Hogwarts: I'm Cousin Harry

Chapter 338 332. I am not discussing this matter with you
The official's hand holding the note was shaking, and his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.

There was only one sentence on the note.

"A vacation."

Below this sentence is written the other person's name.

Grindelwald
Maybe wizards in other places don't know the name Grindelwald, but as wizards in Austria, they almost grew up hearing stories about this name, and the impact he brought to this land is really great.

Voldemort and the Dark Lord are not as effective in Austria as Grindelwald.

He recognized the handwriting, and it was indeed that person's handwriting, but he should be locked up in the deepest part of the tower now. There were countless magic mechanisms in the tower, and there were Aurors patrolling the outside. They were strictly guarded and controlled at all levels. Not even a fly or a mosquito can fly out. How did he do it? How is it possible?
Has he come out?

In a daze, he seemed to think of a certain legend. Grindelwald was not imprisoned, but was voluntarily imprisoned in a tower, and he could come out at any time if he wanted.

Then he thought about the records about Grindelwald in the Ministry of Magic documents.
Grindelwald has the blood of a prophet and has an eye that can see into the future.

At that time, he still found it incredible.
But now it was indeed happening, right before his eyes.

The simple sentence on the note seemed to have already known the Ministry of Magic's plan, and it was full of threats.

The Ministry of Magic official seemed to see an old wizard with a majestic face and gray hair standing in front of him, saying in an unquestionable tone: I am not discussing this matter with you, I am just informing you.

The tremendous pressure made him breathless.

This matter is no longer something he can handle. He must report this matter as soon as possible. It is really shocking.

"Mr. Dumbledore, I have something urgent that I need to report to the leadership. Please wait a moment."

The Ministry official stood up quickly from his chair.

"He must have written something."

Although he didn't see the content of the note, the mature Dumbledore still didn't know what the other party must have done, otherwise he wouldn't be so frightened.

The official was stunned when he heard Dumbledore's words. Dumbledore knew that he had guessed correctly, so he said with relief: "Don't worry, he didn't come out. He should have passed the news through some other method."

"He's the best at this. He's always been like this."

This tone, as if talking about an old friend, reminded the Ministry of Magic official that Grindelwald was defeated by Dumbledore.

"Mr. Dumbledore, I need your help."

He said as if grasping at straws.

"For a holiday, these are the only students who go in and leave before school starts."

Dumbledore said that the time he wanted was exactly the same as Grindelwald's, as if it had been agreed upon long ago.

In fact, the two have not seen each other for decades, and have not even exchanged letters.

Theoretically, Grindelwald should not know that he brought Dudley and the others here.

"You can tell the new Minister of Magic, I think he will agree."

The Ministry official left to find his superiors.

An hour later he came with 'good news'.

'A holiday is fine, but you have to leave before term starts, and Dumbledore has to stay in the tower to prevent that dangerous person from doing anything dangerous. '

Dumbledore was silent for a while. Judging from his micro-expression, he didn't want to enter that place, but he still agreed. "let's go."

In the deepest part of the Austrian forest, at the junction between the peaks, stands a tall watchtower - Nurmengard Tower, or it is more appropriate to call it Nurmengard Castle.

The famous dark wizard Grindelwald in the wizarding world is imprisoned here.

Calling him imprisoned is just a flattering statement from the Austrian Ministry of Magic, which he claims to the outside world. Strictly speaking, he only lives here and no longer goes out. It should be called 'self-imprisonment'.

He was the only one in the whole prison.

Just like Dumbledore commented in the original work, if he wanted to, even if he was imprisoned in Azkaban, he could escape from prison as easily as leaving his own back garden.

Grindelwald is a wizard of his own level.

As long as they don't want to, there is no one and no place to lock them up.

Moreover, this castle was once the base built by Grindelwald, the place where he started. He once gathered a large number of wizards who had the same dream as him in this castle, and continued to spread his ideas in Europe and even the United States. Ideal, trying to subvert the entire world.

If Dumbledore hadn't resolutely stood on the opposite side, causing the plan to fail, perhaps the entire wizarding world would have become completely different.

"It's a bit eerie, just like the place where some of the villains described in novels live."

Dudley commented as he looked at the gloomy clouds over the castle.

Led by the Austrian Aurors, they arrived at the castle gate.

"Mr. Dumbledore, he is in the deepest part of the castle."

After saying that, the Aurors stood at the door with no intention of continuing to guide them.

"You're not taking us in?" Harry asked in surprise.

Whose jailer takes someone to the prison without taking them halfway?
I didn't even see the cells.

The Auror said seriously: "We are rejected by this castle and cannot move forward."

Harry:?
Being rejected by the castle must be a bullshit excuse, and being rejected by Grindelwald is the truth. However, judging from the normal expressions of the Aurors without any embarrassment, there is a high probability that these Aurors even believed this statement.

The door of the castle was slowly pushed open, and countless dust fell. It was obvious that no one had come in for a long time.

Not long after entering the castle, I heard Ron muttering: "There should be vampires in this kind of castle."

"You should read less novels, Luo Bohu."

Draco looked at him speechlessly: "This is the place where the dark wizard Grindelwald is imprisoned. How can there be such a thing as a vampire?"

Even if it existed before, it was gone the moment the other person moved in.

How could Malfoy, as a pure-blood wizard, not know that the famous dark wizard Grindelwald, and even his grandfather Abraxas Malfoy, might have directly or indirectly participated in one of Grindelwald's gatherings.

In fact, it's not surprising that Ron feels this way. It's obviously noon now, but because of the dark clouds in the sky, looking at the castle has the illusion that it's dusk. If there are a few more red ones on the nearby branches, The crow with squawking eyes gives people the feeling of walking into a horror house.

"Since everyone thinks it's dark."

Dudley said as he put his hand into his pocket and fumbled around inside.
