I, Hogwarts Second Week

Chapter 513 If You Want

Seeing Hermione's insistence, Owen stopped talking.

After a while, his hair was quickly taken care of.

Then, Miss Granger spoke again, "By the way, Mr. Prime Minister also hopes to send some young wizards to join the government and become magic advisors."

"Magical advisor?" Harry asked in surprise, "Can wizards still serve as officials in the Muggle government?"

"Isn't Tonks here?" Owen pinched his neck and said comfortably.

"She is not suitable." Hermione said, looking at Harry, "This is not an official, but a civil servant, similar to the assistant minister that Percy served before." Then she rushed to Owen, "Kingsley said, her character is too jumpy. Take it off, Dumbledore also thinks that she is not suitable for this position, and they need someone more stable."

"And -" she hesitated, "Tonks herself is not willing to stay in the UK. She seems to prefer to go to Sweden and join the Federation."

Of course Hermione would not tell that she had bumped into Tonks confessing to Professor Lupin after the war.

When she heard those sincere words, she was stunned.

She and Ginny had guessed early on that Tonks seemed to have someone he liked, but neither she nor Ginny had guessed that the object of Tonks' love was actually Professor Lupin.

"Oh - I know." Owen said softly.

"Huh?" This caught Hermione's attention, and she began to wonder if Owen had known about Tonks for a long time.

"Mr. Prime Minister, there are still some requests." She suppressed the doubts in her heart and continued, "They hope to send some young people, preferably those who have just graduated from school, who have fought head-on with Death Eaters and have enough knowledge about the Muggle world. Those who know something about the history of the country are not those who are pure-blood supporters, those who are of mixed blood, Muggle origin first, gentle, kind, responsible, and finally wizards who have an 'advantage' in appearance."

"."

"What kind of request is this?" Ginny was a little angry, she felt offended. "The last one, what does it mean to have an advantage in appearance? Are they choosing a consultant? Or a prostitute!" the red-haired little witch said bluntly.

"Uh-" Hannah looked at the bold Ginny on the side, and felt a moment of embarrassment in her heart, but that was Ginny, and that was her character, "Also, she had to just graduate from school, and she also had to work with Death Eaters. We have combat experience. Isn’t this too harsh? Although most of us have fought against them, only a few of them have actually faced Death Eaters alone.”

Hearing the sound, everyone else present, including Harry, Ron, Neville, Susan, Justin and other D.A. members, all nodded.

This is indeed the case. The only ones who have actually dueled with Death Eaters are Owen, Hermione, Harry, Ron, and maybe Cho Chang, Cedric, Fleur, and Krum. At least they had experienced the battle at the top of Azkaban Tower.

These demands are inexplicable and contradictory.

To this end, Hermione explained: "In Muggle novels and stories, most wizards are portrayed in very stereotyped ways. We need to break this prejudice. Choosing young, handsome or beautiful wizards is good for publicity. It can make Muggles see wizards for what they really are, not the dark, scary image they have in mind.

Death Eaters have already left a deep impression on most Muggles, and if they want to be transformed quickly, of course they need some other tricks. "

Ron snorted, obviously dissatisfied with the Muggle prejudice: "The Muggle idea is really stupid. Wizards are also human beings, old and young, beautiful and ugly, how could they all look like that wizened old witch? What? This is simply discrimination against us.”

"Besides." Ron suddenly became serious, "These reasons sound very forced, and they are definitely not the ones you came up with Hermione. What are their purposes?"

"Hey -" Owen on the side raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "I have to say, you have become smarter. Ron."

"People say that falling in love will decrease your IQ, but you increase your IQ. This is really rare."

"Hey!" Hermione stretched out her leg in displeasure and kicked Owen's calf.

Don't think she can't hear it - isn't the one who lowered his IQ just talking about her?

"Haha." Owen ignored Hermione and continued, "It seems that the other half's IQ is too high, just like water flowing down, giving some to you."

"You think so." He turned to look at Koyatel.

Facing Owen's aggressive gaze, the girl's expression did not change, "He is not stupid to begin with."

"Yes, yes," Owen responded, "He is not stupid to begin with, but he is too impatient. When he calms down, he will definitely show his intelligence. Well, it's a common reason for girlfriends to defend their boyfriends."

"Okay, this demand, huh - just send all the obedient geniuses and have it written on their faces."

He looked at Hermione, "So, does Dumbledore have anyone chosen?"

"Some." Hermione nodded. Although Owen's words didn't sound very nice, it was true from another perspective, but she preferred the original perspective: "Bill and Percy are both good choices. Maybe. Plus George and Fred, if they're not causing trouble, they're just pretending, it's actually pretty good."

"What are you doing?" Ron quickly interrupted, "Why are you only picking people from our family? And - are you serious? Why are Hermione, George and Fred so 'outstanding in appearance'?"

"I think it's quite interesting and humorous." Hermione glanced at him, "It's much better than some idiot who made no progress for more than a year."

"I" Ron, who was hit seven inches, was immediately deflated and speechless.

After hearing Hermione's answer, Owen felt his eyes light up, as if he had discovered a green lotus in the mud.

Dumbledore's wisdom is indeed online.

Naturally, he saw through the Muggles' scheme and went with the flow.

Perhaps he had expectations, expecting George and Fred to learn the weapons of Muggles and then invent ways to restrain them.

"Choose the Weasley family because your family is more loyal. What about someone else, Justin? It won't take him a few days before he will be beguiled by the clever words of the Muggles, and will be completely led to the Muggles in numbness and self-righteousness. "

"Hey! I'm not that stupid." Justin shouted dissatisfied.

"You're talking, do you believe it yourself?" Owen stared at him lightly. In his captivating emerald green eyes, Geng Gu's sea of ​​death was reflected. Coupled with his expression that was half-smiling but not smiling, it was inexplicably... A kind of strange evil and fear in people.

"There is already someone here who is about to fall. Do you think you are still rational and smart when being beaten by her?"

"I don't think so."

Justin looked up at Hermione, then let out a sigh of relief.

"Owen!" Miss Granger looked at Owen seriously, "What you said is too mean." She frowned. The voice was full of dissatisfaction with Irving's remarks, and it felt like he had undergone some changes after not seeing him for several months.

Very bad change.

"I found that you are very conflicted about your treatment of Muggles. Previously on the Hogwarts Express and Professor Binns' History of Magic class, you said that you hoped that the future world would see a trend of integration between the magical world and the Muggle world. In the world, wizards can occupy leadership positions. But Mr. Harker said to me, you told him personally in Downing Street that wizards do not have the ability to lead a country.

What on earth are you thinking! "

"What do you think?" Owen suddenly stretched out his hand, and his slender fingers with a faint warmth fell on the little witch's hand holding the tea cup. "The wizard is indeed incapable. My dear Granger, you should be very aware of this." It is clear that whether it is Fudge, Barty Crouch, or now Rufus Scrimgeour, to put it bluntly, even my grandfathers Grindelwald and Dumbledore, they are not very The ability to govern an additional country with a population of tens of millions or hundreds of millions.

You should agree with this.

A small British magical world with tens of thousands of people, a group of people who are simple-minded and not very carefree, a rule that has lasted for five or six hundred years, and a governance level that has hardly changed much. Believe me, what Diagon Alley looks like now is pretty much what it looked like five hundred years ago.

Honey. When I talk about the leadership position, there is only one person from beginning to end. And this man is a wizard. "

".You." Hermione's eyes widened, and she suddenly realized who Owen was talking about.

"I - no - that's why you - I am willing to be the person Mr. Harker and the others want, that's why you are so dissatisfied."

"Yes." Owen smiled, with a strange expression on his face.

"No -" the witch said seriously, "leaders should be elected, including the Prime Minister and the Minister of Magic. We need democracy."

Hearing this, Owen leaned back suddenly and integrated his body into the embrace of the sofa.

"Democracy? Oh, democracy." He sneered.

“They don’t need democracy, they don’t even think about it.

Can you vote on the appointment of the Minister of Magic? That was decided by the Wizarding Council and controlled by several wizarding families.

It took the British government three hundred years to completely kick the people out of the power structure. Now they only need to vote once every few years to be satisfied with their self-righteousness and transfer conflicts. Oh - this is simply the most genius and greatest invention. . "

"Democracy? Honey, there is no foundation for democracy in most countries on this planet.

Little things like we should be tolerant of people who disagree with us, or we should be tolerant of people who disagree with our beliefs, or a reporter should be able to go against the fucking president. Do you think that overthrowing a dictator based on fundamentalism and dropping a few bombs can establish a democratic country?

Huh - maybe we all realize that people don't want freedom. They want rules, boundaries, order, and protection. Protect from internal and external threats.

People need a leader who can provide both discipline and support to quell chaos, end wars, and lead them to prosperity, and if you give it to them, they will follow you. "

"."

There was silence in the Room of Requirement.

Everyone looked at Owen, staring at him as if they were meeting him for the first time.

Among them, Hermione is particularly strong.

A series of complex emotions flashed through her eyes, including fear, anger, confusion, confusion, etc.

It was as if she had just met Owen today.

After a long silence, she said, "I suddenly feel that you look like a person."

The little witch looked at him with awe.

"Grindelwald?" Owen replied with a smile on his face.

"Just like him, he is good at confusing people and seizing their souls." Hermione said.

"Thank you for the compliment." The boy disagreed, "I just told the truth."

"Before that - your attitude towards house elves, Dobby, Kreacher, the movies they made, and your agreement with me to protect the rights of elves. You said it yourself that you couldn't stand oppression the most." She said As he spoke, his voice rose higher and higher, and the last sentence was almost shouted.

"Yes, I do hate oppression the most. It's true. I hope that all civilized intelligent beings have equal status and lives. This is also true." Owen said lightly, "The people under your rule , all people must be equal.”

"The people under my rule?" Hermione felt amused, "What do you think I am? A god?"

"If you want." The strange tone sounded flat, like the bleak wind blowing from the wilderness. Invisible but cold.

"What did you say?"

"No - it's nothing." Owen suddenly calmed down and his expression became slightly normal.

"Let's discuss our selection. Compared with the illusory future, the current things are more important, aren't they?"

Not wanting anyone else to react, the boy opened his mouth and said, "Professor Dumbledore is right to select people from the Weasley family. If it is the Ministry of Magic, select a group of people, believe me, within a day, they will be Will fight with Muggles.

The Ministry of Magic really doesn't have any good candidates. Most wizards have a natural discrimination against Muggles. Most of the wizards in the Order of the Phoenix who support Dumbledore have never dealt with Muggles. There were some candidates, such as Tonks' mother and Sirius's uncle. They all chose to marry wizards of Muggle origin. They all had more or less contact with Muggles and had some understanding of them.

Or choose Professor Charity Bubbaji, the Muggle Studies professor at Hogwarts. He spent his life promoting the elimination of racial discrimination and calling for equality between wizards and Muggles. This is a very good candidate, she has a certain understanding of the Muggle world, unlike Ron's father, who doesn't even know what rubber ducks are for. And she was also on Dumbledore's side. "

"But - Professor Caredi Bubbaji is just an ordinary witch. His attainments in magic are not high, and his real level is not even as good as Quirrell. Quirrell is an outstanding graduate of Ravenclaw, and he was the one who served before Professor of Muggle Studies.

In 1991, he took over as Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, and then he suddenly wanted to go to the Albanian forest to find some dark creatures as teaching materials, and then he met Voldemort.

Although Quirrell's tragedy is classic, it is undeniable that he had the courage to search for dark creatures alone, which shows that he has a clear understanding of his own strength.

Ordinary dangers don't bother him at all.

And Professor Charity Bubbaji - it would be difficult for her to survive or escape from the battle with the Death Eaters. "
