The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 1,048 The Secret Behind the Lies

After the news of the collective escape of ten Death Eaters from Azkaban spread through the "Daily Prophet", the entire British wizarding world completely exploded.

To the wizarding world, Death Eaters are almost as feared as Voldemort.

Back then, under Voldemort's reign of terror, Death Eaters committed countless unforgivable crimes. They were the most vicious dark wizards.

As soon as the Daily Prophet's report on the Azkaban escape incident came out, many people were dissatisfied because the newspaper concealed how the Death Eaters escaped from Azkaban, and everything on the front page was covered It's nonsense.

For this reason, many wizards sent "cordial" letters of greetings to the editor of the Daily Prophet in order to vent their inner anxieties. More people instinctively ignored the truth behind this prison break.

This incident was undoubtedly a major shock to the Hogwarts students who listened to Wizard's Watch on Christmas Eve. The Wizard Watchtower did not lie or deceive from the beginning, but told them the truth calmly, but the truth was too cruel.

Many wizards were eager to hear more useful news from the radio station, and began to try to find out how to subscribe to the "Defense Express" magazine.

However, the new issue of "Defense Express" has not been put on sale for a long time, as if some major news is quietly brewing.

The prison break incident is like throwing depth bombs into the magic world, which disturbs the peace of the magic world. However, these turmoils had no impact on Albert, who still spent the last few days of the Christmas vacation with his girlfriend.

"Did you write this manuscript?"

Yin Zebel put down the latest issue of "Defense Express" in his hand and looked at Albert with a strange expression.

The recently released "Defense Express" not only contains an interview with Harry Potter, but also an analysis of a series of strange behaviors of Minister of Magic Fudge.

The reason why Yin Zebel's manuscript is related to Albert is that many of the views in this manuscript are similar to many of what Albert said after the prison break in Azkaban. People can't help but have related associations. .

"That article was written by Rita Skeeter. That woman is really talented in this area, isn't she? She always catches readers' attention."

Albert scooped up the steaming Chaos and put it into his mouth to taste it carefully. The Chaos made from sea fish bone soup and sea fish meat was quite delicious.

"Would you like some?" Albert smiled and handed the spoon to the girl's mouth.

"I dare say Fudge will definitely hate this weekly, which will almost push him to the forefront." Yin Zebel opened his mouth and took the spoon handed by Albert, and shared the bowl of delicacies from the Far East together, "I always feel that If I keep eating like this, I will almost become a fat man."

Although she has been exercising seriously, she still needs to control her diet as much as possible to avoid causing greater harm to her body.

"Just control the amount of food and exercise." Albert stretched out his hand and pinched it and said, "It's not good to be too thin."

"Duplicity."

Yin Zebel raised his hand and poked Albert. He was sure that Albert liked beautiful girls.

After the two of them finished eating, they went back to rest.

The "Defense Express" was casually spread out on the table, and it happened to be a report about Fudge.

When Albert went back to rest with his girlfriend, Cornelius Fudge was in a bad situation, especially after the "Secrets Behind the Lies" article in "Defense Express" was published, which made him completely blind.

There was no way, Albert's stab was too fatal.

When people were dissatisfied with the Ministry of Magic for concealing the truth about the Death Eaters' escape from prison, the appearance of this article directly caused most people to question Fudge's approach.

Although they are also unwilling to believe the cruel truth that Voldemort has returned, the news of the Death Eaters' escape is like a slap in the face. It may not wake up those who are pretending to sleep, but it can also give them a hard blow. A serious reminder.

On the day Fudge took over "Defense Express" from Percy, he smashed up the office in a rage, and even ignored the opposition within the Ministry of Magic and directly wanted Sirius Black.

If the Azkaban prison breakout hadn't just happened, a large group of Aurors might have been mobilized to capture Sirius Black, who was disturbing public order. However, there is no evidence that Sirius is involved in this matter, and he spends most of his time at 12 Grimmauld Place. Even if Fudge wants to put Sirius in Azkaban Prison, there is nothing he can do.

"Defense Letter" became the focus of people's talk. Not only the students of Hogwarts, but also the entire British wizarding world knew of its existence.

Fudge had tried to prevent its spread in the wizarding world, but the effect was not great. People always found various ways to read the two articles above.

Suddenly, voices began to appear in the wizarding world asking Fudge to step down. Several people headed by Lucius Malfoy have become the targets of people's suspicion and vigilance.

Those two articles cleverly formed the effect of one plus one being greater than two.

"What are you doing?" Amelia Bones looked at the wanted criminal in front of her, "And you shouldn't be here."

"Don't worry, no one will guess who I am?" Sirius shrugged and said, "It won't cause you any trouble, not to mention it's Fudge's slander. I'm not a wanted criminal, and the Ministry of Magic doesn't have any evidence to prove it. "Defense Express" is related to me, and I cannot be considered guilty just because I bought a copy of "Defense Express."

"Tell me, what do you want from me? You know I'm very busy." Amelia Bones glanced at the "Defense Express" in front of her, picked it up and flipped through it. Although she had heard of this magazine, I haven’t read the contents yet.

"You should have noticed the Azkaban prison break." Sirius said unhurriedly: "Do you still think Dumbledore is lying?"

"So, you are here to laugh at me?" Amelia Bones raised her eyebrows, "By the way, I never think Dumbledore is lying."

"No, I just want to remind you that it's only a matter of time before that idiot Fudge steps down." Sirius took a sip of the black tea in the cup and said unhurriedly: "And you are already on that person's death blacklist. There are only two people who are still alive, and you are obviously no longer among them."

"You want to tell me I'm dying?" Amelia Bones put down the magazine.

"Yes, that's it. According to the prophecy, you won't survive this summer."

Amelia Bones fell into a short silence.

"I won't run away."

"I can understand your decision. This is just a well-intentioned advice, but you can't change anything?" Sirius sighed, "You are not them, you are too weak, so you are destined to be unable to win and cannot be stopped. There’s no way to escape.”

"Them?" asked Amelia Bones.

"Dumbledore, and... you know him." Sirius shrugged, "He doesn't like letting others know..."

"Albert Anderson?" Amelia Bones guessed who it was.

"Don't trust the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic. The Ministry of Magic has long been infiltrated into a sieve." Sirius changed the topic and said, "Also, you'd better change your residence, preferably one that uses the Loyalty Charm, unless you want to die in the middle of the night. At home, don’t think your defense against dark arts is good, if he comes to your door, you will die.”

Before leaving, Sirius did not forget to remind him: "If you want to avenge Edgar, you should cherish your life more. If you think clearly, you can talk to Dumbledore."

With that said, Sirius left a photo cut out from the newspaper and left.

Amelia Bones became even more silent. Her eyes fell on the latest photo. She put away the Defense Express and the photo, paid and left.

"You couldn't convince her?"

Tonks watched the leaving back of Amelia Bones, her eyes falling on the young man in front of her.

"It was impossible to succeed from the beginning." Sirius looked at the man's leaving figure and said calmly: "Amelia Bones is a very independent person and will not let her go because of our words. And change her decision."

There was one thing that Sirius didn't say, it was none of his business what happened to Amelia Bones.

He was able to remind the other party twice and do this, which is considered worthy of the friendship he had fought with Edgar in the first place.

"No wonder he always said that the results of prophecies are difficult to change." Sirius sighed silently in his heart, got up and left with Tonks.

"She really..."

In Hall 12, Grimmauld Place, Kingsley couldn't help but sigh after listening to Sirius's words. He didn't say much on this matter. The meeting of the Order of the Phoenix was still going on, and they were still surrounding the Death Eaters. The aftermath of the jailbreak incident.

"They are trying to find the master of prophecy, do you know who I am talking about?" Snape glanced at the parchment in his hand and reminded.

"You don't have to worry about this. Unless Anderson wants it, no one can find him." Sirius cast a look of contempt at Snape: "It's a shame that you have taught him for seven years and you haven't understood it yet. he."

Sirius's confidence in Albert came from the duel competition a while ago. The guy directly arranged the Death Eaters clearly and asked him to complete his revenge on Peter Pettigrew.

Snape ignored Sirius's contemptuous gaze and continued: "Brodrick Bode's death was caused by Death Eaters. Bode was recovering. They were afraid that Bode would reveal the news after he recovered, so they gave him a gift." There is a devil's net. Another thing, they are considering whether to use the Imperius Curse to control Fudge."

"They still need to control Fudge. Those who don't know better think that Fudge is with them." Tonks' tone was full of sarcasm. She was a loyal supporter of the "Secrets Behind the Lies" article, and she was able to hold a high position. , Fudge, who can become a minister, cannot be an idiot.

"Because of your Defense Letter." Snape glanced at Sirius.

"Don't worry about this for now. Even if Fudge is controlled, the situation will be worse." Mad-Eye interrupted: "Is there any other information?"

"The Dark Lord seems to have gotten some information from August Rookwood. Rookwood was once a silent man in the Department of Mysteries. I don't know exactly what it is, but they seem to have some plan." Snape He waved his wand to make the parchment in his hand disappear: "One more thing, Dumbledore wants me to teach Potter Occlumency to prevent his mind from being invaded by outsiders."

"You taught him?" Sirius looked disgusted, "I thought Dumbledore would find Anderson."

"Anderson refused." Snape curled his lips and said, "I heard that he thought Potter could not learn Occlumency, so he refused directly."

Bidige

"Are you sure you didn't say this?" Sirius stared at Snape.

"Well, if there is nothing else, I need to talk to Potter about this matter." Snape was too lazy to pay attention to Sirius.

Shortly after the meeting broke up, Snape saw the boy he hated.

"The Headmaster asked me to inform you, Potter, that he wants you to learn Occlumency this semester."

"Who will teach me?" Harry asked happily: "Anderson?"

"Myself." Snape raised his eyebrows and said, "Anderson refused to teach you because he thought you couldn't learn it."

"When Dumbledore said to find someone to teach me, he meant you." Harry's face suddenly darkened.

"I can assure you that this is not of my own free will, as it is not a pleasant job." Snape continued, "Tutoring alone once a week without telling anyone, especially Dolores Umbridge . It’s Monday night at six o’clock, in my office, and if anyone asks, just say it’s Potions tutoring.”

"Of course, if you are unhappy with this, I suggest you go to the principal."

After saying that, Snape strode away.

"What a nightmare," Harry muttered under his breath, "I bet Dumbledore must have made the wrong decision."

"If Snape dares to bully you, tell me." Sirius was annoyed. If he was good at Occlumency, Harry wouldn't have to find Snotlout.

"No, I can handle it." Harry changed the topic, "How should we go to Hogwarts tomorrow and use the Floo network?"

"We've booked a ride on the Knight Bus, which will take you right to the door of Hogwarts."

"It's not a pleasant experience sitting on that thing," Harry muttered.

"I know, but we have no better choice. It is not safe to take the train, and the Ministry of Magic will not allow us to put people on the train." Sirius explained, "The Floo Network can also be tampered with, and Fudge will definitely not That will be allowed."

When Harry was about to go back and tell Ron and Hermione about learning Occlumency from Snape, he heard Fred and George chatting with Bill about the prices of stores in Diagon Alley at the top of the stairs.

"He thought the price was too low."

"Don't worry, we can continue to chat with him. There is no need to worry about this matter. The next diagonal will be particularly declining. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com and it is best to find a few more stores. "After that, George stuffed a small bag of Galleons into Bill's hand. Under Bill's stunned eyes, he smiled and said, "Albert always said that Galleons can double people's efficiency. We don't have time to do this. So I can only ask you to worry more."

"Is this his motto?" Bill said, somewhat dumbfounded.

"Are you planning to open a store?"

"Yes, we are looking for a store. We have a feeling that it will be... intense when we return to school after the holidays." Fred and George both smiled meaningfully, "Harry, you'd better be prepared."

"You mean the toad can..."

"Toads can bite people too."

"What are you talking about? You don't need so much money." Bill planned to return the money bag to George.

"How much do you charge and how much do you do? Don't be lazy Bill." George patted Bill on the shoulder and said.
