"What I did is worthy of my conscience!" Mad-Eye roared angrily, "You can't accuse me like this!"
Scrimgeour shrugged, "I never doubted your loyalty."
"But, Alastor, let me ask you, if what the Order of the Phoenix wants to do conflicts with what the Auror Office wants to do, you..."
Scrimgeour raised his right foot and put it on his left foot, tilted his head and looked at Mad-Eye, "How to make a choice?"
Mad-Eye's cheek twitched, and he picked up the wine bottle and took a sip, "How ridiculous that I would ask a retired Auror such a question."
"Things have changed. We all know that the mysterious man is back." Scrimgeour threw the cigarette butt to the ground and let it shine in the darkness.
"I never forgot our mission, Alastor, you did."
Mad-Eye looked at him coldly, "What do you mean?"
Scrimgeour sighed, stood up, walked directly in front of him, and stared coldly into his real eye, "Listen up, Aurors have only done one thing for three hundred years since they were created.
, guard the "Secret Law"!"
"Understand, it's not about arresting the dark wizard, it's not about attacking the mysterious man!"
Mad-Eye looked at him in disbelief, "What did you say!"
"Do you not understand, or are you pretending not to understand?" Scrimgeour took out a cigarette from the table and took another one. "You, Mad-Eye, have been an Auror all your life and are worse than a child.
See clearly."
"Let me tell you seriously, why you have made so many achievements, but can only retire, but I can sit in the position of director of the Auror Office."
"If you can carefully read the laws and regulations enforced by our Aurors, you will not just rely on justice to perform tasks throughout your life."
"Justice, justice, haha, justice."
"The Auror Office was established back then to thoroughly enforce the Statute of Secrecy in the wizarding world!"
Scrimgeour stared at Mad-Eye coldly, "We are always ready to welcome the witch hunt in the new era, understand? Do you understand the current situation? Planes, cannons, nuclear bombs, aircraft carriers, satellites, the Internet, radio,
Do you know the scale of the new age witch hunts?"
"No! You don't understand. You only stick to one line of justice."
Mad-Eye's eyes widened and he stared at Scrimgeour in disbelief, "Are you also a believer in 'Wizard Supremacy'?"
"Wizards are supreme?" Scrimgeour sneered, "Don't be ridiculous. Although you and I are both from pure-blood families, there is no such thing as wizards being supreme!"
"If you could drink less and read more about our history, you should know that there has always been only 'witch-hunting' and no 'Muggle-hunting'. Ha, wizards are supreme. It's ridiculous."
He touched Mad-Eye's chest with the hand holding the cigarette, "You, me, the wizard, are the weak ones, understand, all the time, from ancient times to the present!"
"Just like Merlin in history, the great wizard Dumbledore is also doing the same thing. They are all protecting Muggles. Haha, it's really funny. Their magic is so powerful, so of course they feel that they have to protect the weak.
"
"But they never considered that we are the weak ones!"
"When they were alive, they casually made a lot of rules that favored Muggles, haha. Of course, they thought they could easily destroy those modern armies and missiles with a wave of their hands."
"Then, when they die, haha, can they still protect us? No, they just left those bullshit rules and continue to protect those Muggles."
"Not every era has such a powerful wizard!"
"Only us!" Scrimgeour stared at Mad-Eye fiercely, "Only we Aurors are the ones who are always thinking of ways to protect the interests of wizards!"
"Under the bullshit rules set by these extremely powerful wizards, we are struggling to support ourselves with so little power!"
"No matter who Dumbledore or Grindelwald is doing, they are allowing people of Muggle descent to fill the wizarding world at will. You know that if the two sides go to war, we will not only have to face Muggle missiles, but we will also
Are you going to face a Muggle-born wizard?"
"The advantages that the Ministry of Magic had established against Muggles over hundreds of years were wiped out after the failure of Grindelwald's Holy War."
"I have never been a pure-blood supreme, nor have I been a wizard. I don't care about these bullshit doctrines. I only care about protecting our tribe as an Auror!"
Scrimgeour took a shaky breath from his cigarette, then coughed, coughed, and laughed, wildly.
"This is why I can become the head of the Auror Office, because I know what we are doing, no matter what is good or evil."
"Of course you are an excellent Auror, Alastor. You have caught so many criminals in your life, of course you are great."
"But please remember, I have been working hard for the entire wizarding community my whole life. And you have been working hard to capture some bastards among my fellow wizards your whole life."
"You are not qualified to talk to me about Auror beliefs from the moral high ground."
"You're the one who doesn't understand Auror beliefs!"
"Your faith is the faith of the Order of the Phoenix, not the faith of the Aurors, do you understand?"
Mad-Eye roared angrily, grabbing Scrimgeour's collar with both hands, "You're crazy! You know what you're talking about!"
Scrimgeour just looked at him with a sneer, with countless sarcasm in his eyes, "The mysterious man's 'pure-blood supremacy' is aimed at wizards of Muggle origin. He has not violated the Statute of Secrecy, do you understand?"
This is the fundamental reason why so many people died when the Order of the Phoenix fought against the mysterious man, but Aurors and even the entire Ministry of Magic faced it passively."
"As long as the mysterious man still needs the Ministry of Magic and the Auror organization, even if he takes over the Ministry of Magic, even if we people die, it can be accepted. Understand, we fought them back then just because of their
We cannot just turn a blind eye to crime."

We are not facing dung forks and torches anymore."
Scrimgeour's eyes turned cold, "If you are an Auror first, I ask you as the director of the Auror Office not to go against the mysterious man, lest our Ministry of Magic completely stand against the mysterious man and affect the magic.
It was completely wiped out."
"If you are a member of the Order of the Phoenix first, then don't always use our Auror name."
Mad-Eye's eyes also turned cold, "I think it's your bureaucratic thinking that's at work and you can't understand the situation. Do you think the Order of the Phoenix is dead and the mysterious man will let the Ministry of Magic go?"
"Impossible." Scrimgeour shook his head, "If the Order of the Phoenix loses, I will die, and all the disobedient officials will die. I know this very well, unless I plan to surrender to the mysterious man, but that is impossible
thing."
He met Mad-Eye's gaze, took his hand and pulled his shirt open, "You see, this is the biggest scar inside. Death Eaters will not show mercy."
"But, in my eyes, whether Dumbledore rules the Ministry of Magic or You-Know-Who rules the Ministry of Magic, it is all internal fighting among wizards. I will welcome every possibility, even if it means losing
life."
Mad-Eye let go of his clothes and muttered, "You're crazy."
"I'm not crazy!" Scrimgeour held a cigarette in his mouth and smiled softly, "Do you know what the key is? It's that Dumbledore has no interest in the Ministry of Magic at all."
"He can never side with the Ministry of Magic. No matter what happens, his consideration is not to protect the Ministry of Magic."
"Since he is not one of our people, he sends people to our side every day, recruits people, and lets them fight against the mysterious man, so that the Ministry of Magic has to stand on the opposite side of the mysterious man."

Scrimgeour spat on the ground.
"Alastor, watch, watch carefully. You sent Anthony to my department. It's really interesting. I will make good use of him..."
Scrimgeour's expression became extremely cold, "Sweep out all of you Dumbledore's lackeys!"
"Of course, I will not touch You-Know-Who's lackeys. If You-Know-Who becomes the Minister of Magic, I will count on these people to protect the Auror Office. I will not target Grindelwald's lackeys, after all, I need some
People check and balance them.”
Mad-Eye was obviously furious, roaring angrily and not knowing how to refute the other party's words, and drew out his wand and pointed it at Scrimgeour.
Scrimgeour just exhaled faintly, "At that time, if you want to keep these people, there is only one way. Dumbledore will be the Minister of Magic. If he comes, I will kneel on the ground and kiss him religiously."
