Chapter 115 114
"Poison Potion?" Harry raised his eyebrows, "Interesting, what are you going to do?"
"Give it to my dad."
"Oh?" Harry tilted his head, "Haven't you said goodbye to this mantra for a long time?"
Draco rolled his eyes, "It's definitely not something easy to sneak into Hogwarts at this time, of course it must be handed over to my father."
"Then you have to move quickly, and be careful of being snatched first." Harry casually flipped through the notes of experience that Hermione handed in.
"Hmph, I've already informed my dad with a double-sided mirror. Writing a letter isn't safe." Drake curled his lips, "It's never over, although I must say I should thank that little Wes for giving me this opportunity , but he can't take back what he said."
"Oh," Harry sighed, "poor little one."
Drake was suddenly surprised, "No way, you still have such a thing as sympathy?"
Harry tilted his head, "Actually, I think Mr. Big Wesley is quite creative, but unfortunately he is not smart enough, otherwise he might actually be able to make a career out of it."
Draco sneered.
"Change starts bit by bit. Don't underestimate this kind of small change. Didn't you support Hermione's words about the technological power of the ordinary people's world? They have the ability to fly into space, with Faster trains, cars, heavier ships, more destructive weapons. These things and the results of magic sometimes lead to the same goal.”
Harry raised a finger, "As far as I know, ordinary people already have a lot of ideas about flying cars. If Mr. Weasley can really improve and successfully obtain a stable flying car that can be commercialized, then according to According to the patent law in the world of ordinary people, he can completely guarantee that his technology will not be disclosed, and it is actually easy to obtain a patent with a little magic, isn't it? Just wait for a while, and ordinary people's technology will improve a little bit, then This kind of flying car can appear in the world of ordinary people without shocking the world, and can completely monopolize the market before other flying cars have been researched by real technology. Can you imagine what a huge profit this is? ?”
Draco's expression became serious.
"What you said is true?"
"Of course it's not that easy to implement, but the feasibility is certain." Harry smiled slightly, and Draco shook reflexively, "Otherwise, what do you think your father is busy with now? There are really so many people in the wizarding world." Can you do business for him?"
Draco did get a hint of this from his father during the holidays, and he silently signaled Harry to continue.
"Think about it, the reason why wizards live in such a closed place is because they want to protect ordinary people? In this case, why not enclose them like ordinary people protect rare wild animals, but enclose themselves? Therefore, wizards Closure is to protect oneself, which is wise, but not for long. Magic is too magical for ordinary people, and the number of wizards is too small. The little wizards born in ordinary families recruited every year are too difficult for the closed magical world. It is risk, and I think this is probably one of the reasons why Slytherin insisted on pure blood in the first place. Therefore, the best way is-"interest", intertwining the interests of ordinary people with the interests of wizards, so close that once ordinary people If a person wants to attack a wizard, he will suffer heavy losses. In this way, there will be a relative balance. "
Draco frowned, "You mean, change."
Harry shrugged. "The future is yours, of course, and that of your children and grandchildren. My thoughts are my thoughts, and the choice is yours."
Draco was used to Harry's indifferent attitude.
Drake, who has matured quickly, understands even if he is still a little naive, under absolute power, nothing must be taken seriously, so with Harry's strength, he can't repay anything at all, and even if this The grant was just Harry's whim, and to him it was no different from Merlin's gift.Thinking back to the first time he met Harry, or maybe, Draco thought a little self-deprecatingly, he should be grateful for the color of his hair.
Who would have thought that the platinum hair color they had always been proud of saved the Malfoy family from the brink of crisis.
Unable to bear it, Draco burst out laughing.
Harry glanced at him inexplicably, "Hermione's hair is brown, are you sure your next generation's hair can keep the current color?"
Draco's laughter was choked up, and his face turned into a liver color.
"Don't just read other people's thoughts, are you the Dark Lord!" No!Who said that his next generation has something to do with that violent woman with big teeth!
Harry showed a classic "smile" at Draco who wanted to growl, and the poor little dragon was bullied again and had no power to fight back.
The atmosphere of the old dragon who enjoys the fun of "teaching tirelessly" and the platinum dragon who has been destroyed tirelessly is very "harmonious", while the atmosphere in the principal's office on the other side is not so pleasant.
After listening to Professor McGonagall's narration full of responsibility and Moody's upright attitude, Dumbledore frowned unhappily.
He thought that Severus, who was protecting his weaknesses, would come to the door, but he didn't, which gave him a bad feeling.
If it weren't for the recent events that made him feel more and more powerless to control, he would not be willing to let Moody enter Hogwarts.
It is true that Moody used to be a brave Oro, but that is already a thing of the past, and now Moody has long been known as Mad-Eye. His past achievements did not make him respected, but he is now violent His extreme personality and ferocious appearance make more people feel fear and dodge when they mention him.
When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you.
Dumbledore may not know this sentence, but he knows that although Moody is the most resolute fighter against the dark wizard, he is also extremely easy to lose control, and choosing him is just a helpless move.Dumbledore didn't expect him to make such a big mess so quickly.
If Moody's "punishment" was triggered because the little Malfoy attacked his classmates first and was discovered by Moody, then even though it was too much, it was justifiable.But everyone can prove that before Moody's attack, Malfoy not only didn't draw out his wand, but even tried to calm down the explosive scene.
After cooperating with Regulus, Malfoy is no longer what it used to be. He is no longer the "soft persimmon" who needs to shrink back to protect himself after the fall of the Dark Lord. Now he can only hope to find the original two sides of the matter. Control the situation in the contradictions among the students.
But can things really develop as Dumbledore expected?
The overwhelming reports of the incident in the "Daily Prophet" the next day completely frustrated Dumbledore's idea of calming down.
What on earth do you want to do to our children, crony Dumbledore? ! "
Very eye-catching title, the author is still our Miss Rita Skeeter.
Continuing from the previous report, Ms. Rita Skeeter listed a series of "deeds" of Mad-Eye Moody in more detail in recent years. At the same time, those who were shot were all the wonderful defense against the black arts who changed every year. He is an art professor, and Hagrid who has no scruples to let students disarm all kinds of dangerous magical creatures according to his own preferences.
The pen is very spicy.
[A former Oro, a non-professor who can't control his perennial alcoholism, violent tendencies and attacks innocent students for no reason, can freely enter Hogwarts just by a word from Headmaster Dumbledore.
A half-giant who broke his wand and expelled from school because he violated the school regulations by raising ultra-dangerous magical creatures without authorization. Because Headmaster Dumbledore can stay in Hogwarts as a forest guard with a word, what's more, he can't even take any magic exams. A forester who doesn't even have a qualification certificate can succeed as a professor of magical biology at Hogwarts.
If the noble Professor Regulus Black hadn't applied to the school board, would that fair competition still exist, and what would the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor be like today?
For this reason, I should really thank Mr. Lucius Malfoy, who spoke out for the school board, on behalf of the parents. Because of his righteous words, our children can get a qualified and excellent professor, not Dumbledore's close one. Those wonderful things that mislead others' children!
Hogwarts has a thousand-year history, and the four colleges have always been a whole.
There are students who can confidently believe that Dumbledore has the right to expel a college he dislikes from Hogwarts. Can we think that Hogwarts has become Dumbledore's private property today? , just need his words, you can regard Hogwarts as the base camp for him to train his confidants and place his subordinates!
Hogwarts is the common home of all wizards, the place where all young wizards grow up, not a hotbed of evil for a hypocrite who takes credit and plays with power! 】
So don't underestimate anyone, even a little person like Rita Skeeter who is famous for her exaggerated words and sensationalism hides a sharp and powerful fighting power.
This report, which can be called a call to arms, instantly detonated the entire British magic circle.
Dumbledore has been standing on the altar for too long, and it has been a long time since he was pointed at the nose and slapped in the face.
It should be thanked that some insiders did not spread the blood of Professor Lupine, otherwise this incident may really lift Dumbledore from the altar.
Almost all the professors and small animals read today's Daily Prophet—with the cooperation of multiple forces, it was published very quickly.
As a result, the breakfast time changed from the bustle and bustle of the past, and the entire hall was so quiet that it could be heard.
Moody did not appear on the professor's long table, and everyone's peripheral vision was aimed at Dumbledore, who was not smiling at all.
The little snakes on the long Slytherin table raised their chests and sneered indiscriminately.
On the long table in Gryffindor, the Wesley twins hugged their younger brother tightly. They all read the newspaper. Ron's furious words must have spread, and the twins were sensitive to their younger brother's indiscretions. It brought a lot of trouble to Dumbledore, so they were so annoyed that they almost didn't have the mind to think about the Triwizard Tournament.
A silent breakfast was over, and no one moved.
Dumbledore tapped his glass lightly and stood up.
"I believe everyone has read today's "Daily Prophet". For some of the above content, I admit that I was negligent. As a principal, I should be responsible for every student. For Mr. Malfoy Jr. and George Weiss On behalf of Moody, I would like to apologize to the two of you for what happened to you, and I hope you can understand."
George Weiss, who has always liked pranks and is not afraid of making a fool of himself, didn't care much about being turned into a ferret in public. After all, he was just a random disaster, and his brother even protected him. , so he pressed Ron with one hand, scratched his head with the other, and grinned, saying it didn't matter.
Dumbledore nodded to him in relief, "You are such a generous boy, I am so proud of you, and I apologize again for Moody's missing you."
Turning his gaze to another "victim", Mr. Malfoy was not so easy to talk to.
Drake stood up calmly, and unexpectedly nodded to George Weiss first.
"Please allow me to express my apologies for causing Mr. George Weisley to suffer unnecessarily because of me."
As soon as these words came out, not only George was stunned, but all the small animals in the hall were also a little stunned.
A Slytherin apologizing to a Gryffindor, or for something that wasn't his fault at all?
Merlin, what's wrong with you, are you dozing off?
"If it's just because of me personally, then to put it bluntly, I don't take it to heart. Even though I am young, I am not a weak person. If Mr. Moody has any opinions on me, I don't even mind asking him to be an interviewer. Enlightenment, I am willing to humbly accept any legitimate and reasonable corrections, even if they are too strict."
All the Slytherin students showed extremely mocking expressions on the faces of all the Slytherin students when they heard Drake's slow-paced emphasis on being young and face-to-face.
"However," Drake's tone changed, "The words of Mr. Ron Weasley and Mr. Moody are aimed at and slandering Slytherin as a whole. I think not only the "Daily Prophet" is true published, the impartial Professor McGonagall must have told you the truth. Slytherin is a part of Hogwarts that has not changed since thousands of years ago. Mr. Moody believes that all Slytherins are dark wizards, and If you think this is a tradition, then it must also include the great Professor Salazar Slytherin. Mr. Ron Wesley accused all Slytherins of being evil Death Eaters and believed that the respected Headmaster Dumbledore has the power to ban Slytherin House."
Having said that, Draco looked around everyone in the hall with a half-smile.
"We all know that Professor Salazar Slytherin left Hogwarts because of disagreements. His idea of only absorbing pure-blood wizards seems narrow today, but in the environment at that time Next, isn’t it his obsession with protecting the little wizard? What’s more, even after Mr. Slytherin left, the other three founders still kept the Slytherin house and respected Mr. Cap selects the appropriate student.
The three founders maintain the four colleges as a whole. Dear Headmaster Dumbledore, is there any misunderstanding that made your beloved Gryffindor think that your authority can surpass the great founder of Hogwarts, and Under your authority, the people you favor can freely slander and insult those who don't like you?Compared with Mr. Moody's unprovoked attack on me, I think all of us Slytherins need an explanation why we are also Hogwarts students, even in my grandmother's generation, between Gryffindor and Slytherin. Marriages between people are still very common, but now, Slytherin has become a concentration of criminals, and is rejected by everyone? "
Old Long Ha, who was sitting on the Hufflepuff long table, said with satisfaction that this kid has really improved.
Drake straightforwardly pointed out Dumbledore's preference for Gryffindor and prejudice against Slytherin. Although he didn't add a single word, it made many Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students feel sympathetic Yan.
Dumbledore was born in Gryffindor, he was the headmaster.
However, Professor McGonagall, Dumbledore's most trusted vice-principal, is also a Gryffindor.
In this environment, Gryffindor students naturally have a sense of superiority over others.Although they hate Slytherin the most, it doesn't mean they didn't show Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students that we are first-rate and you are second- and third-rate in words and deeds, especially Hufflepuff Qi felt the deepest.
Slytherin's unpopularity is due to many factors, including political and historical reasons, as well as their own arrogant and unlikable reasons, which is normal.
But in fact, Gryffindor's popularity in other colleges is not much stronger than that of Slytherin.It’s okay for girls, after all, wizards get married early, and girls are bestsellers, but most male lions with flamboyant and arrogant personalities are really not very flattering.
Drake's words made the other two academies who were neutrally watching the fire from the other side faintly be led astray.
Yes, before Dumbledore took charge of Hogwarts, although Slytherin and the other three colleges were not in harmony, they were not incompatible. Even the savior’s grandmother was an out-and-out pureblood. What about Laitlin.Some Ravenclaws who are proficient in noble genealogy also began to ponder secretly.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the approval in Harry's eyes, and at the undisguised surprise and deep thought on Hermione's face. Without giving Dumbledore a chance to speak, Drake raised his head and gave the final blow: "If It is said that Slytherin was excluded because some people who graduated from Slytherin committed unforgivable crimes, so please allow me to ask impolitely, after the truth of Sirius' injustice was finally revealed, the one who betrayed his best friend and devoted himself to evil, and Isn't it a Gryffindor who murdered an entire street of innocent lives just to get away?!"
boom--
The whole hall erupted like a huge firework because of this sentence.
Although the news of Sirius' reversal of the case has been widely reported before, due to the influence of Dumbledore's intervention, Peter's identity was vaguely positioned as a Death Eater, and has not been publicly reported in detail.
So except for some well-informed people, most of the little animals knew for the first time that this sinister, cunning and vicious Death Eater turned out to be a Gryffindor traitor.
At this moment, the three views of many small animals who firmly believe that Gryffindor is the banner of justice are cracked to varying degrees.
On the professor's seat, Regulus silently watched Drake's performance, saying that his master's education methods are really talented.Professor Sprout and Professor Flitwick appeased Professor McGonagall with the same concerns because of their long-term friendship as colleagues.
And Severus, who had been watching since receiving the news, looked at the extremely stupid blue face of Sirius who had been poked in the sore spot, and showed his great joy with a rare smile without hesitation.
Dumbledore has experienced a lot of pain and ups and downs in his past life. He also tried to change this old world with passion. However, fate finally turned him into another person. After abandoning many things coldly, he He succeeded, and was hailed as the greatest white wizard. He was respected and worshipped, and he used his unparalleled influence to guide a large number of people to follow the path he believed to be correct.Although he suffered a painful sacrifice, he once again successfully ushered in peace for the magic world, even though there was a torrent hidden under the appearance of peace.
But now, at this moment, when facing this sharp-tongued young man, he suddenly felt his own aging.In a daze, the boy who was confronting him in front of him overlapped with the boy with blond hair that was as dazzling as the sun.
However, Dumbledore was Dumbledore after all, even if he lost his composure, it was only for a moment, and almost no one noticed his inner shake - except for some two monsters in human skin.
The old man's expression was very sincere, "Yes, little Mr. Malfoy, I understand your love for Hogwarts and your loyalty to Slytherin House very well. I love Hogwarts as much as you do. Every Hogg The professors at Woz love this school and care for every student just like me. This is our duty and the oath we have sworn to the great founder. The four colleges of Hogwarts are one Overall, this will never change. I will seriously investigate your comments, and if this is true, I will once again sincerely apologize to you and all the children of Slytherin House. As for little Wes Mr.'s words are inappropriate. I think it should be his indiscriminate words when he was angry with his classmates. I will seriously ask the whole story. Of course, although Mr. Wesley's indiscriminate words are justifiable, He still needs to take responsibility for this, and for this, Gryffindor will be deducted [-] points. In addition, regarding Mr. Moody's attack on Mr. Malfoy, I will discuss with all the deans and professors. I will give Mr. Malfoy a prudent explanation.
Well, it will be class time soon, please get ready and go to your respective classrooms. "
Gryffindor's gemstones had bottomed out, and one hundred points were deducted at the beginning of school. This was definitely a painful blow.
The twins hugged each other and covered their mouths, determined not to let their younger brother make the situation where Principal Dumbledore finally calmed down worse.
However, their little sister Ginny, who was also in Gryffindor, gave the youngest brother a hard look.
Thanks to him, his days in Gryffindor have been plagued by gossip.
Reluctantly, the twins squeezed the more stimulated and struggling younger brother tightly between them.
Fortunately, the names were not published in the newspaper, otherwise their mother would definitely go crazy, by the way, I must tell Ginny not to write to her family about this matter, otherwise it would be terrible.
The twins looked at each other with tears in their hearts.
For this result, Drake sneered.
Dumbledore is really old. Did he think that this is still the era when he would shake Hogwarts when he stomped his feet?With such a perfunctory treatment, did he think they would still swallow their anger?
If it wasn't for the old guy to top the tank at some point...
There was a hint of cruelty in Drake's seriousness.
Dumbledore can use the headmaster's authority to suppress Slytherin's dissatisfaction, but the dissatisfaction of the parents being instigated is very annoying to him.
Fudge, who was already on the verge of making a move, was afraid that nothing serious would happen, so he seized this opportunity to try to expand his power into Hogwarts.
It's just that when he first had this idea, he was euphemistically but firmly stopped by Malfoy, who is not what he used to be.
Fudge is an expert at judging the situation. Today, Malfoy has gradually changed from a soft persimmon to a frozen persimmon, he will not easily get into trouble.Fearing the power behind Malfoy, Fudge could only curse secretly to dismiss the idea.
It must be said that the prestige established by Dumbledore over the years will not be destroyed so easily. It may be shaken for a while, but under his assurance, most of the parents are still calmed down to see the aftermath.
And the school became lively again as the arrival time of other schools in the Triwizard Tournament approached.
In the eyes of outsiders, the accusation against Dumbledore was brushed aside by his indiscriminate words caused by the struggle between the students. It seems that for Dumbledore, the crisis has passed.
Few people have noticed that Moody, one of the focal points of the conflict, has not appeared for a long time. Even if they notice, they just think that Moody is under control.
however……
"First a werewolf, now a crazy Death Eater, Dumbledore, has your brain been marinated with honey!" Professor Snape had completely lost trust in Dumbledore.
"Severus, you are a master of potions." Dumbledore's attitude towards Severus was always cruel.
"So all this was caused by my lack of caution? Is it because I didn't allow a Death Eater the opportunity to infiltrate Hogwarts and attack an innocent student in my college?" Professor Snape sarcastically Smirking, "I don't think a guy who can pretend to be a Mad-Eye guy who wants to kill all of Slytherin would come up to me on purpose so I can smell that pungent Polyjuice Potion on him. I think You should sincerely thank Professor Black, otherwise, if this guy really kills any kid under your nose, your headmaster may be at the end of his life."
"Ah, you're welcome, I'm just making a reasonable request. After all, no school will allow a person who has been in a state of alcoholism and violence all year round to hang around, just out of responsibility for the safety of the students and want him to Just quit drinking." Regulus, who was sitting on the sidelines, smiled modestly, "It was beyond my expectation to get this kind of result, so I really deserve the thanks from Mr. Principal."
"Enough, gentlemen, there is plenty of time for cynicism, the point is how to deal with this person!" Professor McGonagall, who had been under heavy pressure recently, lost his patience.
The effect of the compound decoction faded, and lying on the ground was a character who shouldn't be here - Barty Crouch Jr.
