Days to grind friendship at Hogwarts

This report can probably be summed up in one sentence——

A little boy who has loved to cause trouble and brag since he was a child. In order to make himself the focus of the crowd, he made up a nonsense, which happened to be a madman who mistakenly thought that his master had returned. The old fool Dumbledore believed it to be true. The wise Fudge

The minister saw through the lies and specifically reminded the public that if they did not believe the rumors or spread them, the mysterious man would have died long ago and would never be resurrected.

As for Rita Skeeter's report, it is obviously more than one level higher than this one.

She first summarized Harry's description and Barty Crouch Jr.'s confession, introducing it concisely and clearly, giving people an accurate understanding of Voldemort's plan to resurrect him.

Although no one has heard of the recipe for the resurrection potion, he is a mysterious person after all, and it is reasonable to master some black magic beyond ordinary people's understanding.

Coupled with Dumbledore's reasoning and suggestions and advice to ordinary wizards, it can almost be said to be rigorous in logic and sincere in emotion.

More importantly, Fudge is not mentioned a word throughout this article, as if he was not present from beginning to end. There is no conflict or embarrassment.

All I can say is, let’s make a decision.

In fact, this is no wonder the author of the article. In fact, Fudge should not have taken action at this time at all——

He couldn't mention the details of last night. In addition, the news about Voldemort's resurrection had not yet spread. This report came out so suddenly, which was obviously a bit baffling. It even gave people the feeling that there was no silver in this place.

.

It is worth mentioning that Skeeter's report was not signed, which was Dumbledore's intention. Even the manuscript was delivered to the newspaper by Lockhart himself.

Although this woman was not a good person and had to write for the Order of the Phoenix because of her unbreakable oath, she was just an ordinary reporter after all. In order to avoid the revenge of the Death Eaters, Dumbledore decided to provide her with

Minimum protective measures.

It must be said that Lockhart made a huge contribution to the conflict between the Order of the Phoenix and Fudge's faction.

Not only did he make many senior officials of the Ministry of Magic choose to believe in Dumbledore, but he also used his influence in the newspaper to ensure that Skeeter's article could be published smoothly, and it appeared on the front page at the same time as Fudge's report, forming a distinct

comparison.

Without his help, it would be difficult for Dumbledore to gain any upper hand in this war of public opinion.

Thinking of this, Glenn couldn't help but feel a little lucky. For such a useful character, it would be a pity if he ended up with amnesia like in the original work. The only drawback is that this guy's strength is really poor.

"You haven't finished reading yet? Why are you reading so carefully?" Seeing that Glenn was still staring at the newspaper in a daze, Eddie stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes.

"Oh, I've finished reading." Glenn came back to his senses, returned the newspaper to him, and said.

"I didn't expect that Harry Potter actually experienced such a terrifying thing last night." Marcos couldn't help but said, "Witnessing the resurrection of the mysterious man with my own eyes, if it were me, let alone escaping back, I would be scared.

I was scared to death!"

Glenn couldn't help but look at him: "So, do you believe the report about Fu... I mean the mysterious man is about to return?"

"Otherwise?" Marcos said with a strange look in his eyes, "Don't you believe it?"

Marietta also came over and whispered: "It's impossible...haven't you always had a good relationship with Potter and Dumbledore?"

"Of course I believe it..." Glenn quickly waved his hand, "I'm just curious as to why you don't believe in the official life of the Ministry of Magic."

"Tch~" Eddie curled his lips disdainfully, "No one in their right mind would believe those nonsense, right? If it's not clear, it's just a smear campaign? Although we are not familiar with Potter, after all, we are together at Hogwarts.

After studying for so many years, can’t we still see whether the slanderous content is true or false?”

Marcos immediately agreed: "There are also those who say that Dumbledore is old and confused. Anyway, I don't see where he is confused..."

Just as Glenn guessed, this article that Fudge sent people out overnight actually had an effect.

negative effects.

Not only these few friends, but also most of the students at Hogwarts, all had similar reactions, except for the descendants of Death Eaters in Slytherin.

At this time, Dumbledore also finished his breakfast, stood up, and cleared his throat.

Noticing his actions, everyone fell silent, and the whispers and discussions in the auditorium gradually disappeared.

"I believe that many people have noticed the contents of the Daily Prophet," Dumbledore said with a serious expression. "Of course I have no reason to stop you from discussing this, but there is one thing that needs to be noted. I hope you will not go there.

Disturb Harry and cause him trouble."

This can be regarded as a kind of protection in disguise. Although Harry did not experience the tragedy of Cedric being killed in front of his eyes, the thrilling experience last night was enough to give him a big blow. If anyone keeps asking questions again,

, it will inevitably make him keep recalling that experience.

Since the fifth grade students had finished their o..ls exams, the last few days of the school year became holidays. After spending half a day bored in the common room, Qiu proposed to go see Harry.

When they arrived at the school hospital, Hermione and Ron were already sitting beside Harry's bed. They came to visit during lunch break and brought him some snacks.

"It seems that we have done a little bit unnecessary." Glenn said, pouring a large bag of desserts in his arms on the bedside table.

Harry felt much better and thanked him with a smile.

"We need to keep our voices down..." Hermione made a gesture of silence. "Madam Pomfrey said that Professor Moody needs to rest. If we wake him up, he will be kicked out immediately."

Glenn nodded, pulled a bench for himself and Qiu, and glanced at the hospital bed where Barty Crouch Jr. lay last night.

Seemingly noticing his look, Harry explained: "The person pretending to be Professor Moody has been taken away by the Ministry of Magic. He is a very serious Auror with brown hair and gold-rimmed eyes, like

He has the head of an old lion. According to Madam Pomfrey, he seems to be the head of the Auror Office."

"Rufus Scrimgeour?" Glenn asked. "That seems to be the one who holds the position now."

"That should be true," Harry said, "I heard Dumbledore call him Rufus, and they chatted alone for a while, not long after they left."

Chatted for a while?

This is somewhat intriguing. If Dumbledore and Scrimgeour also reach some kind of cooperation, it may be bad news for the anxious Fudge.
