Dumbledore watched the cats and cats who had just promised him not to act without authorization, running around in the main hall of the Ministry of Magic with a helpless expression.
"We should go, Fish." He reminded, and at the same time, his brows furrowed deeper.
Because Dumbledore found that there seemed to be no one else around here except him and Fish This is obviously very abnormal.
Even at night, the Ministry of Magic should arrange a receptionist who is responsible for checking the visitors' wands, as well as some guards to prevent others from breaking into the forbidden area of ??the Ministry of Magic That's how Sturgis Podmore was caught.
Just when Dumbledore was not feeling well, Fish stopped marking the territory and returned to him.
Then Maomao jumped up lightly, jumped onto Dumbledore's body, hooked his paws on his robe, climbed onto his shoulder in two or three strokes, and sat firmly on it.
The dignified Dumbledore showed a slight smile. He stretched out his finger and gently scratched Fisher's chin, then pulled out his wand to cast an invisibility spell on himself and Mao Mao, and added a Silencing Charm and Elimination spell by the way. Taste spell.
If it was before, Dumbledore would have ended up just hiding his figure, but since he got to know Mao Mao, he has become accustomed to hiding his voice and smell while being invisible.
After finishing all this, Dumbledore walked towards the golden door ahead with his wand and cat on his back. At the same time, he also restrained the smile on his face, and his complexion became serious again.
"There's really no one else" he murmured under his breath. "Is it true that Tom is here? But why does he ask Harry to remind me?"
Dumbledore, who couldn't figure it out for a while, simply quickened his pace, carried Fish through the golden door, and came to a smaller hall. There are at least twenty lifts here, blocked by elaborate golden grille gates.
Dumbledore hurried two steps and came to an elevator.
As he pressed the button, he explained to Fish on his shoulder: "From here on, the Ministry of Magic, like Hogwarts, cannot use Apparition. Although Fox's ability can still work, I'm not sure Will that set off the alarm here."
The elevator clanged and fell from above, and the sound it made when it moved was very harsh in the silent night, but there were still no security personnel from the Ministry of Magic around.
Following the sound of tinkling and cachacacha, the golden grille door slid open gently, and Dumbledore walked in. He tapped the ninth button, and the gate slammed shut, and the elevator began to descend, its chains rattling.
Soon, the elevator stopped, and an indifferent woman's voice sounded: "Department of Mysteries."
The gate slid open slightly, and Dumbledore came out into the corridor. There was no movement around them, only the torches nearest them were swaying from side to side in the draft stirred up by the elevator.
"Meow!"
¡Æ(=¦µ§¥¦µ=)?
However, as soon as Dumbledore stepped out of the elevator, the cat on his shoulder raised his paw and gave him a slap, and also let out an eager cry.
Before he understood what was going on, he heard a voice not far ahead¡ª¡ª
"Hurry up and show up!"
The invisibility spell on Dumbledore and Fish was broken immediately, and the figures of a man and a cat emerged from the air.
Immediately afterwards, wizards appeared in front of them in the originally empty corridor, and the leader was Cornelius Fudge, the current minister of the Ministry of Magic.
"Finally caught by me! What else do you have to say, Dumbledore?!" He asked excitedly.
"So that's how it is" Dumbledore's face showed a look of surprise, he flicked his wand lightly, canceled the soundproof spell, and then said softly: "It's a simple strategy, but it's very effective."
"What trick? Do you still want to say that I tricked you here on purpose?!" Fudge, who didn't know what Dumbledore was talking about,
Continue to spittle and roar.
At the same time, Fish also jumped off Dumbledore's shoulder and resumed his human form.
"Albus, didn't you say you came to fight Voldemort? Why did you change to Fudge?"
(??w??)?
Mao Mao tugged at Dumbledore's robe, asked suspiciously, and expressed his dissatisfaction: "They are so weak, they don't mean anything when they fight."
Many of the group of Aurors around Fudge were beaten by Fish with a group of cats and dogs before Christmas. At that time, they had no power to resist.??The members of the cat club are not much better, so cats are not interested at all.
"We're not going to fight them," Dumbledore calmed Fish first, then turned his head to look at Fudge, and explained softly, "I'm not talking about you, Connelly, just like what Fish said just now , we are here for Voldemort."
"It's that argument again!" Fudge smiled contemptuously, and then blushed and yelled: "I'll say it again! The person who can't even mention his name is dead! Don't scare us any more and disturb us. peace of mind!"
"Well, let's not mention the purpose of Fish and I coming here" Dumbledore didn't want to argue with him anymore, and instead said: "We just picked an uncommon time now to come to magic. Is there any decree that says that wizards are not allowed to visit the Ministry of Magic at night?"
Cornelius Fudge's expression instantly distorted, feeling fooled, he cursed: "Do you think I'm a fool? Dumbledore! Do you need to be invisible to visit the Ministry of Magic?! Don't you want to continue to quibble!"
"About this, Connelly," in stark contrast to the furious Fudge, Dumbledore has always looked calm, his voice is not loud, but clear, "I'm not up there Didn't see any reception staff, so it made perfect sense for me to hide my figure in the belief that something might be wrong with the Ministry."
His blue eyes looked at Fudge calmly through the half-moon lens, "So, can you tell me why you didn't arrange a receptionist in the main hall tonight, but hid in this place with a group of Aurors?" , waiting for 'somebody' to come, Connelly?"
Fudge's expression changed several times quickly, uureading <a href="http://www.uukanshu.com" target="_blank">www.uukanshu.com</a> Then he said viciously: "Because We received a tip that thieves will sneak into the Department of Mysteries tonight, trying to steal the secrets inside!"
"However, this still doesn't explain why you didn't arrange reception staff up there." Dumbledore said with a smile, "If there were people up there, I would visit according to the normal procedure, instead of choosing to sneak in after thinking that something happened here. "
Then¡¡
Connelly Fudge was embarrassed.
He is not a flexible person. Faced with Dumbledore's doubts and sophistry, Cornelius Fudge couldn't think of how to refute for a while.
Just when he was tongue-tied, Dumbledore chased after the victory, "I'm here to give you a little suggestion, Connelly. Even if you are the Minister of Magic, please don't change the original operating mode of the Ministry of Magic at will. It bothers visitors like me and prevents others from being mistaken for 'intruders' in the future."
"I don't need you to teach me how to do things!" An angry Fudge yelled, "Don't think that you can get away with it! I will tell the Wizengamot what happened tonight! You just wait to be judged!"
"That's really a pity." Dumbledore's voice didn't fluctuate at all, he nodded his head slightly at Fudge, "If there is nothing else, then I will take my leave first."
After finishing speaking, he ignored Fudge, whose face turned livid, and pulled Fish back into the elevator.
Trembling all over, Fudge watched as the fence door on the elevator closed automatically, sending Dumbledore and Fish back to the main hall on the eighth floor, and finally let out a growl unbearably, grabbed the bowler hat on his head, and slapped him hard. He fell hard to the ground.
