The leader of HP arrives
Chapter 73 Press Conference and Unexpected Visitors
What is even more shocking than the news that Peter Pedilou was murdered was that the murderer single-handedly slaughtered almost the entire dementors in Azkaban.This means that the only prison in the entire British wizarding world has lost its most effective means of defense. Those dark wizards and Death Eaters who have been imprisoned for more than ten years but have preserved their sanity can easily kill the guard Oro and return to magic. world.After more than ten years of painful torture, there is no doubt that these prisoners will be more cruel and cruel than ten years ago.
Everyone's attention is focused on one question, who is the murderer?The answer is ready to come out, except for the greatest white wizard in history, the headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, no wizard can do it.
Rita Skeeter's reporting was meant to be, without the name being named.Dumbledore is the spiritual leader of British wizards, and his great reputation still exists in the hearts of most wizards.Soon, a wizard from the Order of the Phoenix put forward another speculation. The testimony of Peter Pedilu in court was purely fabricated. In order to prevent the leakage of Veritaserum during the second trial, the mysterious man sneaked into Azkaban Killed Pettigrew and the Dementor.
But this speculation was quickly refuted, and the reasons for the refutation were even irrefutable.Dementors are not good magical creatures. Fear, pain, and even death follow the dementors like filthy robes. No spell can kill this evil creature except Invocation of God. .The Mysterious Man can't use the summoning protection, which is the main reason why the Order of the Phoenix accused the heir of Slytherin of being part of the evil camp.
The mainstream daily in France has even reached a conclusion, "Not long ago, in order to save his reputation and the backbone of the Order of the Phoenix, Principal Dumbledore sneaked into Azkaban in an attempt to modify Pettigrew's memory. Hundreds of Dementors attacked. Ultimately killed all of them and Pettigrew left the scene before Oro arrived."
Fudge pushed his glasses, coughed lightly, and glanced at the reporters huddled together in the hall, the crowd was silent.Before coming here, he had just met Lucius, and any Hogwarts graduate would inevitably feel fear and anxiety before attempting to slander or even arrest his prestigious headmaster.But the bottle of Felix Felicia gifted by Malfoy has begun to take effect, and an unprecedented ease and confidence has occupied the mind of the Minister of Magic. He coughed again, "About today's press release , I believe that all of you present have many questions that need to be answered.”
Immediately there was an approving answer below, and Fudge gave a low laugh, and raised the thick folder in his hand, "My secretary's office has been working all night for two days and two nights, and has prepared enough official answers. Many of the ingenious answers came from my confidential secretary, Mr. Malfoy, and I believe everyone present is familiar with him."
The crowd was noisy again, and rhetoric like platinum noble arias has always been a reporter's nightmare, especially wizards who were not born in Slytherin had to rack their brains to guess the real answer from Slytherin's deliberately complex and cryptic expressions.Fudge waited silently for the crowd to quiet down again, and put the folder back casually, "Unfortunately, today I am not prepared to cherish the fruits of labor in the secretary's office. In the past ten years, most wizards thought I was An incompetent Minister of Magic is not enough to lead the British magical society to a strong position. I cannot and will not make excuses for this. I invite you here today not to defend my personal reputation, but to To show you the present reality, the truth that Headmaster Dumbledore has tried so hard to conceal all along."
Several teams of well-trained Oro had quietly blocked the entrance to the hall, and a few reporters from the Daily Prophet were the first to notice something was wrong.As reporters of the official daily, they were also insiders at the time. The sudden death of the Dementor caused the Ministry of Magic to withdraw most of the Oro to escort and guard the prisoners.Fauci's recent performance is remarkable, and even in just a few months, he has demonstrated more political wisdom than in the past ten years combined.Of course, this can't be Merlin's miracle. Most of the savvy reporters are aware of the behind-the-scenes driving force. Fudge's unexpected performance just now was obviously inspired by the platinum nobles.Slytherin wizards have always been cautious, but under such a tight manpower situation, they still dispatched dozens of Oro elites to maintain order, which shows how appalling the reality that the Minister of Magic wants to show will be.
But Fudge didn't notice the commotion of the crowd, he was immersed in the unprecedented enjoyment brought by Felicia, which made his voice appear loud and confident, "The truth I'm going to say next, I hope you can convey it truthfully To every wizard in England, because every wizard has the right to know what they are going to face." He took a deep breath, "Peter Perudi died of murder after killing a large number of dementors Flee to. Now there are five surviving dementors left. Unfortunately, we don't know how this kind of creature reproduces. We only know that each dementor group needs at least eight dementors. That is to say , the only remaining group of dementors in the magical world, this species that has been passed down for thousands of years, will become extinct in the British magical society in the near future, and Azkaban will also cease to exist in our time."
Several reporters sighed, Rita Skeeter's report was confirmed, but wizards didn't care about this eerie creature, but Fudge quickly broke this indifference, "Another long-hidden truth However, for a long time, the Ministry of Magic’s finances have long been overwhelmed by the increasing operating funds of Hogwarts, which have been used to repair public facilities damaged by the war, pay millions of pensions, and medical subsidies in the past ten years. .”
He smiled sarcastically, "I believe you all don't know that in the past ten years, as the Minister of Magic, most of my energy was not spent on office work, but on dealing with Slytherin nobles' banquets, spending time in In the manor of the nobles. For the past ten years, I have shamelessly wandered among these nobles, enduring humiliation and rejection time and time again, persuading them to donate more Galleons to the Ministry of Magic. Only in this way can the Ministry of Finance reluctantly When it works, the employees of the Ministry of Magic can get their salaries, the heroes of the Order of the Phoenix can get treatment, and the students of Hogwarts can get scholarships-I am like a cautious Muggle businessman, struggling to maintain this fragile Balance. It is worth mentioning that each dementor on the German black market is worth millions of galleons. Not long ago, Azkaban just incurred a loss of nearly one billion galleons. The most difficult time , I even sold a small group of dementors, the dark wizards in Germany are always curious about any dark species, the galleons were used to buy broomsticks for Hogwarts, although many wizards have since turned to We complained about the safety hazards of the broomsticks at Hogwarts."
There were whispers, and most wizards remembered Fudge's accusation against Principal Dumbledore of embezzling the Potter family's estate a month ago. Now that Fudge repeats the same old tune and repeatedly cries for poverty, it is inevitable that people will recall that the Ministry of Magic is actually out of protecting the savior. interests, or was it a rush to wring this enormous fortune out of Dumbledore's hands out of financial constraints?
But Fudge was not entangled in this issue, the dose of Felicia was not large, and he wasn't sure if he would still have the courage to speak Lucius' carefully crafted speech after the effect of the medicine wore off.He couldn't help but look back at the curtain behind his eyes. Even though no one could see the mysterious man and Lucius sitting behind the curtain, this added to his courage.Fudge coughed, and finally continued to speak, "For this reason, I have appointed Elphinstein Urgott, the head of the Review Practice Section of the Ministry of Magic, three times to review the financial situation of Hogwarts. Three times, The reports I got all showed that Hogwarts’ financial situation was normal, and every fund was used to maintain the castle and subsidize little wizards. Out of trust in Principal Dumbledore, I accepted these three reports and increased Hogwarts funding."
"As you all know, Urgot is now retired, and just a month ago I invited his deputy, Mr. Edward, to fill this position, and—" Fudge paused for a moment, "I also got an incredible message from Mr. Edward. News, for a long time, Urgot has been compiling the data on the report, deceitfully covering up the chaotic financial situation of Hogwarts. Mr. Edward had to keep this secret due to threats from his superiors and Dumbledore until Urgot leave the Ministry of Magic."
The words of the Minister of Magic are undoubtedly directly accusing Dumbledore of embezzling and misappropriating Hogwarts funds, especially since he just emphasized the tight situation of the Ministry of Magic funds, this kind of behavior is even more unforgivable.The Aurors were the first to commotion. Most of the elite Aurors of the Ministry of Magic had experienced battles ten years ago, and many of them were even directly under Dumbledore's command. Fudge knocked on the table, "Of course, I don't fully trust Mr. Edward As I have reiterated many times, I respect and trust Principal Dumbledore, such a venerable wizard will never sacrifice the future of the wizarding world to meet the funding gap of the Order of the Phoenix. Therefore, this Friday afternoon, the Wizengamot Submit an investigation order to Principal Dumbledore and request to appear in court to cooperate with the investigation."
"Unfortunately, Professor McGonagall replied to us that Principal Dumbledore was not at Hogwarts that day, and hoped to postpone the time." A Wizengamot clerk said solemnly, and opened the folder to show the original reply letter, "and At the same time, we are sorry to hear about the events in Azkaban and had to postpone the investigation again, so it is not yet possible to know the veracity of the allegations."
The hall was shrouded in a heavy atmosphere. The clerk of the Wizengamot was simply synonymous with fairness and openness. This group of people was not even under the control of the Ministry of Magic, and their status in the Ministry of Magic was second only to the Department of Mysteries.Dumbledore's absence does not prove the conviction of corruption charges, but many people think of the French reports that Dumbledore lacks strong alibi.
"Remus, are you alright?" Lovegood scratched his cotton candy-blown white hair and patted Lupine on the shoulder.
Lupine nodded reluctantly, trying to pull a smile.Ten years of wandering had taken a toll on his health, especially in order to escape familiar wizards. He hadn't bought Wolfsbane potion for a long time, and he would add several wounds to his body every month.James is dead, Lily is dead, Peter is dead, and even Sirius has been thrown into Azkaban. Principal Dumbledore once hoped that he would return to the Order of the Phoenix as Harry's only relative.But after hesitating for a few days, he still refused. No wizard would entrust a child to a murderous half-blood werewolf, even he himself had no confidence.If it wasn't for the news of Sirius' escape from Azkaban, and the news of Peter's fraudulent death, he might not have stepped into Diagon Alley until his death——
"Hey, I'm never going to publish this in The Quibbler, it's just nonsense." Lovegood scratched his hair again, and turned his neck to look at Oro at the door, "Maybe we should sneak out— —”
"Wait, wait at least—" Lupine was about to speak out to dissuade him, but his voice stuck in his throat. A werewolf's hearing was far more sensitive than a wizard's, and a sharp wind roared from outside the door.
"Be careful!" the Aurors all drew their wands, and Lupine had only time to yell the words when the great momentum hit the door and it fell down.
Everyone's attention is focused on one question, who is the murderer?The answer is ready to come out, except for the greatest white wizard in history, the headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, no wizard can do it.
