[GGAD] Adherent

The whole of Hogwarts was silent at once, and then became full of voices in the next second.Many students and teachers were expressing their dissatisfaction. The man headed by the Ministry of Magic was called Ivelios. He raised his wand and stood among the crowd, watching Phineas walk from the school step by step. Go out the front door of the building.

"You can investigate our students and professors one by one." Phineas stood in front of Evelios, speaking in a very serious tone, "But you have no right to order this school to suspend classes."

"But this is the decision of the Ministry of Magic." Evelios said, "You must abide by it. If you have any objections, you can go to our minister."

"Then you have to give us an explanation." Phineas said word by word, "What happened to the Ministry of Magic that made you so wary of Hogwarts? I don't think any of the students here will think of you .”

"I'm sorry Phineas." Ivirios put down his hand holding his wand, "We can't reveal more. As the headmaster of Hogwarts, I hope you can appeal to the students to actively cooperate with us."

"What if I say no?"

"I'm sorry." Ivirios said, directly hitting the wand in Phineas' hand with a disarming spell.Phineas' wand flew out, and the sound of it rolling down to the ground was clear and loud, which instantly frightened all the students around.

"Phineas Nigellus Black has been temporarily dismissed as headmaster and is subject to suspension investigation." Evelios solemnly announced, "Hogwarts is temporarily run by..."

While speaking, Evelios looked around. The students at Hogwarts were all dressed in uniform black magic robes. Only the professor could wear his own clothes. He set his sights on Albus. Among the professors, he was indeed the only one who looked the youngest and least qualified.

"Let him act as the acting headmaster for the time being." Ivelios accused Albus, saying that if someone from the Ministry of Magic was appointed as the acting headmaster, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the people.If an insignificant person is randomly appointed, it can not only temporarily suppress the turmoil at the bottom of Hogwarts, but also hope that through the control of this young professor, this school can be turned into a part of their power.

The eyes of almost the whole school focused on Albus in an instant, and even he himself was surprised and speechless.Different from other people's inconceivable reasons, Albus didn't expect that Evelios would point to him casually.

Albus could see what the Ministry of Magic was up to, but none of them knew. He seemed to have no qualifications, but he had actually been the principal for more than half a century.

No one knows that this school is actually a place that he wants to guard with his life.

Ivelios dismissed all the students around him, Phineas stopped and stared at Albus for a while when he walked past Albus, then patted Albus on the shoulder with his hands, saying earnestly He said, "Please protect this school."

Albus didn't speak under the gaze of everyone, watching Phineas's back move away a little bit.He was a smart man. Although the Ministry of Magic didn't come to him, they knew that they wanted him to be a headmaster who couldn't hear or see.

They guided Albus to the headmaster's office, and after two years, he returned here again.

The principal's office is still a little different from the one he stayed in back then. Although the ugly stone statue at the door still exists, the layout of the room is completely different.Except for the few missing portraits on the wall, there is no Pensieve, no gilded perch on which Fox perched, and no Sorting Hat and Gryffindor Sword as decorations.

Because Phineas was once a Slytherin.

Aberforth rushed straight to the headmaster's office regardless of the chaos, and it was the first time Albus had seen his brother so angry since he came here.

"Why don't you help Professor Phineas refute what the Ministry of Magic has done!" Aberforth said angrily.

"Because it's no use what I say, or do." Albus replied, "Phineas is a man of strength, but do you know why he doesn't fight back?"

Aberforth was unable to answer, and he heard Albus continue: "Maybe the Ministry of Magic did encounter some difficult things, but they pointed the first finger at Hogwarts without evidence. ,This shows what?"

"Hogwarts makes them feel threatened?"

"That's right." Albus said, "This time they took advantage of this incident to take the opportunity to weaken Hogwarts' strength, so that the school would truly be under the control of the Ministry of Magic and become a part of their strength Phineas obviously also saw some clues, not fighting back is actually the best way."

Aberforth asked again, "What if not?"

"As long as Phineas' wand didn't fly out of his hand at that time, the man named Ivelios had a legitimate reason to suspect that Hogwarts had a motive to attack the Ministry of Magic." Albus analyzed, " And now even though he is under the control of the Ministry of Magic, the good thing is that the other party didn't beat everyone to death with a single stick. They think I'm just a fledgling new professor who doesn't have the skills and strength to manage the entire school and act as the principal. That just fell on me."

"Then what are you going to do?"

Albus smiled and put on a look of calmness: "They are out of luck. If I were them, they would never choose me as the acting headmaster, but would leave the position temporarily vacant, so as to save Feeney There is no one outside of Yass who is competent for this reason. They thought I was a young professor who was easy to control, but unfortunately they were wrong. Regarding the handling of this kind of incident, I can guarantee that this school has no one but me. There is no one more suitable."

After finishing speaking, Albus patted Aberforth on the shoulder, signaled him with his eyes, and said, "You should go back and accept the interrogation by the Ministry of Magic. It will be your turn after the lower grades finish the investigation."

Not long after Aberforth left, he heard a knock on the windowpane. Albus looked up and suddenly found Grindelwald's owl standing on the window eaves.

Albus opened the window to receive the letter, and found that it was Grindelwald's reply to himself.

It was obviously a letter that was sent not long ago, why did you reply immediately?

Ah Bu thought for a long time, and he was sure that the other party was near Hogwarts.

But what is Grindelwald doing here?

Just when he was wondering, the door of the office was knocked again, Albus hurriedly put away the letter and closed the window, pretending that nothing happened, cleared his throat and said, "Please come in."

As he expected, the man who came to find him was indeed the man sent by the Ministry of Magic.The man sat down in front of Albus casually, looked Albus up and down for a while, and then asked, "Name?"

"Albus Dumbledore."

"Then Professor Dumbledore..." Ivery Ous paused and asked, "Do you know how to be a good headmaster?"

Albus said, "I don't think you need to teach me that."

"That's good."

"But I want to know the whole process of the attack on the Ministry of Magic. Other students and professors can't know. I should have the right?" Albus said again.

Ivirios thought for a while, and finally said: "Several members of our Ministry of Magic were attacked on the way to work, and the offices of the Department of Management and Control of Magical Beasts and the Department of International Magical Cooperation were damaged to varying degrees. Someone did it on purpose."

"Fantastic Beasts?" asked Albus. "What animals got out?"

"A lot." Evelios replied, "I can't tell you the specifics, I can only say...we lost a very important animal."

"Then how was the cooperation department attacked?"

"A very powerful force." Evelius paused, "I don't know if the professor has heard of Moran? We suspect that someone is manipulating this force."

Hearing this, Albus's heart sank suddenly. Since it was silently causing trouble, one can imagine the person behind it.Probably in the entire magic world, except for Grindelwald, no one has the courage and strength to challenge the Ministry of Magic.

Albus frowned, if Grindelwald deliberately attacked their Foreign Office, he could understand, after all, these Foreign Office officials made him feel very uncomfortable, but why destroy the Department of Magical Beasts Control?

Although Ivirios didn't explain what he said, the meaning of what he said was already on the table.When he left, Albus sat in the chair and didn't get up, which made Ivelios' face slightly ugly.After the other party left the principal's office, Albus pulled out another piece of parchment, on which he simply wrote three words "Where are you?", and handed it to the owl to watch it fly high into the sky again.

Albus was sure Grindelwald would hear from him soon, and he stood in front of the portraits on the wall in his office, where the previous headmasters looked at him in dismay.Obviously Albus was randomly appointed by the Ministry of Magic to be acting headmaster, but Hogwarts unexpectedly accepted him.

The principal who is not recognized by the school cannot use the principal's office, but at this moment Albus is standing in this room, as if it should belong to him.

There was a sudden noise outside the door, and Albus followed the sound and found a student being escorted by the Ministry of Magic in the lobby on the first floor.People from the Ministry of Magic had seen Albus a long time ago, and thought he was just an idiot headmaster, they didn't take Albus seriously.Facing the student who was trying to resist, one of them raised his wand, said aloud "Petrificus Totalus" and cast the petrification spell on the student.

Unable to use attacking and defensive spells on them, Albus put on a serious face. He stood on the bottom of the stairs, pointed at the petrified student from a distance and held his wand firmly.

"The spell stops immediately," Albus said coldly.
