The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts
v3 Chapter 167: Hagrid's troubles
The latest website: "Hagrid, what's the matter with you?" Hermione looked at Hagrid for a while. On Christmas, Hagrid didn't go to the banquet, and hid in the library and cried alone. No matter how you looked at it, something big happened.
Hagrid cried even harder when he heard her say that. He was able to suppress his voice and cry just now, but now he is crying directly.
Tom looked at Hagrid carefully, and found that he was in really bad shape today: disheveled hair, unshaven beard—worse than usual, red eyes, and a smell of alcohol.
Hagrid took a handkerchief from his pocket and blew his nose, making a trumpet-like noise. After blowing his nose, he pounced on Tom while crying.
How dare Tom take it, Hagrid's tonnage, the difference between being hit by him and being hit by a car is really not big. So he turned slightly and watched as Hagrid threw himself on the bookshelf with a muffled sound. The huge bookshelf full of books creaked and groaned, shaking violently, and the books on it swayed with it. Fortunately, it was heavy enough not to be knocked over by Hagrid.
Hagrid was crying on the desk for a long time, during which Mrs. Pince heard the sound and saw that the person who was out of control was Hagrid, she silently put away the feather duster in her hand, turned her head and left. She's a reasonable person, and the most reasonable person in the library right now is the tall Hagrid.
If you have emotions in your heart, you will feel much better when you cry. With the flow of tears, Hagrid's mood gradually became stable. He took an envelope with the seal of the Ministry of Magic out of his pocket and handed it to Tom.
Tom opened it and found a notification letter inside.
[Dear Mr. Hagrid: With regard to the Hippogriff attacking students in your classroom, after further investigation, we have accepted Professor Dumbledore's assurance that in this regrettable incident you did not any liability.
But we have to worry about the hippogriff. It has now been decided to uphold Mr Lucius Malfoy's formal complaint and refer the case to the Committee on the Disposal of Hazardous Organisms. A court date is set for April 24. Please bring your hippogriff to report to the committee's London office. During this time, hippogriffs should be properly tethered and isolated.
My sincere regards...]
After reading the notice, both Tom and Hermione understood why Hagrid was so distressed.
"Calm down, Hagrid. Things haven't gotten to the point of no return, and you're preparing for the April 24th lawsuit," said Hermione, walking over to Hagrid and putting her hand on Hagrid. On Grid's thick forearm, "You must prepare a strong defense, Hagrid, I'm sure you can prove that Buckbeak won't hurt anyone."
Hagrid shook his head and sobbed twice, "You don't understand those weirdos from the Dangerous Creatures Committee! They won't let these interesting animals go!"
Tom and Hermione: …
Hagrid's definition of animals is still so peculiar. Most of the animals that Hagrid was close to were "monsters" in other people's mouths. In Hagrid's eyes, these extremely dangerous animals were just pets.
The current Hagrid is a bit like a kid who doesn't want to send his pet away, but unlike the kid, Hagrid is more sensible. At least he wasn't headstrong enough to let Buckbeak out - because that would cause trouble for his surety, Dumbledore.
Tom's focus was unique, he was thinking, how could the Ministry of Magic have the time to try such a small case in such a chaotic situation?
He underestimated the offensive launched by Burns and overestimated Fudge's determination to resist. In fact, Fudge did not offer any resistance and decided to step down simply and neatly.
Fudge was still very sensible, and his timely exit gave Burns a punch in the air. And according to the unspoken rules of the Ministry of Magic, Fudge has surrendered, and Burns should stop and stop the liquidation of Fudge - which is what she did.
In the original world line, Fudge caused more trouble than it is now: in his presidency, Voldemort made a comeback, and he did nothing, but instead suppressed Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix. As a result, there was nothing wrong with him after he stepped down, and he still had a face at Dumbledore's funeral.
Thanks to the unspoken rules of the Ministry of Magic, Fudge was able to live so well. Not only Fudge, but his henchmen were not implicated, just marginalized.
Bones' compromise was rewarded with a rapid stabilization of the Ministry and a rapid restoration of order. The Ministry of Magic was only briefly in chaos for the half-day when the roaring letter arrived, and then returned to normal.
Ms Burns was now only one speech and one announcement away from being Minister for Magic.
Thanks to this, the Ministry of Magic's handling of Hagrid's case is completely in accordance with the normal progress. Tom wanted to complain very much. Hagrid's case started in September and the verdict was made in December. The final trial will not be held until April next year. This speed is outrageous.
However, Ms. Burns looks a little ignorant... Tom thought about it, and he was a little dissatisfied with Burns. Who is Hagrid? No doubt he was Dumbledore's man. Who is Lucius? Certainly not Dumbledore's. Not Fudge's either, he's the man behind Fudge.
Hagrid's case, after Lucius intervened and Dumbledore as surety, was not so pure. It became a wrestling between Dumbledore and the pure blood nobles.
Obviously, according to the normal world, Dumbledore was defeated: he came forward to vouch for Hagrid's innocence, but Hagrid and his hippogriff were sent to trial anyway. Dumbledore found Newt and hoped that he would save Buckbeak, but it also failed - if it wasn't for Dumbledore's clever use of the time-turner, Buckbeak's head would have been made into a souvenir.
Maybe Dumbledore didn't think so much, but in the eyes of other wizards, it was Dumbledore who failed in the duel with Lucius Malfoy, and in the end, he could only use Clever to honor him. This greatly damaged his prestige, and made the neutrals feel that Dumbledore was too old to protect even his loyal younger brother.
Fudge took office in 1990. Why did Fudge's attitude towards him change from writing a letter to ask him about every detail after just six years to daring to smear him in the newspapers?

Today, it is the story of Faris Spavin, the twentieth minister of the Ministry of Magic. Correction, he was the longest serving Minister of Magic. And his presence changed my view of life expectancy in the wizarding world. The minister was 147 years old when he stepped back! has exceeded the limits of human beings.
After reading his life experience, I am also very surprised that such a minister who can make troubles has not been impeached and stepped down...
------off topic-----
Fariss Spavin was a wizard, also known as a "spout-hole." He was Minister for Magic between 1865 and 1903.
Born in 1756 ~lightnovelpub.net~, Faris Spavin became Minister of Magic at the age of 109 (late bloomers belong). Faris is the longest-serving Minister of Magic of all time, and the most tirade of all time. He had survived an attempted assassination by a centaur (flying kick), a centaur who had been killed by Spavin's joke (beginning with "a centaur, a ghost and a gnome went into the same tavern"). Offended, he was stabbed (flying kick), but Spavin survived.
Spavin passed an important law in 1875: The Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards. The law makes it illegal for underage wizards to use magic outside of school. The Ministry of Magic uses traces to detect the use of magic by minors in violation of the law.
