Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

After that night's conversation, it still took Mr. Ward Field nearly a week to make up his mind to marry Olivia. Originally, Nitya thought that she would be busy helping Olivia prepare for the wedding in the next few days, but this was not the case, because Ward and Olivia did not plan to hold a big wedding, and would only invite a few A friend came over to hold a simple ceremony, and the two of them had almost prepared everything needed for the ceremony, so there was nothing that Nidia needed to help with.

At first, Nitya felt a little regretful, but within a few days, articles in major newspapers and periodicals diverted her attention.

She has been paying attention to various news from the outside world since the Triwizard Tournament, but apart from a brief explanation of Harry winning the championship, the newspaper never mentioned anything else. Derek's death was not mentioned at all, as if it never happened.

Just when Nydia thought there would be no more news worthy of attention in the newspapers, the names of Harry and Dumbledore began to appear frequently in various reports, but the content promoted was very different from before. , people talk about them more as a joke. They say that Dumbledore is old and confused. He is losing his mind and spreading rumors about Voldemort's return, while Harry is because of Rita Skeeter's previous report. Let everyone think that he is a boy who lies constantly to gain everyone's attention.

"Oh! Your Principal Dumbledore is no longer as popular as he used to be, isn't he." Yiwan gloated. Since that night, she would often make sarcastic remarks about Dumbledore.

"It's so ridiculous." Nydia angrily threw the newspaper she just got on the ground. "I know Fudge doesn't want to believe the news that Voldemort is back, but I didn't expect him to go to this extent. They are so Not only did he buy time for Voldemort, but he even helped Voldemort suppress the only person he feared, Dumbledore! Oh my God! Has anyone ever suspected that he might be a Death Eater? "

"He was afraid to admit that Voldemort was really back, because he couldn't deal with Voldemort himself, and he was worried that Dumbledore, who was feared by Voldemort, would take his position as Minister of Magic, so he let major reports disparage Dumbledore like this. As long as If everyone believed it, the lie would become true." Yiwan lay on Nitya's bed with a look on her face. “That’s the power of journalism.”

"News reports..." Nydia turned to look at Rita Skeeter, who was immersed in a pile of parchments. "I said, big reporter, when will I be able to see me in these newspapers?" Where’s the coverage you want?”

"I'm already trying my best to write!" Rita Skeeter looked a little crazy. Her hair, which was originally carefully taken care of, was now completely out of shape. Behind her jeweled spectacles, A pair of heavy dark circles. "The reports that were sent before could not be published entirely because of the suppression by the Ministry of Magic. They have nothing to do with my ability!"

"Aren't you always proud of writing reports from a different angle than others? Don't you like to pull the Ministry of Magic's pigtails? Aren't you good at confronting the Ministry of Magic? Aren't you keen on exclusive reports?" Nydia glared By Rita Skeeter, "Now that I'm asking you to write such a shocking exclusive report about Voldemort's resurrection, I haven't even asked you to generate much public opinion effect, so why can't you even do the most basic publishing! Have all your years of work as a reporter been in vain? Why don’t you have any reliable connections?”

Rita Skeeter felt bitter. She had already sent out more than a dozen reports on the subject of the Dark Lord's resurrection from various angles. Now it was obvious that the Ministry of Magic had interfered with the newspaper's publication. , no matter how attractive your article is, it is impossible to publish it, but the little devil in front of you still refuses to give up and forces yourself to write every day. During this period of time, I have never slept more than For five hours, she now even feels that it is a happy thing for her to be a beetle and stay in that glass jar.

"I said that as long as you successfully publish one article! As long as you successfully publish one report, I will give you your freedom!" Nitya shook her head helplessly, "But looking at the way you are not working hard now, do you think you are staying in my house? Too comfortable?”

"I told you that the problem is not with me at all!" Rita Skeeter stood up from her seat angrily, but after receiving the warning glance from Iwan, she immediately sat back down, powerless. Said, "...The Ministry of Magic won't let it be published... No matter how much I write... it's useless! I dare to go against the Ministry of Magic! But no newspaper dares!"

"Before I could, you wrote articles that offended the Ministry of Magic! I still remember those articles about the Quidditch World Cup! Why were those published?" Nydia walked up to Rita Skeeter. , looked at the report she was writing now, and then shook her head, "I think businessmen are all profit-seeking. As long as you can help him attract enough readers and generate enough profits, he won't mind going. It offends some people. In the final analysis, your article is not good enough.”

Rita Skeeter has always been proud of her career achievements. Anyone who dares to question her article will definitely let that person have a taste of the power of her article, but now she is trapped by such a little girl. Here, if it weren't for the weird woman next to her, how could she not be her opponent?

"I will try my best to write an article that satisfies you..." Rita Skeeter said through gritted teeth.

Nitya nodded with satisfaction, "It is said that when people do things for themselves, rewards and punishments need to coexist. Giving you freedom is the reward I give you, but at present, it seems that rewards alone are not enough to motivate you. Maybe there will be some more The punishment of punishment will make you more likely to develop your potential." Nidia thought for a while and then said, "In order to provide you with enough food during this period, my appetite has aroused Olivia's appetite. Note, continuing like this is not an option, so I decided that if your article is not published for one day, I will gradually reduce your food as a punishment! "What do you think?"

"You...! You are simply...!"

Rita Skeeter was about to curse Nitya, but Iwan felt someone walking towards their room, so she immediately sealed Rita Skeeter's mouth so that she could not make a sound. Sure enough, not long after, there was a knock on the door.

"Nidia! Are you there?" Brace knocked on Nidia's door and asked loudly.

"What's the matter?" Nidia walked to the door, but did not open it. No one in the family knew about the existence of Iwan and Rita Skeeter.

"Mr. Malfoy is here and wants you to go downstairs." Blaise wanted to listen to the sounds in Nydia's room. He had always been curious about what Nydia was doing when she locked herself in the room for a long time. , several times he vaguely heard the voice of more than one person coming from her room.

Lucius Malfoy is here! It's still some time before the wedding, is he just here for a visit? Nydia was shocked, would Draco also come here?

"You go first! I'll be right away!"

After Nidia finished speaking to Brace, she immediately walked to the mirror and combed her hair again, and then carefully checked whether her outfit for today was suitable. Yiwan who was standing next to her showed a look of disgust at her behavior. .

"Reporter, I hope to see your latest report when I come back! Come on for your freedom and food!" After saying that, Nidia walked out of the room happily. She knew that the Ministry of Magic was not at all Maybe she had deliberately forced Rita Skeeter to do such useless work when the news about Voldemort's resurrection was published. Since she likes to write articles and spread rumors so much, she will let her write as much as she can this time.

She trotted all the way towards the living room on the first floor. Her heart was beating hard. She felt excited and nervous at the thought of possibly seeing Draco. But unfortunately, when she arrived at the living room, she found that... There was only one Mr. Lucius Malfoy. His father and Olivia were sitting on the sofa nearby. The expressions of the three of them were a little solemn.

"Did something happen?" The expressions of the three of them gave Nidia a bad feeling.

Lucius Malfoy looked at Nydia, sighed feebly and said, "He wants to see you."
