Chapter 192: Old Grievances at Hogwarts (33)
Phyllis said: "Okay, that's it, the word that the Ministry of Magic asked me to pass has arrived, you hurry back and rest, your face is ugly now." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Oh, really?" Lupin smiled reluctantly, the conversation with Phyllis brought back a lot of past events that he didn't want to recall, and it was indeed a little sad.
After Lupin left, Phyllis still did not leave, and the Forbidden Forest was quiet in winter, and this warm cabin was indeed a good environment to think about.
After some investigation of the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, Phyllis discovers that Lupin can be used as a breakthrough for herself.
Now that Phyllis has hammered a nail on Voldemort's side - Lucius Malfoy, when Voldemort was at his peak, he was able to mix with the core of the Death Eaters, and after Voldemort lost power, he escaped the arrest of the Ministry of Magic with his clever words, this is definitely a scheming person, Phyllis believes that with her help, Lucius can regain the leadership of the Death Eaters. Of course, ability is one thing, and whether or not you are controlled by yourself is another, and Lucius still has a good "performance" in this regard. As long as Phyllis controls Draco, she controls the future and hopes of the Malfoy family, and she controls the father who has run out of tricks. As a Slytherin who was proud of his family and a pure-blood, Lucius's only son was definitely a fatal heel for him, and as long as he mastered this little boy, he would control the Malfoy family. Dumbledore devoted his life to the spread of love, and his status and prestige prevented him from doing anything to threaten his father with his children, and Voldemort was because of his inner pride, this half-blood Dark Lord had a sensitive and extremely proud heart, and he disdained to use this kind of subterfuge. But Phyllis is different, as a trialist of the seventh space, she is an extreme pragmatist, as long as it is useful, in the seventh space, surviving is already the biggest problem, and using some rules and regulations to increase the difficulty for herself is pure death. Although the means are not very bright, Phyllis uses a clever way to make Lucius not prevent Drake from becoming his student even if he knows that there is some kind of danger around him, on the contrary, he believes that getting in touch with Phyllis is a retreat and a guarantee. At the same time, Phyllis also took care not to irritate Lucius too much, it is very dangerous to push a person to a dead end, and it is not good to really get a fish to kill Phyllis.
Phyllis has always done a good job of controlling people's hearts, and she has now succeeded in making Lucius think that they are partners, and because her son is on her side, Lucius has to make concessions to her in some places, and Phyllis is still very satisfied with this, and it is not a good thing for her to really take the lead like Voldemort.
With Lucius as a "partner", Phyllis can understand and influence Voldemort's plans, so that the situation develops in her favor, for example, now that Dumbledore's momentum is better, she can reveal a little information to Voldemort and help them secretly.
But the world is unpredictable, who knows what the situation will be like when Voldemort does return, and what if Dumbledore is not as strong as he is now, and this Voldemort who died once really makes a comeback? So Phyllis now needs to find another "partner" on the side of the Order of the Phoenix, and only when both sides have their own people and both sides can exert influence can this game be opened.
Phyllis has been looking for such a person, and it would have been ideal to have the best relationship with Professor Flitwick, but later Phyllis found out that he was not actually a core member of the Order of the Phoenix and had no influence on Dumbledore, and the rest like McGonagall and Hagrid Although they were newly appointed by Dumbledore, Phyllis was not sure that they could control them. This was a very dangerous step, Phyllis herself was teaching at Hogwarts under Dumbledore's control, and she really didn't dare to make a move without being sure. Now, Phyllis has finally arrived, and Professor Lupin is the best candidate for her.
Lupin is smart, powerful, and has a kind heart despite being a werewolf, and never wants to hurt anyone, all of which are very much in line with Dumbledore's philosophy, and in fact, he is deeply trusted by Dumbledore. At the same time, Lupin also has his own ideas and ideas, unlike Professor Flitwick, he does not have blind worship of Dumbledore, he will express his thoughts and opinions to Dumbledore, this independent personality gives him the possibility of influencing Dumbledore, and also facilitates Phyllis and his secret contact. Most importantly, he is controllable. Of course, the method is completely different from the control of Lucius, although Phyllis also knows that Lupin is very caring for the orphans of her good friend, but she does not intend to threaten or exchange Harry's safety, that will only provoke Lupin's anger, for a kind person like him, the most useful thing is to treat with kindness as well.
Phyllis is just a pragmatist person, she is not evil or cruel, and she can be very kind if needed.
Thinking of this, Phyllis took out a pen and paper from the bookcase next to her and began to write to Carl. Of course, the Ministry of Magic didn't have anything to say to Phyllis, she just borrowed Carl's name, although it was not a big deal, but she still wrote to tell Carl that it was better, and at the end of the letter, Phyllis wrote:
"Through this conversation, I don't think Lupin is controlled by the bloodthirsty desires in his heart like other werewolves, he is a kind and upright person, I believe he will not hurt anyone, just give him a trust and understanding, he will be an important force in maintaining the order of the wizarding world, not the destroyer of order as most people think."
Phyllis read it after it was written, folded it and put it in the letter, and asked Amy to send it out, she believed that her words would have a certain effect, and there was still some weight in the hearts of those people.
Send the letter out, today's business is finally done, by this time it is already past ten o'clock in the evening, Phyllis yawned, and was about to go back to bed.
Just then, Amy suddenly walked in and whispered something in Phyllis's ear. After hearing this, Phyllis's face became a little gloomy, although she had made so many preparations before, she was indeed a little nervous in the face of the upcoming challenge.
Phyllis said, "Prepare, I'll rest here today." ”
"Yes, master." Amy said in a high-pitched voice.
Probably psychologically, Phyllis feels a kind of depression when she is at Hogwarts Castle, and if she needs to relax or think about something, she still likes to stay outside, such as the cabin in the Forbidden Forest, where she will have a special kind of relaxation.
This cabin was originally built by Phyllis to relax, and the room on the east side was her bedroom, and she could rest after a little arrangement.
Phyllis lay on the soft bed, looking out at the stars through the wooden window, not knowing what she was thinking......
After a few months of training, Hogwarts House Cup matches resumed, with Ravenclaw in the first match, this time against Gryffindor.
It was a Tuesday afternoon, and it was a good day to race, the sky was cloudless, blue, and it was already February, and the slight breeze was a lot warmer, not as bitterly cold as before.
Phyllis happened to have no class that day, so she came to the arena early, and she came to the team's lounge first.
Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Bella, who was discussing tactics, looked over and saw that it was Professor Kate, and she said happily, "Professor, you are here." "Ever since Phyllis lent them those three illumination crystals, Bella's affection for Phyllis has skyrocketed.
Phyllis nodded and asked Bella, "How is it, are you sure this time?" ”
Bella looked a little excited, her cheeks flushed, and she said firmly, "We will definitely win this time." For this competition, Bella is full of confidence, with the lighting crystal ball lent to them by Professor Kate, the Ravenclaw team has to train a lot more time than other teams, especially when Bella heard that this kind of lighting crystal ball that can emit such a strong intensity of light is made by Professor Kate himself, and there is no sale on the market at all. This little secret of theirs was discovered after training a few times, but it is known that now, no other team has obtained such a good night lighting tool.
"Okay." Phyllis said with a smile.
It's a good thing to have self-confidence, Phyllis can only make this judgment, after all, she really doesn't know much about Quidditch, she looked at the other team members, and said: "You too, you must work hard this time to help Ravenclaw House win this year's House Cup." ”
The Ravenclaw players shouted, "We will win!" ”
Phyllis looked at the team's Seeker, Zhang Qiu, and asked, "What about you, how are you preparing, I heard that Harry of Gryffindor has obtained a fire bolt." ”
Zhang Qiu said confidently: "The Fire Crossbow Arrow is indeed a good flying broomstick, but for our students, the Halo 2001 is enough, and I will definitely be able to get the Golden Snitch this time." ”
Phyllis said, "Okay, I'll be in the audience to watch you fight." With a few words of encouragement, Phyllis walked out of the team's lounge, where they needed to make the most of this precious time to agree on tactics.
Phyllis returned to the audience, and next to her sat Professor Flitwick, the dean of Ravenclaw College.
Seeing Phyllis coming, Professor Flitwick smiled and asked, "Why are you here today?" The students may not know much about it, but Professor Flitwick does know that Phyllis doesn't have a particular fondness for Quidditch, or any sport.
Phyllis sat down and said, "It's nothing, I've encountered so much trouble with you during this time, so I just took this opportunity to relax." ”
Flitwick sighed slightly, he knew what Phyllis was referring to, all the teachers at Hogwarts were quite busy during this time, mainly to deal with the attack on Anthony's death.
