Chapter 587 Two News
"Don't get so excited."
Looking at the increasingly excited Rita Skeeter, Kyle waved his hand and smiled: "I just made a joke, why did you take it seriously?"
Although she seemed to be a bit lustful, Kyle didn't want to push too hard.
How should I put it, it was a bit unexpected. Kyle didn't expect Rita Skeeter's reaction to be so big, and she even said that she would rather expose her Animagus.
At the same time, she seemed unable to accept the news of Voldemort's resurrection...or rather, she didn't believe it without substantial evidence.
If I had known better, I would have taken a picture of Voldemort.
Kyle remembered that he smiled happily after his resurrection, and he might even be selected for the "Wizard Weekly" Most Charming Smile Award.
Of course, that is if he had the time at the time.
"You better really be kidding."
Rita Skeeter's expression softened a lot, but she was still a little wary.
"Don't worry." Kyle said, "I asked you to come this time because of something else."
Rita Skeeter, who was about to leave, reluctantly sat back when she heard these words.She really didn't want to stay for a minute longer, but she had no choice but to let her have the leverage in the opponent's hands.
And she also discovered that the Kyle and Dumbledore in front of her were completely different people. Although they looked harmless, they were much more difficult to deal with than most of the people she had met before.
Take the Triwizard Tournament as an example. Rita Skeeter still remembers what Kyle said to prevent her from writing a report about him.
He kept saying that he was destined to lose, and also said that he wanted to find a reason to throw away the responsibility, but in the end he won the championship, and he was the undisputed champion.
She had watched all the competitions, and Kyle had an absolute advantage in every competition... It felt like the other two were just here to make up the numbers.
Thinking about it now, Rita Skeeter felt like she was a troll for actually believing Kyle's words, and she still believed them deeply.
When she went back that day, she even wrote an article that severely criticized Kyle overnight and kept it at home, waiting to be published after the Triwizard Tournament.
But since Kyle discovered that she was an Animagus, she tore up the article and threw it away.
"What's wrong with you?" Rita Skeeter asked angrily.
"About Fudge." Kyle looked around and lowered his voice: "I admire Minister Fudge very much, and I just want to know more about his deeds...well, some deeds that people don't know."
"You've got the wrong person. Fudge is the Minister of Magic."
Rita Skeeter pushed up her ugly glasses, "And you said it was an unknown deed, so how could I possibly know it? If you really admire Minister Fudge, go read his autobiography.
"It's available at Flourish and Blott Bookstore, fifteen galleons a copy."
"Fifteen Galleons... I'm just a student, so I can't afford such an expensive thing." Kyle said casually.
"Just now you said you were not short of money."
"Yes, there is no shortage." Kyle said, "But that doesn't mean I can afford a book worth fifteen galleons."
Then, Kyle didn't say anything else, but directly took a photo on the table, which showed the entire process of Rita Skeeter's Animagus transformation.
"Snapped!"
In just the blink of an eye, the photo was covered by a handbag.
"Damn it, you actually took it out like this? What if someone sees it?"
"No," Kyle said, "I checked and there's no one around...and no bugs.
"How about this reward? Think about it?"
Rita Skeeter's breathing became much heavier, and Kyle didn't urge her. He just came to the bar and got her another glass of butterbeer.
Anyway, Old Tom’s treat is not free of charge.
<divclass="contentadv">Rita Skeeter drank half the glass in one breath, and then said: "I want another hundred galleons, and you must promise not to tell me."
"No problem, I promise it in Dumbledore's name."
"Why Dumbledore."
"Then I guarantee it in my name, do you believe it?"
Subconsciously, Rita Skeeter thought of the scene where Kyle vowed that he would lose.
She didn't say anything more, but looked around cautiously. Kyle understood immediately, took out his wand, and whispered:
"Close your earplugs and listen!"
"Okay, now no one around will hear our conversation."
Then Rita Skeeter took out a special speculum and saw that it didn't respond, then she whispered:
"Remember that outrageous magical animal smuggling incident a few years ago?"
Kyle nodded. He was forced to participate in the entire process of capturing Oren in the Forbidden Forest. Of course he remembered.
"According to insiders, he was involved in this. The reason why the striker was so eager to catch the fish that slipped through the net was because the other party had evidence.
"The man used magic to write everything down, in a notebook."
Kyle raised an eyebrow.
He remembered that when he was in the Forbidden Forest, Oren had also said that Striker was chasing him to get a notebook, but he didn't expect it to be because of this.
No wonder there were only Strikers and not a single Auror in the Forbidden Forest that time, and co-author Fudge was also involved.
Aurors are different from strikers. They are not so obedient to the Minister of Magic. If he sees the contents of the notebook, it will not be so easy for Fudge to cover up the truth.
Kyle thought for a while, took out ten Galleons and put them on the table.
"Wait, this is different from what was promised." Rita Skeeter said dissatisfied: "Why are there only ten galleons!"
"Do you want to listen to what you just said...Does a Minister of Magic need to be involved in the smuggling of magical animals? Such outrageous news is ten galleons too much. I even suspect that you are trying to trick me."
"I'm sure not," Rita Skeeter said seriously, "and he wasn't even a minister when he got involved."
When it comes to picking up secrets, Rita Skeeter doesn't allow anyone to question her expertise.
This was what she really heard. At a dance a few years ago, she used her Animagus to sneak in and eavesdrop on the news, and happened to hear Fudge secretly discussing this with another person.
"If you can take out the notebook, I can give you five hundred galleons." Kyle said, "But you have nothing now, who knows whether it is true or not."
"Ha, if I really had a notebook, it would be more than five hundred galleons." Rita Skeeter muttered, but did not refute anything.
She first carefully put the photo into the compartment of her handbag, and then took away the galleons on the table.
"In addition, I will give you another piece of news." She smacked her lips, as if the revelation just now made her a little addicted, and she regarded Kyle as another form of reporting.
"There is a senior deputy minister in the Ministry of Magic named Dolores Umbridge. Not only did she pretend to be a pure-blood, she also repeatedly took the credit of other colleagues and claimed it as her own..."
Kyle was startled for a moment, then said nonchalantly: "What she does is none of my business."
Umbridge is not important, as long as Fudge is dealt with, she is just a helper.
"Don't worry." Rita Skeeter said with a smile, "In fact, these ministers also knew it, but not only did he say nothing, but he helped cover up the fact.
"I know a guy who was sacked because of this and is now working on a farm in Cornwall."
After saying that, she looked at Kyle with a smile.
Seeing this, Kyle took out fifty galleons and placed it on the table again.
"Don't get so excited."
Looking at the increasingly excited Rita Skeeter, Kyle waved his hand and smiled: "I just made a joke, why did you take it seriously?"
