Chapter 327 Hogwarts Parents Open Day (please vote for me)
When he heard that a group of parents were blocking him, Fudge's face turned dark.
Parents of Hogwarts students were waiting for him at the school gate. Could that be a good thing? If Hogwarts had a Floo network, he would definitely choose to take the Floo network to escape, but unfortunately there was no Floo network here.
Fudge could only bite the bullet and go to the school gate with Dumbledore, and then he was surrounded by a large group of parents.
All kinds of noisy sounds poured into his ears, making Fudge feel overwhelmed. Dumbledore was also surrounded by angry parents and could not get away for a while.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Henry stepped aside, took out a roll of parchment and wrote a letter - he planned to ask Lord Slytherin out for a chat and report to him on his work progress.
Halfway through the letter, the ink in his ink bottle suddenly floated out of the bottle and turned into a line of text on his parchment.
[What's the matter? ]
Henry's brows twitched fiercely. He knew that Lord Slytherin was conveying information to him, but he didn't even see the shadow of the Lord!
Slytherin is watching you!
This experience would be terrifying for other people, but it was pure happiness for Mr. Henry, because the Greengrass family has been favored by their ancestors for thousands of years.
The stronger the Slytherin, the more confident he is.
Henry immediately replied to Rice on the parchment, expressing his desire to meet with Rice.
The words Henry wrote on the parchment appeared exactly on the paper spread out in front of Rice.
Helga, who was standing next to him, was stunned. This was not her area of expertise, so it was also a very novel experience for Helga.
"Magic, it's amazing, right?" Rice glanced at her and smiled.
Helga held her wand.
Rice immediately closed her mouth and began to write a reply to Henry.
Hufflepuff sneered: "Magic, it's really amazing!"
Rice told Henry that today was not a good time to meet him. He was too conspicuous to appear in Hogwarts, and he would definitely not chat with him in the spotlight. If he really wanted to talk to me, he could organize the parents who came to see Fudge and have them stay in school for dinner.
This Mr. Henry would not be so conspicuous - who could compare to Lucius Malfoy in terms of the ability to grab attention? By then, he would definitely be the most handsome guy under the spotlight, and the probability of him and Henry being noticed would be greatly reduced.
Mr. Henry thought about it and felt that this approach seemed quite attractive. This is his alma mater, carrying the memories of his growth, who can resist this temptation?
He made up his mind to implement this big plan.
After Henry and Les finished "chatting", Fudge also completed a cordial and friendly communication with the parents.
The two sides fully exchanged opinions in a harmonious atmosphere and finally reached a consensus: Hogwarts is a pure land of magic, and Dementors must be evacuated from Hogwarts. The Ministry of Magic will send Aurors to replace Dementors to guard the entrances of Hogwarts to prevent Sirius Black from sneaking into the school.
Fudge rubbed his bloody nose and straightened his messy robes. It seemed that someone had punched him in the chaos, and someone else had kicked him several times.
Fortunately, all these things were over, and he could finally return to the Ministry of Magic. As for the impact of this incident, let's talk about it later. He just wanted to go back and take a hot bath to get rid of the bad luck, and then cover his head with the quilt to sleep.
Fudge hurriedly ran away, and the parents burst into cheers. Even Phoebe, who had spoken for Fudge in Greengrass Manor before, abandoned Fudge and stood on the side of the gathered parents.
"Since we are here, why don't we walk around the school and have a meal before leaving?" Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, but seemed to be a little reluctant, Mr. Henry took the initiative to speak and start a topic.
As soon as the words came out, the parents present all looked at Dumbledore who was standing not far away and watching the fun.
Going back to Hogwarts for a walk, this suggestion is good! The parents present had basically never returned to Hogwarts after graduation. Henry's provocation immediately ignited the idea of returning to their alma mater to reminisce about their youth.
Of course, their motivation was also related to their good performance. If they were like Lupin before he was hired by Hogwarts, they probably wouldn't be in the mood to return to school.
Dumbledore thought about it and felt that it was harmless to let this group of parents in. In addition, they all came from Hogwarts, so he simply agreed to their request. But out of caution, he decided to bring this group of people with him.
"I'll take you around the campus. If you want, we can also find a classroom to sit in on."
"How bad is this-"
"Too disturbing, haha!"
"How presumptuous..."
The parents' eyes lit up all of a sudden. They said it was too disturbing, but their bodies honestly stepped into Hogwarts.
Dumbledore didn't rush to take them into the castle, but first took them to the Black Lake to show them the burial place of the Dementors.
The parents were naturally amazed: Hogwarts' defensive magic is amazing!
They also named this protruding part of the Black Lake "Dementor Corner" to commemorate the Dementors at the bottom of the lake.
"But if Azkaban suddenly loses a hundred Dementors, will it lead to a decrease in the guards' strength? Will it allow more prisoners to escape?"
Once this question was raised, it triggered a very lively discussion.
The parents present were quite concerned about whether the prisoners in Azkaban could escape - many of them and the prisoners inside were former colleagues, so it was normal to be a little concerned.
However, they are not sympathizing with their former colleagues, but they are afraid that Azkaban will not be strictly monitored and their former colleagues will escape...
After all, the people locked inside were the most loyal to Voldemort. Those who had been Death Eaters but were able to remain free after Voldemort's fall had something to do with betrayal.
It would be terrible if you were retaliated by a former colleague who escaped. The Cruciatus Curse will not let you suffer less just because you are a pure-blood wizard.
"Wouldn't the Dementors fill the gap by reproducing some baby Dementors?" "Can't Dementors be fertile?"
"Then send an Auror up?" "Go and tell the Auror office about this yourself and see if they ignore you."
The discussion was very lively, for fear that the reduction in guard power would lead to prisoners escaping.
Of course, Les also knew the troubles of these people. He glanced at the Hufflepuff standing next to him, and suddenly had an idea to solve their troubles.
