Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 986 Wrong Judgment

After leaving the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore hurried to Mrs. Figg's house to learn about the specific situation at that time.

From Mrs. Figg's memory, Dumbledore saw two dementors attacking Harry and his cousin Dudley. This made him relieved, but at the same time he began to worry.

Has the Ministry of Magic gradually lost control of the Dementors?

This is not a good sign.

Once the dementors fall to Voldemort's side, the prisoners of Azkaban will be released, and the entire wizarding world will be in chaos.

However, Fudge just didn't want to face these problems.

After chatting with Mrs. Figg for a while and saying that new arrangements would be made for her safety, she asked Professor McGonagall to continue waiting for the Order of the Phoenix member who would replace her.

Although this would bring some inconvenience to Mrs. Figg, it would protect her life and at the same time continue to monitor Harry to prevent him from leaving his uncle's house and doing something irrational.

It is now imperative to transfer Harry to the Order of the Phoenix headquarters.

Dumbledore left the matter to Alastor. It was not suitable for him to contact Harry in person at this time, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Harry.

He was well aware that Harry had a special connection with Voldemort.

And this special connection is likely to come from Voldemort's Horcrux fragments.

Although Dumbledore had no proof yet, he was well aware that the connection existed and was strengthened by Voldemort's resurrection.

Once Voldemort becomes aware of the existence of this connection, he will enter Harry's mind, control and mislead Harry's thoughts.

And his relationship with Harry will make Voldemort's desire stronger.

Dumbledore knew very well that Voldemort wanted to deal with himself more than dealing with Harry.

He believed that Voldemort would seize the opportunity to use Harry to spy on him, and even try to control Harry against himself.

Dumbledore couldn't think of any better solution for the time being, and a series of recent events had made him exhausted.

People cannot help but accept old age.

Hopefully Severus could bring him some useful information.

Judging from the time in Spain, Voldemort would not attack Harry rashly and completely expose himself to everyone's sight.

Moreover, if he hadn't done it, the reaction speed over there would definitely not have been that fast, and Voldemort wouldn't have enough manpower.

Assuming Voldemort didn't do it this time, then...

"Harry's trial I'm afraid..."

Dumbledore walked back and forth in the headmaster's office. Although he now had the evidence to turn defeat into victory, the Ministry of Magic was unlikely to distort the facts, but if Fudge really wanted to expel Harry, he would definitely use other conspiracy methods.

"politician!"

Dumbledore's eyes flashed with disgust, of course he knew Fudge's plan.

But, does that really work?

Dumbledore remembered Albert's prediction that Fudge would be ousted by next summer.

Although Dumbledore himself is not very willing to believe in prophecies, given that many of Albert's prophecies have come true, he is still willing to believe a little bit, what if it comes true?

At least, Dumbledore actually hoped in his heart that Fudge would step down and let Amelia Bones take over to reverse the current situation.

As long as the Ministry of Magic maintains a tough attitude towards Voldemort, the situation will improve significantly, and he does not need to put a lot of thought into these things.

Was he wrong?

We should agree to Mr. Anderson and work together to promote Amelia Bones to the position of Minister of Magic.

To be honest, Dumbledore really didn't want to interfere in politics, especially these sensitive issues.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the principal's office, and Professor McGonagall hurriedly walked into the principal's office.

"Albus, are they really planning to expel Harry?" Professor McGonagall asked.

"It's not as bad as you think," Dumbledore reassured. "We have found evidence to prove that Harry used the Patronus Charm solely for self-protection."

"You know, that's not what I'm talking about..."

"Ahem."

Suddenly there was a slight coughing sound in the principal's office, and both of them looked in the direction of the sound.

"Here is your news. My great-great-grandson asked me to tell you that the dementors who attacked Harry were most likely sent by people from the Ministry of Magic." Phineas told Dumbledore that Sirius asked him to tell him. Content.

"Ministry of Magic?" Professor McGonagall frowned and asked, "Does Sirius have any evidence?"

"Don't ask me, because I don't know either. If you have any questions, I suggest you ask Sirius yourself. However, I suspect that guy doesn't know it himself." After Phineas finished speaking, he fell completely silent.

Dumbledore vaguely guessed the reason why Sirius said this.

"Where is Snape? Is there any news about him?" Professor McGonagall remembered that they had an undercover agent.

"Not yet, but I think it will be soon." Dumbledore was waiting for news from Snape.

There are actually only a few possibilities for this matter, the most likely of which is that Voldemort's people sent people to attack Harry. The other one was made by people from the Ministry of Magic.

Other than that, the other probabilities are not high.

At this moment, a ball of light penetrated the window glass and broke directly into the principal's office.

Snape's voice came from the light ball:

Not the Dark Lord, but that doesn't exclude others from making their own decisions.

Professor McGonagall looked at the disappearing Patronus, and then looked at Dumbledore.

"What do you think?"

"If it was done by Voldemort or one of his Death Eaters, I think Severus will investigate it." Dumbledore stared at the place where the Patronus disappeared thoughtfully.

"What if not?" Professor McGonagall felt that this matter was less like killing Harry and more like wanting Harry to be expelled.

At least this was the feeling given to her by the Ministry of Magic. In order to defeat Dumbledore, Cornelius Fudge was now using any despicable means.

As for Sirius's speculation, or it is likely that this speculation came from Albert, otherwise Sirius would definitely tell it to the Order of the Phoenix meeting instead of letting the portrait convey the news to Dumbledore privately.

Professor McGonagall, who was reluctant to believe in divination, had to admit Albert's accomplishments in divination. Various signs showed that Albert could indeed predict the future to a large extent.

"Do you suspect Fudge did this?" Dumbledore turned to look at Professor McGonagall.

"Yes, it's either Fudge or the people around him." Professor McGonagall said simply.

"Probably not. I talked to Fudge and he didn't know about it. To be honest, Fudge is not a profound master of Occlumency. I don't think he can deceive me."

This is where Dumbledore got confused.
