Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

v2 Chapter 350: candidate for minister

Popular recommendation:

"There's nothing wrong with them wanting to set you up as a banner against Voldemort this time around."

"Even if the Ministry of Magic doesn't put you on the bright side, Voldemort's primary goal is to kill you by all means. Your performance last night can calm the panic of the people as soon as possible, which is also good for you."

Dumbledore looked at Sherlock and said.

"Of course, I didn't make a statement to them. No matter how good it looks, you still need your own consent. If you don't want to make such a show, I can negotiate with the Ministry of Magic and let them suppress the recent public opinion."

Sherlock rubbed his temples with a headache.

"To be honest, I really don't want to make such a show. But if the magic world needs my name to build confidence in the people, that's fine. After all, as you said, it's not only a loss to me, There are benefits."

"However, don't keep promoting me as a golden sign. I just want to live a low-key life, and I don't want to be a celebrity."

Dumbledore said softly.

"This involves the second matter, regarding the consultations with the Ministry of Magic, to re-absorb you into the Auror Command."

"If you have this idea, the Ministry of Magic will definitely promote you again in the future, but if you are not going to work in the Ministry of Magic, then after they stabilize the current situation of the magic world, they will definitely stand up again. New characters to attract the attention of the public.”

For such a thing, Sherlock could basically guess a general reason just by listening to Dumbledore's simple words.

If he is not going to join the Ministry of Magic, he will always build momentum for him and build the confidence of the people on him. After a long time, what will the British wizards think?

It can only be said that the Auror is incompetent, not as good as a professor at Hogwarts, and Dumbledore has always been the headmaster of Hogwarts.

To be honest, is the orthodoxy in the wizarding world at the Ministry of Magic or at Hogwarts?

So this time the Ministry of Magic gave Sherlock an olive branch, not just because of his ability.

Sherlock waved his hand and said.

"That's right. I didn't want to go to the Ministry of Magic to be the head of the Auror office. It's good to be a professor at Hogwarts."

As for Sherlock's choice, Dumbledore obviously expected it.

They have been together for so long, and he also knows what character Sherlock is now.

And from Dumbledore's heart, he actually didn't expect Sherlock to enter the Ministry of Magic at this time.

"Although I won't interfere with your choice, I really don't want you to enter the Ministry of Magic." Dumbledore didn't hide it.

"It's like every time the minister changes, I will be invited to run for election to succeed the next minister, but I don't agree."

"The political atmosphere there is too strong. If it's just a normal situation, it's fine, but they can't handle a high-pressure event like Voldemort that threatens the entire wizarding world."

he shook his head.

"This is also my original intention of founding the Order of the Phoenix after I discovered this matter. The wizarding world needs an organization that can deal with Voldemort wholeheartedly."

Sherlock touched his chin, and then he asked a very crucial question.

"After this incident, how is the situation on Fudge's side?"

Dumbledore's face was calm.

"Connelly's situation is very bad. There are many calls for him to step down from the ministry. He is also struggling with this matter now, but there is a high probability that he will lose the position of minister. From the beginning of the World Cup to the present, his decision-making It's all really bad."

"Then...who is the most likely person to take over the position of minister? Crouch?" Sherlock asked.

"If the little Barty thing doesn't come out, the only person to take over is Barty." Dumbledore's glasses reflected white light, "He is also the most suitable candidate, but because he helped Barty escape and hid it. The matter has been exposed, then there is no possibility of this."

"This is a huge stain. Neither the Ministry of Magic nor the people outside will accept a Minister of Magic with such a dark history."

"Who is that?"

Dumbledore said solemnly.

"Rufus Scrimgeour."

When Dumbledore and Scrimgeour arrived last night, Sherlock had lost his strength and passed out, so he didn't know that the person who led the Auror was the Auror Director, but he still had the same personality and appearance. The old lion-like man has some impressions.

Because of the events that went back to the past with Snape, this wizard was already the head of the Auror office at that time.

In other words, he has been sitting in this position for nearly 20 years, and he is indeed a veteran.

Through Sherlock's understanding of this person, he can indeed be called hatred for evil, never wavering in his stance against Voldemort, nor weak in his actions.

Just judging from Dumbledore's expression, he didn't seem to be very optimistic about Scrimgeour's rise to power.

Without waiting for Sherlock to speak, Dumbledore had already stated the reason~lightnovelpub.net~ Rufus's position need not be doubted by anyone. Like Barty, he will always choose to stand on the opposite side of Voldemort, but his The character is a little too careless. "

Sherlock frowned slightly.

"What's the meaning?"

"Like this time, the matter of inviting you to join the Ministry of Magic was actually proposed by him. At the beginning, if there was no persuasion from me, he planned to force you to be hired."

Dumbledore crossed his fingers, which was an action he made subconsciously when he was thinking about something.

"Whether you agree or not, the Ministry of Magic directly declares that you are their person, and even if you don't actually hold the position, there are some titles of positions, so that they can no longer bother to introduce new pillars to stabilize the reputation of the Ministry of Magic. , but use your fame directly for their purposes."

Sherlock couldn't help smacking his lips.

"It sounds very uncomfortable, he just used me as a tool?"

"Such an analogy is appropriate." Dumbledore laughed dumbly, "I stopped him from doing this, because he seemed to be a little dissatisfied with me, saying that I was too weak in some things."

"It seems that this Scrimgeour has also become a minister in the future, and he is not a good character to get along with."

Sherlock rubbed his face, and sure enough, the politicians are not good at all.

Dumbledore stood up, it seemed that he had almost talked with Sherlock this time, and was finally ready to leave.

"No matter what, his position will never change, which is a good thing after all." chaptere
