The Soul of Hogwarts Across Worlds

Chapter 193 Compromise
The next morning, in the Hogwarts auditorium, the professors arrived one after another.

The actions of the Ministry of Magic were as expected by Kingsley.

Aurors, and even Rufus Scrimgeour himself, had arrived at Hogwarts last night.

The argument between Dumbledore and the new Minister of Magic lasted until midnight.

The two sides do not give in to each other.

Scrimgeour only gave Dumbledore two options, either to accept the Auror's comprehensive surveillance of Hogwarts, or to allow the dementors to enter the castle and conduct a thorough investigation.

It was naturally impossible for Dumbledore to agree to such a request, so the argument was deadlocked.It wasn't until late at night that the argument finally came to a conclusion.

"What's the matter?" Ron, who got up from the dormitory just now, looked at the battle in the auditorium blankly.

Gryffindor only had one Transfiguration class in the morning, and the class didn't start until nine o'clock, so Ron and the others would slowly arrive at the auditorium that came at this time.

"Harry." Hermione waved her hand, guiding Harry and Ron.After the two sat down, they continued, "Who knows?"

"This is for you." She said, and handed Harry a form: "The new class schedule for this semester."

"I'm not interested in our class schedule at all, I just want to know, what happened?" Ron looked sullen.It seems that I am still worried about adding classes.

"The professors seem a little unhappy." Harry was keenly aware that the atmosphere on the seemingly quiet rostrum seemed a bit dignified, and the faces of all the professors seemed to be unhappy.

"If you notice that there are suddenly a lot of strange wizards in Hogwarts today, you will understand why the professors are angry." Melda said casually.

Amidst the chattering and guessing among the young wizards, some of the professors on the rostrum finally opened their mouths.

It's Professor McGonagall.

She glanced at the students present, and then said: "In view of the current dangers in the magical world, the Ministry of Magic will strengthen inspections within the academy today to ensure the safety of the academy, and another batch of dementors will arrive in Hoag soon Woz, patrol around the school.

All students are forbidden to go out recently, and Hogsmeade village is also forbidden to go. "

This was the result of Dumbledore's argument with the Ministry of Magic last night, and both parties made a compromise.No one has achieved their expected goals.

In fact, Dumbledore didn't have much dislike for Scrimgeour. On the other hand, he even admired the new Minister of Magic. He dared to do things and was not afraid of trouble. He was much better than the conservative Fudge. too much.

But appreciation is all appreciation, the Minister of Magic's problem is still very huge.

He seemed to value the stability of the wizarding world more than the little wizards at Hogwarts.Even to the bottom of unscrupulous.Of course, this has something to do with his usual Auror style, after all, he can't be soft-hearted when dealing with dark wizards.

In addition, with the lessons learned from New York, the ministries of magic of various countries are now strengthening their control over the magical society.Combining these reasons, Scrimgeour does not seem to be doing anything out of the ordinary.

But this runs counter to Dumbledore's teaching philosophy.

Old Dengtou has always followed the Ministry of Magic's ownership of the Ministry of Magic.Hogwarts belongs to Hogwarts.This parallel management model.

He didn't want to see those officials from the Ministry of Magic sticking their hands into Hogwarts.

This is not to say that Dumbledore completely regards Hogwarts as his own private territory and refuses to be touched by others.

Rather, he wanted his students to be at the academy and try not to get involved in the dirty politics of the Ministry of Magic.

Students deserve a better future than being tied down by the Ministry of Magic.

But this time, he backed down.For so many years, this is the first time that an Auror has directly entered Hogwarts, and the power of the Ministry of Magic has directly affected the school.

The reasons are very complicated.It was pressure from various forces that forced the old headmaster to finally give in.

After Professor McGonagall announced the end, she got up and left the auditorium, followed by several other professors.

It seems that the professors gathered in the auditorium early in the morning is a little unclear.
But in fact, they are a position on the surface and an invisible protest.

Had a quick breakfast.

Melda and Harry got up and went to the Transfiguration classroom.

Along the way, the little wizards passing by had their own worries.

But those little wizards were all seniors, and Harry Melda and the others were only in their second year, so they couldn't go to Hogsmeade.

So I didn't pay much attention to Professor McGonagall's ban.

However, they accidentally ran into an annoying acquaintance in the corridor aisle.

"Lucius Malfoy?"

As his father's deadly enemy, Ron recognized the guy at a glance.

At this time, Lucius was in high spirits, looking like a villain who had succeeded in trickery, and beside him was a short elf with bat-like ears following at his feet.

That's Dobby.

"Why are they here?" Ron stared at Lucius in disgust, his displeasure came over his face.

"It must be to disgust the principal, so it's guesswork?" Melda also likes Lucius, this guy is really annoying.

If only Draco was just a spoiled kid.

Then Lucius is pure sinister villain.

The means of doing things are low, and the attitude is bad, even in the pure blood family, it is rare.

"I remember that the Malfoy family seems to be one of the members of the school board, hehe. Then there is no need to guess, this guy must have come to threaten the principal."

Although there was absolutely no evidence for Melda's statement, both Harry and Hermione agreed with his words.

After all, Lucius, when has he ever done something good?
"Hiss, I suddenly thought of an idea. Come here, Harry."

Speaking of which, because Harry moved out of his aunt's house early this year, and the Chamber of Secrets ended too early, Harry probably doesn't know Dobby now.

But that didn't matter, as long as Dobby knew Harry.

As she said that, Melda quickly took out a notebook from the cloth bag in her pocket.

Yes, it was Tom Riddle's notebook that had a huge gap blown out by Xia Ti.

The old headmaster just glanced at this thing, but didn't take it away, it was always on Melda.

This time it was really a coincidence.

"Harry, you're like this...you're like this." While telling Harry the plan, Melda took out a glove from her pocket and put it in the notebook.

"."

"What? This notebook was secretly given to Ginny by Lucius?" Harry looked at Melda in shock. He had no idea that Ginny was still involved in the Chamber of Secrets this year.

It wasn't until Melda mentioned it that he realized that Ginny's appearance was indeed a bit strange in those days.

"No, Melda, how do you know?"

Harry remembered that Melda was not present at the press conference at the Lihen Bookstore. Lucius’ little tricks were right under his nose, and he didn’t even notice. Melda was not present. How did he know? ?
"Why are you talking so much? Are you still going?" Naturally, Melda couldn't say that he had read the original book, so he could only vaguely say, "Dumbledore told me, because Ginny didn't participate in the deep, so she The problem was directly exposed, and I didn’t tell you.”

"Oh!" Harry said suddenly.

"Hey, what are you two talking about? What's wrong with Ginny?" Ron on the side couldn't understand what the two of them were saying at all. He just heard his sister's name and asked subconsciously.

"I'll explain later, Harry hastened to follow, Lucius is going to go far away." Seeing that Lucius' figure had gradually faded away, Melda hurriedly urged.

"Ok!"
