Recently, Rita Skeeter was in a bad mood and she was temporarily suspended by the Daily Prophet.
As one of the main editors of the "Daily Prophet" and a source of guarantee for the newspaper's best-selling, Barnabas Guffi's approach is rather stupid.
Warning from the Ministry of Magic?
What counts to Rita Skeeter, since she became a reporter, the Ministry of Magic has warned 49 times, but they still have nothing to do with themselves.
"Come on, what can I do?" Rita Skeeter asked calmly, looking at the old acquaintance in front of him.
"Because of your relationship, our relationship with the US Ministry of Magic has become quite bad."
As an employee of Barty Crouch's office, Bertha Jorkins was also helpless, she didn't want to deal with Rita Skeeter at all.
However, she had just been rushed from the Department of Magical Transportation to the Department of International Magical Cooperation of the British Ministry of Magic. She was sent by her boss to deal with her acquaintances, trying to figure out what the situation is.
Because of the last report and the overreaction of some wizards, the relationship between the British Ministry of Magic and the United States Ministry of Magic was very bad.
"I'm just reporting the truth, Jorkins."
Faced with doubts from acquaintances, Rita Skeeter's tone was calm, "When I interviewed the Mr. Anderson, the other party said that. I just expressed what he meant."
Of course, Rita Skeeter didn't dare to push the pot all over Albert's head, otherwise she would really have to enter Azkaban.
In the Ministry of Magic, a bunch of people wanted to throw her into prison. Who made Rita Skeeter really like to write sensational false stories of celebrities in the wizarding world, and for this offended many people.
"So, these are real?"
Bertha Jorkins obviously didn't believe Rita Skeeter's nonsense. She had worked for the Daily Prophet for a while, and she knew exactly who the woman in front of her was.
"Of course, this is the fact."
Rita Skeeter was very impatient and wanted to end this **** conversation as soon as possible. She felt that she should tell others about the Ministry of Magic's face.
"You should know that this kind of rhetoric is impossible to dismiss that Mr. Crouch." Bertha Jorkins said grimly. "She really doesn't want to mess things up anymore. In the years since she entered the Ministry of Magic, She has changed several departments."
"This is the fact, you don't know the United States, why not study it yourself?"
"I heard that you have been suspended."
"Don't worry about this, I will be reinstated soon."
Rita Skeeter is really not worried about her suspension. Her job is not just to write articles in the Daily Prophet.
Writing for "Witcher Weekly" is also one of her jobs.
Rita Skeeter felt that she should write an article about the American magic world to let everyone understand what the British International Magic Cooperation Department did.
As a result of this, the International Magic Cooperation Department received a large number of owl letters, and many wizards believed that Barty Crouch's compromise was a weak act.
Bertha Jorkins, who submitted that report, was naturally unlucky. At the same time he was scolded by Barty Crouch, he was sent to burn those letters.
Many wizards added some information to the letter, and God knows what will happen when it is burned.
Jorkins was also helpless, but he still sorted out the matter very seriously and resubmitted a report.
According to her research, she found that the actual situation was indeed not much different from what Rita Skeeter described.
In particular, the description of the American magic world in the "Witcher Weekly", even if it is a little exaggerated, does not show much deviation.
This kind of thing happened to Rita Skeeter, who likes nonsense, it's really incredible.
Perhaps, the reality has been exaggerated to the point that there is no need for the woman to continue exaggerating.
After Bertha Jorkins sorted out the information, he took the things to the director's office, but Mr. Barty Crouch seemed to be away.
"I don't know if he will take it seriously." Bertha Jorkins doubted this, and Barty Crouch hoped to restore friendly relations with the American magic world.
"Jorkins." Ludo Bagman asked. "Is Batty there?"
"The director is not here."
"It's really bad. I have a document here that needs his signature." Ludo Bagman said distressedly: "When Barty comes back, remember to remind him to sign. You will need it tomorrow."
"Ok."
Bertha Jorkins immediately agreed, and as an employee of Barty Crouch's office, this is also one of her jobs.
However, after get off work, when Barty Crouch did not show up, Bertha Jorkins could only send the document to the house of his boss, Mr. Barty Crouch, for signature.
Crouch is a famous family of wizards. When Bertha passed by, her boss, Mr. Batty Crouch, was not at home.
The house elf told Bertha that the master Barty Crouch would be back soon, and asked her to wait in the hall for a while.
Bertha Jorkins agreed. She thought it was better to hand the document to the other person in person, watch her sign, and then send it to Ludo Bagman.
Putting the document on the table, Bertha drank the tea from the family elves.
Just as she was looking at the furnishings in the hall of her boss, she suddenly heard a low voice of conversation, as if someone was talking.
Bertha stood up suspiciously and walked towards the kitchen in the direction of the sound, the sound becoming more pronounced. In the kitchen, the house elf seemed to be talking to a man, but there was no one in the kitchen.
Is someone hiding in an invisible cloak?
"House elves call that man's master?" Bertha Jorkins immediately realized something. Could it be Barty Crouch Jr., the son of Barty Crouch Sr.?
But ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Barty Crouch's son has died in Azkaban prison.
"Could it be..."
It's hard for Bertha Jorkins to believe that Barty Crouch Sr. would do something like that.
"How will you be here?"
The house elf noticed someone behind him, suddenly turned his head and looked at Bertha Jorkins nervously.
"Who were you talking to just now, it was Barty Crouch Jr., right!" Bertha Jorkins took a step forward.
"I don't know what you are talking about?" The house elf was very nervous, trying to prevent the other party from coming forward to uncover the invisible cloak.
"Jorkins, what are you doing here?" Barty Crouch appeared behind Bertha Jorkins without warning.
"Mr. Barty Crouch, did you save your son from Azkaban?" Bertha Jorkins looked at her boss in disbelief. In her memory, Barty Crouch was a hateful person, he even almost became the Minister of Magic, because his son was a Death Eater that made him miss that opportunity.
"Jorkins, you shouldn't be nosy, this is a terrible mistake, sorry." Barty Crouch sighed, raised his wand and pointed at the witch in front of him, preparing to make him forget this memory.
However, if you want to keep the secret completely, you have to use a powerful forgetting curse to make her completely forget what happened today.
Bertha Jorkins, who was under the Forgotten Curse, was completely stupid.
"Master, she will forget what happened just now, right." The house elf was shaking all over.
"Yes." Barty Crouch looked at the woman in front of him, shook his head helplessly and said: "I use a very strong forgetting spell, which is very likely to cause permanent damage to her memory, but this is also impossible. , Who makes her like to be nosy."
