Chapter 962: for myself

On the day he became Assistant Minister, Percy locked himself in the room, thinking hard about what to do next. He knew that he had to stand in line, especially if he wanted to hold the position of Assistant Minister, he had to make a decision between Fudge and Dumbledore. The right choice.

Was Dumbledore really so confused?

Of course Percy wasn't foolish enough to think that, anyone with any brains knew exactly what was going on at the Ministry of Magic.

The actions of "Saint" Albus Dumbledore obviously touched Fudge's interests, which led to a direct break between the two who had a good relationship.

This kind of thing is actually quite normal. Just look at the bad ideas Dumbledore gave Fudge. Maybe he doesn't have any special ideas, but it's not surprising that Fudge, as a politician, has other ideas.

At present, Dumbledore may face a series of pressures, and Percy is not interested at all to join in the fun, otherwise his future is estimated to be dead, and it is undoubtedly the best choice to stand on Fudge's side, even if Fudge may step down in the future, but Percy The benefits are already in hand.

To develop a good Ministry of Magic official, you need to give enough experience, Assistant Minister is a great position.

If you want to be promoted in the future, although the network resources are indispensable, your own ability must be strong enough, and if you want to have a good ability, you need to go through experience and trial and error, and the resources of the Ministry of Magic are limited.

However, the idea of ​​Fudge making him a spy seemed ridiculous to Percy. He suspects that this is a bad idea that Fudge came up with without thinking. He really wants to climb up, but he has never thought of selling out his family. If his father is expelled from the Ministry of Magic, the family's financial resources will be cut off. How to live, Percy has four siblings who are still studying at Hogwarts, and they need a lot of tuition every year. Do they count on the unreliable Bill and Charlie to support the family's economy?

No kidding, they are struggling to support themselves, let alone other people.

Percy felt inexplicably sad every time he thought of the empty Gringotts vault.

How could his father be so stupid? The wizards in the whole department are trying to distance themselves from Dumbledore. Although most of them are pretending to be seen by Fudge, but... at least they have to pretend to fool Fudge first.

If he was fired from the Ministry of Magic, would he still count on the Order of the Phoenix to help him find a job?

Fred and George, who were now asking him about funny product patents, became the most worry-free in the family. He knew that the two mischievous rascals were ready to follow Albert to open their own shop.

Percy plans to move out of the house. As long as he moves out, Fudge will ask him to inquire about the family's information. Naturally, he can't count on it, but what should he do to prevent Fudge from doubting himself?

After finally getting the position of Assistant Minister, Percy didn't want to lose it inexplicably, but it was related to his future. If he wanted to do well, he had to be flexible enough.

However, don't think Fudge is too stupid, otherwise he will be a real fool. If he pretends to be too fake, he will definitely be seen, and he must remind the stupid father, lest he will be caught by Fudge one day. To be fired, cut off the family's source of income.

At this moment, Percy thought of Albert. He felt that the guy might have expected this situation from the beginning, thinking about the last letter the other party wrote to him a while ago.

The relationship over there has to be temporarily cut off. After all, Albert is very hateful now, and he is obviously very aware of this.

I heard that Fudge was disarmed a while ago, and Amelia Burns was trapped abroad. The Aurors searched for a long time and couldn't find anyone. In the end, Amelia Burns came back by herself. .

"It's all a bunch of uneasy guys!" Percy muttered, and patted his cheek hard in the mirror, showing a smug smile, he knew it was time for him to start acting.

While everyone was eating, Percy triumphantly announced to everyone the good news of his promotion.

The Weasley family, who had been discussing joining the Order of the Phoenix, fell silent for a moment.

"You were promoted?" Fred was shocked. "They actually promoted you?"

"Why not?" Percy glared at his brother in dissatisfaction.

"I thought you got into a lot of trouble with Crouch." George also wondered, this fact was too abnormal.

"That's just an excuse they made for themselves. As long as you use your brain, you will know that no one will actively suspect that there is something wrong with their boss. Does this mean they don't want to work at the Ministry of Magic?" Percy said contemptuously: "Mr. Crouch's investigation It's over, they think I'm good, so they give me a promotion."

The Weasleys looked at each other in disbelief.

Sensing something was wrong, Mr. Weasley asked tentatively, "What kind of position did they give you."

"A position in the Office of the Minister of Magic, I became Minister Fudge's assistant." Percy excitedly announced the good news to everyone.

For someone just a year out of Hogwarts, that's a job well-requested. However, no one in the Weasleys was happy about Percy's promotion, because some time ago, Fudge was furious in the Ministry and banned anyone from having any contact with Dumbledore.

Now that Percy is an Assistant Minister, it's a weird thing to do.

"It's weird. I suspect that Fudge put you in his office just to use you to spy on our house, or—to spy on Dumbledore." Mr. Weasley put down his knife and fork and stared at his son, "You accepted?"

The atmosphere in the kitchen suddenly became weird, and everyone held their breath.

"Yes, I promise." Percy admitted directly.

"How can you promise to be watched over your family?" Mrs Weasley looked at her son angrily, realizing that something was about to happen.

"Why not." Percy looked at his father and said, "You probably don't know how bad your situation is at the Ministry, and you probably don't know, because of your relationship, I have had a good time at the Ministry of Magic. How hard people look at me when they hear my name is Weasley, ever since I entered the Ministry, I've been struggling desperately to get rid of your bad reputation, otherwise there's no hope at all To be promoted, you can only stay at the bottom, do you know how desperate it is? Fortunately, I was the only one in my family who entered the Ministry of Magic, otherwise do you know how many people would blame you for this?"

Percy ignored Mr. Weasley's gradually contorted face, and revealed all his sufferings this year.

"You haven't even thought about my situation, why you haven't been improved for so many years, and why your family's situation is so bad. Don't you really think about the reason at all?"

"Are you finished?"

Mr. Weasley slammed the plate in front of him to the ground, staring at his son dissatisfiedly. If Mrs. Weasley hadn't pulled it, he would probably have gone up and beat him.

"Percy, you should apologize to your father." Bill stared at his brother with a frown, and he suddenly felt that Percy was strange.

"Fudge is already suspicious of you," Percy warned coldly. "He's considering whether to kick you out of the Ministry of Magic. If you lose your current job, what will happen at home, Fred, George, Ron You and Ginny are still in school, are you planning to put them out of school? You have no idea how hard they are at school?"

"Shut up Percy."

Bill felt that Percy was going too far, and planned to stop the other party from continuing.

"Bill, you haven't experienced it yourself. You don't know how many strange looks you need to endure when you go to school with a second-hand book and a second-hand robe. Especially in the first year of freshmen, I was often laughed at." Percy glared at his father angrily: "Don't you know that this is likely to make us lose our heads in front of others?"

The others all stared at Percy in stunned eyes, although Percy was indeed right, but... how dare he say it like that.

At some point, Mrs Weasley began to cry, and everyone glared at Percy, who thought he was going too far.

"I know you want to join the Order of the Phoenix, but have you really not considered Dumbledore's current situation? He has a lot of big troubles himself, and you are now teaming up with Dumbledore, this is to be with him Unlucky together? It's stupid to the extreme." Percy glared at his father without showing weakness, and sneered: "Everyone thinks Dumbledore is old and confused, let Azkaban get out of the control of the Dementor, You dare to say the bad idea of ​​sending peace messengers to giants, don't you really know what will happen if Azkaban is freed from the control of the Dementors? Can sending peace messengers to giants really win over giants?"

"Dumbledore has his reasons for doing that. The Mysterious Man came back to Percy, and both Harry and Dumbledore saw it with their own eyes." Mrs. Weasley looked at her son with pleading eyes, hoping that Percy would not continue to make trouble. down.

"Without evidence, who would believe it?" The expression on Percy's face became even more bizarre: "The only evidence now is what they said, however, this alone cannot convince anyone, especially Dumbledore's stupid words. After that, many people thought he was old and confused and thought he was untrustworthy."

"Albert thought for a long time that the mysterious man would come back. He said that in the next few years, the entire magic world would be in chaos." Fred and George looked at each other and reminded: "I remember you and his The relationship is not bad, you should know his divination ability!"

"Have you seen Albert come out and claim that You-Know-Who is back?" Percy looked at his brother and asked, "No, Albert didn't do that, because he knew very well that without evidence, he was rambunctious. What a foolish thing it is to spread the news of the return of the mysterious man. Most of the wizards in the entire Ministry of Magic are working overtime, because Dumbledore spread rumors indiscriminately, and everyone gritted their teeth in hatred for Dumbledore's intentional troubles. "

"If Dumbledore really wanted to solve all the troubles, he should have offered to kill all the wicked prisoners in Azkaban, and let the giants be wiped out from England, instead of suggesting that there is no way to succeed at all. stupid advice to trouble everyone."

"Are you finished?" Mr. Weasley smashed his contents at Percy.

"I know very well who I should be loyal to. If you insist on betraying the Ministry of Magic and joining that illegal organization, then I will no longer belong to this family." Percy dodged what Mr. Weasley had thrown at him and went upstairs to pack his bags. , Apparating away from the Weasleys.

Mrs. Weasley realized something was wrong only after the sound of Apparition from upstairs, and when she hurried upstairs, she found that Percy's things were missing.

Percy is gone, out of the house.

"He's gone." Mrs Weasley looked like she might break down at any moment.

"Let him go, and treat me like I don't have this son!" Mr. Weasley said indifferently, and the hall fell into an eerie silence.

"No, Arthur, you can't do that."

Mrs Weasley was going to find Percy, to talk to him, and she could probably guess where Percy was going.

In fact, there aren't many places Percy can go now.

After everyone hurriedly finished eating, they gathered in Bill's room to discuss the matter, and soon they heard the sound of things being thrown downstairs.

"It's weird," George said directly.

"What's so weird?" Bill asked, puzzled.

"Percy is not a fool, and it is impossible to guess the return of the mysterious man." Fred analyzed carefully: "Then why did he do that?"

"Why?" Ginny was confused.

"Because Percy is a power-hungry idiot," Fred sneered.

"Assistant Minister of Magic is undoubtedly a good job for him." George said helplessly: "He has been very depressed in recent months, you know, Percy wants to be Minister of Magic, so ... he chose to believe. Ministry of Magic, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com This is more beneficial for him, and he can take this opportunity to climb up."

"So, he didn't hesitate to fall out with his father and leave our house?"

"Don't be surprised, he's just standing in line." George said helplessly, "Standing on the side that is more favorable to him."

"Dad didn't think about these questions?"

Bill suddenly realized something and looked at Fred and George with strange eyes.

"He is probably mad!" Fred shrugged and said, "Don't look at me like that. After spending a long time with Albert, the way of thinking will always become a bit similar to his."

"Is that really the case?" Ron stared at the twins dumbfounded.

"Probably!" Fred shrugged and said, "Percy is a selfish idiot. I'm not surprised that he would do this."

"Many issues are actually related to interests, and Fudge and Dumbledore fell out because of this reason." George explained to several people, "Dumbledore's actions will pull Fudge from the position of Minister of Magic, this kind of thing Fudge Naturally intolerable, in order to maintain his status and power, Fudge can only touch Dumbledore and Harry in the dark, denying that the mysterious man has been resurrected."

"But…"

"There's nothing good about it," Fred interrupted, "Fudge would never tolerate losing his ministerial position, because it would greatly damage his interests, and the resurrection of the mysterious man is a matter of the entire British wizarding world, and the same What does he have to do with Fudge, maybe he has stepped down."

"That's why Albert hates politicians." George spread his hands and said, "They always say that they have no morals and will do anything for their own benefit."
