Chapter 107

The new situation is getting more serious.

Argus did want to use recent events to suppress Dumbledore's reputation, but he didn't expect to make it so big!

It is well known that Dumbledore's actions are not in line with people's hearts.

But to say that he will be suspended or even dismissed from the position of headmaster is far from enough!

Once the position of headmaster is suspended, most people's dissatisfaction with Dumbledore will immediately disappear.

Even thinking back to Dumbledore's contribution to Hogwarts over the years, they will stand up for him!

All his faults will never be mentioned again!

This is extremely unfavorable for Argus's subsequent actions!

He looked at Lucius and sighed slightly.

The thing has been done, there is no place to buy regret medicine.

Instead of complaining here, it is better to think of ways to save it.

"Mr. Malfoy, you are too anxious about this matter."

"Anxious?" Lucius was puzzled.

"Yes, Dumbledore can leave the school, but he must leave under the curse of students and parents, not by you using the school board to forcibly expel him."

"I think you should understand the difference."

"Besides, his status cannot be shaken by one or two failures. If you do this, it will arouse the sympathy of students and parents for Dumbledore."

"These things are probably going to be turned over."

Lucius's face changed again and again.

The school board has coveted Hogwarts for a long time. He only thought that Dumbledore's failure this time could be done together with the Ministry of Magic.

Take the opportunity to drag Dumbledore into the water.

But he ignored the ideas of other civilian wizards!

No matter how wrong Dumbledore was, he defeated two Dark Lords and made great contributions to the wizarding world.

He has a prestige among civilian wizards that ordinary people cannot reach.

He did this and ended up making things worse.

Seeing Lucius's expression gradually darken, Argus said nothing more.

He said to comfort him, "Let's leave it at that. I'll deal with it later."

"You guys pretend to investigate in the next few days, and then issue a statement to ask Dumbledore to come back."

"That's the only way."

Lucius was no longer as high-spirited as when he came. When he left, his back was dejected.

...

Argus had finished his morning class and was planning to drag Draco to the library.

Now that this happened, he had no intention of going to the library.

He turned and walked towards the principal's office.

He didn't know how long it would take for Dumbledore to figure this out. He might be able to get some benefits now that he might not be able to react.

He walked all the way to the door of the principal's office on the eighth floor.

Suddenly I remembered that I didn't seem to know today's password.

In desperation, I took out the recent list of goods of Honeydukes Candy Store from my pocket.

Started from the beginning and read them one by one.

"Lemon Snow Treasure!"

"Cockroach Pile!"

"Sizzle Bee Candy!"

"Toffee Finger Candy!"

"..."

After reading about a dozen, the stone beast at the door finally opened.

But it was empty inside, not even a hair could be seen.

"You're a step too late?"

"Dumbledore, this old man, is too fast, isn't he?"

Agus complained and was about to leave.

Seeing a pile of headmaster portraits hanging on the wall, he turned around and saluted.

He asked politely: "Good morning, headmasters. I would like to ask, where is Headmaster Dumbledore?"

"Little wizard, you're a step too late. He is not the headmaster now. If you have anything, go to your dean first!"

An old man with a sheep's beard answered nonchalantly.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, kid, wait here for a while, he should be back soon."

A kind old lady smiled and motioned Argus to sit down.

As soon as the voice fell, a flame flashed in the headmaster's office.

Dumbledore's figure appeared in front of the headmaster's desk.

When he saw Argus, his eyes showed surprise.

Obviously, he didn't expect him to come.

"Mr. Grindelwald? I don't think I gave you the password for today?"

Argus took out the list of goods from Honeydukes Candy Store from his pocket and shook it.

"Read them one by one, anyway, you can't go anywhere else."

Dumbledore didn't mind, smiled and shook his head: "It seems that I have to change to a more complicated password next time."

"What are you doing here this time?"

"Professor Dumbledore, I heard about what happened just now from Mr. Malfoy."

Argus got straight to the point and took out a few pieces of sizzling honey candies from his pocket and put them on the table.

Dumbledore

With a frown, he reached out and put a piece of honey candy into his mouth.

His expression slowly relaxed.

"Mr. Grindelwald, your current task is to study hard."

"Don't worry, even if I'm not the headmaster of Hogwarts, the deans can manage the campus well."

"But what if I can help you get the position of headmaster back?"

This sentence instantly caught Dumbledore's attention.

He just went to see a few old friends, but the answers he got were almost the same.

It takes time for this kind of thing to work!

No one can tell how long it will take!

Maybe a week, maybe a month, maybe half a year!

He can still accept a week, but if he really has to wait for half a year, it will be too late when he comes back!

Harry might be crooked!

Looking at Argus's calm eyes, Dumbledore's eyes gradually sharpened.

He had just been suspended, and he came to negotiate terms.

Could it be that...

Argus guessed what Dumbledore was thinking, and couldn't help but chuckled.

"Principal Dumbledore, don't you think I planned the whole thing?"

"The Ministry of Magic and the Board of Directors are not something that a little wizard like me who is still in school can mobilize."

That's right!

Dumbledore's expression gradually eased.

He knew the situation of the Board of Directors and the Ministry of Magic very well. If Argus really had the strength to mobilize these two departments, the Saint would have become the uncrowned king of the British wizarding world long ago.

Do we still need to rely on ourselves to resist those pure-blood families?

His old eyes looked directly at Argus.

He slowly said, "What do you need me to do?"

"It's very simple, the exclusive supply chain and proof of Hogwarts."

"Proof?"

"Proof that the products and raw materials of the Saint's store come from the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts."

What Argus really wants is a seat in the Wizengamot and the International Confederation of Wizards.

But these two chips are too heavy, and Dumbledore will never agree.

It will also arouse his vigilance!

It's better to get the products of the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts openly.

So that he wouldn't have to worry about Dumbledore forbidding Hagrid from selling.

Seeing Dumbledore hesitate, Argus decided to add fuel to the fire.
