The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 1050 The Secret Behind the Lies

After the news of ten Death Eaters escaped from Azkaban collectively was spread through the "Daily Prophet", the entire British magic world was completely blown away.

To wizards and wizards in the wizarding world, Death Eaters are almost as feared as Voldemort.

Back then, under Voldemort's reign of terror, the Death Eaters committed countless unforgivable crimes, and they were the most vicious dark wizards.

After the "Daily Prophet" reported on the escape from Azkaban, it aroused dissatisfaction among many people, because the newspaper concealed the truth about the escape of the Death Eaters, and the page that occupied the front page was full of nonsense.

For this reason, many wizards sent "kind" letters of greeting to the editor of the "Daily Prophet" in order to vent their inner anxiety and uneasiness, and more people silently chose to ignore the truth behind this jailbreak incident.

It was a major shock to Hogwarts students who tuned in to Wizard's Watch on Christmas Eve.From the very beginning, the wizard watch station did not lie to deceive the audience, but told them the truth very calmly, but the truth was too cruel, and many people were unwilling to believe it.

Many wizards were eager to hear more useful news from the radio station, and began to try to find out how to subscribe to the "Defense Letters" magazine.

However, the sale of the new issue of "Defense Letters" has not started for a long time, as if some major news is quietly brewing.

The escape from Azkaban was like a blockbuster, disturbing the peace in the wizarding world.However, these turmoil did not have any impact on Albert, and he still spent the last few days of Christmas vacation with his girlfriend.

"You wrote this manuscript?"

Isobel put down the latest issue of "Defense Letters" and looked at Albert with a strange expression.

The recently released "Defense Letters" contains not only an interview with Harry Potter, but also an analysis of a series of strange behaviors of Minister of Magic Fudge.

The reason why Isobel thinks this manuscript is related to Albert is that many points in this manuscript are similar to many things Albert said after the prison break in Azkaban, which makes it hard not to feel related associations.

"That article was written by Rita Skeeter, a woman who is really gifted at this and always catches the reader's eye."

Albert scooped up the steaming chaos and put it into his mouth to taste carefully. The wontons made of sea fish bone soup and sea fish meat were quite delicious.

"Do you want some?" Albert smiled and passed the spoon into the girl's mouth

"Fudge must hate this magazine, which almost pushed him to the forefront." Isobel opened his mouth to hold the spoon that Albert handed over, and shared this bowl of food from the Far East, "I always feel like eating like this Go on, and I'll be a fat man in no time."

Although she has been exercising seriously, she still needs to control her diet as much as possible to avoid causing excessive damage to her body.

"Just control the amount of food and exercise." Albert stretched out his hand and squeezed it, and said with a smile, "It's not good to be too thin."

"The tongue is not the heart."

Isobel raised her hand and poked Albert. She was sure that Albert liked pretty girls, and forget about getting fat.

The two went back to rest after eating.

The "Defense Letters" was randomly spread out and overturned on the table, and it happened to be a report on the analysis of Fudge.

When Albert went back to rest with his girlfriend in his arms, Cornelius Fudge was still busy. His current situation was not very good, especially after the "Secret Behind the Lie" article in "Defense Letters" was released, Make him completely blind.

There is no way, Albert's stabbing was too fatal.

When people were dissatisfied with the fact that the Ministry of Magic concealed the truth about the Death Eaters' escape, the appearance of this article directly caused most people to question Fudge's approach.

Although they were also unwilling to believe the cruel truth that Voldemort had returned, the news of the Death Eaters' jailbreak slapped them in the face like a slap in the face. Maybe they still couldn't wake up those who pretended to be asleep, but they could also give them a hard time. Reminder.

On the day Fudge took over the "Defense Letters" from Percy, he lost his temper in the office again, and even ignored the opposition within the Ministry of Magic, and directly wanted Sirius Black.

If it hadn't been for the Azkaban jailbreak incident that just happened, maybe the big horse Aurors had already been launched to arrest Sirius Black, who disturbed the social order.

However, there was no evidence that Sirius had anything to do with it, and since he spent most of his time at 12 Grimmauld Place, there was nothing Fudge could do about putting Sirius in Azkaban if he wanted to.

"Defense Letters" has become a key topic of discussion, not only the students of Hogwarts, but even the entire British wizarding world knows its existence.

Fudge tried to prevent it from spreading in the wizarding world, but it was not effective, and people always have various ways to read the above two articles.

All of a sudden, there were voices in the wizarding world calling for Fudge to step down.Several people headed by Lucius Malfoy have become the targets of people's suspicion and vigilance.

"What the hell are you doing?" Amelia Bones looked at the wanted criminal in front of her, "And you shouldn't be here."

"Don't worry, no one will guess who I am?" Sirius shrugged and said, "It won't cause you trouble, not to mention that it was Fudge's slander, I am not a wanted criminal, and the Ministry of Magic has no evidence to prove that "Defense Letters" has something to do with me, so I can't be considered guilty just because I bought a copy of "Defense Letters."

"Tell me, what do you want from me? You know I'm busy." Amelia Bones glanced at the "Defense Express" in front of her, picked it up and flipped through it. Although she had heard of this magazine before, Haven't seen the contents yet.

"You should have also noticed the escape from Azkaban." Sirius said unhurriedly: "Do you still think Dumbledore is lying?"

"So, you came to laugh at me?" Amelia Bones raised her eyebrows. "By the way, I never thought Dumbledore was lying."

"No, I just want to remind you that it will be a matter of time before that idiot Fudge is kicked out." Sirius took a sip of the black tea in his cup and said unhurriedly: "And you've already been on Voldemort's On the death blacklist, there are only two people who have not died yet, and you are obviously no longer in it."

"You want to tell me that I'm dying?" Amelia Bones put down the magazine and looked at the young man in front of her.

"Yes, according to the prophecy, you won't survive this summer."

Amelia Bones fell into a short-stop silence.

"I won't run away."

"I can understand your decision, this is just a well-intentioned advice, but you can't change anything?" Sirius sighed, "It's not them, you are too weak, so you are doomed not to win or stop, I can't escape."

"They?" asked Amelia Bones.

"Dumbledore, and...the other one you know." Sirius said softly, "He doesn't like to let others know..."

"Albert Anderson?" Amelia Bones guessed who it was.

"Don't trust the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic. The Ministry of Magic has long been infiltrated into a sieve by Death Eaters." Sirius changed the subject, "Also, you'd better change your residence to a place where the Loyalty Curse is cast, unless you want to die in the middle of the night. At home, don't think that your defense against the dark arts is good, if he comes to the door, you will die."

Before leaving, Sirius did not forget to remind: "If you want to avenge Edgar, you should cherish your own life even more. If you think about it clearly, you can talk to Dumbledore, he will certainly not mind being yours." Secret Keeper."

With that said, Sirius left a photo cut out of a newspaper and left the cold drink shop.

Amelia Bones' eyes fell on the photo on the table, she put away the "Defense Letters" and the photo, paid and left.

"You failed to convince her?"

Tonks withdrew his gaze from Amelia Bones, and looked at the young man in front of him.

"It was impossible to succeed from the very beginning." Sirius looked at the back of the man leaving, and said calmly: "Amelia Bones is a very independent person, and she will not give up because of what we say. And change her decision."

There's a line Sirius didn't say: what happens to Amelia Bones is none of his business.

For him to remind the other party twice, and to do this, he is already very worthy of the love he fought with Edgar back then.

"No wonder the results of his prophecies are difficult to change." Sirius sighed silently in his heart, got up and left with Tonks.

"She really..."

In the hall of No. 12 Grimmauld Place, Kingsley couldn't help but sighed after listening to Sirius, and didn't say much about this matter. The meeting of the Order of the Phoenix is ​​still going on, and they are still surrounding the Death Eaters The aftermath of the jailbreak.

"They're trying to find the master prophet, you know who I'm talking about?" Snape reminded, glancing at the parchment in his hand.

"You don't have to worry about this matter, unless Anderson is willing, no one will be able to find him." Sirius cast a contemptuous look at Snape: "It's a shame that you have taught him for seven years, and I don't know him well." .”

Sirius' confidence in Albert came from the duel competition a while ago. That guy directly arranged the Death Eaters clearly and let him complete his revenge on Peter Pettigrew.

Snape ignored Sirius' contemptuous gaze, and continued: "Broderick Bode's death was caused by the Death Eaters. He is recovering. They were afraid that he would reveal the news after he recovered, so they sent him a basin." Devil's web. One more thing, they're considering whether to use the Imperius Curse to control Fudge."

"They still need to control Fudge. Many people think that Fudge is with them." Tonks' tone was full of sarcasm. She was a loyal supporter of the article "The Secret Behind the Lies", and she was able to hold a high position. There was absolutely no way that Fudge, who could become a minister, was an idiot.

"Because of your Defense Letter." Snape glanced at Sirius.

"Don't worry about this for the time being. Even if Fudge is controlled by Death Eaters, the situation will not be worse." Mad-Eye interrupted: "Is there any other information?"

"The Dark Lord seems to have got some news from August Rookwood. Rookwood was once the silent man of the Department of Mysteries. I don't know exactly what it is, but they seem to have some plans." Snape waved The wand disappeared the parchment in his hand: "One more thing, Dumbledore wants me to teach Potter Occlumency to prevent his mind from being invaded by outsiders."

"You taught him?" Sirius looked disgusted, "I thought Dumbledore would find Anderson."

"Anderson refused." Snape pouted, "I heard that Potter was unable to learn Occlumency, so he refused directly."

"Are you sure you didn't say that?" Sirius fixed his eyes on Snape.

"Well, if nothing else, I need to talk to Potter about this." Snape ignored Sirius.

Not long after the meeting broke up, Snape saw the boy he hated so much.

"The Headmaster asked me to inform you, Potter, that he wants you to learn Occlumency this term."

"Who will teach me?" Harry asked happily, "Anderson?"

"I." Snape raised his eyebrows and said, "Anderson thinks you can't learn, so he refuses to teach you."

"So, Dumbledore said he would find someone to teach me Occlumency...meaning you." Harry's face darkened suddenly.

"I can assure you that I didn't do it voluntarily, because it's not a pleasant job." Snape said blankly, "Once a week, I have private tutoring, and I can't tell anyone, especially Dolores U. Mlitch. It's six o'clock on a Monday evening, in my office, and if anyone asks, just say it's Potions remedial."

"Of course, if you are dissatisfied with this, I suggest you go to the principal."

After speaking, Snape strode away.

"What a nightmare," Harry muttered. "I bet Dumbledore made a bad decision."

"If Snape dares to bully you, tell me." Sirius was annoyed. If he was good at Occlumency, Harry wouldn't have to look for Snot to learn it.

"No, I can handle it." Harry changed the subject, "How are we going to Hogwarts tomorrow, using the Floo?"

"We've booked the Knight Bus, which will take you straight to the gates of Hogwarts."

"It's not a pleasant experience to ride in that thing," Harry muttered.

"I know, but we have no better choice. It's not safe to take the train, and the Ministry of Magic will not allow us to put people on the train." Sirius explained, "The Floo network may also be tampered with, and Fudge will never will allow us to use it."

When Harry was about to tell Ron and Hermione about learning Occlumency with Snape, he heard Fred and George talking to Bill about the price of the Diagon Alley store at the stairs.

"...he thinks that price is too low."

"Don't worry, we can continue to chat with him. There is no need to worry about this matter. Diagon Alley will be very depressed in the future, and it is best to find a few more stores." After finishing speaking, George handed over to Bill Stuffed a small bag of Galleons inside, and under the astonished gaze of the other party, he smiled and said, "Albert always said that Galleons can make people more efficient, and we don't have time for this, so we can only trouble you to worry about it." gone."

"Is this his motto?" Bill said, dumbfounded.

"Are you planning to open a shop?"

"Yes, we are looking for a storefront. We have a hunch that it will be... intense after the holidays and returning to school." Both Fred and George smiled meaningfully, "Harry, you'd better get ready too."

"You mean toads can..."

"Toads can bite too."

"What are you talking about, there is not so much money." Bill planned to return the money bag to George.

"How much do you charge and what do you do? Don't be lazy, Bill." George patted Bill on the shoulder and said.
