Harry Potter Morning Light

"You shouldn't associate witchcraft with misfortune, priest, some people believe that ghosts can bring good luck to people." Severus Snape took out a silver cigarette case in front of the secretary-general." The one who is sick is the Prince-Bishop, in places like Bohemia and Austria, where witch hunts are considered unnecessary and annoying, not every possession is done by a witch."

"Do you believe what he says, child?" the secretary general asked Gianluca.

"I know that there were a lot of royals who were crazy in the 17th century, but I'm not sure if their insanity was all related to witchcraft." Gianluca said, "Some people are crazy just because he is a madman, and the devil, the witch. Art doesn't matter."

"Then do you think mutilating a woman and throwing it from the window of the castle was the act of a madman, or was it possessed by a demon?" The illegitimate son of the Habsburg Emperor Rudolf II, Don Giulio Cesar de Austria, who threw various parts of his mistress's body from Cesky Krumlov Castle, Jesuit priest Both the Franciscan Dervish and the Franciscan Dervish suggested that he be handed over to us, but the Imperial Councilors did not think it was necessary, because his personal actions did not affect the operation of the Empire."

"It's like a car accident." The wizard smiled evilly, showing his yellow teeth.

"That's right, it's like a car accident." The Secretary-General also smiled. "Some car accident scenes are more tragic than that. When the whole world is going crazy, people will feel numb to the madness. At that time, the emperor's relatives were going crazy. A little more sensible is Prince Bishop Ernst of Bavaria. He likes women, hunting, and listening to music. Compared with those nobles who should be locked in a lunatic asylum, he is still a normal person. Can you live as cleanly as a true monk?"

"Crazy medieval." Severus lit the cigarette and took a slow drag.

"It's the same now." The secretary-general took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from the drawer, and asked Gianluca, "Do you want one?"

Gianluca shook his head. "I don't need nicotine."

The secretary-general skillfully lit the cigarette with a lighter.

Two big smoking guns together make this office smoky.

"I heard there's an asylum in Poveglia, what's that about?" Severus asked.

"Group infection." The Secretary-General said.

"How can mental illness be contagious?" Gianluca asked in disbelief.

Both Severus and the secretary laughed.

"You didn't go to boarding school, did you?" Severus asked.

"You haven't been in a monastery or prison, have you?" The secretary-general narrowed his eyes and said, "What's your name?"

"Gianluca Dante."

"That doesn't sound like a real name."

"You don't seem to be telling the truth either, pastor," Gianluca said sharply.

"I see, you believe in science." The Secretary-General said, "Have you heard of the Stanford Prison Experiment?"

"I heard a little bit."

"There is a group of American college students who are about your age. They are physically and mentally healthy and emotionally stable. They are divided into two groups. One group pretends to be prison guards, and the other group pretends to be prisoners. The professor converted the basement of the Department of Psychology building into a prison. $15, the experiment lasted for two weeks. In order to simulate the reality more realistically, the identity of the students who acted as "prisoners" was replaced by numbers. Everyone wore the clothes of prisoners, and put on shackles and handcuffs. He is wearing a police uniform and black sunglasses to increase his sense of authority, you know, just like in American movies." The Secretary-General tilted his head a little frivolously, "When a prisoner enters the prison, follow the formal procedure of the prison Prisoners perform a naked body search, and the party playing the police has all the powers that real prison guards have. Before the experiment, both the police and the prisoners felt that it might be just a boring two weeks. The encounter at the beginning of the experiment was awkward, after all, for the guards and For both prisoners, it takes time to get into the role. This group of student prisoners, who were influenced by the anti-Vietnam War student movement in the United States at the time, began to challenge authority: tear off the number sewn on the clothes, lock themselves in the cell and ignore the guard's orders, and They made fun of the guards. The guards suddenly became overwhelmed, and Zimbardo, who was the warden and the head of the experiment, told the guards to solve the problem by themselves. So the guards took measures to "repress" the prisoners, stripped off their clothes, put Confine prisoners for hours, confiscate pillows and bedding, cancel meals for prisoners, force prisoners to wash toilets with hands, humiliate prisoners by performing push-ups or other activities that do not make sense, deprive prisoners of sleep, pull prisoners out in the middle of the night for headcount and various humiliating activities. They also adopted a psychological differentiation strategy, and the good prisoners who obeyed the management were provided with privileges, better cells and food. These 'normal, mentally healthy' 'good guys' learned Soon, if you've seen any movie about a prison, it's a common tactic used by the guards who guard it. As the experiment progressed, the guards used progressively more disciplinary measures, and by the 36th hour of the experiment, one The prisoners withdrew from the experiment due to various hysterical symptoms such as crying and cursing due to extreme mental stress. The experiment was only carried out in less than two days, and a good person who was 'normal and mentally healthy' had been treated by a group of 'normal' The mentally healthy 'good guys' were tortured to the brink of collapse. Prisoner No. 8612 was the leader who led the prisoners to revolt and challenge the guards' rights on the first day, so they received 'special care' during the guards' counterattack. When a series of 8612 has realized that this is not a simulated experiment, a virtual prison, but a 'real prison'. When 8612 asked Zimbardo face to face, Zimbardo has also fully entered Instead of the role of the warden, what he considers is not the mental state of 8612, but if 8612 quits, more people will quit, and the experiment will not go on. So Zimbardo, like the warden in all prison movies, will They did the same, promised 8612 that the guards would stop torturing him and give him good treatment. At the same time, he proposed a Faustian deal: let 8612 return to the prison to be his eyeliner, and provide him with information in the prison. Agreed, Zimbardo will 'release' 8612 later, do you want to know what the end result is? "

The Secretary-General seemed to ignore Gianluca's thoughts, and said to himself, "They only persisted for 6 days. Later, when the girlfriend of the 'Warden', a normal person, came to visit him, he saw the psychology professor treat the students. She nearly threw up with nausea from everything they did, but she ended up marrying the professor because she believed that the dreaded 'Warden' had disappeared with the experiment."

"Do you think he hasn't disappeared?" Gianluca asked.

"He discovered an effect, which is opposite to the halo effect, called the devil effect. Because he hates a person, he will suppress it as much as possible. This is a one-sided and paranoid expression. You don't like me, or it is mine. World view, no matter what I say, you will suppress me, and your contempt and hatred will spread to all aspects of me; because you hate a person, even St. Mark's Church does not think it is auspicious and cute, even the "warden" Has disappeared from Zimbardo's mind, because the prison experiment has prejudiced against him. People who have no tolerance for him will not truly and fully evaluate him as a person. The devil has entangled him, and it is now treating him. Whisper." The secretary-general was smoking a cigarette, not at all like a devout monk.

"Do you know why Galileo was persecuted?" Severus said in front of the Secretary-General. "There are several chapters in his book that question theology, and he and his friends intend to use mathematical formulas to explain it." In this world, there is a space where there is no interference from gods and demons."

"Do you believe that there is such a space? There are no gods and demons, only a vacuum." The Secretary-General asked Gianluca.

"Of course there is," Gianluca replied.

"Then I'll wait and see." The Secretary-General said, "What if you can't verify what you said?"

"What?" Gianluca asked in surprise.

"This is a trap you set for us. When Einstein used the field theory to study gravitational phenomena, he realized that the concept of empty vacuum is problematic. He once proposed that vacuum is a special state of gravitational field, so Dirac assumed that the entire universe was completely filled with negative energy particles. They surround us, pass through our bodies, and have them everywhere in the vacuum of outer space and the center of the earth, an infinitely dense Dirac of negative energy particles. The sea, it is impossible for human beings to observe with current technology, just like evil spirits..."

"The Sea of ​​Dirac has been confirmed through experiments." Gianluca interrupted the Secretary-General.

"Psychopathy is contagious, too. Prison experiments have proven it. Do you think madness can only be a single, independent event?" The Secretary-General smiled evilly. Mentally healthy people end up going crazy en masse?"

"That's a problem for psychologists," Gianluca said.

"Then what do you think we are doing?" the secretary-general asked, "Ghosts? Liars?"

"Don't fall for his trap," Severus said. "Be careful of the demon effect."

Gianluca opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

The two bad middle-aged people who played with children laughed together.

"You need to charge money to see a psychiatrist, and it's free to go to the church to talk to the pastor. The person who collects money may also be a quack doctor, and the one who is free...is not necessarily a good person." Severus looked at the secretary-general and said meaningfully "You're not like anyone I've ever known."

"What's the difference?" asked the Secretary-General.

"He's more of an abbot than you." Severus sighed. "But he's a wizard."

"May God bless his soul, oh, do you believe in the existence of souls?" the Secretary-General asked Gianluca deliberately mockingly.

Gianluca gritted his teeth angrily.

"Impulse is the devil. Now you want to fight back, but you can't think of what to say. It is the evil spirit that stops you from thinking and makes you want to hurt people with your words or use force. Drive it away and you can gain your body." After regaining the ability to think, you will know how to talk back." The Secretary-General said, "You can't see it, but you can feel it. This is indirect evidence, although it is not measurable like a physical experiment. .”

"The reason why the taboo is taboo is because if you touch it casually, it will cause big trouble. The smaller one is to make the girl's belly bigger, which is definitely a big trouble." Severus said, "There is a Muggle, he Gained a Squib's belly, and she gave birth to a Dark Lord who turned the wizarding world upside down."

"What happened to him in the end?" asked the Secretary-General.

"He was beaten by a kid," Snape said distraughtly.

"It's the boy you mentioned earlier who falsely accused your godson, oh, wizards actually have godsons..." the secretary-general murmured, "I can't believe it."

"There are still hidden wizards in the church." Snape said grimly with a stiff face, "I know a monk who turned into a ghost."

"What's his name?"

"Fat monk."

The secretary did not speak.

"Are you kidding me?"

"You think I'm joking with you?"

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

"What about the bigger taboo?" Gianluca asked.

"Destroy the world," said Snape, earnestly. "Another Dark Lord, who started the war on the pretext of preventing you from destroying the world."

"Grindelwald." The Secretary-General said suddenly, "I've heard of him."

"How do you know?" Snape asked.

"He is quite famous." The Secretary-General said, "Even if we have stopped witch hunting, it does not mean that we are ignorant of the outside world."

"There are some dark wizards who use witchcraft indiscriminately, but not every wizard is a dark wizard." Snape said, "The wizards also hate those who abuse black magic."

"Are you black or white?" the secretary asked.

"I hate chaos," Snape said. "I like order."

"Don't think that we can reconcile by saying that."

"I have no intention of reconciling with you, where is the bishop?"

"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. He didn't go out to hunt witches himself." The Secretary-General smiled sarcastically. "He went to the Vatican. Before the new Pope is elected, I'm afraid you will only have me."
