Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

Things have become very troublesome since Sirius showed up.

Mr. Weasley explained that Dumbledore had placed a powerful magical protection around Harry, and unless the magic was removed, there would be no way to pick Harry up.

In fact, even if Sirius tried to get through, he couldn't. He tried to break through by brute force, but I stopped him and took him home by force.

Moreover, Mr. Weasley knocked out the enraged Sirius with a single blow from his bare hands, without using any magic at all.

Now I understand. It turns out that this method can be used to stop him at a critical moment. This is quite valuable for reference.

Although I am not as good as him in magic, I have been in some rough situations in the past few years. If I don't use magic, I might be stronger... Sirius is a friend and is not very wary of me, so I can just take him by surprise.

After bringing him home, Sirius regained consciousness and was furious.

"But, that bearded old man will definitely not hand over Harry, right? But if you lose your temper, it will cause trouble for me too."

"Then what are you going to do!"

"Attack head-on. It must be done openly and aboveboard.

You could actually force your way in and get Harry out, but that's not a good idea. Harry's adoptive parents are very cooperative and will never let Harry leave their side. So, we don't need to rush into it. Rather than rushing into it, I want to weaken Dumbledore's influence on Harry and make sure that I can take Harry away from him in the future.

First, you need to go to the Ministry of Magic and ask Dumbledore to remove the magic he has placed around Harry. Rather than forcibly removing the magic, it is better to make the wizards in the Ministry of Magic suspicious of Dumbledore. In this way, their gossip will gradually spread throughout the wizarding world.

Now, everyone thinks he is the embodiment of justice, and they believe without a second thought that everything will be fine as long as they listen to him. I want to break this perception. We have issued warnings through newspapers and other means, but most ordinary wizards are still suspicious. The fact that Hogwarts is full of giant spiders should have planted the seeds of doubt in their hearts. Although this is beyond my expectations, it is an opportunity. In order to wake up the entire wizarding world, we need to create a bigger wave.

I want everyone to understand that Dumbledore is not a righteous being.

His so-called justice does not necessarily bring happiness. It cannot even guarantee the happiness of a child who has lost his parents. I want everyone to realize that if they continue to follow his words, there will be no bright future for themselves, their children, and even the entire wizarding world. In short, I want to leave them with this impression.

Do you understand? We are charging him, but we don't have enough evidence yet. He will be out of jail soon."

"Why! Even about Harry!"

"Yes, but he has always acted in accordance with his own self-righteous justice, so he does not feel guilty at all. Moreover, he won Grindelwald's wand through a duel, so it is not unreasonable for him to own it. However, it is a good thing that the wand was taken away from Dumbledore. That thing is indeed very powerful, and his power has been weakened a little. Although he cannot be convicted, it can be regarded as some results.

You saw how strong the magical barrier around Harry's house was, right? That was a lot of money, enough to offset Harry's living expenses. So, from another perspective, it can be said that this is a reasonable expense."

Indeed... Even I can understand how amazing it is to cast such a powerful spell on the Muggle streets. It is so powerful that not only enemies can't get close, but also friends can't get close. Although it is a bit excessive, it can be said to be to ensure Harry's safety. The amount of money spent is probably staggering and unimaginable...

"But he still used the Potter family vault as he pleased!"

"To continue to carry out magic on this scale in a Muggle area with little magic power, some kind of magical equipment may be needed. Dumbledore usually stays in Hogwarts, and even if he has helpers, he can only provide magic power. I guess he has hidden magical equipment somewhere, but the development costs cannot be paid with Harry's child support alone. He may have used the funds of the branch family farthest from Harry, instead of directly using the treasury of Harry or the Potter family. As for the Potter family's magical equipment and books in Hogwarts and related places, he would say that they were borrowed to develop magic to protect Harry. In this way, he really has no awareness of personal misappropriation, and all of it was spent on Harry. Therefore, he will never feel that he has done anything wrong and will insist that this is a legitimate expenditure."

I see...it's very possible.

"That's right. He has been acting in accordance with his own justice, so it is easy for him to quibble... It can't be called quibbling, because he doesn't think he has done anything wrong. If you ask him the reason, he will definitely give a legitimate explanation..."

"Lupin is right."

"But he still placed a Squib nearby!"

"But I heard that Harry's adoptive parents really hate wizards. In order not to irritate them, it makes sense to place a Squib nearby, even though it's useless."

"..."

In his opinion, all this should be for Harry... Just as I was thinking this, Mr. Malfoy said:

"If he really cares about Harry, he might as well let the Weasleys take care of him. He only needs to pay one tenth of their child support and they will be happy to accept it.

The Weasley family is the largest family in the light camp, and their family defense is also impregnable. Not only the main family, but the entire family can protect Harry. Moreover, the Weasley family is prosperous, and it is quite difficult to find out where Harry is hiding. Besides, their whole family has red hair, and they can easily hide Harry by dyeing their hair red with magic. In addition, their family is full of powerful people, and they can definitely strike at the dark forces searching for Harry and weaken their power. The pure-blood nobles in the dark camp know this very well, so they will not easily attack the Weasley family. In this way, Harry's safety can be guaranteed to a certain extent, and at the same time it can attract a large number of small fish. For the dark camp, this is undoubtedly a huge but secret blow.

However, the old man obviously will not make a choice that will make him lose influence."

"Yes, after all, the Weasley family is very large. There are many children in the family, and they all have red hair. If you hide Harry among them, no one will recognize him. And Harry has been targeted by the dark forces for many years, so it is more appropriate for him to hide."

"Yes, even if you only undertake one tenth of the task, it will be enough, and the amount of money will be considerable. Our family has never produced a dark wizard, and we have made comprehensive countermeasures against dark wizards."

"However, our family has always been suspicious of Dumbledore and would never hand Harry over to him. Our family has no dealings with the Potters and the Blacks. In fact, we rarely interact with other prominent families. We don't have the money to socialize with them."

"Even though our family was appointed as guardians, my uncle Percival said that he had a good relationship with Tom Riddle when they were in school. This became a reason for them to raise objections, saying that there might be a dark wizard inside our family."

"They must be trying to get Harry into their hands."

"The same is true of the Pruwitt family. Although Molly has no inheritance rights, the Pruwitt brothers made a will, leaving everything to their parents, and may have asked Dumbledore to leave something for Molly and her children. If this is true, it is not a big crime. After all, the Pruwitt brothers asked him to do this before they died, and this excuse can easily get away with it. Maybe this is really the case."

"In that case, it would be impossible to impose severe sanctions on him."

"But don't forget the Acromantura incident at Hogwarts!"

"Technically, that was Hagrid's business. Dumbledore was not personally involved. He could say that he agreed to it because Hagrid promised to manage it properly."

"Indeed, so far, no Acromantula has come out of the Forbidden Forest to eat students, which can be considered to be well controlled. On the other hand, Dumbledore can still argue that the problem arose because of his absence."

"That's possible. He must think that it was because of his imprisonment that all this chaos happened. He knew about the existence of Akromantula, but tolerated it because Hagrid was in charge. Now, he may put all the blame on Hagrid. After all, it's not wrong to say so."

"In that case, maybe he will be released soon."

"Yes, although he has been removed from his position as headmaster, it is impossible to keep him in prison for a long time under the current circumstances. Moreover, there are still many wizards who support him. We must prevent him from becoming the headmaster again after the limelight has passed. In fact, not only the headmaster, but all his honorary positions should be stripped away. Before he is released from prison, we must destroy the status, reputation, and image he has built."

"So during this period, we need to make the entire wizarding world realize that Dumbledore's so-called justice is actually not beneficial to the wizarding world. As long as he is here, the wizarding world cannot have peace and has no future development prospects. If this concept spreads widely, the Ministry of Magic may try its best to continue to imprison Dumbledore in order to reform the wizarding world. In fact, he has not committed any serious crime, and it may not even be a crime."

"No matter what, Dumbledore is still a just man, even though his justice does not benefit the wizarding world."

Indeed, if you look closely, he didn't do anything particularly bad. If you say this is a crime, it doesn't seem right.

So, they want to make everyone realize that Dumbledore's justice is not helpful to the wizarding world, and promote this cognition. How smart... This is different from James and Sirius who only know how to study. It's another kind of intelligence. It would be great if they both had this kind of brain. I have it too, but I was still young at the time, so it didn't matter. I heard that he had actually become the patriarch of the family before he entered Hogwarts. People with this kind of experience are really different. Social experience is really important. James and Sirius were both children who were protected too well. We were still children at that time. To be honest, is it really appropriate for the headmaster to drag these children with no work experience to participate in such activities? I never questioned such things at the time. "

"So, I want you to go to the Ministry of Magic and demand that they hand over Harry."

"That old man won't hand it over."

"What are you going to do?"

"Calm down. It's because you're not calm that you're being taken advantage of by that old man."

"...How about this, why don't you just use the magic tools in your house? The kind of torture tools that can absorb magic power will be perfect for dealing with him."

"Yes, that's a good idea. But that magical instrument looks too weird. In order to prevent people from thinking that the Black family is dangerous, we must first make everyone sufficiently suspicious of Dumbledore's refusal to hand over Harry before we use that instrument."

"Put that thing on and drain his magic. The protective spell around Harry will weaken and can be easily broken."

"…I have some clues too. I'll go look for them."
