Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 918: The Ministry of Magic 1 is a mess
"...what is Blake trying to do?"
There was a sound of smashing things and cursing in the Minister of Magic's office. Everyone knew that Fudge was furious, and they all consciously avoided the Minister's office. Willing to touch the head of the minister.
Since Sirius Black made some big news at the Three Broomsticks, Fudge, the Minister of Magic, has been in big trouble, especially after it was rumored that Fudge had collected half of the Peter family's wealth before allowing Mrs Peter to travel to After the news of Zkaban's visit to Peter in prison, it immediately aroused criticism from the magical world. What was even worse was that Mrs. Peter's follow-up operation was to rescue Peter from Azkaban using compound potions, which made many people involuntarily conspiracy. Lenovo, they even thought that Fudge actually knew, and tacitly agreed that Mrs. Peter rescued Peter from Azkaban prison, and the half of Peter's property was the bargaining chip between the two parties.
Conspiracy theories are really popular when the situation is unclear.
Many people were skeptical and asked the Ministry of Magic to investigate the whereabouts of that wealth.
Although most of this wealth was disposed of and donated to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries as a public good, it still caused Fudge a lot of trouble.
However, the whole thing got a little bad when Sirius Black revealed that Peter Pettigrew was trying to resurrect Voldemort, and that there seemed to be signs of success.
If it wasn't for Voldemort's resurrection, even if someone knew about Fudge's deal with Mrs. Peter, it wouldn't be a big deal.
After all, even if someone inquired, they would find that Fudge didn't handle the money at all, and he donated the wealth directly to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.
As for how much the Minister of Magic was greedy for, no one knows, and no one gets into it.
After the news of Voldemort's resurrection spread throughout the wizarding world, even if they didn't know whether Voldemort had been resurrected, they all knew that the Minister of Magic took half of the Peter family's property, which led to Peter Pettigrew's successful escape from prison.
This black pot must be on Fudge's head.
And, whether it's true or not, Peter Pettigrew used the Imperius to control Barty Crouch, Director of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, and eventually risked being caught by Dumbledore. Killing, the crime has been confirmed, even Cornelius Fudge can't hide it, and part of this account will be counted on Fudge.
Therefore, Fudge will never admit the fact that Voldemort is resurrected anyway, not to mention that he did not witness it at all, and there is no evidence to prove it, Fudge is absolutely impossible to suppress his future political career.
Fortunately, Dumbledore agreed to temporarily seal the news to avoid causing panic in the wizarding world, so that the Ministry of Magic had time to hunt down Peter Pettigrew, prevent him from resurrecting Voldemort, and kill all dangers and problems in the cradle.
Although Fudge never admits that Voldemort is still alive, he is very clear that he must make up for the mistakes he made unintentionally. .
However, Sirius Black opened the scar abruptly, exposed the wound to everyone, and sprinkled a handful of salt on the wound.
There is no doubt that this is to directly punch Fudge in the nose in person, and then add two big slaps, which directly blinded Fudge.
To make matters worse, there have been voices in the British wizarding community calling for his resignation.
Once Peter Pettigrew helps Voldemort return, he fails to stop it.
No matter what caused Peter Pettigrew to escape from prison, Fudge will probably have to get out of the job as Minister of Magic.
This is a result he absolutely cannot accept.
Fudge even suspected it was a conspiracy by Dumbledore, who wanted to remove him from the position of Minister of Magic, get a more obedient one, or become Minister of Magic himself.
As for whether You-Know-Who is still alive, Fudge doubts it, and he would never admit that You-Know-Who is alive until he has witnessed him in person.
After a moment of hesitation, Fudge picked up the quill to write to Dumbledore, feeling that he needed to talk to him.
If it's not necessary, Fudge really doesn't want to have an unnecessary conflict with Dumbledore. Dumbledore's reputation is so great that his words are sometimes even more useful than his own Minister of Magic. Fudge is very clear that as long as Dumbledore Bridor is willing, and many people are willing to push him to the position of Minister of Magic, which makes Fudge very afraid.
Putting down the quill, Fudge glanced at the Daily Prophet and decided to write a letter to Barnabas Coffey, the editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet, that those **** false reports must stop.
…
Barnabas Coffey, editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet, was also in some trouble.
The words of Sirius Black deeply sting some people, making them wonder if the Daily Prophet can tell the truth.
However, Barnabas Coffey's situation is not as bad as Fudge's, the Daily Prophet still sells well, and despite a lot of infamy, Rita Skeeter's recent article about The report by Ludo Bagman, head of the Department of Sport at the Ministry of Magic, successfully diverted everyone's attention.
By the way, several days of reports have turned everyone's attention to the Ministry of Magic. After all, Barty Crouch Jr. is alive and hiding and ready to make trouble.
This black pot undoubtedly needs to be held on the head of Barty Crouch. Even if Barty Crouch is dead, this black pot will also be held on the Ministry of Magic. Qi is the director of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department?
This is a high-ranking official at the Ministry of Magic, and there is nothing he can do about it.
What's more, the scandal of Ludo Bagman, Director of Sports and Sports at the Ministry of Magic, and the scandal of bad debts, and Barty Crouch, are enough to divert everyone's attention.
Oh, yes, and the Minister of Magic.
Although Fudge's deeds were not reported in the Daily Prophet, they pointed the finger at the Ministry of Magic, as if the Ministry of Magic had problems everywhere, not their Daily Prophet's problem.
Rita Skeeter is still pretty good at diverting everyone's attention, which has led to more trouble for Fudge lately.
As for the Minister for Magic's protest against the Daily Prophet's false report, Barnabas Coffey didn't really care. The Daily Prophet was not run by the Ministry of Magic, and he would never allow the Daily Prophet. There is an image in the minds of wizards who often receive hush money and shut up about certain things.
What's more, it's already too late. When Sirius Black threw out this big news, he couldn't hide it. Even if the "Daily Prophet" shut up, Sirius Black also had his own magazine. When the two are compared with each other, the status of the Daily Prophet will plummet, and then it will lose the reputation of being the mouthpiece of the Ministry of Magic.
As for the anger of the Minister of Magic, Barnabas Coffey naturally had a way to deal with it. He wrote a letter to the other party, implying that he could not cover the matter at all, and pointed the finger at Sirius, who threw out the big news. Black, and reminded Fudge that even if he shut up on his side, Sirius' magazines would still publish relevant news, meaningless.
As for how Fudge intends to deal with this matter, it is not something that Barnabas Coffey is concerned about. He has already thrown the blame away anyway.
Fudge was furious after reading Barnabas Coffey's letter, but he also knew that Barnabas Coffey was right and that it was Sirius' problem.
And Sirius is Dumbledore's man, and he would like to hear how Dumbledore intends to explain this.
…
Late at night, Fudge finally waited for the old guy he hated in his office, and angrily accused him of deliberately leaking information to cause panic in the wizarding world.
"I probably know why."
Dumbledore completely ignored the angry Fudge and said calmly: "Sirius wants to kill Peter, you should know their grievance, his friend died because of Peter's betrayal, and he was imprisoned for it. For more than ten years in Azkaban prison, their hatred has been endless, and it is not a problem that someone can solve with a few words."
"Because of Harry's persuasion, Sirius finally made up his mind to send Peter Pettigrew to Azkaban Prison, but Peter Pettigrew finally escaped from the prison. This is obviously something that Sirius Black cannot tolerate. ."
"That's why he did that." Fudge felt baffled.
"Yes." Dumbledore said calmly, looking at Fudge, "In Sirius' eyes, this is somewhat of a problem with you, and I think he did that to force you and the Ministry of Magic as soon as possible. Find and kill Peter Pettigrew."
"We want to do that too, the Aurors are always looking for Peter's whereabouts, and they've done their best," Fudge said angrily.
"Don't say this to someone who's been swept away by hatred, it doesn't make any sense." Dumbledore shook his head, "I heard that he's been looking around for a fortune-teller recently, trying to find out Peter Pettigrew's identity by means of fortune-telling. location."
"Fortuneteller." Fudge thought this was absurd.
"Yes, he has found a certain master of prophecy living in seclusion in England. We do not know whether he has an answer, but there is no doubt that what Black said should be true, and he still will not give up on Peter Pettigrew. Chase, I recently heard that he was trying to incite... Anyway, a person with a mind full of revenge, no matter what he does for revenge, I won't find it strange." Dumbledore said calmly, "As for Black Why are you targeting you, I think you should be very clear."
"It was just an accident, how could I have known..." Fudge was rather annoyed.
"This matter is indeed worthy of our vigilance. It is best to capture Peter alive and use Veritaserum to tell him where Barty Crouch Jr is." Dumbledore stared at Fudge and reminded, "If you don't want to let him If Voldemort is resurrected, suppressing his helpers is the best option, if you stand by for some reason, then everyone will be unlucky together."
"It's ridiculous Dumbledore. You-Know-Who is dead," said Fudge annoyed.
"No matter how much you deny it, you can't deceive anyone." Dumbledore didn't argue with Fudge about this, he knew there was no point in doing that.
"I've received a lot of bad prophecies. I've been told that one is a coincidence, two are coincidences, and three or more?" Dumbledore ignored Fudge and said to himself. "There are not so many coincidences in this world."
"What prophecy? Who made the prophecy?"
"I don't know, Sirius didn't say it, he said the other party wouldn't let it." Dumbledore said gently, "The next few years, the wizarding world will become a mess, getting worse every year, everywhere. Dead people, there will be mass escapes of prisoners in Azkaban, and eventually the Ministry of Magic will collapse, so he is ready to leave England and seek refuge elsewhere."
"Nonsense," Fudge roared, blushing.
"Actually, I don't really believe in the prophecy. There are too many things involved." Dumbledore didn't care about the angry Fudge, and said calmly, "Of course, fortunately, it doesn't take long for us to I can debunk the other party's lies."
Dumbledore didn't wait for Fudge to speak, and continued: "By the way, I almost forgot, I was originally here to discuss with you about the referee of the Triwizard Tournament~IndoMTL.com~The two people in charge of the Ministry of Magic. Everyone has a problem, who are you going to make?"
"Then suspend the Triwizard Tournament, which is suspicious in itself, and don't you say Potter's becoming a Warrior is a conspiracy in itself?" Fudge said impatiently.
"Unfortunately, after the Triwizard Tournament begins, it cannot be stopped, because the warriors have signed a contract with the Goblet of Fire, and breaching the contract will require a huge price." Dumbledore raised his eyebrows slightly and said, " I thought you knew."
"There have been too many worries recently." Fudge said depressedly: "There is a lack of referees at the Triwizard Tournament, right? Then I will be the referee in the past. As for the other person, let Amelia Born Just be the referee, I don't think she'd mind taking a few hours out to watch a good game."
Fudge can't help it. The Ministry of Magic is in a mess now. Since Rita Skeeter stabbed Ludo Bagman, more and more victims have come forward to speak up, and finally a debt collection group has emerged. As a result, Ludo Bagman does not know where he has gone now, and his position is temporarily vacated, and a suitable replacement has not yet been found.
As for Barty Crouch's death, the International Department of Magical Exchange and Cooperation was also in a mess, and they began to re-examine the orders that Crouch gave Percy Weasley during his lifetime. Moreover, the next director of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department has not been elected. Many people are staring at that position, and they can't be sloppy at all. Even Fudge can't assign them at will.
