Study Days at Hogwarts

"What are you going to do with these four guys?"

George pointed his wand at the four unlucky guys who had been knocked down. In fact, they were frustrated by the loss. Before they could react, they were tricked by Albert and others.

There was no way, this was Hogwarts, they never imagined that they would be attacked, and what was even more insidious was that Albert kept using Black's affairs to attract their attention.

"Each person reapplied the stun spell and handed over their wands." Albert waved his wand and directly conjured a pile of chains to tie the four of them tightly, looking like grasshoppers tied to a straw rope.

Hermione was stunned by Albert's operation. She simply couldn't understand how Albert brought down four elite Aurors in an instant, and why did Albert attack the staff of the Ministry of Magic?

"Is this really good?" George was obviously worried.

"It's nothing bad. Don't forget, these bastards just released dementors to attack us." Albert's voice was very cold, like the cold wind blowing in winter, which made their hearts tremble, "put away your hypocrisy Kindness, if we don’t know the Patronus Charm, do you know what will happen to you? Having your soul sucked away by the dementors and turning into a walking zombie, you probably won’t have time to listen to my nonsense here.”

"They should..."

Hermione's body trembled slightly, unwilling to believe that things would go in the direction Albert said.

"Don't tell me that you should. Since those dementors are swarming over, it means that the Ministry of Magic has temporarily lost control of the dementors. It is normal for a few unlucky people to have their souls sucked away by the dementors. "Albert turned to look at Hermione and said, "You can still stand here now, mostly because my patron saint is strong enough to protect you."

"It's good that you are still very innocent, but when it comes to the world of adults outside of school, your ideas are childish and almost laughable. I can tell you clearly that if you die here, don't expect the Ministry of Magic to apologize much. , they will just find an excuse to get over it. Even if a dozen Muggle wizards die, it won't cause much trouble in the wizarding world, and Fudge doesn't even need to take the blame and resign." Albert's tone was full of emotion. Ridiculing, "I hope this experience will make you more mature and you will be able to pay less expensive tuition fees when you become an adult."

Hermione was speechless by Albert's words. These words also had a great impact on her. She found that she had taken it for granted before.

"You should all have noticed that Snape is not among them. Who knows if these people are really Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, rather than a group of kittens and puppies disguised to steal our bounty, or Black's accomplices. "Albert continued to blame them.

"Harry, Hermione, Ron, Albert, where are you?"

At this moment, Hagrid's shout came from not far away.

"start."

Albert lowered his voice and spoke a code word to keep the two hidden people on alert. Then he raised his wand and fired a dazzling ball of light into the sky. The dark night was instantly illuminated by white light.

Not far away, Hagrid, Dumbledore and several Ministry of Magic personnel were coming here, and Albert actually spotted Snape's figure.

"Mr. Anderson, Hagrid said you captured Sirius Black?" Dumbledore's eyes fell on the solid cage and he couldn't help but frown, but he quickly moved to Albert.

"Yeah, I caught Blake, that's the guy."

Albert used his wand to move the unconscious Blake in front of several people and inspect the goods for them.

"Oh, my God, you caught Black, you really caught Black." Minister of Magic Fudge looked at the unconscious Black, his mouth wide open in shock.

The Aurors had spent nearly a year failing to catch Black, but he was caught by a student like this. Fudge had even thought about how the Daily Prophet would ridicule the Ministry of Magic's incompetence.

"Can anyone explain what happened to them?" A wizard with brown hair and gold-rimmed glasses noticed the Aurors who were tightly bound by chains.

"Oh, you mean the four dark wizards." Albert unceremoniously blamed them for the dark wizards.

"Dark wizard?" the wizard repeated.

"Yes, these guys actually drove hundreds of dementors to attack us. Look, Harry over there fainted after being attacked by the dementors." There was a faint smile on the corner of Albert's mouth. With a shallow smile: "Later, they claimed to be Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, but they could not provide any evidence to prove that they were Aurors. They also wanted to take Sirius Black away from me forcibly. I suspect that they are actually Black's Comrades, just put them down first. Just when they were about to be interrogated, you came, and they were handed over to you for interrogation. Please make sure to catch all these dark wizards."

Cornelius Fudge stared at Albert dumbfounded, and then moved his eyes to Dumbledore next to him, as if he couldn't believe what he heard?

Dark wizard?

How come an Auror from the Ministry of Magic becomes a dark wizard when he puts his mouth into someone's mouth?

"I think this is a misunderstanding?" Fudge said dryly.

"I don't think so." Albert glanced at Fudge and said to Dumbledore: "They released a bunch of dementors, more than the number of dementors that attacked the Quidditch pitch last time. If it weren't for me, If the Patronus Charm is used well, I'm afraid all you will see when you come here is a few soulless bodies. With all due respect, if you tell me now that this is a misunderstanding, you are definitely not joking."

"He's lying."

Facing Albert's severe accusation, Fudge said angrily: "If there are hundreds of dementors, how can he be safe?"

"I have evidence."

Albert took out a crystal ball from his pocket and threw it directly to Dumbledore. This thing was the evidence that Lee Jordan had just secretly recorded.

Dumbledore reached out and took the crystal ball thrown by Albert, the corners of his mouth trembling slightly, of course he knew what it was.

The crystal ball replayed the scene where the Dementors had just attacked. It was so powerful that ordinary wizards could not resist it even if they knew the Patronus Charm. However, after a white griffon appeared, they finally defeated the difficult one. Earth Dementors.

the truth.

Sometimes it is so cruel, so cruel that it is unacceptable.

Fudge's face turned from white to red, and then turned into an ugly purple. Even the faces of the two Aurors next to him were ugly. They never expected that they would actually put their faces in front of each other and let the other party slap them, and they were even slapped and swollen by the other party.

"Apologize."

"What?"

Fudge looked at Albert in shock, as if he heard something unbelievable.

"I think the Ministry of Magic owes us an apology. Especially Harry, who almost had his soul sucked away by those dementors just now, and almost died." Albert raised his wand a little, and the crystal ball It immediately flew out of Dumbledore's hand, fell back into his hand, and was stuffed back into his pocket.

"Mr. Anderson."

Dumbledore frowned slightly, he could see that Albert was not going to let it go.

As for why, Dumbledore actually knew it very well.

The conflict between the two parties was obviously caused by Fudge deliberately blocking Albert's title, and Albert was not a guy to be trifled with, otherwise Huttok Dagworth wouldn't have been so aggrieved and came to find him in the first place. He adjusted the relationship between the two.

But it's different now. Dumbledore knows exactly how many people are standing behind Albert. If Albert really wants to cause trouble, Fudge will definitely be in bad luck. Just look at the crystal ball and you will know. How well prepared was he?

"Dementors do pose a great hidden danger." Dumbledore gave Fudge a warning look, "Now that Black has been caught, I think they can be removed from the school?"

"Oh, yes, Black, I almost forgot about it after being interrupted like this." Fudge wanted to reveal what had just happened, but he still couldn't bear to apologize to Albert and others.

"Then let's talk about Blake. Since I caught Blake and you plan to take him away, shouldn't you give me Blake's bounty?" Albert raised his wand and stopped the man who was planning to go. Former Auror.

"We didn't bring Galleons." Fudge said angrily, "Wait..."

"Professor Snape, didn't you tell me what I said?" Albert interrupted directly, "I remember I reminded you."

"I told you." Albert's question made Snape's expression darker.

"Since you didn't bring any money, you can't take Blake away."

Before Dumbledore could speak, Albert continued: "If the Ministry of Magic loses Black, my bounty will be gone."

"Ministry of Magic..." An Auror was about to speak, but was interrupted again.

"I have not forgotten that just a while ago, a hippogriff escaped under the eyes of the Ministry of Magic." Albert unceremoniously poked the pain point of the Ministry of Magic, "A beast can escape. Let alone a cunning guy like Blake."

"It was just an accident."

"If the Ministry of Magic loses Black, and you tell me it was an accident, who should I ask to compensate for my loss?" Albert asked, "I'm sorry, in view of the accident that happened to the Ministry of Magic a while ago, I have to pay for my property. consider."

Fudge's face turned purple, but he couldn't refute it, because what the other party said was completely reasonable. For ten thousand galleons, anyone would think twice about losing it in an accident. The worst thing was that the Ministry of Magic had a precedent.

"If you want to take Blake away, but you don't want to pay the bounty of Galleons immediately, then someone must vouch for it, and sign and leave a record to prevent someone from deceiving me and directly deducting my bounty in the event of an accident."

"The credibility of the Ministry of Magic..."

"The credibility of the Ministry of Magic is very problematic." Albert interrupted directly, "Many people wrote to me a while ago, congratulating me on winning the Wizengamot British Youth Representative, but it seems that the Ministry of Magic does not intend to award the award. Give me."

"Nonsense."

"A lot of friends from the Wizengamot and the Ministry of Magic wrote to me and told me. I didn't believe it at first, but if you get a dozen letters, you have to believe it even if you don't believe it. After all, I don't think they need to collectively Lie and tease me, everyone is very busy, no one will be so bored." Albert suddenly showed a smile.

George dared to pat his chest and promise that he had never seen such a smile on Albert's face, which made him feel cold in his heart.

"After you hand over Black to the Ministry of Magic, you have completed the bounty, and we will naturally pay you the bounty. Since you don't believe the Ministry of Magic, let Dumbledore be a witness, but the bounty amount is a little Big, we still need to go through the process." Fudge didn't dare to talk about the topic just now. Albert's words explained a lot of problems. He had a lot of friends in the Ministry of Magic and the Wizengamot.

Fudge didn't even have to think about it. If Albert really had no friends in the Wizengamot, the title of British Youth Representative of the Wizengamot would not be forced through.

Fudge actually didn't want to continue chatting with Albert. He had been deflated tonight, as if someone kept stuffing shit into his mouth, which made him extremely uncomfortable. Moreover, since Albert could record the scene of the dementors' attack, , why can't they record their conversation?

"Let's talk about other things next!" Albert ignored Fudge and pointed to the cage next to him: "Tonight, Professor Lupine ran out without drinking the wolfsbane potion. I can only temporarily It’s trapped here.”

Albert raised his wand and waved it gently, and the original cage began to dissolve, revealing the transformed werewolf inside. The angry roar immediately rang in everyone's ears, frightening Fudge and his party to the point where they almost collapsed from the spot.

"Thanks to you, there was no accident." Dumbledore said gently.

"I have a spell that can restore Professor Lupine to his original form," Albert continued: "But this spell has not been tried on werewolves, and I don't know exactly what effect it will have."

"It's the Restoration Curse. I've heard people mention this spell. Give it a try, Mr. Anderson." Dumbledore looked at Albert with interest. He knew that everything tonight was under Albert's control. , he believed that Albert could settle everything easily.

"Can't you?" Fudge couldn't help but ask Dumbledore.

"It is said that the humanoid restoration spell was invented by Mr. Anderson." Dumbledore explained gently: "The effect of the spell is to restore the human form of the werewolf who transformed during the full moon."

"Is there really such a spell?"

The two Aurors around Fudge were very shocked. They all knew what this meant. If there was such a spell, the threat of werewolves would be greatly reduced.

Albert raised his wand and pointed it at the werewolf in the cage, and began to cast the humanoid restoration spell. This spell was a bit complicated. Finally, everyone saw a blue light hitting the werewolf in the cage. The originally violent werewolf suddenly twisted in pain, and soon he His body twitched violently and returned to Professor Lupine's original appearance, but the huge pain seemed to make Professor Lupine fall into a semi-conscious state.

"A great spell." Dumbledore looked at Lupine, nodded and asked, "I wonder if you can take it out and share it with others."

"Of course."

"The magic world will remember your contribution." The wizard with tawny hair and gold-rimmed glasses next to Fudge said to Albert.

"One last thing. As far as I know, the reason Professor Lupine took the risk is because he found traces of Peter Pettigrew and thought he was still alive." Albert said meaningfully.

Fudge was about to yell, but he finally held back. The series of things that happened tonight taught him to shut up.

"Is there any evidence?" Dumbledore asked easily.

"Well, this is the evidence. You can force him to reveal his true form. If he is an Animagus, his name should be Peter Pettigrew. If not, then what Professor Lupine said should be false."

With that said, Albert handed the cage to Dumbledore and said, "Try it. I don't know how to force Animagus back into human form."

Fudge looked at the rat in the metal cage that Albert handed to Dumbledore, and his mind went blank for a moment.
