Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard
Chapter 893: Advance Newspaper, Kyle's Countermeasures
The next day, the sun was shining brightly and the morning breeze felt cool on the body, a little chilly but very comfortable.
Kyle arrived at the Ministry of Magic early in the morning, walked through the empty main hall, took the elevator to the second floor, and pushed open the door of the Auror's office with ease.
Scrimgeour was sitting there, looking tired. He didn't look like he had just arrived, but rather like he had been busy all night and hadn't gone home yet.
"Another action?" Kyle asked casually.
"It's the same thing as before," Scrimgeour said. "Why are you here? What's the matter? If you want to see Chris, he hasn't come back yet."
"No, I'm just here to wait for the goblin."
"Goblins?" Scrimgeour paused. "Can they send Galleons here today?"
Although he also wanted to get the money as soon as possible, he also knew that nearly 40,000 Galleons was not a small amount.
The agreement was reached just yesterday, and it was delivered this morning... Even when Malfoy donated 5,000 Galleons to the Ministry of Magic, he was not so efficient.
"I think it should work," Kyle said, fiddling with the giant spyglass in his office.
Scrimgeour frowned, but did not stop him.
Because of what happened yesterday, his attitude towards Kyle can be said to be quite tolerant. It's just a real mirror. Although it is important, it won't break even if it is touched.
As time passed, more and more people came into the office. All of them seemed to be in a hurry. They came quickly, reported their work in brief words, and then left quickly.
Kyle sat nearby during this time.
When the Aurors reported on their work, sometimes he could hear them and sometimes he couldn't.
It should be that Scrimgeour used magic like the Mute Charm, which was quite cautious.
However, Kyle was not interested in these. In order to avoid misunderstanding, he took the initiative to get up and go to Mr. Weasley's office not far away.
The Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office is also on this floor.
When Kyle knocked on the door and walked in, Mr. Weasley was talking to Chris.
"Dad?" Kyle was a little surprised, "When did you come back?"
"Just now, a minute ago I met Arthur in the main hall." Chris was also surprised to see Kyle here, "What are you doing here?"
"Wait for the goblin," Kyle said.
"Fairy?" Chris was confused as to what had happened. Fortunately, Mr. Weasley quickly told him what had happened.
"Again, the fire dragon, or the Ukrainian iron belly?" Chris rubbed his forehead helplessly.
In order to appease the black dragons in the Hexagonal Islands, he has slept less than three hours in the past few days. If possible, he really doesn't want to deal with fire dragons anymore.
But the destructive power of an adult Ironbelly that has suffered so much is much greater than that of a black dragon, so we cannot just ignore it.
"Okay, Arthur, it looks like we'll have to go for a drink next time." Chris took a deep breath, turned around and was about to walk out.
"Wait." Kyle stopped him, "Don't worry, Dad. The dragon has already left England."
"How do you know?" Chris asked.
"The Fire Dragon Sanctuary told me," Kyle said, "I wrote to them yesterday afternoon, and they have agreed to take over the Ukrainian Iron Belly.
"The letter I received not long ago said that they would bring the dragon back to Romania from the Pyrenees."
"The Pyrenees..." Mr. Weasley smacked his lips. "It went to France?"
"Obviously." Kyle shrugged.
Iron Belly was chasing Oren, but probably lost him halfway and flew all the way to France.
After all, the fire dragon had stayed in the dark underground vault for so long that its eyes had long since degenerated and it could no longer identify directions, so it had to rely on its sense of where to fly.
"OK then."
After hearing that the dragon had left Britain, Chris was no longer in a hurry to run away. This was no longer under his jurisdiction. If he went there rashly, even if he was helping, the French Ministry of Magic would probably not be happy.
Mr. Weasley then told him again what happened yesterday. When he heard that Kyle encountered a Death Eater disguised as a goblin in Gringotts, he didn't react at all and didn't look worried at all.
He's used to it now.
They were just Death Eaters. It would be strange if Kyle didn't meet them one day.
Moreover, compared with the trace in the Hebrides that almost runs through the islands, these are just minor incidents and there is no need to worry about them at all.
Until Mr. Weasley told him that Kyle got 30,000 Galleons in compensation from the goblins.
Chris's eyes twitched and he looked at Kyle with disbelief.
Would those goblins who are so greedy that they haggle over every Knut be willing to pay 30,000 Galleons as compensation to the Ministry of Magic?
Is he crazy or is the goblin crazy?
"it is true……"
"boom!"
Before Mr. Weasley could finish his words, he heard a knock on the door next door.
Kyle ran over first, followed closely by Mr. Weasley.
Chris hadn't reacted yet, but when he saw everyone in the office leaving, he followed them out.
As soon as he reached the corridor, Kyle heard Bogrod's angry voice.
"Didn't we agree on this yesterday... What does this mean... Where is the integrity of you wizards!"
There was a tremor in his voice, as if he was too angry.
In the Auror's office, after the goblin broke in, he threw the newspaper he was holding onto the table.
From the look of it, it seemed that it wanted to flick it at Scrimgeour's face at first, but the instinct for survival made its hand turn away halfway.
This is……
Scrimgeour glanced down at the newspaper subconsciously, then frowned deeply.
[Self-directed and self-acted, Gringotts may become the private vault of a mysterious person]
Just by looking at the title, Scrimgeour understood why the goblin was so angry.
"Shocking news! Gringotts, which has always been known to be impenetrable, was robbed. Although the goblins tried their best to hide the news, I, the righteous and brave Rita Skeeter, still got the first-hand information..."
The article was very long and filled up the entire front page, leaving no space for advertisements in the corners.
Moreover, this article considerately marks out some key points in bold font to facilitate everyone's reading.
"I find it hard to believe how a wizard could turn into a goblin and not be discovered. This excuse is the most shameless one I have ever heard. I would rather believe that this is a collaboration between Gringotts and the Death Eaters."
……
"An innocent and excellent wizard was dragged into this conspiracy and helped Gringotts drive out the Death Eaters, but he was almost slandered as the culprit. I don't understand what the goblins are trying to do. Is it because they have displeased their new masters?"
……
"Whether the goblins have surrendered to the You-Know-Who is beyond question, but Gringotts is no longer that reliable. It might be better to hide Galleon under the floor of your home."
……
Well, how should I put it? It’s a standard Rita Skeeter style. The whole report is full of personal speculation and hearsay. If he were a goblin, he would definitely be angry.
Especially the last sentence, which was equivalent to suggesting that people take out the property in the vault... This was also what Gringotts could not tolerate the most.
No wonder Bogrod was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly just now.
But Scrimgeour had no idea what was going on either.
This is indeed the Daily Prophet, but it is very strange.
The layout is a bit strange. It's fine if the entire front page of the newspaper is about the Gringotts incident, but it's not right if the second and third pages are all about the Gringotts incident.
Even if Gringotts was blown up by You-Know-Who, it wouldn't take up an entire issue of the newspaper.
Besides, the timing was wrong.
The new issue of the newspaper is published at eight o'clock, which means that after eight o'clock, the owls responsible for delivering newspapers will set out from the newspaper office.
But now...
Scrimgeour glanced at the time.
There is still half an hour until eight o'clock. No one should be able to get the new issue of the newspaper at this time.
And from Bogrod's description, they had already finished reading the newspaper, so they had obviously received it earlier.
Scrimgeour's expression kept changing, and after a moment he closed the newspaper. He did not tell Bogrod about his discovery, but frowned slightly.
Now the focus of the Ministry is on fighting against You-Know-Who and the Death Eaters, and the Muggle Artifacts Department is being abused, so it has almost no say.
If he had not insisted on staying in his original position, the department would have been temporarily closed when Dumbledore announced that the Order of the Phoenix would be incorporated into the Auror team.
