Chapter 101: Last Chance
PS: This is yesterday's chapter.
I've added two new chapters to the front.
————————————————
Hogwarts is peaceful.
No matter how strong the storm outside, it can't break through the high wall of this thousand years.
At this time, a day had passed since Anthony's trial.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione were worried.
They had spent the whole day yesterday in terror, because Hermione, after returning from the library, told them that if Anthony was convicted, then he would probably have to take it with him in Azkaban for at least a few decades.
But... This did not happen.
To their surprise, only one day later, they met Anthony at Hogwarts early the next morning.
In addition, Anthony was accompanied by a Ministry of Magic official who claimed to be the High Inquisitor at Hogwarts.
It was a woman who looked like a pink toad.
There is a tiresome atmosphere between the smiles and smiles.
As soon as she arrived at Hogwarts, she announced in the Great Hall that Headmaster Dumbledore had been dismissed from the school board and that Hogwarts was now directly under the management of the Ministry of Magic.
Since then, more than a dozen bans have been promulgated in succession.
In this regard, although the professors on both sides were full of anger on their faces, they were helpless and never refuted.
...
"What's going on? The headmaster was kicked out? Are they crazy? ”
In the Gryffindor Tower, Ron asked in surprise, everyone knew that Dumbledore was the greatest white wizard in the world. He really couldn't figure out how someone would be stupid enough to get rid of Dumbledore?
"I'm the one who caused the headmaster."
Anthony sat in an armchair by the fireplace with a group of friends, and he sighed, inexplicably a little irritated.
"They think Dumbledore has fallen to the Muggles, you know, Fudge's mind is all about how to stabilize power."
He sighed and rubbed his temples.
The way things are turned out is definitely not what he wants to see.
Look at what the Harry Potter story looks like now!
Umbridge was admitted to Hogwarts in her first year.
Even if Fudge is about to fall, according to the tradition of the transition of political power, he can at least make it through this year until next Christmas.
That is, Anthony will have to endure at least a whole year!
Hehe!
All year round!
The old toad looked at his eyes, he dared to guarantee that within half a month, it was estimated that he would be tortured and almost should apply to withdraw from school, so could he last a whole year?
"It's not your fault, Anthony!" Hermione said loudly: "I have turned over the law, you have not broken the law at all, I can only say that wizards never thought that there would be a royal family to become wizards..."
...
In fact, they have not yet recovered from the surprise that Anthony is a prince.
Hermione and Harry, in particular, still look at him strangely now.
"Although, what you say makes a lot of sense..."Anthony was still a little frustrated...
His original plan was never so fast, he had conceived of it until the third year, and after Sirius escaped from prison, they were looking for an opportunity to put pressure on the Ministry of Magic!
But now?
The situation is getting more and more ghostly, and even the plot he knew well in advance has become chicken.
Oh!
Speaking of the plot...
What's going on with that guy Quirrell? Quietly.
Ever since you visited the principal's office, there has really been no movement at all?
And Harry, they're really, why don't they push the plot?
What about Hagrid? Help!
This... The plot of the first grade is shattered, how can he put it up?
...
Just when he was in a state of melancholy, he suddenly realized, why is this year's Gryffindor lounge so quiet?
Aren't the Twins usually showing movies?
Where did the two of them go today?
"What about George and Fred?" He turned to Ron and asked.
"Who knows? The two of them said they were going to 'buy'. Then I didn't see anyone in the morning. Ron pouted.
"Restocking?"
"Oh!"
That should be to Hogsmeade, Anthony mused.
Those two guys don't seem to have completely given up on their little inventions!
It's good, it's just a part-time job for him!
The more they earn, the more they share.
It's just that...
Why did he have some bad premonitions?
...
"The red-haired Weasley, a well-known pure-blood family in England, is like a goblin, and in a few years, a whole bunch of them will pop up."
Hogsmeade Village. Deep in the street, in the remote dilapidated house, the man looked at the two children in front of him with contempt.
In front of them, there were two red-haired little wizards who looked exactly the same.
They just floated in the air, their eyes closed, their whole body twitching, as if they were resisting something.
"Quite a talent, to be able to resist the Imperius Curse for so long, if it weren't for killing them to cause Dumbledore to go crazy, otherwise these scourges should really be removed."
"How did you know that these two imps had a way in and out of Hogwarts?" Jin Cangshui, who was on the sofa on the side, sipped the tea in his hand and asked in a low voice.
"It's simple." The man smiled slightly, "When I was in the second year, these two little ones were wandering around the village of Hogsmeade, they must have known some secret passages to Hogwarts, or something like that, otherwise it would be impossible for the second year to appear in the village!" ”
“...”
Jin Cangshui was a little speechless for a while, and only after a moment did she turn her head to look at him, the vigilance in her eyes pulled down the highest, and said, "How long have you been hiding here?" ”
“?”
"How long?"
"It's been many years! Hum! I don't remember. ”
"Then you're loyal." Jin Cangshui sneered, but his heart was pounding. A force is so big that the whole world is full of their people, and these guys are so loyal...
It's horrible.
"Loyalty? That's what it is. The man said in a tone that looked like garbage, "The cheapest thing." ”
"It's just an assembly line product."
...
The room suddenly fell silent, neither side was speechless, and the atmosphere froze strangely.
After a few moments, the man stood up. Patted the non-existent dust on the clothes.
A smile cracked into the corners of his mouth.
"It's here."
"What are they going to do?" Jin Cangshui then slowly got up and looked at the twin roads.
"If you've been caught in the Imperius curse, you won't be able to wake up for a while."
"Now. We should go, this is the only chance, after tomorrow, Dumbledore may transfer the Philosopher's Stone somewhere else. ”
...
From rushing to Hogsmeade Village to capturing the Twins.
On the first day of February, it was getting late.
The earth has fallen asleep, along with the whole village...
Since the last battle, the professors of Hogwarts have forbidden young wizards to come here, and the village, which was still noisy, has suddenly fallen silent.
After Christmas, the lights in front of the shops are also taken off.
At night, there are hardly any people on the streets.
Some are just howling winds.
From time to time, there will be a sound of metal colliding on the street, which is the sound of the door number of the store colliding, which is also the source of the weirdness.
In the darkness, something is waiting for an opportunity.
