Late at night, the storm became more unbridled.
The lamp in Principal Hogwarts' office was still on, and Dumbledore was sitting at his desk, flipping through the latest issue of ”Transfiguration Today” by candlelight.
Next to the desk, a copy of the ”Daily Prophet” was spread out randomly, and the contents of the newspaper could be read clearly by candlelight:
Arthur Weasley, the director of the Department of Muggle Abuse Investigation by the Ministry of Magic, was fined fifty gallons for enchanting a Muggle car.
...
The enchanted car crashed at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. A director of the school, Mr. Lucius Malfoy, recently called and asked Mr. Weasley to resign immediately.
”Mr. Weasley destroyed the reputation of the Ministry of Magic,” Malfoy told our reporter.
...
Mr. Weasley didn't respond to this from our reporter, but his wife told the reporter to leave, or she would let her ghouls out to bite them.
...
There is no doubt that Arthur Weasley was in trouble, he was targeted by a group of people.
Of course, some of Arthur's actions annoyed the pure-blood wizards headed by Malfoy.
To be honest, the Office for Prohibiting the Abuse of Muggle Items is not highly regarded in the Ministry of Magic, and Arthur's ability to obtain a warrant for a search is suspicious.
Knowing that pure-blood wizards occupy important positions in the Ministry of Magic, they cannot allow the officials of the Ministry to harass them casually.
The search warrant was obviously something that someone deliberately pushed behind.
At present, Arthur's situation is very bad. Although for some reason, he has not been expelled from the Ministry of Magic for the time being, the suspension review is still ongoing.
Many wizards who did not deal with Arthur hoped that Arthur Weasley would be expelled from the Ministry of Magic to prevent the passage of the Muggle Protection Act he drafted. Many pure-blood wizards believed that they were offended by this law. Up.
Just now, Dumbledore wrote a letter to Fudge, agreeing to temporarily delay the passage of the Muggle Protection Act, persuading the other party to let Arthur stay in the Ministry of Magic as the director of the Office of Prohibition of Muggle Abuse.
In fact, Fudge is also having a headache for this.
No wizard is willing to take over the Office of Prohibition of Muggle Abuse. The salary is average, the treatment is not high, and it is very busy. It also needs to deal with Muggles frequently. The most important thing is that there are only two wizards in this position.
Probably only weird people like Arthur would like this kind of work.
What made Dumbledore worse was actually another thing.
This morning, Dumbledore received a note from Anderson with something that Dumbledore was extremely concerned about.
Harry Potter can hear sounds that ordinary people can't hear.
This is not a good sign in the magic world.
Moreover, at the end of the note it was written: something bad may happen.
