Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 10 Alumni Association

"I think the Ministry of Magic no longer has the ability to find out the truth. It can either start the trial now or put it on hold indefinitely, but the restrictions on Lu Ke must be lifted."

Umbridge almost instinctively wanted to retort, but she stopped.

Dumbledore's request was actually completely inconsistent with the rules of the Wizengamot and could be refuted with almost no thought. But now he was questioning the entire Ministry of Magic, and only Minister Fudge could respond directly.

Fudge glanced at Dumbledore: "The Ministry of Magic is absolutely reliable and competent..."

Then Dumbledore glanced at Fudge: "Where are the dementors?"

Fudge was speechless.

This is a very far-fetched logical chain, but after Dumbledore's sudden appearance caused Fudge and his two mistakes, no one would care about the far-fetched logic.

All the wizards here will only notice one thing: the dementors have begun to attack the wizards.

This is one thing that proves Fudge's complete dereliction of duty. As for Amelia Burns's statement, it cannot convince anyone at all.

So now, Dumbledore and Lu Ke used a very strong reason that Fudge could not refute.

Of course, Fudge can still ignore all reasons and be stubborn. Even if he doesn't, Umbridge will do the same.

Except this is the Wizengamot.

After a while of whispers, a wizard finally spoke to Fudge.

"I think we can start the trial."

This was a unanimous decision among the wizards present.

Fudge felt that he was a little unlucky, Dumbledore was a little stubborn, and the wizards here were a little unreasonable.

But no matter how difficult it is, we still have to persevere. This is the persistence that the Minister of Magic should have.

Fudge glanced at Lu Ke.

"We need a break."

The wizards looked at each other, but finally agreed.

After the crowd walked out of the room, only Dumbledore, Luke, Fudge and Umbridge were left here.

Dumbledore knew that Fudge wanted to speak to him alone.

But just like Fudge would not let Umbridge leave, Dumbledore would not let Lu Ke leave.

"Dumbledore...you shouldn't hold on to something that is wrong."

Dumbledore nodded: "I don't think you can convince me about Tom coming back."

Fudge's face darkened.

Dumbledore immediately changed his subject: "But regarding Lu Ke's trial, I think you can find a suitable method. Lu Ke is a student of Hogwarts, and this will not change."

Fudge watched as Dumbledore fell silent.

But before he could say anything, Dumbledore turned around and left with Lu Ke.

They walked outside, down the hallway, and into a room.

There were many wizards who had just attended sitting there, all holding teacups and enjoying afternoon tea.

"Ah... Fudge is such an unpleasant Minister of Magic. He actually asked us to come here three hours early."

An old wizard complained to Dumbledore casually: "But you still caught up, Dumbledore, who was tipping you off?"

Dumbledore smiled: "Arthur Weasley, but not for me. His son Ron Weasley is Harry's best friend."

The wizard and the other elderly wizards who came around him showed a nostalgic smile: "The friendship in Hogwarts is really a distant but beautiful memory..."

"So Hogwarts is still the same."

A witch sighed: "Thankfully you are here, Dumbledore. If there is anything in the world that I never want it to change, it must be Hogwarts."

All the elderly wizards around nodded along.

Here is a group of Hogwarts alumni: in fact, the entire wizarding world of Anglicis is full of Hogwarts alumni.

Even Slytherin and Gryffindor, who are at odds with each other, at this age, can only remember that they are students of Hogwarts.

"Fudge shouldn't have used such despicable means to deal with a Hogwarts student."

A wizard shook his head, then glanced at Lu Ke: "But then again, why would you admit a squib into the school?"

Dumbledore glanced at Lu Ke, then shook his head: "Actually, he is a special wizard, but he can't cast spells."

The wizard glanced at Lu Ke curiously: "He doesn't seem to be a prophet, nor does he seem to have any other talents..."

"But also, if he is really a squib, how could he possibly enter Hogwarts."

Then a witch on the side nodded: "Even if he is a squib, Fudge has no right to do this. There are even dementors..."

Dumbledore nodded: "Those are beasts that will never give up hunting wizards."

A wizard glanced at Dumbledore: "What do you think...the dementor Harry Potter encountered?"

Dumbledore sighed: "Of course I believe that the Minister of Magic still controls this dangerous power. After all, the Dementors are irrational. If they were really out of control, they would have started hunting innocent people everywhere."

This sentence seemed to make the wizard relax, but at the same time, other people around him showed worried expressions.

Because this also means that Fudge would not even hesitate to attack a wizard with a dementor, no matter what the reason.

“We’ve been looking at comments throughout the week.”

A witch said seemingly casually.

Dumbledore turned to face her, and then looked around: "I think even if the Minister of Magic is to be replaced at this time, it should not be replaced by a witch who has never worked in the Ministry of Magic."

This sentence attracted a burst of unclear glances.

Although the wizards here each have their own opinions.

"But Fudge is definitely not suitable anymore."

A wizard said casually.

Dumbledore did not answer.

It wasn't that he had no objections to Fudge, or that he didn't support the idea, but he was just unwilling to express his position clearly within the Ministry of Magic.

As for that weekly review, Dumbledore actually barely read it.

He believed what Lu Ke said and knew that the Isabella Strange who was popular in the weekly comments was Bellatrix Lestrange, so he did not think that this was the hope of the wizarding world. .

"So the mysterious man..."

Dumbledore was silent.

This is the biggest difference between Fudge and him now.

Of course, Isabella Strange has done a good thing, which is to make more people believe that Voldemort has returned. No matter how charming this shining witch is, she cannot dispel the fear caused by the mysterious man. The wizard It's always good that the world starts to be more vigilant.
