Chapter 70: The Change of the Two Classics
Harry left in despair, and that night, the whole Hogwarts was in an uproar during the great battle at the Ministry of Magic, and the Daily Prophet even used the front-page headline "The Fall of the Ministry of Magic", accompanied by a photo of Dumbledore escaping from the Ministry of Magic with the Aurors in embarrassment, to report this sensational news, in the photo, the Aurors looked at the camera sadly and desperately, and Dumbledore's eyes were tired and looked unusually old.
Most wizards who read the Daily Prophet thought that Dumbledore was dying of old ageβhe might be able to deal with his old rival Voldemort, but he seemed powerless to cope with the new and evil threats that were emerging.
When it was finally clear and the sun was rising, Harry was dragged by Hermione and Ron into the Great Hall, where the Hogwarts students were already boiling over for breakfast.
Malfoy's face was a little pale, he glanced at Harry meaningfully, and whispered, "Dumbledore is old!" A new order in the wizarding world will be created by young people...... Look at his long white beard, and even if we can trust him not to make the stupid mistakes of an old man, he will not be more responsive to new threats...... He'll just be able to deal with Voldemort. β
"A Dark Lord as old as he is!"
Harry didn't react at all to his nemesis' taunts, and he didn't seem to have digested the enmity of Sirius, Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew with his parents last night, and he bent slightly to hide the golden copy of the Ministry of Magic that his hand was clutching in his arms, and stroked the uneven hieroglyphs on it, his heart was tormented and hesitant.
A large group of owls broke into the Hogwarts dining room, and the owls here were almost all that Hogwarts managed - it seemed that every wizard had sent letters to his children, some of which fell in front of a third-year wizard in Gryffindor, and those envelopes were covered with black and white skins, and some were tied with a white chrysanthemum or a sobbing potion flower.
The little wizard was almost stupid in his seat, his eyes quickly accumulating moisture, and his expression desperate and incredulous.
Hermione whispered, "Oh my God! What's wrong with that? That must be a very bad thing. β
Ron whispered to her, "That's a letter of condolence, a memorial letter, and maybe a eulogy......," Ron said when he saw a witch break into the dining room and take away a young wizard from Hufflepuff, leaving behind a message as she left, "Help me apologize to Professor Dumbledore...... I know I should trust him, but ...... Fear is driving me crazy! He had to go home, and we went back to his grandmother's house, far away in Brazil...... Hopefully, I can avoid those terrible things. Without finishing her sentence, she pulled on her scarf, took the hand of the first-year wizard, and hurried away!
This was by no means the only witch to do so, Ron even saw Neville's uncle hurrying into the headmaster's office, but thankfully, Neville wasn't called away.
Dumbledore hurried to the hall with some hurry, he looked at the partially empty table, silently opened his mouth, silently changed the empty chairs, Dumbledore came to the podium, the bronze owl wings silently opened, and Dumbledore's voice was clearly transmitted to the ears of anyone present.
Including those heartless Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry exchange students.
"From today, there will be at least three professors on duty every night, and students will be absolutely forbidden to be in the corridors during night walks or curfew, and the permission for senior students to go to Hogsmeade Village at Christmas time will be temporarily lifted...... You may have heard about what happened at the Ministry of Magic, but I warn you again - it's the fear itself that really scares us. β
"Courage is not only in recklessness, but also in people's composure and bravery."
Chen Ang calmly looked at the crowd of beings below, the book Harry hid in his arms, the metal pages that Malfoy tugged on, the eager Durmstrang exchange student, led by the little man Yakov, who was always like a wind-up goblin, and Snape, who looked at Harry and thought silently.
and the stargazing devil eel on the plate in front of him - a spiral-like spiral of dense serrations like a lamprey, a dish that is exactly the same as the famous British Muggle dish - lamprey looking up at the starry sky, is simply a pillar of shame for Hogwarts house-elves.
This breakfast, everyone has a little bit of food.
Especially after watching Chen Ang calmly bite open the head of the lamprey eel, Snape left his seat first, hoping that he didn't go to the kitchen to protest that he couldn't keep the precious potion material.
"Harry!" After breakfast, Ron and Hermione hurried after Harry and said nervously, "Today...... You're okay today! Ron looked worried. A myriad of ...... I didn't know what to do. β
"You know what?" Harry looked back solemnly and asked, "Spotted is an Animagus...... And most likely one of the culprits who killed my parents, he escaped punishment from the law. Ron's mouth was wide open, a little frightened, "I knew it...... I knew no rat could live that long......"
"I've been asking myself." Harry said, "Ask yourself what I am going to do with him if I find him and confirm it to him?" Ron? β
"I ......," Ron said, "I don't know...... I haven't reacted from what I just did. β
Hermione grabbed Harry's hand and said, "You should leave it to the Aurors!" Don't stare into the abyss...... Harry. β
"But...... I really want to kill him! Harry said, "It's not a spur of the moment, it's a ...... Well-thought-out results. β
"You see your mouse turn into a dwarf wizard, Ron. And this person, who may be Peter Pettigrew, appeared in the place where the unicorn died, although we know that Malfoy killed the unicorn, but it is obviously not only Malfoy who needs the unicorn's blood, there is also a person who appears there who also needs this. β
Ron and Hermione said in unison, "Voldemort (Mystery)"
"Malfoy caught Voldemort, but I'd rather believe he only caught part of Voldemort...... There is also Voldemort, hidden in the dark. It's on Peter Pettigrew! β
"I'll have to take a look at the black-skinned magic book that Malfoy has in his hand......" Harry said solemnly, "it probably contains something that poses a mortal threat to Voldemort, and the secret of how Malfoy has become so crazy." β
