Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 1304: The target is Azkaban

Views:

The tragedy that happened to Nelson ended up being just a few minutes of news broadcast in the Wizard Lookout Station and did not attract much attention.

Similar tragedies have happened too many times since Voldemort took control of the British wizarding world, and everyone has become numb.

Only a small number of peripheral members were happy that the Defense Association rescued Nelson in time. They also hoped that they could get help from the Defense Association when they needed it most, which was why they were willing to join the association.

However, the ones who were most deeply touched by this were the refugee students hiding in the shelter. Nelson's experience had a great impact on them, which was incomparable to the news they had heard from the radio in the past.

That case happened right next to them, making everyone deeply feel the changes in the British wizarding world and the threat posed by the Death Eaters. They had to admit that this place did provide them with shelter.

However, that is precisely why.

Nelson, who brought fear to everyone with his own experience, was ostracized in the shelter, not only because he tore apart people's fantasies, but also because he was from Slytherin.

As everyone knows, Slytherin has a bad relationship with other houses, especially after Voldemort took control of the British wizarding world, the two sides became more and more divided.

Nelson was lucky to receive only ridicule here.

Of course, Nelson's situation stems more from the fact that he is alone.

The number of Muggle wizards in Slytherin College can be counted on one hand. With so few Muggle wizards here, I believe that anyone with a normal mind would not come here, because you simply cannot find friends you know and can talk to here, and your own situation will not be very good. This is one of the reasons why he is unwilling to come here.

To be honest, Slytherin was indeed not very suitable for Muggle-borns, and he had not had a very good time during the few years he attended Hogwarts, even though he did make some friends who did not care about his identity.

Looking at the group of annoying guys in front of him, Nelson never intended to have any conflict with them. That would be irrational. After all, he was alone.

"To be honest, I used to think like you that those damn Death Eaters would not come to our door."

Facing the provocation from the crowd, Nelson's voice was calm, as if he was just telling a story.

"Two dark wizards rushed into my house and used the Avada Kedavra curse to kill my family. They said they were going to take me to the Ministry of Magic to exchange for Galleons. I didn't ask how much I could get, but I was sure it wouldn't be much."

After hearing what Nelson said, there was a dead silence.

"It is said that the information was provided by the Muggle-Born Registration Committee of the Ministry of Magic." Nelson looked at everyone and suddenly showed a strange expression. "Perhaps, the Ministry of Magic got the home address from our dear Headmaster Snape."

"How can you say this so calmly?"

Nelson's reaction was so weird that they couldn't understand why the other party could say such words so calmly.

"Because I killed those two wizards to avenge my family." Nelson added, "I stabbed them to death with a kitchen knife."

These words made all the little wizards feel panic and uneasy, and they all involuntarily moved away from the madman in front of them.

However, Nelson's situation improved after joining Dumbledore's Army. He unexpectedly found that the atmosphere here was much better than outside. At least no one ridiculed him for being from Slytherin.

Nelson is relatively sympathetic to DA.

Although he himself does not support Harry Potter, it does not mean that he is not against Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

"Umbridge probably didn't get the information from Hogwarts. According to the gossip I heard, the student information of Hogwarts was hidden by Professor McGonagall a long time ago. The information recorded in the Ministry of Magic also disappeared a long time ago. It is said that Mr. Anderson predicted it in advance and made the arrangement."

Hannah also knew what had happened recently and told the members of Dumbledore's Army what she knew.

"So, the pink toad must have gotten the news through other means?"

Colin and his brother also asked Mr. Tonks for help, asking him to help send a message to their family to remind their parents to temporarily move to a new residence.

"Someone I know reported it to the Ministry of Magic." Nelson thought of a possibility.

"That shouldn't be the case." Hannah was obviously unwilling to believe that someone would betray her friend for a few Galleons.

"Why not? They'll kill for those few Galleons." Nelson's expression turned sinister, because not many of his "friends" knew where his home was.

"Rather than saying it's for Garlon, I think it's more likely that he was forced to betray others to protect his family." Dean felt that it was not for Garlon. Their friendship was not that cheap.

Everyone was silent because they couldn't guarantee whether they would do that.

"Are you okay? You look terrible."

"I'm fine, I just thought of some bad things." Nelson nodded to Hannah to show that he was fine, and then changed the subject and asked, "What are we practicing today?"

"The Crushing Spell."

"I already know this spell."

"Then you can practice the Patronus Charm. Mr. Anderson said this spell is very important. There are Dementors everywhere outside."

"I'll master it as soon as possible." Nelson went aside. He didn't practice the Patronus Charm because he didn't think he was a good person.

Even after personally killing the two murderers who killed his family, Nelson still could not eliminate the hatred in his heart.

Especially when he knew about the pink toad, he really wanted to kill him, as well as those "good friends" who might betray him.

If someone did that, he would make that person pay.

Under the temptation of Galleon, the dark wizards did not give up the hunt for Muggle wizards, and tragedies similar to what happened to Nelson continued.

But for wizards who have become somewhat numbed by countless tragedies, as long as the tragedy does not happen to themselves, it is just that.

"What are you talking about?"

Albert reached out and pulled Truman up from the ground, then turned around and asked the people who were whispering nearby.

"Lupin said that Harry and the other two did not go to Godric's Hollow. They met Death Eaters there and the two sides had a fight."

Lee Jordan handed the communication pen to Albert.

"Everyone thought Harry would visit his family first after regaining his freedom."

"We can all guess it, and the You-Know-Who can guess it, too." Albert glanced at the information and said, "I think Harry can probably guess it, too. Even if he can't, Hermione will remind him. In that case, he will definitely not fall into the trap. Even if he does, he will probably use the Invisibility Cloak. Without the Dementors, it is not easy to find the three people hiding under the Invisibility Cloak."

After his training, Harry Potter is no longer the silly boy he used to be. Moreover, with the powerful weapon of invisibility cloak, it is not difficult for him to visit a grave quietly.

What's more, they carry a bunch of detectors with them, so even if they really go to Godric's Hollow, they will not be easily ambushed.

A powerful shielding spell could certainly block the detection of a pocket watch, but there were very few people who were truly capable of doing so.

Voldemort certainly wouldn't have wasted too much time ambushing Harry Potter.

When Albert handed the pen to Lee Jordan, a new message appeared on it. It was from Kings. He said that the Ministry of Magic was about to escort a group of Muggle wizards to Azkaban, and hoped that Albert could help predict whether this was a trap.

"This is obviously a trap." Albert did not make a special prediction: "This kind of thing is obvious. Those people are bait."

"Is it a trap?"

His words disappointed everyone who was eager to try.

"If you ask me, if the truth can save people, then just shut down Azkaban and rescue the people. It would be easier then." Albert said calmly.

"Why is it easier to attack Azkaban?"

Everyone was a little stunned and couldn't keep up with Albert's magical train of thought.

"Because no one would think that we would attack Azkaban Prison. As long as we rescue the people before the You-Know-Who arrives, there will be no problem. But if we intercept them halfway like we did last time when we rescued the Weisleys, the other party will definitely be alert. Once something like this happens, we should be able to save them enough."

"Are we really going to attack Azkaban?"

After hearing Albert's words, everyone was eager to try.

Attack Azkaban!

Since the mysterious man can break into the prison, they can do it too.

"Summoning a Patronus here is different from summoning a Patronus when facing a large number of Dementors in Azkaban. With your half-finished Patronus, I dare say that many people will not be able to summon a Patronus when facing a large number of Dementors."

Albert did have a plan to attack Azkaban, but not now. Something like this could only be done once, and others were equally unprepared.

"If you don't believe me, you can go find the Dementors together. Without the Dementors to practice with, your Patronus will always be a half-finished product." He added, "Also, remember to find a remote place with no one around."

Everyone looked at each other, but they also knew that Albert must have a reason for saying that, and most of them had never summoned a patronus when facing Dementors, so they discussed going out together to give it a try.

Well, if we travel together, and there are not enough people, if we really encounter danger, we can't always ask Albert to save the situation.

It was impossible for Albert to arrive in time every time, and besides, there was strength in numbers, as they all knew well.

While everyone was discussing where to find Dementors to practice their Patronus, Harry and the other two, who had been camping in a remote forest for several days, were also discussing going to Godric's Hollow.

That's right, Harry hasn't been to Godric's Hollow yet.

Since Harry guessed that Voldemort might have people ambush him there, he naturally would not rush over directly as soon as he came of age.

How stupid that would be!

Wait a few days, then wait a few more days, until everyone has become impatient and relaxed, then go there. At least you will not be easily ambushed.

Now is the time.
