I, Constantine, Chief Exorcist of Hogwarts

Chapter 75: Day of Fear in the British Wizarding World, Gringotts Goblin: Cornelius Fudge, you loser!

“This is awesome John, can I really use this broom?”

“My God, the mahogany wooden handle, and the anti-slip paint on it… Merlin, is this the Nimbus 2000 that sells for 1,400 Galleons? So handsome!”

“Harry, I think we will definitely be the champions of this Quidditch match now.……”

Ron was still talking to himself. At this moment, the only thing in his world was the nimbus in front of him…

However.

Just when he was stroking the flying broom in front of him excitedly and chattering incessantly, something suddenly fell from his head and hit him lightly on the head.

“Ouch, what is this?”

Ron came back to his senses and looked at the [Daily Prophet] that was delivered to him during dinner. As his head gradually came to his senses, he suddenly thought of the time during the day when he seemed to have delivered it just once.

But he suddenly discovered that it was originally The noisy Hogwarts auditorium restaurant suddenly became silent.

Almost everyone was holding a copy of the [Daily Prophet] like his at the moment, and their faces were either pale, or panicked. He clenched his fingers in disbelief.

Looking at the content above, he seemed to have stopped breathing at this moment. Before he could see the title clearly,

Ron was instantly frightened by the picture of a miserable corpse. He was in poor health.

It was a typical family of four

, plus two children who looked less than three years old.

However, their death situation at this moment was so miserable that it was almost triggering. The little wizard’s nightmare at night.

The head and arms seemed to be torn off by something, and blood was sprayed everywhere.

Finally, the body was deliberately placed in a weird and terrifying posture..

A pair of torn arm bone spurs were inserted into the blood-soaked floor, propping up the head with white eyes and a face full of pain and fear, and Ron saw it at a glance, above the parents. Between his eyebrows, there were two broken wands, and on the other side of the photo, a line of words written in blood made Ron’s pupils shrink suddenly.

“Everyone in the Ministry of Magic must die! Especially you, Cornelius Fudge!”

Ministry of Magic…

The color on Ron’s face instantly faded. The beautiful mood that he was so happy about because of Nimbus 2000 also disappeared at this moment.

All that was left was deep fear and fear. His parents’ worries.

You know, his father, Arthur Weasley, is a staff member of the Ministry of Magic.

“【Urgent additional issue of the Daily Prophet]: There have been multiple attacks on the families of Ministry of Magic officials in Devon. So far, six families with people working in the Ministry of Magic have been exterminated, with a total of 28 deaths.”

“At present, the Ministry of Magic has declared a state of emergency management. Wizards are advised not to visit the house for non-essential matters as much as possible.”

Above the newspaper, at the door of the Minister of Magic’s office, Cornelius Fudge, sweating profusely and looking ugly, explained over and over again to the surrounding reporters and staff of the Ministry of Magic.

“There was no so-called monster attack, it was the shameless Death Eater remnants who retaliated against us! They are not completely wiped out yet…I repeat, it is not a monster attack!”

“Mr. Minister, according to those who attacked nearby Muggles, in addition to hearing the screams of the families being attacked that day, they also heard what sounded like monsters roaring.”

“rumor! That was the result of those Death Eaters deliberately casting the Confusion Curse.……”

John took a deep breath, and the hand holding the newspaper was slightly clenched at the moment.

The situation exceeded his expectations, and the Ministry of Magic was even more incompetent than he expected.

“John……”

Feeling Miss Know-It-All’s little hands trembling slightly with fear, John sighed and hugged her into his arms.

As Harry looked at the newspaper in his hand, his eyes couldn’t help but look in the direction of the Slytherin table.

“John……”

“Don’t make any noise! Lucius and the others should have done it.”

John spoke calmly, signaling Harry to calm down. At this moment, his eyes also noticed Draco, whose face was as pale as paper. He was sitting at the Slytherin table and his body was trembling. Obviously, he realized what happened. It wasn’t just Harry.

As Draco, who had personally experienced two demon attacks and had seen his father Lucius at that time, he could tell at a glance what the tragedies reported in the newspapers were.

How did it happen?

Harry noticed the”them” in John’s words but looked at the situation of the people around him and didn’t know how to ask.

John looked in the direction of Professor Dumbledore and the others. At this time, Dumbledore Lido also happened to look at him.

With a glance, John immediately understood the meaning and went to his office.

“John, me, my parents, are they going to be okay… Ginny is still at home.”

Ron, who was obviously a little confused because of panic, grabbed John’s arm, and there were even a few tears in his eyes.

John frowned slightly

“Don’t worry, basically all the families in the Ministry of Magic who have had trouble here have said that they either have Aurors in their families, or they work in important departments such as the Department of Legal Enforcement. Mr. Weasley……”

“Our home is in Devon!”

Ron’s anxious shout made John’s eyes froze.

He recalled carefully that the Burrow where the Weasley family lived was located in the village of Audley St. Catchpole, and the location of this village, It seemed that they were really in Devon.

The Weasley twins also looked worried at this moment.

“Don’t worry, since the Ministry of Magic has dispatched an Auror team, they will be able to recapture those Death Eaters soon.”

Ron, Fred, George:”……”

The three of them looked at each other as if they were fools. Are you because you want to work in the Ministry of Magic so much that you believe too much in the nonsense those guys say?

John couldn’t help but shook his head.

With the urinary nature of that good-for-nothing Fudge, he could even blame the Death Eaters for things that were obviously caused by evil spirits. That only meant one thing.

The so-called Death Eaters are compared to Lucius and a bunch of other evil spirits who escaped from the Ministry of Magic.

Not worth mentioning at all.

A sudden piece of bad news brought the originally lively Hogwarts dinner to a freezing point.

Hogwarts is one of the best magic schools in the British wizarding world, and even in the entire Europe. It includes almost all the young wizards from the vast majority of wizarding families in the British wizarding world.

Among them, there are quite a few people like Ron who have relatives working in the Ministry of Magic.

After a while, there were some little wizards on the scene who shed tears of worry and fear.

John noticed Dumbledore’s signaling eyes and whispered comfort to Miss Know-It-All and Ron, asking them to follow the prefect back to their respective dormitories to have an early rest.

He quickly walked through the small door on one side and followed Dumbledore towards the office.

“Professor, since Fudge has even used the Death Eaters as a shield, he will definitely send the largest force next to secretly deal with all evil spirits like Lucius and the others.”

“but……”

John paused slightly.

With a cold look on his face, he shook his head:”I’m afraid they won’t be the opponent of these evil spirits today!”

In the office, Dumbledore let out a long sigh.

“Lucius Malfoy, it seems that just as you said, the sanity of human beings has been eaten away… Constantine, innocent people have been killed, we must take action to deal with this matter!”

John nodded, that’s exactly what he meant.

He originally gave the old guy Cornelius Fudge a blackmail-like offer. On the one hand, he wanted to disgust the other party, but on the other hand, he simply didn’t want to give it. The old man wiped his ass.

I thought that the other party never came to see me, so he must have some powerful help in the field of exorcism.

Unexpectedly… this is really a stupid thing that this useless minister can do..

However, John Jingua has promised that things will never be solved as easily as he imagined.

“Professor, since Cornelius Fudge has publicly said that these tragedies were caused by Death Eaters, even if we come to him now and ask for help, I am afraid he will not accept this kind of help.”

“After all…I am afraid that the eyes of the entire British wizarding community are now fixed on him. Our appearance will only instantly defeat his lie.”

When Dumbledore heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Then he opened his mouth and wanted to argue. The last words he spoke turned into a sad sigh.

He shook his head slightly.

“He is obviously always so scrupulous, but he is always able to covet some completely unrealistic interests when conditions do not allow it.……”

John hit the nail on the head and directly expressed his evaluation of Cornelius Fudge.

“Cowardly and greedy.”

The British wizarding world has become panicked because of this [Daily Prophet] report.

Especially in Devon, which has the most cases of wizard family exterminations. Here, every family with someone working in the Ministry of Magic, Everyone has entered a tense situation, and the Burrow where the Weasley family is currently is in a similar tense situation.

“Honey, I, I think it’s better to send Ginny to Lovegood’s house. Lovegood is not an employee of the Ministry of Magic.……”

Molly Weasley held her wand nervously, even though she was at home at the moment.

The doors and windows were closed, and Mr. Weasley had set many hidden traps from the Muggle world outside in the vegetable garden and around the fence.

But looking at her only daughter at this moment, Molly Weasley still made her proposal

“No! I do not go! Our home is not far from Luna’s house. Even if those crazy people come to the door, they can guess that I am over there. I would rather be with you!”

Ginny Weasley refused without hesitation.

After hearing this, Mrs. Weasley wanted to say something else, but suddenly there were bursts of sharp sirens outside.

“Woohoo!”

The sensor alarm from the Muggle world suddenly sounded as a figure appeared at the edge of the Burrow.

Amidst the sharp and piercing alarm sound, Arthur Weasley instantly raised his wand. He rushed out

“I don’t care who you are, get out of here right away! Stay away from my home!”

“Wait, wait, don’t be impulsive Arthur, it’s me!”

The man looked at the magic light emitting from the tip of Mr. Weasley’s wand, and hurriedly took off the hat on his head.

After seeing the person clearly, Arthur gradually relaxed a little.

This man He knew him, he also worked in the Ministry of Magic, and he was also a member of the Auror Action Team.

“Wade, what are you doing here?”

“The Minister ordered each of us to go to a Ministry of Magic family in Devon and protect them for a period of time… Here are my credentials.”

In extraordinary times, even a loser like Fudge can be considered carefully prepared in some arrangements.

But it is obvious that this so-called arrangement cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

And…

Not everyone will buy his account. Although it is late at night in Gringotts, the core management area, there are still a large number of goblins holding wands, as well as wizards who are obviously affiliated with the Ministry of Magic, waiting here nervously.

“Cornelius Fudge, what exactly do you mean? Make me wait? What kind of explanation is this?!”

The short and ugly person in charge of Gringotts, at this moment, exploded with aura as if he wanted to eat the fat man in front of him on the spot. His fierce look scared Cornelius Fudge and he couldn’t help but take two steps back.

“Do you know how much Gringotts has lost in just three or four days?”

“7w gold galleons!”

“Do you know how many of our staff members died in the vault for no apparent reason? 17!”

“Some committed suicide by slitting their throats for no apparent reason, some choked themselves to death by swallowing gold coins like crazy, and some simply poured oil from lamps on themselves and burned themselves alive!”

“Because of these damn things, Gringotts has stopped doing business for four days in a row, and all we have done is to temporarily hide the news according to what you, Cornelius Fudge, said!”

Fudge raised his head with difficulty to prevent his face from being sprayed by the other party’s spit that had a peculiar smell.

However, this seemingly arrogant attitude completely ignited the passion of the goblin in front of him. anger

“If you can’t solve the trouble here for us, please get out of Gringotts immediately. We will personally look for the entire wizarding world to find someone who can solve the problem here!”

“Get out!”

Cornelly Fudge’s expression suddenly changed.

“Mr. Phyllis, don’t be so angry. I didn’t mean to offend you. We are already investigating carefully, but we need time. I……”

“time is money! Cornelius Fudge, you are truly the most useless Minister of Magic I have ever seen. Don’t let me say this again. Take your people and get out of Gringotts immediately!”

“You trash have already wasted our precious four days, and I have no intention of spending even one second of our fifth day on you trash!”

“roll!”

Since the goblin clan was defeated in the war between human wizards, Gringotts can almost be said to be the last territory of the goblin clan’s business.

It can be said that the goblin clan that lost Gringotts is almost the same as the goblin clan that perished. What a difference.

Everyone angrily pointed their wands at the surrounding Ministry of Magic Aurors, including Cornelius Fudge, the minister known as Phyllis. The person in charge of the clan, who already looked ugly, was even more gloomy and ugly at the moment because of Cornelius Fudge’s incompetence.

He raised his hand in anger at an assistant beside him.

“Immediately, write a formal invitation letter in the name of Gringotts to Professor Dumbledore. Since he respects that human exorcist boy so much, maybe only he can solve our problems here.”

Early morning at Hogwarts.

When a figure reappeared in the dining room of Hogwarts, John couldn’t help but narrowed his eyes.���

Quirrell is back!

And judging from the appearance of the other party, everything seems to be going smoothly.

This had to make John secretly wary of the increasingly restless Mr. Dark Lord.

If the other party was just wandering around Hogwarts, coveting the insignificant Philosopher’s Stone, John could still play with him depending on his mood.

But now, it seems that the other party obviously doesn’t want to continue playing.

“What are you looking at? Professor Quirrell What’s wrong with him?”
