Harry Potter Blood Hunter
Chapter 386 Fighting wits and courage, a crisis of trust
Fudge is really smiling right now!
When he got here, he was even happier when he saw Scrimgeour interrogating Regulus with an air of persecution.
Today's wait is worth it!
The reason Fudge came here was that he received an anonymous letter yesterday.
Because Fudge knew that Scrimgeour was not a person who was aimless, and since he was forcing Regulus like this, he was even more sure that the contents of the anonymous letter were true.
The anonymous letter was sent by a supporter who claimed to be Minister Cornelius Fudge. He couldn't bear to be forced by the villain, so he carried out some investigations and actions.
He investigates that while Broud Lestrange may not have a basilisk, he has another basilisk that uses the petrifying ray.
The owner of that snake was owned by Brad Lestrange's godfather "Hero" Regulus Black. It was secretly bought from China a few years ago, and it has been raised now. The power of petrochemical rays is very great.
As the heir of Slytherin, Brad Lestrange lost the basilisk, but in order to fulfill Slytherin's will, he would go to his godfather Regulus Black to borrow the basilisk.
Although Regulus Black felt bad, but because Brod Lestrange was his godson, he would still lend it out.
It's just that there is no evidence for all this!
So Secretary Fudge's supporters, who wrote the letter, decided to go and make evidence.
That is to say, he will discuss with his friends, find an opportunity to attack Regulus, and force him to summon the two-headed snake and use the petrified ray on them in a critical situation!
The person who wrote the letter said that although he and their friends might have lost their lives under the powerful power of Regulus Black, they were even petrified by the two-headed snake. But that's the evidence they want! If so, their bodies are the proof! I hope Minister Fudge can make good use of it.
At the end of the letter, the man also praised all the policies of Fudge since he came to power in gorgeous words, and belittled everyone else. He is willing to go through fire and water for him, and he will do anything!
After reading this letter, Fudge was moved!
He didn't expect that there would be such trust in him... Fudge has almost lost all his manpower after being bullied by Thickness these days, as if he was about to become meat on the chopping board, waiting for a new public vote , Thinknes will chop up this piece of meat and eat it.
But this anonymous letter made Fudge regain some confidence.
I'm not wrong, it's everyone else who is wrong.
In fact, Fudge doesn't have a lot of wisdom, and if you read it carefully, you can see the inadequacy of this letter.
But Fudge didn't see it.
Or he subconsciously ignored it!
Because he needs the words in this letter as his support,. And this letter gave him a chance to make a complete comeback, didn't he?
As long as it can be confirmed that Braud Lestrange is the real heir of Slytherin, and that he is really a heinous criminal, then all of Fudge's previous actions against him can be completely forgiven!
Maybe when the time comes, the impression given to the jurors of the Wizengamot will change from treating a child cruelly to treating a prisoner with some aggressiveness.
This is a world of difference!
So how can we make him a criminal?
Of course, evidence is needed!
And the evidence is recorded in this letter!
However, the only thing that cannot be determined is the time... because the letter did not mention it.
Because although the senders had chosen to ambush Regulus Black at the wizarding cemetery on the day of his mother's death, they couldn't be sure when he would come to the cemetery.
So in order to prove this evidence, Fudge sent one of the few remaining subordinates, the most trusted one, to stay in the wizarding cemetery wearing an invisibility cloak at zero o'clock today, ordering him not to take He took off the invisibility cloak and waited for the person who attacked Regulus to notify him.
That subordinate was also really loyal to Fudge, and he persisted for such a long time. He contacted Fudge when the Regulus family was just attacked.
Fudge was overjoyed, and finally confirmed that the contents of the anonymous letter really did not lie to him.
So Fudge asked his loyal subordinates to leave quickly, so that no one would find out, and at the same time asked people to go to the Auror office to wait secretly, waiting for a real witness to report the incident... If there were no real witnesses, he would make people anonymous Call the police.
Fortunately, someone still called the police. Fudge felt that under his rule, the civilians' awareness of calling the police was not bad.
Then, Fudge waited for Scrimgeour to take people there, and he also pretended to get the news, and quickly took other subordinates, as well as the reporter of the "Daily Prophet" who had not let go, to the wizard cemetery.
When Fudge went to the wizarding cemetery, he felt that he had done a good job and had no flaws.
And it was a good move not to let go of the Daily Prophet's control. Sure enough, this kind of throat department should be kept all the time, so that it will be easier to make a comeback!
Now...everything is perfect!
So Fudge walked up to Regulus and Scrimgeour, smiling broadly.
It's just that Scrimgeour suddenly had a special feeling... Why didn't he realize that Fudge looks like a toad before?
And the more you laugh, the more you look like it! Fudge, who was laughing now, was nothing but a toad who felt like eating swan meat.
"Secretary Cornelius Fudge, what are you doing here?" Scrimgeour stood in front of Fudge, "Now is the case, please leave first!"
Fudge's expression didn't change at all, still smiling like a toad, "Didn't I receive the news? Our 'hero' Regulus Black's family was attacked! Of course I'm here to express my condolences! I'm sorry our Aurors came so late, and it took Mr Black to fight off the attackers himself. But it's a piece of cake for our 'heroes', isn't it?"
Regulus said nothing. Because Regulus had already seen a heavily made-up female reporter behind Fudge who had started using a shorthand quill to record every word said on the spot, and a cameraman was also filming.
"But I also received a report!" Fudge grinned wider at Regulus, "Mr. Black actually used a snake-like monster that can use petrified light, which makes me have to guess that this snake is Not to do with the crimes of your godson Braud Lestrange!"
Behind Fuji, the female reporter acted shocked by the news... It's really a shame to be a reporter instead of an actor!
In Fudge's words, he directly pointed out the key information, and once again directly convicted Browder of "crime".
But Fudge's persecution didn't make Regulus have any special reaction, his poker face remained the same.
Instead, Scrimgeour spoke!
"Minister Fudge..." Scrimgeour also had a playful expression, "How did you know that the snakes raised by Mr. Black can use petrification rays?"
Fudge's smile was finally terminated by Scrimgeour's sudden inquiry!
Fudge frowned, "As long as you see this kind of thing."
"I can't see it!" Scrimgeour still looked at Fudge, "Because in the attack just now, although the snake raised by Mr. Black showed up, it didn't use any attack!"
"Oh?" Fudge has been the Minister of Magic for several years, but such a mistake did not make him too flustered, "Maybe I remembered wrongly! Someone told me that I saw the two-headed creature summoned by Mr. Black." Snake, I recognized it as a species that can use petrochemical rays, so I had this illusion."
Fudge thought his answer was perfect.
But this perfection sounded full of loopholes to Scrimgeour.
"Oh? That's it!" Scrimgeour looked suddenly enlightened when he heard Fudge's words, which made Fudge slightly relieved.
But at the next moment, Scrimgeour changed the subject, "If that's the case, then I still want to ask Minister Fudge... How do you know that Mr. Black is raising a two-headed snake? According to the caller, he only I just saw a snake head! How did Minister Fudge get the news that he saw a complete two-headed snake? I don’t know where Minister Fudge’s news channel came from? I really want to know, this may play a key role in solving the case !"
Scrimgeour's words were already merciless! Fudge was speechless, but his face turned red.
"You..." Fudge looked gloomyly at Scrimgeour, then at Regulus, then turned around directly, "Hmph! Let's go!"
The female reporter who was still recording and the cameraman who was still taking pictures didn't react. After Fudge was far away, he followed quickly.
There is really no explanation for this, Fudge, who came here excitedly, led people away in such a despondent manner!
Even if he was beaten away like this, Fudge will not waste this good opportunity... Anyway, he has already taken a photo, so he can write whatever he wants? What do you want to report when you get home?
And the following reports will all be true! It's just that the source won't say it.
After driving Fudge away, Scrimgeour returned to Regulus, "It seems that you and your godson are going to be in more trouble!"
If Scrimgeour still doubted whether Broud Lestrange might really be the heir of Slyklin because of Hovenia hovensis before, now Fudge's slapstick manipulation made Scrimgeour Jay has no doubts!
Scrimgeour used Gryffindor's intuition that someone was blaming Brod Lestrange.
Who is the one?
Fudge? Of course this idiot can't.
It was a very good opportunity just now, but he messed it up by himself! How could such a man devise such a plan?
Again, Fudge is now without any of Hufflepuff's good qualities!
Only negative comments left!
"Perhaps!" Regulus also sighed, "If it's just like this, I can still hold on. I'm afraid that his plan will continue chain by chain...then it will be impossible to guard against!"
"Him?" Scrimgeour frowned, "Do you know who framed you?"
Regulus didn't answer directly. Instead, he looked at Scrimgeour for a long time before saying, "The Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets can be used to trap Broud. Scrimgeour, who do you think this person could be?"
Scrimgeour was no fool, Regulus pierced the last layer of window paper, he immediately thought of the secret room incident fifty years ago, and quickly guessed the correct answer.
Scrimgeour's expression became surprised because of this, his mouth was opened wide, "You mean... Voldemort? Has he returned yet?"
"It can't be said that he has completely returned! But he has indeed regained his vitality in the past few years... Otherwise, why do you think the elders of my Black family died of various reasons after seeing each other in a year or two?" Regulus Speaking of this matter now, I can face it calmly.
Thinking of the obituaries of the elders of the Black family in the past two years, Scrimgeour was somewhat believed by what Regulus said!
"In addition..." In this critical situation, Regulus wanted to win Scrimgeour over, so after careful consideration just now, he revealed to him, "There was a resurrection of Voldemort in Hogwarts last year. Yes! So even if there is no proof, I have reason to believe that what happened this year was also done by Voldemort."
Regulus mixed 10% of the lies with 90% of the truth, just to make Scrimgeour believe him more.
And Scrimgeour did believe him after hearing this.
last year? Scrimgeour only knew that at the end of last semester, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor Quirrell went to steal the Sorcerer's Stone, but was killed by Harry Potter's friends and the organization protecting the Sorcerer's Stone.
So there's something about Voldemort here?
It seems that I was fooled by Dumbledore before!
Originally Scrimgeour thought that even if Voldemort would return, it would still take longer, but he didn't expect it to be urgent now!
Scrimgeour suddenly wants to hire back Moody who has been retired for several years... Although Moody is partial to Dumbledore, Moody is also Scrimgeour's best helper!
In the next situation, Scrimgeour needs a companion who can help him.
Among the young Aurors, there is still a lack of someone who can do the job!
...
Needless to say, at noon the next day, the "Daily Prophet" published a temporary additional newspaper, which was about the attack on the Black family.
Hmm... that's how it should be! If Mrs. Dai read the report carefully, there were only two lines about the attack incident, and the rest of the content was all about Regulus's magical animal from China, the Hovenia chinensis!
Between the lines, the snake was implicated in the crimes of Regulus' godson Braud Lestrange.
At the end of the report, it was also written that Minister Fudge personally went to the scene to question Regulus Black, and he acquiesced without saying a word!
As for Fudge's real stupidity at the time, not a word was mentioned.
The impact of this report is huge!
Because this not only means that Brod Lestrange is indeed a sinner, but also that "hero" Regulus is still protecting his godson!
Regulus' golden body of "hero" really made him feel better these days.
But now there is a crisis of confidence!
