The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Insert your hand deeply into your hair and pull it tight.

Fudge tried to relieve the panic in his heart with the tense pain of his scalp.

In the few short hours since the incident, he looked as if he had aged decades.

The notice issued by Scrimgeour can be said to have given him a blow to the head. After thinking about it so far, he felt that it was time for him to accept the facts.

Voldemort is really back!

Making this decision wasn't easy for Fudge.

Because this is tantamount to admitting that he is an incompetent clown, and the previous series of measures taken to fight against Dumbledore, as well as the speeches in the media in public will also become a farce.

It is foreseeable that he, the 'funny' Minister of Magic, will be nailed to the pillar of shame by the people for a long time in the future.

But if he continued to forcibly block the news and allowed Voldemort to grow bigger, then when Voldemort felt that he was strong enough and appeared in front of the people with a large group of Death Eaters, how would he deal with himself?

He would still be a joke then, and as Minister for Magic at the time, Voldemort would surely take his life.

Not only that, but he will also cause the country's magic world to enter the panic of war more than ten years ago.

Now it's not as simple as nailing him to the pillar of shame.

The angry people will definitely write Cornelius Fudge's name in the annals of history as a sinner, and maybe even erect a kneeling bronze statue of him in the hall of the Ministry of Magic or Diagon Alley, so that everyone who passes by here Everyone can be disgusted.

That scene was as natural as throwing a coin into the Magic Brothers Fountain!

Thinking of these scenes, Fudge couldn't help but shudder.

At the same time, a familiar figure slowly emerged in his mind.

Dumbledore!

Yes, Dumbledore!

The strongest white wizard of this century!

Although Fudge had had a bad quarrel with Dumbledore before, and even suspected that the reason why Dumbledore had been entrenched in Hogwarts for so many years was entirely to train his own army to compete for the control of the country and even other Ministry of Magic.

But until now, the first person he thought of was still Dumbledore.

This is a great man who has protected the country's magic world for more than half a century.

There was a gleam of hope in Fudge's eyes.

He took out a piece of parchment, and quickly began to write a letter to send to Dumbledore, asking for help.

As for whether Dumbledore will clear up his past suspicions and help him?

Fudge didn't think it was a big deal.

How could a great man like Dumbledore have the same knowledge as him?

What's more, helping the Ministry of Magic now means saving the lives of countless wizards and Muggles. Even if Dumbledore still has opinions on Fudge, he will still do it when it is time to do so.

Of course, while asking Dumbledore for help with a cheeky face, Fudge also intends to offer some substantial benefits to show his favor.

For example, Umbridge, the Hogwarts Inquisitor, must be withdrawn first.

The situation has changed now, and Fudge no longer needs Umbridge to investigate Dumbledore's private army and change the ideological education of Hogwarts students.

After all, in the current extremely anxious situation, Dumbledore can already be regarded as one of his own.

Fudge now wished that the group of student troops in Dumbledore's hands would be more powerful, which would also help him stop Voldemort.

In addition, Fudge felt that it was very necessary for him to write an "Edict of Guilt" and publish it.

This can remind the public to be vigilant about Voldemort's return in time, and at the same time, it can be regarded as letting him throw the blame out.

At that time, even if Voldemort really won the final victory, other people can only say that he is a bit stupid at most, but it is not enough to regard him as a sinner through the ages.

Three letters to Dumbledore, Umbridge and the Daily Prophet were written soon.

But Fudge didn't stop.

He wiped his sweaty forehead from being too nervous,

After continuing to dip the ink, he took another piece of parchment and started writing.

The present letter he was writing was arguably the most crucial of all.

He decided to support Scrimgeour's decision!

Although the other party was very rude, what Fudge had to admit was that the other party was indeed a capable person, and what he said was indeed reasonable.

In the face of the vicious Voldemort and Death Eaters, it is time to unblock the suppression of Aurors for more than ten years.

No, not just unblocking.

Should be given the greatest degree of support.

This support is not only reflected in unlimited funds, but also in policies.

Fudge also plans to change the Auror recruitment policy, and further launch social recruitment and veteran recall operations on the basis of increasing the number and scope of the original school recruitment.

The wages of avarice is death.

The above two policies, combined with unlimited financial support, should allow the strength of the Aurors and Strikers to recover to what they were before the damage in a short period of time at an alarming rate.

As for returning to the level during the Second Wizarding War, it will take time to grind.

Although Fudge did not participate in the battle as an experienced person, he could see it more clearly from the position of a bystander.

At that time, the reason why the Aurors were able to have such a strong combat effectiveness was not because of how good their commanders or military trainers were, but because of the high-intensity battles of the Second Wizarding War.

A brutal war is like a fine sieve.

It will mercilessly screen out those unqualified Aurors and strikers, leaving only the most elite parts.

So as long as the population base is large enough and the Ministry of Magic supports it long enough, it is inevitable that the Aurors' strength will be fully restored.

Of course, as a side effect of the sudden expansion of enrollment, the military discipline of these two troops will definitely not be very good in a short period of time.

But that was Scrimgeour's problem to deal with.

And just judging from the face of the other party coming forward to make demands with confidence, Scrimgeour should be very confident in this regard.

After the last letter was written and sealed, Fudge breathed a sigh of relief like letting go of a mountain.

He first tidied up his messy hair and greasy skin in front of a small mirror on the desk, until his demeanor returned to his previous appearance, and then he said loudly:

"Weasley!"

The office door was opened immediately, and Percy, who was wearing a suit and combing his hair back, walked in and saluted respectfully:

"Mr. Minister, is there anything I need?"

"Go and send these confidential letters to the address above, don't use an owl, and send the duty clerk of the Department of Magical Transport to Apparate!"

Fudge pushed the stack of letters forward as he spoke.

Hearing this, Percy immediately bowed, took the letter carefully, and walked out.

Percy hadn't shown any emotion of curiosity the whole time.

Fudge was very satisfied with this, and finally had a smile on his face.

It's a pity that this smile didn't last long.

Because just ten minutes later, the old Barty Crouch, with his hair combed meticulously, opened the door and walked in.

Fudge looked at Old Batty in surprise, and then his eyes fell on the stack of letters clutched in the other party's hand.

That was the letter he just asked someone to send! !

He looked up again, and sure enough, he saw Weasley with his head down, following behind old Barty with a look of fear on his face.

"Mr. Minister, I met Mr. Crouch just as soon as I went out. He, he..." Weasley stammered in a low voice, looking extremely aggrieved, "He took all your letters away !"

While Weasley was reporting to Fudge, Old Barty was already opening the letters in his office and reading them.

This action brought a flush of anger to Fudge's face.

He slammed the table and got up and shouted angrily:

"You're not the Minister of Magic, Crouch! You don't have the authority to inspect my letter! Put it down and apologize to me, now, right now!"

Fudge's voice made Percy's ears hurt, but old Barty ignored it.

He continued to flip through the letters in his hand, and after roughly scanning them all, he tore up the three letters that were originally intended to be sent to Dumbledore, Umbridge, and the Daily Prophet.

With the broken pieces of paper scattered all over the ground, Fudge's pupils shrank suddenly.

"How dare you be so rude to me?" said Fudge. "Weasley, get the guards to lock this guy up! Do you hear that, go!"

Hearing that, Weasley's expression was a bit embarrassed, but a trace of disdain flashed in the depths of his eyes.

He didn't understand what Fudge was bluffing about now.

Obviously Fudge, the Minister of Magic, has almost become a bare-bones commander, so how can he have so much prestige to play?

What's more, today was Christmas Eve, and apart from a few people like them who had no family or had conflicts with their families, there were not many people in the entire Ministry of Magic.

Where is he going to find the guards?

Even if the guards came, would those third-rate fighters really dare to touch old Mr. Barty Crouch?

On the other hand, seeing Weasley's delay in moving, Fudge became more and more hysterical.

At this moment, Old Batty said expressionlessly:

"Go out."

Upon hearing this, Percy immediately pretended to be pardoned, and left the office as if fleeing.

Before leaving, he carefully closed the door for the two of them.

What Percy didn't know was that as soon as he left, Fudge, who was so angry that he was almost mad, immediately calmed down.

He slumped down on the boss chair, and said to Old Batty:

"Crouch, now is not the time for us to fight for power. The difficulties we encountered are far greater than previously imagined. It's really back, and it's still as strong as it was back then!"

At this point, Fudge's voice has begun to tremble, "I understand that you want to be the Minister of Magic, and I understand that you hate me. But now our priority is to deal with the Dark Lord! When this matter is over, you can be safe Sit in my place, or even take revenge on me.

But for now, you must at least let me deliver the letter. Believe me, Dumbledore and the Aurors are our only hope now! "

After saying that, Fudge looked at Old Batty earnestly.

The speech just now used what he had learned all his life. Not only was he full of emotion, but also 70% true and 30% false, it can be called "sincere and sincere".

He believed that even an old fox like old Barty Crouch would be touched after hearing this.

Unfortunately, he was once again disappointed.

Because hearing that old Batty's expression didn't change at all, he just shook his head lightly.

"What exactly do you want?"

Fudge leaned forward and roared angrily.

Right now he is really angry.

"What do I want? Well, that's a good question." Old Batty finally had a smile on his face, "I'll tell you clearly. I want you to continue to sit in the position of Minister of Magic, and then continue to execute your The previous set of policies. That is... to conceal the news that Voldemort has been resurrected, and to confront and entrap Dumbledore."

Hearing this, the astonishment on Fudge's face flashed, and then his complexion became ashen again, and he said with a gloomy face:

"You have turned to the Dark Lord?"

"Huh? Connelly, I have to admit that your brain power is really strong!"

Old Batty's half-sarcastic answer made Fudge frown.

He couldn't think of any other motivation for Crouch than that.

You must know that if this continues, it will damage the interests of all of them!

Fudge, who still couldn't find the answer after thinking for a long time, simply asked directly:

"Then why are you doing this?"

Old Batty's expression immediately became weird.

He leaned close to Fudge's ear, lowered his laugh and said:

"Of course, for the greater good!"

As soon as this remark came out, Fudge was so frightened that he bounced back a long way, and almost fell off the boss's chair, pointing at Old Barty, "You, you, you..." He couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

Batty Sr.'s iconic words made the logic of the whole thing completely coherent.

It turns out that Voldemort is not the only one who wants to compete for the magic world in the country, but also the undead Grindelwald!

It turns out that Crouch has already joined the remnants of Grindelwald and has become a 'saint'!

Now it's all clear!

The group of people who fought in Gringotts with Aurors and Death Eaters today are the saints of Grindelwald!

Grindelwald's attention is too clever.

He wanted to make Voldemort grow bigger slowly, causing the entire wizarding world to complain.

Then he will appear as the savior at the most critical moment in the country's magic world.

How could Voldemort, the second-generation Dark Lord, be Grindelwald's opponent?

At that time, Crouch, the insider, will come forward to represent the Ministry of Magic's return to Grindelwald.

In this way, Grindelwald will be able to take over the dominion over the country's magic world in the name of absolute orthodoxy!

By the way, he can take revenge on Dumbledore who sent him into the tower back then!

The country's magic world is over.

He Fudge is finished too!

Because in the above plan, he, Fudge, is the biggest backer!

The people will not and are not willing to understand the fact that he has been emptied.

Those foolish people will only know that when the Ministry of Magic made the decision to let Voldemort develop and accumulate power at will, he, Cornelius Fudge, was the Minister of Magic.

Crouch and the others will put all the blame on him.

Then, on a sunny morning, a spectacular Wizengamot trial would be held for him.

In order to buy people's hearts, he will undoubtedly be sentenced to death and executed immediately.

And those shameless people like Crouch will stand on his corpse to accept the cheers and love of the people!
