Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 797: The beneficiaries
In the past few days, a lot of things have happened, and the students are dumbfounded.
First, Minister of Magic Fudge suddenly announced in the Daily Prophet that Sirius Black was innocent, and also claimed that the Ministry of Magic had arrested Peter Pettigrew, the murderer who betrayed the Potter family, and had withdrawn the Merlin awarded to Peter Pettigrew. Medal of the Order of the Jazz.
It didn't take long before they heard that Snape had revealed to the Slytherin students that Lupin was a werewolf.
It was only when the Slytherin students spread the word "Lupin is a werewolf" throughout the school and wrote to their families that they learned from Dumbledore that Professor Lupin had resigned.
However, the next morning, a group of owls still filled Dumbledore's table with protest letters, including a few roaring letters, which shocked everyone to cover their ears.
Whether it's the Daily Prophet or the rumors at Hogwarts, no one has ever linked these things to Albert.
Obviously, it was the culprit who caused this incident, but it seems that it never existed, except for a few special contribution medals in the prize showroom.
Isobel and Albert were walking around the campus, inadvertently talking about what happened a while ago, and simply commented, "You are still as energetic as ever."
Although Isobel doesn't know exactly how Albert did it, it's not easy to catch Peter Pettigrew and restore Black's reputation, let alone make the whole thing come to an end. .
"I just pushed at the crucial moment," Albert said.
"Actually, I'm more curious, what is the Ministry of Magic using to stop you." Isobel knows Albert too well. This guy has a strong purpose in everything he does, and he will definitely not interfere in this. thing.
"This..."
Albert pulled out a wooden box from the deformed lizard skin bag and opened it for Isobel to see what was inside.
Isobel looked at the time-turner in the wooden box, widened her eyes in shock, and asked in disbelief, "How could the Ministry of Magic agree to give you this?"
"It wasn't the Ministry of Magic that agreed, but Fudge." Albert corrected with a smile, closing the box and stuffing it back into the shapeshifting lizardskin pouch.
Actually, Albert had long known that once Peter was handed over, it would be impossible for the Ministry of Magic to give Black's bounty to him.
No one wants to be taken advantage of.
Even if the Ministry of Magic knew that the bounty had to be paid, it could still go through the process of delaying it, like the title of the Wizengamore British youth representative.
As for when to finish the procedure and when to give money.
Of course, Fudge also realized that Albert was not easy to mess with, otherwise the title of Wizengamore British Youth Representative would not have been forcibly passed.
If he can drag it now, that's because the other party doesn't care at all. If Albert really wants to cause him trouble, he probably won't be able to eat and walk away.
There is absolutely no need for a standoff between the two sides.
Therefore, according to the suggestion in Albert's letter, the bounty of 10,000 Galleons was secretly replaced with a time converter, following the internal procedures of the Ministry of Magic. The device is used for things other than study and research.
Of course, what made Fudge ultimately compromise was not that Albert gave up the ten thousand Galleons bounty, but that he agreed to remain silent on the whole thing and support both parties to receive the Order of Merlin.
Fudge had seen the effect of the Restoring Humanoid Charm with his own eyes. The effect of restoring the transformed werewolf to a human form would definitely allow Albert to receive a Merlin Medal, but it would be very difficult for Fudge to get a Merlin Medal. , especially the Wizengamore vote he simply can't pass.
The compromise between the two sides undoubtedly gave Fudge a lot of benefits.
After all, Albert only needs a Merlin 3rd Class, and he has almost nothing to do to get Merlin's 1st Class Medal.
As for who made the money, it's really hard to say.
For Albert, Black's bounty is definitely not available. It is more practical to exchange for something useful, and the time converter is very important. This thing is used well, it is almost equivalent to "regret medicine", which can make He acts constantly.
Unless Albert intends to follow Harry into the Ministry of Magic to "steal" time-turners in seventh grade, or to make a fake time-turner and replace the real one he has on hand, this is for the best And now is not the time to fall out with the Ministry of Magic, anyway, Fudge will definitely fall from the position of the Minister of Magic in the end, and then he will quietly step forward and kick his ass, so that Fudge will fall even worse.
Keeping the matter a secret, even erasing his own traces, Albert doesn't care. He doesn't want to be the object of public attention at all, and he is not a monkey in the zoo.
The credit for seizing Peter was originally intended to be given to Snape, but the Potions Professor simply refused. He made it clear that he did not want this credit, let alone the Merlin Corps three Class Medal, which, in Snape's words, made him sick to look at it.
So the credit for catching Peter Pettigrew ultimately falls on Black's head, which is why Black's face is full of confusion when he flips through the Daily Prophet.
The reporting of the whole thing is nothing like the truth he knows, but does the truth matter?
Sometimes it doesn't really matter.
"What did Black give you?" Isobel asked curiously. According to Albert's style, Black, who has nothing to do with him, must give something.
"This number of Galleons." Albert spread his fingers and said, "However, I only took half, and the rest was distributed to other participants."
"It's like stealing money." Isobel couldn't help but sighed, she was sure that those students who were looking for jobs after graduation might not be able to earn such a large sum of Galleons after working for many years.
"Yes, I'm robbing money!" Albert said without hesitation, "Anyway, the Black family is quite rich. If Sirius Black is killed by the Ministry of Magic, all of Black's immediate family will die. That's all, the wealth in Gringotts vault isn't cheap for other people. It's better than me. I use money to do things, and the price is absolutely fair. Did you know that before Sirius Black left school, he deliberately Come and thank me and plan to invite me to the Quidditch World Cup this summer."
"I noticed that your skin is getting thicker and thicker!" Isobel reached out to squeeze Albert's cheek and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"I don't have a thick skin, how can I make money, how can I find a girlfriend."
"Stop making trouble, let's get down to business!" Isobel picked a flower from the flower bed, "I talked to Professor Bathsheda Babrin, and she is willing to help with the rune. "
"Are you going to start with Ancient Runes? I thought..." Albert was a little surprised by Isobel's choice.
"You didn't leave a lot of drafts, I'm going to sort them out so we can publish a book together, just like you and Uncle Mog did."
Speaking of Mog's complete solution to the basic rune, it's simply a big hole.
"It's a good idea." Albert supported Isobel's choice, he also knew that the other party would do it, and there was a big reason for him.
While the two of them were chatting and laughing and whispering, two guys with little eyesight walked towards them.
"Anything, Mr. Potter?"
Albert didn't give a good look to Potter and Weasley who disturbed his date. What happened to these two guys, didn't you see that he was dating someone else?
"We've been wanting to talk to you about what happened the other night," Harry said in a low voice.
Not far away, Hermione looked at the group of people here and put her hand over her forehead.
She actually wanted to stop Harry and Ron from coming over to interrupt Albert's date, but Harry had been unable to find a chance to talk to Albert about that night recently, and came over without listening to her advice.
"I thought Blake told you all about it!" Albert said calmly, looking at Harry.
"He doesn't even know what's going on."
Harry learned a few things from Hermione, such as Albert giving Ron's mouse to Dumbledore.
Although Albert said that it was Professor Lupin who provided Peter's information, there were still many doubts about the matter, especially the report in the Daily Prophet, which was completely different from what he knew.
"The truth, is it really that important?" Albert asked rhetorically.
"I just wanted to know..." Harry was speechless.
"If you want to know the truth, just ask Hagrid and Hermione, I think they know enough to spell out the truth." Albert reminded: "If you have nothing else to do, just Don't interrupt our date."
"Sorry, and thank you for saving us last time."
After thanking Albert, Harry Potter reluctantly turned and walked away. He felt that Albert didn't want to say more, probably because the two interrupted his date and made him not very happy.
"I thought you would tell him." Isobel asked Albert with a smile.
"Maybe, maybe not, but definitely not now. My temper is not so good that I can patiently explain to the other person when I am interrupted on a date." Albert pretended to be angry.
"Come on, let's walk over there."
Isobel stretched out his hand and pressed Albert's bulging cheek to help him calm down, and then dragged him towards the shade of a tree not far away.
When Hermione saw Harry returning, she immediately asked, "How is it?"
"Anderson asked me to ask you and Hagrid," Harry said dryly.
"You're going to disturb others when they're dating." Hermione was a little helpless with what Harry did. "Anyone would be angry."
"Hermione, don't you want to know what happened that night?" Ron couldn't help asking.
"What if you know?" Hermione asked rhetorically, "Do you expect him to tell us everything?"
"But the Daily Prophet, don't you think the report on it is weird?" Ron continued: "They didn't even mention Albert, and Peter Pettigrew was actually caught by Sirius, He himself had no knowledge of it. Fred and George told me that the Ministry of Magic would never pay the bounty for the capture of Black."
"Do you think Albert will tell you something that even his friends don't know in private?" Hermione thought Ron's idea was a little funny. Since being educated by Albert, her idea has matured. Many, at least they are no longer as naive and naive as before, taking everything for granted.
"Sirius gave Albert five thousand Galleons, and I bet he knows this better than anyone else." Harry
said suddenly.
Hermione was silent, of course she knew Albert was helping Black because of the money.
But even Sirius doesn't care about the person involved, and he is grateful to Albert. Who else has the right to make irresponsible remarks?
"That's five thousand Galleons." Ron had never seen so much money in his life.
It is said that Albert split the 5,000 Galleons he got from Blake to Fred and George, almost driving Ron crazy with jealousy.
"Let's go to Hagrid, I think he must know what happened that day." Harry felt that as long as Hagrid and Hermione were connected, he should be able to figure out what happened that night.
However, when they got to Hagrid's hunting lodge, they didn't find Hagrid.
"Hagrid?"
There was a scratching sound from the door, the three looked at each other, and finally Harry used the unlocking charm to open the door of Hagrid's cabin.
Fang Ya jumped up immediately.
"Hagrid?" Harry reached out and touched Fang's head, looked up and looked around the room, it was empty, Hagrid didn't know where he was, but there was a suitcase on his bed.
"What's this?" Harry noticed the box on the bed and was about to walk over to examine the suspicious-looking box.
"Harry, don't mess with Hagrid's stuff," Hermione stopped.
At this moment, the box suddenly opened ~IndoMTL.com~ revealing a tunnel, Hagrid stepped out of the box and was startled to see someone outside. After seeing Harry, Ron and Hermione clearly, he couldn't help but sighed in relief and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?"
"Is this a Traceless Stretching Charm?" Hermione looked at the stairs in the chest, surprised.
"Hagrid, what is this?"
Hermione vaguely guessed the answer, but couldn't help but ask, "What's hidden in the trunk?"
"Shh!" Hagrid made a silent gesture and closed the door before saying, "Buckbeak is hiding inside. Albert handed Buckbeak to me a few days ago. He said that he would wait until the summer vacation. Let it go and avoid being targeted by the Ministry of Magic."
"Sure enough, Albert took Buckbeak away, but how did he do it." Hermione felt that Albert was hiding secrets all over his body.
"I don't know either." Hagrid shook his head.
"By the way Hagrid, can you tell me what exactly happened that night?" Harry didn't forget his purpose here.
"I thought you would ask Albert. He should be the one who knows the most. I think the whole thing is related to him." Hagrid knew that someone had used five thousand Galleons to help Blake clear his name. He felt that the whole thing was arranged by Albert, and although he didn't know how Albert did it, the matter was resolved perfectly and smoothly.
Albert's brain is really good.
