Chapter 322 Rice: I don’t think Cornelius Fudge is qualified for the devil’s job
Chapter 322 Rice: I don’t think Cornelius Fudge is qualified for the position of Minister of Magic
"Sister! Prefect is a very important position. It is responsible for assisting professors in managing the school. Only students with excellent academic performance, responsibility and dedication can hold the position." Astoria glared at her sister with a dissatisfied look: "No one wants to run for prefect just because the prefect's bath is bigger!"
"But think about it, it's a big bath! After a tiring day, you can put a pool of hot water in it, and then you can stretch your limbs in it and release all the fatigue from your body - it can also massage you Here!" Daphne patted Astoria's butt.
The scene described by her sister made Astoria feel a little moved: she really couldn't resist the temptation of the big bath, and becoming a prefect was also a way to prove herself...
Daphne continued: "Besides me and Les, who else is qualified to be a prefect? Malfoy?"
She let out a loud scoff.
In her opinion, the selection of prefect seems to be a multiple-choice question, but in fact it is a fill-in-the-blank question. The only standard answers are herself and Les, and no points will be awarded for filling in other questions.
Looking at her confident sister, Astoria fell into silence again: These days, even people like her sister can become prefects. Slytherin House is really in decline.
The two of them soaked in the bathtub for a long time, until the water became a little cold. Then they got out of it and wrapped the bathrobes they had prepared in advance around themselves.
"That potion seems to be really effective. I feel like my arms are getting a lot whiter." Daphne carefully observed the condition of her skin and then exclaimed in surprise.
"Don't you think about how long you have been in the water!" Astoria complained unbearably. She felt that her sister was being charged an IQ tax.
After taking a shower, the two used magic to dry their hair. Returning to the dormitory, lying down on the soft big bed, he soon fell asleep.
While Daphne and Astoria were enjoying the hot bath, Les finished cleaning himself early and returned to the dormitory.
He did not rush to bed, but took out a roll of parchment, a quill pen and a plate of sweets, set up a small table on the bed, and began to write a letter.
He was writing to Henry Greengrass.
As for the content of the letter, it is naturally related to what just happened.
[Dear Henry,
Hello. Dementors attacked Hogwarts today - don't worry, they were buried and no one was harmed. I need you to help me find out two things now.
1. Does the Ministry of Magic send anyone to monitor the dementors around Hogwarts? How strong is the Ministry of Magic's restraint on dementors?
2. Who insisted on using dementors to blockade Hogwarts? If it's Minister Cornelius Fudge, I wonder why he's doing this.
Looking forward to your reply and sincere blessings to you,
Les Lint]
Rice's letter was short, so short that it left a large blank space on the parchment.
After writing the letter, he sent it out, then lay back on the bed and slept. After waking up, Henry's reply had been delivered.
He opened the letter, glanced at it and sneered: The Ministry of Magic did not send anyone to control the dementors, and even if it sent people, they could not effectively restrain them. Fudge sent dementors to surround Hogwarts in order to wait and catch the escaped prisoner Sirius.
After reading Henry's reply, Les took two deep breaths to calm down.
Then he wrote a reply to Henry. This time the letter was shorter than the last one, as short as only one sentence.
[I do not think Cornelius Fudge is qualified for the position of Minister for Magic. 】
After receiving the reply, Henry Greengrass narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and began to write letters to his friends.
Les's letters were very short, but Henry's were extremely long, and they continued writing one after another until late into the night.
If that lord thinks that Connelly is not suitable to be Minister for Magic, then Connelly is not suitable to be Minister for Magic.
……
Cornelius Fudge didn't know that he had offended a group of people inexplicably. He was now worried about other things.
After arriving at his office this morning, he received two messages.
The first one was sent by the employee of the Ministry of Magic who was responsible for sending "supplies" to the dementors. He reported that the dementors around Hogwarts had disappeared.
After seeing this news, Fudge felt like his scalp was exploding: Those were hundreds of dementors, not a hundred stray cats! Can this kind of thing be thrown away casually? Then he caught a glimpse of the Hogwarts school emblem on the letter below, and Fudge suddenly felt that something was not good.
When he opened it, he found that it was a letter written to him by Dumbledore.
After reading the letter, he got good news and bad news——
The good news is that the whereabouts of the Dementors have been found.
The bad news is that they broke into Hogwarts.
After seeing Dumbledore's words, Fudge felt like he was breaking out in a cold sweat: If any student was harmed, he would be doomed!
After he continued to read a few lines, Fudge relaxed again - no one was hurt, Dumbledore, the old man, was really making a fuss, and he would tell them not to enter Hogwarts later.
After reading Dumbledore's letter, Fudge's mood turned to shock, because all the dementors he sent around Hogwarts were wiped out!
According to Dumbledore, they were not driven away by the Patronus Curse, but "buried".
When he saw this news, Fudge's first reaction was that Dumbledore was probably not amusing himself, but when he calmed down and thought about it, he felt that he had no such motive, and the dementors were really missing again.
He was going to Hogwarts anyway.
Fudge put the silk hat he had just taken off back on his head and hurriedly walked out of the office. He left in a hurry and did not notice that many familiar faces in the ministry did not come to work today.
At this time, all the absent faces appeared in Greengrass Manor and were invited to the reception room by Henry.
The reception room was packed with talkmakers from pure-blood families, senior officials from the Ministry of Magic, and other prominent figures in the wizarding world. One thing they had in common was that their children were currently attending Hogwarts.
After everyone was basically present, Mr. Henry cleared his throat and said to the people present: "I believe everyone who comes here has read my letter, right? Yesterday, Hogwarts was attacked by dementors. Collective invasion."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lucius raised his cane and interrupted Mr. Henry's words.
"With all due respect, may I ask Mr. Henry, how did you know that Dementors invaded Hogwarts yesterday? My son goes to school at Hogwarts, and he did not send me a letter to tell me about this shocking incident. "
Henry glanced at him and said coldly: "That's because the dementors triggered the defense mechanism of Hogwarts, and they have all been 'buried'."
Lucius:? ? ?
