Chapter 603 Connection
At this moment, everyone present turned their attention to Fudge, their eyes full of surprise and confusion.
Those who know the inside story can't help but wonder: "Has he always been so brave?"
However, for those wizards present who did not know the truth, they were completely confused and did not understand what happened and why the atmosphere at the scene became so weird.
You know, people who can get into this situation are by no means stupid.
These people may be a little lacking in information acquisition, but their minds are definitely sharp.
Because of this, they were able to detect this strange smell and smell some unusual clues from it.
In fact, Fudge himself was deeply remorseful.
If he had a time turner in his hand at this moment, he would travel back in time without hesitation and slap himself hard.
You can obviously resign honestly, so why bother?
If he stated it truthfully according to the actual situation, wouldn't he have provoked Raven for no reason and added countless obstacles to his pursuit of the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts!
After all, Raven is the chairman of the Hogwarts School Board, and he is the key figure who has the final decision-making power and can influence the selection of the Hogwarts principal.
If Raven is implicated here, then he may miss out on the position of principal of Hogwarts.
Thinking of this, Fudge became increasingly anxious.
But if you don't tell the truth, or if you cover up for Raven...
Fudge glanced at Old Barty Crouch (Voldemort) cautiously, trying to catch some clues from the depths of his resolute and steady eyes.
Sure enough, under the seemingly calm surface, Fudge noticed a hint of malicious intent that was difficult to detect.
Crouch concealed this emotion very well. In the eyes of outsiders, he is still the resolute and ruthless character.
But Fudge knew in his heart that if he dared to tell a lie, this insidious and cunning guy would definitely add fuel to the flames without hesitation!
What is certain is that Crouch himself does not want to confront the Weasley boy head-on.
But he was very happy to let Fudge be the leader!
Now that things have happened, Fudge understands that no matter how much he regrets, it will be of no use.
Yes, he did seize the opportunity firmly.
However, this so-called opportunity is not only full of toxicity, but also extremely difficult.
Fudge knew that from the moment he came forward, the situation was irreversible. Despite this, Fudge did not stop thinking. He racked his brains and thought hard about how to respond in order to maximize his personal gain.
Soon, his thoughts were interrupted,
"Mr. Fudge, do you have anything to say?"
Said a wizard from the International Confederation of Wizards with a long light brown beard.
His yellow-black skin is particularly eye-catching. Even though the beard on his face is so thick that it almost covers his facial features, this unique skin color and hair color still clearly indicate his identity - a wizard from the Middle East.
Fudge's thoughts were suddenly interrupted, but he was not angry.
On the contrary, he was secretly glad that he had just made a preliminary plan.
Fudge coughed slightly, then deliberately lowered his voice and said in a mysterious tone,
"I wonder if you have heard of a secret incident that happened a few years ago, that is, the 'Bashir Murder Case'."
To ensure that only certain people could hear him, Fudge controlled the volume.
Therefore, the wizard who was a little further away could not hear clearly what he said.
However, those members of the International Confederation of Wizards who were closer to him, as well as several Ministry of Magic employees standing next to Old Barty Crouch (Voldemort), all clearly heard what he mentioned. The name "Bashir Murder".
"The Bashir murder case? I think I heard about it there."
The bearded wizard of Middle Eastern descent whispered softly,
His deep eyes showed a reminiscing look, as if he was immersed in thinking hard about a certain past event.
Although what is before them is a gruesome murder case, for the members of the International Federation of Wizards special operations team who are in the vast magical world and confront all kinds of dangerous dark wizards all day long, they must immediately think of [Bash The details of the murder case are not easy.
After all, time flies by, and that case is already more than three years ago, and it is an outright old news.
Seeing that everyone seemed a little confused and had no clue, Fudge quickly reminded him,
"Everyone has just come from the Magic Congress. Have you heard from your colleagues over there about the [Cheetah Tribe Murder Case]?"
As soon as these words came out, the wizards from the International Federation of Wizards were shocked - although this name was a little unfamiliar, they were extremely impressed by it!
It turns out that this murder, which also happened two or three years ago, is inextricably linked to another major case they just investigated at the Magic Congress!
Three high-ranking officials of the Magic Congress and George Washington V, the bearer of magic in the country, were tragically killed by the death curse!
(Actually, Haierbo ordered the Horcrux to cast the Death Curse inside his body to kill himself.)
How can a case related to such a shocking crime not be unforgettable?
This is not the first time a case like this has occurred in the Americas.
As they investigate, looking up relevant cases becomes the only way to go.
What is unexpected is that this investigation actually yielded something - a bloody tragedy that happened the year before last came to light.
The thousand-year-old Indian tribe named after [Cheetah],
Many wizards were brutally murdered at the same time.
Not only were their bodies brutally scalped, but what was even more tragic was that these victims all had a common characteristic and were related to each other.
However, there are a handful of other wizards who, although they are members of the tribe, are not related by blood to those wizards who were killed by the [Death Curse] at the same time, but a large amount of biting cabbage was found in the place where they died.
There are various signs that the mastermind behind the incident points directly to one person, who is quite influential in Europe.
Unfortunately, it seemed that the file had been tampered with and did not record who the person was. It only revealed his identity as a current student at Hogwarts.
In fact, Fudge also contributed a lot when he erased this name. Of course, he also got a lot of galleons from Lucius for this.
Now he wants to go back on his word and take the initiative to expose the matter.
"I remembered! Bashir's murder!"
When the memory of [Cheetah Tribe Murder Case] came to mind, with the help of many key words associated with it - such as [simultaneity], [death curse], [bloodline], [biting cabbage], etc.,
The bearded wizard of Middle Eastern origin quickly recalled the [Bashir Murder Case] and the story behind it.
