Hogwarts: I Became the Third Dark Lord

Rufus' words made Dumbledore pause, and he seemed to be frozen in place, but Rufus just looked at Dumbledore and Wentworth quietly, and the scene was silent for a while.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the dense forest not far away.

The rustling sound attracted the attention of all the wizards present. Rufus, Dumbledore, and Wentworth also looked in the direction of the sound at the same time, while the other Aurors even raised their hands. He lifted the wand in his hand and pointed in the direction of the sound.

Suddenly, with a "pop", a bright white light flashed, which was particularly dazzling in the dark night. Then, a woman with exaggerated curly hair was holding a notebook and a feather in her hand. Pen, walked out of the dense forest, followed by a man with a camera hanging around his neck.

Seeing the woman in front of him, a trace of displeasure flashed across Rufus' face, and Dumbledore's expression seemed a little gloomy.

"Wow, I didn't expect to meet so many great people here at this late hour. I don't know, Mr. Rufus, our new director of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic, and Mr. Dumbledore, our headmaster of Hogwarts, What are you doing here so late?"

I saw the woman with glasses glanced at Rufus and Dumbledore with a curious look, and while she was talking, Wentworth noticed in surprise that the feather that the woman held in her hand just now The pen has automatically started writing in the notebook in his hand.

Seeing this amazing scene, a name suddenly appeared in Wentworth's mind——Rita Skeeter.

And when the woman's eyes swept over Rufus and Dumbledore and landed on Wentworth next to Dumbledore, Wentworth noticed that she seemed to have discovered something Like something, his eyes lit up.

Then, the woman yanked the camera from the hand of the man behind her, and took several consecutive shots at Wentworth and Dumbledore. The dazzling flash even forced Wentworth to turn around quickly , narrowed his eyes.

"Rita Skeeter? What are you doing here? The Ministry of Magic has a mission here, so please leave!"

Seeing this scene, Dumbledore hadn't spoken yet, but Rufus stepped forward first and said to Rita Skeeter.

And hearing Rufus' name for the woman, Wentworth knew that he guessed right, and at the same time said badly in his heart.

Sure enough, Rita Skeeter didn't seem to be afraid of Rufus, the director of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic. Faced with his doubts and inquiries, Rita Skeeter didn't even respond, but instead All eyes were on Dumbledore and Wentworth.

I saw Rita Skeeter trotting to Wentworth's side, and asked with a smile:

"I know you, son, you are a student of Hogwarts. Not long ago, Dumbledore just took you to watch the final of the Quidditch World Cup! Then the question comes, there are so many students in Hogwarts, why Dumbledore took you to watch the World Cup final alone? Is there any special relationship between you and Dumbledore?"

Hearing Rita Skeeter's inquiry, Wentworth showed a ignorant expression, and responded:

"Auntie, I don't know what you mean?"

Rita Skeeter's face twitched when she heard Wentworth's name, she gritted her teeth and said:

"Aunt?!"

At this moment, Dumbledore took a step forward, stood in front of Wentworth, stared at Rita Skeeter, and said in a somewhat heavy tone:

"Rita, I advise you to stay away from my students!"

It seems that this kind of scene has been seen too often, but Rita Skeeter didn't seem to care at all. Instead, she looked at Dumbledore, showed a somewhat contrived smile, and said with something to say:

"of course can,

Headmaster Dumbledore, then, can you tell me, what are you doing when you show up here with a Hogwarts student at such a late hour and make such a big commotion? "

Facing Rita Skeeter's inquiry, Dumbledore frowned and responded:

"I don't seem to need to explain to you, my whereabouts?"

After listening to Dumbledore's words, Rita Skeeter raised her eyebrows and said in an exaggerated tone:

"So, Principal Dumbledore, what he did with a student in the jungle late at night is a secret? What an unbelievable answer! I think readers will be very happy. curious!"

Hearing Rita Skeeter's words, Wentworth finally felt why Hermione and others hated the woman in front of him so much in the original book.

However, just when Wentworth was about to speak, Dumbledore grabbed Wentworth, and then turned to Rufus and said:

"Rufus, I'm taking Wentworth back to Hogwarts first. If there is any new news, please let me know if it is convenient for you."

Rufus quickly responded:

"Of course, Principal Dumbledore. In addition, if I need your assistance in the investigation, please cooperate."

Dumbledore nodded slowly upon hearing this.

Rita Skeeter, who was on the side, showed great interest when she heard the conversation between the two, perhaps because she knew that she would not get any valuable information from Dumbledore, or maybe it was Dumbledore's Her identity made her a little afraid.

Rita Skeeter turned her attention to Rufus again.

But Rufus didn't seem to have the slightest intention to communicate with Rita Skeeter, and went straight to the side, directing the surrounding Aurors to work on the side.

And taking advantage of Rita Skeeter's attention on Rufus, Dumbledore did not hesitate to take Wentworth and the apparition back to Hogwarts.

When Wentworth, led by Dumbledore, returned to the gate of Hogwarts Castle, he immediately saw Ilona waiting here.

"Professor Irona, who is this?"

Seeing that Ilona had been standing in the cold wind for an unknown amount of time, Wentworth was also a little touched for a moment and didn't know what to say.

And Ilona also rushed towards Wentworth. After carefully looking at Wentworth and making sure that Wentworth was unharmed, Ilona let out a long sigh of relief.

"As I said, Professor Ilona, ​​I will keep Wentworth safe."

Dumbledore said aside.

As for Ilona, ​​the anger in her heart was obviously still there, and she said in a stiff tone:

"Principal Dumbledore, I have never doubted your strength, but the lives of my students are very precious, and I don't want to see them suffer any harm!"

Hearing Ilona's words, Dumbledore was noncommittal, just pushed Wentworth lightly, and said:

"Go back to your dorm, Wentworth, I think your friends are worrying about that for you!"
