Falsifying history is good business

People do not share the same joys and sorrows. Dumbledore was worried about Voldemort and the prophecy, but Lin You just felt that people in the wizarding world were too noisy.

The strong and the weak, the rich and the poor, the officials and the common people, the superiors and the subordinates, most of the time, there is no empathy. The strongest wizard in Hogwarts can only be on par with Voldemort, and in the Forrester family, even the youngest girl can swat Voldemort to death like a fly when she gets angry.

At most, she would complain that her hands were dirty after taking the photos, and would cry and complain to her brother about her grievances.

"Relax, professor; if we each do our own work well, Voldemort will not be able to cause any trouble. The worst case scenario is that he will return to his miserable appearance of the past decade or so, even more miserable than a ghost." Lin You waved his hand nonchalantly, intending to help these wizards, young and old, relieve their pressure. "I heard from Remus that the garbage in the Room of Requirement is higher than a mountain, and it is not easy to clean it out completely; so, don't worry, relax. I'm planning to take my sister to the South Atlantic for vacation, do you want to come with us?"

Harry and the other three all looked longing. Not to mention Harry, who had lived in a cupboard since childhood, Hermione's family was middle-class, but they were born into a Muggle family and had never experienced traveling in the wizarding world; as for Ron, it was not easy for his family to live frugally, and if they didn't win the jackpot, the Weasleys would not have the money to visit their son who was working away from home.

Dumbledore also noticed the changes in the expressions of the three little ones, and realized that his worries had inadvertently affected the three students; this should not have happened, but last year's encounter with Voldemort, who was possessed by the god of dark magic, had shocked the old wizard too much.

"Are we going to the Forresters' fiefdom on the Atlantic Ocean?" The principal smiled after regaining his composure. "That's a really nice vacation spot."

"Minerva, mainly. She loves the magical creatures on the island."

As she was talking, she saw a five-year-old girl staggering over; she was dragging a rattan box behind her that was larger than her body and filled with her personal belongings. Because the box was too heavy, Minerva could only put it on the ground, dragging it for a while and pushing it for a while, busy and sweating, but she never got tired of it.

Perhaps it was because of the little girl's smile that Dumbledore felt more relaxed. He said to Harry and the other two, "You really should go on vacation. You spent half of your summer vacation in the castle."

"You said it was for safety..." Harry answered stupidly.

"Yes, but when safety is guaranteed, it would be nice to take a vacation, right?" Dumbledore winked at the three students. He didn't know if Harry could understand, but he believed that Hermione would understand. "I'll ask the house-elves to pack your luggage and send it to you. The territory of Earl Goff is a holy place in the minds of many fans of magical creatures, but not many people have been there."

"Then I must thank Mr. Scamander for making me famous." Lin You saw Dumbledore's actions but pretended not to understand. The old man was deliberately trying to establish a closer relationship between the three little ones and the Forresters.

The three little ones reacted differently to Dumbledore's semi-forced "vacation" request; Harry Potter was yearning but also a little worried, especially like a poor student who was in an awkward mood, who wanted to put down his lack of effort but whose conscience was "condemned" by his lack of effort.

Hermione, the only female and the smartest of the three, seemed to be thinking about something, but she didn't quite understand it. The happiest one was Ron Weasley, who had the clearest goals among the three: one was to have fun, and the other was to curry favor with Minerva and make her happy.

It would be even better if the little girl was happy and gave a gem as a gift.

During the Triwizard Tournament, Ron was simply envious of Fleur Delacour's gem; later, when Remus Lupin also brought one back, he was so envious after seeing it up close that he was almost drooling.

Dumbledore and his friends spent a long time studying the gemstone, and almost gave up cleaning the Room of Requirement. The gemstone in Lupin's hand not only can dispel negative emotions like the one in Fleur's hand, but also can enhance the wearer's sensory ability and reaction ability.

Sirius also dragged Lupin to do experiments, and the result was that Sirius was beaten badly every time. Obviously, the magic strength of the two was similar, but after Lupin wore the gem, he cast spells faster and more accurately than before, and his judgment of the battle situation was more acute; even many times, Sirius would attack without warning, but Lupin would still dodge in time.

It can be concluded that the gems of the Forester family have their own characteristics and can bring various forms of benefits to wizards. They are likely the products of different magic experiments, and what Fleur and Lupin got are probably just the products of failed experiments; because they are defective products, they are allowed to be given away by a five-year-old girl.

Ron didn't care whether it was defective or not. He was used to using second-hand goods left by his brothers. He was much more eager than his two good friends to have good things, but his actual requirements were much lower. As long as the gems were on the same level as those in Mr. Lupin's hand, he would be satisfied.

Of course, the prerequisite is to make the little girl happy. For this reason, Ron racked his brains to find out from Professor Lupin under what circumstances the little girl from the Forrest family could give up the gem.

So, during the few days of traveling on Gough Island, Ron could always be seen hanging around Minerva, almost serving her attentively, but unfortunately the effect was not very good; the little girl was brought up by the old housekeeper, and that kind of doting and meticulous care was something that a clumsy and silly boy like Ron could not achieve.
As a result, Ron was the only one who didn't have a lot of fun during the entire holiday.

During the last two days of the holiday, they met Newt Scamander, who came to the island regularly to observe magical creatures. The two groups of people, young and old, had a brief exchange, and Hermione, the academic master, was overjoyed and took the initiative to make up for her own lessons with the same enthusiasm she had in school.

Rubeus Hagrid is a good friend and a dedicated gamekeeper, but as a professor of magical biology... it's hard to describe.

Also in the last two days of summer vacation, the last relic of the four founding masters of Hogwarts was found. The garbage in the Room of Requirement was piled up like a mountain. If the elves were not trained to be self-abuse 007 workers, they might not be able to go through everything before school started.

However, in Lin You's opinion, the main reason for the slow search was that the trio came to Gough Island for vacation, so they lacked the halo of the protagonist, which greatly reduced the work efficiency. Didn't you see that the protagonists in the original story could accurately find the crown and destroy it while quarreling and fighting with Malfoy's gang?

Voldemort was an extremely contradictory guy; he created the Horcruxes because he was afraid of death, but he handled the Horcruxes, which were the key to his life, very casually. If the crown had not been worn on the forehead of the statue, or if there had been more cover around the statue, he would not have died in the final battle.

If you want to save your life, you should be more cowardly; if you want to save face, you should be more high-profile; don't pretend to be a dog while jumping up and down and howling like a wolf, or you will get beaten, right?

The dull and worn crown regained its luster in Lin You's hands. Lin You put it on to try it out, but he didn't feel that it had the legendary effect of improving IQ or promoting learning. He didn't know if it was because his own power level was too high, which in turn suppressed the effectiveness of the magic item.

Not long after, the new school year began and Hogwarts returned to normal teaching. The Ministry of Magic was still intensively tracking down clues about Voldemort and the Death Eaters, and the Forrester family continued to watch the changes in the wizarding world with cold eyes.

But since when, some unverified news began to spread from those people's mouths. For example, the Ministry of Magic is negotiating with the Muggle government, trying to obtain the ownership of some collections from Muggle museums; it is said that these collections are relics left by an ancient wizard, and accidentally flowed into the Muggle antique market. As a result, due to the ridiculous and protracted legal procedures on the Muggle side, the matter of reclaiming the ownership has not made any progress.

For example, the Wizengamot sent a number of senior wizards to Greece, apparently preparing for cooperation with the Greek Ministry of Magic, but the specific content cannot be made public.

Two days later, an article was published in the Daily Prophet, which first introduced and confirmed the two rumors, and then directed a lot of sarcasm at the Ministry of Magic and the Wizengamot.

"…When the shadow of the Dark Lord loomed over the world and the good and decent wizards were worried, the Ministry of Magic did not seem to be in a hurry to solve the imminent crisis. Instead, it turned its attention to the Muggle world and paid attention to those outdated historical relics.

When will those officials open their sleepy eyes, pay more attention to the present, pay more attention to reality, and pay more attention to the magic world..."

The article is signed by Rita Skeeter.

When seeing this issue of "The Daily Prophet", Lin You seemed to have returned to the most rampant era of "public intellectuals" in his previous life, and he smelled a familiar stench.

"It seems that after Minister Fudge's fall, the relationship between the Ministry of Magic and the Daily Prophet has gradually deteriorated? It was not easy to see such an offensive article before." Earl Goff muttered to himself while eating breakfast.

Although the old butler and Minerva were still in the restaurant, they were obviously not qualified listeners at this time; the little girl was struggling with breakfast, and the old butler was wholeheartedly helping her.

"It would be great if Diana could quit her job in France and move to the manor." Lin You sighed secretly.

As a result, this sentence successfully elicited a response from the old housekeeper: "Actually, I think so too. It would be great if Miss Prince could move in. In fact, we can find her a job in the British Museum similar to the one in the Louvre, and the salary will be even higher."

"Don't make decisions for Diana, or I'll be in big trouble." Lin You joked half-seriously; the thing he regretted most now was introducing Irene Adler to Diana, an innocent princess who was led astray by a female thief.

With a "good teacher" like Eileen, and nearly a hundred years of life experience, there are probably few women in the world who dare to talk about "independence" and "self-reliance" in front of Diana.

The old butler could not hide his disappointment, and then he remembered something: "By the way, Mundungus came to the manor yesterday to ask for a meeting, but I sent him away."

"What is he doing here?" Lin You asked puzzledly.

That thief and street swindler had come to Forrester Manor several times in the past to seek benefits by relying on his connections with the Order of the Phoenix, but later he found that the new head of the Forrester family was young but not easy to deceive, so he came less and less frequently. In the past two years, Dumbledore has come to the manor more frequently, and Mundungus has simply disappeared completely.

Now that you suddenly show up again, what are you going to do?
The old butler replied, "His words were meant to inquire about the recent negotiations between the Ministry of Magic and the Muggle government to reclaim wizard artifacts. He has dealt with us before and knows that communication with the Muggle government cannot be done without Forrest."

"It seems that we did a good job in spreading the news. Even a rat in the gutter like Mundungus could smell the scent and come here. Others should have heard the news more or less." Lin You nodded with satisfaction. "What did you tell him?"

"According to the script you set, Master, I let some information out, and warned Mundungus sternly not to interfere in this matter, as it would bring him disaster."

Lin You fully trusted the old housekeeper's prudence and reliability. "That's good. People like Mundungus will sell information when they have no stolen goods to sell. I hope that after a while, the news that these cultural relics are valuable and of great significance will spread. In that case, it will save us a lot of effort and we don't have to find someone to do this."

"So what do we do next?"

"You don't have to do anything. What's coming next is basically Dumbledore's part. He is the one who knows Voldemort best. Whether he can catch the fish depends on his fishing skills." Lin You changed the subject and began to care about his own business. "Voldemort also grew up in an orphanage. It is said that he was very popular with his teachers when he was a student. Most of the partners we choose for Minerva are also from orphanages. Don't pick someone like Voldemort, who will cause a lot of trouble in the future."

"Don't worry, young master. I will personally keep an eye on it and select a group of truly excellent and reliable partners for Miss Minerva." The old butler was extremely concerned about this matter and patted his chest to assure Lin You.

When the little girl heard her name, she raised her face from the plate and showed a sweet smile that could melt people's hearts.

Some casual arrangements at the breakfast table soon caused a stir in the wizarding world.

First, some rumors circulated, then gradually turned into public discussion, and finally it was the official report of the Daily Prophet that finalized the matter.

The Ministry of Magic is negotiating to recover the artifacts that came from the famous dark wizard "Herpo the Despicable" in history.

It is said that the upcoming cooperation between the Wizengamot and the Greek Ministry of Magic is also related to this batch of cultural relics; because the relevant cultural relics were first unearthed in Greece and later sent to London, England.

The report in the Daily Prophet not only failed to calm the discussion, but instead stirred up a bigger wave of controversy. (End of this chapter)
