While the Hogwarts Sorting Ceremony was in progress, Cassandra's father, Thomas Raver, former head of the Auror Office of the British Ministry of Magic, was walking out of the Minister of Magic's office. The dim lights in the corridor reflected Thomas's uncertain face.
In the Minister's office, Fudge was sitting behind his desk, and Umbridge was standing in front of him. She said, "Minister Fudge, don't you dislike Rufus Scrimgeour? Why don't you take this opportunity to let Thomas Revault return to the Auror Office?"
Fudge looked at Umbridge coldly, and only when Umbridge lowered her head did Fudge slowly say:
"No matter how badly Rufus Scrimgeour did, he was the one I chose, and Thomas Reveau was not!"
"I understand, Minister!"
Umbridge responded very respectfully.
After walking through the stairs of the Ministry of Magic, Thomas Revaux arrived at the sixth underground floor of the Ministry of Magic and finally stopped in front of a dilapidated door. The label on the door read: Department of Magical Transportation and Floo Network Management Department.
Thomas Revo let out a long sigh, pushed the door and walked in, only to see that the whole room was in a mess. There were only two wizards with gray hair sitting bored at a table not far away, playing wizard chess.
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the two old wizards looked up and saw Thomas Revo, and said quickly:
"Welcome the new Director to Floo Network Administration!"
Although they said welcome, the two old wizards didn't even stand up.
That's right, after returning to the British Ministry of Magic, Thomas Reveau made up a story about what happened, passed a simple review by the Ministry of Magic, and finally returned to his job at the British Ministry of Magic.
However, Fudge used the excuse that the Auror Office had been taken over by Rufus Scrimgeour during the time Thomas Reveau disappeared, and in order to maintain the stability of the Auror Office, he transferred Thomas Reveau to the Floo Network Management Department as the director.
From the head of the Auror Office under the Department of Magical Law Enforcement to the head of the Floo Network Management Department under the Department of Magical Transportation, although it seems that Thomas Revo is just a lateral transfer, in fact, all wizards know that Thomas Revo's political career has ended in Fudge's hands! As if he did not notice the other party's rudeness, Thomas Revo walked to his seat step by step, sat down, and looked forward expressionlessly.
In the other corner of the room, the two old wizards were still playing wizard chess, with no intention of standing up to show off.
After an unknown amount of time, when the two old wizards rearranged the chessboard and were about to play another game, Thomas Revo suddenly thought of something, the corners of his mouth kept curling up, and finally, Thomas Revo burst into laughter.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Thomas Revo's laughter echoed throughout the room. The two old wizards looked at Thomas Revo in the room in surprise and looked at each other.
Then, Thomas Revo stood up calmly and began to clean up the room. Seeing this, the two old wizards looked at each other, and saw a hint of contempt in each other's eyes. Then they continued to play chess.
But what neither of them noticed was that behind them, the look in Thomas Revo's eyes was gradually becoming colder, as if he had made some kind of decision.
At the same time, when the sorting ceremony was over, Wentworth, Cedric and others enjoyed a sumptuous opening dinner. Then Dumbledore ordered the prefects to take all the students back to their respective dormitories and announced the end of the dinner.
Wentworth first greeted the familiar professors around him. Except for Snape who still had a cold expression, the other professors asked Wentworth a few questions with smiles on their faces. After all, teachers in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, have always been particularly fond of students who study well and are obedient.
Then, Wentworth spoke to Dumbledore without reservation: "Principal Dumbledore, I want to ask you something. Is it convenient for you?"
Dumbledore smiled kindly and replied:
"Of course, Wentworth, come with me!"
Afterwards, under the leadership of Dumbledore, the two returned to the headmaster's office at Hogwarts. Dumbledore first waved his hand and gave Wentworth a portion of vanilla pudding, then sat back in his seat and quietly watched Wentworth who was tasting the vanilla pudding.
Wentworth ate his vanilla pudding while saying, "Principal Dumbledore, my mission has been accomplished. Harry Potter has been safely delivered to Hogwarts!"
Dumbledore smiled and nodded, and said, "Thank you very much, Wentworth. You know, Harry's childhood was not very good. I think that letting him get in touch with his classmates in Hogwarts in advance can help him better integrate into Hogwarts!"
Wentworth nodded indifferently, lowered his head to eat vanilla pudding, and asked, "Principal Dumbledore, you really care about Harry!"
When Dumbledore heard what Wentworth said, he couldn't help but sigh and said:
"Yes, Harry's parents left us forever in order to fight against that man, leaving Harry alone! But their sacrifice was worth it, and justice finally prevailed."
Hearing Dumbledore's words, Wentworth suddenly laughed. After a moment, Wentworth raised his head, looked at Dumbledore, and said slowly: "Justice finally triumphs? Of course, only the winner is justice!"
After hearing what Wentworth said, Dumbledore fell silent for a moment, but on the wall of the Hogwarts headmaster's office, countless portraits of Hogwarts headmasters began to whisper.
Wentworth looked at Dumbledore quietly. He found that since he saw Quirrell still appearing in Hogwarts, he seemed to have become braver.
Wentworth was not worried at all because Dumbledore did not notice anything unusual about Quirrell. You know, in the original book, in Snape's memories, Dumbledore reminded him to pay attention to Quirrell.
But Dumbledore didn't seem to intend to continue discussing this topic. After a moment, Dumbledore raised his head, looked at Wentworth and asked:
"You didn't come to me tonight to talk about Harry, did you?"
Wentworth nodded and asked:
"I want to know, is there any other way to open the vault in Gringotts that can only be opened through the blood ritual?"
