This Hogwarts is not normal

Diverting attention is a common tactic used by the British Ministry of Magic. Although it is a bit self-deceptive, the problems that need to be faced still need to be faced.

Fudge sat back and whispered a name, "Peter Pettigrew..."

The senior executives fell silent again.

If this heinous criminal had not been rescued from the hospital in the first place, the Ministry of Magic would not have had to find another criminal to take his place in Azkaban.

If there hadn’t been a replacement, he wouldn’t have been rescued, and if there hadn’t been a rescue, the attack last night wouldn’t have happened.

So in the final analysis, all the faults are actually caused by the Ministry of Magic.

If the truth of the matter is uncovered, the current leadership team will all have to step down at the speed of light.

In order to save their asses, the Ministry of Magic had to hide the truth.

There are three Death Eaters in total, two of whom have confirmed their identities, and only one can be made public.

Fudge looked at the silent Scrimgeour and said, "Rufus, how is the investigation going at the gym? Have you found out who they kidnapped?"

Scrimgeour shook his head. "Mr. Minister, we have not found any missing staff members yet."

"I see..." Fudge tapped the table with his fingers, "Pay close attention to the recent missing persons across the country, especially those who have disappeared in the past two or three days."

The Death Eaters went to great lengths to kidnap people to the stadium. Regardless of their purpose, the missing people must be very important to them.

If we can find out who he is, maybe we can follow the clues and find their whereabouts.

As for the explanation to the outside world...

There were no clues and no good countermeasures to come up with, so we could only quickly send someone to take over and divert attention.

noon,

Vincent got up and went downstairs, and found that his friends and adults were looking at him in a very strange way.

"This is what you are doing?"

Fred and George grinned and pulled out a newspaper.

"Dude, did you make some unspeakable deal with Fudge?"

Vincent was even more confused. He took the newspaper blankly and said, "Deal? What deal?"

George pointed at the newspaper in his hand and said, "Dude, stop pretending."

Fred pointed at the dynamic photo that took up an entire page of the newspaper. "That's right. Fudge, the old fox, never does business at a loss. You must have made a shady deal."

From something that could not be told to something that could not be seen in public, Vincent was completely confused.

He picked up the newspaper with one hand.

This is the official version of the Daily Prophet published by the Ministry of Magic after it was taken over by the Ministry of Magic.

The photo that took up the entire page was of him, and it was him in the magic projection who was quickly extinguishing the fierce fire.

"Well?"

The title of the article is "Death Eaters, if you have the guts, come out and fight me one on one. I will fight a group of you alone!"

"Uh……"

Vincent was dumbfounded.

The smell is so strong, it seems familiar.

Rita was recruited?

Damn Ministry of Magic, dare to touch his people? !

No, that's not right. Rita still has the leverage in her hand, she doesn't have the courage to betray.

Vincent glanced at the signature at the bottom of the article.

Maggie Weston?

It's ok if it's not Rita. It's probably just a copycat writing style to attract attention.

By the time he patiently read the entire report, the doubts in his heart became deeper than before.

"In recognition of Mr. Vincent Wayne's heroic performance in fighting the Death Eaters in the early hours of last night, the Ministry of Magic will make an exception and award him an Order of Merlin, First Class..."

Without going through the cumbersome nomination and review process, can he be awarded directly?

Although the value of the Order of Merlin is decreasing year by year, it is a first-class medal that can only be awarded for making great contributions in the field of magic or showing extraordinary courage.

He beat up the Death Eaters and let them escape. And he still managed to get it?

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. The Ministry of Magic must be covering up something.

Vincent put down the newspaper and said, "Fuck, we've been tricked again!"

The children stared at each other blankly, while the adults looked as if they were thinking about something.

The camp was attacked and the Dark Mark reappeared. The British Ministry of Magic is facing unprecedented challenges.

They can still use their usual tough measures to suppress the situation domestically, but it is not their turn to intervene abroad.

In this situation, putting up a shield can indeed divert attention, but in the final analysis it is just a helpless move to delay time.

Why delay? It's because the Ministry of Magic led by Fudge is too incompetent and can't even give a simple explanation.

Instead of taking proactive measures to deal with the situation, the first thing they think of is to cover it up. If these bastards who do nothing but occupy their positions continue to be in power, the British wizarding world will be doomed sooner or later.

The children didn't think too much about it, but the adults all had serious faces, probably because they figured out the key.

"What are we having for lunch?" Vincent returned the newspaper to the twins with some disapproval, "I'm hungry. I think I could eat a whole cow right now."

I consumed so much energy last night, and I just recovered from my injuries, so I really need to replenish myself.

Everyone worked together and the long dining table was soon filled with delicious food.

After lunch, Sirius suggested going outside to see what was going on.

All signs of damage to the campsite had largely disappeared, but the smiles on people's faces had also disappeared.

Instead, there is worry and anxiety.

Although the Death Eaters did not cause many casualties, they still brought deep fear.

A haze hung over the camp and over everyone's heart.

"Mr. Wayne?"

Everyone stopped and Vincent turned to look at the middle-aged witch behind him.

"Mr. Wayne, it's really you."

She walked up quickly, tears in her eyes and gently took his uninjured hand.

"Thank you, thank you for encouraging us, otherwise my family would have been buried in the fire."

The people around also recognized Vincent and walked forward with gratitude.

"Thank you, Mr. Wayne, for giving me the courage to live."

"Thank you for driving away the Death Eaters. Without you, this place would have become a hell."

Vincent smiled sincerely. "I just did what I was supposed to do. Compared to the few words I said, the people who spontaneously organized the rescue are the real heroes."

"Yeah, you're all heroes."

“Thank you for everything.”

Everyone felt a little sour in their nose as they watched this heartwarming scene.

Sirius, who had a low tear gland, simply turned his back.

Lupin, who was standing next to him, handed him a handkerchief.

The original intention of spontaneously organizing rescue is to help others, and they don’t want to get any reward for their efforts. A simple thank you is enough.

Although the guys did not participate in the rescue, they all had deep feelings about it.

No matter how terrible the sudden attack of the Death Eaters was, it was not as terrible as having no one to lend a helping hand when disaster struck.
