Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1046: Bad future
At this moment, at No. 12 Grimmauld Place, Sirius was immediately surrounded by people as soon as he walked out of the studio.
"The broadcast just now was really cool."
Fred and George were not stingy with their praise, "If Fudge and Toad hear tonight's broadcast, they will definitely vomit blood."
"I don't know if they will be so angry that they vomit blood, but I know that Fudge will definitely try his best to arrest you in Azkaban Prison." Kingsley reminded: "Sirius, don't mess around recently. Run, because of the relationship between the "Defense Letters" and the wizard lookout, Fudge has wanted to offer you a reward more than once."
"It's not better, it shows that Fudge is just a stupid fool."
Harry hates Cornelius Fudge very much now, especially knowing the consequences of the stupid things Fudge did, and his impression of the kind Minister of Magic in the past has been greatly reduced. Get rid of the hypocrisy of politicians.
"Before Fudge was kicked out of the stage, it was meaningless to say that." Kingsley sighed in his heart.
So far, he is still reluctant to believe Albert's prediction, because the future situation is too bad.
"Sirius, who do you think will be the new Minister?" Hermione was more concerned about this question, or in other words, she was actually asking "In Albert's prophecy, who will be the next Minister of Magic".
Hermione felt that this matter was very important. Once Fudge stepped down and an unreliable Minister of Magic appeared and continued to sing against Dumbledore, it would really be over.
As for the error in Albert's prediction, Hermione didn't think about it, because Albert's prediction was accurate even if he didn't use the crystal ball, let alone the predicted result.
"Scrimgeour."
Sirius walked into the hall, ready to get some butter beer to drink, feeling parched from the broadcast just now.
"Why not Amelia Bones?" Tonks returned to the hall with several people, picked up the butterbeer barrel and filled Lupine and Sirius' cups with butterbeer, "I think Amelie It should be more likely that Ya Burns will be the new minister, she is the head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement."
"I also hope it's Amelia Bones." Kingsley said in a low voice. For some reason, his tone sounded a little lonely and helpless.
"Actually, no matter who is the next one, there is nothing we can do." George interrupted suddenly.
"Unless Fudge steps down immediately, the next Minister of Magic is doomed to be unlucky." Fred nodded in agreement.
"What did Anderson predict?"
Mad-Eye Moody, who has been silent since just now, suddenly asked. Regarding Albert's prophecy, he is not as convinced as Sirius. For reference and speculation about the future.
Even a master prophecy cannot guarantee that every prediction is 100% accurate.
"He said that the next minister will inevitably become a victim of the collapse of the Ministry of Magic." After sensing the gazes of others, George shrugged and explained: "We don't know the rest, Ai Burt didn't elaborate."
"Dumbledore didn't know about this?" Ron asked suspiciously.
"Since we all know, Dumbledore must know too." Mad-Eye believed that Dumbledore must also know this part of the prophecy, but he actually cared more about what the other party was going to do.
"If the Death Eaters' jailbreak plan is true, shall we take action to stop it..." Tonks cast an inquiring look at Kingsley, "The Ministry of Magic, or the Order of the Phoenix..."
"Harry, Ron, and you should go back to rest." Mrs. Weasley looked at the crowd with her waist in her arms, ready to drive them away. She didn't want other kids hearing about it, and she didn't like them getting involved.
"Mom, we've grown up." Fred and George couldn't help complaining.
"I am your mother."
Mrs. Weasley drove Harry and the others out of the hall, closed the wooden door, and did not forget to cast a distraction spell on the door.
After finishing all this, she signaled that everyone can continue.
Outside, Fred and George took out their extendable ears and tried to eavesdrop on the conversation inside, but they soon found that a spell had been cast on the door, and they could only return to their room in annoyance.
"Useless Tonks, Fudge has become very extreme now. Even if you tell him about the prison escape, he probably won't believe it. He may even think you are Dumbledore's man and fire you..."
"I was," Tonks muttered.
"We don't have any evidence that the Death Eaters are trying to help the prisoners of Azkaban escape." Mad-Eye shook his head.
Even in ordinary times, the probability of success is not high.
"...I know, but we still need to stay in the Ministry of Magic. Given the current situation, unless Scrimgeour is willing to take the risk of mobilizing Aurors to strengthen Azkaban's defenses, the chances are not high, because many wizards Everyone thinks that Azkaban is quite safe." Kingsley shook his head and said, "If Amelia Burns can take over, maybe she might follow Dumbledore's advice, but this is almost a fantasy."
"Didn't you notice? Why didn't Amelia Bones become the Minister of Magic, but Scrimgeour took over the position of the Minister of Magic." Tonks asked this question again.
However, the result was silence.
Amelia Bones is likely dead!
Everyone is aware of this.
"Maybe, we should reach a cooperation with Amelia Burns, her brother was also a member of the Order of the Phoenix, and her family was also killed by Death Eaters, maybe..." Lupine voted for Sirius Look away and ask him what's going on.
"I reminded her, but Amelia Burns was skeptical about it, and it was difficult to convince her in some ways." Sirius sighed, and he actually agreed with Burns As the new minister, at least the Ministry of Magic will not become a problem even if it cannot be united with the Ministry of Magic.
"Perhaps, after we escape from Azkaban, we can talk to her. If she is really killed by Voldemort, it will be a heavy loss." Kingsley did not agree with Scrimgeour Although his boss is a very aggressive Auror, if he becomes a minister, the situation may not be too optimistic.
Not all wizards are fit to be ministers.
"That's not the problem," Sirius shook his head.
"What do you mean?"
"Albert thinks that Amelia Bones is on Voldemort's must-kill list. Unless she hides, the Ministry of Magic can't protect her safety at all." Sirius explained: "I dare say The Ministry of Magic must be infiltrated by Death Eaters, and even if Amelia Bones had the protection of the other Aurors, are you sure you wouldn't be betrayed? Also, I spoke to her about it, so I Milia Bones' character probably won't hide."
"So, Amelia Bones is almost certain to die?" Tonks felt ridiculous.
"We'll talk to Amelia Bones about her safety after the prison break is over." Kingsley also didn't have the confidence to convince the other party.
In fact, if he was in Amelia Bones' place, he would not allow himself to hide.
"It's useless. Amelia Burns really becoming a minister will not change anything. Fudge's false peace is completely broken, and the credibility of the British Ministry of Magic will suffer a fatal blow. When Voldemort completely and seriously threatens Everyone's lives are safe, how much trust do you think you have in the Ministry of Magic?" Sirius almost said this in a recitative tone,
"This is Albert's original words."
Tonks and Kingsley looked at each other and fell into a brief silence. Although they were unwilling to admit it, this was the truth.
"Don't forget, Fudge is constantly pouring dirty water on Dumbledore and Harry. The Ministry of Magic is rotten from the root, which is why the next minister will inevitably become a victim." Sirius also Very pessimistic about the future of the Ministry of Magic.
"Dumbledore would not have allowed this to happen," said Mrs. Weasley uneasily.
Yes, Dumbledore will not allow this to happen.
In that case, Albert Anderson's prophecy has gone wrong.
But...if Albert Anderson's prediction comes true, does that mean...
"I don't think even Dumbledore can change all of this." Sirius is pessimistic about the future, which may be related to his frequent contact with Albert.
"If Dumbledore agreed with Albert's plan at the beginning, forced Fudge to step down and get out, and pushed Amelia Bones to the position of minister, maybe the situation would not have completely gotten out of control, but now I'm afraid it's too late Already." From what Sirius knew about Albert, that guy was actually not an adventurous person.
Especially to pull Fudge down, I'm afraid it was the last chance to make that proposal back then.
"If Azkaban really breaks out soon, we need to talk to Dumbledore." Mad-Eye took a sip of the flagon in his hand, turned and walked out of the hall, "As for Azkaban Milia Bones, keep her as much as possible, once she is killed by Voldemort, it will be a huge loss to us and even the entire wizarding world.”
Sirius doubted whether Amelia Bones would be able to become a minister alive. He remembered Albert's saying: good words are hard to persuade, **** it.
So, for those guys who couldn't be persuaded, Albert let him die, and even watched him die with his own eyes.
After this brief discussion, everyone bid farewell and left one after another. Fred and George stopped Bill at the stairs.
"What's the matter?" Bill asked warily.
"We're going to open a shop," George said suddenly.
"Looking for a suitable store in Diagon Alley," Fred added.
"We value a store, and hope you can help us go there first to ask about the price." The Weasley twins said in unison.
"Where did you get the money?" Bill asked curiously.
"Albert gave us a start-up capital." Fred said, "If the price is not very expensive, you can buy that store, 93 Diagon Alley, and if possible, buy all the nearby stores. Buy it, or rent it."
"Because of the chaos caused by the Death Eaters and the mysterious man, I think the price should be reduced to the lowest ever." George said, "This is Albert's original words, anyway, please help me."
"It will take a lot of Galleons." Bill felt a little emotional about the other party's wealth.
"I heard that he made a lot of money by betting on himself to win the championship last time." George glanced at his mouth and said, "Sirius also made a lot of money. If Dad is willing to put more money last time, I think our family can also make a lot of money." A lot."
Bill fell into a brief silence, he had really heard of this.
"Okay, no problem." Bill agreed.
"By the way, remember to keep it secret from others." George said.
"Are you planning to open a store?"
The three of Harry came out of nowhere.
"Yes," said George, "our products are selling well."
"It's really thanks to Toad." Fred said with emotion.
"According to Albert's prediction, next year will be the best-selling year." George said in a low voice, "So, we have to hurry up and prepare."
"We don't want to stay in school if we don't have to continue to promote the product."
"If you dare to suspend school, your mother will definitely pick your skin off." Ron warned.
"You four open a shop?" Hermione asked curiously.
"However, this store is only temporary and will be split up again in the future." George nodded, "Ebert has a complete plan, and the most important thing is to open the store now."
"Ron, if you can't find a good job in the future, maybe you can work in the store." George joked with a smile, "We will give you a good price at that time."
"Fuck off, you can't find a job." Ron glared at Fred and George.
"Those two **** are too much." Ron looked a little angry.
"I remember there was employment consultation this year." Hermione changed the subject, "Harry, have you thought about what kind of job you will have in the future?"
"Maybe...to be an Auror who fights dark wizards." Harry said hesitantly.
"Where's Ron?" Hermione asked, looking at Ron.
"I haven't figured it out yet." Ron said hesitantly, "It would be nice to be an Auror, if possible."
"What about you, Hermione?" Ron asked rhetorically~IndoMTL.com~I wish I could get into the Department of Regulation and Control of Fantastic Beasts and help those poor house-elves. "Hermione told her future plans.
"Have you given up on vomiting yet?" Ron said with a weird expression.
"It's not vomiting, it's the House-Elf Rights Promotion Association." Hermione corrected impatiently.
"I thought Anderson would be able to persuade her to give up those impractical things." Ron said to Harry after Hermione left.
"Dobby was hired by Albert." Harry said suddenly.
"Anderson himself is a weirdo." Ron shrugged.
"Dumbledore didn't just do that," Harry reminded.
"Honestly, I doubt Hermione is willing to spend money to hire a house-elf." Ron muttered, "There are not many people like Anderson in the entire wizarding world."
