Chapter 585: Persuasion (Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Collections, Asking for Tickets)
The last Death Eater to invade Hogwarts was now in utter shock, as she discovered that the black mist of the resentful spirit that was her killer weapon had suddenly flown towards her in defiance of her command, before sinking into her chest in a scream of surprise. In an instant, a soul-torn pain hit her mind, and she immediately lost all consciousness.
"Innocent children, you have taken revenge, now please go where you need to go, and don't get lost in the world of the living. Hermione said in a magical Quenya language as the black mist representing the innocent dead tore apart the white ball of light representing the soul of the Death Eater.
The black soul listened to Hermione's words, and then slowly faded to black, and then scattered into more than 60 white dots, flying around Hermione three times. The three people present seemed to hear the child's laughter like a silver bell.
Hermione then opened a small blood-red vortex that led straight to the world of the dead. The white dots of light immediately lined up and disappeared into the whirlpool.
Malfoy leaned against the barrier the entire time, holding his right hand against the handkerchief wrapped around the stump of his left hand, motionless. Because he felt that a pair of scrutinizing eyes were always on him, and if he dared to act rashly, he would inevitably be dealt a fatal blow.
"Throw your wand to the ground, you have made a great mistake today, but you will not sin unto death. Don't try to resist giving us an excuse to kill you. At this time, Ryan stepped out of the black fog and pointed his wand at Malfoy.
"-Okay. Malfoy froze for a few seconds as Ryan spoke, then pulled his wand from himself and threw it on the ground. "Looks like I'm a complete failure today, but can you tell me how Pansy is doing?"
"She was knocked unconscious by us and hidden, not in danger of her life. Hermione had now scavenged all the eye-catching loot from the five corpses, and waited for her to come and say. "You can still think of Pansy, which means you're not incorrigibly bad. So can you tell us why you're doing this?"
"I'm a pure-blood wizard, shouldn't I support the Dark Lord? I can only say that I'm unlucky and don't know the true strength of the two of you, otherwise it would definitely not be our people who died today, but the two of you. Malfoy said with a slight tilt of face.
"You really don't need to act here at this time. Ryan smiled, but his wand never moved away. "We just counted the five life-seeking spells, but we didn't see you, I don't think you're one of the same people as those crazy people who are passionate about killing. β
"Murderous madman, are you talking about you?" At this time, under Hermione's spell, the black smoke that had previously filled the corridor completely disappeared, revealing five corpses on the ground. Malfoy looked at the corpses and looked up at Ryan, who sarcastically said. "You weren't raised like Dumbledore. β
"Who we were raised has nothing to do with the topic of discussion, and besides, we're not crazy people, we just kill the damned ones to make the world a better place. You haven't done any damage right now, and you're not permanently harming anyone. Ryan said, "So you don't have to worry about our sudden outburst and kill you." By the way, Hermione and I would love to know why you're doing this. Because we can feel that your heart may be timid, or because you still have that little bit of kindness, you should not like to kill. β
"I don't have a choice!" Ryan's words seemed to be a fuse that made Malfoy, who had been under pressure, collapse, and he crouched down and shouted, "I have to do it! He will kill me!
"Mystery man? That's his style. Ryan nodded slightly, "I used to think that a Death Eater like yours would get a lot of benefits, I really didn't expect you to have such a miserable life." Then I wonder what the hell you're trying to do with him?"
"We don't have a choice. "Maybe it's because the psychological defense line has been breached, so Malfoy is very simple to say these things. "He's going to kill everyone who doesn't follow his orders, and I really have no other way to do what he says, and bring these people to school according to his orders. β
"In that case, I suggest you stand on the side of justice. Hermione told Malfoy that although she hadn't spared any of her hands in the fight with the Death Eaters, she had offered to give Malfoy a chance.
"As you said, Malfoy did a lot of wrong things, but he didn't sin to death. Hermione explained to Ryan through the Phoenix Brand. "At the same time, it is very beneficial for us to divide the Mystic camp, and the most important thing is that although the Malfoy family belongs to the pure-blood family, they have actually been vaguely ostracized by other pure-blood families, you can see that no one in the Malfoy family has served as a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic or Hogwarts. I know they're the most disgusting racists, but at least they're better than the Death Eaters who go around killing people. β
"You're right, they have hope of saving. At this time, Ryan thought of the merit forest in the 50s of his previous life, and if the method is correct, the emperor Dì Dū can be reformed, and the racist should be able to do the same. Not to mention that the Malfoys are not die-hard terrorists like Bella, and they will naturally give in when they are strongly suppressed.
"No, no. Malfoy shook his head frantically. "I've gone too far now to turn back. And I have a family. β
"We know your goal this time is to assassinate Dumbledore, but don't you see that the mystery man is only sending you to die?" Ryan sneered. "He's just trying to punish your father for last year's defeat, and by the way, warn his Death Eaters what the consequences will be if they fail. β
"I-" Malfoy was about to say something, but Hermione stepped forward and grabbed Malfoy's collar and picked him up with one hand, then poked his wand in his face.
"Ryan, there's no need to talk nonsense with him. We've cleared out five Death Eaters today, and since he's not willing to be on the side of justice, it doesn't matter if he's on the side of justice, fighting the enemy always has to be sacrificed. What's more, the famous Malfoy family seems to have only three people plus him-"
"I join the side of justice, and I join now. Malfoy cried out with tears in his eyes closed, he had just sensed a hint of madness in Hermione's calm-looking brown eyes that he had seen in the eyes of his aunt Bella over the summer.
Moreover, the five corpses now lay on the ground reminded him that Ryan and Hermione were completely different from the rest of the Order of the Phoenix, and that they were closer to Death Eaters in their attitude towards uncooperatives. Under such pressure, he had to make his choice immediately.
"Good, keep your choice in mind. Hermione threw the crying Malfoy to the ground, and then said to Ryan through the Phoenix Brand, "You see, for this kind of person, your kind of persuasion is useless, only this is the only way to do it." β
"You're right. Ryan admits that Hermione is doing the right thing right now, and that Malfoy has done so much this year, but he's actually just a confused young man. Hermione had just exuded the momentum of killing hundreds of people, and Malfoy immediately succumbed.
"But my mother, and my fatherβ" Malfoy said after a few sobs.
"Your father is not in danger in Azkaban at the moment, and as for your mother, we can set off together to get her out later. In this case tonight, I'm sure it won't be too much trouble for someone to look at your mother. Ryan said.
After that, under the watchful eye of Ryan them. The three of them walked into the Room of Requirement together to check the details of the Disappearing Cabinet.
