"Scrimgeour wants to know why Dumbledore gave those things to us. He seems to suspect that there's a way to defeat Lord Voldemort in there."
"It's not strange for him to think that way. He's locked himself in his office for the past month, so he must be studying these things that Dumbledore left behind." Lupin said, "Scrimgeour has pinned all his hopes on some unrealistic ideas, such as Dumbledore leaving something that can restrain Lord Voldemort, so that the Ministry of Magic will emerge victorious. From another perspective, this also proves that he really has no way of dealing with the current situation, especially after the prison break in Azkaban broke out again. The Ministry of Magic has sunk into a deep self-contradiction. They can't even decide if they should take extreme measures against the Dark Sorcerers because many officials are against it. How funny, but if they don't take extreme measures, which Auror would be willing to capture the Death Eaters? After all, doing so would put their lives in danger, and even if they were caught, it would be meaningless … "
It was quite ironic when he thought about it. The Ministry of Magic had just sent the Death Eaters in, and they had escaped a few days later.
This way, the Death Eaters and Dark Sorcerers had nothing to fear. What reason did they have to be afraid of the Ministry of Magic and the Auror?
As long as they did not die on the spot, even if they were caught and locked up in the Sorcerer Prison, they would be quickly rescued.
This had happened many times. In fact, it was an excellent way to show their loyalty to Lord Voldemort. The Death Eaters and Dark Sorcerers were even more fearless in battle because they knew that the Ministry of Magic could not really do anything to them. Locking them up in Azkaban seemed like someone really cared.
In the past, the Sorcerers were afraid of Azkaban because they were afraid of the cruel torture of the Dementors that guarded it.
Now, without the Evil God's brain and the Dementors below the island, Azkaban was just an eerie and scary building.
Not being able to capture the Death Eaters was criticized by the people. The people blamed the Ministry of Magic for not doing anything, but how to deal with them after capturing them was now a problem.
This was the current situation. The Ministry of Magic did not even have a suitable place to imprison the dark wizards, nor could they deal with them.
Elwyn had always felt that the Ministry of Magic was taking this matter lightly. However, with the Ministry of Magic's current system and situation, it was difficult for the Auror to take extreme measures against the dark Magi. From this point of view, Scrimgeour was inferior to Barty Crouch. He might be a qualified Auror, but he was not a seasoned politician.
"I believe Scrimgeour should understand this and he should also know that what Dumbledore left behind won't be of any help to him." Elwyn said, "I gave him some suggestions after that. He obviously didn't listen to them, but he shouldn't be in such a hurry … Wait, Lupin, did you just say that Scrimgeour plans to take action tomorrow morning?"
"That's what Kingsley said!" Lupin said worriedly. "Scrimgeour is too impulsive. He's playing with his life!"
"That's still better than doing nothing and waiting to be destroyed. This is what a minister of the Ministry of Magic and a veteran Auror should be like." Sirius said solemnly. "He knows he has no other choice, but because of his responsibility and mission, there are some things that he must face head-on and not run away from. Even if he's going to die, people will remember him as a true hero, not a weak and incompetent coward. To be honest, my opinion of Scrimgeour has improved a little. In the past year, he's made so many foolish decisions. It's utterly disappointing, almost as bad as when Foggy was around. "
"Rather than waiting to be destroyed, it's possible to attack the Malfoy Manor and fight the Death Eaters for survival, but I still find it too strange. Since even the Order of the Phoenix knows that the Ministry of Magic is going to attack the Malfoy Manor, there's no way Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters don't know about it. The situation is already disadvantageous to the Ministry of Magic. Attacking under these circumstances is even more suicidal. Does Scrimgeour really want to die? " Elwyn analyzed. "Even if he's going to attack, he should do it secretly. Scrimgeour wouldn't underestimate Lord Voldemort's power, so he shouldn't do this. Moreover, his plan has always been to protect the Ministry of Magic before attacking the Death Eaters."
"Protect the Ministry of Magic!" Sirius sneered. "The Ministry of Magic is rotten to the core. At least half of the wizards there support Lord Voldemort."
"That's why Scrimgeour's previous actions are destined to fail. The destruction of the Ministry of Magic is only a matter of time. He has no power to turn the situation around and lead the Ministry of Magic to victory. Of course, his decision to attack the Malfoy Manor and fight the Lord Voldemort has accelerated the process of destruction. " Elwyn said, "He's undoubtedly using all the remaining power of the Ministry of Magic to fight. Based on my understanding of Scrimgeour, I don't think he should do this …"
"You're not the only one who thinks so. The Order of the Phoenix also thinks this is very suspicious. Regardless of whether Scrimgeour really wants to fight or has other plans, we need to wait and see before making a judgment." Lupin said, "Mad-Eye has already sent people to keep an eye on the Ministry of Magic. He asked me to inform you to be vigilant at all times."
There was a moment of silence. Everyone seemed to be thinking about the real purpose of Scrimgeour's actions.
"Sigh!" Finally, Sirius sighed. "Scrimgeour has always been a respectable Auror. Although I don't quite agree with his methods on certain matters, I have nothing to say about him personally. He should be very clear about the current situation, but he didn't just leave the mess Fudge left behind. The Ministry of Magic needs him, so he stood up. No matter what, I hope he succeeds. Scrimgeour may not be very likable, but he's definitely trustworthy as an ally. "
"If he really attacks the Malfoy Manor now, it might not necessarily be a bad thing. The Lord Voldemort is currently not in the country, he's …"
Harry was about to tell them about his dream that the Lord Voldemort was looking for Grigorovich in Germany, but he immediately stopped because Lady Weasley, in her pajamas, rushed out of the Shack angrily, shouting for Elwyn and Harry to go upstairs to sleep. Ron had been watching from upstairs for a long time, but he did not have the courage to jump down like Elwyn, so he went upstairs. As he expected, even though he was very careful and his movements were very light, he still woke up Lady Weasley.
Lady Weasley was very worried about the Ministry of Magic's latest move. She had always opposed Sirius, Elwyn, and Harry talking about these things.
