Harry Potter’s Natural Villain

Chapter 136 The Counterattack of the Daily Prophet

On the night when Peter Pettigrew appeared, all the media in the wizarding world wanted to smell the bloody sharks. Fudge even found the "Daily Prophet" in advance, hoping they could make a big publicity, they did. A lot of hard work, the Hogwarts reporter that night was sent by them.

But in the end they only mentioned it in the newspaper the next day.

Almost no one goes into the reasons for this. They are just keen to belittle the newspaper with the highest circulation. They think that the editor in charge may have his head flooded, and Fudge is also very upset. Why was he so diligent in the first place and should be positively publicized? Just drop the chain.

At the same time, many tabloids even thought they had a chance.

But I don't know that this is the beginning of his own annexation.

If the whole environment is deceived, then maybe it can be worse. You see, isn't that newspaper also spared?This is the habitual thinking of everyone.

But what if a media maintains its sobriety?

Unfortunately, the "Daily Prophet" is the only survivor.

As early as during the Christmas holiday, Lucius directly approached the senior management of the Daily Prophet and reached an agreement. The method of suppressing and then raising can achieve great results at any time.

Even Rita Skeeter, who is extremely fond of being a demon, received a special letter aimed at her. There was no other content on it, but she was asked to be silent for a while, at least during this time, she Can't write strange words with her shorthand quill pen.

If there are signs of something wrong, it is a pity that there may be one more trial bench in the Wizarding Court, as the defendant who has not registered with Animagus illegally came to power.

Perhaps a lot of charges of wiretapping will be added. Rita Skeeter used her Animagus to obtain information.

To the effect that this woman can only choose to bow her head.

What's more, she now has an excellent opportunity, and now is the time to need her.

The long silence will drive her crazy, she needs to talk, using her magical, magical quill, to vent her previous depression fanatically.

I feel excited when I think about it. All the media in the wizarding world have been played around by a traitor who deceives the world. What a ironic thing. These days, she has not been ridiculed by those nasty younger generations. Today is the opportunity to face up. .

The flamboyant and sensational words spewed out from under her quill and turned into the report Hermione was seeing now.

"This is the most outstanding young man I have ever met. He has an elegant manner and a proper conversation. He perfectly demonstrates the good upbringing under the influence of his family." Rita Skeeter wrote in all compliments, and the lines were full of exaggeration. situation.

joke?How dare she go not to please the heir of the shareholder family, let alone that person doesn't know how to get her handle.

Lucius paid a secret and a certain amount of wealth at that time, and became one of the shareholders of the Daily Prophet.

With this opportunity, the "Prophet Daily" not only received a huge investment, but also raised its reputation once again. Everyone was drunk and I was alone, and it was able to maintain the integrity of a news media even when the public was incited. How rare is that the newspapers and periodicals that were deceived before are now a joke.

These are small losers.

The big loser is undoubtedly Cornelius Fudge, except for the petty dwarf Peter in the East Window incident.

This big oolong completely caused a devastating blow to his reputation, and the public opinion that was only slightly restored because of the petty star Peter fell into the abyss.

I wronged an innocent person for twelve years, and finally treated a shameful traitor as a guest of honor. Is this the Minister of Magic this term?

Fudge can only conduct pale public relations, saying that the person in power at the time was not him, and he was not the cause of the injustice.

Unfortunately, that's all that can be done.

Only then did he realize that he might be pitted by that kid,

Someone has to believe it.

What's more, Malfoy has completely picked himself out.

The front page of the Daily Prophet states:

One person, not falling down twice in the same place, this sentence is perfect for Draco Malfoy. The cunning little dwarf Peter would never think that his foolproof Imperius curse would fail. Many people I don’t know that when this boy was in his second grade, he made a big mistake and almost embarrassed Hogwarts. If readers are interested, they can order my latest work..."

When Rita Skeeter’s pen was turned, the following text reads like this: "At this time, Peter Pettigrew’s unsound knowledge is revealed at this time. When he is learning the sinful unforgivable curse, perhaps Forget the fact that the effectiveness of the Imperius Curse will slowly diminish as the number of uses increases, and unfortunately, his spell only succeeded on Draco Malfoy once, and this student later It even led him into a trap."

"Peter Pettigrew, who used the Imperius Curse, was too overwhelmed. He thought he was better off first. After catching Sirius Black, he sat back and relax. This is his biggest failure. He will never think of his Imperius. The curse will fail in front of a student."

"He would never have imagined that even earlier, Sirius Black sent us a letter explaining all this. Interested readers can wait and watch it on the back page..."

"First, our "Prophet Daily" was skeptical of this letter, but out of caution and the mentality of believing it is better than unreliable, we sent our professional reporters to investigate. After all If Thaksin’s letter is true, then this may be the biggest injustice in the history of the wizarding world."

"Then we obtained a lot of clues, and some clues are very easy to get. For example, Sirius Black was thrown into Azkaban without trial. He never confessed guilty personally. In the eyes of people at the time, It is a sign that he has no regrets, but now it seems that there is a reasonable explanation..."

"Our reporter also deliberately interviewed the Auror who was involved in the arrest. Only those who have experienced it have the right to speak. Their answers are surprisingly consistent: "I didn't see Black committing a crime with my own eyes, but the superiors asked us to To arrest him, we can only obey orders."

"I was even ready to sacrifice at the time." This was one of the Aurors' statements. "But Sirius did not resist our capture at the time. We didn't even use a spell, so he just grabbed it. Up."

"At that time, we only felt that it was a good thing not to sacrifice, but the more time passed, the more it felt unreasonable."

"If he is truly loyal to the mysterious person, he can fight another battle with us. I am confident that he still has the ability to fight back." These were the words of another Auror at that time.
