Hogwarts God of Ice and Fire

If the Minister of Magic is the "hand" of the Ministry of Magic, then the Director of the Auror Office is the "knife in the hand" of the Ministry of Magic. Only when the wills of the "hand" and the "knife" are highly consistent, can the "hand" be able to exert the "knife" "With all his strength, he defeated the enemy.

Old Barty has no plans to replace Scrimgeour, the director of the Auror Office, after taking office as Minister of Magic, so it is urgent to win Scrimgeour's support.

As for whether Scrimgeour will not follow the routine and directly expose what he has done...

Old Barty was not worried. Not to mention that Scrimgeour was not such a person. Just because he controlled a large part of the Daily Prophet now, he could say that he had no worries in the field of public opinion.

As long as he didn't commit any serious crime of killing an innocent wizard with the Unforgivable Curse, just accidentally killing a Death Eater whose identity was stoned was not enough to shake Old Barty's reshaping by public opinion in the British wizarding community. rise in popularity.

You know, under the propaganda of the Daily Prophet, there are many people in the British wizarding community who are chanting for Fudge to step down and elect Old Barty as Minister of Magic!
The Daily Prophet is campaigning for Old Barty, and wizards in the British wizarding world have long forgotten the fact that he once had a Death Eater son.

Even if someone remembers this incident and talks about it, more people will only respond to him: "Barty Jr. is dead! Barty Old is able to righteously kill off relatives and resolutely draw a clear line with Death Eaters. This is also true." It’s commendable, isn’t it?”

Regarding the change in public opinion, Fudge was naturally the most anxious person in the Ministry of Magic. He watched helplessly as his political opponents changed their image step by step, getting higher and higher, and he was already full of anxiety.

What Fudge could use to attack Old Barty was nothing more than the fact that Old Barty had a Death Eater son. But as people became less and less concerned about this matter, Old Barty's rise seemed to become unstoppable.

On the contrary, Fudge himself, after Old Barty mobilized the resources of the Daily Prophet to launch several counterattacks, was completely thrown into the abyss and could not stand up.

Compared with Old Barty, Fudge has a lot more dirty information. The negative information about Fudge that Old Barty casually pulled out from the Rolle family's intelligence network was enough to make Fudge's reputation fall to the bottom. !

……

At the same time, in Hogwarts Castle.

Unlike the tense and tense atmosphere in the Ministry of Magic, the atmosphere at Hogwarts Castle, which has just ended shortly after the Christmas holiday, is generally quite lively.

However, under Umbridge's high-pressure policy, this activity did not last long.

The situation in the Ministry of Magic became increasingly out of control, which forced Fudge to place his last hope on Umbridge.

As long as Umbridge can disrupt Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, distract Dumbledore's attention, and delay the progress of his impeachment, then he will still have a chance to reverse defeat and retain his position as Minister of Magic...

Under the blows that followed, Fudge was stunned.

He was like an ostrich with his head buried in the ground, regardless of the embattled situation in the Ministry of Magic, the countless calls from the British wizarding community to have him step down, and the consequences that his stupid decisions would bring to Hogwarts. destroy.

He naively believed that as long as he could delay the progress of impeachment, he would have a chance to turn defeat into victory.

But in fact, Fudge has already lost all chances of winning. The reason why he can still stay in the position of Minister of Magic without being driven out is just because someone needs him to sit there temporarily and attract hatred...

He has already become a substitute that can be discarded at any time!

Shortly after the incident involving Michael's exposure, Barty Sr. once again used this incident to make a fuss. News of the emergence of Death Eaters among Fudge's henchmen also spread throughout the British wizarding world. Even the young wizards at Hogwarts Castle have heard about this matter to a greater or lesser extent. They even asked their professors about it and learned a more comprehensive truth from their mouths.

In order to preserve Fudge's already pitiful reputation in Hogwarts Castle, Umbridge did not hesitate to bring "Education Order No. 26" to Hogwarts Castle.

"Hogwarts High Inquisitor Order

Teachers are hereby prohibited from providing any information to students that is not related to the subject they are teaching.

The above regulations are in compliance with the "Education Order No. 26".

signature:

senior investigative officer

Dolores Jane Umbridge"

In fact, this latest decree not only failed to prevent the spread of the news that Fudge's gang had become Death Eaters, but it actually made some young wizards who were not interested in these things curiously learn about what happened from their companions.

Just like Hermione said in the original book, if there is one thing that Umbridge can do to absolutely guarantee that everyone in the school will read this article, it is to have Umbridge ban it!

Although before Michael's exposure, Fudge's reputation was already bad in the hearts of the young wizards at Hogwarts Castle.

But the Michael incident undoubtedly ignited the young wizard's dissatisfaction with Fudge and even Umbridge, who was still teaching in the castle. When they confided in their parents, they could not avoid venting their dissatisfaction in letters.

This caused dissatisfaction and resistance among the parents of the students who read the letter.

They demanded even more strongly that Fudge step down and drive Umbridge, an out-and-out politician, out of Hogwarts Castle.

It can be said that if someone told the parents of these students that the pink toad that caused trouble in Hogwarts Castle and even hurt students died in an accident in the grounds of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Then instead of worrying about the safety of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry or the safety of their children at Hogwarts, parents of students will actually applaud!
After all, with Umbridge's behavior, let alone a dark wizard sneaking into the castle to assassinate her, even if a senior little wizard who was driven crazy turned against Tiangang and killed Umbridge with a spell, it would not be a big deal. Surprisingly.

In the British wizarding world, parents of students are a relatively large group, and igniting their anger will undoubtedly make the flames burn more vigorously and spread to the entire British wizarding community at a faster speed.

But the fire burns too fast, and not everything is a good thing.

According to Lynn and Irina's plan, they planned to dispose of Umbridge, the pink toad that had lost its use value, at the end of the school year, drive Fudge out of office, and support Old Barty as the new Minister of Magic.

But this also meant that they had to keep Fudge in that damn position to attract hatred until the end of the school year. (End of chapter)
