Chapter 214: Angry and Self-blaming
In the small room of the Chamber of Secrets, Draco saw Gloria coming back and said, "What's up, Professor McGonagall?"
"Nothing, it's just that Headmaster Dumbledore is well-informed and already knows that detention is over, so he asked me to send a letter to the Phoenix if I have anything to do."
The boy put down his pen, "He is not in school, and students are needed to subdue the unscrupulous officials of the Ministry of Magic."
Gloria sat down at the table and saw two letters there.
"By the way, the letter was here when I got here. It must have been sent by the elf."
Except for breakfast, people no longer go to the hall. The elves will go to the manor regularly to bring letters.
Starting this year, Gloria basically doesn't use owls for external communications, and Amy's job is to deliver newspapers every day.
Miss Slytherin:
As mentioned earlier, Sturgis Podmore was tried and sentenced to six months in Azkaban, but no explanation was given as to what he intended to rob.
The current situation is that he has contacted Dumbledore several times throughout August, and it can be seen that they have a good relationship. He should also escort Mr. Potter on the first day of your term.
The Ministry of Magic thoroughly checked other aspects and found no special strangers contacted him.
Because of his friendship with Dumbledore, Fudge deliberately attributed Podmore's actions to the headmaster, namely that Dumbledore intended to steal the researched items from the Department of Mysteries and use them against the Ministry of Magic.
However, without direct evidence, Fudge can only incite within the Ministry of Magic. I believe that the newspapers will report this news soon.
There are many rooms in the Department of Mysteries. Podmore may have been under the Imperius Curse. We cannot be sure about this since you are not here. Fudge does not have any intention of paying more attention to the Department of Mysteries. We will pay more attention to this department in the near future.
Also, Education Order No. 23 has been passed and should be implemented soon.
——Your partner
The other was a letter from the Daily Prophet. She had asked in advance to send her a copy of any news related to the Ministry of Magic.
Sure enough, it was news about Podmore's imprisonment.
Draco frowned, "What on earth is he trying to steal?"
"Only he knows." Gloria put down the letter. "But Podmore can't be a spy. After Voldemort successfully planted a spy, the Ministry of Magic became more cautious in selecting Unspeakables and frequently monitored them."
In fact, she probably guessed who did it and what they wanted to take away.
That person should know that the prophecy was incomplete and want to know the whole content.
The Department of Mysteries has a room where the prophecy is kept.
However, Fudge was determined to find a way to drive Headmaster Dumbledore out of Hogwarts.
Draco snorted, "It's Fudge's fault if anything goes wrong."

The first Saturday is here.
Gloria received a letter from Sirius in the morning, indicating that they would meet at Hagrid's hut in the afternoon.
Knowing what happened to Harry, he almost broke into the school, but was stopped and comforted by other members of the Order of the Phoenix. He slowly calmed down and came to Hagrid's Hut.
Because of Umbridge, he couldn't walk into the school like he did last year, so he quietly used his Animagus form to sneak into the empty house.
Fortunately, on weekends off, everyone was either in the castle or on the playground, so few students went near the Forbidden Forest.
She packed up a bit and quietly used the Disillusionment Charm when no one was around, so as not to be seen walking towards the Forbidden Forest.
When I pushed the door open, I saw a big black dog catching a bird. Since the window was open, the bird probably flew in accidentally.
"Sirius, don't destroy Hagrid's house. He'll be back."
The black dog instantly transformed into a human form, "Hahaha, I'm just a little bored. I saw it all in Harry's letter. You dealt a heavy blow to that toad."
Gloria glanced at him.
"Harry said in the letter that everyone calls her Toad." After saying this, a bit of anger appeared on his face, "This Toad actually hurt students. Harry should have told me earlier!"
"Tell you? And then you bite her in your Animagus form, or do you duel and miss your time in Azkaban?"
Sirius sat down angrily, "I am Harry's godfather, I have the right to hold him accountable. She even tried to do something to you."
Gloria thought that it was a good thing that Harry was not stupid and knew that she couldn't just tell Sirius. She said, "Now is not the right time. At least she won't dare to attack Harry easily in the future."
The back door was carefully opened, Harry looked around, then quietly stepped in and closed the door.
"You're really early. I just finished lunch."
"Come here." Sirius patted the oversized sofa, raising a cloud of dust. He coughed a few times and waved his hand. "Hagrid should close the window -"
"Harry, you should have written to me on the first night of detention to tell me what happened. She tortured a student!"
As he was about to stand up, Harry quickly held him down.
He had just been ridiculed by Slytherin students during Quidditch training in the morning, and of course he knew that Slytherin House was currently in a state of division.
In the afternoon, I have to face the godfather's "greetings" again.
"It's all right," said Harry. "Detention isn't that hard. It will pass if you just bear with it. Besides, Umbridge is a pain in the ass."
"You should be adventurous and rebellious, just like your father!" Sirius was very dissatisfied with Harry's tolerant attitude. "If it were James, he would have worked with us to find a way to deal with that woman long ago."
"The consequence I can't bear is detention!" Harry was so angry that his brain rushed to his brain. "I can bear this consequence. If Hermione and Ron help me, they will be put in detention together. I can bear this kind of thing!"
"Stop!" Gloria stopped their argument. "Is the purpose of your meeting to quarrel?"
The two of them lowered their heads in frustration.
"Umbridge has the dual identities of a professor and a Ministry of Magic official. She is not that easy to deal with." Gloria said: "I was absolutely sure before I faced her. Harry can't do that."
Sirius ruffled his hair in annoyance, "I'm sorry Harry... I... I'm actually angry at myself. You were tortured, and you asked Leah to stand up against it. I couldn't do anything."
He couldn't break into the school and attack Umbridge directly, nor could he get the Ministry to withdraw this person.
Sirius no longer had his previous cheerfulness. Perhaps he was suppressing his negative emotions and wanted to meet the two children with a vigorous spirit.
"The recent investigation has yielded no results. A silent person known to Dumbledore suddenly carried out a robbery in the Ministry of Magic. Fudge tried every means to target the headmaster. His verdict was reported in the newspaper today."
Harry forgot about being angry. "The Unspeakables, Mr. Weasley mentioned that their work is very mysterious. What about Podmore?"
"Yes, but Dumbledore definitely didn't ask him to do such a thing. In fact, we were all surprised." Sirius said: "Fudge seized on this point and kept exaggerating Dumbledore's intention to rebel against the Ministry of Magic."
In Harry's eyes, Fudge was once a kind and easy-to-talk minister, but everything has changed, or perhaps it has never changed.
Gloria said, "Then let the Order of the Phoenix pay more attention to the Department of Mysteries."
"Dumbledore has already reminded Kingsley." Sirius sighed, "It's just that Fudge doesn't care about it. His mind is full of Hogwarts and Dumbledore. He even accepted a damn interview today!"
Harry was equally depressed. "He targeted us so that we could only read in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class."
Sirius said, "Fudge doesn't want you to do combat training. The more harmless the better, so that there is no threat to the Ministry of Magic."
Seeing Harry's puzzled look, Gloria explained considerately, "Fudge thinks you will follow Dumbledore and rebel against the Ministry of Magic."
Harry's expression suddenly became uglier than when he was in detention.
