Study Days at Hogwarts

The early morning sun was still rising from the sky, and the people who woke up from their sleep had no idea of ​​the series of major events that happened last night. They were enjoying breakfast as usual while flipping through the "Daily Prophet" delivered by the owl postman. Unprepared for breaking news:

Scrimgeour resigns as Minister for Magic.

This news, which was enough to shock countless people, suddenly appeared on the headlines of the Daily Prophet.

No one knows why Scrimgeour resigned, but it's definitely not normal.

While the entire wizarding world was still confused, the news that Piers Thicknesse had taken over as the new minister spread quickly.

People gradually realized what happened, but no one dared to come forward.

The coup was almost silent and made no waves.

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that Voldemort did not announce his usurpation of the throne, but hid behind the scenes to control the Ministry of Magic.

This is a very wise approach.

Even if Voldemort is not sitting in the minister's office, everyone agrees that he is the new minister of magic. As for Thicknesse, he is just a puppet used to handle daily affairs.

Another advantage of doing this is that it will not easily lead to open resistance from the entire British magical community, let alone lead to international disputes.

Of course, after Voldemort took control of the Ministry of Magic, he not only pushed the puppet to take over, but also extended his hand to Hogwarts. Regarding Snape being appointed as the principal of Hogwarts, it was only one step away. formal document.

As for who killed Dumbledore, the blame was of course placed on the famous Harry Potter. As the number one bad guy, his bounty was as high as 10,000 gold galleons.

Of course, Harry is not alone. He is not the only one who has a bounty on his head. Albert has also been on a bounty. Moreover, the bounty is as high as 20,000 gold galleons, which is beyond the reach of even the famous savior.

Those who died tragically in the burrow were all blamed on Albert. Notorious and murderous words could not describe Albert's brutality.

However, the guests who attended Bill's wedding all knew what happened, but no one dared to stand up and speak out for Albert.

On matters that mattered to their own life and death, they backed down.

However, the person involved did not think there was any problem with this. Instead, he looked at the wanted list sandwiched in the newspaper with great interest.

"So, he gave me the title of murderer, and the reward was only 20,000. This is too stingy!"

Albert, who was drinking afternoon tea, picked up the wanted list on the table and couldn't help but complain: "What was the reward for the mysterious man back then?"

"I remember that the highest in the past was ten thousand, and your twenty thousand has probably broken the record." Lee Jordan couldn't help but joked, "Why, you still want to go to the Ministry of Magic to surrender yourself and claim the Galleons for your reward." "

"That's a good idea." Albert curled his lips and said, "If they are willing to pay, I wouldn't mind dying once."

"Death once?"

Qiu Zhang, who was sitting next to Cedric, cast a doubtful look.

"Use the compound potion." Shanna said without thinking, "Disguise someone else as Albert, and directly pretend to be someone else to claim the reward."

"The compound potion has been around for a long time. It will be exposed after it expires."

"The biggest problem is that the British Ministry of Magic will not give this galleons." Albert shrugged. "Otherwise, he can give up his moral integrity and claim his bounty by himself. How can I say 20,000? Galleons are a lot of money.”

"You're not short of money."

Everyone rolled their eyes at Albert. Although they didn't know what Albert planned to do, there must be something he could do.

"Who says I'm not short of money?" Albert placed the tea cup under his reward order, "It takes Galleons to maintain the normal operation of this place. Do you naively think that the things you use appear out of thin air? ?”

Everyone suddenly fell silent.

None of them could be of much help in this matter.

There is no way, they are all a bunch of poor people who just graduated.

"It seems that we will have more work to do in the future." Li Jordan said suddenly.

"What job?"

"Robbing dark wizards." Lee Jordan said matter-of-factly. "If we encounter one in the future, not only will we have to take away their wands, but we will also have to empty their pockets."

A group of people actually discussed this matter seriously.

There is no way, who makes them have no money?

But it doesn't matter, they don't have it themselves, the enemy definitely has it.

The originally serious atmosphere suddenly became weird.

"However, what they are doing now is too blatant. Everyone must know that the mysterious man controls the Ministry of Magic." Angelina said doubtfully, "I think few people are fools, especially from the information in the "Prophet Newspaper" I saw new changes in the Ministry of Magic, even Harry Potter was put on a bounty, and so many Aurors witnessed Scrimgeour's death."

"Many people will actively hypnotize themselves and are unwilling to believe these so-called truths." Truman, who once worked at the Ministry of Magic, has more say than most people here. "As long as their lives and property are not threatened, most employees of the Ministry of Magic are actually I don’t care who I work for, since everyone is just working for the Ministry of Magic, and it doesn’t matter who is the Minister.”

"As for the Aurors, it's obviously impossible to expect them to risk their lives to tell the truth. You can't expect everyone to have the courage to stand up against the mysterious man like Kingsley."

"It's unbelievable. Many people must have experienced the last wizard war. How could they think that the mysterious man..." Qiu Zhang really couldn't understand.

"It's because many people have experienced the Wizarding War, so they all know how to work as facilitators to protect themselves and their families." Kenneth said sinisterly: "Isn't there still Harry Potter as the savior anyway? ?”

As a person who has been in the gray area, Kenneth Toller knows these things better than most people.

In fact, if Albert hadn't shown extraordinary strength, plus he was really good to his friends and was a worthy investment, Kenneth wouldn't even be sitting here, but would start thinking of various ways to make money for himself. .

"Then what should we do now?" Shanna asked sideways.

"Nothing to do, just wait patiently. The Ministry of Magic will soon issue some unfriendly regulations." Albert suddenly asked Lee Jordan: "By the way, how is the situation of Mr. and Mrs. Weasley?"

"It's not good. They were tortured by the Cruciatus Curse and were very weak. Now they can't go to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries for treatment. In the end, Professor McGonagall asked Madam Pomfrey to help with treatment." Lee Jordan tentatively said Asked: "How about you go and show it to them? I remember that you also have research in the field of treatment."

"Forget it, I'm only average at treatment." Albert shook his head.

"The potion you gave me last time to slow down the Cruciatus Curse was very effective." Cedric reminded, thinking that the Weasleys might also need that potion.

"I remember there should be another bottle in the medicine cabinet here. Fred and George must have taken it when they left."

"I think they may have been too anxious and forgot about it." Lee Jordan said suddenly.

"Then let Dobby take it to them. I remember that the effect of that thing should only be considered average." Albert looked at Cedric. He who had used potions before obviously had more say.

"It works quite well," Cedric said.

After asking Dobby to deliver medicine to the Weasley twins, Albert mentioned another reason for coming here today.

"I plan to hold a defense association gathering this weekend to discuss recent events." Albert turned to Lee Jordan and said, "Also, I need our radio station to report on recent events."

"everything?"

"In all things, people have the right to know the truth, the unforgivable crimes committed by the mysterious man and his minions, and the news of the rescue of the Weasleys and others." Albert thought for a while and continued. , "We also have to remind Muggle wizards to be alert to changes in the situation. I believe it won't be long before the Ministry of Magic starts to persecute Muggle wizards. They must be warned in advance to avoid being caught off guard."

"Well, in the end we need to open a new branch for other underage wizards to stay temporarily."

"Isn't it possible here?"

Cedric didn't understand why Albert went to all the trouble to do that.

"No, there are traces on the underage wizards, and I don't want them to be exposed here." Albert tapped the table with his fingers, "We need to transform a safe house suitable for habitation to accommodate them. Not only can this be used to divert the death-eating To attract the attention of the gangsters and make them think that is our headquarters, we need everyone’s help.”
