The barbell-like laughter sounded, and Rita Skeeter turned around gracefully and looked at Professor McGonagall, who had a bad face, "Professor McGonagall, it's been a long time," she paused, "the last time we met. still…"

"Ms. Skeeter, I don't really want to talk to you about the past, and it's not a good one."

Professor McGonagall interrupted Skeeter, rudely kicking her and her partner out of the greenhouse, closing the door softly, and turning around.

"Let's talk about how you got in--let's talk about this, and then I'll send you out in good manners."

"Absolutely in line with etiquette," Professor McGonagall emphasized.

Ms. Skeeter fell silent. She looked at her partner who was holding the camera and complained in a low voice, "Didn't I tell you to wait for me outside?"

The angry expression made her stiff face come to life. She pointed to the camera, "What are you doing here? You're still holding this stupid thing!"

"Even provoke Mag! Look what good things you've done!"

The partner in the brown plaid suit touched his head, "Rita, you've been in for too long, I'm just afraid you're in danger..."

"Cough," Professor McGonagall coughed, interrupting the conversation between the two, "please answer my question, you two..."

Obviously, Rita Skeeter didn't really want to tell Professor McGonagall that she had turned into a beetle and flew in, so she raised her eyebrows and looked at Professor McGonagall with a smile, "He walked in from the main entrance generously. , McGonagall, you didn't find me, it only shows that Hogwarts' security awareness is really bad..."

Rita Skeeter raised her chin, "Maybe mine will have new material in the next article - \'My years as a school safety inspector\'."

"It's time for the Hogwarts board to take care of the school's safety..." Skeeter didn't mention Headmaster Dumbledore, but moved out of the board.

"You didn't come in from the main entrance at all. Filch only saw your partner, not your figure," McGonagall frowned. She was not very good at dealing with the reporter lady's harassment.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to give it to Professor Snape, a bottle of potion could make her shut up.

"What does that mean?" Skeeter shrugged. "They can believe what I write. My words are so popular!"

Professor McGonagall has a tough attitude, but he also has to consider the reputation of Hogwarts and Headmaster Dumbledore. Who knows how Skeeter will control public opinion and turn black and white.

The relationship between the board of directors of Hogwarts, the Ministry of Magic and Headmaster Dumbledore has been delicate since a long time ago, and it is even worse now.

The twelve board members have the right to appoint and suspend the headmaster of Hogwarts, decide whether to close the school in the event of an emergency, and listen to the feedback of the parents of students, make suggestions to the headmaster or directly interfere with the teaching method.

These rights are recognized by the will of Hogwarts Castle, because education needs financial assistance. Most of the twelve board members are pure blood and have the ability to make money.

The Ministry of Magic has the right to directly appoint the headmaster of Hogwarts, but this right is not recognized by Hogwarts Castle, so the headmaster appointed by the Ministry of Magic cannot enter the headmaster's office, and he will also be attacked by Peeves when working in the castle. The rebellion of the castle-like will.

The real headmaster of Hogwarts can only be chosen by the castle.

The British magic world cannot control the place where talents are cultivated, and it has to provide funds every year. Of course, the Ministry of Magic and the board of directors will not be reconciled, and each has its own mind.

Dumbledore, the headmaster elected by the castle recently, the greatest white wizard of the century, was inevitably picked up by the board of directors and the Ministry of Magic.

During the peaceful time before the Dark Demon fireworks in Diagon Alley were released, the "Daily Prophet" mentioned in an article "The Great Crisis in the Wizarding World" written by Rita Skeeter at the request of the Ministry of Magic.

\'...Some \'ancient\' families are worried about Hogwarts full of Muggle-born little wizards, and believe that the appearance of these little wizards will further aggravate the employment and survival problems of pure-blooded and half-blooded wizards in the wizarding world. Hope Headmaster of Hogwarts draws attention...\'

\'... Principal Dumbledore said that he would focus on education and cleverly avoided the issue of bloodline - but can this issue really be avoided? The living space of the aborigines in the magical world has been squeezed by outsiders, and has been At a critical point, if no changes are made, the future will get worse and worse...\'

\'... children of half-blood and pure-blood working as house-elves and watching Muggle-born descendants busy at the Ministry of Magic - in the end the wizarding world will not be our wizarding world, but Muggle wizarding , I, Rita Skeeter, hereby call for a change at Hogwarts...\'

The report caused quite a stir, and even resonated with most mixed- and pure-blood families, and some groups even organized a protest march in Diagon Alley.

It wasn't until the big news of Diagon Alley's Black Devil Fireworks came out that this matter was suppressed.

The terrifying Dark Lord Voldemort has captured the attention of everyone in the British wizarding world. Let other things go first, and life is more important.

Then Sirius fled, which made everyone have no time to pay attention to the employment issues at Hogwarts and the wizarding world. Just stay at home and think about it, for fear that Voldemort will bring his minions to Huo Huo in the next second.

Fortunately, the line of sight was diverted and the bloodline conflict in the magical world was under control, but this incident also reflected that Rita Skeeter's means of controlling public opinion were powerful enough.

Don't give her a chance to splash dirty water.

Thinking of this, Professor McGonagall calmed down, despite the expression on his face "I want to turn you into two pigs and drive you out of the school", "What are you here for?"

Rita Skeeter put her hands together and tapped the ground with the toe of her high heels, looking very excited. "Anna Lawrence, I need to conduct a brief interview with her," she said quickly.

Anna…

McGonagall frowned. She really didn't want to hear the name. Could it be that Skeeter found out that Anna had something to do with the fireworks in Diagon Alley?

"A first-year Slytherin student, with brown hair and green eyes, ordinary and ordinary," McGonagall described Anna. "What happened to her?"

"Professor McGonagall, I think she's obviously not as ordinary as you said!" Ms. Skeeter thought that Professor McGonagall was hiding something, and became even more excited, her eyes glowing, "She had traveled to Alabama with Headmaster Dumbledore. Zkaban—"

"Just a few days before Sirius fled!"

This is something that Professor McGonagall didn't know~lightnovelpub.net~ She knew that Dumbledore went to see Anna, but she didn't know that they also went to Azkaban, it was weird.

"There's always their reasons for that, Ms. Skeeter," Professor McGonagall didn't show it despite feeling weird, "but it shouldn't have anything to do with Sirius Black—"

"Otherwise, are you trying to say that the greatest white wizard of this century, recognized by the International Federation of Wizards, will ignore the law and let criminals escape?"

"I didn't say that, Professor McGonagall," Skeeter shook his head, his wonderful blond hair wiggling, "but I'm a reporter, a best reporter, and it's up to me to dig out the truth, Put aside the cloak of the incident and tell everyone the truest story."

"You've done a good job of this," Professor McGonagall mocked her. Who doesn't know that Rita Skeeter loves exaggeration and fabrications. What can she not do for the attention of Galleon and Boren?

"Thank you for the compliment," Rita Skeeter fiddled with her hair, "then please bring Miss Lawrence here—"

"I promise, I won't put pressure on this child," Rita Skeeter smiled confidently, as if she felt that facing an eleven-year-old girl, she could easily dig out the information she wanted.

Staring at Skeeter's hair for a while, Professor McGonagall raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Then good luck, Ms. Skeeter."

Underestimating the enemy is a big taboo in the military, but Professor McGonagall is not going to remind it.

"Squeak," Professor McGonagall pushed open the door of the greenhouse.

A group of little heads turned around.

"Miss Lawrence," Professor McGonagall looked at Anna who was standing behind the twins wearing dragonskin gloves with a bewildered face.

"There is a reporter here who wants to ask you some questions, which will be over soon..."

"Don't be too cautious."
