The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

As Link expected, Fudge, the stupid and timid fellow, had no signs of wanting to believe after hearing Dumbledore's detailed account.

He even laughed.

"Listen to me, Dumbledore." Fudge said, "Don't you really believe all this? The man who can't even say the name really came back? Don't be kidding, don't kidding. This will kill you. It's just a smuggler and a group of dark wizards united in an attempt to gain more power. This is not surprising. In fact, they have been very active throughout the past year, but they have been proud of their actions. Luomen suppressed it.

As for Bagman, we have also investigated clearly. This guy is a very bad official, and what he did was to harm the public power of the entire Ministry of Magic. The most important thing we should do is to execute him early and give the public an explanation. As for what you said, Dumbledore, I really can't help..."

"That night, Link, Harry, and Severus were kidnapped by Voldemort." Dumbledore interrupted Fudge and said firmly. "They all witnessed Voldemort's resurrection. This is an indisputable fact. If you have any questions, you can go to my office, and I can show you a snippet of Severus' memory at the time."

Fudge's body shuddered instinctively when he heard Voldemort's name, but the weird smile remained on his face.

He turned his head to look at Link and Harry, then turned his eyes to Dumbledore and said:

"You are going to accept everything you say to them, don't you? Dumbledore?"

"Of course I believe them," Dumbledore's eyes glowed. "They have no reason to deceive me with this kind of lies, especially Severus. He is not that naive."

The smile on Fudge's face finally disappeared.

Up to this moment, he was still reluctant to believe that Voldemort had been resurrected, although Dumbledore's statement of the matter was reasonable and almost seamless.

But the more he did this, the less he believed it.

Dumbledore was much better than him in terms of strength and fame, although Dumbledore initially rejected the opportunity of the people to recommend him to become Minister of Magic, which allowed Fudge to pick up a bargain.

But Fudge would not be grateful to Dumbledore. On the contrary, Fudge has been living in Dumbledore’s shadow all the time for so many years, worrying about whether Dumbledore would suddenly want to be Minister of Magic again, and thus put him Get out of office.

Especially after Fudge tasted the taste of power, this emotion became more and more intense.

If Voldemort's resurrection was changed, Fudge would unconditionally write three points before anyone else said it, and take full investigation.

After all, this matter is not trivial.

But this incident was told by Dumbledore and the people at Hogwarts.

This made Fudge no way to believe it.

Because in Fudge's understanding, Dumbledore is fully capable of arranging this non-existent thing seamlessly, and using this to change him.

And now, in the face of Dumbledore's "personal testimony" once again, Fudge almost instinctively looked at Harry and Link, and finally fixed his eyes on Link.

For him, whether it was the testimony of Harry Potter or Snape, he could completely ignore it.

After all, one of them was a madman with crazy talk, and the other was a former Death Eater who was held firmly in the palm of his hand by Dumbledore. Even if they were let out, the public would not believe it too much.

But Link, the heir of the Foley family, is different.

The testimony of a person who possesses a very high social status and is at the top of the entire class in terms of personal reputation and background reputation can have an amazing impact.

Fudge's expression was so ugly, he couldn't figure out how Link would want to stand by Dumbledore's side.

But it doesn't matter. Fudge felt that based on his previous friendly exchanges with Link, Link should not be the kind of existence that can't be settled.

Quickly thinking of a countermeasure, Fudge regained a smile and said:

"Ah! Dumbledore, if you don't tell me, I really forgot! In addition to investigating Ludo Bagman's case, I have another important mission at Hogwarts."

He looked at Link again, "That is to award our triwizard champion, the hero who saved Hogwarts-Mr. Link Foley!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was a little confused by Fudge's sudden change of subject.

But Fudge himself disagreed, and enthusiastically took out a bulging money bag full of Jin Jialong and stuffed it into Link's arms.

"First of all, this is your bonus. Ah, yeah, yeah, I know 1000 gold gallons is indeed a little too little for you, but please understand, this is definitely not an insult to you, but the rules are like this. .

Of course, your performance this time can be said to be brilliant, especially since you defeated the invading Dark Wizard and saved Hogwarts. Naturally, I can't forget this kind of great credit.

In fact, I have already prepared the award ceremony for you. The venue is in the largest auditorium of the Ministry of Magic. By the way, I also notified the reporter of the Daily Prophet to come and interview you. I hope that your deeds can encourage more Many young people are making progress every day.

In addition, I think your mother and the entire Foley family must also be rewarded. After all, they have nurtured an outstanding teenager like you for the country, didn't they?

Link, you see, wait a while when I finish my work at Hogwarts, how about you follow me back to the Ministry of Magic? "

After that, Fudge glanced at Dumbledore triumphantly.

This made most of the people present feel a sinking heart.

Fudge's wooing and bribery meant too much.

And the benefits given are indeed amazing.

They are really afraid that Link will change his mind. After all, heirs from a pure-blooded family like Link are generally educated from an early age to focus on the interests of the family.

From this point of view, it seemed that Link really had a hard time rejecting Fudge.

"Link won't ask for your reward! Don't be foolish!"

The fierce but not stupid Harry also regained the taste at this time, and said furiously, "In addition, I saw the Death Eaters with my own eyes, and I can even give out their names! Lucius Malfoy—"

"The Malfoy family is an ancient family, and they are very willing to dedicate their lives to a good cause." Facing Harry's rant, Fudge responded slowly, "And after investigation, Lucius Malfoy didn't appear to be anxious. It was controlled by someone using an Imperius curse, and he has been acquitted."

"McNeill!"

Harry continued to give those names without giving up.

"He was also acquitted and currently works at the Ministry of Magic."

"Crabbe! Gore! Nott..."

"I'm so fed up! You are just repeating the names of those who were convicted of not being Death Eaters thirteen years ago! If you want to know whether these people are innocent, you can go to the trial report of that year. Those are all Public information! For Merlin’s sake, Dumbledore, take care of your students! He is so whimsical that he thinks he will be smarter than the professionals of the Ministry of Magic!"

Fudge finally got a little angry.

He yelled at Harry angrily, and then stopped paying attention to Harry at all, and continued to look at Link, waiting for a response.

But Link shook his head dumbfoundingly.

That's right, Fudge's exchange of interests is indeed very sincere.

But he still overlooked one point, that is, Voldemort is really resurrected.

If it were compared with the catastrophe that Voldemort would bring, Fudge's little thing seemed a bit tasteless.

"Don't do these meaningless things," Link said slowly, "Minister Fudge, the man who can't even mention the name has been resurrected. This attack was also planned by him. I think you are arguing here. , It’s better to do something more meaningful."

Hearing that Harry's excited plan was about to jump up.

He knew that Link couldn't be moved by mere interests.

But Fudge's expression was a little uncertain.

He still didn't expect Voldemort to be resurrected, he just felt that Link was bargaining with him.

With the idea of ​​listening to the conditions first, Fudge said blankly:

"Then what do you think is more meaningful?"

"For example," Link said following Fudge's words, "to free Azkaban from the control of the Dementor."

"Are you crazy? Withdraw the dementor? I dare say that I will be expelled from the discussion scene of the Vincent Gamer Council as soon as I make this suggestion!" Fudge frowned and exclaimed, "Know that half of us are because Knowing that there are dementors guarding Azkaban, I can sleep peacefully at night.

What's more, using Azkaban as a predator for the dementors is an alliance between the Ministry of Magic and the entire group of dementors! Knowing that dementors always prey, I evacuated them out of Azkaban and turned around. Where would you let them hunt? Muggle society? "

"You have to do this. The evil creatures like Dementors are born to be allies of people like Voldemort. You let them guard Azkaban, you are sending the Death Eaters in Azkaban back to Voldemort's embrace. "Lin Ke solemnly said, "If you don't cancel the Dementor, you can just put all the prisoners in Azkaban to death. Anyway, Azkaban is also dead twice in three days, kill them. After that, just arrange a cause of death casually, no one will care."

As soon as Link's words came out, everyone's face changed, and Harry's face became even more pale, his eyes widened as if he had met Link for the first time, and he looked at Link in horror.

It was really hard for him to imagine that such cold-blooded words came from Link's mouth.

That's hundreds of lives!

"Or you have a second option," Link fixed his eyes on Fudge. "While it is still too late, send a letter to non-human intelligent creatures including giants, merfolk, fairies, horsemen, etc., to reach out to them. Hand of Friendship, or Voldemort will draw them all together! Don't be surprised, he has done this before."

"You are really crazy—"

Fudge murmured, but before he could finish speaking, Dumbledore interrupted:

"Link is not crazy. In fact, everything he says is what I want you to do. Connelly, accept the reality and stop obsessing with your official position. This will only make you lose what you deserve. Judgment."

At this time, Fudge couldn't tell, he just panted hard, shaking his head, and kept backing away.

Snape suddenly rushed out from the side, he grabbed Fudge by the collar and pulled him back.

Then Snape opened his sleeves and put the black mark on his arm that was regularly agitated as if it had come alive to Fudge's eyes and said hoarsely:

"Look, the Dark Mark. It is not as obvious as it was that night. It was burned to black at the time, but it can still be found now? It is much more active than in the past ten years! You should know what this means. What is it? Now can you still say that that person has not been resurrected?"

Fudge was terrified.

He tried his best, blushed before getting rid of Snape, and slowly retreated to the door:

"You are really unreasonable, enough, really enough, I don't want to talk to you crazy people anymore, I want to go back!"

"Connelly!"

Dumbledore yelled to Fudge, "If you are so stubborn and obsessed with it. Then we will have to part ways. You do what you think is appropriate, and I--I will do what I want."

Dumbledore’s voice sounded incomparably plain, as if it did not contain any threatening elements but was just a notice, but Fudge was so furious when he heard the words, his face turned pale for a while, as if Dumbledore was holding one. The wand was pointed at him.

After a while, Fudge reacted.

He became a little bit irritated, and took a few steps forward, blushing, and roared in a distorted voice:

"Okay, Dumbledore! I have always given you full freedom. I have always respected you. I may not approve of some of your decisions, but I always remain silent. Not many people will allow you to hire a werewolf and keep it. Hagrid, he might decide what to teach the students without asking the Ministry of Magic. But if you think I am really afraid of you, then you are very wrong!"

Excessive anger made Fudge shake a little.

After that, he stopped talking to Dumbledore, and slammed the door.

"Principal Dumbledore—"

Harry said worriedly.

Although he had just acted extremely hard, he was facing the Minister of Magic after all, and seeing Fudge in such a big fire, Harry also felt a little wrong.

"Don't worry, I will take care of everything." Dumbledore waved his hand. "You and Link take a good rest. It's a serious matter to get your health up as soon as possible."

After speaking, Dumbledore left the infirmary with McGonagall and others expressionlessly.

Next they have a long meeting to hold ~www.novelmt.com~ and looking at the background of their departure, Link also frowned deeply.

He had actually thought about changing Fudge's mind and uniting the power of the Ministry of Magic against Voldemort.

This will make the time for Voldemort's re-emergence become extremely long, after all, the Ministry of Magic, as the strongest organization in the wizarding world, its strength should not be underestimated.

But the reality made Link wake up from his dream.

However, to borrow the power of the Ministry of Magic, it is not only through Fudge.

Since Fudge was shameless, Link could only come hard.

"call!"

Link took a deep breath and said to Harry very seriously:

"Harry, your speech must be finished as soon as possible."
