A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 84: Cornel Fudge
On the basilisk's flat snake head, a large hole pierced its skull and upper jaw, leaving only two dark holes for its eyes.
From time to time, there were a few exclamations accompanied by fear from the crowd.
These wizards are only in the first and second grades, and the oldest are in the sixth and seventh grades, but they still couldn't help swallowing when they faced the dead basilisk.
One of the little wizards asked everyone's question: "Potter and the others fought against this behemoth? How did they do it?"
No one answered his question.
A Slytherin couldn't help but want to get closer. He reached out, but an invisible barrier bounced him away.
"Dumbledore said it, Flint." A sharp voice came out, and everyone moved out of the way. It was Professor Flitwick.
He is short in stature, but the young wizards of Hogwarts all respect him, because he is always full of enthusiasm when he lectures, and he treats the young wizards of the four houses equally.
He came to the front and walked around the basilisk, "It's really a rare magical creature. I think Hagrid will like it."
……
After the lesson was over, Felix thought about it and decided to visit the courtyard.
Dumbledore said at the dinner last night that the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, would be here today, and he planned to take a closer look at this man.
It is rumored that he is Dumbledore's answering person, and he has no opinions of his own. But Felix doesn't think so, and a political man is less principled than the best dog lick when he is weak.
He walked down the stairs, preparing to walk through the auditorium.
At this moment, there was a loud noise from a distance, and seven or eight people walked towards them.
"Minister Fudge, please go this way." Professor McGonagall walked ahead.
Behind her was a stout little middle-aged man, stocky and stocky, with a mop of gray hair and a worried expression on his face.
His clothes were a strange mishmash: pinstriped suit, bright red tie, long black cape, purple pointed boots. He also held a dark green top hat under his arm.
Felix recognized him immediately. It was Cornelius Fudge, the current Minister of Magic. Next to him was a tall man dressed like an Auror who seemed to be Fudge's subordinate.
Behind this is a middle-aged man with platinum-blond hair. His whole body is tightly wrapped in a long black travel cape, with a cold, repulsive look on his face. With an indifferent expression, he also held a wand that looked like a cane in his hand.
Looking at his signature hair color, Felix had some guesses in his mind, maybe it's that rather famous pure-blood family——Malfoy?
Following Malfoy is a woman Felix happens to have dealt with, Rita Skeeter. With heavy makeup on her face, she was telling her two assistants energetically, "Seize the moment, the moment! Get it? Take more pictures."
The two young men with magic cameras obediently agreed.
Felix couldn't help laughing. It seems that this newspaper celebrity has a good psychological quality.
Rita Skeeter was carrying a satchel in her hand. After walking through the auditorium, her eyes began to search around cautiously.
As a result, she happened to meet Felix's gaze, her pupils constricted suddenly, and her steps became hesitant and hesitant.
Following her was Dumbledore who was walking slowly at the end. He was the tallest among them. At this moment, his blue eyes were watching all this.
When Professor McGonagall saw Felix in front of her, she stopped, "Oh, Felix. Let me introduce you. This is Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic." Then, she gently With a snort, he said reluctantly, "These two are Lucius Malfoy and Rita Skeeter."
Fudge showed enough enthusiasm, he walked forward quickly and stretched out his hands: "Felix Heppe, you have heard your name for a long time, I have heard your name mentioned by the French Minister of Magic more than once."
Felix withdrew his hand indiscriminately, "I just wrote a few books." He was staring at Fudge's eyes the whole time, and he didn't see much enthusiasm in those eyes.
He looked at Rita Skeeter again, and said softly, "Rita."
The woman with exaggerated curly hair greeted awkwardly: "Hello, Mr. Haipu." She didn't know if she should pretend not to know him, and if she revealed this man's secret, she would cause trouble trouble.
But if Felix is not mistaken, at this moment, the eyes of Fudge and Malfoy changed at the same time.
Really sharp... Is it worthy of being a figure in Vanity Fair?
Felix nodded at Malfoy, the two had nothing to do with each other.
But Lucius Malfoy looked at him quietly for two seconds with his gray eyes, and then pulled out a reserved smile, and he stretched out his right hand: "Hello, Mr. Haipe."
Surprised, Felix also stretched out his hand, "Hello, Mr. Malfoy."
After a short greeting, Professor McGonagall continued to lead the way, and Felix had quietly walked to the end of the line, walking side by side with Dumbledore.
The two of them were far away from the team, talking to each other in low voice~IndoMTL.com~Felix, it is wrong to abuse Legilimency. Dumbledore blinked, "That will make you lose a lot of fun, and it will make you more likely to get bored with this world." "
"This is your experience?"
"Everyone is young." Dumbledore did not answer directly, but Felix had already understood the underlying meaning - young people are always prone to make mistakes.
So he said: "I'm very young now, Headmaster Dumbledore. Besides, I just sensed his real emotions a little bit, which helps to understand each other better, doesn't it?"
Dumbledore did not insist on this topic, he asked with great interest: "What did you perceive?"
"Are you interested in what the Minister of Magic thinks?" Felix asked back.
"No, Felix, I don't need Legilimency to see through him at all. This may be the only thing I can master without active learning after living for a hundred years."
Felix was a little surprised. Dumbledore shouldn't have said this to him, should he? When did their relationship become so close?
Then the two remained silent.
When they reached the courtyard, Professor McGonagall had already led Fudge and others to stand in front of the basilisk. Felix and Dumbledore stood outside the crowd without pushing forward.
Hagrid stood awkwardly in the corner, and Felix understood what was going on after hearing a few words from the little wizards.
Just now, Hagrid has been begging Professor Flitwick to unlock the magic around the basilisk. He wants to experience the charm of the basilisk at close range...
Do wizards who study magical animals think this way?
So, how many seconds until Professor Kettleburn arrives at the battlefield? Felix thought nonchalantly.
