The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

The scene became a little awkward for a while.

Because after Rufus Scrimgeour sighed and delivered that speech, Jon Hart did not agree with him as before, but picked up the glass of butter beer on the table and started "ton" "ton" "Tons" drank it up.

Therefore, Scrimgeour had to sit there very uncomfortably, waiting for the other party to finish drinking, and then put down the glass.

"What did you just say, Mr. Scrimgeour?" Jon Hart asked curiously, "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention just now."

Scrimgeour's complexion suddenly darkened, and he patiently repeated what he said before in a rough voice.

"Director, I don't quite understand what you mean." Jon seemed to be taken aback, and then said with an unbelievable expression:

"Those witches and wizards interviewed by the Daily Prophet have made great contributions and made great sacrifices in the battle against the Dark Lord... Don't you feel like Albus Dumbledore or El Wizards like Degas Bones should not publicize their deeds to the public. In my opinion, that kind of behavior is a betrayal of history."

When Scrimgeour heard the names of Edgar Bones, he suddenly felt dizzy.

He had no choice but to reply patiently: "Of course not, you misunderstood me, Mr. Hart... Of course I didn't mean to belittle them, but I have to say that those interviews have seriously disturbed the order of the Ministry of Magic, you understand What do I mean..."

"... the readers of the Daily Prophet, when they read those interviews, will one-sidedly think that the Ministry of Magic has not fulfilled our due responsibilities... But the fact is the opposite, the Ministry of Magic has done what we can Do everything, you should understand what I mean..."

Scrimgeour's logic became more and more confused as he went on.

He is not a person who is good at words, otherwise he would not have worked in the Auror office for decades... In order to explain his thoughts to the headmaster of Hogwarts, he almost racked his brains to express .

"Oh, oh, I see." Jon made a look of sudden realization: "You mean, those interviews have brought a lot of negative impressions to the Ministry of Magic, and even affected the reputation of the Ministry of Magic. Is it?"

"Yes." Scrimgeour heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time he nodded.

"That's really sorry." Jon made a slightly embarrassed smile: "I'm really sorry to cause you trouble."

...

Rufus Scrimgeour was already a little annoyed by the other party's eccentric attitude.

If he hadn't been concerned about his status as an official of the Ministry of Magic, he would have liked to draw out his wand and teach the young man in front of him what respect is.

But if he wants to return to that, now he can only hold back his temper and continue to communicate——

"Then Headmaster Hart..." Scrimgeour went on, "You mean..."

"I swear this will not happen again in the future." Jon said with a righteous face: "Director, after this interview topic is over, there are probably six to seven episodes..."

"...After all, the preparations are already in place, and the interview scripts are all ready; it's not easy for me to find Miss Rita Skeeter, and openly cut off the subsequent interviews, so the impact will be too bad."

Jon's voice was unhurried, and Rufus Scrimgeour on the other side was about to explode.

Feeling that the other party's emotions were on the verge of collapse, Jon suddenly continued:

"Of course, we can also intersperse some in the middle, about the contributions made by the Ministry of Magic and the staff of the Ministry of Magic in fighting against the mysterious man..."

"Ah?" Upon hearing this, Scrimgeour suddenly calmed down and let out a strange cry.

"After all, in the past two years, in the process of fighting against the mysterious man and his minions; there are also a group of brave Aurors, as well as officials of the Ministry of Magic, standing on the front line against them." Jon continued He explained unhurriedly: "For example, you, Director, are you a very obvious example; like you have captured many Death Eaters in the past two years, have you almost faced death many times... ..."

Jon said righteously again: "The reason why I want to contact Mr. Barnabas Guffy and open that column in the "Daily Prophet" is to let the entire wizarding world remember that in war, in order to fight against Those wizards who made great sacrifices by the dark forces...of course including Aurors, and some staff members of the Ministry of Magic..."

I have to say that this is a very sincere proposal compared to the previous responses that were deliberately kicking the ball.

Scrimgeour was also moved. If it is true as the other party said, "popular" one or two Aurors and the like will make the wizarding world realize that the Ministry of Magic has been working hard to protect them. It is doubtful that the pressure of public opinion they will face will be much smaller.

This is probably also a concession made by the other party?

After thinking patiently for a moment, Scrimgeour nodded solemnly: "I have to say that what you said is somewhat reasonable, Mr. Hart; there is indeed room for implementation of this proposal."

"Of course, the number of Aurors and members of the Ministry of Magic appearing in the column cannot be less than members of the Order of the Phoenix and people from Hogwarts." Scrimgeour seemed to have remembered something, and added hastily.

"Director." Jon said suddenly and earnestly: "Maybe there are some misunderstandings about the Order of the Phoenix within the Ministry of Magic; the Order of the Phoenix is ​​not an illegal armed organization, in fact it exists to fight against the forces of the Dark Lord." ... from the first generation of Dark Lords fifty years ago, to the second generation of Dark Lords twenty years ago, and to the return of the Mysterious Man two years ago..."

"This is not a profit-oriented organization. In fact, let alone me, even if Albus Dumbledore is still alive, apart from fighting against the forces of the Dark Lord, he cannot control this force at will... If you say If there is any extra worry about this, then there is no need for it.”

"And what I did was just to keep those wizards and victims who made great contributions from being forgotten by this world."

It has to be said that this was a heart-to-heart speech, and Scrimgeour seemed to be able to feel the sincerity in the other party's tone.

"Yes, Principal Hart." He nodded: "You are indeed right."

"Then Director..." Jon suddenly said: "You seem to have mentioned something about Mrs. Diana Greengrass..."

"Well, you don't have to worry about it." Scrimgeour smiled suddenly, and patted Jon on the shoulder: "Then I'll take my leave first, Mr. Hart. The butterbeer in this bar is really good."
