It was necessary to be cautious, but they couldn't do nothing and let the situation get worse.
Elwyn was thinking of ways to reverse the current situation, or at least let more people know that the Lord Voldemort had returned.
After thinking about it, at the current stage, they still had to rely on the newspaper to fight the battle of public opinion.
Since Foggy and the Ministry of Magic were restricting the content of Hogwarts Magic and Magic, they could secretly remove the logo of the newspaper and distribute it secretly …
This was not an urgent matter, and Elwyn planned to implement it after he returned from his trip to Egypt.
Let the lies spread by the Ministry of Magic ferment for a while. It was impossible for the Lord Voldemort to do nothing. More and more signs appeared, and the Ministry of Magic's statement could not explain these things. When the people were generally skeptical, that would be the best time for Elwyn to act.
Going against the Ministry of Magic now and saying that the Lord Voldemort had returned would only create panic and be thought to have ulterior motives.
The mainstream of the magic world was unwilling to believe that the Lord Voldemort had returned. They had been at peace for too long.
"Be careful!" Sirius snorted and said sharply, "Foggy doesn't have the courage to face the Lord Voldemort's return. He makes himself believe that Dumbledore is spreading rumors and destroying his stable position. It's much easier to think of it this way!"
"You're right." Lupin said, "Since the Ministry of Magic insists that there's no need to worry about the Lord Voldemort, it's difficult for us to make people believe that he's back, especially when they don't want to believe it either. In addition to us, the Ministry of Magic has been exerting pressure on the Daily Prophet to prevent them from reporting any relevant news. They now call this news Dumbledore's rumors, so most people in the wizarding world have no idea what's going on. "
Elwyn nodded. The Hogwarts Magic and Magic was not the only newspaper under control.
"Many people expressed dissatisfaction with the Ministry of Magic's actions. A few editors and reporters who didn't want to badmouth us contacted me in private. They believed Dumbledore's words and wanted to resign from the Daily Prophet to work here!" Lupin said, "I didn't agree to them. We don't need that many people, but they're all excellent people. As time goes on, there will be more and more people like them. The explanation given by the Ministry of Magic is simply full of loopholes … "
"Don't reject them all. Accept some first!" Iven said that he knew how important a good editor or reporter was to the development of a newspaper. They couldn't always rely on ghosts and house-elves to keep Hogwarts running.
To develop, he had to rely on these people. This was both a crisis and an opportunity for the Hogwarts Magic and Magic.
As a new newspaper, without this kind of opportunity, it would be impossible to defeat an old news media like the Daily Prophet.
Elwyn told them what he had just thought and got the approval of Sirius and Lupin.
"We're thinking of the same thing. Dumbledore is also waiting for the right opportunity to fight back. He thinks the mysterious man is focusing all his energy on that!" Lupin said, "But he can't stay like this forever. He'll definitely do something."
"What?"
"You two still don't know, but Dumbledore told us this in the last meeting. The mysterious man is looking for something, something that can only be obtained in secret. He didn't say what it was, but obviously it has something to do with Harry."
"He told me …" Sirius said, "He wants us to keep an eye on Harry and not let Lord Voldemort's conspiracy succeed. Harry must stay with his aunt and uncle for the summer vacation. The magic left by Lily can rely on the blood of relatives to work."
From his expression, it was obvious that this matter made him feel very uncomfortable. No one knew what Dumbledore told him.
Elwyn knew what Lord Voldemort wanted. It was Professor Trelawney's Prophecy Ball about him and Harry.
Elwyn had originally planned to stop this, but now he changed his mind. He wanted to go to the Department of Mysterious Affairs to find the special time converter. This was a good opportunity to put all the blame on Lord Voldemort without arousing suspicion …
"Harry is really worrying. Elwyn and Hermione are going to Egypt during the summer vacation, and I have to go to Norway to help Dumbledore with something. They are not in England." Sirius said, looking at Lupin. "Remus, please take care of Harry during the summer vacation …"
"Actually, I have a mission too!" Lupin hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Dumbledore wants me to return to the underworld, to the werewolves, and persuade them to support us. I promised him!"
"Dumbledore wants you to go to the werewolves?" Elwyn looked at him in surprise.
"Yes, just like with the giants, we should also find allies among the werewolves. Someone needs to do this." Lupin said, "Don't worry, I am very familiar with the place. I know how to deal with them."
Sirius opened his mouth, but in the end, he did not say anything.
There was an underworld in the London magic community, wandering on the edge of the main community.
Tunnels spread deep underground like a spider's web. The entrance was in the depths of Knockover Alley. It was a place that the Ministry of Magic could not reach. It was extremely dangerous and dark. Vampires, werewolves, dark wizards, thieves, liars, and all kinds of dark creatures mingled there. The shops inside were all real black magic shops.
The Ministry of Magic had attacked the place a few times, but it had little effect.
The dark forces soon came back from the dead, forming a sharp contrast with the peaceful and lively Diagon Alley.
To enter that place, one must first prove one's identity and prove that one was evil enough.
Although Lupin was not evil, his identity as a werewolf was a good cover.
"When the little ones are on holiday, Arthur and Molly will also come here." Lupin continued, "Don't worry, Sirius, I will ask them to take care of Harry. Dumbledore must have made arrangements too. He will send someone to keep an eye on Harry. When the time for the spell to take effect is up, we will bring him over."
The conversation ended there. Elwyn and Sirius ate the food Kreacher brought over and went upstairs to sleep.
Although Kreacher had put in a lot of effort to tidy up the place, this old house had been on his mind for too long. Furthermore, no one had lived in it for more than ten years. The floorboards creaked when one stepped on them. Elwyn tossed and turned on the bed, hearing the rustling sound.
The decoration style of the room was also classical and luxurious. It seemed to be from the previous century, the most glorious era of the pure-blooded sorcerer families …
