Chapter 81
In the Hogwarts headmaster's office.

Minister Cornelius Fudge was trembling and speaking in a pent-up growl, and he stammered, his eyes still on Dumbledore.

"You-Know-Who... is back? Nonsense. Stop kidding, Dumbledore..."

"Minerva and Severus have undoubtedly told you," said Dumbledore, "that we have heard the confession of Barty Crouch Jr. who, under the influence of Veritaserum, told us how he was Smuggled out of Azkaban, how Voldemort - learned from Bertha Jorkins that he was still alive - freed him from his father and used him to get Harry. Tell you what, The plan worked. Crouch Jr. has helped Voldemort return."

Fudge still had that weird smile on his face.He glanced at Harry again before replying:

"You're ready to believe that Voldemort has returned, to a deranged murderer and a child who...he..."

Fudge shot Harry another quick glance, and Harry instantly understood what he meant.

"If you don't believe me, how about I take you to find Voldemort now? Minister!" Daoist Lingxu said sullenly, leaning on the stone pillar next to him.

"That's right! Voldemort is back, and I fought him once!" Hilbert also spoke beside him.

Fudge blushed slightly, but then a recalcitrant and stubborn look appeared on his face.

"Also I see," he said, looking at Dumbledore, "that you've been keeping certain things about the kid under wraps? He's a Parseltongue, isn't he? There's something odd about his behavior— "

"Listen to me, Connelly," said Dumbledore, taking a step towards Fudge, seeming to radiate that indescribable force once again - Harry when Dumbledore stunned young Crouch Just felt the presence of this power, "Harry is as lucid and sane as you and me. The scar on his forehead didn't confuse his mind. I believe it's only when Voldemort is lurking nearby or feels particularly tempted to kill, haha Leigh's scars hurt."

"Excuse me, Dumbledore, I've never heard of a spell scar like a bell before..."

"I saw Voldemort return with my own eyes!" Harry shouted.He struggled to get out of bed, but Mrs. Weasley held him back. "I've seen Death Eaters! I can name them! Lucius Malfoy—"

Snape moved abruptly, but as Harry looked at him, Snape's eyes turned to Fudge again.

"Malfoy was acquitted!" said Fudge, clearly offended. "A very old family—giving generously to a good cause—"

"McNeil!" Harry continued to call out the names.

"Also acquitted! Currently working at the Ministry of Magic!"

"Avery - Nott - Crabbe - Goyle -"

"You're just repeating the names of people who were judged not to be Death Eaters 13 years ago!" Fudge said angrily. "You can find those names in past trial reports! Look in the papers, Dumbledore — at the end of last year, the boy's head was full of queer tales made up—his lies got more and more outlandish, and you believed them all—the boy who could talk to snakes, Dumbledore, And you still think he's trustworthy?"

"I believe in Mr. Potter, Minister!" At this moment, the door of the principal's office slammed open.Mr. Brian Shafik, Director of Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic.

"He... no! Come back! Mr. Shafiq!"

"If you don't come back, how can you explain my son's situation!"

"It's all that guy," Minister Fudge said, pointing to Taoist Lingxu, "he knocked out your son and faked the illusion that Voldemort came back."

"Shut up! Me? Fake falsehood! Hilbert has saved my life. If he hadn't allowed me to recuperate, I would have died a long time ago! I will always repay those who are kind to me. The spring will repay you!" Taoist Lingxu roared angrily.

Harry couldn't believe his ears.He had always thought of Fudge as an affable man, who, though somewhat domineering and somewhat conceited, was essentially kind.It did not occur to him that the angry little wizard standing before him categorically refused to believe that his well-ordered, stable and comfortable world could be destroyed—that Voldemort might rise again.

"Voldemort is back," said Dumbledore again. "Fudge, if you accept this fact immediately and take the necessary measures, we may still be able to save the situation. The first and most important step is to get Azkaban out of the trap." The control of the ghost—”

"Playing the piano!" cried Fudge again. "Remove the dementors? I'll be kicked out of the office if I make this suggestion! Half of us know there's a dementor on guard in Azkaban, and we won't be able to do it until night. Get some sleep!"

"Also, as for you, Mr. Shafik, if you spread rumors and cause trouble, the Ministry of Magic will fire you!"

"How dare you!" Hilbert said as if he was about to go up and desperately, but fortunately Taoist Lingxu stopped him.

"Connelly, you are too obsessed with your official position, which makes you lose your due judgment." Dumbledore said, his voice gradually increased, and people could feel the halo of power surrounding him, His eyes glowed again. "You place too much value on the so-called pure wizard blood! You have always been like this! You don't realize that it doesn't matter where a person comes from, what matters is what kind of person he grows into! Your dementor just wiped out a very The last member of an ancient wizarding family - look at the path that man has chosen in life! I'll tell you now - just follow my advice and take some steps and you will be remembered forever by the Ministry of Magic and the wizarding world , will regard you as the bravest and greatest Minister for Magic who ever lived. If you do not act - history will remember it well: it was you who stood by and gave Voldemort a second chance to destroy what we have worked so hard to rebuild of this world!"

"Absurd," whispered Fudge, continuing to step back, "crazy..."

"If you are so obsessed with your own way, Connelly," said Dumbledore, "we will have to go our separate ways. You do as you see fit. I - I do my will."

There was nothing threatening in Dumbledore's voice, it sounded like a statement, but Fudge was furious, as if Dumbledore was approaching him with a wand raised.

Snape strode forward, past Dumbledore, raising the left sleeve of his robes as he went.He held out his arm to show Fudge, who recoiled in horror. "See," said Snape hoarsely, "see. The Dark Mark. It's not as obvious as it was an hour ago, when it was charred black, but you can still see it. Every Death Eaters all have Voldemort's brand on them. This is a way for Death Eaters to identify each other, and it is also Voldemort's secret signal to call them back to him. When he touches the mark of a Death Eater, we must immediately Apparated, appeared next to him. The mark has been more and more obvious for a year. Karkaroff's is the same. Why do you say Karkaroff is running away tonight? We both feel the mark burning. We We all know he's back. Karkaroff fears Voldemort will retaliate against him. He's betrayed many of his fellow Death Eaters, and surely no one will welcome him back among them."

Fudge stepped back from Snape again.He kept shaking his head, as if he didn't catch what Snape was saying.His eyes widened, obviously horrified by the ugly markings on Snape's arm, and he looked up at Dumbledore and whispered, "I don't know what tricks you're playing with your people, Dumbledore, But I've heard enough. I don't want to say anything more. I'll be in touch with you tomorrow, Dumbledore, to discuss the way this school is run. I must go back to the Ministry."

He stopped at the door, turned, strode across the room, and stopped by Harry's bed.

"The prize you won," he said curtly, pulling a large bag of gold coins out of his pocket and dropping them on Harry's bedside table, "a thousand galleons. There was supposed to be a ceremony, but at this moment In this case..."

He put the bowler hat over his head and walked out of the room, slamming the door behind him.

"Don't worry about him, go prepare the dinner and prepare to celebrate the success of the Triwizard Tournament! Minerva."

Professor McGonagall walked away.Hilbert stared blankly at Snape in front of him.

"You...you...you...you are, a Death Eater!"

"Son, things are not what you think!"

"No! Let me go, the person I most admire is Voldemort's lackey and minion?"

"Do you believe what I say? Hilbert, your godfather is indeed a Death Eater, and he also served Voldemort, but until the prophecy said that Voldemort would be defeated by a child born in July, Harry and Harry Neville, you know, your godfather has always been in love with Mrs. Potter, so since then he became Headmaster Dumbledore's spy in charge of spying on Voldemort, and later, Neville's parents were tortured insane, Harry's parents... ..." Taoist Lingxu stopped and looked at the eyes of everyone.Continued to say, "Sacrificed, Mrs. Potter left a love spell on Harry and bounced back the Killing Curse. Voldemort is dead. Now that he is back, your godfather still has to continue his spy mission." Taoist Lingxu After finishing all this slowly, Hilbert walked up to Snape and hugged him.Snape froze for a moment, then stretched out his arms to embrace his godson.

"Severus," said Dumbledore, turning to Snape, "you know what I'm going to tell you. If you're okay...if you're ready..."

"No problem," Snape said.

His face was paler than usual, and there was a strange light in his cold black eyes.

———Dinner———

Except for Igor Karkarov who excused himself to leave earlier, the rest of the people gathered in the auditorium.

Dumbledore wore a new silver-gray wizard robe, and still wore a tall and pointed wizard hat.

Everyone was wearing comfortable new clothes, and Daphne was sitting next to Hilbert.Holding his lover's hand tightly, Hilbert reached out and gently stroked his lover's jade hand, as if telling her that I was fine.Now Hilbert is starting to stay away from Crabbe, and Gore is starting to distance himself.

At six o'clock in the evening, Dumbledore stood up and walked to the old place to deliver his speech:

We've had the Triwizard Tournament this past year, and it's been a conspiracy from the start.From the beginning when Professor Alastor Moody was attacked, to the appearance of the names of Mr. Harry Potter and Mr. Hilbert Shafik in the Goblet of Fire, this was a complete conspiracy!Only friendship and trust can fight it to the end.Differences of habit and language are no obstacle as long as our goals are aligned and our hearts are open.What I want to tell you is that Voldemort is back.We also almost lost our classmate Hilbert Shafik.He had faced and fought against Voldemort.So is Harry Potter.But we ended up winning the final victory of the Triwizard Tournament.All the contestants are now called to the stage, including Mr. Cedric Diggory.Let's raise your Triwizard Cup together.This honor is shared by the three colleges.The prize money will be divided into five, equally distributed to each player. "

"I hope we can meet again," Fleur walked to Hilbert's side, held out a hand, and said, "I hope to find a job here and improve my English."

"Professor Lingxu told me that Fleur Delacour will reap her love here. But it's not me." Hilbert smiled and said, "Thank you, Hilbert." Krum came up and shook hands Speaking of. "Thank you, Viktor. I wish you continued winning the World Cup in the future, and I wish you happiness. I heard that Olivia-senpai is willing to date you? If you get married in the future, don't forget to treat me to a wedding wine! "

"I will."

"Hill! Don't forget, you promised me." Cedric said.

"Don't worry, Senior Digory, I will try my best to teach you."

"Harry, I wish you a happy birthday in advance. If you really don't want to go back, you can live with me in Shafik Manor."

"I think I will."

Five people stood side by side and lifted the Triwild Cup together...

The Beauxbatons and Durmstrang students were preparing to leave the next day.

Everyone was busy saying goodbye.Or leave your own address and contact information.

Fleur Delacour and her sister Gabriel Delacour hurried up the stone steps and entered the castle.Across the field behind her, Harry could see Hagrid helping Madame Maxime harness two horses.Beauxbaton's carriage was about to set off.

Viktor Krum put on the heavy coat again, and all his adoring people rushed for autographs.Uncharacteristically, Klum signed autographs for them with a smile, maybe this is the influence of Olivia, or the power of love.

Krum shrugged.He held out his hand like Fleur, and shook hands with Harry and Ron respectively.Judging from Ron's expression, he seemed to be suffering from some kind of painful inner conflict.Krum was about to walk away, when Ron suddenly said, "Can you sign me?" Krum looked surprised and relieved, and signed a piece of parchment for Ron.

The flying carriage and the huge black wooden sailboat left amid the cheers of the Hogwarts students.

The students' boxes were also prepared. As usual, the things lost before, socks, clothes, and shoes were suddenly found back.They left Hogwarts Castle in mutual goodbyes, boarded the train, and left.

Hilbert plans to run for Slytherin prefect.But first he has to get engaged to Daphne.And buy another wand.A wizard without a wand is not a good wizard.

Taoist Lingxu took out a roll of parchment from his pocket and handed it to Hilbert. After opening it, Hilbert gasped.

"Congratulations on obtaining ancient magical knowledge, including all magical knowledge, use it well!"
