Homecoming from Hogwarts

Chapter 748 Calmness and Confusion

"This is a complete slander, Blaine!"

Umbridge screamed,

"Check the packages mailed by residents. Oh, is this what you suggest, Brian? It's ridiculous. The Ministry of Magic has no right to do this!"

"Then the Legislative Department should legislate to grant this right!"

Amosta shouted coldly,

"Have you considered that if someone mails contraband and black magic props through the post office, will you accept them all and help the criminals complete their crimes?"

Umbridge was breathless and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

This was indeed an irrefutable omission. Not to mention Connelly, even Amelia frowned for a moment. She thought thoughtfully,

"You're right, Amosta. Maybe, we really should introduce relevant laws to regulate the mailing process and package security--"

"Since the fall of You-Know-Who, the Ministry of Magic has become negligent, thinking that the world is peaceful--"

"We are discussing this!"

"But, Minister——"

Amosta raised an eyebrow at Amelia and spoke sharply.

Fudge said excitedly,

"Consider recruiting more strikers to protect the safety of the people. In my opinion, this matter must be accelerated. Amelia, we must push for the passage of this resolution as soon as possible and organize the team before Easter!"

"This medicine has a strong curbing effect on the curse, Amosta—"

Boom, boom——

There was a knock on the office door, and Severus walked in with a cup of steaming golden liquid.

After giving Hermione the medicine, Severus said softly,

"But there is no way to get rid of her weakness. You'd better solve Granger's curse within half a month-"

"This proposal is still open."

"Oh, that's exactly what we meant to do, Amosta!"

Amelia secretly glanced at Amosta, who had a neutral expression. If she hadn't known about him and Dumbledore, she would have almost thought that Granger was attacked on his own initiative. .

When they left, there were only Dumbledore and Amostar here. Now, several senior officials from the Ministry of Magic had arrived. It didn't take much effort for Severus to sense the tense atmosphere in this office. However, he ignored it at all and went directly to Hermione's bedside with the potion in hand.

It has to be said that Amosta Brain was indeed a good teller. The proposal to add a team of hitters caused great controversy in the ministry because it would seize funds for multiple construction projects. After many discussions, To no avail, I didn’t expect that Amosta would use this terrorist incident to easily push for a resolution.

"I pay Amelia's offer, Dolores—"

Fudge originally planned to say hello to Severus, but seeing that he was only concentrating on giving medicine to the unfortunate little witch and not even looking at them, he had no choice but to cough a few times in embarrassment and look at Hermione with concern. Min's face.

Dumbledore finally came out from behind his desk.

"When will Miss Granger come to her senses, Severus?"

Fudge immediately gave Umbridge a warning look, telling her to shut up.

Faced with such a fierce confrontation, Fudge stood there wiping his temples, looking at a loss. He kept racking his brains to think of how to eliminate the strong dissatisfaction of Amostar and Dumbledore, and Ami The reminder look in Leah's hand made him suddenly enlightened.

Amelia's heart moved slightly and she pointed at Fudge.

Umbridge was stunned for several seconds before coming back to her senses.

"But in fact, there is more than just a mysterious dark wizard. The Ministry of Magic needs to be responsible for the safety of all aspects of people's lives. You must pay attention to it and send more manpower to all aspects related to people's safety."

"It's hard to say, Headmaster Dumbledore," Severus shook his head, "but she overdrawn her magic before, and I guess Miss Granger will be in a coma for a day or two -"

"Dumbledore, Amosta—"

Amelia said worriedly,

"Look, do you need to transfer Miss Hermione Granger to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries? After all, they are more professional in treating magical injuries and have sufficient manpower. There is no need to worry about her safety. During her hospitalization, , I can send Aurors for protection——"

"Oh, that's a great idea!"

Fudge glanced at Amelia with admiration and said happily,

"Moreover, the Ministry of Magic can bear all the costs of her treatment!" Amosta observed the situation in Hermione's body. When Severus's potion began to take effect, wisps of active golden magic quickly seeped into it. He took the cursed arm in Hermione's body and built a tight defense. After he withdrew the magic that suppressed the curse, the dark cloud tried to touch the curse, but was burned and shrunk like a natural enemy. return.

Meanwhile, the nourishing ingredients in the potion were restoring Hermione's strength, and her breathing was becoming easier.

If Amosta intends to stay at Hogwarts and let the Ministry of Magic handle the matter, then he will definitely keep Hermione by his side, but since he is prepared to investigate it himself, then let Hermione briefly It was a good thing to be away from his classmates at Hogwarts. After thinking about it, Amosta looked at Dumbledore.

"I agree with you, Amosta -" Dumbledore breathed heavily and did not raise any objections.

Now, it's time to discuss the reasons behind Hermione's attack.

On Hermione's bedside were the fan letters she had received along with the packages. Amelia walked over, picked up a few, and looked through them with a solemn expression.

"These are letters from wizards who favor Miss Granger--"

After a moment, Amelia looked away from the letter.

"I know that even in the ministry, there are some people who highly praised Miss Granger's performance in the first event of the competition. And accordingly, Amosta, Dumbledore, and Miss Granger were attacked. I think one A Muggle-born student at school is unlikely to provoke a dark wizard. Let's see if this is one of the other three warriors. An extreme fan."

Amosta knew that what Amelia really wanted to say was that the three warriors who currently had an obvious conflict of interest with Hermione were the other three warriors, and whether the attack on Hermione was related to them.

Amosta believed that Cedric and Fleur would not do such a thing, but Krum, or at least Karkaroff behind him, no one dared to vouch for him.

"This matter needs to be known after investigation, Amelia, there is no point in blind speculation——"

Amosta didn't want to pretend that he knew everything. This incident was indeed the most unprepared for him in the past two years since he returned to Hogwarts. Even now, he has no reliable guesses.

The three people from the Ministry of Magic left.

Cornelius Fudge looked embarrassed when he left the fireplace. He was even a little impatient to leave Hogwarts. Maybe he would be lucky that Amosta Blaine didn't pester him, but when he came to his senses, he would definitely feel that this was a visit full of shame.

Before Dolores Umbridge walked into the fireplace, she glanced at Amosta with a sinister look. For her, this trip was a heavy loss.

Due to the situation, she had no choice but to cut off her wrist, but she kept this matter firmly in mind. As long as there was a chance, she would make Brian pay the price!

The launch of the project to increase the team of strikers will undoubtedly squeeze out the interests that originally belonged to her, and Amosta confirmed that Hermione Granger was attacked, and the Department of Magical Transportation in her name needs to bear some responsibility. In order to provide According to Hogwarts, she could only separate the powers of the Transportation Department from herself as soon as possible.

"I understand your anger very well, Albus, Amosta—"

When Amelia was the only one left, she said more like a friend,

"But we all know we're going to face a bigger threat so--"

Amelia didn't say any more, but the meaning she wanted to express was already obvious. She didn't want this matter to escalate.

Dumbledore used Fawkes to escort Hermione to St. Mungo's. Amosta and Severus were the only ones left in the principal's office where we were walking around just now.

At noon, the sun is shining high.

Amosta, standing by the small window, saw Madam Maxime walking towards the castle with her students, and the ghost ship by the black lake. At almost the same time, Karkaroff also stepped off the ship.

This is unlikely to be a coincidence. Probably, they were all reported at about the same time.

Amosta looked at the two groups of people walking in a hurry, his face expressionless.

"Calm down, Amosta—"

Severus knew Amosta very well. He knew that although he remained calm, his heart was actually filled with anger. Severus frowned and looked at Amosta's side face and said.

"I'm calm——"

Amosta tilted his cheek, his calm tone coupled with a faint smile revealed a murderous intention that made Severus' heart skip a beat.

"I'm just confused. Confused. Did the person who did this not consider the consequences? Or is he not afraid of Hogwarts' revenge?"
