Chapter 537 New World
Scrimgeour's good speech was disrupted by Ada, and the effect was even better than Scrimgeour's.
During Fudge's tenure, he first captured the remaining Death Eater Benedict Foley, then Sirius Black escaped from prison, and last year Voldemort made a comeback.
Each of these things is shaking the rule of the Ministry of Magic. After Voldemort's return and Fudge's deception of the public was revealed, the credibility of the Ministry of Magic has been greatly reduced.
If it weren't for the threat of Voldemort, I'm afraid many people would regard Fudge and the Ministry of Magic as the culprits. A more reckless person would even attack the Ministry of Magic from the bottom up and demand a public trial for some officials who had no idea what to do.
It was for this reason that Scrimgeour held a press conference on the pretext of escorting Ada. It is intended to tell the public that the dim and decadent Ministry of Magic is a thing of the past, and that the Ministry of Magic will defeat the darkness and defend the public under his leadership.
The starting point was good, and the effect was pretty good, but Scrimgeour ignored the most important point. He should cast a spell to silence Ada, or sew Ada's mouth shut.
Having studied under Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald, Ada still has two tricks up her sleeve.
Although it was the first time to do such a thing, Ada's performance was not good enough, but it was enough to arouse some people's pursuit of ideals and arouse the anger hidden in their hearts.
Why are people from the Ministry of Magic not punished when they make mistakes? Umbridge's crime has not yet been concluded, and Fudge has not been punished; why can mysterious people and Death Eaters kill and take whatever they want?
Why! We need a strong, fair and just Ministry of Magic, a new Ministry of Magic!
As long as the fanaticism in these people's hearts is aroused, Ada's crime will not be in vain.
Sitting in the Muggle car escorting her, Ada looked at the scenery passing by outside the window, feeling a little strange in her heart. Ada felt that she did not perform well and did not use her rhetoric to the extreme. She also forgot all the drafts she had made long ago when she opened her mouth.
Scrimgeour sat across from Ada and personally escorted her, not trusting anyone else. Scrimgeour's face was uglier than eating a dead fly. He knew very well who arranged the reporters who appeared later.
"Have you seen enough?" Ada turned back and said, "I have not taken Polyjuice Potion, nor am I an Animagus."
Scrimgeour said bitterly: "It was my mistake to let you speak. I thought everything was too simple. But it doesn't matter. When you enter Azkaban, it will be useless for you to say anything."
"I heard that the dementors have betrayed the Ministry of Magic." Ada said, "Without the dementors, is Azkaban still the most secure prison? Oh, I forgot, the dementors were not the most secure prison. Safe. Barty Crouch II, Sirius Black, and Benedick Foley, and maybe there are others, we just don’t know.”
The implication is that with Azkaban alone, can you trap me?
Scrimgeour looked sullen and said: "You will be under the strictest guard, the strictest ever. I will also order someone to make a mask later as your first gift when you enter Azkaban." "
"I hope the mask can be more beautiful, preferably with some nice patterns." Ada said nonchalantly.
The scenery outside the car window kept changing as the escorting convoy drove out of London and towards the suburbs. The escorting team will change transportation in the suburbs, and Muggle cars cannot fly across the vast North Sea.
Not everyone likes making cars fly.
"Where are we going?" Ada said, "The direction doesn't seem quite right."
Scrimgeour's smile was a bit triumphant, and he said: "Do you really think we don't know your plan? Or do you think we will still trust Pierce Thicknesse as always?"
"I led someone to capture you when you were not prepared," Scrimgeour continued. "Do you think that this kind of credit is enough for Thicknesse to ascend to the position of minister?"
Scrimgeour said loudly: "Dream! From the minute Thickness brought you back to the Ministry of Magic, we guessed your plan!"
At this time the car swayed to a stop, and Ada was roughly kicked out of the car by Scrimgeour.
This is an endless plain with no obstructions and no way to hide people. There is only a solitary carriage. More than a dozen Aurors surrounded Ada and Scrimgeour on three levels inside and three outside. She seemed to have no chance of escaping.
"You seem disappointed?" Scrimgeour said, "Thickness did not betray you, I just changed the transit place to prevent those desperadoes from France from kidnapping you!"
Without a wand, his hands tied, and alone, Scrimgeour didn't believe anyone could escape!
"To me, Piers Thicknesse cannot be said to have betrayed, nor did he betray the Ministry of Magic." Ada said, "It was indeed a lie to capture me, but he did not inform me of the escort route as you thought. "
Scrimgeour asked, "What do you mean?"
"If I was imprisoned in Azkaban, Thicknis would be the hero who captured the Dark Lord; if I was not imprisoned in Azkaban, our cooperation would begin." Ada explained, "He hopes I once again showed my strength and attacked his political opponents, and I needed a place where I could speak publicly and hit it off."
Scrimgeour's expression changed suddenly. He clapped his hands, and except for the Aurors in the outermost circle, all the others turned around and stared at Ada.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I don't plan to kill anyone today."
Ada continued arrogantly: "Some people kneel down and kiss my shoes and robe feet, and I will not forgive them. But Rufus, you are an exception. As long as you untie me, you will disrespect me." , I can be merciful and let things go."
"Daydreaming!" Scrimgeour shouted, "I will never succumb to the darkness." His body was trembling slightly, out of anger.
"I am in darkness, but I am yearning for the light, and you are the shadows under the light." Ada said, "Rufus, let's make a bet! In ten minutes, I will appear in the foyer of the Ministry of Magic, And you will all fall.”
Scrimgeour ignored it and motioned to the left and right to get Ada to the carriage. But just when the two Aurors were about to approach Ada, a sudden change occurred!
A large piece of mist suddenly appeared on this plain and spread out with the carriage as its origin.
Scrimgeour pulled out his wand and looked at Ada in surprise. He saw that the special gloves on her hands were melting away, and her handcuffs and shackles had turned into two big snakes, which instantly wrapped around the two Aurors.
Before Scrimgeour could wave his wand to attack, the sword turned into a metal glove was already close. Scrimgeour had to roll on the spot, otherwise his head would be moved.
After escaping the disaster, Scrimgeour looked again, and there was still the shadow of Ada holding a big sword. As far as his eyes could see, there was a thick fog that could not be broken away, and bursts of light illuminated by spells.
From the first day she could cast spells without a wand, Ada never stopped practicing. How could it be possible to collect the wand and tie her hands to prevent Ada from casting spells?
Moreover, who said you have to use your hands to cast spells without a wand!
The thick fog left just as quickly as it came, and it dispersed after five minutes.
Scrimgeour's eyes were finally able to see objects clearly, but what he saw in front of him was something he didn't want to see.
The Aurors were either lying on the ground unconscious, or tied into a pile with ropes and chains. It's true that Aurors are the best among the best, but they are also very powerless when facing wizards of Ada's level.
What's more, the thick fog just now caused the Auror to lose its target. Those lying on the ground were accidentally injured by their own people. But Ada has no scruples and just beats whoever she sees.
Holding the wand she snatched, Ada walked up to Scrimgeour.
This is the second time Scrimgeour has faced such a scene. Last time in the small park that surrounded Ada, the Aurors fell to the ground, and Scrimgeour stood at the end. It was the same this time.
"Rotation, darkness, and solidification are the shortcomings of the Ministry of Magic, but they are not the main cause. What really makes the Ministry of Magic weak is that you never know what it means to be powerful, and you lack awe for powerful people." Ada said , "The Ministry of Magic can swarm over and kill a demon king, but it depends on whether he gives you this opportunity."
"Is being strong the reason you act wantonly?" Scrimgeour said angrily. "Is being strong the reason you ignore the law? Is being powerful the reason you insult others at will?"
"Rules are used to protect the weak and restrict certain lawbreakers. They are made by the strong." Ada said, "You still don't understand, Rufus. Strong people can abide by the rules, such as Dumbledore; Strong people can also break the rules, like me, like Tom Riddle."
"Dumbledore has always been constrained by the rules, so you have forgotten what a king is." Ada said, "But I will not build a fence for myself, and the king's heart will not sleep forever."
Scrimgeour said disdainfully: "To put it bluntly, you are not acting arbitrarily! Your actions will only make the world more chaotic! You are the selfish thieves!"
"My arbitrary actions are better than your conservative ways." Ada said, "Well, it's time for me to go. The Ministry of Magic is still waiting for me! When I succeed, if you are still alive, you will See a new world.”
