Chapter 385 Explosive Headline News! Minister Scrimgeour: You dare blow up the Ministry of Magic too?!
The next morning.
Owls, carrying copies of the Daily Prophet, fell like snowflakes, covering the sky.
A bombshell news story stunned countless wizards!
It caused countless people to spit out their tea!
"Merlin! Am I seeing things? Or am I hallucinating? The collapse of Azkaban? Is it that Azkaban?"
"Last night, Azkaban suffered a devastating attack, causing the entire tower to collapse... All the prisoners perished, without exception..."
"A dark wizard attacking a dark wizard? What brilliant strategist could do such a thing!"
"This is hilarious! Let me see who did this... Ethan Vincent?!"
In a short time.
The infamous "Ethan Vincent," who recently bombed Gringotts, has once again swept through the streets and alleys of the wizarding world.
The dark wizards of Knockturn Alley looked at each other, wondering when they had acquired such a powerful ally.
The Leaky Cauldron bar was bustling with noise, as believers dressed in black robes and wearing eagle-beak masks chanted "The God of Light has appeared!"
"I've hated Azkaban for ages! How can Dementors be loyal? It wouldn't be surprising if they all broke out one day!"
"Long live Ethan Vincent! The best way to stop the escape is to kill those despicable Death Eaters beforehand! After all, who knows how many lives they've taken!"
"Well done! Savior! Let the Ministry of Magic have a headache! Hahaha!"
One by one, glasses were raised, clinking together amidst cheers, spilling golden liquid.
Hogwarts, in the Great Hall.
Professor Snape spat out a mouthful of tea in front of all the teachers and students.
After staring at the big-character poster for a few seconds, he replaced his morning tea with "oolong tea" that could be lit on fire.
In a reverent silence, his face ashen, he gulped down the entire drink.
Ministry of Magic, Minister's office.
"Snapped!"
Minister Scringer slammed the newspaper onto his desk, glaring at it with a huff and a puff, his face flushed red.
It's as if this newspaper is some kind of blasphemous article left over from ancient times.
It's enough to make you explode at the sight of it.
[Shocking! The collapse of the ancient holy city of Azkaban! Who is the culprit?!]
Last night, a shocking and explosive news broke! The supposedly "indestructible" Azkaban collapsed entirely!
Just like the self-proclaimed "safest Hogwarts in the UK" and "most secure Gringotts in the UK," it's unsettling.
The killer has been identified as Ethan Vincent, the new savior of the wizarding world.
[The following is an interview with Mr. Stöger, one of the survivors:]
"Thank you, Ethan! Thank you, Mr. Dumbledore! Thank you, Merlin! I was wronged all along!! Ministry of Magic, why aren't you smiling now?"
[This is a report from MacArthur, our correspondent for this newspaper.]
"This is outrageous! Do they even respect the authority of the Ministry of Magic?!"
Minister Scringer roared, panting heavily.
He raised his wand and burned the newspaper to ashes!
Then, as if that wasn't enough, he lifted his foot and stomped on it several times!
They stomped on the paper until dust flew up and they could no longer find a single intact page before they stopped.
"6
'
The office was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
The members all lowered their heads, as quiet as quails, not daring to breathe.
A full minute or two later, Minister Scrimgeour took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Notify Prophet Japan to severely punish the reporter who wrote this report! They disregard the authority of the Ministry of Magic and only know how to fabricate stories!"
"yes!"
One of the members immediately responded, turned around, and jogged out.
"Ethan Vincent...you're really something! Do you really think the wizarding world will allow you to wreak havoc like this?"
Minister Scrinjee continued, several veins bulging on his forehead.
He looked up, his eyes flashing with a chilling light, and ordered, "Summon Ethan Vincent immediately! Set the second trial for today!"
The staff member was taken aback and said, "However, the judge who was scheduled to be there is currently on a business trip in Germany and hasn't arrived yet."
"I am the judge in this trial!!"
Minister Scringer roared, slamming his fists on the table.
The member trembled, quickly lowered his head, and stammered, "Yes, yes!"
'
'
A moment of silence.
Minister Scrinzer closed his eyes again and waved his hand, saying:
'
The second trial will be held tonight. The Wizengamot jury, scheduled to attend, should prepare.
"
"If Ethan doesn't attend... issue an arrest warrant immediately!"
"Yes, Minister!"
Several members ran out in a hurry to write letters and relay orders.
Just then.
A clear voice rang out from the window: "No need for that, I'm right here."
Everyone: !!!
They turned their heads sharply and looked out the window in horror!
There sat Ethan Vincent, the owner of this now-famous name, leisurely by the window.
As if he had been sitting there for a long time, a faint smile appeared on his face as he leisurely looked at them.
Until then.
The Aurors hurriedly drew their wands and pointed them at the uninvited guest, utterly horrified!
If Ethan had attacked directly, everyone in this room would probably have been in trouble!
When exactly did it appear...?
Minister of Magic Scrimgeour, who replaced Fudge, narrowed his eyes.
Although startled, I quickly came to my senses.
Without flinching, he stared at the handsome figure by the window with his sharp, eagle-like eyes, a figure whose style seemed completely out of place.
His voice, as if squeezed out from between his teeth, uttered each word slowly and deliberately: "Ethan Vincent...!"
—My most formidable rival in my career!
Ethan: "Hello, hello, would you like an autograph?"
As he spoke, he solemnly took out a notebook and a pen.
Minister Scringer:
'
'
Can you be serious for once?
The iron-fisted minister panted heavily, like a little sister being harassed by a hooligan.
Gritting his teeth, he said, "Having committed so many crimes, how dare you still swagger into the Ministry of Magic..."
You are utterly shameless!
"A crime? Hmph~"
Ethan shifted his posture, opened his arms, and smiled gently and harmlessly, adopting a compassionate expression: "I'm just helping those sinners realize the last value of their lives. How can it be considered a sin?"
"You're just piling them together like you're raising poisonous insects, and you trust the Dementors that much? Do you believe that I can release them all with a single command?"
Minister Scringer:
'
'
Where did this kid get all these twisted theories from!
"Ha," Scrimgeour scoffed, "You mean, Azkaban might break out? And thanks to you, they were stopped?"
"There's a limit to nonsense! I think you're truly out of your mind!"
It's not that they might escape, but that they definitely will.
In the original work.
Bella and a group of criminals escaped from prison together, and also kidnapped a Dementor along the way.
Ethan really doesn't understand.
Why would these people in the Ministry of Magic believe that a creature they themselves fear would be completely loyal to them?
But further discussion is pointless.
Ethan gazed into the other's bloodshot eyes and said slowly, "See you at trial tonight."
Compared to Cornelius Fudge, who was a complete coward, he actually admired this overly cold and hard minister.
After all, in the original story, even when he was tortured to death by Voldemort, he did not reveal any information.
and.
Just look at those members trembling like little chicks, and you'll understand why they're hiding behind their "great achievements."
How brave it is for Minister Scrinje to insist on reviewing his own case.
Then.
Ethan waved his hand.
As if draped in an invisibility cloak, his figure vanished.
"...I will never let you succeed."
Minister Scrinje clenched his fist.
"Unless the Ministry of Magic also falls, I will bring your atrocities to an end in the courtroom tonight!!"
Gringotts, Azkaban.
That's all due to poor supervision by the managers, which allowed Ethan to take advantage of the situation.
The Ministry of Magic will never repeat the same mistake!
