Chapter 310 The Art of Blackmail and Dealing
"Yes, Mr. Dumbledore, please advise your students to trust the Ministry of Magic. We will definitely deal with the relevant personnel seriously and give the public a satisfactory answer!"
Fudge wiped the cold sweat on his temples and showed a somewhat thankful expression.
"I hope you can do it. Moreover, if I am not stupid now, it seems that the Ministry of Magic still owes Mr. Chirol a Medal of Merlin in recognition of his protection of the entire school during the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets incident. teachers and students.”
Dumbledore reminded from the side.
"Ah, yes, please forgive me. The Knockturn Alley incident has been too serious recently. Everyone in the Ministry of Magic has been extremely busy and forgot about the awards. I will do it as soon as I get back."
Fudge said with a forced smile.
"Furthermore, I would like to assure all the major pure-blood families that the Ministry of Magic will do its best to maintain the security of Diagon Alley. Everyone can continue to do business with confidence. There is no need to close the store."
"I hope you can really do this, Secretary Fudge. I just hope that the next time I see you, you are the minister and not the former minister."
Zhang Qi snorted from his nose.
This time he was really unhappy, but since Dumbledore had signaled himself to take a step back, he should give the old man a little face.
"Yes, yes, the Ministry of Magic will soon pay you and Miss Greengrass a compensation in the Gringotts Wizarding Bank account. I hope you can forgive the inappropriate behavior of the employees of the Ministry of Magic."
Fudge finally breathed out of his lungs at this time. He was almost scared to death just now.
Although Fudge was stupid, he also knew that the two people in front of him could definitely kill him directly.
Although pure-blood families usually don't use such violent methods, this is not necessarily the case when they are so humiliated.
If the other party used the rising anger to give him a green light, he might just die inexplicably.
That would be too miserable.
"Well, the Assistant Minister just said that this operation was carried out with your approval, Minister."
Daphne stood aside and said calmly.
"No, I just asked to get in the car to check the suspect. Mr. Scrimgeour was probably coerced by her order."
Fudge hurriedly said from the side.
"We were very dissatisfied with your handling of the Assistant Minister last time. I hope this time, I can see her get out of the Ministry of Magic instead of returning to work after a few months of paid leave"!
Zhang Qi said abruptly when Fuji was about to step out of the carriage.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zirol, we will give you a satisfactory result. Also, your Medal of Merlin award ceremony will be held in a few days, so don't forget to attend the ceremony."
Fudge forced out a smile for the last time, and then ran out of the car as if he was running away.
“Minister Fudge”…
Umbridge stood outside the carriage, covering her face that was still bleeding, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Okay, I underestimated their reaction. You go to St. Mungo's Magic Hospital for treatment first, then report to the centaur office and stay there for a while."
Fudge wiped his forehead with lingering fear.
"You are mine, and I will not kick you away, so stay quietly in the centaur's office for half a year and don't cause any trouble for me again"!
Fudge waved his hand distractedly.
"Okay, Minister".
Umbridge breathed a sigh of relief before turning towards another group of Ministry employees.
"Well, if there was only Dumbledore, today's things would be much simpler, but who would have thought that he could actually anger that madman?"
Fudge stood there muttering to himself, then shook his head happily.
………………
"Sooner or later I will kill him."
When Fuji walked out of the carriage, Zhang Qi said with an angry look on his face.
"Children, don't always think about those things."
As Dumbledore spoke, he waved his wand to clean up the scattered glass shards in the carriage.
"Ah, Potter and Granger, could you please move to a box? I have something to discuss with these three classmates. It won't take long. You can just go check on Weasley for me. The twins at home, lest they blow up the train later."
Dumbledore said pleasantly to Harry and Hermione.
"Okay, Headmaster Dumbledore."
Harry nodded immediately and walked out of the private room with Hermione.
"Mr. Dumbledore, what I just said was not a joke."
Zhang Qi looked out the window and said lightly.
"You are really becoming more and more like him, but this is not a good thing, although young people should indeed be impulsive for love."
Dumbledore said with a smile, and then took out a glass jar from his robe (who knows how such a big jar was stuffed in).
"How about some chocolate? I remember you like this brand the most. I went to Gringotts to exchange gold coins for Muggle notes, and then went to the Muggle market to buy them."
"Thanks".
Zhang Qi unceremoniously picked up two Ferrero Rochers, peeled one open, threw it into his mouth and chewed it, while complaining:
"I said, Mr. Dumbledore, you are such an old man, can you stop talking about the philosophy of life about love? I always feel a sense of violation"...
"I just hope you and Miss Greengrass won't have any regrets."
Dumbledore still had a smile on his face.
"Isn't it a little too early for you to talk about this with a 13-year-old child?"
Zhang Qi muttered helplessly.
"Ah, actually I thought you would blush, but I seemed to see some progress."
Dumbledore nodded thoughtfully.
"I think if you have time, you should focus on finding the next Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. I think we should change teachers again next year."
Zhang Qi rolled his eyes.
"Oh? Why? Professor Lu Ping obviously teaches very well."
Dumbledore asked slightly strangely.
"It is difficult to conceal the characteristics of a werewolf, not to mention that our Professor Snape specifically emphasized this point when he was teaching. The index finger and middle finger of a werewolf are long on one side. As long as the students are more careful when explaining to the students, You can find this obvious characteristic of Professor Luping."
"The parents of the students will never allow the school to hire werewolves to teach their children, so I think there is a high probability that Professor Luping will go home after receiving this year's salary, find a new job, or start some small business. Investment, anyway, the salary offered by the school is actually quite a lot."
Zhang Qi took out a bottle of Coke from the box, used a bottle opener to pry open the cap and handed it over.
