Hogwarts: I am Voldemort
Chapter 421 Fireside Chat
"Welcome to Fireside Chats, where we invite the fearless Minister Crouch to talk to him about the future of England."
Rita Skeeter, a former reporter and now the host of the [Fireside Chats] column, said on TV wearing colorful clothes.
"She's not formal enough like this."
Mrs. Weasley complained dissatisfiedly while knitting a sweater and watching TV.
"Well, Molly, I know you have a grudge against her for reporting on our poverty, but that's in the past, isn't it?"
Mr. Weasley comforted his wife while keeping his eyes on the TV.
He is one of the few people in the wizarding world who can best adapt to these changes.
The reason may be related to the fact that he is the head of the Office for the Prohibition of Misuse of Muggle Items, but more likely, it is that he is interested in these novel Muggle things.
"Thank you for the invitation, Rita, and thank you to Gunter TV for providing this venue so that I can chat with you up close."
Minister Crouch said on television, looking older than before.
Not far behind him, Percy Weasley was sitting holding banknotes, which made Mrs. Weasley forget about complaining and even stopped knitting.
"Percy seems to have lost a little weight. When we last talked on the phone, I should have reminded him to pay attention to his diet. Damn it, I'm still not used to that thing. I forgot to say a lot of things."
Mrs. Weasley glanced at the red telephone beside her and said to her husband.
"He's not thin, Molly. Maybe the camera distorted his appearance," said Mr. Weasley. "I saw him two days ago and I thought he was a little fatter."
"Really, then you remind him that it's time to go home and see me?" Mrs. Weasley looked at her husband and said, "He won't want to come back since he has his own house, right?"
"Molly."
Mr. Weasley reluctantly looked away from the TV and looked at his wife, "He was here ten days ago, and he was really busy."
"snort."
Molly snorted angrily, started knitting again, and stopped talking to her husband.
Mr. Weasley also looked at the TV, and at this time a guest on the TV was asking a pointed question.
"After the return of the Dark Lord, Minister Crouch, are you sure that he did not harm anyone else?"
This question made Rita Skeeter on the TV a little excited, but the camera only flashed over her and soon cut to a close-up of Minister Crouch.
"I'm pretty sure he didn't do that. Sir, if you follow the Daily Prophet, you will find that there are reports about his whereabouts every day, which are even more detailed than the reports on my whereabouts."
Minister Crouch's voice was cold, as was his usual style.
Only through his words and actions, it is difficult for people to see his true thoughts, but it can be heard from the content of his words that he is concerned about the Dark Lord.
"Is this your order?" Rita Skeeter asked, holding the microphone.
"No, Rita, Aurors don't work for the Daily Prophet, and neither does the Ministry of Magic. This is information leaked by the Dark Lord on his own initiative, from his Secretariat." Crouch replied.
"You mentioned Aurors, Minister, does that mean you are spying on him?"
Rita Skeeter said excitedly, as if she had caught a great news point, "Does the Dark Lord know you did this?"
The host's question aroused the curiosity of countless viewers in front of the TV, and they were also looking forward to the answer from the Minister of Magic.
"It was secret at first, but it was soon discovered. However, the Dark Lord did not harm them. He also invited them into Gunter Castle and let them get close to supervise him." The answer of the Minister of Magic surprised most people. unexpected.
"You mean..." Rita Skeeter was also surprised, "He didn't drive those people away, and even took the initiative to let them see him?"
"Yes, and I also invited those people to join one..."
Crouch frowned and thought for a moment, then turned to look at Percy behind him, "What's your name?"
"The crew invited them to join the crew as guest actors. I heard they did a good job." Percy replied immediately.
"Yes, that's it, Rita, the Aurors are doing fine there," Minister Crouch said with a shrug.
There was still no emotion on his face, and it was difficult for people to guess his true thoughts.
"They were also in [Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]?"
Rita Skeeter said in surprise, "They also invited me, Minister Crouch, will you participate?"
"Not at the moment, Rita Skeeter, maybe to Muggles it's magical, but I don't think wizards would find it interesting, I mean..."
Minister Crouch looked at Percy again, and it was obvious that he really didn't know much about Muggle things.
"Movies, that's what they call it," Percy said.
"Yes, movies." Minister Crouch shrugged and said, "Who would think that a person using magic in a box is interesting?"
His words were not widely recognized by people.
After all, the people who are currently watching him say this are watching through this box.
"Then it seems to you that the Dark Lord is completely safe and sound, right, Minister?" Rita Skeeter asked again.
"It seems so at the moment, including those Death Eaters, we also have surveillance."
Minister Crouch frowned. He was puzzled that these people were not doing anything, but obviously this idea was not easy to express on TV.
"Then do you think, Minister, are they planning a bigger move, or are they really going to change their past wrong ways and reintegrate into the wizarding world?" Rita Skeeter asked.
This is also an issue that has attracted widespread attention. After all, the quiet Dark Lord still has enough intimidation power.
Moreover, people are really afraid that he will hold back his ultimate move.
"Actually, he has been taking action, such as Gaunt TV. You and I are talking here because of him. Moreover, the First Decree is also being implemented. Many wizards have already taken over the house, and their feedback is pretty good. ."
Minister Crouch was silent for a moment and then spoke again, "I hope this kind of peace can last. I don't want the situation like more than ten years ago to happen again."
Rita Skeeter nodded. While expressing her agreement, she also implicitly praised the convenience and vitality these changes have brought to the wizarding world.
Minister Crouch said "haha" twice, not even bothering to say a word.
Of course he knew that Gaunt TV would put in a good word for Voldemort, but as long as Voldemort was still under his supervision and as long as everything was peaceful, he didn't want to make anything clear.
Let the lion sleep, or wake up the sleep-deprived lion, this is not a multiple choice question.
