[039] Dumbledore's Choice
Dumbledore was now suffering from a headache.
Two first-grade wizards died in Hogwarts, which was an unprecedented bad event—the last time Hogwarts had a dead man was the time when Hagrid was deprived of his wand…
In 1943, Voldemort, who was still called Tom, opened the secret room and released the basil monster, killed the Ravenclaw student Myrtle, and finally blamed Hager. Although it was not possible to prove that Hager and the eight-eyed giant spider killed Myrtle, Hager was not sent to Azkaban, but because of the lack of direct and critical evidence, he still broke his wand because of the lack of direct and critical evidence.
In addition, Armando Dippet, who was the principal of Hogwarts at the time, resigned because of this incident, and Dumbledore took over as the principal until now.
This time, the two students were saved on the fourth floor by Avada, but the Philosopher's Stone that caused all the magic stones were brought by Dumbledore...
Even if Dumbledore is the "greatest white wizard", he may not be able to bear this responsibility!
Although he was still calm when facing Carl and Hermione, Dumbledore knew very well that he had not had much time at Hogwarts.
Dumbledore was actually mentally prepared for his resignation - he also understood that all this was caused by himself. He was originally just to train Harry, but in the end, things quickly got out of control...
Dumbledore thought he had mastered the entire situation - in his opinion, although Kilow might have problems, he would not have any chance with Snape staring at him, and the Philosopher's Stone hidden in Eris's Mirror and the levels on the road will be opportunities and tests for Harry and his friends to exercise.
But Dumbledore never dreamed that Ron would use the transformation technique to create a Muggle gun to snatch the Philosopher's Stone - and Draco was even more exaggerated and hanged Ron with black magic!
Are these all freshmen in the first grade?
Wait, a freshman in the first grade?
Dumbledore narrowed his eyes, as if he had noticed something critical.
In the magic world, what does a first-grade wizard mean?
It means that it has just received a formal magic education, has just arrived in Hogwarts, and has just begun to build its own outlook on life.
Perhaps depending on the talent, the grades that young wizards can achieve in the first grade are indeed different, but... whether it is turning the iron rod into a revolver, or the oath out of the hole and summoning a giant python, this is obviously not something that a normal freshman can do.
The abnormal students, Voldemort, who had resurrected from the dead, and Hogwarts, now - or the entire magic world, showed signs of something wrong in Dumbledore's eyes.
This extremely stimulating Dumbledore. After thinking about all this carefully, he obviously felt a different sense of crisis.
And at such a critical moment, can I really resign and leave Hogwarts?
Dumbledore thought for a long time, finally gritted his teeth, picked up the quill, and wrote a letter to his friend.
Perhaps, my old bones would have to sit in this position for a while - after the letter was sent, Dumbledore thought of this.
………………………………………
Christmas in 1991 was destined to be uneasy - while the little wizards were still excitedly exchanging gifts, the Minister of Magic Foggy, who received the news, had already appeared in the principal's office of Hogwarts with a group of "capable players" and a group of "unexpected" reporters.
"Albus!" Unlike the last respectful and respectful one, Fudge seemed to have a tendency to turn against the enemy as soon as he started. "Tell me, what's going on - why are there two little wizards who died in Hogwarts?!"
"Because Voldemort is back." Dumbledore made a showdown straightforward, "he controlled Professor Quirrell and used a death curse on Draco."
"That man is dead." Fudge's words gradually became intense, "Dead thoroughly-and you, now trying to put the blame on a dead person?!"
Fudge, who received the news, was fearless at this time. The accidental death of a student was a huge stain on Dumbledore. The previous principal stepped down because of this reason.
He, Armando, will you get out of here, you, Dumbledore?
Fudge knew very well that in this situation, the only one who succeeded the principal would be Professor McGonagall. Although this harsh witch was a good professor, she was far from Dumbledore as the principal.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Ministry of Magic can reach into Hogwarts!
However, Dumbledore's next words almost made him unable to lift it up in one breath.
"Mr. Minister, I think you'd better pay attention to your words." Dumbledore showed the momentum of the strongest white wizard in his contemporary body. "I have my own judgment, and the Ministry of Magic can do it, but this judgment must be based at least on investigation - flashback curse, and even true spitting will restore the truth. As long as the truth is still there, you can't help but talk nonsense!"
"You—" Foggy really didn't expect that Dumbledore would be so tough at this time. "Very good, Professor Dumbledore, I hope you can always stick to yourself so much, in front of the school board, in Wiesengamor..."
The next moment, Fudge's words choked up - Dumbledore was simply the Supreme Justice of Wiesengamor!
"This year, the Forbidden Forest in Hogwarts encountered a fire. If the professors had not taken action together, the entire Forbidden Forest and even the Hogwarts castle might have been destroyed." Dumbledore seemed to have not heard Foggy's threat at all, "and then someone had the idea of a Philosopher's Stone. I received a letter from the Ministry of Magic asking me to go to Norway. After I left, another kind of magic appeared in Quirrell's wand. Two unfortunate little wizards were killed - no one wanted to see that at this moment, the Ministry of Magic's performance was gloating!"
"Attention to your words." Fudge's anger rose unknowingly, "Are you accusing the Ministry of Magic of inaction?"
"It's not that he is inaction." Dumbledore finally stood up, staring at the Minister of Magic in front of him with his eyes. "What I suspect is that someone in the Ministry of Magic is waiting for Voldemort to come back, looking forward to his return!"
"You?!" Fudge was speechless, "You are trying to push your problems to the Ministry of Magic and get rid of your responsibility!"
"Wisegamo will make a judgment if this is the case." Dumbledore clearly saw that Fudge's collar was a little wet, and finally sat back in his position. "No one knows Voldemort better than me."
