HP Polar Night

Chapter 55 Minister of Magic

The next day Harry woke up amidst the sweet smell of bread. At first he didn't realize it, thinking he was still in that disgusting home.But when everything from last night flashed through his mind like a slideshow, he opened his eyes suddenly, and saw the silver and green pattern above the ceiling.

He sat up in a jiffy, and the blanket slid off him, but he didn't have time to notice it.

"So it's not a dream, I really came to London!" Harry exclaimed.

"Well, in the middle of the night, I crossed half of England by myself, from Surrey to London. I have to say that sometimes you still fit the characteristics of Gryffindor College." Sitting at the dining table and enjoying the sumptuous meal The earlier Agares said while reading the newspaper in his hand.

Harry grabbed the glasses on the living room table and put them on, everything in front of him became clear.This is the apartment where he lived for a while. Although there was a fire, it was obvious that the magical means of the wizard restored the place to its original appearance, without even a trace of scorched black.

His friends were sitting at the table eating breakfast, and the morning sun streaming through the windows made it all look so homely.

"Hey, Agares!" Harry couldn't help laughing.

The boy whose name was called squinted at the boy with a smirk: "You have about three ten minutes to finish washing and breakfast. I will deal with some things first. After three ten minutes, you need to tell me the reason why I completed this pioneering work last night." and pass."

Harry looked like he wanted to share his experience with his friends now, but the hungry stomach and the smell of bread that kept getting into his nose made his head unable to think well.So he quickly opened the suitcase on the side, grabbed a set of clothes and rushed into the bathroom.Three 10 minutes?He only needs about 15 minutes.

About 10 minutes later, Agares sat on the couch and listened to Harry finish his story of blowing up his aunt before running away and taking the Cavalier bus to London.Uh huh, how should I put it, it really is an impulsive Gryffindor?Or is it really the lucky Boy Who Lived?

"Well, since I told you about the serious consequences of underage wizards using magic outside of school, even though you didn't use a wand yesterday, consciously using magic on Muggles is still not allowed."

Harry drooped his head dejectedly when he heard this, thinking that he might still be expelled from Hogwarts.

"Maybe you will agree to take me to Gringotts. I plan to go to the vault left by my parents to withdraw some money, and then, maybe I will go wandering." Harry couldn't help feeling sorry for his miserable life in the future.

Agares raised his eyebrows, a little funny: "That's not that exaggerated. After all, there are many little wizards who use magic outside of school. The Ministry of Magic will not let you break your wand because of such a trivial matter. Send you a warning letter." And someone in the wizarding world will expel the savior Harry Potter from school, just because he used magic to inflate the Muggles who insulted the Potters?No kidding, if someone really does this, his/her brain must be eaten by a ghoul.

Harry looked up sharply: "Are you serious? They won't expel me from Hogwarts?"

"If they did, I think the office of the Minister for Magic would be filled with shouting letters and complaints. Harry, don't forget who you are." Agares smiled.

Harry remembered his other identity in the wizarding world, not an ordinary Hogwarts student, but the famous boy who survived catastrophe, the savior of the wizarding world, and the baby who escaped from Voldemort 11 years ago.But he never liked his identity, and of course he never felt that he was special because of it.

"Would they have punished me like that if I wasn't Harry Potter?"

Agares folded the Daily Prophet in his hand, put it on the table, and stood up: "Don't be stupid, Mr. Harry Potter, pack your luggage."

"Pack your bags? Aren't you going to take me in? Agares."

"Well, if it was a week ago, I would. But something happened and I had to send you somewhere else. How about the Leaky Cauldron? At the entrance to Diagon Alley, where you can live until school starts." If it weren't for his biological father who escaped from prison, he wouldn't be targeted by the Ministry of Magic.At this time, if the outside world knew that Harry was with him, he would also know what would happen.At that time, a group of wizards who claim to be righteous will definitely come to his house to take away the savior of the wizard world to avoid being persecuted by the "Death Eaters".

Harry looked like he wanted to ask what it was, but he was sensitive to some news, so he said nothing.On the contrary, Agares didn't mind this, and said directly: "Sirius Black, my biological father, he escaped from Azkaban some time ago - that is the most terrifying prison in the wizarding world, and no one can ever Escape from there - because of his danger, everyone related to him was called in by Aurors for questioning, including my son of course. So Harry, at least until he is caught, I'm afraid you can't Live with me."

"Uh, okay." Harry nodded, "But I believe he has nothing to do with you...I mean, you are you, he is him..." He scratched his head in embarrassment.

Agares smiled: "I understand. Once we pack up, let's go. I temporarily opened the fireplace from here to the Leaky Cauldron."

Carrying the suitcase, Harry followed Agares to the Leaky Cauldron with Floo powder.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the fireplace, several people greeted him, which shocked him.

"Harry! Great, you're fine, you were worried about us last night!" Holding Harry's shoulders was a burly little wizard, wearing a pinstriped wizard robe and a black hat. A bowler hat, looks kind.After he introduced himself, Harry learned that he was Cornelius Fudge, Minister for Magic.The other wizards are all Ministry of Magic officials, as well as Aurors.

Harry subconsciously looked for Agares, but found that he was being led aside by two adult wizards in black robes, who seemed to be asking questions.Agares gave the boy a reassuring look.

Minister Fudge dragged Harry upstairs, and they entered the private room.Harry kept turning his head back to look at Agares, but Fudge wouldn't let him go until they closed the door so he couldn't see what was going on outside.

Fudge pushed Harry into a seat and asked Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron, to bring over some tea and food. "I'm not afraid to tell you, Harry, you gave us a fright yesterday. Running out of your aunt's like this, I thought... But luckily you're all right."

Tom put the tray on the table, which contained a pot of tea and a plate of bread. Fudge pushed the tray in front of Harry. He probably thought that Harry hadn't eaten all night, but Harry still choked on the bread he had eaten in the morning. As for the mouth of the throat, I really can't eat anything.

"Are you still worried about Miss Maggie? I think you will be very happy to hear the follow-up to this incident. Last night, just half an hour after the incident, two members of the Incident Reversal Team were ordered to Privet Drive , recovered Miss Maggie, and adjusted her memory so that she wouldn't remember being blown into a balloon. So that's how it happened, no harm was done." Fudge gave Harry a very kind smile.

After hearing that Aunt Marge was fine, Harry was secretly relieved.He ran away from the scene like that yesterday, and after he calmed down, Harry was indeed worried about it. Although he was the one who inflated Aunt Maggie, he didn't want her to suffer any harm.He just wanted to teach the other party a simple lesson.

"But I used magic outside of school, will you expel me from Hogwarts?" Harry asked nervously.

Fudge blinked. "Of course not, dear Harry, we won't expel little wizards from school for such a trivial matter. As long as you promise, it won't happen again."

Harry couldn't wait to express his determination: "There will be no next time, sir!"

"Very well, then we have reached an agreement. Harry, I have to ask Tom to find you a room. I think you can live here until the beginning of school." Fudge stood up, and the bar owner just now Put down the tray and go out, so he needs to go out and call someone back.

Harry wanted to ask why he lived here, but he seemed to have guessed the answer himself, just like Agares said.

When Fudge came back again, he gave Harry a key: "Room 11, Tom will take you there in a while. Harry, I only have one request for you, you can't go to the Muggle world, just stay in Diagon Alley Do you have to come back before dark every day, and I will let Tom take care of you." He patted Harry on the shoulder, like an elder telling a younger generation.

Harry had no choice but to take the key and agree.

When they went out of the private room again, Harry noticed that Agares was no longer in the bar.

Fudge left the Leaky Cauldron with the Ministry of Magic people. The bar owner helped Harry carry his luggage upstairs, and finally handed him a note.It was left to him by Agares: The Ministry of Magic won't let me contact you, let's contact the owl.

"Well, at least it's not bad after leaving the Dursleys' house." Looking at the unfamiliar room, Harry said to himself.But he still looks quite disappointed. After all, he wants to spend the summer vacation with Agares more than living here alone.

Agares's delivery of Harry to the Leaky Cauldron seemed to please Cornelius Fudge, at least to some extent to reassure him of his suspicions.Of course, this does not mean that Fudge will believe that he is harmless to Harry. At best, it can only make him give up sending Aurors to station around Agares for 24 hours to closely monitor him.

If that's the case, I'm afraid Agares will find his biological father before Sirius Black is arrested, and then send him back to Azkaban, just to get rid of the surveillance around him.

But now it seems that for his future, having a fugitive father is really a big obstacle.

The author has something to say:

Minister Fudge - doesn't like him because he is too bureaucratic, obsessed with power, and has caused a lot of trouble for Harry and the others.But after Voldemort's resurrection, he was also on the anti-Voldemort camp, which surprised me.I thought he was a weak man who would succumb to the Dark Lord's power.

Agares: Send Harry out with your own hands? ? ?I don't think Minister Fudge should do it. [smiling face]
