[HP] Magic didn't give up on you

"It's provocative, Eli," Sirius said, frowning. "They even put their hands on your Muggle neighbors. Do these idiots know what they're doing? Our bilateral cooperation with Muggles It has been in progress for ten years, and he wants to sabotage it as soon as he comes to power? Fudge is intentional at all, testing your bottom line from the neighbors, a kind of secret provocation, this insidious coward, I really want to directly follow him when I go to work tomorrow Punch him in the face..."

"Hold on, Sirius," Remus warned him, "Your status is embarrassing now, don't give Fudge a reason to kick you out of the Auror Command, after Alastor retires we'll only have you there Now, we need to keep track of the movements of the Aurors."

Henry McKinnon seemed to be struggling between agreeing with Lupine or Sirius, and finally he shrugged and muttered: "Well, Remus is right, but Sirius' idea sounds true. Pretty tempting."

"He did it on purpose," said Moody gruffly, "sent Umbridge into Hogwarts to guard against Ministry of Magic members who belonged to the Order of the Phoenix, and now he's putting his hand on Eli. After all, he is still unwilling to admit that Voldemort is not completely dead, and now he has made a comeback, and there are even more than one—he is unwilling to admit this, so he can only use one lie after another to cover up this fact. To appease the English wizarding community who don't know anything about it, though I don't know where some idiots get their optimism from."

"The age of peace is too long, and soldiers lose the meaning of existence." Regulus said softly, and everyone was silent for a while.

"That's right, if it wasn't for the Order of the Phoenix to take over the bridge of cooperation and communication with the Muggle society, Albus' original plan ten years ago was to disband the Order of the Phoenix and reunite us until Voldemort makes a comeback." Eli nodded slightly, confirming that Regu Ruth's statement.He looked around, there had been no casualties in the Order of the Phoenix headquarters in Diagon Alley in the past ten years, and the people sitting here were all his old friends.

"In the eyes of Fudge and the people behind him, we are no longer front-line fighters against black magic, but a commercial organization that only has interests in its eyes." He said calmly, "The conflicts between us are also concentrated in business. In terms of profit, this is why he has not found a reason to kick him out of the Ministry of Magic even though he is very unhappy with Sirius. Obviously, he will not hand over some confidential data to Sirius. He thinks that even as a business Spy, Sirius' presence is irrelevant."

"Underestimated, Padfoot," Remus said, and everyone laughed.Sirius clicked his tongue, resting his hands on the back of his head, leaning his chair back, showing a mixed expression of contempt and indifference, he snorted and said nothing.

"But we all know that he is wrong." Eli said, with a solemn expression, "We do not deny that we rely on our own labor income in exchange for due rewards, which is what every hard-working person deserves. In addition to the part we should take, we use all the remaining benefits for technology research and development, wizard funding, equipment iteration, and promotion of basic equipment. The Order of the Phoenix was born to fight against black magic and oppressive dark times. We are fully prepared for all possible evils. We want every wizard to have knowledge, courage, and means to protect himself and his family. We exist for these reasons, and each of us knows it. "

Everyone present looked serious, they nodded seriously, their eyes were bright, and they were not at all confused about their career and path.

During these ten years, the Order of the Phoenix, as the facilitator of cooperation between the Muggle world and the wizarding world, played a pivotal role, but did not take this opportunity to expand its scale.The parts related to cooperation are basically just drawn from it, and the specific factories and institutions are still in charge of the original organizations of both parties.In the past ten years, the Order of the Phoenix has been well-known, but the number of staff inside has only been increased as necessary. Even today, the headquarters in Diagon Alley can still accommodate all the staff and develop steadily.

But this position is too eye-catching, but any smart person can see the importance of this position and the huge benefits behind it.They are very clear that if they can replace them, the wealth they can absorb is absolutely astonishing, and it will be a huge number that can change the fate of the family. No ambitious person can not be moved by this.

Voldemort didn't do anything in the past ten years, but not all the evil and greed in this world are called Voldemort. As long as there are people and conflicts of interest, then the undercurrent under Pinghu is inevitable. Now it's just following Voldemort's actions. It reappeared, surged to the table, and finally reached a level that was hard to ignore.

"It's an interesting phenomenon." Arthur Weasley said, pushing his glasses, "Voldemort hasn't appeared in ten years, but his secret supporters have not decreased but increased-people surrendered to him at first. It's because of fear, and now more people really agree with his point of view, thinking that Muggles don't deserve to have everything, and wizards should control all resources, enslave Muggles, and take their wealth... I think it's the past ten years The good life makes some wizards inflate again, or…"

"After having entertained themselves for thousands of years with their eyes closed, they finally opened their eyes, let go of their sense of superiority to life, and carefully looked at the lives of Muggles around them. They recognized the technological progress of Muggles, This led to uncontrollable greed." Eli helped him complete the second half of the sentence, Arthur was silent for a while, then nodded with a wry smile.

"I don't even know now whether the cooperation between wizards and Muggles has accelerated the process of conflict." He sighed and said, "Maybe it will be more peaceful to keep the situation closed to each other. Wizards continue to maintain their sense of superiority, and there is no need to Look straight at Muggles, so that they don't know how convenient Muggle life is now, at least most people still don't know, this may be able to curb their expanding ambitions."

"Concealment cannot solve the problem at its root." Eli said, shaking his head and twitching the corners of his lips ironically.

"More than one wizarding family is doing business with Muggles, and no one doesn't like Galleons. It's also fine to exchange British pounds or US dollars for Galleons." He said, "And the actions of the Magical Congress of America are also very Come on, sooner or later Europe will be affected as well. Rather, even if the wind from America has not blown, the wizards in Europe are already ready to move - this is James' investigation report, he was in Durmstrang during this time Nearby, investigating Voldemort's activities there."

He made several copies of James' report and distributed them to everyone present.Everyone lowered their heads to read it intently, and after a while, everyone's face was obviously stunned and shocked.

"The result of James' investigation is...the organization that started a few years ago and was claimed to be created by Voldemort, but in fact Voldemort was not involved in it at the beginning?" Remus blurted out, staring at the report in front of him in surprise, "From It makes sense in terms of timing, we haven't seen any traces of Voldemort's activity until the last two years. So he didn't resuscitate at first, but some people want him to reappear?"

"Undoubtedly, I hope his will will rule the world." Sirius said, flicking the report in his hand, twitching the corner of his mouth, "This guy is more radical than Grindelwald, that's what they think, so the borrowed It is not the name of saints, but Death Eaters. What they prefer is not to protect the rights of wizards, but to fight for the rights to rule Muggles. This is how ambition is greater than ability. In the end, Voldemort was really recruited, and it was completely given to him. Voldemort made a wedding dress, and I'm not surprised at all, and I don't feel sorry for them."

"Perhaps it happened to be what I wanted." Regulus said, with a slight sarcasm in his expression.

He didn't continue to talk about this topic. He rubbed the letters on the report with his fingertips, stared at it for a while, and said, "So what is Fudge's idea? Has he colluded with them?"

"That guy is probably just ambitious and incompetent, deceiving himself and others, that although he is stupid, he is not that bad." Sirius said unexpectedly, and everyone looked at him in surprise.

"I thought you had a particularly bad impression of him, Sirius." Marlene McKinnon said in surprise, "You just said that if you had the chance, you planned to punch him in the face."

"It's not the same thing." Sirius said simply, "I have gradually learned how to see through a person's surface and judge his heart... Don't laugh! I'm serious! Anyway, Cornelius Fudge is a mediocre And an ambitious idiot, but not so bad. But what we can all see is that many of the decrees he advocated, whether intentional or not, always greatly facilitated Voldemort's activities. He refused to admit that Voldemort was not dead. It can be regarded as one of them. It would be ridiculous to say that such a thing is a coincidence. In his current position, nothing can be considered purely as a coincidence. Behind him must be at least one careerist who is happy to see it happen. A far superior kind. The man who probably saw through Voldemort's affairs, but was willing to make way for Voldemort's return."

In the silence, Regulus asked him: "Can you identify the suspected suspect?"

Sirius looked at Eli.

"Dolores Umbridge." Under everyone's gaze, Eli paused for a few seconds and said calmly, "She appeared too abruptly and eagerly at Hogwarts, when a person is too greedy , will reveal flaws."

As for what kind of behavior is considered a flaw.

On September [-]st, at the opening ceremony of the new school year, Umbridge was wearing a pink suit, sitting radiantly and triumphantly on the long desk of the staff. While toasting with a smile, he also toasted in response, impeccably polite.

What are you going to do again, Voldemort?

Just let it go, the more proud the better, the more arrogant the better, when you can't help but show up by yourself.

Eli moved his fingers, and the corners of his lips slightly curved behind the wine glass.
