Days to grind friendship at Hogwarts
Chapter 482 Fudge's Worries
As for Harry and Ron -
At some point, the two foodies pulled a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs to them and were showing off their food.
The small pieces of spare ribs were just the right size, one bite at a time, and the bones were thrown into the plate casually, followed by another piece, until the face was shiny with oil.
"I said you two..." Glenn said helplessly, "Can you have some potential and leave some for others?"
"Oh...okay..." Ron muttered vaguely, then stuffed another piece in.
Mrs. Weasley had also tasted Glenn's dish and was full of praise for it. She asked a little embarrassedly if she could get the recipe for this dish.
Glenn was naturally not stingy and explained every precaution to her in detail.
Mrs. Weasley was worried that she would not remember accurately, so she specially conjured up a quill and parchment and recorded it carefully.
In addition to sweet and sour pork ribs, there are also sweet and sour dishes such as sweet and sour pork loin, sweet and sour pork, and you (not a typo) in pot buns. Glenn patiently explained them all one by one.
By analogy, after learning the sweet and sour pork ribs, there is obviously no technical threshold for the other dishes, and it is not difficult to learn, especially for someone like Mrs. Weasley who is already good at cooking.
In her own words, these recipes are the best Christmas gifts she has received in the past 20 years.
It was getting late, and the Tonks family said goodbye and left.
The young people were still laughing and joking, and Mr. Weasley and others were already talking about business.
"How is the situation at the Ministry of Magic, Arthur?" Sirius put down his glass and turned to ask.
"It's not very optimistic. Fudge is becoming more and more wary of Dumbledore, and has begun to exclude those of us who are close to him." Mr. Weasley sighed and shook his head, "There are only two people he trusts now, and one is
Lockhart, and a woman named Umbridge."
"If that's the case, things are a bit tricky." Lupine frowned, "Dumbledore has received news that Fudge seems to have begun planning to interfere in the teaching of Hogwarts."
"What do you mean?" Mr. Weasley frowned, "Can he force someone into Hogwarts and become a teacher?"
Sirius nodded seriously: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."
"Isn't this too blatant?" Mr. Weasley was a little unbelievable, "Just because Dumbledore reminded him that the mysterious man is about to return?"
Lu Ping also sighed: "It seems like this, our minister——"
Before he could finish speaking, Harry suddenly interjected: "Why is he so stupid? Dumbledore has already made it so clear, and there are so many clues, and he still doesn't believe it?"
"What you think is still too simple, Harry." Lupine said softly, "In fact, in Fudge's eyes, those clues you mentioned are all little tricks done by Dumbledore."
"Why?" Harry asked confused.
"Because of fear." Glenn patted his shoulder and said slowly.
"Afraid?" The confusion on Harry's face became clearer, "Afraid of whom?"
"Dumbledore," Lupine said seriously, "Glenn is right. What Fudge is most worried about is that Dumbledore will seize his position as Minister of Magic. In his opinion, the so-called news that Voldemort is about to be resurrected
, it is a smoke bomb deliberately released by Dumbledore in order to seize power."
Harry said in disbelief: "How is this possible? Everyone knows that Dumbledore is simply impossible..."
"Of course he can't," said Mr. Weasley. "He never wanted to be the Minister of Magic. Although when the previous Minister Bagnor retired, many people wanted him to take over the ministerial position. Later Fudge took over the power, but
He has never forgotten how many people supported Dumbledore, even though he never applied for the position."
"Deep down in his heart, Fudge knew that Dumbledore was wiser and much more powerful than him. When he first became minister, he often asked Dumbledore for advice." Lupine said, picking up the wine glass and sipping it gently.
Take a sip.
Sirius took over from him and continued, "But obviously, absolute power changed his heart. He was obsessed with the feeling of being the Minister of Magic, and he tried to convince himself that he was the wise person and that Dumbledore was
Trying to take away his power."
"For him, Voldemort's return is undoubtedly a huge trouble. And our society has not experienced this level of trouble for more than ten years." Glenn shook his head and said, "Maybe Fudge is not unaware.
, but he didn't have the courage to face this big trouble. He kept telling himself that all this was just Dumbledore's conspiracy to destroy his stable position. For him, this was much easier."
Although with the help of Glenn, Harry has made many fewer detours in his growth, and his character is not as extreme and self-righteous as in the original work. But after all, he is still young and has not experienced so many major events, so he cannot yet
Consider the issue comprehensively.
"If that's the case, why don't we think of a way to let everyone know the truth of everything clearly?" He thought for a while and came up with an idea that he thought was good.
However, the looks in everyone's eyes soon told him that he was thinking simply again.
Sure enough, Lupine said: "It is extremely difficult to do this. The Ministry of Magic controls public opinion. Although the Daily Prophet often publishes some news that satirizes the Ministry of Magic, when facing such a major event
, once Fudge comes forward to put pressure, it is impossible for the newspaper to publish the true news. You probably can’t imagine that if overwhelming public opinion criticizes you out of context, the truth is no longer so important. Just take Arthur.
He said that if he dared to publicly publicize the return of Voldemort, he would lose his job the next day and even find some excuse to be thrown into Azkaban."
After hearing what he said, Harry's eyes darkened obviously.
Seeing his disappointed look, Glenn quickly winked at Sirius.
Sirius immediately reacted and comforted: "I have to say that although it is difficult, if it can be realized, it is actually a good idea. Not everyone will have the same idea as Fudge. Everyone has the ability to make their own decisions.
The ability to judge.”
After receiving such recognition, Harry's mood obviously increased.
"Unless Fudge sees Voldemort himself after his resurrection, it is impossible for him to accept this reality." Mr. Weasley sighed, "Although this view is a bit pessimistic, it has to be said that most wizards are like this.
They would rather find excuses to continue to deceive themselves than destroy the hard-earned peace in their hearts."
