The statues were talking about something by the window, and when they saw Phoenix and his group, they immediately got up to meet them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Coming to class," it started with a statue of a witch with a stern expression, and Phoenix gave her a look, and Hermione and Harry immediately understood what it meant, like Professor McGonagall, not an easy person to deal with, "Who are they?"

"My classmates -- we didn't come to class, we just passed by. Phoenix explained.

"If you want me to say, you should work more on etiquette. Look at your dance steps, it's as casual as a walk. She spoke Old Latin, but the look on her face was enough for them to guess.

"That's pretty much it. ”

With that, Phoenix turned to them and said.

"She has a lot of knowledge, and she has been personally involved in many historical events. She was also very familiar with many of the ancient forms of magic - but she lived in an era where English was not yet available, so it would be difficult for you to communicate. ”

"Ah, it's like the Sorting Hat. Hermione stared with interest at the statues that were moving freely and casually.

"Almost, it's a piece of magic for the cold. By preserving some of the sorcerer's thoughts and memories on a dead object, some precious materials and techniques can be preserved for a long time without worrying about the risk of misinterpretation by future generations. ”

The classrooms are square and connected to the exhibition room. When you learn the history of magic, you can see all kinds of ancient relics up close. The floor was littered with books, many of them two people tall. All kinds of utensils were placed everywhere, and there was a thick layer of dirt on them, which must have not been used for a long time.

"It's good that you've been studying magic here since you were a child. Harry said enviously, fantasizing in his head. If his parents hadn't died, would he have played Quidditch with his father when he was a child, and before he went to school, he invited some good friends to come to his house and use magic to trick and trick around.

"To be precise, my focus as a child was on the history of magic. "The Dark Arts and Defenses, as well as the Charms class, are just like everyone else, and I learn them with everyone else when I go to school." But I began to study the history of magic at a young age, and I began to study it at the age of two - Minerva Peverell was a very famous patriarch of our family, an excellent educator, a historian of magic, and a master of alchemy. She thinks there is a saying: 'It is wise to study history'. To put it in layman's terms, learning the history of magic can make you wiser, it can make you smarter. Because history is to tell the experience and lessons of wizards in the past in terms of how to behave and do things. You will learn a lot and learn a lot of truths in it. ”

"On the contrary, the spell is more about talent, and if you're a squib, it's useless to try. If you're a genius, take a look at the spell and you'll be. This kind of innate decision cannot be cultivated through nurture, and since there is no guarantee that the heirs of the past generations will be masters of magic, wisdom has undoubtedly become extremely important. ”

"The rest of the language, the ritual dances, the basic attacks and protective spells are all taught piecemeal, just make sure they are enough. ”

"No wonder you never listened carefully to the history of magic and got a high score. Harry looked up at stacks of books like stone pillars. I picked up a copy and flipped through it.

"If you spend seven or eight years in a history book, you can almost get a passing grade with your eyes closed. Phoenix looked around and saw Hermione flipping through a piece of parchment.

Is it moral for English wizards to help Muggles?

As we all know, England was at war in the 30s and 40s of this century, and the Muggles once again raised their knives against their fellow citizens. London, as the capital of Muggles, was naturally greatly impacted. The English wizards, ignoring the decrees of the Ministry of Magic, were enthusiastic about helping Muggles, and it was their neighbors who were protected from the invasion of war - of course, nothing was known to the Muggles, they simply believed that their house was intact, and the next street was in flames because of luck or the blessing of the gods - the Minister for Magic, Leonard Spencer-Muen, urgently issued the "Code of Dangerous Behavior for Wizards", prohibiting wizards from helping their neighbors.

However, the English wizards did not comply with this rule, and they used iron armor charms or barrier charms to cover the streets, and the falling bombs exploded in mid-air due to contact with the iron armor charm, or they were suspended in mid-air due to the presence of obstacle charms. It became a major leak at the time.

Hundreds of Muggles witnessed the spectacle and shouted, 'God save the King'! Thankfully, after the silent events of 1926 in New York, the International Confederation of Wizards was better prepared. Its immediate emergency department, as well as the International Wizard Support Agreement before the ink is dry, immediately came into play.

After some 40,000 Londoners had their memories altered and erased, and wizards had vandalized and faked the aftermath of the bombing—the Muggle Prime Minister's fantasy wizard's help to Muggles had been shattered by the wizards' actions—the International Federation of Wizards and Wizards concluded that while wizards should not risk helping Muggles, it was legal to protect themselves and their families.

As a result, the International Confederation of Wizards passed a bill at the end of December 1940, agreeing to erect magical barriers over streets inhabited by wizards to divert bombs that could fall elsewhere.

What do you think about the innocent Muggle casualties caused by this bill?

"How do you answer?" Hermione asked, with a look of eagerness, the same as the professor had done in class.

"I haven't looked at this question," Phoenix tilted his neck and looked at the parchment, "There are a lot of them, and I didn't pick this one at the time." ”

"Then the one you chose, show it to me," Hermione said solemnly, "you know what? ”

"Okay. Phoenix reluctantly sat on a pile of parchment rolls, which were many, but most of the questions he answered orally.

Because he didn't like to write, it was too troublesome, and after answering so many papers, he didn't want to use his hands, and Minerva didn't allow him to use an automatic sketching quill or a shorthand quill pen.

"Well, you may like this, about the law. ”

The Nikolaas Novich Case

In 1944, Nikolaas Novich, who had just graduated from Durmstrang, received the sad news that his parents had been killed in the Soviet-German war and that his young sister had disappeared (the Soviet-German government was roughly the Muggle government of Russia and the German Wizarding Council). In retaliation, he destroyed the ship's hull with a splitting or shattering charm, causing a ship named Wilhelm Gustloff to sink.

The Ministry of Magic later investigated and stated that between 10,000 and 9,000 Muggles had been killed. The Office of Misinformation, which defined the incident as a Muggle war, did not raise any suspicion. After determining that no wizard or squib had been killed, Nikola Novich was sentenced to six months in prison, which he actually served one week.

Do you think Nikolaas Novich is guilty?

"You consider not guilty. ”

"Obviously, there is no law in wizarding world that stipulates how wizards should be sentenced for murder of Muggles. According to the law, he can be said to be innocent. He was sentenced for a serious breach of the law of secrecy for those six months. He was supposed to be sentenced to five years, but the German Wizarding Council sent their Wizengamot, Chief Mage Nicholas Novich, to defend him - I remember Sirius Black was guilty of his murder of Peter, and his activities as a dark wizard, and he was caught just as Voldemort had fallen. It was time to liquidate the Death Eaters. You see, attacking wizards and attacking Muggles are two different things. ”

"What do you think now, that's your point of view when you were six or seven years old. Hermione said fairly.

"The sentence is light, today he will take revenge on Muggles, and tomorrow he can take revenge on wizards. This kind of thing should be handled on the same level as the crime of murder, otherwise what is the deterrent effect of the law? Our laws are basically equal to nothing, and there is no way to do it, the wizarding world cannot guarantee the mandatory law, who can catch Voldemort. Phoenix said insincerely, glancing at Harry not far away, "There are so many things like this, if you really plan to practice law, you're going to run into a lot of them." ”
