v3 Chapter 168： Dumbledore's mistake

Latest website: In just six years, Dumbledore's reputation has changed from a saint who is enough to save the world to an old and confused old man. This is by no means what the Daily Prophet newspaper can do. And Dumbledore's age in his early 100s is indeed a long life in the non-magical world, but there is a precedent in the magical world. Faris Spavin, the twentieth minister of the Ministry of Magic, was 109 years old when he became the Minister of Magic. ! Being old and dazed in the wizarding world is not a solid excuse.

But why does everyone believe it?

The change in Fudge's attitude stemmed from Dumbledore's lack of strong performance in the two incidents, which suddenly made Fudge feel that "it turns out that Dumbledore is nothing special." Woke up. When Fudge was at his most arrogant, he even thought he could capture Dumbledore at Hogwarts with a few Aurors - his brain was broken.

Coincidentally, the two incidents that damaged Dumbledore's reputation were related to Hagrid. In the second year, when the Chamber of Secrets reopened, Dumbledore was unable to resolve the Chamber of Secrets incident, making the statement that Hogwarts was the safest place in the wizarding world a joke—what happened in the following years made this statement even more so. became a meme.

Hogwarts is the safest place in the wizarding world, and then trolls and basilisks roam in it. Werewolves and death eaters directly give lectures here. The professors of Defence Against the Dark Arts here change every year, even the most tragic after World War II. The Wizarding War broke out here too...

When Hagrid was suspected by the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore failed to protect him and sent him to Azkaban to spend a few months in prison. This is nothing, after all, Dumbledore is a white wizard and must obey the law, but when the truth comes out and Hagrid clears his grievances, what did Dumbledore do? He didn't do anything but restore Hagrid's reputation, and he didn't fight for some compensation - nothing else, at least a little Galleon!

Don't say that Hagrid is an invisible local tyrant and has no shortage of money. This is a matter of attitude. Hagrid's behavior and Dumbledore's usual asylum for him both showed one thing: Hagrid was Dumbledore's man. But in the event of an accident, Dumbledore could only express his objection without any pain, and could not help in substance, and Hagrid would still go to jail. After the event was rehabilitated, there was no way to seek compensation.

Co-authoring the identity of this "own person", or does it have an expiration date? I am your eldest brother on weekdays, and I am not familiar with you.

Even if Dumbledore made a statement and locked Hagrid at Hogwarts? Filch's office can be converted into a prison cell! Professor Snape can also contribute his own dungeon. No matter how gloomy and cold the dungeon is, the environment is better than Azkaban.

What's even more outrageous is that Dumbledore can clear the identity of the suspect Hagrid with just one sentence: Voldemort's name was Tom Riddle when he was in school at Hogwarts. As long as such a fact is revealed, the charges against Hagrid can be dropped directly.

Why? Because Tom Riddle exposed Hagrid! Later, this Riddle became Voldemort, so can his report still count? Shouldn't it be the wicked demon king who has bullied honest classmates since he was a student, causing his classmates to suffer unjust injustice?

Things that can be solved with just a little operation have to be dragged on, causing Hagrid to be wronged for decades.

Tom feels bad about it! Dumbledore was wrong.

The second-grade secret room incident and the third-grade hippogriff incident directly led to the real Voldemort's comeback. Dumbledore was not Fudge's opponent in the public opinion showdown. He was hacked together with Harry for a school year, and was even hacked. Get out of Hogwarts...

It all has to do with the weakness he has shown over the years. But it won't be like this now, someone wants to make Dumbledore "hard".

Tom could not accept that Dumbledore's prestige had been undermined a little. The situation is much stronger now than it has been in history - Fudge has been beaten! Burns, with Dumbledore's support, ripped Fudge to the ground - whatever the truth is, as long as others think it is, it is the truth.

As long as Dumbledore wins the duel against the Purebloods, this victory can be cemented.

So Tom decided to send Ms. Burns an email to let her know what was going on. Of course, Tom was willing to believe that Minister Burns had just been oblivious, allowing Lucius Malfoy to take advantage of the window of opportunity. She can still perform well in the final trial in April! After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Burns must be able to make the right call.

He has been busy inside and out for so long during this period of time, what is it for? Wasn't it just to keep the Ministry of Magic from holding back Dumbledore at a critical moment? It is also time to let the purebloods know the strength of Dumbledore.

"Don't worry, Hagrid," Tom comforted Hagrid perfunctorily, "everything will be fine."

"Yeah," Hermione added, "you can still go to Professor Dumbledore! Does he have anything to say?"

Hagrid whimpered, "Professor Dumbledore has done so much for me, he's been busy enough—"

Tom: Really? I don't believe it, in fact, the old man has been quite busy recently. He doesn't need to worry about the Dementors anymore, and he doesn't need to think about Sirius anymore. The succession of the Minister of Magic has also been settled, and all he has to do is the thing that he and he negotiated before.

But he didn't say it, just watched it all happen silently.

"Hagrid, you can't give up," Hermione looked at Hagrid seriously. "I remember seeing a hippogriff's case where it was released. I'll go check it out for you. , and see how the case went."

Hagrid cried even louder. Hermione looked at Tom with pleading eyes.

"Maybe what he needs is a hot drink." Tom shrugged, saying nothing to someone in a meltdown.

"Leave him alone It's lunchtime." Tom tugged at Hermione's sleeve, he didn't want to continue entanglement with Hagrid. After studying all morning, he was hungry and desperately wanted to eat.

The matter of Hagrid could not be solved by persuading him. The crux of the problem was off-field interference. And in a strict sense, Hagrid was indeed wrong, and he and Malfoy should each share 50% of the blame for this accident.

Malfoy is very deadly, but Hagrid is not dead? The first time I went to class, I took a group of little wizards to see several hippogriffs that were not under control. The school board's evaluation of his recklessness was not bad at all.

"Tom!" Hermione glared at Tom, what he said was too heartless, didn't you see Hagrid so sad?
