The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 307 Auror Contact Point

This is not the first time that the Dementors have gotten out of control, nor is it the first time that they have extended their claws to innocent students.

During the temporary inspection on the train at the beginning of the school term, the Dementors failed to control their desires and harassed the students returning to school. Today, they broke into the stadium for no reason to hold a party, affecting the progress of the Quidditch game and even hurting a student. No wonder Dumbledore was furious.

At the start-of-term dinner, Dumbledore had emphasized the danger of Dementors, who could not distinguish between fugitives to be hunted and innocent passers-by. Dementors simply exuded the deepest malice and greedily demanded from everyone.

Azkaban had a fugitive, and Dementors were stationed in Hogwarts. This was an order issued by the stupid Ministry of Magic, and Dumbledore could not openly disobey it. As a result, these two intrusions occurred, which caused a situation that Dumbledore did not want to see.

The heavy rain was still falling, as if someone had opened a hole in the sky, allowing the water from the Milky Way to pour down to the earth.

Dumbledore left the school in anger, and his anger damaged his liver and left cheek. The headmaster is over a hundred years old, and it is not a good thing to have too much liver fire.

The road leading to Hogsmeade was very muddy, and Ada followed Dumbledore, taking one step forward and one step back.

Ada didn't know what was going on. One second she was praising Dumbledore in her heart and expressing her admiration for him, and the next second she was dragged out of the school by the headmaster and followed him to cause trouble for the Ministry of Magic.

No, Mr. Principal, do you think this plaid is suitable for my skinny little body?

Ada naturally wouldn't tell Dumbledore about her inner complaints. She wasn't really afraid of the Ministry of Magic. She just didn't quite understand why the headmaster wanted to bring her along.

Is this telling the Ministry of Magic that Cui is also a complete Dumbledore's man? This treatment is probably on par with Harry Potter. Grandma, I have made it!

Dumbledore was naturally unaware of what was going on in Ada's mind. He had his own ideas for bringing Ada along, and they were not what Ada thought.

Dumbledore, who was very angry, led the way in big strides, and Ada, who was confused, followed in small steps behind. The two of them walked into a small path in Hogsmeade village and stopped in front of an inconspicuous building.

The principal's anger level had reached its limit. He entered the building in a way that was extremely inconsistent with his status. He directly blew the door open.

As the wooden door broke into pieces, cold wind and rain instantly poured into the building. The people inside were stimulated by the wind and rain and began to curse!
"Who is it? You must have taken the wrong medicine!"

"Fxxk!"

“Holy shxt!”

Shouting and cursing were no longer enough to vent their anger, and the people in the house drew their wands, ready to teach this ignorant thief who broke into the house an unforgettable lesson.

However, when Dumbledore walked into the room, these people put away their wands instantly and the indignation on their faces disappeared, as if they were not the ones who had just cursed.

"Professor, why are you here?" A man came up and asked attentively. The man looked to be about 40 years old and had a hairstyle common among British men.

Ada, who was standing behind Dumbledore, took off the hood covering her head and stuck her head out to look at everything in the room.

The furnishings in the house were simple, with five chairs, a table, and a burning fireplace that gave off warmth. A large copper kettle was hanging above the flames, and the boiling hot water was constantly lifting the lid of the kettle. A deck of cards was thrown on the table, and it was obvious that these people had just been playing cards.

There were five chairs, but only four people in the room. The man talking to Dumbledore was the oldest, and the remaining three were probably only in their thirties.

If you want to know how Ada tells their age, she just looks at the amount of hair on their heads and the wrinkles on their faces.

Dumbledore just glanced at the man but said nothing. What Ada could observe, Dumbledore could also see, and the cards on the table were too obvious.

The other two men invited Dumbledore into the house and gave him a chair. It was cool under the big tree. Although Ada was wearing a school robe, she was treated as a guest of honor by these men and was given a chair.

However, neither Dumbledore nor Ada sat down. Ada waved her wand and conjured up two luxurious armchairs. Then she and the headmaster sat down. Seeing the two "uninvited guests" sitting down, the others began to serve tea and water, and one of them ran over to fix the wooden door. When the wooden door reappeared in its place, the temperature in the room began to rise gradually.

"Professor, what can I do for you?" The bald man asked again attentively, "We will do whatever you want us to do."

Dumbledore still ignored him, but turned to Ada and said, "Why did the Ministry of Magic send Dementors around the school?"

"The Ministry of Magic's goal is to hunt down the Azkaban fugitive Sirius Black, Professor." Ada fully cooperated with her professor's performance and did not choose to turn a blind eye.

Dumbledore nodded and continued, "Why not send the Aurors?"

"They may be too busy playing cards to care about it!" Ada said, looking at the cards on the table. There were a few silver Sickles next to the cards.

The four men in the room blushed. All four of them were Aurors, stationed in Hogsmeade, responsible for cooperating with the Dementors to capture the fugitive Black.

But the four of them neglected their duties, squatted here playing cards, and were caught red-handed by the headmaster of Hogwarts.

They were not the only ones sent to Hogsmeade, but they were on duty today. Although the main force in the capture work was the Dementors, the Aurors also had their responsibilities.

The bald man's forehead began to sweat. There was nothing wrong with slacking off, but the mistake was that he was caught slacking off. He stammered and tried to explain, saying, "Professor... that... Professor, we..."

Dumbledore waved his hand to stop him. Dumbledore said, "Mr. Walker, please put away the cards. They are an eyesore to me. Also, I want to see Cornelius Fudge."

"No problem!" Auror Walker said, "I will go and ask Minister Fudge right away."

Walker turned and left the house, walking out the door in the pouring rain. The remaining three men immediately put away the cards and silver coins, and they all thanked Dumbledore in their hearts for his kindness and for letting them go.

A few minutes later, Walker came back. To show his hard work, Mr. Auror even drenched himself. He said carefully, "Professor, the Minister is in a meeting, but he said he would come as soon as possible."

Dumbledore didn't say anything, but opened his palm towards Ada and moved his fingers.

Ada was helpless. She was exploited by her own headmaster. She wanted to say that she didn't bring it, but Dumbledore would never believe her.

Pursing her lips, Ada took out a large piece of chocolate from her pocket, unwrapped it, and carefully broke off a small piece and placed it in Dumbledore's palm.

The headmaster didn't even raise his eyelids, he directly snatched the larger piece from Ada's hand. And to show his generosity, Dumbledore broke off a piece and gave it back to Ada.

Although the Aurors didn't know why Dumbledore rushed over in such a rage, nor did they know why Dumbledore wanted to meet the Minister here, they were really stunned by the chocolate war between the old and the young.

That was Dumbledore. If he wanted to eat chocolate, Walker would have wanted to buy some Honeydukes for him, but the girl in front of him was like a miser and only broke off a piece of chocolate as big as a fingernail.

Oh my god! Are today's students' brains so useless? If you don't want to use them, you can donate them to people in need!

Wait, long golden hair, emerald eyes, a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old... Walker and the other three immediately thought of Ada's identity.

In the Auror circle, Ada was a little famous. The fact that Minerva McGucken had a conflict with a group of Aurors for her was enough to show her uniqueness.

No wonder Dumbledore brought a student here. So that's why.
