Hogwarts, was gnawed at the beginning

The banquet ended soon, and the afternoon sun reluctantly returned home. Now it was the moon's turn to be on duty. She poured out the cold moonlight, driving away the summer heat. There was a gentle breeze, and even better, Mrs. Weasley and the two girls quickly brought iced juice.

Everyone moved from the tent to the courtyard. Bill and Charlie worked together to use the Transfiguration Spell to conjure more than a dozen chairs. Percy took Mr. Weasley and sat not far from Soul and the others, still chatting about his ideals and cause.

However, Percy finally stopped reporting on the report he was currently working on on regulating the thickness of the bottom of imported crucibles, and instead complained about a person named Ludo Bagman in the Ministry of Magic.

Percy serves as Barty Crouch's assistant in the Department of International Magical Cooperation, but rather than being Barty Crouch's assistant, Percy is Umbridge's assistant.

Politicians are very cruel to their enemies. Yes, I am talking about Fudge here. Due to Suhr's intervention, he caught Crouch's sore feet. After Crouch's reputation was disgraced, he put Crouch to death. The position will be completed in one fell swoop.

I was just afraid that others would say that I looked too ugly, so I gave Crouch a position as deputy director of the International Magical Cooperation Department, where the symbolism was greater than the authority.

The actual power is firmly controlled by Umbridge.

In fact, Percy was assigned by Umbridge to be the assistant of a loser. Spying on Barty Crouch was one meaning, but it was no different than being sent to serve a concubine who had been relegated to the cold palace in a palace drama. Just like a maid.

I don’t know what Umbridge said to Percy to make him feel that he has a bright future, as if he will soon be the deputy director, then the director, and finally the minister of magic. He is talking now With panache as if you have achieved your highest goal.

"I really don't understand how Ludo Bagman became the director! Bertha Jorkins in their department has been missing for more than a month. She went to Albania for vacation and never came back."

Percy sighed grandly, as if this Bertha Jorkins was his subordinate, and then he took a deep sip of the juice in his hand, "If I were Ludo Bagman, I would I will definitely investigate the disappearance of my subordinates instead of leaving it alone."

Albania?Oh, this is a familiar place name, it seems that Lao Fu is hiding there.

"I have also heard about Bertha Jorkins." Mr. Weasley frowned slightly, "I also asked Ludo about this matter, and the explanation he gave was that Bertha had disappeared many times. He's used to it."

"But to be fair, if one of my men had been missing for more than a month, I would definitely be worried about her..."

"That's it. I originally wanted to take the initiative to go to Albania to find Bertha Jorkins. This is an opportunity to make a contribution."

Percy sighed again, "However, our International Magical Cooperation Department has too many things to do, and we don't have the time to find people for other departments."

"You know, after we successfully organize the World Cup, we still have to organize a large-scale event."

When Percy said this, he cleared his throat solemnly and turned to look at Soul's position.

"You know, Dad, that is a very remarkable event, and it is related to the international reputation of our Ministry of Magic."

He raised his voice, "This is top secret!"

After hearing this, Ron rolled his eyes and whispered to Suer and the others,

"He's been teasing us about it since he started working. I know he just wants us to hold him up and show off to us that he knows things we don't know, but Fred and I agree that probably It’s an exhibition of thick-bottomed crucibles.”

"Then you are wrong about Percy." Charlie came over and interjected, "I do know what it is, but it's a pity that I have graduated and will not be able to attend this grand event."

"Oh?" Ron looked up in surprise, "Do you know what that is? Tell us about it."

"It's not time to announce it yet, Ron. The Ministry of Magic will announce it when it thinks everyone can know." Charlie smiled mysteriously and shook his head.

Ron rolled his eyes again, "Percy has said this nonsense several times. What's the difference between this and him using top secrets to try to prevaricate us?"

"Is it the Triwizard Tournament you talked about? Sur?" Hermione also understood and asked quietly in Sur's ear.

Suer nodded calmly.

At this time, Percy began to raise his voice again and spoke proudly,

"Ms. Umbridge told me that my current role as Barty Crouch's assistant is only temporary. If these two events are successfully held, Ms. Umbridge will transfer me to her as an assistant. "

"It can be expected that after Barty Crouch resigns or retires, the position of Deputy Director of the Department of International Magical Cooperation will be mine."

"Ms. Umbridge said it's entirely possible that I broke the Ministry of Magic's record for fastest promotion!"

Good guy, Barty Crouch's status in the Ministry of Magic has plummeted. Everyone is pushing him against him. Even a new employee like Percy dares to call him by his first name.

It turns out that it was Umbridge who drew such a big picture for Percy. No wonder Percy would be willing to be the assistant of a man who has declined in power, tsk tsk.

"She also told me---"

"Listen, Percy." Mr. Weasley interrupted Percy's talk about Umbridge drawing other cakes for him. "I know you are very motivated and want to become a member of the Ministry of Magic." Someone who matters.”

"But sometimes, it's not a good thing to pursue the position above too much." Mr. Weasley was silent for a while and considered his words.

"If it were me, I would suggest that you'd better keep your feet on the ground, complete the basic work at hand first, fully understand what you need to do in your position, set an achievable goal, achieve it, and then consider promotion. Job matters."

Mr. Weasley's kind words didn't seem to be heard by Percy. He was quite disapproving and his attitude was perfunctory.

"I understand what you mean, Dad. Ms. Umbridge said that I just need some exercise now. I am doing such things now. When Barty Crouch resigns or retires, it will be natural for me to take the position. Something happened."

"I still have a report to write. It's best to be quiet while you are chatting here, okay? I have to finish it before going to the World Cup."

After Percy finished speaking, he stood up and left and walked into the house. Mr. Weasley stared at the back of his third son, with a hint of worry in his eyes, and sighed deeply.

Mrs. Weasley walked over and patted her husband's shoulder gently.

"There's nothing wrong with a child wanting to make progress. Don't worry too much and let him make his own way, Arthur."
