PS: Make up for yesterday's second update

Early the next morning, Jon had just walked out of his dorm room and made his way to the Slytherin common room.

Pansy Parkinson saw him and hurriedly walked over, and when she passed by Jon, she whispered, "Christopher, I'll take a look at the Daily Prophet later, there's great news!"

"Great news?" Jon was stunned.

Pansy didn't reveal much, though, grinning and leaving.

But Jon soon learned what this "great news" meant.

When he walked into the auditorium to prepare for dinner, most of the students in the auditorium were holding the Daily Prophet and were discussing very nervously...... This scene is somewhat familiar.

The situation in the faculty chair did not seem to be promising, with Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall conversing closely, both of whom had unusually grim faces.

Professor Umbridge was gulping down cereal porridge at the other end of the table, her toad eyes not searching the auditorium for the first time for misbehaving. She ate with a frown, and from time to time she viciously ...... at Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall

The owl also brought Jon's copy of the Daily Prophet.

Jon spread the newspaper on the table, and the front page was filled with ten black-and-white photographs of nine wizards and a witch's faces: some of them made a laughing face, some looked ahead with disdain, and some proudly tapped their fingers against the border......

Jon shifted his gaze to the headline above: "Azkabanites have escaped from prison, and the Ministry of Magic fears that Black is their caller." ”

"Great news!" Jon muttered.

Jon continued to look down:

......

Last night, the Ministry of Magic announced a mass prison break in Azkaban. In an interview in his office, Minister Cornelius Fudge confirmed that ten Azkaban felons had escaped last night and that he had informed the Muggle Prime Minister of the danger of the fugitives.

"It is a great pity that we are in the same situation as when the murderer, Cialis Black, escaped two and a half years ago," Mr. Fudge said last night.

"We think the connection between the two prison breaks is very strong...... Such a large-scale prison escape raises suspicion that there is an outside response, and Blake, as the one who escaped from Azkaban, is in the best position to help others escape from prison. Also among the fugitives is Blake's cousin, Bellatrix Lestrange, who we believe may have used Blake as a leader. ”

In addition, Mr. Fudge warned the public: "But the Ministry of Magic is sparing no effort to pursue the fugitives, and asks the public to remain vigilant and not to approach these important criminals." ”

......

Ten photographs, each with the name of the Death Eater and the crime of being imprisoned in Azkaban.

Jon's gaze was undoubtedly drawn to the witch among them.

Her long black hair was unkempt in the photo, her eyes under thick eyelids were staring around, and a haughty, contemptuous smile appeared on her thin lips...... As a woman, most of her beauty has been taken away from Azkaban......"

There is a small line under the photo: "Bellatrix Lestrange for torturing Frank and Alice Longbottom, resulting in their permanent cripple." ”

Just then, a hand suddenly landed on Jon's shoulder, startling him.

Turning around, Jon saw Draco Malfoy's friendly face.

"Lestrange ......" Malfoy pointed to Bellatrix Lestrange's picture and said with a smile, "She's my aunt!"

"Oh...... Really?" Jon struggled to put on a surprised expression, "Draco...... Looks like your family is full of loyalty!"

"Although I never met her, my mother always said she was a very kind, very gentle woman......" Malfoy paused, "I think I can meet her this Easter holiday!"

"Yes!" Jon couldn't help but complain, "You can see from your face that she is very kind and gentle." ”

Malfoy suddenly lowered his voice: "These fugitives...... They are all henchmen of the Dark Lord...... With their return, the Dark Lord is bound to be strengthened...... And our victory, it's only a matter of time!"

"I think I'm convinced of that too......" Jon nodded, "What a cause for celebration." ”

"But we can't show it in our faces, can we?" Malfoy winked at Jon, "By the way, Selwyn seems to have something to do with you!"

"Okay...... I'll go check it out!"

......

Miss Tiffany Selwyn was excited.

"Christophe, have you watched the news?" she could barely hide the smile on her face.

"That's right, I did. Jon replied calmly, "But Tiffany, I suggest you don't act so happy...... Especially at times like these, know that we're at Hogwarts. ”

"Okay...... the smile on Selwyn's face narrowed a little, and then she spoke, "But I have one more good news here!"

"Oh, tell me?" Jon looked up.

"Marietta-Ekmo, the Ravenclaw one, do you remember?" asked Selwyn, impatiently.

Before Jon could reply, she preemptively said, "Her mother, Mrs. Ekmore, works for the Floo Network office of the Division of Magical Communications, and my father is her immediate boss...... After the Christmas holidays, I have been testing pressure with my father through her, and now it has been very effective......"

Selwyn paused and continued, "...... She had promised to go to Hogsmeade next Sunday and meet us...... I think she'll tell Potter when and where they're meeting, and she's one of Potter's bunch!"

"Is that so?" Jon struggled to put on a happy expression, then patted Selwyn on the shoulder, "Tiffany, you've done a great job, you deserve praise!"

"That'...... Christopher ......" The expression on Miss Tiffany Selwyn's face suddenly became a little hesitant, and she asked hesitantly, "When it comes...... After the interrogation, do you have time to go with me to Madame Padifu's teahouse for a cup of tea......"

"Lady Pardswift's Teahouse?" Jon quickly shook his head when he heard the familiar name, "I'm sorry...... But I still had something to do that day. ”

"Did any other girls ask you out?" the expression on Selwyn's face looked a little lost.

"Other girls?" Jon was stunned.

He suddenly thought of something-

Next Sunday, the day we go to Hogsmeade, is February 14th, which happens to be Valentine's Day.
