Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 739: It’s all Fudge’s pot
Chapter 740 is Fudge's Pot
"Rufus, what's going on?"
Fudge put today's "Daily Prophet" in front of the director of the Auror's office with an expressionless face, feeling unspeakably depressed and aggrieved.
He felt innocent, as if all the faults were on his own, just because he was the Minister of Magic?
This is unfair.
Scrimgeour glanced at the headlines of the Daily Prophet, then looked up at Fudge, who had no expression on his face, and said, "Robards is still undergoing Auror training, young and energetic, and dealing with things. It is not possible to adapt well, which is why this misunderstanding is caused."
"Misunderstanding? It's no use telling me there's a misunderstanding." Fudge took a deep breath. "Everyone has a bad sense of the Aurors at the Ministry of Magic right now. You know what? This morning, I found my mailbox at home being protested. Letters burst, at least fifty letters, can you understand my mood? Now, can you explain to me why Aurors who are still in training are sent out on missions.”
"The Aurors are on the lookout for Black all the time," Scrimgeour warned. "We're severely understaffed, and the Ministry of Magic hasn't had a qualified Auror in a few years. The best way is to Involving Aurors still in training on patrols that are not very important, and having experienced members with them, can give them some training and make up for the lack of manpower."
Fudge was silent.
does have a similar tradition.
"Many people asked us to evacuate the Dementors from Hogwarts, and many villagers in Hogsmeade protested to me that the Dementors disturbed their normal lives. As for Dumbledore, he never I don't like the dementors. To be honest, I don't either."
"Nobody ever liked dealing with those guys," Scrimgeour said.
"Well, I'd like to hear your advice now if we need to return the dementors to Azkaban, they've been causing too much trouble lately."
"All evidence shows that Black is hiding around Hogwarts, and the Dementor is the best way to find him." "I think Black's threat is much bigger than the trouble caused by Dementors. We'd better capture him as soon as possible, or God knows what else Black will do."
"If they stay near Hogwarts, we'd better not let them cause trouble." Fudge didn't actually want to remove the dementors, which were obviously better suited than Aurors to hunt down the vicious Black. .
However, Fudge really didn't want to take the blame, lest it be his fault every time something happened, so this time he brought people to take the blame together.
"Dementors are just hungry, the Ministry of Magic can't provide them with too many human sacrifices, and hungry dementors can't stand the temptation of food." Scrimgeour can't do anything about this, because He couldn't have given the Dementors human sacrifices without permission, that would require the signature of the Minister of Magic.
"Didn't you already get over 200 people?"
Fudge is not satisfied with this answer, this number of human victims is more than enough.
"The Dementors have completely drained the happiness of those people." Scrimgeour was also helpless: "I think it's best to provide another batch of human sacrifices, and then negotiate with the Dementors."
This tricky job is left to the Minister for Magic, and Scrimgeour is solely responsible for bringing Black to justice.
While Fudge was grappling with the Dementors problem, Rita Skeeter, who made waves at the Daily Prophet, was also working on her article.
The Daily Prophet's big sale gave Rita Skeeter a whiff of some wind, and a letter from someone gave her some inspiration.
Rita Skeeter plans to write a story about Dementors.
She believes that those dark creatures that have been "out of control" several times will definitely become a good gimmick, arousing the vigilance and attention of parents of students, and the next issue of "The Daily Prophet" will undoubtedly be able to take this opportunity Sell.
It turns out that Rita Skeeter is really talented at this, she's smart, she knows what people want to see, and she knows how to cater to everyone's tastes and sell the paper.
So, Rita Skeeter's story about the Dementors was a big hit.
Wizarding families with children studying at Hogwarts began to pay attention to the problem of dementors after reading the report by Rita Skeeter.
While most wizards have never come into close contact with the evil dark creatures and cannot understand the fear they cause, now is their chance.
As long as you have a drink at the Three Broomsticks Bar or Hogs Head Bar in Hogsmeade, you have a chance to get up close and personal with Dementors.
As long as the wizard who has actually been in contact with dementors will understand what Rita Skeeter wrote in the newspaper: When the dementors are close, all the good feelings, all the happy memories will be washed away from you. **** away. You only have the worst memory of your life left in your mind.
For a time, more wizards went to Hogsmeade to drink, and when people truly felt the horror of Dementors, they became more and more determined to resist Fudge's absurd practices.
Fudge was very annoyed after seeing the report over there, and angrily tore the newspaper to shreds.
On the second day of that report, many wizards who had personally experienced the evil of dementors wrote letters to Fudge, asking him to remove the dementors around Hogwarts, so as to prevent those monsters from getting out of control again, causing irreversible consequences.
Even though Fudge has repeatedly claimed that Black is hiding around Hogwarts~IndoMTL.com~ Let the Dementors stay there patrolling solely for the safety of Hogsmeade villagers and Hogwarts students, And it is repeatedly emphasized that the Ministry of Magic has strengthened the management of Dementors and will not let the previous case happen again, but many people still question Fudge's decision.
Originally, Fudge wanted to throw the blame on Scrimgeour. It was the Ministry of Magic's Aurors who dealt with the Dementors, and Scrimgeour, the Auror's office chief, should be responsible for this.
However, the dumping of the pot was unsuccessful in the end, as if everyone recognized Fudge, and once something happened, it was Fudge's problem.
If Albert knew about this, he would have given Fudge the title of "King of the Pot".
There aren't many wizards in the British wizarding world who know who the head of the Auror office is, but basically everyone knows their Minister of Magic is named Cornelius Fudge, and now that something is wrong with the Ministry of Magic, it must be magic Minister's Responsibilities.
In fact, they are really not wrong. It was indeed Fudge's order to let the Dementors go to Hogsmeade to station. He knew that Black's goal was Potter, so he naturally needed to protect the safety of the Savior. Catch Blake's first moment, let the Dementor give him a kiss, and complete the agreement with Malfoy.
But, Fudge never thought that this matter would cause him so much trouble.
