The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Old Barty was indeed a former top official of the Ministry of Magic. The expression of surprise and uncertainty only appeared on his face for a short time before it was quickly restrained and turned into a look of expressionless and silent expression.

This made Link a little regretful.

He said these words not entirely to ridicule Old Barty, but also to test Old Barty's reaction and verify whether Old Barty rescued Little Barty.

This is an ability derived from Link's mastery of the Legilimency Spell, which is somewhat similar to micro-expression science in the Muggle world.

It's a pity that old Batty is too cunning and cunning, and he failed to see anything substantial.

"What are you all doing here? Crouch, I didn't ask you to bring the Auror here just to wrong the good!"

Just when the scene became more and more out of control with Old Barty's silence, Fudge's voice suddenly sounded from outside the crowd.

With a serious look on his face, he squeezed into the crowd with more Aurors, followed by Mrs. Foley, Emily, and old Kled, whom Link had not seen for a long time.

Emily didn't care about other things and left the main force. She rushed to Link's side anxiously and touched and inspected Link's body.

Finally seeing that Link was not injured, he hugged Link tightly.

By the way, she squeezed Hermione seemingly unintentionally, and Hermione was so angry that she stamped her feet.

On the other side, Mrs. Foley and Old Creed followed Fudge towards Old Barty.

"Mr. Minister, it's too early to say that he is kind now, right? You know, he's still lying there..."

"What does this have to do with you?"

When Old Barty saw Fudge, he quickly wanted to refute.

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Fudge.

Fudge's eyes were cold and his expression was filled with anger. He stared closely at Old Barty who seemed to want to say something else and said again:

"Don't forget that you are just the director of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department now. It is not your job to appease and control the riots in the camp! What you have to do now is to quickly go to the foreign guest camp to appease those foreigners! Especially the Bulgarian Minister of Magic , that guy has threatened to issue a diplomatic statement condemning our security management at the Quidditch World Cup when he returns! Go!"

Being taught such a lesson by Fudge in public, Old Barty's face turned blue and purple, very embarrassed.

If it hadn't been for Barty Jr., he would have been the most promising person to become the Minister of Magic. At that time, Fudge was just a little shrimp that he could easily crush to death.

It's a pity that things have changed now, and the guy who could only bow before him in the past has now become the most powerful person in the wizarding country.

Gritting his teeth, Old Batty finally loosened his clenched fists and turned around to walk towards the foreign guest camp area.

Fudge was right about one thing, appeasing the foreign guests was the most important thing for him to do now.

If the Bulgarian minister's statement of condemnation is really to be issued, the final responsibility will still be placed on him, the director of the International Magical Exchange and Cooperation Department.

"The Foley family will never forget what happened today. Mr. Crouch, you'd better not go out in the near future. It would be bad if something unexpected happens."

Mrs. Foley's cold voice came out before Old Barty had gone very far.

Next to her, Old Klei was also laughing strangely. His remaining eye was staring at Old Barty's back. There was no smile in his eyes, but only cruelty and malice.

Old Barty's fists that had been loosened were clenched again, but his steps were a little faster.

Now that things have come to a point, he naturally knows Link's identity.

What happened today is just a small matter, and it should have ended there.

But Mrs. Foley didn't seem to want to let Old Barty go so simply.

You must know that old Barty also carried out a carve-up operation against the Foley family when he was purging Death Eaters. Although he failed in the end, it also caused Mrs. Foley to suffer a lot of injustice.

This feud is very big.

I didn't mention it before because I didn't find an excuse. I think the Foley family will definitely launch revenge actions based on this incident, and this revenge will be very cruel. This has happened since Mrs. Foley brought the old Kled from Knockturn Alley. You can tell.

Thinking of this, Old Batty's expression became even more gloomy in the darkness.

In the crowd on the other side, Fudge seemed to have not heard Mrs. Foley's previous threatening words at all. He turned around with a smile on his face and said to Link:

"Link, I've heard the camp administrator tell you what happened. You are indeed a young talent from our country. You stepped forward in times of crisis. What a great job! So be it! I've arranged for a therapist. , you will go check your body in a while, and by the way, the director of the Auror Office will also ask you for some information about tonight's events, what do you think?"

As soon as Fudge said this, Cedric, Harry and others around him breathed a sigh of relief.

Link himself also had a smile on his face.

Fudge's speaking skills were very high, and he directly assigned the nature of what he did tonight as a heroic act. There must be Mrs. Foley's operation in it.

Link glanced at Mrs. Foley and saw her nodding inconspicuously, so he said to Fudge:

"Thank you very much, Minister Fudge."

"Yes! Someone, please take Mr. Foley to the temporary treatment point first."

Following Fudge's order, several Aurors soon came out and took Link to a huge white tent not far from the camp.

There are densely packed single beds here, with many wounded people already lying on them. Therapists in white robes are busy shuttling between the beds, extremely busy.

Under the arrangement of the Auror, a square-faced man in the treatment room put down his work very unhappily, first examined Link, and then returned to his post extremely unhappy.

Before leaving, he gave Link and the Aurors a blank look and said:

"Nothing happened! Damn rich people!"

Under the hateful eyes of the surrounding patients, the Aurors took Link out of the tent as if they were fleeing, and went to the Auror's temporary command post.

This is the highlight of today.

Although Fudge's intention was obvious, he just wanted Link to go through the motions.

But Scrimgeour, the head of the Auror Office, apparently didn't think so.

Not only did he meet Link in person, he also asked Link a lot about the riots tonight, and his words were quite sharp.

You must know that the Mark of Darkness reappeared tonight, which raised the seriousness of tonight's riot to several levels.

The Aurors wouldn't stop until they got to the bottom of everything.

Fortunately, Link is a level 5 master of Occlumency, and Old Kled stayed with Link throughout the whole process on the grounds that Link was still underage and needed a guardian to accompany him during the interrogation. He completely ignored Scrimgeour's warning and would interrupt like this from time to time. One or two sentences, interrupting the atmosphere and rhythm of Scrimgeour's interrogation.

With the help of Old Kled, Link finally managed to fool Scrimgeour, the old lion.

When Link walked out of the Auror's temporary command post, the sky outside was already bright.

"Link, go back by yourself, I have more important tasks to do. Haha! It's time for that old guy Crouch to pay the price for what he did back then!"

Old Kled sent Link to the Foley family camp, then said these words, grinned, snapped his fingers, and disappeared.

Under Old Crane's command, there is a large group of monster hunters who make a living from the business of magical animals. These guys licking blood on the tip of their knives are all very powerful. It is simply not possible to take advantage of Old Barty, a washed-up Ministry of Magic official. What a difficult thing.

So there is no need for Link to worry about the situation there. What Link should really worry about is how to explain to Mrs. Foley what he did last night when he returns.

Standing blankly outside the tent, Link suddenly didn't dare to go in.

Mrs. Foley must have been out of her mind last night to put herself in danger without saying a word.

But it was hard for Link to tell Mrs. Foley the real reason why he went out last night.

It would be better if she just scolded Link, but if she just silently shed tears of sadness, that would be the end of it.

What Link is least good at is facing this kind of situation.

Taking a deep breath, Link finally gritted his teeth and entered the tent.

However, the scene inside the tent made Link stunned.

I saw five women sitting scattered in the front hall of the tent, which was a perfect replica of the living room of Forlì Castle.

Among them, Mrs. Foley and Emily sat on the sofa closest to the fireplace. Opposite them sat a very strong woman wearing a fancy dress and a huge sapphire pendant around her neck.

Link swore that this was definitely the tallest and strongest woman he had ever seen. She was almost as tall as him when she was sitting. He had only seen this kind of figure on Hagrid.

Next to the giantess, there were two silver-haired girls, one big and one small. They were both wearing sky-blue dresses. They looked very beautiful and similar, and they seemed to be sisters.

These five women were sitting together and chatting with smiles on their faces, looking extremely happy.

Link's arrival interrupted the tea party, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on him.

The youngest silver-haired girl inside was even more excited, and she jumped off the sofa and ran towards Link.

"father!"

The silver-haired girl shouted something like this in a crisp voice, and then she hugged Link's waist tightly with both hands.

Looking down at the girl who was as tall as his belly, Link's muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched a few times.

He recognized that this was the little girl he saved in the forest last night.

When he looked up again, he saw that Emily and Mrs. Foley were looking at him with complicated eyes, as if they were looking at scum.

"I'm not! I didn't! You got the wrong person!"

Link shuddered and immediately said to the little girl seriously.

"I didn't admit my mistake, Dad! You are the Phantom Knight, and I still remember the smell of you!"

The little girl immediately pouted and retorted. After speaking, she sniffed Link twice and nodded affirmatively.

This moment made Link a little confused.

"Stop messing around Gabri, come back quickly! Your father is still in France. This is your brother Link."

The giantess on the sofa said seriously with a straight face, and then the large silver-haired girl next to her quickly stepped forward and took Gabri, who wanted to continue to say something, off Link's waist and carried her back to the sofa.

"cough!"

Mrs. Foley also coughed at the right time and stood up and introduced, "Link, this is my best friend, Ms. Maxime. She is the principal of Beauxbatons School of Magic in France."

The giantess stood up from the sofa very gracefully, nodded towards Link and said:

"It's nice to meet you, little Link. Your mother always told me about you."

"Welcome, Ms. Maxim."

After Link returned the gift politely, Mrs. Foley introduced again:

"These two are Fleur Delacour and Gabrielle Delacour. This time they came to watch the game with Ms. Maxime."

After saying this, Link felt a gust of fragrant wind blowing over him. The large silver-haired girl ran up to Link, hugged him and gave him a hug.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Foley! Thank you for saving Gabrielle last night. If it weren't for you, I really can't imagine what kind of cruel treatment Gabrielle would have suffered! I am just such a sister! In addition, Please forgive Gabri’s nonsense, her temper is a bit too naughty.”

Fleur's voice was choked and hoarse, obviously she cried a lot last night.

"Little things, just small things."

Link said somewhat perfunctorily.

It's not a perfunctory thing. The hibiscus looks like a hibiscus from a distant mountain. It's lustful but not charming. It looked fine from a distance before, but now that it's up close, Link's breathing becomes faster involuntarily.

Not to mention that Fleur is still well developed and has an excellent figure. When Link was hit like this, he felt that his chest was full of things, and even the heart inside was injured internally. It was pounding as if it was hit by the waves. .

'So fierce' magic!

Link sighed in his mind. Fleur was also a character who had appeared in the original work. She was not very beautiful in the original movie according to Link's aesthetics. Who would have expected that she would be so stunning when he saw her now? It seems like this is what she should be. It is Fleur in the original novel.

"Cough cough!"

After coughing twice, Link finally forced himself to retract his hand that was already reaching for Furong's waist, and at the same time broke out of Furong's arms.

She couldn't hold her anymore, and Emily had already started to roll her eyes. It was hard to coax Emily if she was really angry.

"Phantom Knight, Gabrielle wants a hug too!"

A clear child's voice sounded in Link's ears. Link looked down and sure enough, he saw Gabrielle running to his side at some point and raising her arms, waiting for him to hug her.

The little girl with her chest touching her back had nothing to hug. Besides, because of this guy, he had lost his master just now. Link curled his lips and pretended not to hear.

"Hey! Gabriel is so cute and you don't even hug her! You are indeed the Phantom Knight! I want..."

Before Gabrielle finished speaking, Fleur covered her mouth, smiled awkwardly at Link and said:

"Mr. Foley, don't worry, Gabrielle has just heard too many fairy tales."

"I don't!" Gabrielle broke away from Fleur's hand and shouted, "Grandma will not lie to me! Every beautiful girl will have a Phantom Knight! They will eventually fall in love with the beautiful girl they protect and get married. Give birth to a son and stay together for life! Link is my Phantom Knight!"
