MTL - Study Days at Hogwarts-Chapter 1299 A Good Helper for Death Eaters

  Chapter 1299 Death Eaters' Good Helper

   "Ma'am!"

  A somewhat timid figure stood outside the office of the Director of the Muggle-Born Registration Committee. She hesitated for a moment before raising her hand and knocking on the wooden door.

   "What is it, Mafalda?"

  Umbridge gave his assistant a false smile.

   "That..." Mafalda Hopkirk hesitated to speak.

   "Speak directly!" Umbridge raised his eyebrows.

   "What you've drawn my attention to is... well, news from the Prohibition of Misuse of Magic Office said that a large number of Hogwarts students recently violated the "Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards Act."

Mafalda seemed deeply uneasy about reporting this to her superiors, she was well aware of the dire consequences it could have, but... if she wanted to stay with the Ministry, there was nothing better choose.

   "You think it's the students who were expelled from Hogwarts?"

  Umbridge seemed to be aware of something, his eyes burst into a captivating light.

   "It seems that those people don't intend to accept the goodwill of the Ministry of Magic and go to the Muggle-Born Registration Committee for interviews." She looked up at her assistant and asked, "Can the Misuse of Magic Office be able to track their location?"

   "I, I don't know, I rushed over as soon as I got the news."

   Mafalda looked disturbed, she obviously knew what Umbridge was going to do.

"I need the Misuse of Magic Office to keep track of their whereabouts, and if Fudge asks, say it's my request." Umbridge stood up from his seat, went directly to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement to find Yaxley, and told him Talk about it.

   "You think that group of Muggle-born students is running around."

  Listening to Umbridge's report, Yaxley frowned slightly. After getting along with the woman in front of him for a few months, he had a new understanding of Umbridge's ruthlessness.

"I think the search team should be left to solve the problem." Umbridge reminded kindly: "Since Scrimgeour's death, most of the Aurors are unreliable, and they are likely to deliberately use water in the search for Muggle-borns. The fact that the prisoner escaped last time is the best proof."

"You're right, those Muggle-borns violated the "Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards Act" many times, and their destination is to break their wands and send them to Azkaban." Yaxley said sinisterly, "However, the Ministry of Magic is fair. I hope that after they are caught, there will be a fair trial."

  As far as Yaxley knows, many wizards who have been "fairly tried" by Umbridge are finished as soon as they enter Azkaban.

  The woman in front of her likes to use the Cruciatus Curse to torture prisoners to obtain evidence before they are tried. Those unlucky people who have been tortured to death by the Cruciatus Curse can hardly survive the terrible environment in Azkaban Prison.

   Sometimes Yaxley is surprised that Umbridge isn't a Death Eater.

   "I will, they will receive the most fair and just trial, I promise." Umbridge showed a hypocritical smirk.

  The two walked out of the office together and headed towards the Prohibition of Misuse of Magic office, planning to pay attention to this matter in person.

   After all, since the Ministry of Magic set up the Muggle-Born Registration Committee and began to try Muggle-borns, there haven't been too many fools who would go to the Ministry of Magic for trial.

   "Rufus, I hope I hear some good news from you."

Yaxley looked at the grass in front of him. Appointing Rufus Fudge was a helpless move. The Death Eaters had suffered heavy losses. They had to absorb some fresh blood, and letting the Fudge family who had resisted them join was considered the Dark Lord. new signal released.

  In fact, Cornelius Fudge, who was controlled by the Imperius Curse, was also working for the Ministry of Magic.

  Rufus Fudge looked at his immediate boss and said in a flattering tone: "It's apparition, and those students who respond to traces use apparition."

   "Oh." Yaxley raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What did you find?"

   "There is a dense reaction somewhere in Zongsi."

Rufus Fudge pointed to a certain place on the map, and handed Yaxley a piece of parchment with information, "There is no doubt that the group of underage wizards were gathered together. could happen unless..."

   "It's those students who have just been expelled, and someone plans to provide them with asylum." Umbridge smiled brightly. "Perhaps, we should send someone to invite them to the Ministry of Magic to accept an interview with the Muggle-Born Registration Committee."

   "I will let Dawlish lead the team there, and send two search teams to help him by the way." McNeill frowned and asked, "If necessary, I can lead the team myself."

   As one of the few surviving veteran Death Eaters, McNeill also got a big piece of cake in this power game. He went up several ranks from the Executioner of the Fantastic Beasts Regulation and Control Committee, and was directly transferred to run the Auror office.

   "Let Dawlish lead the team, I bet this matter is probably related to the Order of the Phoenix."

  Yaxley put down the parchment in his hand, stared at the large map of Britain in front of him, and asked Umbridge beside him.

   "Is there really no record of Muggle-borns now?

   "Unfortunately, according to Percy Weasley's report, all relevant records of the Ministry of Magic were destroyed by Scrimgeour," Umbridge said.

   "Is that Weasley believable?" Yaxley asked, frowning.

   "It should be credible. Percy Weasley had a falling out with his family a few years ago. He was a young man who liked power."

  Umbridge has an impression of Percy, and has also come into contact with him. He is a very ambitious person.

  Yaxley fell into a brief silence, and the records of Muggle-borns were destroyed. Although the Dark Lord's mission was indeed completed, it became more difficult to search for Muggle-borns hidden among Muggles.

   There is no doubt that it is obviously necessary to pull the mouse out of the mouse hole.

"Maybe, we can consider starting from Hogwarts, Snape is our old friend." Umbridge glanced at Yaxley and suggested, "Hogwarts should There will be relevant records, after all, they need to send letters to those people every year."

As if seeing the relationship between Yaxley and Snape, Umbridge took the initiative to take the job, "Leave this matter to me, even if Snape can't help it, we can still use magic With the power of the Ministry, you can always think of a way. Maybe Scrimgeour can hide or destroy that list, but the person who recorded those things in the first place can't be killed at the same time. To get what we need out of their heads."

   "You are always so reliable, this matter is left to you."

  Yaxley looked at Umbridge who took the initiative to take the task in surprise, and nodded in agreement. He liked this kind of worry-free subordinate.

  That afternoon, they received a report from Dawlish.

   The Auror team found no other Muggle-borns near the designated location.

However, they used tracking magic, and all signs indicated that the group of people were nearby and might be hiding, but the cracking team of the Ministry of Magic could not find the hiding place of the group of people. They suspected that the group of people were hiding under the protection of the Loyalty Curse. in the house.

   "By the way, I remembered. Yaxley seemed to think of something, and suddenly said: "That is the headquarters of the Defense Association. "

   "Defense Association?"

  Umbridge wondered where he had heard the name.

   "The organization established by the Mudblood?" McNeil frowned, suddenly feeling that this matter was a bit tricky.

   "It must be protected by the Fidelity Curse, so the Misuse of Magic Office only showed the location through traces, but Dawlish couldn't find their whereabouts,"

  Yaxley guessed why.

   "So, that Mudblood is providing shelter to those Muggle-born wizards?" Umbridge couldn't help frowning after hearing this name. She really had a bad impression of Albert.

  "It should be true. When my people captured Diggory's son and tortured him to find out the location of the Defense Association headquarters, I sent people there, but they couldn't find anything. I didn't expect that guy to not lie.

  If it is really the headquarters of the Defense Association, it seems that it is not surprising that it is protected by the Fidelity Curse. It can be done at that guy's level.

   "Do you need to send more people to monitor there?" McNeil asked Yaxley for advice.

  To be honest, he didn't really want to provoke that Mudblood, after all, there were already so many unlucky ones as precedents.

  Although Scrimgeour was dead, Albert Anderson was still an opponent not to be underestimated. Even the Dark Lord failed to kill him many times.

   Many people suspect that he is the next Dumbledore.

  Maybe, that Mudblood is not as good as the old immortal, but even if it is not as good as it is, they can't deal with it, not to mention that the other party is a master prophecy, that kind of guy is more dangerous.

   Now Albert has used the lives of countless Death Eaters to tell everyone that he is not easy to mess with.

   "Send a few casually over to monitor and see their reaction, and we need to speed up the search for the families of the Muggle-borns who were expelled from Hogwarts, and it is best to act before they take people away."

  Whether it is controlling the use or throwing people into Azkaban, they need to act as soon as possible.
