Hearing what Dumbledore said, Sakurai Nanakawa immediately spoke up: "However, according to the survivors of the Uesugi family, the culprit who caused the Uesugi family to be massacred was your student, his name is Wentworth Grindelwald!"
At this point, Sakurai Nanakawa's eyes were fixed on Albus Dumbledore, while Dumbledore stared into Sakurai Nanakawa's eyes without any hesitation, and said slowly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Sakurai Nanakawa, I've said it before, there is no student named Sakurai Nanakawa in Hogwarts. There is only one Wentworth in Hogwarts, and that is Wentworth Dumbledore!"
At this point, before Sakurai Nanakawa and the others could speak again, Dumbledore spoke first and said again:
"Speaking of which, Mr. Sakurai Nanakawa, the student who represented our school in the Magic School Potions Championship, Wentworth Dumbledore, has been missing in Japan for a long time. I want to know, should the Japanese Ministry of Magic give us Hogwarts an explanation?!"
Hearing what Dumbledore said, Sakurai Nanakawa couldn't help but shook his head and said:
"Principal Dumbledore, our Japanese Ministry of Magic has already explained this matter! The student named Wentworth fled after slaughtering the Uesugi family. We are here to..."
This time, Dumbledore simply interrupted Sakurai Nanakawa before he could finish his words, and said angrily:
"What about the evidence? Just relying on the so-called confession of a wizard from the Uesugi family? Not to mention, I don't believe it at all. The Uesugi family's crime was done by my student. Even if it was done by my student, he should have been convicted after a public trial. What you and I say doesn't count!"
"And now, it is an indisputable fact that my students are missing in Japan. If the Japanese Ministry of Magic cannot give me a reasonable explanation, then I am sorry to suggest that the International Confederation of Wizards send an investigation team to Japan! I think this is also reasonable, isn't it?"
Hearing Dumbledore's words, Sakurai Nanakawa immediately revealed a helpless bitter smile.
Although he knew that Dumbledore was making excuses, Sakurai Nanakawa had no idea what to do.
After all, when a powerful and high-ranking person starts to act like a rogue without regard for his dignity, it is indeed an extremely tricky thing.
Seeing that Sakurai Nanakawa was also defeated, Bruce Fontana, who had gradually calmed down, stood up and said:
"Okay, Headmaster Dumbledore, even if you want to suggest that the International Confederation of Wizards send an investigation team to Japan, that is a matter for the future. Let's finish the investigation of Hogwarts first!"
"As for now, why don't we have dinner together?"
Hearing Bruce Fontana's words, Dumbledore glanced at Bruce Fontana and said:
"Okay, wait a moment. I'll have the house-elf bring you dinner later."
Bruce Fontana was stunned when he heard Dumbledore's words, and then he said in disbelief: "You mean to say that we should have dinner here?!"
Bruce Fontana pointed at the shabby tables and chairs around him, his face full of shock.
Dumbledore nodded without hesitation and said confidently:
"Today, Hogwarts is holding the last dinner before Christmas. The hall is full of students. There is really no room for you!"
"Or, you can wait until my students have eaten and left, and then go to the auditorium to eat?"
Hearing Dumbledore's words, Bruce Fontana's face immediately turned red with anger, and he said, "Principal Dumbledore, we are guests after all. Is this the way Hogwarts treats guests?"
Dumbledore said as a matter of course: "The conditions in the school are difficult, so you just have to make do with it for now! When most of the students leave tomorrow, you can go to the school hall for dinner!"
Then, without waiting for Bruce Fontana and others to react, Dumbledore turned around and left without any intention of staying.
It can be said that Dumbledore almost wrote "We are not welcome" on his face.
"What should we do now?"
Hearing Sakurai Nanakawa's question, Bruce Fontana put away the indignation on his face and said in a calm tone:
"Nothing, it's expected, isn't it? Although we didn't expect Dumbledore to be so open about it."
"However, judging from Dumbledore's appearance, he must have made full preparations. If that's the case, I'm afraid we won't gain anything in Hogwarts. Let's go to another place!"
Hearing Bruce Fontana's words, Sakurai Nanakawa couldn't help but repeat with a puzzled look on his face: "Change place? Mr. Bruce Fontana, where do you want to change to?"
Bruce Fontana sneered and said:
"The British Ministry of Magic!"
Seeing the puzzled looks of Sakurai Nanakawa and others, Bruce Fontana began to explain:
"The International Confederation of Wizards was able to pass a motion so easily and send an investigation team to Hogwarts. What do you think is the most important reason?"
Sakurai Nanakawa quickly said with admiration:
"Of course, that's all thanks to Mr. Bruce Fontana for doing justice for us Japanese!"
Hearing what Sakurai Nanakawa said, Bruce Fontana shook his head and said:
"The most important reason is that the British Ministry of Magic remained silent on this matter! They did not protect the interests of Hogwarts at all. Haha, what an interesting thing!"
After hearing Bruce Fontana's explanation, Sakurai Nanakawa and others suddenly realized.
Bruce Fontana then went on to say:
"Let's go to the British Ministry of Magic and meet Minister Fudge. I think there must be a lot of information that we are interested in in the British Ministry of Magic!"
Afterwards, the group did not say goodbye to Dumbledore, but left Hogwarts directly and went to the British Ministry of Magic.
The Christmas holiday at Hogwarts officially began. Cassandra and others gathered in the box of the Hogwarts Express, but the atmosphere was a little silent.
As soon as he arrived at the London train station, Draco saw Lucius Malfoy and Narcissa from the window. They actually came to pick up the car together.
After hugging his parents, Draco pointed at the people behind him and introduced them to Lucius and Narcissa.
Somewhat to everyone's surprise, Lucius seemed particularly enthusiastic today. Even Hermione was warmly welcomed by Lucius, which not only made Hermione breathe a sigh of relief, but also made Draco feel relieved.
When Lucius saw Harry Potter, he pulled Harry to his side, and finally held Harry's hand all the way, and the group walked towards Malfoy Manor.
