Big Boss In The Harry Potter World

Chapter 376 The Crowded Principal’S Office

Hogwarts will definitely not be peaceful tonight.

For students who have no idea at all, the hasty ending of the last game will inevitably become the focus of their discussion and speculation. For those who know a little bit about the news, worry and fear will also become the main theme tonight. For example, Sirna, she knows what her brother is going to do tonight, and except for Solim who is far away from the field after returning, After a quick glance, Sirna never received any news. She only knew that her brother and Harry had entered the school hospital together. It was now past the gate hours, and there was a high probability that Solim would not return to the Slytherin lounge at night.

Perhaps the busiest ones were the professors who knew about it, but it was Fudge who was troubled. Today Fudge only came to Hogwarts to replace the missing Crouch as the referee, and also to increase his exposure, but he never imagined what was waiting for him here.

The Crouchs!

Fudge felt that this kind of scene would not appear in even his most absurd dreams. At first when Dumbledore told him about this, Fudge thought Dumbledore was joking with him, but the fact was the fact. When Fudge saw Crouch and his son who had long been confirmed to be "dead", Fudge even Somewhat delighted. He knew with his ass that little Barty 05 was still alive, and that even coming out of Azkaban without anyone noticing must have something to do with him. In this way, he could further suppress Crouch's prestige within the Ministry of Magic. It was because of Barty Jr.'s incident last time that Barty Sr. lost his hope of becoming a minister, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to take advantage of himself. But what happened this time was enough to send both Crouch and his son to Azkaban! Malfeasance of duty and prison robbery. Either one is enough for Crouch to drink a bottle.

Fudge was still feeling happy. He felt that he had one less political opponent. But before the expression of joy could appear on his face, Dumbledore's words shocked him:

"Barty escaped from Voldemort."

Well, Fudge heard this trembling name again. The last time I heard this name was in Dumbledore's office last year. Fudge admitted that the Dark Lord that everyone feared might really not be dead. Dumbledore also said that he would come back sooner or later, but Fudge really didn't expect it to be so soon, and Fudge didn't even think of something like this that would make all the ministers of magic collapse. It will happen during his term.

But what happened happened, and the objective facts will not change in any way because of people's subjective thoughts.

Poor Harry stayed alone in the school hospital, while Solim followed the group to the principal's office. The principal's office is still the same as before, with the Sorting Hat staying motionless on the top of the bookcase, and the portraits of past principals on the wall still pretending to be asleep.

Thanks to what Solim said to Fudge last semester, the relationship between Dumbledore and Fudge has been greatly eased - although there are still people who are making trouble, but just like what Dumbledore said before Solim: there are some things that Fudge can still listen to. It is much more effective to say it when the matter is about to happen than to say it when the matter is about to come.

But even so, the relationship between Fudge and Dumbledore began to crack due to the instigation of some thoughtful people. Solim understood that the Ministry of Magic was still the territory of those pure-blood families, so he was not surprised that Fudge would say such a thing. talk

"Dumbledore, maybe the devil is not completely dead, but I still can't believe that he has come back." Fudge was extremely resistant to the news of Voldemort's resurrection. Fudge knew how much he weighed, and he knew that he could repair it. He could make up for it, but when faced with the major event of turmoil in wizarding society caused by Voldemort, he didn't have much means.

The Ministry of Magic is not monolithic, and Fudge has never been the one who speaks for itself in the Ministry. Bones from the Legal Enforcement Department, Scrimgeour from the Auror Command, Crouch from the International Magical Cooperation Department—of course, after what happened this time, Crouch would basically not treat Fudge Any threat arises. However, there are still many people in the Ministry of Magic who are disobeying Ji's orders, or even directly confronting him. And many of them are departments with great independent power and influence, such as the Legal Enforcement Department and the International Magical Cooperation Department just mentioned. Under such circumstances, even if Fudge wanted to fight against Voldemort and his men, the Ministry of Magic could not unite, so what could Fudge do to resist?

Hearing Fudge's evasive remarks, Moody said impatiently: "Would you like Karkaroff to show you your arm again? Or Snape, too."

Snape was still standing behind the door where he was accustomed to, and he was not afraid of someone suddenly pushing the door in and breaking his nose.

"There have been some bad rumors recently... about you, Dumbledore." Fudge hesitated before speaking out: "Are you... are you tired of the Headmaster of Hogwarts? position, do you want to change the working environment?"

"Pfft!" Solim couldn't hold it back, "Ahem... I'm sorry. But Mr. Minister, you can be more straightforward. Just say that our principal wants to be the Minister of the Ministry of Magic. There is no need to be secretive. of."

In fact, everyone thought that way at first, but Fudge's red, chubby face told everyone: Solim was right.

"Absurd!" Moody used his cane and staff to vent his anger when he was angry, "Albus wants to be minister? If he really wants to be minister, will it be your turn?"

This is what Fudge is worried about. He understands that if Dumbledore really wants to be the minister, as long as the news is released, a large number of people will support him——For example, Bones of the Legal Enforcement Department was mentioned before, and There are many officials of all sizes in the Ministry of Magic, and even more than half of the people in the Wizengamot support Dumbledore. You must know that there are many people here who are Fudge's political opponents. It's no wonder that Xiu Yanhui fell into other people's instigation so easily.

"I never thought about being a minister, and I never thought about taking your place, Cornelius." Dumbledore sat in his high-backed chair and said gently: "Hogwarts is a good fit for me, and I don’t plan to leave here either.”

But this obviously couldn't dispel Fudge's worries. Just when he was about to say something, Solim interrupted him. He didn't come here today to listen to Fudge's nonsense.

"Minister, your worries are unfounded and unnecessary." Solim looked away from the portraits of past principals. "Based on the Wizengamot, the Ministry of Magic, society, and the prestige in the entire wizarding world, the principal Even if he really wanted to be the minister, you couldn't do anything about it, right? If he really wanted to be the minister, he would have taken measures long ago."

"Let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about Black's escape from prison." At this point, Solim glanced at Black and Lupin in the corner. The two brothers kept staring at Snape, not knowing what they were planning.

"Prison break, and then the dementors rushed into the school and attacked the students. If the principal really wants to get you out, this is an excellent opportunity. Minister, you know what the principal did. Then there is Peter The fact that the rat was taken away from Azkaban is quite a scandal. Did the principal use this incident to undermine your already little prestige? No."

Solim spread his hands:

"So what else do you have to worry about?".
