Soon, it was the last dinner before Christmas. As usual, Albus Dumbledore gave a short speech before the dinner and then left.

Meanwhile, in the audience, Cassandra felt anxious when she saw Dumbledore turning around and leaving without even attending the dinner.

You know, Cassandra has been waiting for Dumbledore for a long time. Cassandra has always wanted to ask Dumbledore if there is any news about Wentworth, but since she met Dumbledore that day, every time Cassandra went to see Dumbledore, she was not able to get what she wanted.

Considering that tonight was the last dinner before the holidays, Dumbledore would definitely attend, so Cassandra waited early in the Hogwarts Great Hall.

Cassandra was seen jogging towards Dumbledore, attracting many gazes along the way, but Cassandra didn't care at all.

Finally, when Cassandra caught up with Dumbledore from behind, Dumbledore obviously had no intention of talking to Cassandra, but directly said: "Miss Cassandra, if you don't have anything particularly urgent, if you have anything, please talk to me after you come back from vacation!"

After saying that, Dumbledore was about to leave again, but Cassandra simply stopped in front of Dumbledore and said breathlessly:

"Principal Dumbledore, I want to know if you have any news about Wentworth recently?"

Hearing Cassandra's question, Dumbledore looked at Cassandra deeply, then shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Cassandra, I haven't heard from Wentworth recently. If you are stopping me for this matter, then you can go back and enjoy the dinner now. I really have something important to do."

After saying this, Dumbledore walked past Cassandra without waiting for her to speak again and disappeared in a hurry at the end of the corridor of Hogwarts.

"Don't waste your energy. If Headmaster Dumbledore really wanted to tell us, he would have told us long ago!"

At this time, Luna's voice came from behind Cassandra. Obviously, when Luna saw Cassandra chasing Dumbledore, she followed her immediately.

After hearing Luna's words, Cassandra nodded without comment, but she said, "Principal Dumbledore's eyes told me that he must know something, but he is hiding it from me! I even think he is avoiding me!"

Cassandra looked in the direction where Dumbledore disappeared, feeling a little heavy-hearted.

Dumbledore did hide the news about Wentworth from Cassandra, but he did not avoid her. The reason why Dumbledore left in a hurry was because he really had something important to do, because the investigation team of the International Confederation of Wizards had arrived! Dumbledore met the so-called investigation team of the International Confederation of Wizards in an abandoned classroom at Hogwarts. The leader was Bruce Fontana, from the United States.

In fact, it is extremely rare for the International Confederation of Wizards to send out investigation teams for certain special reasons. For example, in 1926, due to a number of inexplicable explosions in New York, the International Confederation of Wizards suspected that this was related to Gellert Grindelwald's attacks in Europe, so it sent an investigation team to the United States.

However, this is the first time in history that an investigation team has been sent into a school to investigate a student.

When Dumbledore walked into the abandoned classroom, the first person to greet him was Bruce Fontana, the head of the International Confederation of Wizards' investigation team.

Speaking of which, the wizard named Bruce Fontana has a very unusual origin. He was one of the twelve Aurors who founded the Magical Congress of the United States of America. He is a direct descendant of Thedad Fontana, and Thedad Fontana is one of only two Aurors among these twelve Aurors who lived to old age.

Serdad Fontana walked straight towards Dumbledore and said sarcastically, "It seems that Headmaster Dumbledore is really busy. We have been waiting here for an hour and finally meet you, Headmaster Dumbledore!"

Dumbledore did not take Theddard Fontana's tone seriously. Although Dumbledore was the president of the International Confederation of Wizards, the International Confederation of Wizards was not a one-man show under Dumbledore.

Like the Ministries of Magic in many countries, the International Confederation of Wizards is also full of factions, and they often argue fiercely over certain proposals.

There are also many powerful senators in the International Confederation of Wizards, and most of their strength comes from the strength of the Ministry of Magic behind them.

The reason why Dumbledore was able to stand out among these people and become the president of the International Confederation of Wizards was entirely because he was Albus Dumbledore.

At this time, facing the somewhat aggressive Serdad Fontana, Dumbledore answered very politely:

"That's true. You know, I have many duties and I'm naturally very busy!"

Hearing Dumbledore's answer, Serdad Fontana couldn't help but choked. Serdad Fontana knew that Dumbledore was reminding him not to forget that he was not only the headmaster of Hogwarts, but also its chairman.

Serdad Fontana's face flushed instantly. He pointed at the worn-out tables and chairs around him and said loudly, "Then, can Headmaster Dumbledore find us a suitable lounge? That's ok, right?"

Dumbledore responded with regret: "I'm sorry, Hogwarts is a magic school, not the British Ministry of Magic. We don't have any rooms like the reception room for foreign guests!"

After hearing what Dumbledore said, even though Serdad Fontana was well-informed, he didn't know how to respond.

At this time, an Asian member of the International Confederation of Wizards came forward. Compared with Serdad Fontana, this Asian member was much more humble. He first bowed to Dumbledore, and then said, "Mr. Chairman, it has been a long time since the Uesugi family in our Japanese wizarding world was almost completely slaughtered. Our Japanese Ministry of Magic urgently hopes that the International Confederation of Wizards can seek justice for the Uesugi family!"

In fact, the International Confederation of Wizards, under the collusion of Theddard Fontana, had already passed a proposal to send an investigation team to Hogwarts. However, it was rejected by Dumbledore on the grounds that it would interfere with the normal teaching order of Hogwarts. Dumbledore insisted that even if an investigation team was to be sent, it had to wait until the Hogwarts holiday time.

So, this is also the reason why the other party came to Hogwarts at this time, because after today's dinner, Hogwarts officially entered the Christmas holiday.

After hearing what the other party said, Dumbledore nodded slightly and said, "Mr. Sakurai Nanakawa, I am deeply sorry for what happened to the Uesugi family, but I don't think what you call justice is in Hogwarts."
