to the Minister, looked even more panicked than Fudge. As soon as Scrimgeour finished speaking, he asked aloud.

"How to do it? You ask me what to do?" Fudge picked up a book on the table and threw it at Percy. Percy reacted quickly and dodged with a tilt of his head.The book hit the wall and hit a lamp as it fell.

After smashing something, Fudge vented his anger a little.He leaned on the table and slumped down on the chair, touched two handfuls of hair, and his mind was spinning rapidly.

"We can't hide the past, but we choose how to tell the people." Fudge had a plan, waved his hand to Percy, and said, "Percy, you go contact the reporters and say that I want to hold a press conference... Also, find the photos of those guys who escaped from prison, and give them to those blood-sucking guys together..."

"Is there a list of escapees already, Scrimgeour?"

"Already." Scrimgeour nodded.

"Very good!" Fudge clapped his hands and pointed at Percy and said, "Just find photos of those people and hand them to the reporters after the press conference."

After a pause, he suddenly remembered something and asked again: "You just said that the leader is a Hogwarts student who defected during the Triwizard Tournament. His name is Ayton? Amy?"

"Ike, Mr. Minister." Percy reminded from the side.

"Yes, Ike, that's him! Tell reporters to put his photo in the most obvious place!" Fudge suddenly seemed a little excited. He stood up and walked two steps in the office. As he walked, he said, "A self-willed person." The fallen genius wizard chose to join the darkness because of the poor teaching at Hogwarts..."

"He is very ambitious... yes, very ambitious, so in order to achieve his ulterior evil purpose, he led the dark wizard and the evil werewolf to attack Azkaban and rescue the imprisoned Death Eaters..."

"Then...let me think..."

"The heroic Auroras of the Ministry of Magic rushed to the scene as soon as possible to prevent the gaffe from spreading further?" Fudge suddenly applauded himself, "That's it! That's right!"

After saying that, he looked at Scrimgeour, his eyes becoming sharp: "That's what happened, Scrimgeour."

"Yes, it is exactly what the minister said." Scrimgeour looked serious and nodded solemnly.

"That's no problem!" Fudge's mood improved and he shouted to Percy again, "What are you still doing here? Go find those reporters quickly, I have a press conference to hold..."

The next morning, when the owl delivered the new issue of the Daily Prophet to those who subscribed to it, the entire magical world was in an uproar.It is no exaggeration to say that compared to this incident, Sirius's prison break last year was nothing at all.

"My God! Is this true!"

"Did he really do that?"

The long table of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Slytherin was in an uproar, and everyone was talking loudly.In contrast, the long table in Ravenclaw was completely silent.Some freshmen who had just started studying for the first half of the year still didn't understand, and when they were about to speak, they were stopped by the seniors.

"That person... is taboo now, understand? If anything happens, we can talk about it back to the common room."

The little wizard nodded ignorantly. No matter how ignorant they were, they could still see that the faces of the seniors were very ugly.

Breakfast was destined not to be enjoyable. After a while, the long Ravenclaw table was empty, and the eaglets left directly.This scene did not attract the attention of people from other colleges, or in other words, they noticed it but ignored it.

Those who are sensible feel that now is the time when others are suffering, so they should not add insult to injury; those who want to cause trouble feel that it would be a waste to do something so fun now, and the future is long and there are still many opportunities.But in general, people who purely discuss matters still make up the majority.

Such as Harry and Ron.

Harry, who had already learned Occlumency from Snape, was still in his infancy, and Snape could still invade his brain at will and peek into the unbearable memories in his mind.But at the same time, he could still see through the snake's perspective from time to time. Just like last night, he saw Voldemort laughing heartily and patting Ike on the shoulder happily.

Originally, Harry didn't know why this scene happened, but now he knew after reading the newspaper, and it was obvious that what the newspaper said was not correct.

Harry had no intention of telling the truth, knowing full well that no one would believe him.Before Ike's incident, he and Dumbledore were the most written about in newspapers. He was portrayed as a villain who lied in order to get more attention, and the latter was simply an old fool.

"The Ministry of Magic is obviously trying hard to hide the truth. What new Dark Lord? Voldemort is still alive!" Ron whispered.

"No one believed what we said, they all thought I was a liar." Harry replied, looking at Hermione sitting opposite him inadvertently, and was stunned.

After poking Ron, who was still mumbling, and pouting in Hermione's direction, the two of them stopped, feeling a little weird in their hearts.From the beginning of the summer vacation until now, they have tried their best to avoid mentioning Ike's name in front of Hermione. The few times they accidentally mentioned it, it was obvious that Hermione was trying to control her emotions.

But now, even the slow ones could see that Hermione's reaction was abnormal.

She is so calm!

His eyes were empty, as if his soul was gone.That feeling felt inexplicably familiar to Harry, and it took him a long time to realize it.

Hermione's current state is almost exactly the same as Snape's!
