Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way - Chapter 426

c410 Ministry of Magic, look what you’ve protected

What happened on Christmas Eve 1995 is destined to leave a mark in the history of magic in Great Britain.

The Daily Prophet’s late arrival is nothing new. Normally, no matter how bad the weather is, the owls will deliver newspapers to customers on time.

Occasionally there will be a slight delay due to the need to change the news, but at most it will be less than five minutes late.

Today, the “Daily Prophet” was three hours late. This was the first time since the publication of this newspaper!

This makes almost all wizards curious about it. What is the reason why the “Daily Prophet” is so late?

And when they get the newspaper, they almost always can’t wait to open it and find out.

The wizards didn’t have to wait long. They quickly found the answer on the first page of the newspaper and were all shocked.

Last night was Christmas Eve. Everyone was enjoying delicious food at home, admiring the snow falling in the sky outside the window, and lamenting the peaceful singing and dancing in the magical world.

But unexpectedly, on that calm night, the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic was actually invaded by a mysterious man and his Death Eaters and dark creatures!

What’s even more frightening is that Minister Fudge was kidnapped, and Senior Deputy Minister Umbridge also mysteriously disappeared!

You can’t even protect your own Minister and Deputy Minister. Ministry of Magic, look what you have protected?

But the news didn’t end here. Another heavyweight news was published on the second page – before these intruders were caught, a mysterious man robbed the prison in Azkaban.

According to the author Rita, she has obtained reliable first-hand information proving that the mysterious man personally participated in the prison robbery, which even directly caused the entire Azkaban Island to be completely destroyed and turned into a deep ocean pit.

After reading the two pieces of news, all the wizards thought of the same sentence again: Ministry of Magic, what can you protect?

As soon as these two blockbuster news came out, they directly shocked the entire magical world of Great Britain and quickly spread to other countries.

After all, although the sun never sets on the Empire, which has lost its former majesty, it is still supported by Dumbledore, who is apparently the number one in the world, and its ancestors are still very glorious.

Their Azkaban wizard prison and unique jailers like dementors are famous throughout the international wizarding community.

Although the Department of Mysteries is not well-known among the people, it is extremely important in the eyes of the Ministry of Magic of various countries.

Now both of them have been invaded, and Azkaban has been directly turned into a giant hole in the ocean. This is shocking no matter how you think about it.

The disappearance of the minister and senior deputy minister has also made the British Ministry of Magic a laughing stock.

In addition, there is another important name that catches everyone’s eyes, that is the mysterious man. After the shock, what followed was deep fear.

Who is the mysterious man? He is the famous dark wizard, or the Dark Lord.

Just because he is a madman, you cannot deny his proficiency in the Death Curse and the speed of killing people.

Although he had not been to the European continent a few times in his heyday and seemed to have a very low style, that was only because he was stopped by Dumbledore and encountered the final boss in the novice village at the beginning.

The news in the newspapers publicly declared that such a terrifying existence that once started the Wizarding War has now come back to life, and also gave tangible evidence.

Suddenly, the entire magical world was panicked. After reading the newspaper, many wizards began to quickly inventory their family properties and collect gold and silver.

As soon as there is any disturbance, they are ready to move their family abroad.

This is also normal. Although Voldemort did not have time to do evil after reshaping his body this time, he only invaded the Ministry of Magic once and robbed Azkaban Prison once, but he has not caused any direct harm to the residents of the magical world.

But this noseless wizard once left eternal scars in the hearts of almost everyone in the wizarding world.

Who doesn’t have a few relatives who died at the hands of Voldemort or his minions?

The fear that Voldemort brought to the wizarding world will probably fade away only as these generations grow older.

The senior officials of the Ministry of Magic were extremely uncomfortable when they saw Rita writing this news, as if they had eaten a fly.

They were already having a huge headache. After all, so many wizards disappeared quietly in the Department of Mysteries, which showed that there must be loopholes hidden in the Ministry of Magic.

The option of their own active suicide had long been eliminated from the minds of senior officials at the Ministry of Magic. Who wants to die while people are alive? If it were him, he would definitely not choose to die. When you use yourself to save others, it is very obvious what the group of invaders will choose.

As for the wands scattered around the stone arch of the Death Hall, they were also considered to be a poor camouflage trick, just to mislead the sight. Those wizards must still have spare wands on them.

In addition to the headache caused by the invasion of the Ministry of Magic, the disappearance of Fudge and Umbridge also caused a headache for this group of officials.

You know, it’s not some cat or dog that’s missing, but the Minister of Magic and the Senior Deputy Minister of Magic!

Although Fudge no longer has any rights, he will resign “honorably” at any time; Umbridge is no longer welcome and is a loyal supporter of Fudge, and it is very likely that she will be forced to leave her job at the same time. “Decent”.

But after all, these two people are the two people with the most power and the highest status in the Ministry of Magic. Now that they are missing, they not only slap the Ministry of Magic hard in the face, but also bring troubles to all employees and officials of the Ministry of Magic from top to bottom. A deep sense of insecurity.

The Minister and Deputy Minister of Magic can disappear quietly, but what about us?

There was also Azkaban. When the Aurors sent by the Ministry of Magic arrived at Azkaban, the minds of these professionals stopped functioning for a long time.

The Aurors were sure that they were in the right place. This was Azkaban, a place they could reach with their eyes closed.

But they were also sure that there was no familiar island or prison under their brooms, only a huge hole. Countless seawater is pouring into it, and we don’t know when the sinkhole will be filled.

So…what about the big island of Azkaban? No matter how powerful you mysterious person is, no matter how hard you rob a prison, there is no need to deliberately make Azkaban Island disappear!

There was a backlog of worries, but Rita ended up writing them all down again. If you do this, how can we make the people in the magical world believe that they are being protected?

Therefore, the magic world, which has always been slow to move, actually successfully summoned senior officials at ten o’clock in the morning and held the first meeting of the day to discuss countermeasures.

But at noon that day, the Ministry of Magic suddenly found that it seemed that there was nothing left to do.

Because the “Daily Prophet” ingeniously printed a midday newspaper issue, it was also nicknamed the “Christmas Special”.

This issue of the new newspaper published a series of themed articles – “The Patron Saint of Christmas Eve – The Victorious Harry Potter and the Total Death of the Mysterious Man”, both written by Rita.

After getting a lot of first-hand information from Harley, Rita read through many thick books on ancient magic history overnight, and found many narrative records of ancient wizards, and used this to fabricate a “unparalleled war.”

This battle was so exciting that at every turn the sky fell, the ground cracked, wind, thunder and tsunamis appeared, and the avenue was wiped out.

Even Harley herself was amazed after reading the article. It turned out that she was the one who dealt with Senior Riddle like this!

Rita described it in such detail that if she hadn’t experienced it personally, she would have believed it.

In order to increase the credibility of the matter, Rita took a series of photos after obtaining the “corpses” of Voldemort and several of his famous Death Eaters.

Malfoy and several other Death Eaters also attended the filming. It was said that they “repented for their crimes” and “made up for their mistakes”. They woke up at the last moment and provided a lot of key information to Dumbledore and Harry.

And they themselves wanted to confirm the authenticity of all these events, after all, they were all Death Eaters.

Suddenly, the entire magic world was boiling. The Second Wizarding War ended just as it began!

Countless owls were flying around in the sky, rising and falling abnormally during the day and night. Even Muggles noticed this strange phenomenon.

Many wizards appeared and walked through the door, exchanging their inner joy.

Many wizards even cried with joy, violated the law of confidentiality, and rushed to the streets wearing wizard robes to celebrate.

Once bitten by a snake and afraid of well ropes for ten years, the residents of the wizarding world no longer want to recall the fear that Voldemort brought to them.

The Ministry of Magic also received news from Professor Dumbledore and learned that everything Rita said was true.

Everyone was confused and felt like they were kept in the dark. I don’t know anything yet, but everything is already over.

But what does it matter? Stupid people are blessed with stupid things. It’s great that they don’t have to worry about themselves.

Anyway, why are you having a meeting and worrying about it? Let’s celebrate together!

…………

After a brief period of celebration, everything was back on track.

Amelia lived up to expectations and successfully became the new Minister of Magic.

She was already popular and her support rate was extremely high. Her election not only satisfied ordinary wizards, but also made all members of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement breathe a sigh of relief.

The Minister of Magic should be the Director of our Department of Magical Law Enforcement. Why are you the Deputy Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters?

Amelia didn’t celebrate as much as Fudge after taking the stage. After all, she had too many things on her hands.

At present, the Ministry of Magic has determined that the mysterious wizards who invaded the Department of Mysteries should be Death Eaters in makeup.

After all, the timing of their invasion matched so perfectly with the timing of Voldemort’s prison robbery. Even a three-year-old wizard wouldn’t believe it if there was no relationship between the two parties.

Leaders of other countries have also confirmed that these invaders are not dark wizards in their own countries.

But establishing an identity is not enough. The Ministry of Magic also needs to conduct security checks on locations, including the Department of Mysteries, in an effort to prevent such an intrusion from happening again.

In addition, so many prisoners and Death Eaters died in Azkaban that needed to be dealt with.

It is said that debts are wiped out after death, but this rule in the Muggle world does not apply in the magical world.

He committed a heinous crime and wanted to escape it by dying? Then who will believe in the glory of justice!

So the liquidation began, and the Ministry of Magic began to investigate some pure-blood families one by one. If it was determined that there were Death Eaters in the family, it would be necessary to comprehensively consider all kinds of information and provide compensation to the magical community.

The way to confirm the target is also very simple, just look at which family has died. The Ministry of Magic has obtained a lot of information from Harry and determined this most effective method.

At the end of the Christmas vacation, Amelia went to chat with Harry in person and warmly invited her to stand up for the Ministry of Magic as an ambassador for the Ministry of Magic and help restore the reputation of the Ministry of Magic.

Harry naturally happily agreed to this kind of good thing that fell from the sky.

Her existing anchor points can at most support her until she becomes the King of Angels, which is definitely not enough; only by further deepening the impression of her existing fans on her and expanding new foreign believers can she be more effectively supported. One bit sequence zero.

After getting Harley’s happy agreement, Amelia talked with Harley in detail about what happened on Christmas Eve, and this method of identifying Death Eaters based on the dead was proposed by Harley.

She was sure that what kind of Death Eater could survive the multiple natural disasters she had dealt with? At least ordinary Sequence Four demigods definitely don’t have this qualification.

Amelia affirmed Harley’s approach, and decided on the spot to follow Harley’s suggestion and inflict another heavy blow on these grieving families.

This is adding fuel to the fire and adding insult to injury, which is probably a beautiful thing.

…………

The Christmas vacation is over in a blink of an eye, and Hogwarts is back to school as normal.

During this time, Harley’s walks around the school attracted more and more attention.

She just went to have a meal, and there would be a large circle of people around her, and many first- and second-year wizards would come over to ask for autographs.

But this is normal, after all, this is a new wizard who killed Voldemort with his own hands and is as good as Professor Dumbledore.

Although everyone has long known that Harley is extraordinary through a series of championships and papers, who would have thought that while she was still worrying about the homework due tomorrow, they would have already solved Voldemort!

What is the gap? This is called the gap!

Moreover, Rita continued to publish serials in newspapers. She found the traffic password again and prepared to expand the battle between Harley and Voldemort, writing at least fifteen episodes!

Of course, there are also people who don’t like Harry, such as some little Slytherin snakes who physically killed their parents.

But they don’t have the guts to go find trouble with Harry, as their family is still being censored by the Ministry of Magic!

Although most of the top members of the Ministry of Magic are purebloods, purebloods also have different positions.

Just like the Crouch family that has turned into the dust of history and the Burns family that is now at its peak, these two families are the purest pure bloods, and they are bloodlines that can be taken seriously immediately after joining the Death Eaters.

But these two families are also the most staunch families that oppose the mysterious man. Amelia Bones’s brother was once a member of the Order of the Phoenix and died in the war with the Death Eaters.

Now that these families are in power, do you want them to show mercy to those Death Eater families? It’s impossible to think about it!
