Chapter 739： It's all Fudge's pot

"Rufus, what's the matter?"

Fudge put today's "Daily Prophet" in front of the director of the Auror office with a blank face, feeling unspeakably depressed and aggrieved.

He felt very innocent, as if all his faults were counted on him, just because he was the Minister of Magic?

This is very unfair.

Scrimgeour glanced at the headlines of the Daily Prophet, then looked up at Fudge with an expressionless face, and said, "Robazz is still undergoing Auror training. He is young and vigorous. He can't handle things very well. It's easy to work around, and that's why it leads to such a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? It's useless if you tell me misunderstandings." Fudge took a deep breath. "Everyone has a bad sense of the Ministry of Magic Auror. Do you know? This morning, I found my home mailbox was blocked with protest letters. There are at least fifty letters. Can you understand my mood at the time? Now, can you explain to me why the Auror, who is still in training, was sent out to perform the task."

"The Aurors are searching for Blake's whereabouts all the time." Scrimgeour reminded, "We are seriously understaffed. The Ministry of Magic hasn't produced a qualified Auror for a few years. The best way is to keep it still. The trained Auror participates in patrols that are not very important, and let the experienced members take them with them. This will allow them to get a certain amount of exercise and make up for the shortage of manpower."

Fudge was silent.

There is indeed a similar tradition.

"Many people asked us to evacuate the dementors from Hogwarts. Many villagers in Hogsmeade protested to me, thinking that the dementors disturbed their normal lives. As for Dumbledore, he never liked that. Group of Dementors. To be honest, I don't like it either."

"No one likes to deal with those guys." Scrimgeour said.

"Well, I want to hear your advice now, do we need to return the dementors to Azkaban prison? They have caused too much trouble recently."

"All kinds of evidence show that Black is hiding around Hogwarts, and the dementors are the best way to get him out." Scrimgeour obviously disagrees with returning the dementors to Azkaban prison. "I think Black’s threat is much more troublesome than the Dementor. We’d better arrest him as soon as possible, otherwise God knows what Black will do.”

"If they stay near Hogwarts, we'd better not let them cause trouble." Fudge actually didn't want to take the Dementors away. The Dementors were obviously more suitable for hunting down the vicious Black than the Aurors.

However, Fudge really didn't want to take the blame, lest it was his fault every time something went wrong, so this time he brought people to come to the blame.

"The dementors are just hungry. The Ministry of Magic can't provide them with too many human victims, and the hungry dementors can't stand the temptation of food." Scrimgeour had nothing to do with this, because he couldn't. To provide human sacrifices to the dementors without authorization requires the approval of the Minister of Magic's signature.

"Hasn't I already gotten over two hundred people?"

Fudge was very dissatisfied with this answer, this number of human victims was already enough.

"The Dementors have completely drained the happiness of those people." Scrimgeour was also helpless: "I think it's best to provide another batch of human victims and then negotiate with the Dementors."

This tricky job was handed over to the Minister of Magic, and Scrimgeour was only responsible for arresting Black.

While Fudge was trying to solve the Dementor's problem, Rita Skeeter, who was making trouble in the "Daily Prophet", was also brewing her article.

The big sales of "Daily Prophet" made Rita Skeeter sniff some wind directions, and a letter from someone gave her some inspiration.

Rita Skeeter plans to write a report about Dementors.

She believes that those dark creatures that have been "out of control" several times will definitely become a good gimmick, arousing the vigilance and attention of students and parents, and the next issue of "Prophet Daily" will undoubtedly be a big hit.

Facts have proved that Rita Skeeter is really talented in this area. She is very smart. She knows what everyone wants to see and how to cater to everyone's tastes and sell newspapers.

Therefore, Rita Skeeter's report on Dementors was a great success.

The wizarding family with children studying at Hogwarts, after reading the report by Rita Skeeter, began to pay attention to the problem of dementors.

Although most wizards have never been in close contact with those evil dark creatures, nor can they understand the fear they bring to people, now their chance has come.

As long as you go to the Three Broomsticks Bar or Pig's Head Bar in Hogsmeade for a drink, you will have the opportunity to get close to the Dementors.

As long as the wizard who has really come into contact with the dementor will understand what Rita Skeeter wrote in the newspaper: when the dementor approaches, all the good feelings and all the happy memories will be sucked from you. Only the worst memories of your life are left in your mind.

Suddenly, more wizards went to Hogsmeade to drink, and when people truly felt the terrible dementors, they became more firmly resistant to Fudge's absurd practices.

After seeing the report there, Fudge was very annoyed, and angrily tore the newspaper to pieces.

On the second day of that report, many wizards who had personally experienced the evil of Dementors wrote letters to Fudge, asking him to remove the Dementors around Hogwarts, so as to prevent those monsters from losing control again and causing irreparable damage. Bad results.

Even if Fudge repeatedly claimed that Black was hiding around Hogwarts, leaving the Dementors to patrol there was solely for the safety of Hogsmeade’s villagers and Hogwarts students, and repeatedly stressed that the Ministry of Magic has been strengthened. Regarding the management of Dementors, UU Reading will not let the previous cases happen again, but many people still question Fudge's decision.

Originally, Fudge wanted to throw the pot to Scrimgeour. It was the Auror of the Ministry of Magic who dealt with the Dementor. Scrimgeour, the Auror's office director, should be responsible for this matter.

However, the dumping of the pot was still unsuccessful, as if everyone looked for Fudge, and if something happened, it was deemed Fudge's problem.

If Albert knew about this, he would have given Fudge the title of "King in the Pot".

There are not many wizards in the British magic world who know who the director of the Auror’s office is, but basically everyone knows that their Minister of Magic is named Cornelius Fudge. Now that the Ministry of Magic has a big problem, it must be the responsibility of the Minister of Magic. .

In fact, they were not wrong. It was indeed Fudge’s order to let the Dementors go to Hogsmeade. He knew that Black’s target was Potter, and he naturally needed to protect the savior’s safety. By the way, he was able to catch Black. For the first time, asked the Dementor to give him a kiss to complete the agreement with Malfoy.

However, Fudge never thought that this matter would cause so much trouble for himself.
