Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

Chapter 107: The Obstacles to Employment Are Getting More Serious

I had doubts in my mind, so I asked Ms. Tonks:

"Speaking of which, when will Dumbledore's trial begin?"

She replied, "We'll have to wait a while. The deeper we investigate, the more we find. The case is not over yet. And we'll try to delay the trial as long as possible. As Ron said, all the charges are ambiguous. Dumbledore didn't do it himself, and his methods were very clever and left no traces. If we follow the principle of 'innocent until proven guilty', he might even be acquitted."

The investigation into his embezzlement of the Potter family's property has not yet been fully concluded. We found a large number of magic books and magic instruments from the headmaster's office and other places. He claimed that these things were just borrowed or kept for safekeeping. In fact, many of these items are indeed quite tricky, and even the Department of Mysteries has difficulty handling them, so it cannot be said that he is completely wrong. As for the money from the Potter family, he claimed that it was to pay for the magical protection around Harry. Although this is not the real purpose of child support, he insisted that it was to ensure Harry's safety.

So, he can't be blamed for these things, but it is indeed very delicate whether the charges can be established. However, the top leaders of the Ministry of Magic are very clear that Dumbledore's actions are not good for the future of the wizarding world, so they intend to adopt a delaying strategy and detain him for a long time. Although some radical people advocate sending him directly to Azkaban without trial, in fact, this situation is extremely delicate and it is difficult to establish the charges, which makes everyone more irritable.

There was also pressure from the upper echelons, and some even proposed using magical tools similar to those of the Black family to develop devices that could disable magic, and then throw them into the cells of people like Lestrange, the Carrow brothers and sisters, and Malcibel. These proposals were circulated jokingly, and just imagining it could relieve a lot of pressure.

A tough administrator who called himself an "ordinary staff" submitted a half-joking proposal to Dumbledore and was then sent to Hogwarts to investigate. He already disliked Dumbledore, and probably hated him even more after he went there. The top brass knew it was a joke, but because of the great pressure, they sometimes took it a little too seriously. "

"Oh, the guy who calls himself an 'ordinary employee'. He disappeared as soon as he saw me, and I don't know why. I didn't do anything, so I think we should get along well, right? But every time I wanted to go up and say hello, he disappeared. He's amazing, he didn't even give me a chance to talk."

"He probably doesn't want to be noticed by any of the heads of pureblood families. I can't even catch him outside of work."

"I had no work experience with him, and we never even spoke to each other, but he always ran very fast."

Calling himself an ordinary employee but being a ruthless person, how can these two things be compatible? It's really interesting. I decided to look for him after returning to Hogwarts. It feels very interesting.

"He claims to be non-factional, so he keeps his distance from any powerful pure-blood nobles, famous families, or Dumbledore's supporters outside of work. Even though my wife has been expelled from the Black family, he is still very wary of me."

"Then it seems there is no hope for me. He is also very wary of us Weasleys. Everyone in the family says that he has a very good sense of smell in this regard."

"Leave him alone. This way he can concentrate on his work. No one should bother him. After all, he calls himself an 'ordinary employee', and he probably doesn't even know that he has become a non-faction leader."

I became more and more interested in this capable employee of the Ministry of Magic who called himself an ordinary employee. Even my uncle couldn't catch him, which made me more curious about him.

Tonks went on to say, "However, Dumbledore's supporters are a real headache. Their obstruction has slowed down the investigation. I really should have sent them to Hogwarts as well. We sent the obvious supporters there at the beginning, but the situation there is too complicated, and many supporters have become opponents. The rest are still in the Ministry of Magic, which is a real headache. I hope they will wake up soon. Fortunately, Hogwarts has Professor McGonagall to suppress them, and opponents are often sent back tied up.

As for the students from ordinary Slytherin families, the obstacles they encounter in finding employment are becoming more and more serious. Their supporters always think that they are lying and blame them everywhere, making a mess of things.

Sometimes, things develop to such a point that it is no longer clear who is right and who is wrong.

However, the higher-ups seem to be taking advantage of this situation. The longer the investigation is delayed, the later the trial can be held, and the longer the detention time. The more those supporters hinder the investigation, the longer the delay. Therefore, the higher-ups are not in a hurry to solve the problem completely, but instead allow the investigation to continue to be delayed. Although the progress of the work is affected, obstruction of the investigation itself does not constitute a crime, so they are also let go. They will not be arrested until they directly attack other employees or destroy documents at will. Although these people are annoying, sometimes they suddenly come to their senses and can continue to work for the Ministry of Magic. We also hope that they will come to their senses as much as possible, after all, the number of employees has been reduced a lot. "

Tonks sounded exhausted, and indeed seemed exhausted both physically and mentally.

"That old man is always obstructing Slytherin students from finding jobs, so most of these ordinary students can only work in companies run by pure-blood nobles.

There are also many Muggle-born students in Slytherin. Sometimes we sponsor them to study at Muggle universities, let them work for pure-blood nobles in Muggle companies, and even obtain dual qualifications.

But the old man said that it was the pure-blood nobles who led the ordinary students astray, and he had believed this for a long time. He prevented them from finding jobs, but never explained where these students should work. Even non-Slytherin students would seek the protection of the pure-blood nobles of the Slytherin family, but he denied all of them and thought that we were leading them to the evil path. "

Lucius explained to Tonks: "If you have the protection of a pure-blood Slytherin, you don't have to worry about your livelihood. That's why so many people become Death Eaters. It's more out of practical considerations of life than out of ideology."
