Chapter 79: Daily Prophet Headlines



Wentworth returned to the dormitory, but did not rest immediately. He yawned just now for Cedric and Green to see.

Wentworth immediately took out his quill and writing paper and wrote down everything that had happened tonight. He planned to send the letter to Rosier and Abernathy by owl when he had time tomorrow.

In Wentworth's eyes, Rosier, Abernathy and others are also masters of black magic, and they might know the origins of this group of dark wizards tonight.

While Wentworth was writing furiously in his dormitory, another person had already placed the finished manuscript on the desk of the editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet.

The editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet seemed a little hesitant when he looked at the manuscript written by Rita Skeeter, but after Rita Skeeter's persuasion, the editor-in-chief agreed, called his subordinates over, handed Rita Skeeter's manuscript to them, and asked them to put this report on the front page tomorrow.

Along with Rita Skeeter's manuscript, there was also a magical photo handed over to the printing workshop of the Daily Prophet. In the photo, Wentworth was hiding behind Dumbledore with a look of surprise on his face.

The next morning, Wentworth, carrying the letter he had just written the night before, went to the Hogwarts Great Hall with Cedric for breakfast, intending to send the letter via an owl addressed to Hogwarts afterwards.

Just as Wentworth, Cedric and others were having breakfast in the Hogwarts Great Hall, suddenly, many owls fluttered their wings and flew in, bringing various letters to the students of Hogwarts, and of course, today's "Daily Prophet".

At this time, the Hogwarts Great Hall was bustling with activity. The students of Hogwarts who had received letters or gifts were happily discussing something.

Suddenly, from somewhere, a curse sounded, attracting the attention of many people.

Afterwards, discussions continued to be heard in the Hogwarts Great Hall, and amidst the chaotic discussions, there were occasional curses.

Wentworth, who was eating with his head down, couldn't help but frown when he heard the discussions around him. He looked up and happened to see Green holding this issue of the Daily Prophet in his hand. He walked over quickly.

Seeing this, Wentworth's heart moved, and before Green spoke, he spoke first:

"What? Am I in the newspaper again?"

Upon hearing this, Green paused, then nodded with a wry smile and said, "Yes, congratulations, Wentworth. You have appeared on the Daily Prophet twice before the end of your first year. This time it's on the front page, although you were just there by the way."

As Green spoke, he handed the Daily Prophet to Wentworth. Wentworth took the newspaper and saw the photo on the front page at first glance.

It has to be said that, as a well-known journalist, although Rita Skeeter became famous in a somewhat inglorious way, her basic skills as a journalist are still solid, as can be seen from this candid photo.

In the photo, Wentworth is hiding behind Dumbledore with a pair of surprised eyes. This is the scene when Rita Skeeter first appeared last night. Because it was unknown who suddenly appeared at that time, and Rita Skeeter also used the flash of the camera, it looked particularly strange in the dark night.

Therefore, Dumbledore deliberately protected Wentworth behind him.

In this issue of the Daily Prophet, the report written by Rita Skeeter has a very attractive title. A bold headline clearly reads: The mystery of Dumbledore's refusal to become Minister of Magic.

To be honest, after seeing this title, even Wentworth couldn't help but want to read on and find out what was going on, let alone other readers.

At the beginning of the article, Rita Skeeter wrote that according to a senior official of the Ministry of Magic, the Ministry of Magic had invited Dumbledore many times to serve as the British Minister of Magic, but Dumbledore refused every time.

Dumbledore's reason was that he also had to serve as the headmaster of Hogwarts, and if he were to serve as the Minister of Magic of the United Kingdom at the same time, he would be too busy to handle everything.

Perhaps many people would be curious, could it be that the Minister of the British Ministry of Magic is not as attractive to Dumbledore as the headmaster of a school?

Rita Skeeter then wrote a lengthy account of several possible reasons why Dumbledore might have refused the position of Minister for Magic.

But at the end, Rita Skeeter wrote:

But yesterday, reporters discovered another possible reason. Late last night, Dumbledore brought a new student from Hogwarts to a dense forest in southern England.

As for why Dumbledore brought a freshman here so late, Dumbledore told reporters personally that this was a secret that could not be told!

Moreover, after investigation, the reporter found that this was not the first time that Dumbledore took the freshman out late at night. The last time, Dumbledore even took the freshman to watch the Quidditch World Cup final while teaching at Hogwarts.

As for why Dumbledore always brings this freshman with him, after careful observation by the reporter, the biggest feature of this freshman is that he is handsome. Although he is still young, the noble and elegant temperament of this freshman can no longer be constrained by his age.

And something happened last night in the dense forest where Dumbledore was. A group of wizards mistakenly entered the woods, which made Dumbledore furious. An unknown magic comparable to black magic swept through the dense forest.

The destructive power caused by this magic even attracted Rufus, the new head of the Auror Office of the British Ministry of Magic, to personally lead a large number of Aurors to the scene, and only then was the situation barely under control.

But after this, only one person was left of the group of wizards who had strayed into the jungle, and he was cast a forgetfulness spell, causing him to completely forget what happened tonight. We have reason to guess that someone didn't want him to tell the world what he saw tonight.

Seeing this, Wentworth threw the newspaper in his hand onto the table in front of him. Even without reading the rest of the article, Wentworth could see the sinister intentions of this report.

Last night, when Wentworth saw Rita Skeeter appear at the scene, he guessed that Rita Skeeter might write nonsense, but he didn't expect that she was so bold that she actually wanted to directly ruin Dumbledore's reputation for life!
