Chapter 608 Dumbledore was expelled

In the few days after school started, the castle was always enveloped in a very strange atmosphere.

The most intuitive manifestation is that there are more owls at breakfast, and a large number of letters are delivered every day.

At this time in previous years, everyone has not yet calmed down from the excitement of the holidays. There are always endless topics to talk about among friends, and there is never a moment of silence in the auditorium.

But now, people are just busy reading and replying to letters. No one is in the mood to chat. For those who don’t know, they think there will be an important exam tomorrow.

And this change has continued from the first day of school until now.

"My mom is asking me about school again."

While having breakfast that day, Justin Finch-Fletchley threw the half-read letter aside and muttered in a low voice: "She has written me five letters in the past few days, and my father, they It’s as if there is a madman in the castle who can break out and hurt people at any time.”

"Isn't it?" said Zachary Smith on the side: "The old fool Dumbledore, the Harry Potter who made bad jokes to everyone in order to attract everyone's attention..."

He had just finished writing a brief reply and slipped the envelope into the talon of the owl next to him.

"A principal with a high reputation is accompanying a liar to fool around. Their worries are still necessary."

"I don't think Professor Dumbledore would do such a thing." MacMillan muttered softly.

He and Finch-Fletchley had the same view, and both chose to believe Dumbledore, but because they were all classmates, he had nothing to argue with.

"Actually, my family read the Daily Prophet, and they kind of didn't want me to continue coming here... Of course, I still came, and I didn't want to give up magic."

Zachary Smith continued: "But accordingly, I have to write them every day to make sure I'm safe at school."

"Then it's really hard for you."

Just because McMillan doesn't speak doesn't mean others won't.

Mikel couldn't stand listening anymore and sarcastically said: "If you are so worried, then you might as well stay at home. It will be much safer and save a piece of parchment every day." .”

"I don't mind buying a piece of parchment every day." Zacharis, "And why should I give up my studies because of two liars? It's them who should leave."

"Dumbledore is not a liar." Ryan said seriously: "He is the greatest principal in the history of Hogwarts. Our family all chooses to believe in him."

"Me too." Mikel said.

"It's up to you." Zacharis said nonchalantly: "The Daily Prophet has already made it very clear. If you guys are still stubborn, there's nothing I can do about it."

"You are the one who is obsessed with it. You actually choose to believe in the Daily Prophet." Mikel said unceremoniously. "If you ask me to say that this newspaper is absolutely terrible, it actually doubts Dumbledore."

"No matter what, if you want me to believe it, unless he can produce strong evidence to prove that the mysterious man is really resurrected."

Zachary Smith pushed the empty plate in front of him forward, raised his neck and said: "Before this, I still prefer to believe the Daily Prophet.

"Oh, by the way, the Dumbledore you believe has been expelled from the Wizengamot and the International Confederation of Wizards because he is losing his mind."

After saying that, he stood up and left the auditorium.

The scene was a little awkward for a while. Everyone looked at each other and didn't know what to say.

"Some people don't believe it, and that's normal, right." Justin Finch-Fletchley tried to lighten the mood.

"Ha, who cares whether he believes it or not." Susan Bones curled her lips and said, "No matter who it is, they will regret it if they fire Professor Dumbledore!"

"You're right."

Under their leadership, the dining table quickly became lively again.

"Zachary Smith must have been talking nonsense just now."

Not far away, Cedric, who had listened to their entire conversation, frowned and said, "The Wizengamot and the International Confederation of Wizards...how could they expel Professor Dumbledore? This is impossible..."

"Actually, it's true."

Kyle looked at the "Daily Prophet" in his hand

It was clearly written on the front page that Dumbledore had indeed been fired.

Moreover, the entire article ridiculed Dumbledore as an old fool, and it was his own fault for being expelled.

Obviously, although some people trust Dumbledore unconditionally, many more people, like Fudge, are unwilling to believe that Voldemort has been resurrected.

When he attended the meeting held at the Pig's Head Bar during the holidays, Kyle noticed that the number of people present at that time was actually not that many, only about thirty or so.

So they took advantage of their numerical advantage and voted to expel Dumbledore.

The International Federation of Wizards expelled Dumbledore, the most powerful wizard... I have to say that this was the first time Kyle had seen such a magical operation.

But Dumbledore seemed to have guessed this outcome, just like what he said at the end of the school banquet...

"The mysterious man is very clever in creating conflict and hostility, and we must show the same unbreakable friendship and trust..."

Perhaps it was Voldemort's purpose to separate Dumbledore and most wizards. A disunited magical world was what he wanted to see.

And as long as he doesn't show up for a day, this misunderstanding will never be eliminated.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Dumbledore was expelled on purpose.

According to the newspaper, the vote in the Wizengamot was 19:21, which means that the proposal to expel Dumbledore was passed with a slim margin of two votes.

As far as Kyle Goo knew, there were fifty formal members of the Wizengamot with voting rights, but forty of them voted.

Where did the remaining ten people go?

Abstained? Or not participating at all.

The same goes for the International Federation of Wizards. There were not enough people to vote, and there was also only a two-vote gap.

If it was really intentional, Kyle couldn't figure out what Dumbledore's purpose was, to paralyze Voldemort? Or do you have other plans?

Kyle shook his head, did not continue to think about it, and instead picked up the letter next to him.

Sent from the Wizengamot, this is probably the only good news today.

The application for ruling on Lucius, Karkaroff, McNeil and Umbridge has ended.

There are two pieces of parchment in total, and the general content is that Lucius and others voluntarily gave up the accusation against themselves yesterday.

The progress was much faster than Kyle expected.

The original investigation of Barty Crouch lasted for more than half a year, but this time it ended in just a few days.

As for the result... the letter said that Lucius and the three of them would publicly apologize in the newspaper and be fined a sum of gold.

But Umbridge was not punished. According to the letter, she insisted that she was just deceived and that she would be fine.

Kyle always felt that there was a sense of peace and tranquility in it.

but……

He glanced at Fudge's name specifically mentioned in the letter...Okay, now it clicked.

"I really don't know how things will turn out." Cedric sighed, "What if the school board also believes the Daily Prophet? I don't want to see Professor Dumbledore in seventh grade. Someone else becomes the principal.”

"Don't worry about this." Kyle said, "The only identity Dumbledore will never give up is the principal of Hogwarts."
