"This... this is really, thank you so much! I didn't expect that a wizard as young as you would like to read my articles..."
Rita Skeeter gaped from ear to ear at the honeyed words.
"Ma'am, what shocking article are you preparing for this time?" McGuffin pretended to be surprised, "Is it about the incident of Professor Quirrell?"
When Rita Skeeter was about to say something.Umbridge couldn't hold it anymore, and she screamed like a girl, "What are you talking to this little wizard who is full of lies? Rita Skeeter... you just wait there and wait for me and Mr. Malfoy to finish questioning,... I will tell you the answer, just write it down!"
——This can be regarded as stepping on Rita Skeeter's pain point.
She walked over immediately, relying on her height, staring at the witch in front of her who looked like a short-legged pink toad, she raised her very thick eyebrows, looking a little angry, and said, "Ma'am, are you going to tell me how to complete my work?"
"So what? You're just a [Prophet] reporter..." Umbridge said domineeringly to Rita Skeeter.
——This made the self-righteous female reporter very angry.
She endured it, took a step back, and stepped aside.
This made Umbridge very proud, but McGuffin clearly saw that after she turned... Rita Skeeter's wand waved, erasing all the writing just now.
Then he stared at Dolores Umbridge's back with a kind of resentment, and wrote something quickly in the notebook.
—The grudge, she, Rita Skeeter, took note.
McGuffin knew without thinking...it must be a little black book! !
However, Umbridge herself had no way of knowing all this, and after a brief victory, she became even more defiant, and began to announce the punishment of McGuffin, as if she had become the master of this kind of school.
"What's your name? Little wizard?"
"Forget it...Professor Dumbledore, I want you to lock up this little wizard for at least three weeks...as a punishment. If you don't finish this semester, next semester will be the top. If you make other mistakes, please...must remember to drive this black sheep out of Hogwarts!"
"Hogwarts is a school in itself... We can't allow little wizards to spend money and energy on falling in love, pretending to be cool, doing magic tattoos and the like instead of studying... This is a waste of all wizards' tax dollars!"
"It's not a magic tattoo!" McGuffin retorted slowly and firmly. "It's a crazy supporter of the Dark Lord, that is, the magic mark left by the dark wizard Quirinus Quirrell...or maybe he is a Death Eater who was missed! After all, no matter what you say...the Dark Lord has disappeared for 11 years, there are such crazy supporters of Voldemort!"
"Death Eaters?!" (Mr. Malfoy's face turned even paler in an instant)
"Death Eater?!" (Hearing this long-disappeared title, and McGuffin emphasized that Quirrell was an omitted Death Eater, specifically referring to the omissions in the original handling of the Ministry of Magic, which caused Umbridge to step on the pain point and immediately jumped up)
"Death Eaters?!" (Rita Skeeter's eyes were shining brightly, and the quill was constantly writing in the notebook. She felt that she had discovered a piece of news that could overwhelm the Ministry of Magic.)
"Death Eaters?!" (I said Professor MacGuffin, why are you joining in the fun, what are you yelling at here)
"That's right! Professor Snape, who used to be a Death Eater, obviously knew about this mark...and made him use potions to wake me up and save me... If you don't believe me, find a Death Eater to find out and confirm it, won't you know it clearly?"
With McGuffin able to guide, everyone turned their attention to the only person on the scene who had the identity of a Death Eater.
— Lucius Malfoy!
At this time, Umbridge also realized that the little wizard in front of him might be the most difficult person in this house to deal with...
"How dare you...?" The already wrinkled pie face was now distorted by anger, causing wrinkles all over the face, protruding eyes, and looked more like a pink toad.
"..."
When she wanted to yell at this little wizard, she realized that she didn't even know his name.
And McGuffin stretched out his wrist, showing the mark of the Ouroboros to Mr. Malfoy.
He was a little worried that Lucius Malfoy hadn't seen the existence of this mark from Voldemort...
Unexpectedly, after seeing this thing, Lucius Malfoy's face lost all color in an instant, as if someone had sucked out other colors from his face,... so pale!
Mr. Malfoy took two steps back, his body swayed twice, and he wanted to turn around and go...but he forced himself to hold back his steps and stopped.His face seemed to be wearing a white shell mask.
Malfoy said to the people looking at him without smiling, "Yes... I used to be a Death Eater... But the original Ministry of Magic's verdict has already acquitted me?... Could it be that Hogwarts wants to replace the Ministry of Magic to try me again?"
At this time, Dumbledore, who had been watching and observing the progress with great interest, stood up again, staring sharply at Lucius Malfoy's eyes, and he explained, "Malfoy... This is just a request from a little wizard. We are all very curious about whether Quilinus Quirrell is a Death Eater...Professor Snape said that this is indeed some kind of unique spell of Voldemort. It just so happens that you are here, please come and confirm that it is not too much?"
(Everyone shuddered at the reappearance of the name Voldemort, only McGuffin and Dumbledore didn't care.)
"Is that so?" Mr. Malfoy said slowly, slowly to Dumbledore.
He continued with an unnatural expression, "It does look like a mark left by some kind of black witchcraft. But because the age is too long... things related to the Dark Lord... you know... I didn't participate in it deeply... I can't remember clearly now."
"Really?" McGuffin took the topic and continued to ask, "However... Most of the Death Eaters have been liquidated now, but there should be some... Please confirm, after all, these are Death Eaters, followers of Voldemort... If Quirrell is really a Death Eater! Who knows if there are other Death Eaters that have been missed!"
(Hearing the little wizard say so emphatically, Umbridge fiddled with the maiden hairpins on his head again uneasily)
"These dark wizards always take pleasure in torturing Muggles, non-pure-blood wizards...Maybe one day it will make a big news for the Ministry of Magic...At that time people will ask why there are still Death Eaters left...You think so, Mr. Malfoy, Ms. Umbridge?"
McGuffin deliberately emphasized Voldemort's name this time, which made the few people who heard him dare not look directly into McGuffin's eyes when they came to bring Professor McGonagall.
They thought that this daring little wizard hadn't gone through the horrors of the time when the Dark Lord ruled with fear... that's why he acted recklessly.
And Dumbledore looked at McGuffin with a twinkle in his eye.
——He was right in predicting the little wizard's attitude towards Voldemort. He didn't look down on him at all now, and it could even be said that he hated Voldemort. The two of them would definitely be mortal enemies.
——One can never tolerate another person who is on par with oneself.This is especially true for wizards like Voldemort.
"Because of this, McGuffin Albert, a precocious little wizard, will be automatically conscious and choose to stand on Harry's side." Dumbledore considered it this way, and it was also the reason why he indulged Quirrell and McGuffin this semester.
MacGuffin's harsh words made Lucius Malfoy's pale hands clenched into fists and loosened several times.
And Umbridge couldn't maintain her 'friendly' smile any longer, her two big protruding eyes fixedly stared at McGuffin,... she wanted to engrave this bold little guy in her heart and firmly remember it.
With a hoarse voice, she said fiercely, "If... I said that if Quilinus Quirrell is really a Death Eater, and the culprit who almost killed Harry Potter... the two little wizards, then Hogwarts... Dumbledore has an inescapable responsibility! How can they make a dark wizard... a Death Eater become Hogwarts... or even the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts?"
"Dumbledore made at least one mistake of ignorance... In this way, he will not be qualified for the position of headmaster of Hogwarts!"
Professor McGonagall wanted to say something, but Dumbledore stopped him with a wave of his hand. He wanted to see what else this little McGuffin could do?
"But Dumbledore is not the headmaster of Hogwarts or Dumbledore... This will not hurt his reputation much!... But if you return to Fauci with such 'good news', it is hard to imagine what he will do to you... Anyway, your career in the Ministry of Magic should be over, right?"
Looking at the performance of McGuffin in this scene, Professor McGonagall hardly expressed his feelings in words.
At this time, Dumbledore was able to know the ending of Lucius' trip,
——They will be tightly controlled by the little guy McGuffin, just like flying mosquitoes locked by fists.
He was scratching his nose wondering why the MacGuffin had suddenly shown this scene.
——What is this little wizard thinking in his heart, why did he suddenly reveal the other side of his disguise at this time.
At this time, McGuffin got off the bed and stood in front of Umbridge, scanning the three 'unexpected visitors', with eyes that did not look like those of an 11-year-old wizard at all.
——There is contempt and sarcasm on the surface, but in fact it is full of coldness and indifference!
Lucius now somewhat believes that this little wizard might have killed an adult wizard!
"Ms. Umbridge, if we can, let's take a step back..."
"Take a step back..." Umbridge said softly. (Her voice is finally normal, it doesn't always have that 'girly style')
"Yes! You go back and tell your minister...Fauci, Quilinus Quirrell is a staunch supporter of pure blood, a crazy admirer of Voldemort..." McGuffin said here, he paused deliberately.
Seeing Umbridge and Lucius Malfoy unnaturally look away from him, and then realizing that it was a bit guilty, he forced himself to look directly at the McGuffin.
Then McGuffin continued, "... Dumbledore arrived in time, thwarted his plot, and saved two little wizards, one of whom was the famous Harry Potter..."
"It's as simple as that, there are no lies... just ignore the vague and seemingly false rumors of the mysterious man... or the Death Eaters... After all, the requirements of the Ministry of Magic are definite proofs and news, not a possible conjecture..."
"Isn't it? Ms Umbridge!"
McGuffin raised his voice sharply and asked back.
Umbridge stood still for a moment, and McGuffin clearly saw her pink heel lifted several times, moved, moved away, lowered again, and finally returned to its original position.
At this time, Lucius Malfoy was still a guy who had always been good at seeing the direction of the wind, and he felt that today's incident had already used that incident to pinpoint Dumbledore-it was impossible to drive him away.
——I didn't expect that today I would be humiliated by an 11-year-old Mudblood.
——In contrast,... Draco Malfoy is actually not promising at all... He was fainted by a giant monster in that underground level... He didn't show the elegance of the Malfoy family.Moreover, the magic ring given to him can actually give him a layer of 'color' in the side effect!
"It's worthless!..."
Although Lucius Malfoy planned to give up his 'bad score' against Dumbledore this time, he still felt that he should do a 'scraping', maybe there might be some surprises?
"Dumbledore, I have one last question... You have said so much, but I heard that there are several underground checkpoints in the depths of Hogwarts, which are full of magic traps, and there are even three monsters guarded by giant monsters..."
"This is too dangerous for those young wizards in the lower grades. You professors, principals, vice principals... can't you think about the safety of the students?"
"What the hell did you put in the school?"
Mr. Malfoy asked 'righteously' the sound of the earthquake.
"The Philosopher's Stone...or the Philosopher's Stone, or you can also call it Merlin's Golden Legend!!"
McGuffin answered in a frivolous tone first.
"McGuffin Albert...you!"
Professor McGonagall couldn't believe that this little wizard exposed the secret they had been protecting all along.
"It seems that this is true..." Lucius felt that he had the upper hand again, he straightened up, and walked in front of Dumbledore and McGuffin, "So the Sorcerer's Stone is indeed..."
"So what? Do you want to find the Sorcerer's Stone like Quilinus Quirrell, and snatch Merlin's big treasure?...Use it to resurrect Lord Voldemort?" McGuffin interrupted Lucius Malfoy's speech unceremoniously.
This made Lucius twitch his right hand, even reaching into his pocket, as if trying to reach for his wand.
——Teach this arrogant little wizard a lesson.
He restrained himself, however, probably because Dumbledore was still in front of him.
In the end, Lucius Malfoy didn't even say a word, and slammed the door out angrily.
As for Umbridge, she already felt a little scared of this little wizard... and she saw that Lucius Malfoy didn't take advantage of it, so she couldn't use that incident to hit Dumbledore... She also immediately followed Malfoy and slipped away in disgrace.
