Under Luke's intentional blockage, not much information was leaked out. But it is not that easy to keep such news secret in front of caring people in this almost undefended school.
"Master, they want to move the dragon. What should we do now?"
Quirrell looked a little flustered. The situation in front of him was that no matter what choice they made, the situation in front of them seemed not optimistic. Their original intention was to wait until the dragon grew up and then report the matter directly to the Ministry of Magic. Just like what happened back then, no matter how the other party responded, the school would fall into chaos.
But the current situation is that if the Ministry of Magic is attacked now, there is not enough time, and their strength has not yet returned to its peak. If they forcefully break through the passage that has been set up by many professors, it may be a little dangerous.
Those magics looked ordinary, as if a few children could break through them if they cooperated tacitly. But in fact the danger level is not too low. If they want to pass without any injuries now, they will have to put a lot of effort into it.
And if the other party is allowed to act, it will be equivalent to the original plan being stillborn. It's very frustrating. But if they try to stop the other party's plan, the suspicion will shift back to themselves. After layers of coverings, Hogwarts now looks like a gift wrapped in multiple gift boxes in the eyes of some people.
No one knows what the 'surprise' inside is.
In his mind, Voldemort was silent for a long, long time. It's like thinking about how to deal with the current situation.
Vaguely, he seemed to see a young man smiling lightly at him and saying, "It's your turn now."
Harry Potter... is indeed the person who ruined my great career with his cleverness.
In his opinion, everything they found was related to Harry Potter and Ron Weiss.
It is natural to infer that Harry Potter is the leader of this operation, and Ron Weiss is the assistant of this operation.
"Luke Gunter... I thought he was some kind of outstanding talent at first. He might be a good enough servant or container. Although his last name is really a bit awkward."
Voldemort spoke in Quirrell's mind with emotion.
Quirrell was a little confused. He didn't expect why the topic suddenly turned to this. But during such a long time together, the most important thing he learned was not to interrupt his master when he was sighing.
"But I didn't expect that even people from the Gaunt family and Harry Potter would have to surrender. It seems that Harry... this is indeed an opponent worthy of my seriousness."
Quirrell rationally felt that Voldemort thought too much. After all, judging from the current situation, Harry Potter is the most famous 'savior' in the entire wizarding world. If you really want to make money, it won't be a problem to gain fame and fortune in an instant. It can be said that from that night on, even as a baby, he has become a very important person in the magic world. Now as he grows up, there are expectations for him. There will only be more people, not less.
Especially after the news of Voldemort's resurgence spread, he could already foresee such a scene. At that time, the expectations on Harry Potter were so strong.
But the premise of all this is... the face on the back of his head must have a real body...
"Don't worry about the other party. Pay attention to the other party's whereabouts, tell Mag their whereabouts in a hidden way... and let them be imprisoned."
After Voldemort was silent for a moment, he sneered and said.
Quirrell looked puzzled: "Isn't this of much use?"
Confinement? Quirrell wanted to laugh. If you ask the school professors to lock them up, what other benefits can there be besides allowing them to do some physical labor?
It was almost like a child taking revenge... He would believe whatever the little guy from the Malfoy family came up with.
"Huh, when faced with such a situation, Mag will basically not make the choice to punish them with confinement in order to avoid suspicion. After that, Hagrid, who is directly related to this matter, is likely to take the initiative to ask them to come together. All the teachers are staring at the Forbidden Forest, so it would be a good choice to throw the two of them into the Forbidden Forest as bait."
"They entered the Forbidden Forest as bait, most likely to lure us out."
Quirrell became even more confused after hearing this: "Then you still want to create opportunities for them!?"
Is there any difference between this self-casting net?
"They...want to catch me too? Hahaha!"
Voldemort's hoarse laughter came to mind, but Quirrell knew that he couldn't talk nonsense at this time. Are you questioning the strength of the great Voldemort? The reason why he didn't flip the table was just because he didn't want to flip the table, not because he didn't have the ability!
Please keep this in mind...otherwise you, as a carrier, are likely to receive severe 'punishment'.
"Then...that's what I'll do."
Quirrell spoke, with a persuasive tone in his voice, seeming to want to convince himself.
…
"The plan is too crude." Taylor stared into Luke's eyes and said straight to the point. Hermione next to her also had a thoughtful expression.
"Hagrid's dragon has an unknown origin. It's a person who carries a fire dragon egg with him. Do you believe there is such a person? He brings prohibited items with him." Taylor looked at Luke, who was silent, with a serious look on his face. Said: "There is obviously a conspiracy, and the other party has exchanged the fire dragon eggs for the information he wants, but this does not mean that the conspiracy surrounding the fire dragon is over."
Luke looked at Taylor, who looked serious, with a smile. It could be seen that Taylor was not angry. She was very calm. There was doubt in her eyes, but she did not question it.
"Fire dragons are contraband. If this thing is discovered by my relevant departments, then our energy will be involved, because on the matter of the Forbidden Forest, our relationship with Hagrid is already very good. If we give up Hagrid, That means giving up the efforts of this period of time. If you don’t give up on Hagrid, then your energy will be involved.”
It's not that he doesn't trust Dumbledore's ability, but that once Dumbledore is involved in some things, the complexity will only increase infinitely.
Because many people don't trust him. Especially the officials of the Ministry of Magic, most of whom relied on Dumbledore's extraordinary strength. But they were also worried that Dumbledore would have a sudden sexual desire and take away all their rights.
They firmly believe that Dumbledore has such strength. They also believe that no one can be truly indifferent in the face of rights. Because it is completely impossible for them to do it themselves.

So they were always on guard, carefully guarding against Dumbledore's every move. The funniest thing Luke heard from Lance Sr. was that during a meeting, Dumbledore sneezed and interrupted a young man who was speaking about his opinions.
Although Dumbledore made it clear that this was just an accident. But that issue, which was in everyone's interest, was ultimately not passed. Even the young man himself voted against his own issue.
And that young man was one of Cornelius Fudge's confidants. Since then, Fudge still consulted Dumbledore's opinions in real time on both big and small matters. But I am already trying to make my own decisions on some things.
Dumbledore didn't think this was a bad thing, so he naturally let it go. As a result, Fudge made more and more decisions on his own, but the conflict between him and Dumbledore became more and more serious.
He sticks to his bottom line and has no reason not to step into Hogwarts. He thought this was the worst situation Dumbledore could accept.
But... is a place that has cultivated almost all wizards in the UK really a place that can be abandoned casually?
As long as you become the manager here, most British wizards will have a romantic relationship with you. Sometimes when you can't act like a superior, you can act like an elder.
To be honest, Luke didn't know how Fudge could endure it until now.
Once this reason is really given, things will develop in a very bad direction.
Cornelius Fudge may not be a very good Minister of Magic, but he is definitely not a too bad Minister of Magic. There is no shortage of political achievements that should be expected.
Of course, it's also possible that his subordinates worked hard enough.
In short, Luke felt that based on Dumbledore's conventional thinking. If this thing really happened, then he would definitely achieve his wish in a rather roundabout way. Thinking about it from his perspective, Luke felt that if it were him, he would be surrounded by a man who could attack the Ministry of Magic based on his blood alone. cause certain impact. Many people are willing to give face to this kind of thing. And those who are involved in this matter and have the leverage in their hands will definitely use it.
After all, with Ying, if it’s easy to use, use it until death.
Luke thought with his toes and knew that this matter would most likely fall on him in the end, and there was no suspense about it.
So he'd better not cause trouble for himself. At this point when the arm could not twist the thigh, it caused some trouble for Dumbley, even if it caused less trouble for himself.
"But what does this have to do with the simplicity of your plan?"
"Because this plan is meant to be sabotaged by the other party..." Luke replied calmly, "If the other party is smart enough, then he will face two choices. One is to plan in advance to bring things to light before we take action. "
"But it's too late to do this. No matter how high the Ministry of Magic's work efficiency is, Dumbledore must be taken into consideration. I don't know if Fudge is ready to break up with Dumbledore. Most likely. No."
Because nothing like this has happened in Hogwarts now. Dumbledore's power and majesty were doubted. It was the basilisk incident in the next school year that caused a stir. Everyone felt that something was wrong at Hogwarts, which shook Dumbledore's authority.
"So this trick actually doesn't work."
Luke naturally said this because he coveted the current situation of the matter. Voldemort's thoughts presented a different situation naturally because their experiences were different. Voldemort didn't think that the old man had any reason to fear the Minister of Magic. After all, he knew Dumbledore, he was the kind of person who could give up a lot when necessary for the sake of rules.
As long as he is not forced to a certain extent, Dumbledore is the first guardian of the rules.
Based on this idea, Voldemort did not think that the Minister of Magic, as the maker and enforcer of rules, should be afraid of Dumbledore. Respect is okay, but fear is totally unnecessary.
You can even use this to bully him.
"So in fact, as long as the other party is smart enough, there is only one choice that can be made." Luke looked at Taylor and Hermione with understanding expressions on their faces and said with a smile, "He can only stop our plan. , and then let our main people go to confinement.”
"Confinement..."
Hermione subconsciously wanted to refute this childish-sounding idea, but when she saw the slightly meaningful smile on Luke's face, she knew it was definitely not nonsense.
So she lowered her head again and thought.
After a moment, the two men looked up at Luke as if they had figured something out.
"Or Hagrid?" Taylor asked tentatively.
Hermione didn't speak, but judging from her eyes, the answer should be the same.
Luke applauded without hesitation.
With a twinkling light in his eyes, Luke said: "You two keep going, it's impossible not to care about this kind of thing for the rest of your life. Otherwise, I don't know how many people will fool you."
"Then I think the first thing we need to be careful about is you..."
Hermione complained mercilessly: "You are the most dangerous spider around."
Even though he said it, everyone could hear that it was just a bit of grumbling and complaining.
But Luke didn't refute, just smiled without any answer.
Fortunately, no one paid attention.
"Then the details you released before are just misleading others. People think that Harry and Ron are the leaders."
Hermione hesitated and glanced at Luke, but still said: "Will there be any danger to the two of them?"
Luke nodded: "Yes, but it's within control. Don't worry."
Luke doesn't explain why, because that's enough.
He had no idea of lying in front of the two of them for the time being.
Tyler looked at Luke with no expression on his face. But she knew one thing very well. Luke only explained the other party's plan, but still did not explain his own operations in it.
Could it be that Luke just used this trick to send Hagrid's fire dragon out and cut off any possible troubles he might have?
Taylor doesn't think so.
But I’m not going to ask anymore… I don’t have two days left.
