Chapter 476: The Arrival of the Family [Twenty-Two/Thirty-Nine]

Chapter 476 The Family Arrives

But as long as it's not alliances, but hiring, things are much simpler. Hiring some magical creatures, even evil creatures, is not unacceptable for wizards.

Wizards are proud on the one hand, but on the other hand they know how to work around, especially when necessary. Since it is not an alliance with monsters, things are not so difficult to accept, and hiring evil creatures is also an ancient tradition of wizards.

"Then Hagrid will be responsible for hiring giants. He can first consider the cost of hiring giants. Within a reasonable range, we can accept it."

George turned his gaze to Dumbledore and said calmly, "Of course, if the giant's request is too unreasonable, I think the Aurors don't mind confronting a few more monsters."

Dumbledore nodded slowly, this approach was more acceptable than the decision against Azkaban. I only hope that the goodwill passed on in advance, coupled with the relationship of Hagrid, can prevent the giant from falling to Voldemort in the battle.

After saying this, George started to enjoy his breakfast. He didn't know what questions those teachers would ask him for help next. At least he had to hurry up and fill some stomachs first.

Fudge hesitated, he had more questions for George to make up his mind. The resurrection of Voldemort caused an uproar, not just simple questions like Azkaban and giants.

What's more troublesome is that the public opinion of the wizards, their distrust of the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts, will have a great negative impact on everything that follows.

Some time ago, he tried his best to suppress the rumors of Voldemort's resurrection at the Ministry of Magic, but Voldemort was resurrected, and he attacked Hogwarts with great fanfare.

Voldemort almost ruled the world. If it weren't for George's obstruction, the entire wizarding world would be licking Voldemort's robes now.

He had received a lot of criticism at the Ministry of Magic for his wrong attitude to suppress news of Voldemort's resurrection. Even Arthur Weasley, the good old man, seemed indifferent to him, which was not a good thing. He knew that the Arthur Weasley family had a good relationship with George.

Yesterday's Daily Owl and Prophet, apart from mostly accusations, questioned Dumbledore. There are also a small number of criticisms against him, accusations against him, accusations that the Ministry of Magic is not doing things well.

This made Fudge feel some crisis, and his position as Minister of Magic was not very secure without George's support.

Fudge pondered for a moment and said cautiously, "In addition to the two things just now, more importantly, how can we clarify to the wizards what happened the day before yesterday."

"The rumors spread in the school have made the outside world panic. We tried to clarify, but we don't know the specific situation of many things."

Fudge's eyes subconsciously glanced at Dumbledore. The person who really knows everything is the most powerful wizard in the magic world. But it's not easy to get him to tell everything.

He continued, "Next we need to interrogate Barty Crouch Jr. He has been hiding at Hogwarts for almost a year, and he must know a lot of information."

Yesterday, others kept making requests to interrogate Barty Jr. But Fudge had been holding back the interrogation, waiting for George to wake up.

While he can't wait to find out what's going on, in this situation, the most important thing is always to get George's support. The interrogation of Barty Jr. would never have started without George's participation.

George pondered these questions as he ate his bread. For most things, he had some plans before, but the changes and developments of things affected the next decision. Next, the first thing that needs to be done is to interrogate Barty Jr.

"When we wait, we'll start interrogating Barty Jr., and then..." George's voice stopped. There was a commotion and footsteps, and many people came in from outside the auditorium.

George glanced in the direction of the door, and unexpectedly saw two familiar figures.

He stood up immediately, wiped his mouth and hands with a towel, and strode up.

Fudge also hurriedly knocked off the chair and walked up.

"I don't think it's a happy thing to read the news of your victory over Voldemort from the Daily Prophet." A voice said with a stern tone.

George stroked the back of his head embarrassedly and said, "It happened so suddenly, I had to bite the bullet and confront Voldemort. After the battle, I was so tired, I just got up for breakfast, and I was about to write to you. "

If it was said beforehand, he was afraid of his family's worries, and deliberately concealed that Voldemort might attack in a big way. So after the battle, he was really tired and forgot everything, and now, he just got up and didn't have time to think about him.

"Yes, Mrs. Soros. Mr. George has just woken up, and we are still pestering him to make up his mind about Azkaban and the giants, and he hasn't been busy enough to write to you yet. It's all our fault."

Fudge said in a flattering tone, "For now, let's not disturb Mr. George. Let's talk first. You can talk about other things later."

Fudge immediately made a decision for the others. At this time, Mr. George should take care of his own affairs first, and other things can be said later.

A group of teachers glared at Fudge, and before they agreed, Fudge made his own claim. They didn't think that chatting with family was more important than Voldemort's business.

Snape looked gloomy and looked at Dumbledore with a complicated look, but then he showed a hint of disgust and turned his eyes away. He cast his eyes on George with a thoughtful look on his face.

"George..." Professor Flitwick just spoke when he saw George raise his hand and make a gesture.

George motioned for them not to speak, he said calmly.

"I'm sorry, I have to excuse me. I have something to say later. Fudge and Dumbledore are both here. You will need to discuss things first, and prepare each other's response. After noon, we will interrogate first. After that, Barty Jr, deal with other things."

In an instant, George had made up his mind. Voldemort was still injured and would not come out at all. At this time, there was nothing more important than the conversation with his family.

After that, George walked out of the castle with his grandmother and Anna.

Walking on the lawn, facing the slight cool breeze in the morning and the faint golden brilliance, they chatted peacefully outside the castle.
