Hogwarts: I graduated before the system came

"You and your men will be on standby around Hogwarts. If any unexpected situation occurs or other werewolves appear, you must be ready to provide support at any time. But remember, do not act rashly and follow orders in all actions."

The team leader nodded quickly: "Yes, Minister, we will be ready at any time."

The Werewolf Capture Project Team has not achieved any significant results over the years, especially allowing the werewolf Fenrir Greyback to commit many evil deeds almost unimpeded under the management of the Ministry of Magic.

He must perform well this time so that he can show his face in the leadership of the Ministry of Magic.

Fudge leaned back in his chair, stroking the armrest, his eyes filled with worry.

"I hope nothing goes wrong tonight, otherwise the entire wizarding world will be plunged into chaos. Let's take it one step at a time and proceed with caution."

I don't know whether he is worried about the wizarding world or whether he will be replaced by Dumbledore.

After the Auror team was assembled, Fudge and Scrimgeour set off for Hogwarts in the afternoon.

When they stepped into the gate of Hogwarts, they found that Dumbledore quickly walked directly from Hagrid's Hut, as if he had been waiting for them.

"Connelly, and Rufus, we're glad you came so early. The students are still taking their exams over there, so we won't disturb them.

Remus and the kids are actually playing on the Quidditch pitch. Would you like to go and see them? Do you need me to show you the way?"

Scrimgeour raised his eyebrows and said calmly:

"No, I think we are all familiar with Hogwarts. Let's go!"

After saying that, he limped towards the Quidditch field with a group of Aurors.

Looking at the backs of the people walking away, Fudge growled angrily:

"Albus, what on earth do you want to do? You know they are taking exams, why choose this time?"

Dumbledore said calmly with a serious expression:

"Connelly, calm down for a moment. I think this is a good time to make the announcement. First, announce it in a small circle, then publish it in the Daily Prophet, and finally have it authoritatively certified by the Ministry of Magic. Isn't this a good rhythm?

As for the students, I want to teach them a lesson this semester: when danger seems to be approaching, they should have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, rather than panic and blindly follow others.

As for whether it will affect their exams, if this little thing can affect their performance, then they should learn from it. If the wizarding world encounters danger in the future, I hope they will remember this lesson and be able to face it calmly.

At this point, Dumbledore raised his eyebrows. He had to admit that Douglas's twisted logic was useful, although he was also convinced by these words.

Fudge heard Dumbledore's words and immediately retorted:

“The wizarding world has always been friendly and peaceful. It is peaceful now and will remain so in the future. With me here, what dangers can there be in the wizarding world?

Dumbledore, you are only the headmaster of Hogwarts, not the Minister of Magic. I am the one who should worry about these matters!"

At this point, Fudge's tone suddenly weakened and he said:

"I'm sorry, Albus, that's not what I meant. I don't disagree with you doing this, but why didn't you discuss it with me before you did it? You know, I always respect your opinion."

Dumbledore lowered his head slightly and stared at Fudge and said:

"Connelly, how long has it been since we last communicated?"

Chapter 341 Sir, Times Have Changed

Scrimgeour led the Aurors to the Quidditch pitch.

There was a large square in the center of the venue, surrounded by students sitting around eating, drinking, and chatting.

"Kingsley, isn't today the day for the exam?"

"I heard that Hogwarts has introduced a new system of split exams, and some people will take the exam next semester."

“Luckily I graduated early!”

"I heard that the final exams at Hogwarts are getting harder and harder."

Scrimgeour looked at Lupin and Sirius in the middle of the field and snorted coldly:

"We're not here today to make you reminisce about the old days. Spread out and stay at the edge of the stands. Now is not the time to arrest anyone."

The Aurors instantly went into work mode and were distributed around according to tactics.

Noticing the situation at the entrance, Sirius put his arm around Lupin's shoulders and nodded at Scrimgeour:

"Moonface, they're coming!"

Lupin saw that it was Scrimgeour and said with a smile:

"We're old friends, let's go over and say hello."

It wasn't just them who noticed the entrance; the students saw it too.

"It's Rufus Scrimgeour, Head of the Auror Office."

"Are you here to arrest Professor Lupin?"

"Should we protect Professor Lupin?"

Seeing that the students were beginning to riot, Lupin quickly calmed them down:

"Just keep going. Rufus is an old friend. He's not here to arrest anyone. After all, catching werewolves is the job of the Werewolf Capture Project. He might be here to verify whether what I said is true or not. Well, this is a matter between me and the Ministry of Magic..."

Sirius curled his lips slightly:

"No, it's a matter between Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic. Just have fun by yourselves. You won't have this opportunity next semester."

After arranging the students, the two walked towards the entrance.

Seeing the two men walking towards him fearlessly, Scrimgeour sneered:

"Remus, didn't you ask us to conceal your identity last time? Why are you now openly revealing your identity? Are you tired of the food at Hogwarts?

Oh, why don't we see Sherlock Holmes? Didn't he come up with some new wolfsbane potion? He called us over, but he's not here?

As he spoke, his sharp eyes kept looking at Lupin through his gold-rimmed glasses. Based on his experience, he could see that Lupin did not have the irritability that a werewolf should have before the full moon, but was full of gentleness.

"Are you really a werewolf? Does that medicine really exist? Or did you fabricate a huge lie for some ulterior motive? If that's the case, you can ask your good friend what the situation is like in Azkaban."

Sirius's wand slid quickly into his hand, but Scrimgeour was faster than him, and before Sirius could raise his hand, Scrimgeour's wand was already raised.

"Mr. Black, I don't want to cause panic among the students. I think I have plenty of time to listen to your explanation before tonight."

Lupin stopped Sirius from speaking:

"Douglas is still invigilating. Tonight, you'll know whether everything is true or not. Padfoot, stay away. Don't forget what Douglas told you..."

Sirius snorted and put away his wand.

Scrimgeour also put away his wand and said doubtfully:

"What did Holmes say? Honestly, I don't believe that someone who has never taken an advanced potions class could have invented a new wolfsbane potion."

Sirius said disdainfully:

"Although Doug's character isn't great, his potion skills are on par with Lily Potter's. Even Snotlout...

I mean, even the Potions teacher at Hogwarts admits he's inferior. The reason Douglas didn't take the Advanced Potions class was simply because he thought he wasn't qualified to teach Douglas.

Lupin looked slightly embarrassed as he watched Sirius brag about Douglas and belittle Snape.

So he quickly interrupted the two of them:

"Rufus, if you're interested, I happen to have a modified version of the wolfsbane potion. I can explain it to you."

As he spoke, he walked towards the side of the podium, where there was a prepared table.

Lupin took out a box from his pocket and opened it to reveal potion bottles of five different colors neatly arranged inside.

Scrimgeour asked doubtfully:

"all these are?"

Sirius shrugged and said helplessly:

"You know, Doug is from Hufflepuff, so... ahem... he always has some strange taste requirements."

Lupin also laughed and explained:

"Of course, Douglas didn't do this rashly. Every action he took had its own purpose..."

Lupin then briefly recounted Douglas's theory.

Scrimgeour was stunned by what he heard. After all, he had never come into contact with anything from the East.

After Lupin finished his explanation, Scrimgeour, who was still thinking, walked directly towards the students. Because the students saw that they had been talking for so long, some of them were worried about Lupin and had begun to gather around them.

Sirius showed a rare socialite smile on his face:

"Oh, dear Rufus, my old friend, I have some magic props here. Would you like to know more about them?"

Scrimgeour took a step back, watching Sirius's expression change suddenly. He had been so tense just a moment ago, but now he was suddenly like this. Something must be wrong.

"Mr. Black, I heard that you became the first Head of the Hogwarts Academic Office. Congratulations."

Scrimgeour spoke carefully, his sharp eyes scanning Sirius.

As far as he knew, every member of the Black family was arrogant and conceited, especially this ruthless man who was able to swim back to Britain from Azkaban.

Sirius took out a donkey-skin bag from his pocket and said:

"It's all thanks to Headmaster Dumbledore's favor and the Ministry of Magic's support. Look, this is a dark magic detection radar... this is a phantom tracking device, a silent cloak, a shield-generating ring, instant binding handcuffs..."

Looking at Scrimgeour's dull eyes, Sirius raised his eyebrows proudly:

"Sir, times have changed!"

Looking at Scrimgeour's eyes, Sirius secretly sighed that it had been a long time since the wizarding world had seen new and powerful magic props.

Everyone is blindly pursuing ancient magic props, believing that only those ancient magics are the most powerful.

Muggles, on the other hand, have done very well in this regard and have been constantly updating their technology, especially in combat.

In the words of his boss, when facing war, Muggles will continue to develop new technologies to give themselves a major advantage in the war.

Whenever there is war, modern wizards will turn to look for ancient magic and ancient props.

In reality, ancient magic is not superior to modern magic; it's just that the two branches are different. Modern magic also has its own advantages, but we haven't developed it enough.

While I was still feeling proud of my Marauder's Map, the Muggle's electronic map navigation technology was slowly achieving the corresponding effect.

Of course, if possible, Sirius didn't want to do these things. Wouldn't it be better to train Harry slowly? After all, he had to work for Douglas for ten years.

Selling these magic props is also my job.

Chapter 342 I still have a way in Germany

In the afternoon.

The sky above the Quidditch pitch was so pure blue without a trace of impurities.

The sun poured down, covering the entire stadium, as if covering the earth with a layer of brilliant golden gauze.

The breeze blows gently, carrying a faint scent of grass, and penetrates into people's nostrils, bringing a bit of coolness unique to summer.

The wind made the flags on the sidelines flutter and make a rustling sound.

Sirius took out the items from the bag one by one and placed them scattered on the table in front of him, briefly explaining each item.

"Auto-tracking restraint handcuffs: They can record the name or aura of a target wizard. As long as the wizard appears within a ten-meter radius and is unobstructed, the handcuffs will automatically cuff the wizard's wrists, restricting their movements.

At the same time, the runes on it can suppress the target's magic output, making the wand in their hands no different from a stick. However, there is a drawback: the information on it cannot be erased, so it can only capture one target and has no effect on others.

I'll charge you 500 gold Galleons each, not expensive at all. Think about it, when I was wanted, they were worth 1 gold Galleons... hehe... but I can return the discarded handcuffs for 1 gold Galleon."

When Scrimgeour heard Sirius's offer, a gust of wind blew his hair onto his cheeks, just enough to hide the slight tremor on his face.

"So, this name or aura can be erased, right?"

"No, but I can dismantle some materials and use them for other things."

Sirius said sincerely.

He would never tell the other party that he had a tool to erase the contents above.

This was Sirius's masterpiece, crafted using the name magic of the Marauder's Map. However, the core of the handcuffs wasn't as impressive as the Marauder's Map, which covered the entire Hogwarts grounds. Douglas had only provided a few insignificant runes.

Thinking of this, he raised his eyebrows proudly:

"Well, as a wizard, he will react to your sudden wand pull, but he will subconsciously dodge things that fly towards him. But this one has a reverse flying spell... Isn't it cool?"

"And this, the Badge Shield: When sensing a magical attack, it generates a shield around the Auror's body similar to the Ironclad Charm, protecting against common magical attacks, hexes, and curses. It can be used three times, and it's 300 gold Galleons each. Isn't that a good deal? It's hard to protect yourself from sudden attacks, isn't it?"
