Pure Blood Glory at Hogwarts
Chapter 520
This kind of thing is supposed to be very common.After all, no matter how strict and cohesive an organization is, there are bound to be factions.There must be some internal contradictions.
Luke knew that the organization Phoenix originally belonged to was quite loose.At least their exteriors are extremely easy to penetrate.So Luke easily let people infiltrate the organization, and with Phoenix's reminder, he focused on the fire dragon with no signs of aging or growth, and his private castle, those who obviously aged more slowly. Servants.
Others are somewhat skeptical about immortality and immortality.If there is anything weird, I won't really think of it easily at the first time.To be honest, as a wizard, it is more likely that those servants who are not prone to aging are considered to be highly realistic magic dolls.
After all, the latter is much simpler than the former.
But for people like Luke, even if he relies on path, this time he should rely on the concept of immortality.And the reason why he said that Fire Dragon's side is also quite loose is naturally because none of his servants have anything to say about Fire Dragon sincerely.There are even some people who regard fire dragons as their enemies.
Luke didn't quite understand, but chose to accept the other party's help.This is what happened next.
At the same time, he also learned some relatively secret things.For example, there is a masked person within the organization who is very good at space magic.Especially good at making door keys.
And that person, wearing a lion mask, rarely appears in everyone's field of vision.
With such characteristics, coupled with the door key Luke captured and his vigilance that he had never let down, he quickly concluded that the 'lion' was most likely Ryan Kane.
As for the 'high probability', of course, further investigation is needed.However, the next investigation method can be a little rougher.
At the same time, Luke was also sure that there were spies from the Saints around him.But Luke didn't bother looking.For now, he doesn't have anything confidential that anyone other than his close associates should know.
Again, the people he truly trusts have often proven their bottom line in the original work.Those new additions were only approved by Luke after repeated consideration and confirmation.If Luke cannot trust these people, then he is really alone in this world.
However, what surprised Luke the most about the whole thing was that Ryan Kane never missed the mark.When Luke meets him, he always observes him with his emotional eyes open.It stands to reason that something wrong should have been discovered long ago.
After thinking for a moment, Luke still shook his head. Thinking about it now, his exchanges with Ryan Kane at that time would always turn to the research issue about the portkey after the first few waves of testing.It can only be said that if Ryan Kane is really the mole, then his character design is really perfect.A madman on magic research who has no scheming and can even be said to have no brains.
Thinking of this, Luke couldn't help but shake his head. That guy was so brainless, he really didn't look like an actor.You still have to check it out when you go back.
Dumbledore watched Luke sink into his own thoughts, knocked on the table lightly and said: "Tell me your next plan. Although Voldemort is injured, you also know his behavior. You can't let too many people Hurt."
Dumbledore has never been a saintly person.He knew very well that whether it was the change Luke wanted or the change Grindelwald wanted, it would eventually bring bloodshed and sacrifice.The biggest reason why he opposed Grindelwald was that Grindelwald's ideas were too extreme.And there is no possibility of achieving it.The relationship between Muggles and wizards is not one of oppression and domination at all.
Dumbledore understood Luke's thoughts, but he also vaguely felt that Luke had something to hide.This fit well with what he knew about Luke.It would be weird if this guy didn't hide it from others.
Dumbledore had always wondered whether Taylor also knew all of this kid's secrets.But he felt reassured about Luke.After all, judging from the existing concepts, Luke's idea is good for the wizarding world.At least Dumbledore also recognized that the order Luke could create was better than the current pressure cooker-like order that was already blowing like crazy.
So Dumbledore is somewhat supportive of Luke's idea.But, again... try to reduce casualties as much as possible.Life is not anyone's currency.No one squandered their qualifications.
"Don't worry, Professor, the power shown on our side is evenly matched with the power that the Death Eaters can contend with. The other party will never dare to act rashly. And..."
As he spoke, Luke took out a ball of jelly-like gelatin from his belt.When Dumbledore saw the things preserved in the gelatin, his eyes suddenly shrank.
"The injuries I gave that idiot Tom can't be healed so easily. The time he spent recovering from his injuries is enough for you to make a lot of arrangements."
Luke said, putting away the slightly disgusting souvenir.The biggest effect of this thing is to scare some guys in the camp he has booked who may not be very determined.
Such as Lucius, Mr. Malfoy, Draco Malfoy's father.
This guy has some novel ideas in his mind from time to time, and Luke really wants to shock this guy.
Dumbledore narrowed his eyes: "Me? I'm going to make some arrangements?"
Luke nodded: "Of course, I have a preliminary estimate of the casualties that will occur during this period, but to be honest, I am not sure whether there will be any accidents. I have left myself enough anticipation. But I don’t know if you can accept this amount in advance. Moreover, even if I tell you, I have already arranged it. You don’t have to worry about anything, will you really do nothing? "
He knew very well what image he had in Dumbledore's eyes.There is a bottom line, but it is not high.He has a kind nature, but his style of doing things is both good and evil, neither black nor white.Therefore, Dumbledore will never let down his guard during this sensitive period.Whether it was to stop Voldemort or Luke, he had to be ready to take action.
Dumbledore glanced at Luke helplessly, then nodded and said, "Okay, I will arrange it myself."
What he said was somewhat helpless.But it’s considered normal.After all, as Luke said before, there was nothing to do even to reassure Dumbledore.He couldn't stay idle after all.
"That's enough, don't say anything anymore. It's too late. I'll probably have to be interrogated by the three courts when I go back later."
Luke said helplessly.Whether these things have anything to do with Taylor or not, Hermione and the others said, it must be his freedom.But if you choose not to say it.If they are frightened, they will still have to accept their criticism and questioning.They all choose themselves.
In fact, even if he explained it in advance, he would definitely encounter some opposition.After all, this kind of thing is still too dangerous in the eyes of a normal little wizard.Of course Luke himself was full of confidence, but in order to avoid trouble beforehand, he did not explain the matter clearly.Of course, some information is also given.It's definitely not going to be a 'three court trial' when we go back.
Dumbledore nodded and said: "Go back and have a good rest. You are probably busier than me during this period."
........................
In fact, people like Dumbledore and Luke who were either prepared for things or confident in their own strength would not be in a hurry.But some people are different.
Fudge had no idea what happened today.He only thinks that he is here to reap the results.After all, no matter what, the smooth holding of the Three Witches Tournament must be due to three...fourths of his contribution.Although he didn't do anything.But as long as he allows this, he will naturally be able to share the credit.
He didn't even know what a group of wizard family patriarchs had come here to plot.And what happened next was even more outrageous.
First, the 'savior' was captured, and he felt confused at that time.Even if we don't talk about this child's ability, the symbolic significance of this child is not small at all.He is a monument to Voldemort's failure.It is also a monument to the victory of the British wizarding community headed by him.Once this monument is destroyed, someone will definitely come forward to doubt his ability.
His first counterattack was to throw the blame on Barty Crouch.Isn't it reasonable that the superiors share the credit and the subordinates take the blame?
Unfortunately, before Fudge had time to feel happy about his wit, he saw the Dark Mark rising in the sky.This made his claws numb.In the Ministry of Magic, he supervised this matter, and Scrimgeour, the director of the Auror Office, was responsible for the investigation.Now, the investigation has yielded no results, but the Death Eaters have entered Hogwarts directly.This is their big mistake!
Fudge told himself not to panic.After taking a long time to calm down, he still found some reasons to convince himself.Things are not that bad yet. As long as you control the media and stop talking nonsense and let them say something beneficial to you, you will definitely be able to avoid danger as usual.
However, unfortunately...
When Luke returned with the news of Voldemort's resurrection, Fudge was completely clueless.For a while, other than insisting that this was impossible, he couldn't think of any other way to protect himself.
Fudge slammed the document in his hand on the ground in annoyance. Fudge looked at the table with an annoyed look, as if Voldemort was on the table at this moment, and Fudge could stare him to death just by staring.
Umbridge who was outside the door listened to the movement and subconsciously shrank her neck, even though she didn't have much of that in the first place.However, although she was a little confused about the current situation, Umbridge still thought she was very polite and opened the door of the minister's office for Scrimgeour behind her.
"Master Scrimgeour, please come in."
Scrimgeour glanced at the pink toad in front of him and knew that she had no intention of going in and continuing the conversation this time.Scrimgeour didn't say much. Everyone has their own way of survival, and naturally they also have their own survival wisdom.It doesn't matter if it's Umbridge in front of him, Cornelius Fudge in the office, or himself.
"Mr. Minister."
Scrimgeour entered the room, ignoring the sound of the door closing behind him or the mess in front of him, and just calmly said to Fudge.
Fudge's blood surged, his face flushed, and he sat on the chair. His breathing was a little heavy and he said, "How is it?"
"There are indeed traces of battle. And after our investigation, the situation is roughly the same as what Mr. Luke Gunter said."
Scrimgeour said it very implicitly. In fact, based on their investigation, they estimated that there was some moisture in Luke Gunter's words.Only traces of one party's attack were seen, and the attacking party was probably the retreating party.That said, Luke Gaunt probably fought off Voldemort without much effort.And judging from the blood stains on the ground, even if Voldemort escaped with two of his men, someone was definitely injured. Voldemort did not fully protect his men at the scene...
This kind of information made Scrimgeour think a lot, and finally decided to report the matter according to Luke's own words.
Fudge stared at Scrimgeour, who was calm. After a long time, he said, "Scrimgeour, can I trust you?"
Scrimgeour straightened his body and said seriously: "I am absolutely loyal to my duty."
The implication is that he will naturally do all his duties well, but he will never become Fudge's subordinate.
Scrimgeour is not an idiot. Fudge's ship is already sinking visibly.Even that guy Umbridge is starting to think about retreating. Is he still hoping to move up now?
If there was such a person, Fudge would have to be careful.This kind of person is obviously planning to sell Fudge at a good price.
Although Fudge has no ability, if he couldn't hear this, he wouldn't have been able to work in the Ministry of Magic for so many years.
His expression suddenly became stern, his eyes widened, and he stared at Scrimgeour. He stood up with his hands on the table and leaned forward.
"you……"
Scrimgeour's expression remained unchanged.He had never been afraid of Fudge.Although Fudge looked fierce now, he was even less afraid.Is it terrible for an honest person to get angry?It's scary, but the extent of the threat is debatable.
Fudge is not the kind of person to take risks.
"You go and warn the media and tell them to keep their mouths shut tomorrow. This incident will cause panic in the entire wizarding world. It is not appropriate to spread it widely for the time being."
Fudge finally calmed down his temper and gave Scrimgeour some helpless instructions.
Scrimgeour nodded and said: "I will do that. If you have nothing else to do, I will leave first."
Cornelius Fudge nodded feebly, and then waved his hand, indicating that he could go out.
Scrimgeour bowed again and exited the office.
However, he still felt helpless because of Fudge's naivety or inability.The media is making nonsense of this matter, which is beyond Fudge’s control.He saw Lucius exhorting the reporters at that time. Obviously, someone took action earlier than them, and might even be more authoritative than Fudge.
After Scrimgeour left, Fudge looked at the office and finally let out a long sigh.
This office may not belong to him soon.
