"Don't come here, Percy!" Ivan warned him, seeing Percy's impatient look.
Elaine didn't hide behind Ivan either, she had already taken out her wand and looked at Percy fiercely...
Harry and Hermione also approached Ivan, taking out their wands.
Professor McGonagall pursed her lips even tighter. She and Kingsley, who was not far away, looked at each other, both of them looked anxious.
"It seems to be revealing, doesn't it?!" Dumbledore said happily, looking at the picture in front of him with interest.
"Dumbledore, what do you mean?"
"I mean you seem to have discovered who Miss Slytherin is!" said Dumbledore.
"What?!" Fudge was stunned for a moment, and then said ecstatically, "You mean, she's really a vampire!"
"I think so, I need to give you a grand introduction, she is Elaine Slytherin, a direct descendant of Salazar Slytherin, one of the founders of Hogwarts!" said Dumbledore, as if to say A small, nonchalant thing.
The portraits on the wall erupted into discussions again, especially the early principals who were very excited.
"She, he is a descendant of Slytherin, no, I mean, she is really a vampire!"
"That's right!" Dumbledore nodded.
Ivan held Elaine and motioned her not to be impulsive, and waited for Dumbledore to finish speaking before doing anything.
"God, since she's a vampire, and since she's here, it means that you really planned the Death Eaters escape." Fudge looked at Elaine, and then hurriedly turned his head to look at Dumbledore, his His chest was rising and falling, and his breathing became more and more rapid.
"I suppose not, but it doesn't matter, does it?" said Dumbledore.
"It really doesn't matter!" Fudge shouted excitedly, shaking his fist vigorously, "These things are enough to explain everything, I never thought, Dumbledore, you are really connected with vampires, they are all wanted by the Ministry of Magic This proves that you are indeed plotting against me, plotting to overthrow the Ministry of Magic."
"Connelly, to be honest, your thinking is really ridiculous. I have only opposed one person from the beginning to the end, and it must not be you!" Dumbledore said, "If necessary, I can reiterate myself over and over again. position!"
"That's enough, Dumbledore!" Fudge shouted excitedly, "Pull up your tricks, I don't want to hear your weird talks, I have already seen everything, Lucius said nothing Wrong, I'm coming over tonight..."
"Oh, are you trying to come and arrest me?" said Dumbledore gently.
"That's right!" said Fudge, now trembling with joy, "Dumbledore, I'm going to arrest you, and you're going to be taken to the Ministry of Magic where you'll be formally charged and sent to Azka Ban awaits trial, and life imprisonment awaits you."
"Well, it does sound good!" said Dumbledore softly.
"Dumbledore, if you have anything to say, you can go to Azkaban, you can explain to the Wizengamot why you took a vampire in Hogwarts, and you can explain to the dementors how you helped those eating vampires. Dead Apostle escaped. Weasley, have you written this down?"
"Yes, sir, I think so, sir!" said Percy eagerly, ink splattering his nose as he took notes so rapidly.
"Yes, but I think we may have encountered a small difficulty before that," said Dumbledore.
"Difficulty?" said Fudge, his voice still shaking with joy. "I don't see any difficulty, Dumbledore!"
"But..." said Dumbledore apologetically, "I'm afraid I saw it."
"Oh, really?"
"Well, let's not talk about whether your ridiculous accusations can be established. Before that, you seem to have an illusion that I will. How do you say that? Stand still. I'm afraid I won't stand still, Kangnai Leigh, of course I can get out, I don't want to be sent to Azkaban right now, and I don't want to be tried by the Wizengamot, even if I'm not guilty, what a waste of time, frankly In other words, I remember that I still have a lot of things to do, and I would rather do those things than waste time here with you."
Fudge stared at Dumbledore with a silly expression on his face, as if he had been suddenly beaten.
He couldn't believe that such a thing had happened, he made a soft choked sound, turned his head and looked at Percy, who was also stupid and unresponsive beside him, and Kingsley and the man who was standing by the door A man with short gray hair, Aurordo Lux!
Dawlish nodded resolutely at Fudge, and took a few steps away from the wall, one of his hands carelessly reaching into his pocket.
Chapter 1063
"Don't be a fool, Dawlish!" said Dumbledore kindly, "I'm sure you're an excellent Auror, well, I remember your NEWTs exams seemed to be at Distinction, but you're not going to succeed if you want to , oh, arrest me violently, and I'll have to be rude to you, and I really don't want to do that."
Dawlish blinked comically. He looked at Dumbledore, who was so calm that he didn't even take out his wand, and then looked back at Fudge, but this time it seemed that he hoped to get instructions on what to do next.
"So!" Fudge sneered and returned to normal, "Dumbledore, you're going to resist, you're going to deal with Dawlish, Shacklebolt, Weasley and me alone, aren't you, Dumbledore?"
"My God, of course not!" laughed Dumbledore, "unless you're stupid enough to make me do it."
"He's not alone!" said Professor McGonagall loudly, thrusting a hand into his robes.
"Yes, we also trust Professor Dumbledore!" Harry also pulled out his wand.
All of a sudden, everyone in the office pulled out their wands, and the atmosphere in the air was extremely tense, with swords on the verge of breaking out.
Ai Wen thought about it, didn't move, they don't need to take action, anyway, the principal will solve all this.
"I'm alone, Minerva, and Hogwarts needs you!" said Dumbledore sternly. "And you, especially you, Harry, don't be a fool."
"Enough nonsense!" said Fudge, drawing his wand. "Dawlish! Shacklebolt! Get him!"
In the next second, a silver flash swirled in the room.
With a loud bang like the sound of a cannon, the floor shook.
Ivan hurriedly hugged Hermione and Elaine and lay down, and Professor McGonagall also came over to block them.
Immediately afterwards, a second silver flash exploded.
Several portraits shouted, Fawkes screamed, and dust filled the air.
Through the thick dust, Ivan saw Dumbledore jumping out from behind the desk. In the dimness, Fudge fell to the ground with a bang, there was a scream, then a bang, and then came the sound of broken glass. The sound of cracking, the sound of shuffling around desperately.
There was another groan, followed by a moment of silence.
Ivan got up, and under him were Hermione and Elaine, who turned over with difficulty.
Harry was protected by Professor McGonagall, and the dust floating in the air fell gently on them.
"what happened?"
"everything is over!"
In the diffuse dust, a very tall figure was walking towards them.
"Are you all right?" Dumbledore asked.
"It's okay!" said Professor McGonagall, and she stood up and pulled up Ivan, Harry, Hermione and Elaine.
The dust was gradually dissipating, and the incomplete office loomed: Dumbledore's desk was turned upside down, the long and thin desk was knocked over to the floor, and the silverware on the desk was also broken , Fudge, Kingsley, and Dawlish lay motionless on the floor, making no sound at all.
Phoenix Fawkes flew in great circles above their heads, whining softly.
"It's a pity that I have to enchant Kingsley, otherwise it will look too suspicious!" Dumbledore whispered, "Well, we need to hurry up, they will wake up soon, it is best not to let them Know we have time to talk. You have to act like the time hasn't changed, like they just got knocked to the ground and they won't remember."
"Where are you going, Dumbledore?" whispered Professor McGonagall. "Grimmauld Place?"
"Go there and meet!" Dumbledore said, "Then, we still have some things to deal with in Norway, Elaine, if possible, I hope you can leave with me. Well, your uncle's injury has recovered Now, we need to solve a little trouble left by your family, and find out some secrets by the way."
"Professor, we're going too!" Aiwen said, "We just defeated Umbridge in the Forbidden Forest and handed him over to Hagrid's younger brother Gropp to guard him. If Fudge asks, we can't do anything about it." explanation, and the plan I asked Sirius to tell you..."
"Oh, yes!" Dumbledore said, "You can come with me, Ivan, and you can help me this time."
"And Hermione!" Ivan added, "She participated in the attack on Umbridge, and she can't stay here!"
"And me!" Harry said hastily.
"No, Harry, you stay!" Dumbledore said eagerly, still not looking into Harry's eyes, "Listen to me, the most important thing right now is Occlumency, you must do your best to learn this magic, Do you understand my words? Master it, do exactly what Professor Snape tells you to do, and practice Occlumency, especially before going to bed every night, so that you can close your own mind and stop having nightmares, You must promise me!"
"Professor, I..."
The man called Dawlish was moving, and Dumbledore took Harry's wrist.
"Remember, close your brain!"
When Dumbledore's fingers touched Harry's skin, there was a sudden sharp pain in the scar on his forehead.
He felt the dreadful feeling again, the desire to attack Dumbledore.
"You'll see," whispered Dumbledore. "Come on, you three, catch me!"
Fox circled around the office, then flew low over Dumbledore.
Ivan hurriedly held Dumbledore's extended left hand, while Hermione and Elaine grabbed him.
Dumbledore held up one hand and tightly grasped the phoenix's long golden tail, and with a flash of flame, the four of them disappeared.
Only Professor McGonagall and poor Harry were left in the office, and he watched helplessly what happened before him.
The hatred for Dumbledore deep in his heart has not disappeared, and he is not sure if it is stronger!
"Get down, Potter!" whispered Professor McGonagall.
"Where is he?" Fudge yelled after a few seconds, struggling to get up from the floor. "Where is he?"
"I don't know!" Kingsley said loudly and jumped up, "He took those three children!"
"He Apparated!"
"No, he can't Apparate! You can't do that in school!"
"Stairs!" Dawlish yelled, and he flung himself at the door, twisting it open and disappearing.
Kingsley and Percy followed closely behind him. Fudge hesitated for a moment, then moved slowly, brushing the dust off his chest, and there was an uncomfortable silence for a while.
"Hmph, Minerva," said Fudge viciously, smoothing out a torn shirt sleeve, "I think your friend Dumbledore is screwed this time."
"You think so?" said Professor McGonagall contemptuously.
Fudge didn't seem to hear what she said, looking around at the destroyed office.
Several portraits hissed disapprovingly at him, and one or two even made rude gestures.
"You'd better take Potter to bed!" said Fudge, looking back at Professor McGonagall, and nodding at Harry dismissively, "I'm going to wait here for them to come back, and where is Dolores going?" I need her to fully take over the school in the shortest possible time, everything is over, the Ministry of Magic has won."
Chapter 1064 Plan
What the Ministry of Magic ushered in was not a victory, but the beginning of a complete defeat.
Fudge's idea is doomed to be impossible to realize, he can't find Umbridge who is locked in the giant's cave.
And he would soon find out that Hogwarts would be a mess after Dumbledore was thrown out.
An unstable Hogwarts would be a big problem for the Ministry of Magic, as Fudge would soon find out.
Looking at the secretly proud Fudge, Professor McGonagall led Harry towards the door without saying anything.
As the door closed behind them, Harry heard Phineas Nigellus' voice.
"You know, Minister, I disagree with Dumbledore on many issues, but you can't deny that he has a lot of personality!"
On the other hand, Ai Wen only felt the golden flames flashing in front of his eyes, and they came to Grimmauld Square...
It wasn't the Portkey, nor Apparition, this time he was sure that the Phoenix held the power to cross space.
With Fox's help, they crossed the space from Hogwarts to 12 Grimmauld Place.
This kind of spatial leap is a unique magical power. From a sensory point of view, it feels much better than Apparition and Portkey.
Not to mention, this kind of magic is outside the Hogwarts defense system.
This means that as long as there is Fawkes, Dumbledore can come and go anywhere freely, ignoring the protective magic in it.
From this point of view, the phoenix is really a practical pet, much better than a cat. It can't do anything except be cute and lick.
"It's unbelievable that we've just left Hogwarts!" gasped Hermione, looking around.
They were standing in the dark kitchen of the Black family's ancestral home, before a long wooden dining table with scattered chairs.
Not far away, the fire in the fireplace went out!
There was only a little light in the house, the surroundings were quiet, there was no sound at all, and Sirius and Klich didn't know where they were.
Phoenix Fox uttered a cry, and flew to the top of the serpentine chandelier. The chandelier swayed and made a creaking sound.
"Professor, what should we do now?"
"Well, where's my uncle?" Elaine also asked, "You just said that his injury has healed!"
"Yes, but I need to bring him back!" Dumbledore said, "This house is safe, you stay here and don't go anywhere, Sirius will be back in a while, then Fudge and the Ministry of Magic will definitely will hunt us frantically."
There was no doubt about that, and within a few hours they would be on the Ministry's most wanted list.
Tomorrow morning, people will know from the newspapers that Dumbledore and the vampires planned the Death Eater escape and defected from Hogwarts.
He also took away three students, Elaine will definitely be wanted, and Ivan and Hermione will also become wanted criminals.
For most people, this is probably the most unbelievable thing, just like the sun rising from the west.
As the greatest white wizard in the world, and also the most powerful wizard at the moment, Dumbledore suddenly became an evil dark wizard, contacting vampires and rescuing Death Eaters. In the entire magic world, except for idiots like Fudge, there is probably no one One would believe it, and no one would be delighted to see Dumbledore's true colors.
On the contrary, it would be the beginning of chaos and panic in the Ministry.
