The card draw starts in Azkaban

"No, it's not what you think!"

Fudge panted and said: "It's the centaurs. Umbridge entered the Forbidden Forest and was detained by the centaurs."

"Centaurs?"

Hearing about the centaur, Mr. Consultant also felt a little numb in his scalp. If this matter is forced to be pulled, it can indeed be connected with the poor management of Hogwarts.

But the problem is that this time, their opponents are centaurs.

Centaurs are also a group of difficult creatures. More importantly, unlike creatures like werewolves, centaurs are also intelligent creatures nominally restricted by the Ministry of Magic. Like werewolves and ghouls, they are all controlled by the Office of Beasts.

Organizational constraints, but unlike werewolves and ghouls, many wizards have no ill feelings toward centaurs.

Horsemen and wizards do not interfere with each other.

It is almost impossible to ask the wizard to start a war with the remaining centaurs.

At least Fudge couldn't do it.

His prestige is too low.

Because of Umbridge, the wizards would not be so stupid, and getting rid of the centaurs would have no benefit for them.

The Forbidden Forest is the territory of Hogwarts. Even if the centaurs are killed, they cannot live in the Forbidden Forest.

No one wants to take action.

Mr. Consultant has a headache.

It's exactly what Fudge said, it's troublesome.

Umbridge, how come she was detained by the centaurs?

This idiot.

For a moment, the consultant also wanted to ruin it.

These guys are full of martial virtue, but they won't appear in the Forbidden Forest.

How did Umbridge do it?

Horse people do not want to be involved in the world of wizards, and they will not actively provoke humans, but this does not mean that horse people are easy to communicate with.

"What should we do?"

Fudge looked at the consultant with some despair and wanted the consultant to suggest a method that he could use.

"Let's negotiate, minister, see what they need, and we'll try to meet their demands."

The consultant said helplessly: "Also, we need to suppress this news. You personally lead people and quickly go to Hogwarts to negotiate, and strive to ask the centaurs to release Ms. Umbridge within half a day, and

The impact and losses are minimized.”

"Oh, yes, yes, yes, okay, I'll go right away."

Fudge said in confusion. He was extremely panicked. Now, let alone the advice of his advisers, even if Mr. Arthur Weasley gave him a bad idea, he would probably be able to implement it honestly.

Fudge is clueless at this time.

So when Mr. Arthur Weasley went to work, he saw a "large number" of Aurors, Strikers and Department of Magical Creatures officers disappearing into the Ministry of Magic through the Floo Network. The entire Ministry of Magic,

Empty and empty.

Mr. Arthur Weasley also saw the leader, Minister of Magic Fudge, who looked very anxious and walked so fast that he wanted to fly.

"Oh, it seems like something big happened in our magical world. Look at Fudge's embarrassed look. What did they do?"

Arthur Weasley found his old friend in a familiar way and said with black tea in hand.

"you do not know?"

The old friend also calmly said: "They went to Hogwarts?"

"To Hogwarts?"

The relaxed expression on Arthur Weasley's face disappeared, and he whispered: "What happened at Hogwarts?"

The old friend said: "The devil knows what happened. Do you remember that not long ago, Fudge forcibly suppressed Ms. Bernsch, ignored her opinions, and sent the dementors guarding Azkaban from the Ministry of Magic to Hogwarts again?

Anything else?"

Arthur Weasley took a breath.

"Dementor, something happened?"

His hands and feet felt cold.

Everyone opposed the sending of additional dementors at the time, but unfortunately, the opposition was ineffective.

But that time, Fudge also suffered enough. Fudge is now completely unable to mobilize nine-tenths of the staff of the Ministry of Magic. The entire Ministry of Magic is completely paralyzed.

Even the directors of various departments have begun to collectively mess up. Only an upright lady like Ms. Bernsch is still working in accordance with the law.

The rest of the ministers did not even come to their offices, or when they came to their offices, they locked the door directly, so that those working below could not find their superiors if they wanted to report things.

When the subordinates saw this, they all fell ill.

When Fudge did this, the parents didn't rush to Fudge's office with their wands in hand and cast him a curse.

The only reason is - Hogwarts has Dumbledore.

The person he wants to bring down the most is his biggest savior.

Most parents believe that with Dumbledore at Hogwarts, there is no need to worry even if there are so many dementors.

The little wizards will be fine.

But it's one thing to know that the little wizards are fine. His own children are being used as bargaining chips, and the other wizard parents have also shown a state of "non-violence and non-cooperation". For example, this time, Fudge mobilized the Department of Magical Law Enforcement to demand

Not Ms. Burnsch - Arthur Weasley would say that Ms. Burnsch is too fair and just and acts according to the law. After breaking up with Fudge, she could have dragged Fudge away. If Ms. Burnsch hadn't spoken, Fudge would have been beaten five times in a row.

There are not even enough strikers in the Ministry of Magic.

As for the Aurors, in addition to Delis, there were two unknown Aurors who went out with him. There were a total of three agents from the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures.

Just like that, it can be regarded as an overwhelming success.

Where are the remaining people?

The striker went on patrol.

The Auror is sick.

The officers of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures are out on field duty. Anyway, there are only a few people in the Ministry of Magic.

Facing Fudge's anxious questioning, the person in charge remained calm.

Sorry, Minister, there are only a few people here. Minister, do you want us to go or not?

Fudge gritted his teeth.

go.

I want both.

Just taking these few people out, the Ministry of Magic was empty.

Arthur Weasley was quite an old man and gave Fudge face. At least he came to fish and didn't get sick. "The Ministry of Magic has been suffering from influenza recently," Fudge said when he came to see Barty Crouch Sr.

Old Barty Crouch said lazily: "Recently, most of the operators have to stay in bed and rest at home."

A large number of people didn't even give the minister face.

Therefore, the current Ministry of Magic is either an old man like Arthur who does not take a break, fishes at work, and chats with old friends, or there are insiders like Bertha Jorkins who pass on information to others, and the rest

People have their own means and miss work and school.

Fudge took away the people, and the Ministry of Magic was empty.

When the old friend heard Arthur's question, he knew what he was worried about. He smiled and said: "Okay, okay, don't worry. Arthur, I'd better reveal some news to you. Don't say it's me."

Don't tell anyone else.

This time, something happened not to the children at Hogwarts, but to Umbridge."

When Arthur heard this, he felt completely relieved.

Something happened to Umbridge.

That's no problem.

When something happened to Umbridge, everyone was happy to hear about it.

Mr. Arthur even laughed out loud.

But soon, Mr. Arthur saw several "vacation" Aurors appearing at the Ministry of Magic. The leader was Scrimgeour, surrounded by his Aurors.

Scrimgeour, the director of the Auror Office, was also one of the people who was forced to take leave. He was followed by Tonks and several Aurors. They came to the Ministry of Magic, went straight to the Auror Office, opened the warehouse, and took out

The magic items inside.

No one stopped them.

"Wow."

This time, Arthur was really nervous. He came over to strike up a conversation and wanted to ask what happened.

"Nothing happened, Weasley, don't worry."

Scrimgeour, wearing a gray coat and hat, stood aside and dismissed Arthur.

Tonks stood beside him.

"Big news."

Scrimgeour said that it was the same as but different from Barty Crouch Sr. Scrimgeour was a general when Barty Crouch Sr. fought against the mysterious man, and his qualifications were only higher than Mad-Eye Moody.

A little worse.

Later, after the war, merit was rewarded, and Mad-Eye Moody was too crazy to be appointed as the director of the Auror Office.

Barty Crouch Sr. seemed to be in a stable position, but in fact he was deprived of a lot of power and transferred to other departments.

Scrimgeour took up the position of Head of the Auror Office.

It is a pity that Scrimgeour did not use this throne to obtain any resources for himself. He still had the same thinking as before, a vanguard. Rather than being a leader who made suggestions, he became a person sitting in the office.

Inside, there is a reckless man who still wants to go to the front line.

He held the wand in his hand and said to Tonks: "If the evidence you gave me is correct, then we can indeed prove one thing.

That is Peter Pettigrew, who is indeed alive and active in London.

I really can't believe it.

I feel there must be a big conspiracy behind this."

he said.

Tonks didn't speak. He was in a complicated mood. On the one hand, based on the madman's language, she really found a clue that Peter Pettigrew was suspected to be alive. He told this clue to Scrimgeour - Scrimgeour was a

A superior she could trust, especially after Fudge released the Death Eaters last time, Scrimgeour was extremely disappointed in Fudge.

He is not the same person as Fudge.

After Tonks brought out the evidence, he summoned the Aurors without hesitation and came to the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic to move things. "We are going to find Peter Pettigrew. If we find Peter Pettigrew, we can get the

Some truth."

Scrimgeour was unaware that the Ministry of Magic was in turmoil when Sirius was imprisoned.

He doesn't care about the detours of these interests.

He just wants to do what he is doing well.

Aurors should capture Death Eaters and deal with everything related to Death Eaters.

"Work hard and catch Peter Pettigrew, and we can pass the news to Ms. Bernsch."

Obviously, from Scrimgeour's perspective, the only person trustworthy in the Ministry of Magic now is his upright boss, Ms. Burnsch.

Tonks said nothing. She was not as optimistic as Scrimgeour. She always felt that the purpose of that madman Duwei was not that simple.

He always uses simple things to do scary things.

'He's using me.'

Tonks knew this very well, but just because he was using her, could Tonks turn a blind eye to the news before her and pretend to be deaf and dumb?

no.

She knew that she was being manipulated.

This feeling made her sick.

She wished she could find this madman, throw him into Azkaban again, and ask the dementors to give him a sweet kiss.

Unfortunately, that doesn't work either.

However, this is not completely impossible.

Tonks felt that as long as she held Peter Pettigrew in her hand, Dowey Jones would appear.

After all, Duwei used her just for Peter Pettigrew.

Peter Pettigrew appeared, and it was time for him to appear.

While Tonks was thinking, Scrimgeour had once again led people away from the Ministry of Magic.

Scrimgeour is a man of action, and his efficiency in doing things is astonishingly high.

His efficiency is that of the Ministry of Magic, no, his efficiency is the T0 level in the entire English system.

Mr. Arthur looked at these murderous Aurors who left the Ministry of Magic in surprise.

"They don't look like they want to hunt Fudge and throw Cornelius Fudge into Azkaban."

Arthur took Fudge to make fun of him, but his old friend didn't take it seriously either.

"Maybe."

He muttered, "I wish that idiot Fudge was thrown into Azkaban."

"I also hope. Originally I wanted Lucius Malfoy to go to Azkaban, but unfortunately, he committed suicide."

The old friend curled his lips and said nothing.

Arthur chatted with his old friend for a while, then turned around and went to another office, elbowing the fishing colleague next to him.

"Hey, let me tell you a secret. Please don't tell others this secret. Umbridge, she was kidnapped by centaurs at Hogwarts..."

…

Hogwarts, the Shrieking Shack, inside the box.

Du Wei threw away the Muggle phone and left it in the hands of Sirius behind him. He saw that he had been pierced into a hedgehog armor and lost the invisibility cloak. He persuaded Sirius to call his cat friend and put it away.

Harry Potter's Invisibility Cloak was stolen.

"I'll borrow it to go to Gringotts."

Sirius hesitated.

"Don't worry, I will definitely pay it back. I guarantee it with, um, my personality."

When Sirius heard this, he hesitated even more.

Du Wei took a look and quickly added: "No, no, no, otherwise, I swear in the name of my family."

Sirius didn't believe Duwei anymore.

This sounds like a lie.

Because that's how he lied.

"I swear on the honor of the Black family and stuff like that."

Usually when he says this, he is lying.

He was afraid that Duwei, a shameless person, would get Harry Potter's Invisibility Cloak and never return it.

Others can't do this kind of thing, but Du Wei can do it.

Sirius didn't know if he could take it back from Du Wei if he didn't want to pay it back.

"Don't worry."

Du Wei looked at Sirius's suspicious eyes, patted his chest and said, "I am a person who can tell the truth. Besides, it is your godson's family heirloom, how can I be willing to keep it as my own?

Am I that immoral?"
