Fudge didn't agree with Dumbledore's idea.
Isn't he suspending the Triwizard Tournament now, telling the wizarding world that the leadership team of the Ministry of Magic is not strong enough?
Although the Ministry of Magic currently led by Fudge is indeed very hip.
Last summer, the Ministry of Magic and Gringotts were stolen one after another, and even the Quidditch World Cup was accidental.
But it was because of this that Fudge insisted on continuing the Triwizard Tournament.
Because he felt that this was his chance to prove that he was not an incompetent minister.
"Then you shouldn't let the wizarding world down!"
It was the voice of 'Moody' interjecting, his tone agitated, as if firmly on Dumbledore's side.
But he actually wanted Fudge to turn against Dumbledore.
After all, if the Triwizard Tournament was stopped, his master's plan would not be able to proceed.
But Fudge and Dumbledore were arguing so hotly that they had no time to pay attention to 'Moody'
Fudge said firmly: "The Triwizard Tournament must never be cancelled, and I must not be regarded as a coward!"
Dumbledore retorted: "Really smart leaders are wise and courageous, and don't care what other people think."
Fudge felt that Dumbledore was mocking him, and demanded, "What did you say?!"
At this moment, 'Moody' stood up and interrupted: "Excuse me, gentlemen. It seems that your conversation is no longer private."
Saying that, 'Moody' waved his wand and knocked on the door of the principal's office.
At this moment Harry and Zicomo were standing at the door.
'Mu06di' turned his head, and his pupils shrank when he saw Zicomo.
He only sensed Harry's presence just now, but he didn't expect Zicomo to be there.
'Moody' was suddenly a little worried that Zicomo would discover something, and he decided to return to the scene of the crime later to see if he had left any evidence behind.
As for the reason, he, the former elite Auror, was worried that the current Aurors were not proficient in their business, and planned to guide them. is it not OK?
'Moody' thought Fudge didn't know.
His expression changed when he saw Harry, the seriousness of his argument with Dumbledore was gone.
Fudge said happily: "Harry, I'm so glad to see you again!"
Fudge looked enthusiastic, and those who didn't know thought he knew Harry very well.
In fact, Fudge doesn't like Harry, because Harry's reputation as a savior is greater in the wizarding world than he is as the Minister of Magic.
But Fudge is like this, as a politician, even if he doesn't like someone, he won't show his dislike on his face.
He was able to sit in the position of Minister of Magic for so long, and it was not that he was incapable at all.
At least when it comes to socializing with different people, Fudge is very good at it.
However, Harry ignored him, and Harry stepped over him and said to Dumbledore, "Sorry Professor, we'll be back later."
Dumbledore stopped, "No, Harry. The minister and I have finished talking. I'll send the minister out first, and I'll be back in a while.
Dumbledore had already seen Fudge's determination, and he knew that no matter what Fudge said, he would not stop the Triwizard Tournament.
So Dumbledore neatly prepared to see off his guests.
He turned to Fudge and said, "Minister, please."
After all, Dumbledore kindly took the hat aside for Fudge.
Fudge also happened to be too lazy to continue pestering Dumbledore, he took the hat, turned and left the headmaster's office.
"By the way!" Dumbledore told Harry, "if you're bored while you're waiting for me, feel free to have some licorice candies. Be careful, they're a little rush."
Dumbledore pointed to the metal container on the table, the size of a human head, which was filled with the licorice candy Dumbledore was mouthing.
It was a small black, rock-like candy.
But in Zicomo's view, these candies are exactly the same shape as snails, making him want to have a bowl of snail noodles.
The three of Dumbledore walked out of the headmaster's office, Moody last.
As he closed the door, Zicomo gave him a meaningful look that almost scared him into thinking he had been exposed.
But Zicomo is not like his old dad Crouch.
Zicomo was so strong that 'Moody' wasn't sure he could beat him.
So he couldn't do anything to Zicomo either.
'Moody' pretended to be calm and closed the door of the principal's office, and at the same time warned himself from the bottom of his heart that he must be more cautious in his subsequent actions.
At this moment, Zicomo was thinking about whether he should make a whole bowl of snail noodles for supper, and Harry leaned in front of the pile of licorice candies.
He grabbed a handful with his right hand, and was about to pinch one with his left to taste.
The next second, the candy in Harry's hand came to life.
The spiral-shaped body that was originally like a snail straightened and turned into a big black tadpole, and it still had sharp teeth.
The tadpoles opened their mouths wide and bit Harry's hand.
Fortunately, these are just interesting candies made with magic, and they are not very harmful to people.
Otherwise, it would have bitten Harry's hand to say the least.
Harry shook off the candy in pain, the candy fell to the ground, and Harry was about to bend down to pick it up.
As a result, the candies began to flee in all directions.
As if to avoid Harry, to avoid being caught and eaten by Harry.
Harry saw the candies running somewhere out of his reach, so he gave Zicomo a begging look.
Seeing this, Zicomo waved his hand to the air.
Then, as if there were invisible lines, these candies were caught again.
When these candies were caught by Zicomo, they changed back to their original snail appearance.
Zicomo just glanced at the candies in his hand and threw them back into the candy container.
Zicomo is not interested in these candies, and even if he wanted to taste them, he would not choose those that had fallen to the ground.
As for whether Dumbledore would eat those unclean ones later, that was out of Zicomo's consideration.
Isn't there an old saying that if you don't clean up, you won't get sick if you eat it?
Besides, with the physique of a wizard, he wouldn't get sick just because he ate some dust.
Unless Dumbledore's headmaster's office hasn't been cleaned for hundreds of years, the dust on the ground is full of hundreds of years of bacteria.
Well, thinking about it carefully, it is not impossible with the habits of wizards.
Hogwarts is full of rooms that haven't been cleaned for hundreds of years, and it's not out of the question that the headmaster's office has a corner or two like this.
After going through this, Harry didn't feel like eating candy anymore.
I don't know if he encountered some mechanism when he was picking up candy, the display cabinet on the side opened to both sides.
A half-person-high stone basin emerges from behind a display case.
The edge of the stone basin is engraved with runes and some mysterious symbols, and the water in the basin is shining with blue light, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
Harry asked curiously, "What is this?"
Zicomo replied: "The Pensieve can save the thoughts and memories drawn from the mind, as long as you touch the strips of silver material in the basin, you can view the relevant memory.
As Zicomo spoke, he took a closer look at the Pensieve.
He looked at the Pensieve and said with emotion: "It seems that Dumbledore has a lot of troubles."
The reason why Zicomo feels this way is because it is full of silver strips of different lengths.
This proves that Dumbledore used the Pensieve very frequently.
After hearing Zicomo's introduction, Harry suddenly became curious about what memories Dumbledore had put in it.
He stretched out his hand to touch one of the memories, and Harry suddenly felt dizzy.
Then he fell into a place like a trial hall.
When Harry regained his composure, he found that Dumbledore was beside him 917, and he had become much younger.
Harry realized that he was in Dumbledore's memory.
Just as he was looking at the environment of the trial hall, a cage suddenly rose in the center of the trial hall.
For Harry, the principal of Durmstrang School, Igor Karl Carlov, who had met him a few times, was standing in the cage with ragged clothes and a haggard face.
Harry remembered that Sirius had told him that Carl Carlof had once been a Death Eater.
So this should be the scene of the Ministry of Magic's trial of Carlof.
"Igor Kar Carlov, at your own request, brought you out of Azkaban to ask the committee to give evidence."
"If your testimony is of any value, there is a high probability that this committee will consider ordering your immediate release."
This voice was very familiar to Harry, he only spoke to the owner of this voice today, but he hung up that night.
That's right, the one who said this was the old Crowe area whose corpses were already cold at this time.
He is now sitting in the formal seat, presiding over the trial.
Harry saw old Crouch asking Carlof, "So, what evidence do you want to provide?"
Carlof replied, "Give me the names, sir. I can give you the names of the Death Eaters."
Without waiting for old Crouch to ask, Carlos gave out a series of names one after another.
However, the names of the people he confessed were either dead or arrested, and they were taken into Azkaban by magic.
The only Snape who didn't get caught, was released on bail by Dumbledore.
Crouch Sr. concluded: "If the witnesses fail to give the committee any real evidence, the trial is over and you will be sent back to Azkaban.
Carlof hurriedly said, "No, no, I still know a name."
Old Crouch said: "You say."
Carove said: ………
