Chapter 78 Progress

Harry really didn't think he had such a wonderful plan.He simply thought that in order to deal with matters related to the press, it was probably necessary to call in the help of a professional.And it just so happened that one of his friends did have such a person. Although he occasionally behaved a little weirdly, Luna was indeed a journalist.

Although Luna's brain hole is different from ordinary people, she really has to admit that she has an inexplicable attractive power.Just like the terrible Quidditch match in sixth grade that Harry would never want to recall, it was actually ranked in the top ten classic matches in school history by virtue of Luna's bizarre commentary.And after Luna officially took over the Quibbler after the war, the number of subscriptions soared all the way. Recently, it has even strongly suppressed the trend of the Daily Prophet.

Luna might be the best choice, Harry thought.

Luna read the report quickly, and said to Harry, "It doesn't look like peace in the Ministry of Magic."

Harry and Pansy looked at each other with complicated emotions.He felt that Luna must have seen something too. If he had known that Luna would have discovered the mystery, in fact, he didn't need to ask Pan Xi to help him, did he?

"You... where did you see that?" Harry asked tentatively.

"Obviously." Luna brushed her hand across the paper. "The harassment gadfly is overflowing."

"Eh...you didn't wear those...glasses today, so you can see the Harassing Gadfly?" Harry had a complicated expression.

Luna smiled slightly, noncommittal: "I guess you want to give us the exclusivity of The Quibbler."

"This report cannot be published in the newspaper." Harry felt a little headache.To this day, he still often cannot keep up with Luna's train of thought. "I would like your help to publish something else to cover this."

"I'm right." Luna's expression was as innocent as ever. "Don't you mean to give us this exclusive report?"

"I..." Harry struggled, he really couldn't find the words to explain it more clearly.

"You're right, that's what he meant." Pansy, who had been silent all this time, said suddenly. Harry froze, turning his head to look at her.Pansy looked full of hatred: "Mr. Potter, I think Miss Lovegood means that the only report that can steal the limelight from the Savior must be another report about the Savior. But because the content of this matter is really It is too explosive, and the possibility of trying to completely cover up this news is almost zero, unless it is still used, but the "Quieker" starts reporting from another direction, so as to achieve the purpose of guiding public opinion."

Harry sighed: "Honestly, I really can't think of such a complicated thing."

"You don't need to think about it, this report has been written very clearly." Luna snapped her fingers, and a quill jumped out of her pocket.Luna took out a notebook and handed it over, and the pen moved to it consciously. "It's best to make a continuous report, and the stories told step by step will be accepted by more people-maybe try to start with Professor Snape's story."

"Is it in time?" Harry asked after being stunned for a while.

"The Quibbler has an extra issue on Sunday," Luna said. "It would be even better if you could find a way to delay publication of the Daily Prophet story. — Was it difficult?"

Harry sighed and nodded.

"Perhaps you can try to ask me if there is anything I can do." Luna's tone did not fluctuate, but it seemed that she had said something extraordinary.

Harry looked up at her in bewilderment.

"In order to protect important reports, the "Daily Prophet" usually postpones printing until the night before the release. The importance of this report is self-evident, so I guess they must not have started printing." Lu Na said in a cheerful voice that sounded like she was discussing which mall to visit after work. "It just so happened that I found out where their printing plant is. If something happened and Monday's newspaper couldn't be delivered, guess what interesting things would happen?"

"Uh...Luna...you're not good..." Harry frowned. "What is this... malicious competition?"

"I didn't do any great pranks when I was a student, and I've kept it on my mind until now. I'm very happy to finally have this opportunity." Luna said with a smile.She looks ready to leave to pursue this great project of hers.

"Hey maybe we can..." Harry wanted to say something more, but with a poof, a blue flame rose again in the fireplace.The rolled up cigarette ash made Harry cough twice, and when he looked up again, Luna was gone.

Harry returned to the sofa resentfully: "I don't feel at all right now."

"Are you disturbed by conscience?" Pansy chuckled. "You can rest assured. This little trick is not a malicious competition. "The Quibbler" has encountered a lot of black hands from the "Daily Prophet" on the way to its rise. I am afraid that Miss Lovegood this time is nothing more than I just want to get it back for the benefit of the public.”

Harry was taken aback, then laughed.That's right, each of them has changed a lot. In comparison, what is this little change in Luna's body?

There was a small crack of air in the hall, and then Hermione rushed in.She grabbed a glass of white water on the table and drank it down, and she was still a little annoyed when she knocked the quilt back on the table: "Harry, I'm afraid you can't imagine who wrote this report."

"Colin told you?" Harry paused. "Wait a minute, didn't Ron say that Colin's position is not enough to get to the heart of this story?"

"He saw it by accident. But he refused to say it was true. He probably used up all his courage to send this sample out," said Hermione. "I put a little charm on it, and then he told me."

"You can't hypnotize casually..." Harry was a little helpless, how could this Hermione, who just accused him of abusing his power, also learn to deviate...

"Use a little special method on special occasions, and I don't use it at work." Hermione rolled her eyes.In fact, she herself was a little unstable today, and Colin had been submissive, which made her a little upset, and she almost used the spell without paying attention.But Hermione's mood stabilized a lot after that.She felt as if she had found a new and good way to vent her emotions. "The person who wrote this story is Rita Skeeter."

"Rita Skeeter?" It was Harry's turn to be surprised this time. "Isn't she missing?"

"I heard that she actually left the country after the war, but she came back secretly later. It's just that she seemed to have changed after she came back, she looked much younger, and then changed her name." Hermione picked up He took out an old newspaper, flipped through it, and pointed to a name. "Here, the one signed by Tara is actually Rita Skeeter."

It turned out to be so...

Harry smiled wryly.He thought Rita Skeeter had changed her mind and disappeared, but he didn't expect her to start over in a different form.

"This bastard wrote a lot of articles about fishing in troubled waters and slandering our soldiers during the war." The feud between Hermione and Rita can be traced back far. The article about Harry and Hermione edited by Rita during the Goblet of Fire Min's scandal made Hermione angry for a long time. "May I finally find her again this time, can you Aurors apprehend her and send her to the Wizengamot for trial?"

"Even if she's not a Death Eater, she can be considered a speculator, and she has taken a lot of benefits from Death Eaters." Harry nodded. "Since she appeared, she must be arrested. Let Ron arrange this matter. It's just..." Harry paused. "If this report was written by Rita Skeeter, then it seems reasonable that she would have access to the information, and our previous speculation that there was a problem within the Ministry of Magic has gone wrong."

"Not necessarily," Pansy said immediately after him. "First of all, with the security measures of the Ministry of Magic, it is not easy for an illegal Animagus to break in silently. Rita Skeeter, who is using a false identity, must be careful now. There are a lot of them, so I probably won’t do such a risky thing. I think it’s more likely that she has an insider in the Ministry of Magic. — Wait until that Mr. Weasley brings the list over, and you can have a look.”

They were discussing, when suddenly the door was violently knocked open.The sky outside the house was getting a bit dim, and a heavy object smashed in, bringing with it a gust of cold air coming in from the outside.

Harry sighed again.He felt that it was necessary to have a chat with Qiu, otherwise the ancient door at No. 12 in Grimmore Square would really become a thing of the past in a few days.
