Chapter 418 Blake: What? Am I The Culprit?
Blake glanced at the picture in the newspaper of Sirius, who was moving and shouting silently.
Then he put the newspaper on the table.
"I can only say that this matter is indeed a bit strange."
The evidence was conclusive, and then Dumbledore came to tell the truth in person.
The current Fudge is still the same Fudge that Dumbledore was from.
Logically speaking, this is a matter of course.
The next step should be to directly cancel the wanted order and then clarify the truth of the whole matter in the newspaper.
It would be nice to finally take Peter back for trial.
But now it seems that the Ministry of Magic has not done this.
On the contrary, he seemed to be anxious to kill Sirius as soon as possible.
Cassandra wanted to say something else.
But Blake raised a hand to stop her.
"It's better not to talk about it here."
At this time, more and more students in the auditorium have begun to come to eat.
There are too many people and it is really not the place to talk about things.
Blake picked up the honey water and drank it in one gulp.
He took the newspaper and walked out of the auditorium.
Cassandra followed.
As for Hannah………
She did hear two sentences.
But she didn't pay much attention.
Because she believes that no matter how big the problem is, Blake can handle it.
Instead of worrying about whether Blake was in trouble, it would be more practical to fill his stomach.
"What do we do now?"
On the way, Cassandra looked around and saw that no one was around, then asked in a low voice.
"Of course we found Sirius before the Ministry of Magic did."
Blake answered calmly.
"But... we don't know where he is." Cassandra spread her hands.
"I already have a solution."
Blake said and looked at the Daily Prophet in his hand.
"Now, I have to ask if Professor Dumbledore is back..."
"It stands to reason that this matter is not complicated. If everything goes well, Professor Dumbledore should have returned last night.
"If, until now, he had been left at the Ministry without knowing anything about it...
"Then this matter won't be so easy to handle..."
Blake touched his chin, seeming to smell a conspiracy.
Of course, there may be no conspiracy, but someone simply wants Sirius to die.
Let this case that can be vindicated become an ironclad case that cannot be vindicated.
As for who it is, it depends on who is most beneficial if Sirius dies.
Maybe it's someone from the Ministry of Magic, or maybe it's Fudge himself.
Anyway, in Blake's opinion, the big guys in the Ministry of Magic are actually very powerful.
Fudge couldn't completely calm them down yet.
Otherwise, there was no need for him to admire Dumbledore's reputation so much.
Over the years, whenever he made a big decision, he would send a letter to Dumbledore.
Is it really that he is incompetent?
Of course not. How can someone who can become the Minister of Magic be a idiot?
Blake believed that it was because Fudge was not on a stable footing and needed a capable boss to support him.
Although Dumbledore showed no interest in power.
But it doesn't matter.
Anyway, no matter what the decision is, as long as Fudge lives it with Dumbledore.
In the eyes of outsiders, it was considered the result of a joint discussion between Fudge and Dumbledore.
Those who were unconvinced did not understand Dumbledore's attitude and were afraid of Dumbledore, so they would not embarrass Fudge too much.
In this case, Fudge has been stable for several years.
Perhaps, wait until those thorns are completely pulled out by him.
It was time for Fudge to give up on Dumbledore's crutch.
Now it seems... Fudge seems to be in trouble too?
The thorns in the Ministry of Magic are not easy to deal with, and his backer Dumbledore is also not easy to offend.
It stands to reason that Fudge still doesn't have the ability to leave Bullido and become independent on his own.
Therefore, he should choose to support Dumbledore.
But now, the news in the Daily Prophet shows that Fudge has chosen to throw away Dumbledore's "stick" now
This is a bit interesting.
Blake was still walking towards the principal's office when he happened to see Professor McGonagall who had just come down the stairs.
"Good morning, Professor." Blake said politely.
"Oh... Good day, Blake. But now, it's already noon." Professor McGonagall said meticulously.
"Okay...Good day, professor, did you just come back from the principal's office?"
"Well... Albus went to the Ministry of Magic yesterday and hasn't come back yet. No one came to take Peter away last night. And today's newspaper..."
Professor McGonagall had a worried look on his face.
Obviously, she also noticed the abnormality in the Ministry of Magic.
"Professor McGonagall, don't worry, I believe Professor Dumbledore will sort these things out."
Blake seemed very confident in Dumbledore.
"I hope...it's just that I have sent two owls to deliver a message to him, but...a morning has passed and there is still no news.
Professor McGonagall frowned, with deep concern on his face.
Blake had known what was going on since he heard Professor McGonagall say that Dumbledore hadn't come back until now.
Obviously, Fudge has given up on Dumbledore as his backer.
Now that Fudge has given up on Dumbledore, he naturally doesn't care if he offends him.
Therefore, it is strange that the letter from Hogwarts could reach Dumbledore's hands.
If Blake guessed correctly.
Dumbledore must still be busy with what Fudge told him about other seemingly serious, but actually not serious, unrelated things.
"Maybe the owl flew too slowly, or maybe it missed Professor Dumbledore in the air.
"It's okay, just send another letter..."
Blake stretched out his arms and called softly, "Fox!"
There was a flash of red light.
Phoenix Fox stood on Blake's arm and rubbed his head on Blake's face affectionately.
The reason why Blake called Fox to deliver the message instead of his own Phoenix was because most of his main magical animals were put into Poké Balls to strengthen their bloodlines.
Ice Phoenix Young Girl is no exception.
So, if you just want to send a letter, just contact Fox.
Anyway, this phoenix is idle, and I can just control it.
Seeing this, Professor McGonagall quickly took out a piece of parchment.
Blake immediately handed a pen to Professor McGonagall who had not yet found the quill.
After a while, Professor McGonagall took down the parchment with writing on it, folded it and handed it to Fox.
"Fawkes, put the letter in the hands of Professor Dumbledore. Don't send it directly."
Blake whispered in Fox's ear.
Although Blake's voice was low, Professor McGonagall naturally heard it because he stood close.
She looked at Blake suspiciously, "Looking at your tone...could it be that someone intercepted my letter to Albus?
"Professor, it should be said that...every letter from Hogwarts has been read in advance...whether it is yours or the letter that Professor Dumbledore sent to Minister Fudge before..." .
"But...why is this?" Professor McGonagall was a little confused.
Blake did not answer this question, but asked solemnly: "I want to ask you a question, that is, when did you write your first letter, and did you mention Xiaodiao?"
Peter?”
Professor McGonagall replied: "The first letter was sent last night. It just asked when Albus would be back. It didn't mention Peter."
"What about the second letter?" Blake asked.
"Well...just an hour ago, I mentioned Peter in my letter this time...is there any problem?" Professor McGonagall asked in confusion.
"Professor McGonagall, now may not be the time to ask this..." Blake said: "If I guess correctly, the people sent by the Ministry of Magic to take away Peter are coming soon!"
"Well, it should have come a long time ago." Professor McGonagall said, "Bring Peter back for interrogation sooner, and then the truth will be revealed sooner."
"No...Professor, please do not hand Peter over to these people from the Ministry of Magic. At least...not to this group of people." Blake said solemnly.
"Ah? Why is this?"
"Someone from the Ministry of Magic intercepted your letter, so they know that the reason why Dumbledore went to Fudge last night was to rehabilitate Sirius!"
"Professor...someone in the Ministry of Magic wants Sirius to die, and to achieve this, Peter is the key."
"But...wait..." Professor McGonagall was a little confused by Blake.
Blake knew that if she couldn't convince Professor McGonagall, she wouldn't cooperate with him.
"Professor, Professor Dumbledore went to the Ministry of Magic last night and met with Minister Fudge.
Therefore, Minister Fudge must already know that Peter is at Hogwarts!"
"Then why didn't any of them come to take Peter away last night?"
"From last night to now, the Ministry of Magic has been turning a deaf ear to Peter, who is supposed to be a repeat offender. Why is this?"
Professor McGonagall nodded, "Yeah...that's weird."
"While Minister Fudge was trying to find a way to keep Professor Dumbledore in the Ministry of Magic, he also strengthened Sirius' bounty in the newspaper..."
"In my opinion, after thinking about it this night, he compromised some things with some people... However, for some unknown reason, he didn't seem to tell those people, Peter Right here at Hogwarts,"
"And your letter an hour ago... told those people that Peter is at Hogwarts!"
Professor McGonagall pursed her lips tightly, and she somewhat understood what Blake wanted to express.
Although I think Blake's statement is a bit ridiculous.
But... Professor McGonagall still has great trust in Blake because of his understanding of Blake's past "records".
If anyone else said so...
Professor McGonagall was too embarrassed to talk to him.
"Well...if your guess is wrong, the worst thing you can do is miss this opportunity to be redressed. If you miss this time, there will be a next time."
"But, if what you said is right...then Peter is in danger. If something happens to Peter, Sirius will be..."
"It's just a lie... To be on the safe side, I will do what you say."
Professor McGonagall left in a hurry. She had to tell Snape to hide Peter.
She planned to wait until someone from the Ministry of Magic came to tell them that Peter had run away.
If it turns out that this was just an own mistake, it's not as serious as Blake thought.
Then Peter can be "caught back" at any time.
Seeing Professor McGonagall leave, Cassandra couldn't help but ask: "Is it really that serious?"
"It wouldn't have been this serious." Blake spread his hands helplessly. "It's just that something unexpected happened..."
He just thought of a possibility...
Perhaps Fudge's compromise this time and his plan to give up on Dumbledore early were due to his butterfly wings.
There is only one possibility for a person who cannot stand firmly to throw away his crutches, that is, he finds another better crutch...
Even changed to a more comfortable wheelchair
In the entire Ministry of Magic, there was only one person who could make Fudge choose to give up on Dumbledore...
Grindelwald!
Yes, that's Grindelwald.
The Grindelwald who worked at the British Ministry of Magic and became an Honorary Advisor to the Minister because of political donations!
For Fudge, Dumbledore is a good supporter.
But there are too many backing principles...
It takes a lot of effort to get his help.
But Grindelwald is different.
He has an influence that is comparable to that of Dumbledore, and in this influence, having more influence is a bad reputation!
If those thorns are for fear of Dumbledore, then for Grindelwald...those thorns are for fear!
The most important thing is that Grindelwald really has no principles sometimes.
Fudge knows exactly how the "Daily Prophet" changed owners!
Therefore, Grindelwald's crutch is more comfortable than Dumbledore's!
Fudge is using Grindelwald's name to do things, who among those thorns dares to call him out?
Therefore, Fudge plans to rely on Grindelwald as his backer in the future.
And it just so happens that Fudge is also useful to Grindelwald.
He finally used money to soften Fudge, and now that Fudge has taken the initiative, of course he will not object at all.
If you can control Fudge, you can nominally control the British Ministry of Magic!
As it happens, Gee knew there was a feud between Grindelwald and Dumbledore.
After all, Dumbledore sent Grindelwald to prison for decades.
Therefore, in order to please Grindelwald, cheating Dumbledore is Fudge's vote.
In addition, Fudge didn't really want to redress Sirius' case, so
The two parties hit it off immediately, and Fudge played it directly for Dumbledore.
All of this is not going well, in the final analysis...
It was actually because Grindelwald was released from prison.
And the reason why Grindelwald was released from prison was because of Blake...
After Blake thought about this, his chin turned a little red.
Unexpectedly, the final culprit turned out to be myself...
"This is the relationship between cause and effect...if..."
At this time, Blake thought of the time travel that he would be going on in the near future.
Whatever you change in the current timeline can cause huge changes in the future.
Once you go back in time... you need to be even more cautious!
