Ancient wizards return to Hogwarts.

Chapter 324 Helga: Is he Fudge?

Seeing that everyone here had reached a consensus, Henry felt much better: the task assigned to him by Lord Slytherin was one step closer to success.

When a Minister of Magic's policies are questioned in public and then overturned, his political life can be said to be infinitely close to its end. This shows that his prestige has dropped to a tragic level and that many people who are dissatisfied with him have accumulated too many.

At that time, I don’t need to do anything. People who are ambitious for the position of Minister of Magic will automatically come out to contact me, and I can just sit down and make an offer. This is also the advantage of pure-blood families. They can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and gradually accumulate wealth, status, and reputation for their families. They are hardly losers until they get to the stage and sit in the Minister of Magic's chair.

Oh, no, I still have to do one thing, and that is to report my progress to Master Slytherin, so as not to make him anxious about waiting.

Henry felt that the Lord was unwilling to disclose his identity. If he exposed his identity in the future, it would only be a matter of one sentence to remove Fudge.

After successfully gathering a group of people with enough voice, Henry decided to take them to see Fudge and ask him to repeal the Dementor Expatriation Act - as for how to catch Sirius, that was not their concern, they just wanted to ensure that Dementors will no longer appear near Hogwarts.

Fudge quickly arrived at Hogwarts and met Dumbledore at the school gate, who had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Albus, this is really an accident." The anger flashing in Dumbledore's eyes startled Fudge, and he subconsciously defended himself.

After he finished speaking, he realized: No students were injured, so why should he be nervous?

Fudge quickly calmed down. As a mature Minister of Magic, he had already thought about the solution to this incident on the way here.

First, appease Dumbledore and get things done at Hogwarts, and then go to deceive the parents who don't know the truth. The purpose is to turn a major issue into a trivial one.

The two most important points of this solution are that one is that Hogwarts cannot cause trouble, and the other is that the parents do not get in touch with each other in advance.

Fudge was trying hard to achieve the first point, so even though he didn't agree with it in his heart, he still kept his posture very low and kept apologizing to Dumbledore, showing a sincere and frightened look.

He knew that Dumbledore was old, and older people were always easily fooled.

Sure enough, the anger in Dumbledore's eyes gradually dimmed, and he told Fudge that no more Dementors could appear near Hogwarts.

Fudge blinked, thinking that this would not work. Without the dementors to guard him, who would catch Sirius Black? He just wanted to arrest the first person to escape from Azkaban prison as soon as possible.

He actually didn't care much about Harry's safety. He insisted on placing the dementors around Hogwarts because this was where Black was most likely to appear.

"Can I go to the Black Lake to take a look first? I heard that they were buried in the soil and then sunk to the bottom of the lake?" Fudge did not directly answer Dumbledore's request and changed the topic.

"Of course, I was very surprised that something like this happened." Dumbledore turned sideways and invited Fudge into Hogwarts.

"You are the principal, don't you know what happened?" After learning that Dumbledore was also "surprised", Fudge couldn't help but be a little surprised.

'Is Dumbledore lying to himself? ' This thought flashed through his mind, 'He was very dissatisfied with my behavior of sending dementors, so even if he could use the Patronus Charm to disperse them, he still chose to activate the school's defensive magic to seal all the dementors... …'

Don't tell me, this idea seems quite reasonable to Fudge.

"Hogwarts is a magic school with a history of thousands of years. There are countless institutions inside. Even if I am the principal, I cannot 100% grasp all the secrets of the school. Even if the four founders are resurrected, they will still have a certain understanding of the current castle. It felt extremely strange—in fact, I held my pee one morning..."

Fudge listened patiently as Dumbledore told him "an anecdote" about how he had to hold his urine while trying to find the toilet. When they reached the edge of the Black Lake, he couldn't wait to shout: "Is that there? I saw that the outline of the Black Lake was different from what I remembered!"

Dumbledore nodded, took Fudge to the lake, and told him that the hundred dementors were at the bottom of the lake now.

Fudge glanced at the bottomless lake and swallowed.

This kind of deep lake that looks calm but cannot see the bottom is the most likely to trigger fear in people's hearts. He always felt that there might be monsters entrenched at the bottom of the lake - this idea was correct, there were indeed a hundred dementors at the bottom of the lake.

While Fudge and Dumbledore were chatting by the Black Lake, Rhys and Helga were also chatting in the castle.

"Old Viper, your skills haven't deteriorated much! I'm so envious of that large-scale freezing rain!" Helga leaned against the window, feeling the humid air outside the window, and praised Salazar's field. Don't stop talking.

Shortly after the Quidditch match ended that day, the rain started to fall harder, and it was as if a hole had been cut in the sky. However, after heavy rain for a day and night, the rainy weather for several consecutive weeks turned sunny.

"Same for you, the power of the earth is really shocking. If I guessed correctly, if you are willing, you can change the topography of Hogwarts now?" Les also spoke of rainbows, telling his old friend Sending you kind words.

Helga nodded. She could indeed change the terrain around Hogwarts if she wanted to.

"I kind of want to build Hogwarts on the top of a mountain several kilometers high, a very steep crater, with Hogwarts in the middle and the black lake at the bottom of the crater..." Les became more energetic. He felt that now Although the terrain of Hogwarts is good, there is still room for further optimization.

Hufflepuff looked at him like he was crazy.

"You can go to the basement to find Rowena and ask her to pinch one out for you. In reality, I'd better be more realistic. If you really want it to be that high, the students will be deprived of oxygen if they run faster during recess." Helga said nothing. He complained mercilessly about his old friend.

"Wait, who is the person next to Dumbledore?" Her eyes swept across the edge of the black lake casually, and then she saw Dumbledore and Fudge.

Les took a closer look: Isn't that Fudge?

"That person is Fudge? The person who placed the Dementors near Hogwarts?" Helga narrowed her eyes, "That's great, he actually dares to step into Hogwarts?"

Rice glanced at Hufflepuff and decided to hold back his old friend and prevent her from beating the current Minister of Magic in front of Dumbledore.

If you must fight, you must cover your face.

It's not that they're afraid of him, but they still want to live a peaceful life at Hogwarts.
