  Chapter 1070 Problem Solvers

   Before Fudge could completely clear his mind, he found himself in new trouble.

   Every newspaper except the Daily Prophet reported on the incident, and even published a photo that Fudge had received earlier. It's not the same photo, but it's clearly the same style, and you can still see Peeves throwing things at the Aurors in the photo.

  The Aurors of the Ministry of Magic actually fainted near the gate of Hogwarts. In short, the Ministry of Magic has once again become the laughing stock of the entire British magic community. Many wizards are questioning the level of the Aurors, and even think that it is because of the poor level of the Aurors that they cannot catch the escaped Death Eaters.

  Fudge's political opponents even took the opportunity to add insult to injury, mocking Fudge's incompetence, and hinting that Fudge's ministerial position is coming to an end.

  Fudge had to convene a high-level meeting of the Ministry of Magic to discuss how to solve the current problem.

"I'm sure this is definitely a good thing done by those people at Hogwarts." Fudge slammed several newspapers on the table, and roared angrily, "Some guys with malicious intentions are going to Trying to discredit the Ministry of Magic and reduce its credibility is a serious violation..." Halfway through Fudge's speech, he seemed to have forgotten something, and turned to look at Percy.

   "The crime of disturbing the public order!" Percy added.

   "Yes, the crime of disturbing public order." Fudge waved his fist angrily.

  Everyone fell into a brief silence, and bowed their heads no longer to look at Fudge. This so-called "crime of disturbing public order" was only added to the Ministry of Magic law a while ago.

   Today's Ministry of Magic is becoming more and more ridiculous under the leadership of Fudge.

   "I can understand your mood, Minister, but right now we don't have much energy to waste on Hogwarts." Auror Office Director Rufus Scrimgeour spoke first.

   As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted other people's eyes, and those eyes seemed to say: What can you understand, what a fart you understand.

   Scrimgeour ignored the gazes of other people, and said expressionlessly: "Our manpower is seriously insufficient. According to the news reported by the Aurors, it is not difficult to see that the Ministry of Magic has a very bad reputation in Hogwarts, very..."

   "That's Dumbledore deliberately sowing discord." Fudge said excitedly, "He tried to set up Dumbledore's Army to overthrow..."

"According to the information provided by the Aurors, Dumbledore's Army didn't exist from the very beginning, and the so-called DA refers to the Defense Association." Amelia Bones had to interrupt Fudge, otherwise God knows the topic would be discussed. Where did Fudge take it?

   "Dumbledore himself admitted it." Fudge growled, "I have a clear record here, and Weasley was there at the time."

   "Yes, Dumbledore did admit it." Percy agreed.

   "Perhaps, there are other reasons."

"That's not important, they also set up a ridiculous 'toad alliance'." Scrimgeour frowned and interrupted: "I mean, no matter how you look at it, Hogwarts students are very We don't know if what happened to Mrs. Umbridge has anything to do with the Ministry's interference in Hogwarts, but...if those so-called 'Toad League' or 'Anti-Toad League' students take other measures against the Ministry, It would be meaningless to send more people to Hogwarts, unless we change all the professors there and use the strictest management method to control it, sooner or later there will be big troubles."

"There is also the information revealed by Harry Potter provided by Mrs. Umbridge." Rufus Scrimgeour continued: To be honest, I doubt the truth of those words, I don't mean ha Leigh Potter was lying, but he didn't even know that Potter's news came from his godfather, Sirius Black, and Black was undoubtedly a cunning wizard, so how many lies were there in Potter's words? We don't know this.

Rufus Scrimgeour doesn't want the Aurors to go deep into the Forbidden Forest to search for the so-called Dumbledore's secret base, God knows if this is true, and he doesn't want his men to go into the Forbidden Forest adventure.

  Even if you really want to search the entire Forbidden Forest, it is not something that can be done by just a few Aurors. If all the Aurors go, what should we do with the rest?

"I think there should be some secrets hidden in the Forbidden Forest. Regardless of whether Mr. Potter knows what it is, or Sirius Black deliberately guided it, those words have some meaning. At least we can assume that certain conditions are true. The meaning of Dumbledore's doing this." Piers Thicknesse said, they all acquiesced to the fact that Umbridge used Veritaserum on Harry Potter, so there was no doubt about what Potter said.

   As for whether Voldemort is alive or not, Thicknesses is on the sidelines, and many wizards actually have the same attitude.

   "We don't have enough Aurors, maybe you don't know, the Auror Office hasn't had any new Aurors for three years." Scrimgeour reminded with a frown.

There are not many Aurors in the Auror office, and no one has been hired in the past three years. Now there is a serious shortage of manpower. Even if you want to expand the number of recruits, there is no way, unless you lower the standard, or... In short, these Lin Jie doesn't seem to be a good choice.

   "I'm more concerned about the 'weapon' that Potter said." Amelia Bones tapped her finger on the table, attracting the attention of everyone present.

   "That's just a wild fantasy." Fudge glared at Amelia Bones angrily.

"I have to remind you that a lot has happened in the Department of Mysteries recently." Amelia Bones ignored Fudge's annoyed expression and said to herself: "At the end of August, Sturgis Podmore attempted to Breaking into the Department of Mysteries was arrested, Arthur Weasley was bitten by a poisonous snake before Christmas break, and Broderick Bird was hospitalized for some reason, and his death was also very suspicious. Originally I thought Rodriguez C. Bird's death was an accident, but now they have one thing in common: the Department of Mysteries. Is there something in the Department of Mysteries that draws him or her?"

   "It's just your guesswork, Burns," said Fudge angrily, "And the Department of Mysteries is safe."

"We should recruit some wizards to join the emergency team now, and first find out what's going on at Dumbledore's secret base." Fudge made up his mind and continued, "As for Hogwarts, let's ignore it for now, and wait for Umbridge to recover. , She will continue to be in charge of Hogwarts affairs."

   Everyone felt that Fudge was absurd, and they didn't understand what the **** he was trying to do.

   "Weasley, have you found out who is playing tricks at Hogwarts?" Fudge asked off topic.

   "We should first find out who attacked John Dawlish and his group at the school gate. There was only one person on the other side, and they easily knocked down ten elite Aurors..." Scrimgeour felt that Fudge just wanted to shirk responsibility.

   "There are not many wizards who have this ability and dare to do so." Fudge interrupted impatiently: "It's either Dumbledore, or Albert Anderson. The possibility of Dumbledore's personality is not high, but..."

   "Ahem..." Percy Weasley suddenly coughed violently.

"...Albert Anderson is more likely. As a dueling champion, it is not impossible to knock down ten well-trained elite Aurors in a surprise attack." Fudge looked at his assistant and found that Percy was heading towards him Blinking, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "Do you have anything to add, Weasley."

   "No Minister."

  Percy sighed silently in his heart, planning to report to Fudge later.

   "Speak up if you have something to say." Scrimgeour looked at Fudge's assistant. He felt that this guy wanted to say something just now. As the person in charge Fudge sent to investigate the whole matter, he must have discovered some secret.

   "I think you must know the specific situation better than others, and report your investigation to me now." Burns said.

   "If you have any clues, it's best to report them as soon as possible."

   Not only Scrimgeour, but everyone else looked at Percy. They were scared by Fudge's tricks, and they didn't want to continue stepping into the pit.

  Pierce Thicknesse even stood up straight away, reaching out to Percy for the report in his hand.

  Percy hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Fudge.

   Fudge didn't seem to understand why Percy was looking at him, but he said, "Here."

  Percy gives the report to Piers Thicknesse.

  He took the report, flipped through the contents on the parchment, looked up at Fudge again, and fell into a brief silence.

  Pierce Thickness's reaction seemed to indicate that there was something wrong with the report, and it was related to Fudge, so Percy Weasley didn't speak.

  Others flipped through it, and all fell silent. The last report was placed in front of Fudge. After flipping through the report, the Minister of Magic finally understood why everyone had such a reaction.

  Albert Anderson was in Transfiguration class at the time, and the entire class could testify against him, so Fudge's suspicions of Albert were simply impossible.

   Fudge glared at Percy, dissatisfied with his assistant's behavior.

  However, he would never realize that it was entirely Fudge's fault that the report was not handed over to Fudge in the first place.

"How likely do you think Albert Anderson is the mysterious wizard that Dawlish said? You should know him!" Scrimgeour ignored Fudge with a gloomy face, he was more interested in Albert Anderson interest.

  Percy glanced at Fudge, and seeing that he had no objection, he cleared his throat and said, "If it's just based on strength, I think the probability of Anderson is not low."

   "Is he very powerful?" Pierce Thickness asked curiously.

   "World Duel Champion." Scrimgeour reminded.

"I think that's his level of exposure," Percy recalls. "Actually, Albert Anderson has been renewing my perception of genius, and you know he's won a lot of world titles, but still No one knows where his limit is."

   "Although Mr. Anderson has had some unpleasant things happen to the Ministry of Magic, the probability of causing trouble to the Ministry of Magic is not high."

"Why?"

   "Based on what I know about Anderson, that guy will ignore the Ministry of Magic more often."

   "Go on," said Scrimgeour.

  "Once the Ministry of Magic takes the initiative to conflict with him, his character will definitely fight back violently, and it will not be as simple as being knocked down by the Stunning Curse."

  The three who had been disarmed all fell silent.

"continue."

   "Although Mr. Anderson has a good relationship with Hagrid, he is actually good with most wizards. He even established a wizard card club and invited students from the four colleges to participate."

"So, Anderson has a good relationship with the students of the four houses, and even the Slytherin house, which has the worst relationship with Gryffindor House, can still find friends." Percy looked around the crowd and continued: "So, even if Albert He doesn't like the Ministry of Magic very much, and at most he won't work in the Ministry of Magic after graduation, especially when he has the entire class of students testifying, the probability of being the mysterious wizard is very low."

"I remember Potter once mentioned that Anderson can predict the future?" Rufus Scrimgeour was actually more concerned about this matter, "Since he has the ability to help Black find Peter Pettigrew, can we use him to find those who escaped? What about the Death Eaters?"

  Other people around began to whisper.

   "The...probability is probably not high." Percy felt that this group of people was just trying to eat farts. With Albert's character, he would probably ignore them directly.

   "Because Mr. Anderson had some unpleasant things with the Ministry of Magic?" Scrimgeour asked with a frown. "Tell me, Weasley, I think you should know it!"

   "Looks like..." Percy glanced furtively at Fudge.

   "What is it, make it clear, don't hesitate?"

   "At the beginning, the Ministry of Magic did not offer a reward to Mr. Anderson for capturing Black and Peter, but later..." Percy glanced at the few people present, and whispered: "The Wizengamot British teenagers..."

   "If we want Anderson's prophecy ability to be used by us, what should we do?" Scrimgeour asked. If Anderson is really that powerful, many problems can be solved easily.

   "It's difficult, unless the Ministry of Magic is willing to pay a large sum of Galleons for the divination fee, maybe he might agree to help with the divination."

"possible?"

   "From what I know of Anderson, it probably depends on... how he feels." Percy didn't think they could succeed.

   "Even if you give a large sum of Galleons, it depends on his mood?" Everyone frowned.

   “Anderson himself was rich, very rich,” recalls Percy.

   "Is there any other way to let him work for the Ministry of Magic, now is the critical moment of employing people, I..."

   "My suggestion is not to annoy him completely. It's very irrational. Once a person who rarely loses his temper gets angry, no one knows what will happen, especially Anderson has a level almost like Dumbledore."

   "Do you think he has Dumbledore's level?" Amelia Bones asked with raised eyebrows.

"Maybe not now, but it will definitely be achieved in the future. Unlike Dumbledore, Anderson is almost all-rounder. He is the top group of people in every item. Maybe he can be competent in everything except being unable to have children. "

"I suggest getting in touch with him. If Anderson is willing to provide us with information, we can pay him according to the Garen who provided the clue reward on the wanted list." Rufus Scrimgeour looked up and said to everyone, "Whether it is Catch the escaped Death Eaters, or... no, as long as he can help us catch the escaped Death Eaters, that's enough."

   Scrimgeour suspected that it was that guy who reminded himself earlier, and he planned to find time to get in touch with the other party, at least for mutual benefit.
