After all, there are Albus Dumbledore and Newt Scamander, two top wizards, leading the team on the front; there are two monster-level alchemists, Nico Flamel and Otto Apocalypse, in the castle area.

If you sit still, even if the Sphinx's lair is down there, it will be ruined.

In the eyes of the Ministry of Magic and members of the Hogwarts School Board, this operation was more like a large-scale political gold plating.

In fact, Cornelius Fudge even contacted several media outlets in advance, but did not tell them the specific reasons.

When the good news from Hogwarts arrives, he will set off with the reporters on standby, arrive at the school as soon as possible, and start a series of publicity work - in peacetime, such heavyweight political capital

It can be said to be what every politician dreams of.

Save the magical world from the dark conspiracy, solve the werewolf problem resolutely, and eliminate the monsters in Hogwarts...

With so many political achievements, even without Dumbledore's support in the future, Cornelius Fudge is confident that he can secure the position of minister.

If he's lucky, he may have a chance to challenge the record of being the longest-serving Minister of Magic.

After Dumbledore passed away, even the position of chief wizard of the International Confederation of Wizards was not completely hopeless for him.

After all, in the eyes of many people, he can be regarded as half of the "direct line" successor supported by Dumbledore. Even if his relationship with Hogwarts was slightly tense due to Umbridge's incident some time ago, as long as he can succeed in

If a nail is planted in the school, it will be considered a success.

However, compared to the relaxed and casual attitude of the Ministry of Magic officials, Dumbledore and Newt always had a somewhat serious expression.

Without the "prophecy" of Elena, who has the gift of "sight", they would not even know the specific location of the secret room and the types of monsters that may exist in it. But even so, the specific information about the secret room is still

Quite limited.

You know, Hogwarts Castle originally belonged to the Slytherin family.

As Salazar Slytherin's back-up man in the castle, no one knows how many mechanisms and magic traps there are in the Chamber of Secrets.

More importantly, if the two of them failed to keep the big snake in the secret room, once it had the opportunity to escape outside Hogwarts, it would cause too many problems - light

The magicians on the Hyperion are a big problem.

Of course, fortunately, their preparations and staffing are quite luxurious.

Even if the basilisk managed to escape from the Chamber of Secrets, it would not be possible for it to leave Hogwarts alive.

After the last piece of pudding on the auditorium table disappeared from the plate, Dumbledore stood up and led everyone out of the auditorium, heading to the entrance to the secret room they had explored before, and officially started the plan, which had been finalized after several months of discussions.

Operation "Winter Hunt".

…………

Moaning Myrtle's bathroom on the second floor of Hogwarts Castle.

This was originally an ordinary girls' bathroom, and many girls would go to the toilet here after leaving the auditorium.

But since Myrtle Elizabeth Warren was killed here when the Chamber of Secrets was opened decades ago, and she turned into a ghost and wandered here for a long time, the place has been in a semi-abandoned state. And starting from this semester, it has been even more...

It was directly listed as one of the new restricted areas.

However, today is obviously a very special day.

Dozens of officials from the Ministry of Magic, Professor Dumbledore, and Newt Scamander all appeared in this bathroom.

In the past, the sensitive Myrtle hid in the toilet cubicle with some fear, nervously looking at the adult wizards outside - she had vaguely seen this scene somewhere before, and her body suddenly became light and airy decades ago.

At that time, this place was equally lively.

As for the reason why these big shots gathered here again, she naturally knew it very well.

The Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets was finally discovered, and the beast that took her life could finally get its due retribution.
