Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

Scrimgeour was right to be worried, because early the next morning there were two stories in newspapers all over the wizarding world.

First, Voldemort was killed by Mike Townley.

And it was Mike Townley, the man behind the recent rebellion, who was arrested.

These two things are actually the same thing. This is what the new generation of media headed by "The Quibbler" did. They told readers the truth of the matter, and they also contained private goods, such as "The Quibbler" implies that the Ministry of Magic did not arrest Voldemort after he had killed him and was seriously wounded, an act that needs to be condemned.

But like The Quibble, the Daily Prophet has its own inclinations.

So in their old-school newspapers, Voldemort's death and Mike's arrest became two things, and they tried to use this method to downplay people's gratitude to Mike Townley for killing Voldemort.

It's just useless. After all, Voldemort has caused much more pain to the world than he has caused the upsurge of equal rights, so the trend in society has suddenly changed, and countless people have begun to sing praises. Mike's merit, and called it a new generation of savior.

On the surface this is a good thing, but in reality it is not.

First of all, the news of Voldemort's death is really shocking, and its appearance has taken away a lot of the heat that should have belonged to the affirmative action movement.

Coupled with the arrest of Mike, the originally strong affirmative force suddenly lost the most powerful main force behind it, and instantly became weaker.

The merchants in Diagon Alley should be deeply touched by it, because the incident has just happened. In the past, the affirmative groups who stayed in Diagon Alley every day and held ky slogans have disappeared, replaced by wave after wave. The crowd who came to celebrate the death of Voldemort.

This makes these merchants happy. It must be known that when people are in a good mood, the concept of money will gradually become blurred, which has made their business much better recently.

And just as happy as the merchants were the officials of the Ministry of Magic.

Right now, the social situation is starting to improve rapidly. According to this momentum, they will soon be able to return to their previous state.

But just as the Ministry of Magic was rejoicing, the office of the Minister of Magic was filled with smoke, and Scrimgeour was smoking a cigar in his hand.

"call!"

He exhaled a long puff of smoke,

Scrimgeour stubbornly snuffed out the cigar in his hand.

The assistant's face lit up with joy, but it didn't take long for Scrimgeour to light a brand new cigar.

This made the assistant bow his head silently. There was no way. Mr. Minister was angry at the moment, and he really dared not speak.

And what made Scrimgeour so irritable was a copy of The Quibbler on his desk.

It clearly stated that although McTorley did some wrong things, he did not cause too much loss to the society. In addition, he made great contributions and killed Voldemort, so if the merits and demerits were equal, the Ministry of Magic should Its acquittal.

Although this is just the words of "The Quibbler", according to data survey Scrimgeour knows that this kind of statement is very popular among ordinary people, and almost half of the people in the market now support the Ministry of Magic's lenient sentence or the release of McTorley.

"Whoa!!~"

Another puff of smoke was exhaled, and Scrimgeour frantically crumpled the Quibbler in front of him and threw it into the trash can beside him.

Strictly speaking, this is actually just a small matter. After all, the situation has stabilized now. Although McTorley is indeed at fault, he does not have to kill McTorley.

After all, the Ministry of Magic has let many criminals out in the past, and one more of him is not too much.

As long as he is willing to cut the flesh, hand over a large amount of property, and promise to honestly not make some more moths after going out.

But the crux of the matter is that he had promised Chris earlier that he would help the Ministry of Magic restore social stability at the expense of the Minister of Magic.

But now that the situation has changed abruptly, doesn't this mean that after coming here, Chris can pick up a minister's position without doing anything?

You must know that his current position as a minister took a lot of resources to get it at the special timing of Voldemort's invasion and Fudge's mistakes.

Otherwise, it would be a pipe dream just because he was a half-blood wizard from the military who wanted to hold the post of Minister of Magic!

Is such a hard-earned position just given away?

Thinking of this, Scrimgeour couldn't help but feel a strong sense of unwillingness in his heart.

Then put Chris pigeons like that?

This also does not work!

Judging from the force shown by Chris in Mary Joa, he has now been promoted to Legend in nine out of ten.

The price he has to pay to deceive a legendary wizard is absolutely unbearable, not to mention that there are more than a dozen pure-blood families standing behind Chris. The combination of these families is definitely a huge and frightening force!

For a moment, Scrimgeour was caught in a deep tangle.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the Freemasonry Uncharted conference room was not very good.

Penello, Arthur, Franklin and other Freemason members sat with their heads bowed, but no one spoke. From time to time, a few suppressed crying could be heard from the corner-that was Shuke and beta.

Since Mike was arrested, everyone has basically been in this state.

Especially Franklin, his eyes were swollen from crying, plus Arthur knocked a big bag on his head, and now it's so miserable to be wrapped in gauze.

Everyone understands this. After all, Franklin has been with Mike for the longest time.

They had no doubt that if Arthur hadn't forcibly taken this guy away, Franklin would have chosen to live and die with Mike.

Even for this matter, Franklin had a fight with Arthur after waking up. Although he didn't fight, it was also an expression of friendship, and others didn't say much.

"Okay, Franklin, don't be too sad, Mike will be fine."

Penello couldn't stand it anymore and comforted Franklin in a low voice, but his tone was a little unhappy.

After all, she is Mike's real girlfriend, and now Franklin is even more sad than her, what's the matter?

If she was seen by someone who didn't know, she would think she didn't care about Mike at all.

"Why do you guarantee that Mike will come back, that's the Ministry of Magic! Maybe the group of Aurors are torturing Mike right now! No way! I'm going to save Mike!"

Franklin's emotions suddenly became agitated, and he got up and left after saying a few words.

But just as his ass left the seat, Arthur stood up beside him, and at the same time raised the long sword in his hand towards Franklin.

Upon seeing this, Franklin resolutely confessed and sat back in his seat.

No way, Arthur is too strong, he really can't beat him.

"Don't worry, aren't we manipulating public opinion to put pressure on the Ministry of Magic through "The Quibbler"? With the urgency of the people in the Ministry of Magic, it is estimated that it is just a matter of paying a large fine."

Arthur pouted and said.

Speaking of which, he really didn't understand what Dumbledore was doing. When he parted with Mike, he thought Dumbledore would kill Mike directly, but now Dumbledore has handed Mike over to the Ministry of Magic, Isn't this just letting the tiger go back to the mountain?

Those at the Ministry of Magic won't judge Mike well at all.

Or...is that what Dumbledore meant?

Arthur couldn't understand.

"Are you serious?" Franklin gritted his teeth. "What if the Ministry of Magic doesn't want to let go?"

"Then let's go in and save Mike!"

Arthur said fiercely, and pulled out some of the long sword in his hand while speaking, and suddenly a sharp killing intent swept the entire conference room, and everyone present felt a chill in their necks, especially Soraka and other women I couldn't help but shivered.

"Anyway, Mike must be rescued at all costs!"

"That's right! At all costs!"

"That's it!"

...

The echoes echoed in the conference room one after another. Benjamin and others all expressed their attitudes. Their eyes were extremely firm, and it could be seen that this was their heartfelt cry.

But in fact, they can't do it without saving.

You must know that Freemasonry links all of them. They are a whole. The oath they make when they join the union always binds their behavior. Whenever they do something that abandons their companions, the chains of the oath will kill them. , just like the unlucky guy in the United States.

And seeing his companions so determined, Franklin's expression finally looked much better.

It seemed to him that breaking into the Ministry of Magic to save someone or something was no big deal as long as they all worked together.

But the next moment his expression distorted again, and he got up and smashed the conference table, roaring:

"And Dumbledore! He has to pay the price too, this old immortal is crazy! He's going to shoot at us!"

As soon as these words came out, the originally excited crowd instantly fell silent, and the entire conference room was filled with an awkward atmosphere.

Everyone present except Arthur is all Dumbledore's students. Each of them has special feelings for this old headmaster, so at the beginning, when they saw Dumbledore actually shot at them, many of them were a little bit Can't believe it.

It is precisely because of this that they were all silent in the face of Franklin's proposal. The image of Dumbledore in their minds was too stalwart, and they really didn't want to be an enemy of Dumbledore.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Franklin became furious again. He pointed at everyone's nose and started cursing.

"Okay, Franklin." Benjamin advised. "The most important thing now is to rescue Mike. As for Dumbledore...even if we want to get revenge on him, we can't beat him."

Franklin's face was blushing, trembling and he wanted to continue scolding.

But before he could speak, he heard Arthur say:

"This is not necessarily. I was the closest to Mike and Dumbledore when it happened. According to the situation on the scene, Dumbledore should have been seriously injured. If nothing else, the last time was his last. Power, now Dumbledore, huh, should be just a paper tiger."

"But what Benjamin said also makes sense. Our focus should be on rescuing Mike. As for some other things, we can put it aside first."

Hearing this, Benjamin's originally frowning brows finally loosened. He nodded towards Arthur, then looked at Franklin and said:

"Franklin, I know you're angry, please believe me, everyone here is just as angry as you are. Don't worry, although we can't concentrate on revenge yet, it's hard on our side, and Dumbledore's side doesn't either. I want to be better!"

"Oh? What are you going to do?"

Franklin, who was a little lost after hearing this, suddenly regained his spirits.

"It's very simple. Now Mike's influence at Hogwarts is actually not much worse than Dumbledore's. Coupled with the previous wave of equal rights, Mike has also attracted a lot of fans at Hogwarts." Benjamin sly With a smile, "then if those students knew that their hero, Mike, who was running for the public good was caught by their dear headmaster Dumbledore, guess what they would do?"

"Hi!~"

Franklin sucked in a breath of cold air and looked at Benjamin with a shocked expression, and the rest of the people present basically had the same reaction.

They really didn't expect that Benjamin could think of such a poisonous plan.

If things are as Benjamin said, then Dumbledore and even the other professors at Hogwarts will not have to worry about it, because the chaos that broke out at Hogwarts not long ago will return and change. more violently.

Those angry students are sure to turn Hogwarts upside down!

"Good idea! I'll let someone do it!"

Penello got up and walked quickly towards the door. As the actual manager of the daily affairs of the Los Santos Group, only she has the ability to make Benjamin's vision a reality.

As the door was slammed shut, the corners of the mouths of everyone else in the conference room rose.

They can't wait to see the show!

...

On the other side, while Benjamin and the others were still making plans, a brown-haired boy in a pure black trench coat was slowly walking out of the Leaky Cauldron Bar and came to Diagon Alley.

The boy seemed to be a foreign tourist who came to Diagon Alley for the first time, and was full of interest in everything that appeared in front of him.

He would stop and watch when he passed the store where he bought the cauldron, he would also stop to taste it when he met the clerk selling him new ice cream, and then give his opinion, and even when passing by the Quidditch shop, he would be like those children. Surrounded by the window, curiously looking at the Firebolt inside.

Diagon Alley at the moment was indeed worth his serious visit, with countless wizards in fancy costumes singing and dancing on the cobblestones, celebrating their escape from the fear called Voldemort, and the mischievous children still lit up from time to time. A magic firework, that strangely shaped flame will stay in the sky for a long time.

Looking at the celebrating crowd, an inexplicable smile appeared on the young man's face, and said in a voice that only he could hear clearly:

"It's too early to celebrate now, isn't it?"
