Hogwarts Emerald
Chapter 55 Awakening
While Ada was lying asleep in the school doctor's office, Benedict Foley had received the punishment he deserved.
After Professor McGonagall escorted the twins back to the lounge, she sent a letter to the current minister Fudge. Professor Fudge, who was far away in London, did not delay after receiving the letter. He immediately set off to Hogwarts to accompany him. Several Aurors also came.
Fudge and Professor McGonagall went directly to the principal's office to see Dumbledore. The current minister only chatted with Dumbledore for less than half an hour before leaving.
The new minister had no doubts about Dumbledore's words, and was even asking Dumbledore for his opinion on how to deal with it, as if Dumbledore was the minister and he was just the minister's senior assistant.
But Dumbledore didn't give any advice and let Fudge handle it himself. Dumbledore had no intention of seizing power. He could help Fudge secure his position as Minister of Magic, but he did not want to make decisions for the Minister.
Dumbledore's abilities in all aspects were far superior to Fudge's. If he wanted to be minister, Fudge wouldn't be able to do it. But Dumbledore didn't want to be a minister, nor did he want the minister to be his puppet.
Power is a good thing, but it is too easy to be obsessed with. Dumbledore was once deeply involved in it. Now he does not want to repeat the mistakes of his youth. He can no longer afford the price of making mistakes.
Foley was imprisoned in his old office, his wand confiscated, and the magical vines still binding him tightly. In the office, Hagrid was holding his giant crossbow. He was arranged by Dumbledore to guard the welfare of the coma.
The Aurors were sent by Fudge to escort Foley. They took the prisoner from Hagrid and sent him directly to Azkaban without any trial. Waiting for Foley were the terrifying dementors and a long of sentence.
Many prisoners in Azkaban will go insane because they can't stand the dementors. Losing their lives is not a big deal here. This is a prison that makes everyone feel scared.
Maybe Foley would wake up when the escort team flew over the North Sea, or maybe he would wake up when he was imprisoned in a cell in Azkaban. But no matter what the situation is, the "welcoming welcome" that Welfare wants will no longer exist.
Voldemort's staunch follower attacked two Hogwarts students. These two crimes are enough for him to squat in Azkaban until he is old. If he has any other unknown crimes, then he can choose them directly here. The pit became his own tomb.
While Ada was sleeping, the twins stayed by Ada's side except in class and when sleeping. It was Professor McGonagall's order to go to class, and the twins did not dare to blatantly disobey them; and when the curfew came at night, Madam Pomfrey would rudely kick the two brothers away.
Therefore, the twins did not have much time to stay in the school doctor's office. In order to be able to stay by Ada's side, they not only did not participate in Quidditch training, they even gave up their favorite pranks.
It was already the night of the third day when Ada woke up. The moment she opened her eyes, she naturally saw the twins guarding the bedside.
"Good evening, brave Miss Drizzt." Fred greeted Ada with a smile. He picked up a piece of apple pie from the small table next to the hospital bed and handed it to Ada.
"Brave but stupid Miss Drizzt, would you like a glass of water?" George poured a glass of water and put it on the small table.
Ada was naturally hungry after sleeping for so long, and her stomach was already growling in protest, but now she wanted to drink a glass of water. Ada drank the water in the glass first, then took the apple pie and ate it.
"Good evening, Mr. Weasleys." Ada ate the apple pie before speaking to the twins. With the apple pie as a base, Ada felt like she was alive.
Fred handed Ada a copy of the Daily Prophet and said, "Look, you're in the newspaper."
George brought Ada another sandwich and continued, "It's just a little unclear."
Although she already knew Foley's identity, Ada still opened the newspaper and read it while eating. But Ada looked through the entire page of the newspaper and couldn't find her name, not even her surname.
As if he knew this would happen, George came directly over and pointed out a passage to her: A student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry assisted the Aurors in their capture...
"Are you angry? You almost died."
"Obviously Dumbledore and you captured him together, but your names were not mentioned at all."
"This is the Daily Prophet, that's why we hate the Ministry of Magic so much." The twins said together.
Ada doesn't think so. Dumbledore no longer needs such a thing to express his achievements, and Ada also doesn't want such an "honor". It would be best not to have this paragraph at all.
Compared with these illusory honors, Ada wants some actual rewards, such as a bag of gold galleons or something. After all, Welfare is also a vicious Death Eater. Even if he is just a trainee, he is still worth a lot of money, right?
"What are you looking for?" George asked, looking at Ada looking for something.
"Jin Gallon, I helped the Ministry of Magic make achievements, is it true that the Ministry of Magic didn't say anything at all?" Ada turned her head and searched on the small table.
"Don't look, there's nothing on it except food." Fred said, "There are no nominations and no rewards."
"Although the Daily Prophet didn't mention it, everyone still guessed that it was you." George said.
"Ah this..."
Fred explained: "After Foley's crime was reported in the newspaper, everyone was guessing who the student was, but no one in the school admitted it..."
"You just happened to be lying in the school hospital and didn't go to class, so everyone put this matter on you." George took over what his brother said and continued.
"After all, he is just assisting the Aurors. This person is a first-year student, so no one will be surprised." The twins said together, "Now it's just up to you and Dumbledore to nod to confirm everyone's guesses."
Without any substantive reward, and everyone guessed it, Ada was initially set up as a target. Losing his wife and losing his troops made Ada a little unhappy.
It's definitely not Jin Gallon's problem, Ada just doesn't want to be a bright target. Her body was too brittle and could not withstand any wind and rain.
"Let them guess. I won't admit it anyway. This false name is useless. Having this name is troublesome."
"If I really gave you gold Galleons, I don't believe you would still lie here honestly." Fred said with a smile.
"Then I guess Ada has already run to find Professor McGonagall." George said with certainty.
Ada nodded and agreed with George. She said: "Of course, not just Professor McGonagall, I will definitely make trouble with Professor Dumbledore. I deserve everything, even if I lose a copper Knut!"
As expected of you! The twins' expressions were synchronized. They completely believed Ada's words. She was a witch who regarded gold galleons as her life.
"We caught the hidden Death Eaters just after taking office. Our Minister is extremely happy. His speech is today's headline." Fred flipped through the newspaper and said.
George said disdainfully: "Various newspapers and magazines also changed their tone and began to praise the new minister, as if they were not the ones who questioned Fudge before."
"What will happen if I become a minister in the future?" Ada made a joke instead of discussing the inconsistency of the Daily Prophet.
Who hasn't had the dream of becoming Prime Minister when they were young? It's like choosing whether to go to Cambridge or Oxford in the future. It's all bragging when you are young and ignorant.
"Then the Ministry of Magic will definitely have a minister with the shortest term and the most money-grubbing one." The twins attacked mercilessly.
Ada said dissatisfiedly: "Am I just a money-grubbing miser in your eyes?"
"Then let's put it another way?" Fred asked his brother for advice.
"Then put it another way." George responded.
"A good-looking miser who is greedy for money!" The twins continued to attack Ada without changing the medicine.
Ada keeps track of every dollar she spends, and the twins joke about it.
"If I were the Minister of Magic, I would definitely promote Mr. Weasley." Ada said, "How about the Senior Under-Secretary of the Ministry of Magic?"
"Percy will love you to death!"
“It’s impossible to say that I’ll be so moved that I’ll commit myself to you.”
After thinking about Percy's fangirling look, Ada shuddered unconsciously. Percy was so unlike his brothers that if it weren't for his freckles and fiery red hair, Ada would have thought that Percy was an adopted child by the kind-hearted Weasleys.
"Forget it then, I can't be the minister for Percy's sake." Ada said, pretending to be horrified.
"I heard someone talking about wanting to be the Minister for Magic, right?"
While Ada was joking with the twins, Dumbledore walked into the school doctor's office.
