Chapter 256 Rita appears! Trelawney is interviewed
Before the next day, Trelawney's prophecy in class spread wildly throughout Hogwarts.
There was panic on campus.
Maybe they don't understand the rest, but even a fool can understand the last sentence about the blood of innocent people!
There's going to be bloodshed at Hogwarts!
Terrorist attacks are a possibility!
There are likely to be student casualties!
Where did this group of young wizards, who were only in their teens, come from such fear? They asked their dean one after another.
A few even wanted to go home and hide, waiting until the matter was over before they could come back and continue their classes.
Faced with this situation, Dumbledore was helpless.
I can only comfort and explain over and over again.
But his reputation has been overdrawn countless times.
How can it still have the same effect as before!
Although some people chose to retreat, most remained unwilling to give up.
I need an explanation from Dumbledore.
Some people have suggested that Aurors can continue to be stationed to ensure the safety of students.
Received support from a large number of students.
Even many parents of students learned about the prophecy and couldn't wait to ask Dumbledore for an explanation.
The troll from last year, the basilisk from last year, and the Heir of Slytherin.
This year we got another Sirius!
This kind of mess happens every year. How did you, Dumbledore, become the headmaster!
The greatest white wizard of this century, that's it?
If it hadn't been for an unconfirmed prophecy, Dumbledore would most likely have received another Howling Letter.
…
"Do you remember everything I told you?"
"Remember, Mr. Grindelwald, don't worry, you will be satisfied with my press kit!"
Rita Skeeter nodded hurriedly, smiling flatteringly.
She originally thought that taking refuge in the Saints and Yagus was a helpless move.
Unexpectedly, I could receive major news one after another that is difficult for ordinary people to access.
And first-hand!
Have the most top-secret news and the clearest photos!
After several news reports, she almost reached the position of editor-in-chief!
If it weren't for her ability to get big news every time, she would have been transferred to other positions long ago.
Sometimes she also thought that if she had known that the saints were being treated so well, there would be no need to be imprisoned for such a long time.
I had already taken the initiative to come here!
Why spend the whole day in the wind and rain doing news?
Just like their editor-in-chief and editor-in-chief, they sit comfortably in the office and drink tea every day!
How nice!
However, she believes that as long as she works harder and is appreciated by Mr. Grindelwald, it will only be a matter of time before she becomes the editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet!
"You can report this matter in a normal style, there is no need to be too deliberate."
"Understood!" Rita Skeeter looked like a loser.
There is no trace of the original defiance.
Yagus understood what he meant after just a little hint.
What is your normal style?
Discredit Dumbledore!
It just so happens that this thing has something to do with Hogwarts!
So why don't you open it up for writing?
"How are the sales of the Daily Prophet recently? Do you have any tasks?"
Yagus had never underestimated the seemingly simple department of the Daily Prophet.
In the magical world where news is scarce, it is the largest public opinion control center in the magical world.
Anything that spreads through it will have a huge increase in popularity.
You have to control this big speaker yourself.
At least, don't let it fall into Dumbledore's hands.
"There hasn't been any big news recently, mainly around Sirius."
"What you just told me should be the biggest news in recent times."
"It can be reported on the headlines for many days, and the newspaper will send people to follow up."
"you?"
"If you want me to come over, I'll apply to the newspaper and it should be okay."
Rita didn't know what Yagus meant.
But I have a feeling that Yagus is going to cause something big.
He had said similar words to himself last time, which made the entire British wizarding world restless.
Now again...
Could it be that he already knew Sirius's location?
Thinking about how hard it was for him to get the position of editor-in-chief, he also thought about Sirius's cruel character.
Rita couldn't help but persuade him: "Mr. Grindelwald, Sirius is not that easy to catch."
"He was able to blow up a dozen Muggles on a street in order to escape."
"If you push him too hard, there's no guarantee he won't do something."
"No matter what, he is from the Black family...other pure-blood families..."
She was just about to persuade Yagus not to break up with the pure-blood family, but suddenly she remembered that a few months ago, Yagus had just wiped out two pure-blood families.
Or the twenty-eight pure-blooded tribes!
It's been a few months, and I haven't seen a pure-blood family fart.
If it were someone else, they might have taken it into consideration.
Argos?
Anyone who dares to show his teeth will have them pulled out!
"You just have to do your part."
"I have my own arrangements for the rest."
…
"Professor Trelawney, how did you divine that prophecy?"
"Oh, this is complicated. Mr. Grindelwald passed me that day with a crystal ball. Through the crystal ball, I felt the guidance brought to me by my third eye. You know, a gifted person like me... "
"Got it!" Rita Skeeter wrote quickly.
"Under the oppression of Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor Sybill Trelawney could only hide her talent to avoid being persecuted."
"Inspired by Mr. Grindelwald, her divination ability has broken through again."
"She predicted the future of Sirius and the situation of Hogwarts."
The shorthand quill kept making a clicking sound on the table.
Rita Skeeter continued to ask: "I heard that the prophecy about our son of prophecy Harry Potter was also your masterpiece, right?"
"Yes, I was not a professor at Hogwarts at that time... I inherited it from my ancestor Cassandra Trelawney..."
Professor Trelawney had no experience in being interviewed, and was fooled by Rita's words.
She almost told the other party how many hairs she had on her head.
There was also a bit of boasting in her words.
She was despised and looked down upon in the past, and people said she was a liar.
Now she finally found a chance to turn things around, so she should seize it quickly!
Recast the Trelawney style, today!
"Next question, Professor Trelawney."
"Excuse me!"
"Would you mind telling me about Headmaster Dumbledore's attitude towards Divination and towards you?"
Rita Skeeter gradually guided Trelawney to talk about sensitive topics.
If it were any other professor, they might walk away in anger.
But Trelawney is different!
She has never been interviewed, has no experience, and is not very good at dealing with a veteran and well-known reporter like Rita.
Argus's prophecy suddenly flashed through her mind.
She shook her head violently, tears welling up in her eyes.
"He... he's going to fire me!"
