Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1129: Change the sky
"The Jedi strikes back, and the Ministry of Magic wins."
"Scrimgeour - Fighting fire with fire."
"Temporary policy adjustment during the Ministry of Magic wartime - no tolerance for dark wizards."
"Albert Anderson - The Youngest Master of Prophecy in History."
"Who is behind the **** wedding."
"Veritaserum will be used to vet prisoners."
"The most ruthless Minister of Magic ever."
"Another Dumbledore, a wizard who can't even mention his name."
That day, when the news of Scrimgeour leading the Aurors to defeat the Death Eaters spread through the major newspapers, the entire magical world was in an uproar, and Fudge, who was helping Scrimgeour with the election, was even more shocked. Close your mouth.
Fudge suddenly understood why the other party was delaying the time. It turned out that it was for this, and to take the position of Minister of Magic with the power of defeating the Death Eaters, and then it would save a lot of trouble.
All of this was Scrimgeour's plan. That guy had already discussed it with that Anderson, using the other party's wedding to set up a trap to lure the Death Eaters into taking the bait.
Think of the fact that all the guests going to the wedding are Aurors posing as Aurors...it's no wonder the Death Eaters would have a big downfall.
Eight were killed directly, and three Death Eaters were captured alive. Fudge also heard that the three Death Eaters survived because Scrimgeour intended to fine them.
To be honest, hearing this news, Fudge was completely stunned and imposed a heavy fine on the Death Eaters.
Fine, really not extortion?
It never occurred to him that he would one day blackmail the Death Eaters.
And the reason Fudge knew the big news was because Scrimgeour hoped he could persuade the three hapless men to pay. Because the three Death Eaters are his old friends Malfoy, Crabbe and Carol, they are all relatively wealthy.
In Scrimgeour's terms, the Ministry of Magic is in dire need of a sum of money to purchase Dark Arts protection for all Ministry employees.
Since the chaos was caused by the Death Eaters, they paid for it instead.
The robber's logic just confuses Fudge.
Defense Against the Dark Arts?
Fudge had heard about it from Percy, who was said to be the shop Albert opened with three friends.
It is said that the Defence Against the Dark Arts item has been very well received by the Aurors.
This... wait, Fudge suddenly understood.
This is obviously a cooperation between the two parties, he originally thought that the relationship between the Auror and that Anderson was not good, but now it does not seem to be the case.
Scrimgeour is clearly colluding with Anderson, and Scrimgeour's hand is very beautiful, sitting directly in the position of Minister of Magic, and he has also drawn a reliable ally. It is said that Scrimgeour is still attracting Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix also asked Kingsley and Arthur to persuade Harry Potter to let the Savior give him a platform to support his course of action against Death Eaters and Dark Wizards.
As for the guilt of using Veritaserum to torture prisoners, Fudge doesn't seem to have much at all.
The problem is that Scrimgeour seems to be planning to use this to execute a horde of dark wizards.
If Harry Potter and Dumbledore both support him, after a wave of Veritaserum interrogation, it is hard to imagine how many dark wizards who are captured will survive.
Fudge heard that Scrimgeour had sent his family away and hid himself, and he was left alone, ready to go head-to-head with Voldemort and the Death Eaters.
Really tough.
And, not only ruthless to others, but also ruthless to myself.
However, Scrimgeour might be able to make a difference in the wizarding world.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
"Minister..."
Percy's speech was interrupted by Fudge.
"Weasley, I have recommended you to Scrimgeour, and he is very satisfied with your abilities." Fudge said to Percy, "Next, you have a mission, and that is to talk to Kingsley with him. Arthur Weasley went to find Harry Potter."
"Looking for Harry Potter?"
Percy was a little stunned. He was not surprised that he was the assistant to the new minister, because Albert had already helped him make predictions.
Percy is well aware of his next mission, which is to be the bridge between Scrimgeour and Albert.
Sometimes, Percy finds it incredible. He didn't expect Scrimgeour to work with Albert at all. The two sides had been very unhappy before, but Scrimgeour's willingness to put down his body surprised him. .
However, seeing the current wave of hype, he suddenly understood why.
"Yes, Scrimgeour hopes that Harry Potter will support his follow-up policy against Death Eaters and Dark Wizards." Fudge handed a piece of parchment to Percy, reminding, "This is the process, Bo. You only need to show up and say a word."
"I agree that the Ministry of Magic has taken tough measures to deal with the dark wizards. When facing these evil guys, you must not be lenient and show mercy, because that is irresponsible for yourself, your family, and everyone's life." Xi read out the words on the parchment softly, and even he felt it made sense.
Is this so that Harry Potter will support the Ministry of Magic to directly kill those evil dark wizards?
Percy was aware of Scrimgeour's post-employment policies.
Scrimgeour apparently intends to have the Savior and Dumbledore endorse and share his burden.
Otherwise kill a large group of people, what will the others think.
Too cruel, and equally daunting.
But if you don't do this, it's really hard to suppress the arrogance of Voldemort and the Death Eaters.
Percy thinks it's 80% that You-Know-Who and the Death Eaters went to make trouble at the wedding and completely **** off Albert, so he said something to Scrimgeour.
"What about the reporter?" Percy asked suddenly.
"Let the reporters come back tomorrow to interview the new minister," Fudge said impatiently, and he had work to do.
A short while later, Fudge went to the courtroom alone, where ten Aurors were guarding three Death Eaters. Jie's assistant was writing something on the parchment, and when they saw Fudge come in, everyone nodded slightly towards him.
"How's it going?" Fudge asked.
"The charges have been made clear."
The assistant handed Fudge a few parchments and notes as he spoke, then followed the Auror out of the courtroom temporarily, leaving room for them to communicate.
Fudge glanced at the incriminating evidence on the parchment, and then at the contents of the note. He couldn't help but shudder for a moment. He quickly regained his composure and looked at the old acquaintances who were locked in the iron cage.
After a long silence, Fudge said suddenly, "Scrimgeour asked me to convince you."
Lucius was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Convince us?"
"He asked me to ask you, do you want to die or go to Azkaban prison alive." Fudge glanced at the contents of the note and continued: "Actually, you are lucky, at least you have this choice. Chances are, a total of eight Death Eaters were killed on the spot."
"What do we need to pay?" Lucius Malfoy tried to calm himself.
"Gallen." Fudge flipped the parchment in his hand and introduced calmly: "Pay the fine according to your crime. Mr. Malfoy needs to pay the fine of fifty thousand Galleons, Mr. Crabbe is thirty thousand, Mr. Carroll is twenty thousand."
"You guys are naked robbery." Crabbe growled angrily.
"Actually I think so too." Fudge showed a helpless expression and shrugged at the three of them, "But this is what Scrimgeour meant. Several Aurors were killed in battle, and he was very angry. Letting you die in battle is because you are pure-blooded wizards and the crime is not serious. Fudge put away the parchment and reminded: "Don't look at me like that, I'm actually just a helper. You only have five minutes to think about it. "
"What if we don't agree?" asked Lucius Malfoy.
"The Aurors outside will come in and help you die." Fudge took out his pocket watch and glanced at the time. "This is not a threat, Scrimgeour really wants to kill you all. By the way, he let me To pass on a word to you, there is hope in life."
"Don't think about it, I promise to pay the fine." Lucius Malfoy said before Fudge left, "Are we going to be sentenced to life in prison?"
"Yes."
"This new minister is really unusual!" Lucius said with emotion.
"You..." Crabbe turned to stare at Malfoy.
"Promise, there is hope if you live." Malfoy said to two colleagues around him, "What should we do next?"
"Write a letter to the family and ask them to pay the fine." Fudge was satisfied with Malfoy's current affairs, at least the task Scrimgeour gave him was successfully completed.
After persuading the three, Fudge called in the Aurors from outside, and the Aurors would temporarily detain the person at the Ministry of Magic, pending trial in two days.
In the meantime, if the Ministry of Magic fails to get the money, the three are not even eligible to be tried.
After completing the mission, Fudge went directly to Scrimgeour's office.
Although Scrimgeour has overwhelmingly elected the new Minister, the appointment is tomorrow morning, so Scrimgeour is not using the Minister's office.
"How's it going?" Scrimgeour asked.
"They've agreed to accept the fine," Fudge nodded.
"Fine."
Pierce Hinckness asks suspiciously that he is the next head of the Magical Law Enforcement Division scheduled for Scrimgeour.
"Give those three lucky ones a chance to live," Scrimgeour explained calmly. "You know, the employees at the Ministry are uncomfortable with the situation and we need to give them some protection, and It takes a sum of Galleons to make it happen."
"Guaranteed? What?"
"The Defence Against the Dark Arts props used by the Aurors work well, and our employees need some too, which requires a lot of Galleons, and they happen to be rich, so use Galleons to buy a life sentence ."
Sinkness's face twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything more.
Who made Scrimgeour blackmail the Death Eaters?
Furthermore, it was planned to use the blackmailed Galleons to benefit the employees of the Ministry of Magic, although such a thing was unprecedented, but now it is a time of war, and the enemy is not worthy of sympathy.
"You have two missions," said Scrimgeour grimly. "Hurry up and use Veritaserum to try the captured dark wizards to see if they are under the Imperius Curse."
Sinkness could clearly feel the killing intent emanating from the new minister, but he still asked hard: "What if it was controlled by the Imperius Curse?"
"Wizards under the Imperius will spend the next long time in St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries. We will set up a prison there for those under the Imperius. Patients, they will not be released until they have fully recovered." Scrimgeour said without hesitation: "Don't worry about using Veritaserum, at least we will give them a chance to reduce the number of innocent tragic deaths of wizards."
"In addition, you need to reduce the number of dark wizards as much as possible, and the most wicked must be sentenced to death, not put in Azkaban prison." Scrimgeour reminded again, "It's better to pull them out and kill them on the spot, not to. Leave them any chance."
"But, will this..."
"Too cruel? No, if anyone has a problem, we can arrange for them to have a good chat with the families who were killed by the dark wizard." Scrimgeour looked Sinkenis in the eyes and said, "Remember, It's never our job to forgive them, we're only responsible for sending them to meet those they innocently killed, understand?"
"Understood?" Sinkenis couldn't help swallowing.
"Well, the main thing is that our prisons are not safe, Azkaban has had several prison escapes." Scrimgeour said without shyness, "So, it is necessary for us to reduce black The number of sorcerers, lest someone take them out of prison and let them out to harm others."
"Where's the Death Eaters?" Sinkness couldn't help asking.
"I don't think the Death Eaters will end well if they escape. You-Know-Who is not a benevolent guy." Scrimgeour sneered, "And, if they escape again, I'll order the Aurors to kill them the next time they meet ~IndoMTL.com~ Pierce Sinkenis nodded stiffly and agreed.
"By the way, there is one more thing you need to pay attention to," said Scrimgeour suddenly.
"What's the matter?"
"Your security concerns."
"My security concerns?"
"Yes, if You-Know-Who wants to disintegrate the Ministry of Magic, he will have to murder or control the higher-ups within the Ministry. We need to make sure that the higher-ups are not controlled by the Imperius Curse." Scrimgeour continued, "Next, we need to introduce A belligerent."
At this time, the office was ringing.
Arthur Weasley pushed open the door and walked in, looking at everyone in the office in astonishment.
"Arthur, you will be called to the Office of Reconnaissance and Seizure of Counterfeit Defensive Spells and Protective Equipment. This appointment will take effect tomorrow." Scrimgeour said straight to the point: "Recently, the mysterious It's making everyone panic, Diagon Alley is full of people making some weird stuff to sell for money, I don't want to see those things, and the Ministry of Magic is going to order a batch of Defence Against the Dark Arts items, I need you to be able to Go talk to the store, get a good in-house price for the Ministry of Magic, and cooperate with the Aurors to check the finished product. Of course, we'll be ordering in bulk, and it would be nice if they could develop something specifically for our needs."
Arthur Weasley was a little stunned, and was stunned when he accepted the transfer paperwork handed over by Scrimgeour.
Because the Defence Against the Dark Arts item was actually made by a shop run by Fred and George.
"Next, you have an urgent task, go to Harry Potter with Kingsley and Assistant Minister Weasley, and convince them to support the Ministry of Magic's follow-up policy against Death Eaters and Dark Wizards, Dumbledore. I'll discuss it with Lido personally."
