Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 1644 A War Without Winners (Ninety-four)

Although Kingsley did not want to make a big fuss, the news that the Weasleys were attacked and even their house was mercilessly burned down by dark wizards could not be concealed in the end. The news appeared on the front page of the Daily Prophet the day after the incident, along with the heavy news that Harry Potter was about to marry Ginny Weasley.

After seeing the headline of the Daily Prophet, Ron threw the newspaper on the table fiercely, and almost got his nose crooked because the writer of this report was Rita Skeeter.

As we all know, Rita Skeeter can always grasp the selling points of the news well and arouse everyone's interest in reading.

So, the whole report spent a lot of words on the upcoming marriage of Harry and Ginny, and also emphasized that Ginny was still underage, and did not forget to express concern about this abnormal wedding, calling on the Ministry of Magic to actively intervene, which was completely a gimmick, and the attack on the Weasleys was thrown aside.

This report undoubtedly caused great trouble to Harry. When he went to the Ministry of Magic to report, he was faced with the curious eyes of many colleagues. Many people even took the initiative to congratulate Harry and asked when they would get married.

Compared with Harry, Ginny's situation was much better. The atmosphere in Avalon where she was was relatively friendly, and she did not need to bear the malice brought by the newspaper.

Moreover, Rita Skeeter's behavior also made everyone very annoyed.

They hoped that the attack on the Weasley family by dark wizards would increase everyone's vigilance against dark wizards, rather than diverting everyone's attention through the gossip about Harry and Ginny.

For this reason, while sitting down to rest, everyone briefly discussed the matter again, and they all agreed that Rita Skeeter should be punished.

Find an opportunity to give the other party a good beating?

Turn Rita Skeeter into a werewolf, ruin her life, and make her lose her job as a reporter forever?

One after another, vicious suggestions were put forward, but they were quickly rejected one by one, because no one was considered cruel and vicious.

But there are still several that have been retained, ready to teach Rita Skeeter a lesson after the incident has passed.

After all, the most important thing now is to explain the matter clearly to prevent it from continuing to ferment, and at least guide the wind in a direction that is favorable to them.

...

That night, a group of people dressed as dark wizards secretly visited Rita Skeeter's home under the cover of darkness.

After everyone left, Rita Skeeter's home was set on fire, and the creepy Dark Mark was suspended on the roof.

As for Rita Skeeter herself, she was transformed into a humanoid creature with obvious sow features by someone using transformation magic, and was hung upside down in front of the burning house.

If you don't know, you might think they are roasting a sow.

The biggest suspects in the whole incident are undoubtedly Harry and Ginny, who just published the newspaper, but they all have good reasons to prove that they have nothing to do with this matter.

For example, working overtime, such as becoming a guest of the Wizard Lookout.

Ginny, who appeared on the radio as a guest of Wizard Watch, talked about her relationship with Harry and the wedding that attracted much attention without any hesitation.

Of course, Ginny also answered the questions about "underage marriage" and directly dropped the bombshell that she was pregnant.

?????55.?????

"Many of the companions who bravely stood up against Voldemort were not sure whether they could survive the Second Wizarding War... Even when everyone realized it, Harry had already arranged his funeral. He had long been prepared to take Voldemort to die together... As for the specific reason, no one knows. I guess Dumbledore and Harry know some secrets that ordinary people don't know."

"In fact, it was Albert's suggestion to leave a child for Harry. I think he should also know the reason. He said that Harry should be left with hope. No matter how slim the hope is, there is a chance to help Harry continue to live."

"Even if there is only that pitiful glimmer of hope, I am willing to try. Even if Harry dies in the end, at least his child is still there, and the proof of his life is still there, and the Potter family will not disappear because of this."

The story of Ginny and Harry touched countless listeners, allowing them to sincerely send their blessings to this young man and woman who finally got together and their unborn child, and directly reversed the negative impact of Rita Skeeter's newspaper.

However, the most surprising thing was that when Ginny talked about the attack on her family by the dark wizard, the latest news suddenly broke into the interview: the Dark Mark appeared on the roof of Rita Skeeter's house.

Rita Skeeter herself was not killed by the dark wizard who broke in, but was turned into a sow and hung upside down in the air, roasted by the fire of the burning house.

Fortunately, the Aurors arrived in time after receiving the news, and Rita Skeeter was prevented from becoming a roasted suckling pig.

The fact that the reporter herself became the front-page news of the next day was undoubtedly quite interesting. Many people suspected that this was a revenge by Harry or the Weasley family, but the interesting thing was that all signs showed that this matter had nothing to do with the young couple who were about to get married.

After all, Ginny was a guest at the Wizard Watch Station, and there were countless people who listened to the Wizard Watch Station broadcast to testify for her. And Harry Potter was still working overtime in the Ministry of Magic, and no one would doubt that this matter had anything to do with him. Especially Rita Skeeter was rescued by Harry and other Aurors.

Therefore, it is meaningless for anyone to suspect them.

In fact, this matter has nothing to do with Harry and Ginny.

Because the whole thing was actually done by Fred and George, as a revenge and lesson for Rita Skeeter. On the surface, the remaining Death Eaters are naturally blamed. After all, there was a precedent of attacking and burning the Weasley family before, and now it seems that it is not surprising that they burned down Rita Skeeter's house.

As for why Rita Skeeter was turned into a sow, we can only ask those dark wizards what they think.

Rita Skeeter, who was finally rescued, seemed to be greatly frightened in addition to the large area of ​​burns. She was directly admitted to the intensive care unit of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Diseases, and had no chance to write a headline for her story.

This dramatic story quickly attracted everyone's attention. People no longer paid attention to Harry and Ginny's wedding, but were discussing where Rita Skeeter had offended the Death Eaters to be retaliated in this way.

As for what the "pure bloods" who took the blame think, that is not something we should pay attention to.
