Starting Over At Hogwarts

Starting Over At Hogwarts Chapter 148

2021-12-09

Chapter 148 The real purpose is never just Horcrux
Life is always so fickle.

Even the Dark Lord had to compromise.

Voldemort used to hold a grudge against Harry Potter.

However, due to Pettigrew Peter's troubles, almost destroying or mastering all of Voldemort's Horcrux, Voldemort was forced to choose to protect Harry Potter, the Horcrux that appeared by accident.

The Dark Lord is looking forward to the start of Hogwarts more than anyone.

Because this school is undoubtedly the safest place, the most powerful white wizard in Dumbledore in this world stands in the light, and the Dark Lord hides in the dark.

In case Pettigrew Peter noticed something was wrong with Harry Potter, Voldemort thought that the little fellow would be sheltered here so that he wouldn't be killed by Pettigrew Peter...

"That mouse ..."

Voldemort couldn't help thinking of Pettigrew Peter, who had been cowardly in front of him.

The world is changing so fast.

Before the summer of 1991, Voldemort had to take refuge in the Albanian Forest, when Pettigrew Peter first destroyed Horcrux, believing the coward had betrayed him and turned to Grindelwald.

This was enough to make Voldemort angry...

However, when Voldemort returned to the magic circle with the help of Quirrell, he realized that his anger was still too little. Mice even started to plan to kill him since they took refuge in him!

The guy who has been pretending to be a coward...

He even used his Dark Lord as a pawn!
Pettigrew Peter used him as a stepping stone, the whole magic circle regarded him as a laughing stock, even if he died at the hands of Harry Potter, it was far more humiliating than being treated as a pawn!
"Sooner or later... kill him!"

Voldemort's face was filled with anger!
"Master..."

Quirrell was lying on the bed shiver coldly, he could feel how angry the Dark Lord attached to the back of his head was, for fear that the Dark Lord would kill him directly to vent his anger. .

Obviously.

Quirrell thinks too much.

At least this time, Voldemort won't waste Quirrell as a servant.

It's a pity that the Philosopher's Stone that Voldemort wanted to get was also stolen by Pettigrew Peter in advance, which made Voldemort feel that Pettigrew Peter, who had deceived himself, may have become his worst enemy!

In fact.

Voldemort is not without a chance to get Philosopher's Stone.

At this time, Philosopher's Stone was not in Pettigrew Peter's hands at all.

It just so happened that Snape got the news from Lucius that Bellatrix was going to the House of Black ancestral home, and that Pettigrew Peter had been following Bellatrix, because he was worried about Harry Potter's safety, he and Hagrid hurried Arrive at the ancestral home of the House of Black.

Unfortunately, they arrived too late.

Snape and Hagrid only know the story of Pettigrew Peter's use of Bellatrix, and thus also know that Pettigrew Peter used Philosopher's Stone to bribe Cornelius · Fudge, and the news of the long collusion with the Ministry of Magic.

This kind of thing...

It's certainly not something they can handle.

So Hagrid immediately notified Dumbledore in Durmstrang.

The collusion between a Minister of Magic and a Dark Lord is definitely not a trivial matter, even Dumbledore is impossible to ignore this matter, he can only hurriedly end the discussion with Grindelwald , returned to London overnight.

Many people are sleeping through the night tonight.

Cornelius · Fudge is trying hard to suppress Bellatrix's presence in Gringotts, trying to define the mad woman as the first prisoner to escape from Azkaban, trying to get rid of his responsibility.

However, Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement Amelia · Bones is a serious person. She personally went to Azkaban to check the details, and it is possible to find out that Umbridge appeared in Azkaban to extract prisoners.

In fact, she didn't need to check.

Because someone is making a big deal of it.

If not, how could Cornelius Fudge get out of office? How can the current Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement Amelia Bones take the position of Minister and free up her place?

It was late at night.

London suburbs.

Crouch's home.

Pettigrew Peter is back here.

This third generation Dark Lord who had just made a bunch of troubles, his naked eye body began to change, and quickly returned to the appearance of a gray-haired boy.

It was Wesson.

Old Barty Crouch's expression is slightly subtle.

Although he doesn't know how much trouble Wesson has done impersonating Pettigrew Peter, it's a lot of trouble just to steal Philosopher's Stone and make a fuss about Gringotts...

"I'm almost done."

Wesson reached out and took off the wide cloak, put on a new set of teenage clothes, and said slowly to old Barty Crouch: "The rest is We have a really troublesome problem..."

"Is there anything else to do?"

Old Barty Crouch is not calm enough, and even faintly reveals a little tired: "You I have already grabbed Philosopher's Stone, is there anything more troublesome than this?"

"My purpose is not for Philosopher's Stone..."

Wesson sat in the chair in the living room on the back of his head, boredly holding his head: "I bribed Cornelius Fudge with Philosopher's Stone to let him release a Death Eater from Azkaban, which should almost be able to pull him down from the Ministry of Magic's long position. ?"

"..."

Old Barty's eyes suddenly startled!
What the hell is this?

To bribe the Minister of Magic with Philosopher's Stone!
Which Ministry of Magic can survive this test?

Unless someone like Rufus ·Scrimgeour, other wizards can hardly stand the temptation of Philosopher's Stone, even more how Cornelius ·Fudge himself is a greedy guy!

"If nothing else, Dumbledore should know soon."

Wesson spread his palms and said his plan with ease: "I told it on purpose. The Sirius group, let them know that Cornelius · Fudge took bribes from Philosopher's Stone and colluded with Pettigrew Peter..."

He told a long story in the ancestral home of the Black family!
It would be a waste of his story if it wasn't revealed, but he used Philosopher's Stone to make a trap for Cornelius · Fudge!
When he said this, Wesson's eyes suddenly sharpened, and lightly said with a smile: "The entire Ministry of Magic should also know about Minister Fudge. How will this Minister be dealt with?"

“…”

The old Barty fell silent.

This little fellow is somewhat of a problem.

Having worked so hard, and even used Philosopher's Stone as a price and bait, just to bring Cornelius Fudge down?
But...

He can definitely do it.

If what the little fellow Wesson said is true, once this matter is exposed, everyone will impossible that Cornelius Fudge will continue to serve as the Minister of Magic, and we will definitely see Cornelius this week. News of Fudge being fired or resigning himself.

Two years ago.

Wesson said he wanted to let the Minister of Magic step down.

Now the Minister of Magic, who has only been in office for a year, is really going to step down.

And what they agreed at the beginning was to let old Barty Crouch return to the magic Department of Magical Law Enforcement, master the Auror squad of the Ministry of Magic, and completely control the armed forces of the Ministry of Magic.

"If Fudge steps down..."

Old Barty Crouch, thinking about the Ministry of Magic's situation, couldn't help but slowly Shook the head and said, "The next Minister should be Rufus. Or Amelia, but I wouldn't necessarily be able to go back to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement..."

It's not easy to handle.

Although Wesson has created good enough opportunities, it is not easy for old Barty, who has been free from the center of Ministry of Magic, to return to the center of power.

"Then you're on Dumbledore's side."

Wesson gave an opinion, and continued nonchalantly: "I believe Dumbledore must have hoped that someone would be kind to him. The man becomes his helper in the Ministry of Magic, as long as you and the Dark Lord are absolutely irreconcilable…”

“…”

old Barty ·Crouch is a little at a loss as to what to say.

Even though the most dangerous Dark Lord in this world is his partner, he has to make him act like the Dark Lord is absolutely irreconcilable to lure Dumbledore to support him...

So plot against an old man...

Why doesn't Wesson's conscience still hurt?
No surprises.

Dumbledore would certainly like it.

Since the previous Minister Millison resigned, the Ministry of Magic has not done anything serious on the Dark Lord's side over the past year, anyway, this time it started to cause trouble to Dumbledore again, anyone can see this …

Once Cornelius Fudge steps down and Amelia Bones, the current director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, takes over as the head of the Ministry of Magic, her position will be vacated. Generally speaking, this position will definitely require a strong wrist. people.

Now the entire Ministry of Magic can go to the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement who has a most suitable candidate, Rufus Scrimgeour, because he also happens to be the director of Auror's office.

It's a pity.

Rufus ·Scrimgeour is too tough.

Even had a very tough attitude towards Dumbledore at one point, he didn't like Dumbledore's compromise to Grindelwald at all, this man did not hesitate to suppress Dumbledore in order to maintain the authority of the Ministry of Magic.

Once Scrimgeour is seated as the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, who knows how much this guy will do, but unfortunately Dumbledore has no reason to interfere with Scrimgeour's superior...

unless.

Someone is willing to stand up.

If this person happens to be a wizard who likes him very much, Dumbledore will not interfere with the appointment of officials of the Ministry of Magic, but it will definitely go with the flow, especially when the whole magic circle is in chaos. !
This year…

Three Dark Lords will appear on the magic circle stage!

Even if Dumbledore wooed Grindelwald ahead of time, the pressure on him is not small. If someone who can mobilize Auror troops at any time is willing to support him, it will definitely be of great benefit in the future.

August 2, 1991.

This is a day that is not destined to be peaceful.

Daily Prophet published today's headlines.
