"Danger?" Dudley raised his eyebrows when he heard this word. He was sure that he heard it correctly.
Who is more dangerous than Sirius, the basilisk, the Horcrux or the remnant soul of Voldemort?
It was obviously just an excuse for Dumbledore not to want him to interfere.
"I just want to solve the problem at hand as soon as possible. Those dementors control the outside of the castle and make Hogwarts shrouded in dark clouds all day long. It is rainy and lifeless almost every day, making the surroundings full of smoke and smoke. It makes me and My crew members can’t get a good workout.”
"And I have received feedback from many young wizards that dementors have shown their intention to attack them."
The group of dementors barely restrained themselves after being thrown out by Dumbledore at the dinner party, but they have become active again recently.
This kind of thing is an evil spirit that is more disgusting than a dark magic creature. It doesn't have much intelligence. If it is allowed to develop, it will cause problems sooner or later.
It is better to expect them to abide by the Ministry of Magic's agreement than to expect Voldemort to become a good person.
"Dudley, please bear with me. After all, this is the request of the Ministry of Magic."
Dumbledore took out another cockroach, threw it into his mouth and started eating it.
When school first started, many little wizards sent letters to their families. I thought that a guy like Fudge, who was always willing to listen to the wind and rain, would immediately give in and remove the dementors as soon as possible, but this time Fudge, who had always had no independent opinions, had an attitude. He was actually extremely tough and insisted on letting the Dementors garrison Hogwarts.
Even though I received so many letters of complaint, I still remained indifferent.
This left the wizards who sent the letter with no choice. The one who made the decision was Fudge. He was the Minister of Magic and theoretically the most powerful man in England.
But it’s certain that Fudge’s approval rating has plummeted.
But it is better to go down than to lose the hat directly.
Dudley sighed: "If they really strictly abide by the rules of the Ministry of Magic, do not attack Hogwarts students, and do not provoke me."
"Professor Dumbledore, I have a small opinion. I don't quite agree with your repeated forbearance to the Ministry of Magic. You are the Headmaster of Hogwarts, and your responsibility should be to ensure the safety of all students." Responsible."
"Don't forget, in addition to being the Headmaster of Hogwarts, you are also the Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot."
The Wizengamot is a magical organization established earlier than the Ministry of Magic. It is an organization that is similar to a combination of a court and a parliament, and the Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot is the highest official of the organization.
In theory, the power is no less powerful than that of the Ministry of Magic.
But Dumbledore, as chief executive, is in a state of complete decentralization.
The Headmaster of Hogwarts and the Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot are comparable to the top level of the Ministry of Magic, and politically they are not inferior to Fudge.
Knowing something about Dumbledore's deeds, he understood that Dumbledore no longer wanted to participate in any power struggle.
But this kind of thing is not something you can do without participating in if you don’t want to.
The great sage Brother Xun said it well: 'As long as a person is alive, he is in the world of rivers and lakes. Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes. '
As long as Dumbledore lived, he was still in a power struggle, even if he made it clear that he was tired of the center of power.
There is no use in escaping.
Because others don't think so.
Power can blind people and make them lose themselves.
After saying these words, Dudley left the principal's office and gave Fawkes a bag of rations before leaving.
He could understand Dumbledore, but he didn't agree.
After Dudley left, the portraits of past principals came to life, and they all expressed their opinions.
"Dumbledore, I think he is right." A steady female voice sounded, which surprised the principals around.
She rarely expresses her opinions and usually just listens.
But she was unanimously respected by all the principals.
Her name - Phyllida Spohr, is the oldest among the portraits of principals in the past, and the first principal to have a portrait.
"In my time, there was no Ministry of Magic, only the Wizards' Council."
"The Wizarding Council is responsible for managing the magical world, while Hogwarts is responsible for teaching outstanding wizards. The division of labor is clear and does not interfere with each other."
"Only the Headmaster has the final say in Hogwarts, even the Speaker has to step aside."
"There is nothing wrong with Dumbledore's emphasis on power, but what we should do more is face it instead of staying away from it."
"Phyllida, I understand, I know," Dumbledore said softly, his voice getting smaller and smaller: "Let me think about it."

Sirius's intrusion into Gryffindor caused quite a stir.
The little wizards were discussing this matter whenever they had free time, and the news became more and more suspenseful.
Some people say that Sirius was able to transform into a flowering bush, evade the pursuit of dementors, and sneak into Hogwarts.
Some people say that Sirius walks through the walls like a ghost, so the dementors can't find any trace of him.
The most outrageous thing is that Sirius turned into dried potion after entering the castle and hid it in Snape's potion room.
What he said was so serious that he even figured out the magic spell to turn it into an air-drying potion.
Dudley scoffed at this statement. If Sirius dared to hide there, Snape would definitely not mind slicing him into pieces, mashing them up, and throwing them into the cauldron to cook him into a pile of mush.
However, rumors are just rumors, and they are only spread among young wizards. The reality may be completely different from their imagination.
Is it possible that Sirius just entered Hogwarts through some secret passage in Hogwarts Castle?
It's impossible, the little wizards think this is not exciting at all, not magical at all, not magical at all.
Therefore, this conjecture has little market among young wizards.
Even if this is the guess closest to the truth.
Days passed and there was still no trace of Sirius. The guy seemed to have disappeared, appearing and then not appearing again.
During this period, Defense Against the Dark Arts went from being the least popular subject to the most popular subject.
Professor Lupine's courses are really interesting. They are basically practical courses and will never be repeated. They are all about dealing with various dark magic creatures.
For example, the red hat is a bloodthirsty, cruel and very difficult little monster with a danger level of 4X. It will appear immediately as soon as it smells blood in the wild and continuously attack travelers until the opponent dies.
For example, Kabbah is a magical aquatic creature that likes to eat human blood. It will drag lost people into the water and drown them before sucking their blood. The danger level is also 4X. Its image is similar to that of a monkey, and it is also nicknamed the water monkey.
Lupine tirelessly taught the young wizards the exquisite techniques for dealing with these dark magic creatures, which benefited everyone a lot.
Even Dudley praised Lupin's teaching style.
A lot of knowledge cannot be learned from books.
