Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1148: One fire
Seeing that the summer vacation is coming to an end, Draco, who originally wanted to kill Dumbledore and restore the glory of the Malfoy family, has gradually lost his initial self-confidence.
At this moment, Draco Malfoy sat at his desk with a gloomy face, flipping through the murder plans that he had racked his brains for, and then using a quill to cross out the plans on the notebook one by one.
He frowned slightly when his eyes fell on Borgin Bock - an opal necklace.
Purchasing an opal necklace with a dreadful curse from Borgin Burke's store to give to Dumbledore is not a very clever idea.
Even the inexperienced Draco knows this, and trying to sneak an opal necklace into Hogwarts is no easy task.
Not to mention that it was given to Dumbledore and caused his death.
This looks like a joke.
Perhaps, this stupid assassination could make Dumbledore let his guard down?
Or, expose everything?
Draco Malfoy ultimately didn't cross it out, he had no choice but to try.
What if it works?
Draco Malfoy suddenly felt stupid again for overpowering Dumbledore's negligence?
As far as he knows, someone never opens a package from a stranger, and he has a fantasy.
Thinking of Albert Anderson, the Mudblood, filled Malfoy with hatred. If it wasn't for that Mudblood, how could his father become a loser that everyone despised, and how could the Malfoy family not end up like this.
Draco Malfoy would have preferred to kill the Mudblood if possible.
Albert Anderson is actually a better kill than Dumbledore.
Because his weakness is obvious.
Yes, some of his good friends.
As far as Draco knew, the Mudblood had an excellent relationship with the Wes Lai twins, and even went so far as to finance their dream of opening a shop with a large sum of Galleons.
The average good friend can't do that.
As long as you pass through Wesley Brothers, there is a high probability of killing that Mudblood.
In fact, Draco also made killing Albert as his preparatory plan, especially after finding that it was very difficult to kill Dumbledore, he needed to leave a retreat for himself and his family.
According to Aunt Bella's information, the Dark Lord really wants to kill the Mudblood. If he can kill the Mudblood, he will not only wash away the shame left by his father, but also let You-Know-Who let Malfoy go. family.
Of course, Draco never underestimated that Mudblood. He saw Albert single-handedly bring down all the Aurors. He knew better than anyone how powerful that Mudblood was. Surrounding him, it is estimated that it is difficult to kill him.
However, Aunt Bella's words that a killing curse could solve the waste, gave Draco a wake-up call.
That Mudblood is really powerful, and it's hard to kill him head-on, but you can use vile and insidious means, such as using Wes's twins as bait.
Draco received support from his mother and Aunt Bella after he told his thoughts.
After some discussion, according to the mother's suggestion, the Malfoy family first admitted that Lucius' last offer of 10,000 Galleons was still valid, and then took out another Galleon and gave it to Bella for her to recruit. Those greedy and desperate ones go to the mudblood.
Anyway, the Malfoys have no shortage of Galleons, and most importantly, this can maintain the Malfoys' reputation.
Although Draco also knew that the probability of letting those greedy guys kill Albert was really low, what if it was a trap for a weak spot?
Maybe it will be successful?
After all, no matter how powerful the opponent is, he is only a person, and he will be killed by the Killing Curse.
The guys who live in the gray area are clearly better at it.
No one can resist the temptation from Garen.
What Draco Malfoy didn't know, however, was that as soon as his plan was implemented, the whole plan was on the verge of bankruptcy because someone couldn't resist Garen's temptation.
The worst part is that the other party's revenge has come.
As Draco put down his quill, he suddenly heard the family's swallowtail dog barking frantically.
He hurriedly reached for his wand and looked outside the manor through his room window, trying to figure out what was going on.
At this moment, the door of the room was violently slammed open, and two figures rushed into the room, shouting, "Draco, my son, where are you!"
"What's wrong with Mom?" Draco asked cautiously, looking at his mother who was hugging him. "Is the Ministry of Magic coming to arrest us? Someone has invaded the manor."
"It's more serious than that, we have to get out of here, the devil's flames are going to spread." Bella waved her wand to blast open the window, pushing her sister and nephew to jump out of the window to escape.
"This is... ah!"
Before Draco could finish his words, Bella pushed him out of the window. With a scream, the three of them were suspended in mid-air for a moment. When he recovered, he fell to the ground.
"What is it..." Draco stopped suddenly, because he found that the whole manor was on fire for some reason, and it spread at an extremely terrifying speed.
"Quick, quick, damn, run."
Bella dispelled the flaming giant bird that was rushing towards them, grabbed the struggling two, and told them to run. She couldn't quell the out-of-control devil flame at all, and could only leave here with her sister and nephew.
Crawling and crawling Malfoy has never been so embarrassed as he is today, he turned his head from time to time and watched the churning flames turn into all kinds of ferocious beasts chasing them behind them.
"Damn, what the **** is going on," Malfoy demanded breathlessly.
"The Fire Spell."
After retreating to the entrance of the manor, Bella, who was looking at the churning waves of fire in front of her, was finally able to separate her energy and explain to them, "Someone used the Fiery Fire Spell to directly destroy the protective magic of Malfoy Manor, and they were taking revenge. You guys, it's not safe anymore, we have to get out of here."
"How could this be..."
Narcissa looked at the manor in flames, looking like she might faint at any moment.
"Damn, how could this happen, who did it?"
Draco Malfoy seemed to be exhausted, and fell to his knees all of a sudden, looking at the manor engulfed by hell-like fire, reluctantly beat the ground with his fists, and let out an angry roar of filial piety.
His home is gone.
……
Late night, the Ministry of Magic.
Since Scrimgeour became a Minister and declared the Ministry of Magic to be in a state of war, there have been people who have stayed at the Ministry for a long time, and Scrimgeour will stick to his post every night.
Whether it's dealing with official documents, sitting at the Ministry of Magic, or even thinking about dealing with the case. At least, everyone can see his attitude, and no one dares to complain about working overtime.
The door is knocked and Percy's voice is heard outside.
"Come in!"
Scrimgeour, who was reviewing the document, put down his quill and reached for the wand next to him.
As soon as Percy entered, she immediately reported to her boss what had just happened in Diagon Alley.
After listening to his assistant's report, Scrimgeour frowned slightly and repeated what he just heard: "More than 50 bed bugs roaming Knockturn Alley trying to rob the Defence Against the Dark Arts store?"
"Yes, except for some who escaped, the rest have been subdued. Kingsley has taken the emergency team to Diagon Alley to deal with the matter. They have also arrested a few suspicious individuals and are currently interrogating them, which should be very soon. Get the latest news."
Percy sneaked a glance at his boss, and continued: "The shop owner thinks these people are heading for the Defence Against the Dark Arts store, probably because the Ministry of Magic regulates Defence Against the Dark Arts props, which damages the interests of some businessmen ...they also thought it might have something to do with You-Know-Who. If you're lucky, you might be able to follow the trail and catch some of the Death Eater minions that are messing around with the Ministry of Magic."
"Looks like I've had good luck." Scrimgeour stood up from behind his desk, apparently intending to come over and follow up on the situation himself.
Anything related to You-Know-Who deserves his attention.
As soon as he left the office, Scrimgeour seemed to remember something, turned his head to Percy behind him and said, "Let the Ministry of Magic Law Enforcement Division dismiss the appeal of the Zukos on the grounds of insufficient evidence. After all, they are in the Ministry of Magic. The patent is registered and protected by the Patent Law.”
"Yes." Percy thought for a while before asking, "Will there be a press conference tomorrow?"
"If this is related to You-Know-Who, then reveal the Ministry of Magic's conspiracy to crush You-Know-Who again." Scrimgeour thought for a while before adding, "Also, you can secretly reveal the Defense Against the Dark Arts item. , demonstrating that the Ministry of Magic is committed to protecting everyone's lives."
"As for this matter, let Kings and Arthur jointly investigate."
While knowing Percy was Albert's man, Skrein still used him.
Nothing more than that.
Because of safety.
It sounds ridiculous, but it's true.
If Scrimgeour doesn't want to die like Burns, he has to take care of his own life, such as where he lives now, a safe house protected by the Faithful Charm, kept secret by Albus Dumble profitable.
When the two came to the interrogation room, the results of the interrogation had already come out.
Scrimgeour had just taken over the documentation and was about to review the content of the interrogation when a wizard who was left behind hurried over.
"The Devil's Flame, someone used the Devil's Flame to set Malfoy Manor on fire." The wizard panted to update Scrimgeour.
"There's a lot going on today." Scrimgeour handed the document to Percy and hurried out of the interrogation room, "How is the situation over there, is the fire under control?"
It's no wonder Scrimgeour is so nervous, the Fire Charm is a very dangerous black magic that can have dire consequences if it gets out of control.
"Director Robards has taken someone to control the situation."
"Director Robards has sent back the news that there is a big fire over there and more assistants are needed." The former assistant gasped, "There is one more thing, the Aurors saw it over Malfoy Manor. Dark Mark."
"Dark Mark, are you sure you're not joking?" Scrimgeour stopped, looking at his former assistant with a bewildered face.
Someone set Malfoy Manor on fire?
This is without a doubt the funniest thing Scrimgeour has heard of this century.
"It is indeed the Dark Mark."
"Tell Kings to come to Malfoy Manor immediately for reinforcements. As for the matter at hand. Wes, you bring someone to take over and take those **** back to the Ministry of Magic first." Lin Jie greeted the others and planned to take them to Malfoy Manor for reinforcements.
"By the way, send someone to inform Dumbledore."
To be honest, Scrimgeour suspects that this is a trick by You-Know-Who, intending to use it to thin the defenses of the Ministry of Magic and create an opportunity to assassinate him, but it doesn't look like it when you think about it.
By the time Scrimgeour took people to Malfoy Manor, the situation there was already a little bad, and the Aurors barely controlled the situation, preventing the devil's flames from spreading around.
The situation was finally stabilized after Scrimgeour brought people in. In the end, Dumbledore came to help clean up the mess and put an end to this terrible disaster.
"Do you know who did it?" After greeting Dumbledore, Scrimgeour turned his head and asked the old guy in charge of the team.
"I don't know, when we arrived, the devil's flame had completely devoured Malfoy Manor,
And there is a tendency to want to spread outside. Fortunately, you came in time, otherwise if you really let the devil's flame spread ~IndoMTL.com~ this area is likely to be completely finished. "Gardwin smiled wryly, still confused.
To be honest, the head of the Auror office is really hard to do. He has been exhausted during this time, and it is still the crisis response team from Kings who helps to share a lot of the pressure.
"They saw the Dark Mark, could this be a plot from You-Know-Who?" Scrimgeour asked Dumbledore.
"I don't know." Dumbledore shook his head, "Are the Malfoys still alive?"
Scrimgeour looks at Gardwin, who shakes his head and says he doesn't know.
"What the **** tonight, one thing after another," said Scrimgeour. "If you're free, we'd better talk about the situation in the British wizarding world and the safety of Hogwarts students. problem."
"You think you have a lot of work to do later, let's make an appointment after eleven o'clock." Dumbledore took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, then smiled at Scrimgeour.
"See you later." Scrimgeour did not refuse, and after watching Dumbledore leave, he turned to his old buddy Gadwin and said, "When the press conference is held tomorrow, you can give those reporters a hint, Lucius Malfoy is suspected of being retaliated by You-Know-Who for leaking Death Eater information to the Ministry of Magic."
Gardvin was a little surprised.
"Hint, I just need to mention a little to your assistant, he knows what to do?"
As to whether or not the Malfoys will suffer, that's none of Scrimgeour's business.
The ghost knows whether Lucius' wife and son are still alive after the fire.
Anyway, after this incident, the relationship between the mysterious man and the Death Eaters must have become very delicate. Even if the plan fails, the mysterious man will be disgusted.
