Chapter 249: Questioning Body

Chapter 249 Questioning Body!

Percy arrives with Arthur.

This child, who had not been home since the death of Mr. Barty Crouch, knew nothing about the old Black House. He did not lower his voice. Mr. Arthur only focused on discussing with him what happened in the Ministry of Magic today. Forgot to tell him.

After entering the door.

Percy didn't lower his voice.

Disturbing the portrait at the door, a shrill scream rang out.

"George and Fred are already adults, and they haven't gotten rid of their prank habits yet?" Percy's face turned green, and he and his father hurriedly closed the fallen curtains.

Arthur was distressed: "It would be great if this was a prank by George and Fred!"

This thing is much more difficult than a prank.

"Tonks, you did it again." Molly walked out of the kitchen angrily, holding her wand and followed by pots and pans.

Seeing the two people walking back and forth in the foyer, her words and movements stopped.

Two men, no women.

One of them was the one she thought about day and night, making Arthur unable to sleep.

"Percy?" Molly's voice was trembling.

Percy raised his hand and waved it stiffly: "Hi, Mom, long time no see."

"You're coming back for dinner tonight and you're not going to work overtime?" Molly muttered, complaining dissatisfiedly, "I didn't even tell you in advance. I have to be an extra person temporarily."

With a big smile on her face, she turned around and walked to the kitchen.

Arthur dropped his outstretched hand and sighed. He had just planned to ask Molly to help him, so as to calm down this noisy old woman first.

at dinner.

This was almost the last time Harry and the others had meals cooked by Molly this year. She was very attentive and thoughtful in preparing their favorite food for everyone, even Percy, who had just returned, didn't leave any behind.

George and Fred pestered Percy to talk about what happened at the Ministry of Magic today.

They also asked after Harry came back.

But Harry's answer was very perfunctory. After a fair trial by the Ministry of Magic, he was quickly cleared of his innocence. Although he was a little unhappy about the repayment, the Ministry of Magic readily provided the collateral.

these words

Something doesn't sound right.

The two brothers couldn't believe it. The British Ministry of Magic couldn't be so normal.

From Percy's mouth, they heard another version.

Harry used sharp words, powerful fists, and Dumbledore on the side to use unimaginable superb magic to exert pressure, allowing him to escape the "just trial" of the Ministry of Magic, and beat an entire proud man to the ground in full view of the public. Luo's office, steal the Magic Brothers Fountain and the coins inside.

"Really?" George and Fred were shocked.

Ron yearned.

Hermione exclaimed: "Harry, you told me it wasn't so dangerous."

"Of course it's not that dangerous." Harry nodded, "I didn't use my fists, Professor Dumbledore just conjured a cup of thick syrup."

Dumbledore muttered: "That's not ordinary syrup, that's maple syrup."

Hermione curled her lips: "The curse can't produce food."

Dumbledore explained to Hermione in a low voice the principle of magic, which was not very complicated. It was a combination of summoning spells and food magic.

Harry ignored the small class over there and continued: "We explained the facts calmly, and it was very effective. Director of Magical Enforcement——"

At this point, he felt a little stuck and looked at Percy.

Percy corrected seriously: "It's the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and the director is Ms. Amelia Bones."

"Ms. Bones is very fair. In the final vote, the majority believed that I was not guilty." Harry continued, "As for beating up the entire Auror office, it's not that scary. I just cooperated with Mr. Scrimgeour."

"He had to be knocked down by me before he could let me do things. He didn't want to stand against me at all."

He paused: "It's true that the Magic Brothers Fountain was moved."

George and Fred were almost overflowing with shock.

Tonks clapped her hands and praised: "Harry, I have to praise you, you are so great!"

"I have long wanted to get rid of that annoying statue. How can the Ministry of Magic put that thing away?"

Molly nodded in deep agreement.

"Tonks, you are an Auror," Percy muttered.

Even if you are happy, there is no need to show it so obviously.

Tonks shook her head and her hair turned into colorful colors, like a rainbow: "This is at home, so we don't need to be so restrained. Percy, don't be so tight."

Percy coughed twice.

"I remember that statue was made of solid gold." George twirled his fingers, "How many galleons can it sell for?"

“How much is gold now?”

Fred lowered his head along with him, counted on his fingers, and reacted suddenly: "George, we don't seem to have thought about gold. After all, we were all poor last year."

"That thing is worthless. It looks fancy, but it's actually just gold-plated brass." Harry waved his hand in disgust, "It's worthless at all. It can only be sold for three or four hundred Galleons."

George and Fred sighed in disappointment.

It’s not pure gold!

"Three or four hundred is actually not bad?" Ron was very satisfied. He whispered, this would be enough for him to have enough pocket money until graduation, and he was much richer.

Harry glanced at them: "Not to mention other things, the Triwizard Tournament prize money Ludo took away was a thousand galleons."

"It might not even be enough to pay George and Fred back."

"That damn guy." George clenched his fists, his eyes full of anger.

After they discussed Ludo for a while, they continued to ask.

Percy talked about the rumors he heard today: "After Harry left, the Ministry of Magic was in chaos. Director Scrimgeour went to Minister Fudge, and they both seemed to have a fight."

"Fight?" Ron was puzzled, "Why?"

He couldn't understand it.

If there was nothing wrong with his ears and analysis, and the chaos in the Ministry of Magic was caused by Harry, why did Scrimgeour and Fudge fight?

"Because Scrimgeour didn't want to stand on the opposite side of Harry." Percy said concisely.

Ron was confused and still couldn't understand it.

"Little Ronnie, you are going to be a prefect, you can't be so naive anymore." Percy sighed and looked at Harry, "Even if Harry is around, you should try to be independent."

Ron put his hands on his hips, what does this have to do with the Ministry of Magic.

"There are two voices in the Ministry of Magic now. One is on Fudge's side. They support Fudge to take action against Harry." Percy explained in detail, "But there are very few people who have this idea, only Minister Fudge's most staunch supporters."

"There are also a considerable proportion of directors and directors who also support Minister Fudge. Although the number is small, they are all senior officials."

"Most people can't understand Minister Fudge's ideas and don't understand why he is so radical. Harry can obviously be a good friend of the Ministry of Magic, just like Professor Dumbledore."

"The Ministry of Magic can obviously avoid going through this storm. It is not a wise choice to offend a powerful wizard who is not so willing to abide by the rules."

Percy frowned and became distressed.

Harry shook his head: "They just dare not admit that Voldemort is trying to resurrect, nor do they dare to admit that Voldemort still has a considerable number of supporters."

This name made the atmosphere at the dinner table a little cold.

But it soon became lively again. George and Fred were arguing. Wherever they were, there would be constant excitement.

The next day.

Arthur drove them to King's Cross Station, and when they boarded the train, Hedwig and Bowes each flew over with a newspaper in their mouths.

The Quibbler and the Daily Prophet were competing against each other, and both published what happened in the Ministry of Magic yesterday on their front pages.

They just had different positions and different headlines.

The Daily Prophet published a photo of Harry opening his pocket and putting the Galleons in. The angle was tricky, and you could see the photographer's idea, trying to make Harry look as wretched as possible, but he stood straight, not showing the temperament of a "thief" at all, but the composition was very strange, making people uncomfortable.

"Robbery, Harry Potter made a scene in the Ministry of Magic, injuring dozens of staff members"

In this article.

It avoided the main point and wrote that Harry refused to go to the interrogation room for questioning, and the conversation with Minister Fudge was not pleasant. When he returned to the hall, he dismantled the "Magic Brothers Fountain".

The reason was not stated directly, but after reading the article, you will receive a hint - Potter took the fountain and coins away because of the unpleasant conversation with Fudge, in order to retaliate.

The Quibbler published a photo of Harry waving his wand, a water ball exploding, and a raging waterfall rolling with waves. The angle was excellent, and the camera lens was stained with water droplets. It is conceivable that the cameraman's fate after taking the photo.

The title sounded indignant.

"Forced to collect debts, what happened to the Ministry of Magic in recent years?"

Rita started from the Triwizard Tournament, Ludo cheated the unknown Weasley brothers of fireworks and the Triwizard Tournament prize money, and then went to Ragnak's blacksmith shop. The Ministry of Magic promised to give Harry a share. It was clear and blunt, pointing out how shameless the Ministry of Magic was, even cheating children's money.

"The Daily Prophet is getting more and more excessive." Hermione slammed the newspaper on the table, and Bors, who was standing next to him, trembled with fear. He grabbed the window sill but didn't stand firmly, and his head jumped out, flapping his wings for a long time before flying back again.

"Didn't Rita speak for Harry?" Ron muttered, turning the page of the magazine and reading the contents behind it - Mr. Lovegood's unrealistic ramblings.

"There will always be people who don't read The Quibbler." Hermione frowned and shook her head. If she didn't know that Rita was one of her own, she would never have subscribed to this magazine.

Ron put the magazine down, his face full of polluted look: "They will be glad that they didn't read The Quibbler."

Hermione glared at him.

Ron argued: "I mean, everyone in Hogwarts will believe Harry." He paused and quickly added: "Except for those guys in Slytherin."

"Apart from that, I don't think I saw any new professors on the train this year?"

Hermione snorted unhappily and reached into Harry's pocket.

Harry said calmly: "Uncle Remus has no money, so he takes the train with the students."

Today is gone, I seem to have a cold after waking up from a nap in the afternoon
