Hogwarts Rising Again

447 Jailbreak
"What did you hear?"

"Lucas escaped from prison." Augustine said slowly.

Principal McGonagall, Professor Francis and others all changed their faces slightly, and Maureen and Sweet not far away were also shocked!
The "Lucas" in Augustine's mouth refers to Floyd, which is Sweet's father.

Just less than a month ago, Nicole had just thrown him into the Azkaban prison, but he escaped from Azkaban after only being imprisoned for less than a month?
No wonder Nicole was so angry with Professor Francis when he came here today. It turned out that the criminal he caught had escaped from prison, so his promotion and salary increase would be in vain. It would be strange not to be angry.

Principal McGonagall was also quite surprised and said: "Prison break? You mean Floyt escaped from Azkaban?"

"It's Lucas, Principal McGonagall." Augustine corrected in a very blunt tone, "You heard me right, he escaped from Azkaban."

"When did it happen?" Principal McGonagall asked.

"Just the morning before yesterday."

"When was the stone arch lost?"

"We're not sure yet, it's not every day someone checks the arch - but it was lost after he escaped, no doubt about it," Augustine said with absolute certainty.

Professor Francis' eyes flickered for a moment, and he said: "The guards in Azkaban are so guarded by magic, you have shackles to restrain magic, annoying dementors, and countless magic - I heard Now Azkaban can even limit the ability of Animagus - you actually let a man without a wand escape from prison?"

"You don't need to remind us about the guarding of Azkaban, Francis." Nicole said angrily, "He must have used black magic—you should know his identity, you'd better know speak out!"

"I didn't help him escape, Nicole." Professor Francis said impatiently, "Since he has escaped, what you should do now is to catch him, not trouble Hogwarts— —If I were you, I'd investigate the cells of Azkaban."

Nicole stared fixedly at Professor Francis, but Professor Francis just folded his hands on his chest indifferently, turning a blind eye to Nicole's gaze.

"Anyway, Lucas escaped from prison, just as the stone arch of the Ministry of Magic was stolen again - we are very sure that the person who stole the stone arch must be Lucas, so as long as we find the whereabouts of the stone arch , and he can be apprehended.”

Augustine turned his head and looked at the simple but heavy stone arch. He had made up his mind to bring this stone arch back to the Ministry of Magic for study.

"The professors at Hogwarts are not under our control, but Hogwarts still needs to assist the Ministry of Magic in handling the case. I think you must also be willing to assist us in catching fugitives. Is this the reason?"

Augustine stretched out his fingers and fiddled with the buttons on his chest, and said in a playful tone: "Or, the people of Hogwarts don't want us to find Lucas?"

Principal McGonagall's thin nose twitched slightly. She wanted to refuse at first, but Augustine's words had already reached this point. If she refused again, Augustine would definitely give them a big hat.

Although Hogwarts is not under the control of the Ministry of Magic, there is no right to refuse this kind of thing. After all, the rules are set by the politicians of the Ministry of Magic, but they can also modify them at any time.

Principal McGonagall was silent for a moment, and said sternly: "Remember my words, Augustine, I don't care who stole the stone arch of your Ministry of Magic, but this stone arch is the property of Hogwarts, and I allow you to study it." A stone arch, though I hope it will be returned intact after the incident."

"Of course." Augustine laughed, "As long as Lucas is executed, this stone arch will naturally be returned."

"Execution?" Professor Francis frowned.

"We have issued instructions to all the staff of the Ministry of Magic. Lucas broke into the Ministry of Magic again and again, not only massacred eleven Muggles, but also killed two Aurors, and even escaped from Azkaban. Any staff member of the Ministry of Magic who sees Lucas at the first time, if he resists arrest, must kill him. This is for the stability of the wizarding world, Francis, you should understand."

Augustine said these words very calmly. In his opinion, killing a heinous prisoner is not a tangled matter.

Professor Francis snorted coldly and did not respond.But judging from his expression, he seemed to hate Augustine's decision, but he couldn't interfere with the affairs of the Ministry of Magic.

When Sweet, who was beside Molin, heard the word "execution", his body shook violently.

"How dare they—I've read some laws that say Aurors have no right to kill criminals unless it's absolutely necessary—and, besides, this matter has nothing to do with him, is the Ministry of Magic a bunch of right and wrong people? "Sweet gritted his teeth and said.

"I didn't expect Augustine to make such a decision." Mo Lin said heavily.

He didn't know how Sweet's father escaped from the heavily guarded Azkaban—maybe by relying on the blood curse, after all, that ability is so powerful that even Payingade is coveted, but the current situation makes Everything gets worse.

The Ministry of Magic has done everything they can to catch Lucas. They will definitely send more people to closely monitor the mother and son Nim. Once Floyt goes back to see them, it will be very difficult.

"I need to warn him." Sweet touched the pendant around his neck.

"Are you crazy? To warn him?" Mo Lin shook his head, "This is not a wise choice, and it may even drag him down."

Sweet clenched his fists.

Maureen set his sights on the stone arch again. He is also very anxious now, because he has relied on the stone arch to determine how many Black Rubik's Cubes Payngade got, and from what Hufflepuff said, As you can see, even the stone arches at Hogwarts are far from simple.

If the Ministry of Magic took Stone Arch away, it would most likely make matters worse.

But Principal McGonagall has been forced to agree, and it is even more impossible for Mo Lin to stop it.

The Quidditch pitch was still boiling, and the Gryffindor students were embracing and cheering, celebrating this year's Quidditch champion, but all of this had nothing to do with Maureen. All he could think about now was Payngard.

Payngade collected the Black Rubik's Cube with the intention of using the Black Rubik's Cube to open the Stone Arch. Now that he has obtained ten keys and successfully stole the Stone Arch from the Ministry of Magic, he will definitely look for the remaining two keys next.

Mo Lin didn't know what would happen after the stone arch was opened, but he already felt that the key in Arnock's hand was a little unsafe.
