Chapter 135 Boys should care about current affairs

"Mom, we played a roller coaster today, as well as a pirate ship, bumper cars, and..."

During dinner, Isabel kept blaring her little mouth, bragging about her day at the amusement park.

Andy sat quietly on the chair, complaining in her heart while eating: This little thing is enough for her to brag about for a year.

What an ignorant little girl.

After Isabel had boasted enough, Kyle finally got down to business, "Helen, after a while, the Ministry of Magic will search for prohibited dark magic items. Please deal with those at home."

"I know." Helen responded calmly, obviously not taking the Ministry of Magic's search seriously.

"Do we still have black magic items in our house?" Andy asked in surprise.

Why have I never seen it?

Helen rolled her eyes at Andy and explained: "It's not a black magic item, just some life-saving door keys and some trigger gadgets."

Andy: Doesn't that count?

Cross-border door keys are inherently prohibited items, and as for those trigger gadgets... they are obviously not very safe either.

Andy asked: "Dad, when will the Ministry of Magic start searching?"

Kyle thought for a while, "Maybe a month later."

Andy: "..."

A month later, you know the news now?

So awesome?

Helen said disdainfully: "This is already fast. If you delay a little longer, the Ministry of Magic may not even take action by the time you start school."

Andy: Got it!

Kyle explained: "The people responsible for the operation this time are the Department for the Prohibition of Misuse of Muggle Articles and the Auror Office. Arthur mentioned it to me when we got off work today."

"Why would the Ministry of Magic do this?" Andy asked doubtfully.

This kind of thing is completely thankless.

Many magical families have dark magic items, which are like traps. Placing a few at home when you are away from home can effectively prevent your home from being stolen.

During combat, some black magic items can also work wonders.

And judging from the actions of the Ministry of Magic, it is obvious that they do not intend to pursue it seriously, otherwise it would not be possible for the news to come out so early.

"I heard from Aunt You that this seems to be the result of a discussion between Dumbledore and Fudge."

Kyle said: "But I guess Fudge might also want to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune."

At the end of the sentence, Kyle showed a look of envy.

This operation has nothing to do with their International Magic Cooperation Department, and Kyle will not be able to make this money.

Andy nodded understandingly.

Those rich pure-blood families have been trying to win over Fudge. As long as Fudge reveals that "this is what Dumbledore means," those pure-blood families will send a lot of gold Galleons to Fudge's office.

It's great to be a minister.

Andy also looked envious.

But...why did Dumbledore do this?

In terms of Dumbledore's rank, he disdained wealth and power.

Moreover, his approach will also prompt him and Fudge to part ways earlier - after all, no one wants to have an emperor on their head.

Dumbledore may have his own agenda, but in Fudge's view, his approach was tantamount to violating his minister's power.

This will only widen the gap between the two.

Is it for Voldemort?

Andy frowned slightly.

If there is one thing that the old headmaster must do, it must be to get rid of Voldemort.

Other than that, Andy couldn't think of anything else in the wizarding world that would make the old headmaster so troubled.

Andy sighed and thought to himself: "I don't know what troubles are waiting for me next semester."

"Why are you sighing?"

Helen said angrily: "What does this have to do with you? Hurry up and eat."

Why doesn't it matter?

Andy always feels that the troubles in the next semester may be related to Dumbledore's action.

"Isn't the relationship between Fudge and Dumbledore getting worse?" Andy asked.

Just when Helen was about to speak, Kyle said in advance: "It's normal for boys to care about current affairs. Andy is so sensitive to current affairs, he might even become the Minister of Magic in the future."

After saying that, Kyle said to Andy: "Absolutely! The two of them are not the same person. Fudge cares about his power and status."

"Dumbledore pushed Fudge to the position of minister, and I don't know if he will regret it in the future." Helen complained.

When the previous minister retired, the clamor for Dumbledore to become minister was the highest.

However, Dumbledore declined the position of Minister and instead recommended Cornelius Fudge.

"You don't need a team, right?" Andy asked.

Although Kyle is not a small soldier in the Ministry of Magic, he is not a big boss either. The power struggle between Fudge and Dumbledore should have nothing to do with him, right?

Kyle asked, "If you were me, Andy, which side would you be on?"

"On Fudge's side, of course."

Andy said without thinking: "He is now the minister, and his words are more effective than Dumbledore. Besides, if you stand on Dumbledore's side, there is no benefit even if you win."

Think about it, how many of those who followed Dumbledore to fight against Voldemort are in high positions now?

Dumbledore recruits people entirely based on faith and has no actual benefits at all.

"I think so too."

Kyle said: "During the last Wizarding War, the Weasleys were on Dumbledore's side. Look at it now, has Dumbledore helped them?"

With Dumbledore's prestige back then, he only needed to mention it a little, and Mr. Weasley would have been promoted.

As a result, the family's life was so tight that the children could not even afford new clothes.

"If you can see this, I don't have to worry about you being deceived by Dumbledore." Kyle said reassuringly.

Helen was silent and didn't speak.

She was also one of the people who was deceived by Dumbledore when she was not with Kyle.

At that time, Helen wished she could fight with Death Eaters as soon as she graduated.

"The old principal is actually a pretty good person." Andy said something fair.

"I didn't say anything bad about him." Kyle nodded.

"But this kind of person is just fine to watch from a distance, not suitable for working together." Andy said.

After eating, Isabel took the camera and urged Kyle to help her develop the photos.

She also wants to show off to her little sisters.

Andy sat in the yard, eating while looking up at the stars.

At the same time, we are also analyzing Dumbledore's purpose in doing this.

Search for dark magic items...

Is it for the Death Eaters who escaped justice?

Andy quickly thought that maybe those Death Eaters who had escaped justice had things left by Voldemort in their homes.

And this dark magic item is likely to be involved in the secret of Voldemort's immortality.

Otherwise it would be difficult to explain why Dumbledore had to do this.
