The man behind Hogwarts

After taking care of the silver-haired Paul's matter, the two went to the courtyard to drink tea.

Hagrid happily greeted Crone and invited Crone to play wrestling with him, but Crone declined with a wry smile.

If you play wrestling with them, your life will be long.

"Professor, you said a few days ago that you were going to St. Mungo's Hospital of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Was the journey going well?" William asked as he sipped his tea.

Crohn sighed first, and a trace of sadness appeared on his serious and cold face. William rarely saw this expression on his face. Crohn only heard Crohn sigh with emotion: "Frank is getting older and older. He doesn't remember me and doesn't remember me." Remember anyone.”

"I also met Frank's mother in the hospital taking her grandson to see him."

"She was such a strong lady, she was able to take good care of Frank's son even when his son and daughter-in-law were crazy."

William chuckled, "Have you met Frank's son?"

"Well, it's the first time we've met in three years." Crohn said slightly happily: "Frank's son is called Neville, Neville Longbottom. He is a cute and filial little wizard. He has received the admission notice to Hogwarts. Book."

When it came to Neville, Crohn's eyes were distant.

I used to visit Neville every year, but in the past three years I have been busy with revenge, so I didn't go to see him in order not to implicate other people.

I saw Neville again in the hospital a few days ago.

Crohn felt that his children and grandchildren have become sensible.

Neville was somewhat similar to his father. Every time Crohn saw Neville, he would think of his good friend, a friend he could trust with life and death.

"Mrs. Longbottom wanted me to be Neville's godfather, and I agreed. I happen to be teaching Muggle Studies at Hogwarts, so I can take care of him a little. Neville is in good health, but his personality is a bit weak and his memory is poor. .”

Poor memory?

When William thought about it, Neville's memory was not just bad, it was simply very bad.

If nothing else goes wrong, after Neville enters school, her grandmother will give him a memory ball to help Neville remember things, which also caused a little dispute.

Crohn said, suddenly curious: "William, do you know of any way to treat the sequelae of the Forgetting Curse?"

"What do you mean?" William looked at him.

Crohn nodded, "The reason why Neville has poor memory is that Mrs. Longbottom used the Forgetting Curse on him when he was a child. Although it successfully made Neville forget the memory of his parents' torture, it also damaged his memory.

I knew one way that might help him was to confront his pain.

His parents were tortured by the Death Eaters using the Cruciatus Curse. As long as he sees the torture of the Cruciatus Curse again, it should be able to awaken his forgotten memories and cure his poor memory. However, the side effects are also obvious and will make him Remembering the painful past, Mrs. Longbottom rejected my proposal for this reason. "

After listening to Crohn's words,

William was surprised.

In the previous life, I only knew that Neville's memory was poor. It turned out that it was not a congenital cause, but the sequelae of the Forgetting Curse.

The spell of the Forgetting Curse is "forget everything", which can make people forget certain things. Generally speaking, the sequelae are very weak. The reason why Neville's sequelae are so serious may be related to the fact that he was too young when he was cursed.

"Professor, Occlumency might work."

"Occlumency?" Crohn pondered for a moment and nodded: "Indeed, mature Occlumency can control memory, thoughts, and emotions. It can completely overcome the weakness of poor memory."

"But Occlumency can only be taught to Neville after his grades get better. This magic is too difficult."

Both of them knew Occlumency, so they knew how difficult this spell was.

To put it bluntly, only one percent of the entire Hogwarts students are qualified to learn this magic.

It is precisely because the difficulty is too high,

Hogwarts doesn't teach this magic.

Crohn is worried...

He had checked Neville's magical talent, and it seemed that it was just average. It would be extremely difficult for ordinary people to learn Occlumency.

'Not necessarily. Frank and his wife are very talented in magic. It makes no sense that Neville is so poor. Could it be that the sequelae will affect his magic talent...'

Thinking of this, Crohn secretly made a decision.

Give Neville three years. If he is still not capable of learning Occlumency, he must advise Mrs. Longbottom again.

"William, have you learned Occlumency?" Crohn asked.

"I just learned it not long ago. Compared with Occlumency, I found Legilimency to be more difficult."

Crohn said in a clear voice: "It is true. Human memory is not a book. Legilimency is not about reading memories, nor is it about listening to memories. It is about analysis and search. It is like finding gems in the desert. It is naturally very difficult."

William has been learning Legilimency for some time;

But haven’t learned it yet.

On the contrary, Occlumency was quickly learned, perhaps because it had something to do with the Yuanwang Hotel, which helped him invisibly.

But the Occlumency Technique was of no use to him.

Looking into the hotel from a distance is the best way to seal off memories. Occlumency is like a useless technique and should be used to enrich the magic library.

From this point of view,

Harry Potter is far behind.

Even though he was personally taught by Snape, the occlumency master, he couldn't teach him.

"Professor, since you have become Neville's godfather, you should not come to the store during this period and accompany him to purchase some school supplies. His family situation must not be very good now."

Crohn nodded in agreement, "Okay, if there is news from the Ministry of Magic, I will send it back as soon as possible."

"Ah."

After seeing Crohn off, William was preparing to study divination when an owl sent another letter.

"Today is a coincidence, things happened all at once."

Opening the envelope, the sender was Werewolf White.

"White?" William remembered that he had asked White to take a few powerful werewolves on a mission a month ago, and now the news came.

White said in the letter:

Quirrell entered the Albanian forest half a month ago, followed by White and other figures. Just three days ago, Quirrell was attacked by a strange magical creature and fell into a coma.

White and others rushed to save him and drove away the magical creature.

Afterwards, it was found that Quirrell seemed to have suffered from the Imperius Curse. Although it was very slight, White firmly believed that it was the trace of the Imperius Curse.

Waiting for Quirrell to wake up, White and others hid themselves again and waited until Quirrell woke up.

"William, Quirrell is currently in a weak state. He is preparing to return. Do we need to do anything?"

Holding the letter in his hand, William was silent for a moment.

A few minutes later, the reply was "No, just follow him back." It was handed over to the owl for delivery.

William got up and walked to the courtyard, looking up at the white clouds in the sky.

"Unexpectedly, Quirrell met Voldemort after all. Fortunately, he escaped with my help this time."

"But Quirrell's character is indeed a bit weak."

"The current Voldemort can only possess small animals. At most, he can cast some mind-affecting magic, which can knock him unconscious. It seems that it is not unreasonable to be seriously injured by the red giant hornet some time ago."

In order to repay Quirrell's previous help, he decided to save him once before the holiday.

First, Quirrell was persuaded not to go too far during the summer vacation, and it was best not to leave Hogwarts, so as to prevent him from encountering Voldemort in the first place.

Quirrell agreed at that time.

William didn't say much, but he didn't completely believe his words and ordered Dasu to supervise secretly.

Sure enough, half a month ago, Dasu sent a message saying that Chilo had left.

At that time, William couldn't help but uttered a curse word. If this Quirrell wasn't a good person now, William really wouldn't want to help him anymore.

As the saying goes, medicine can cure diseases, and Buddha can save those who are destined.

Quirrell is related to Voldemort!

William thought about it again and decided to help him again.

The reason is not only to repay Quirrell's previous help, but also because the wizarding world currently believes that Voldemort is dead, and there is a trend of peace and prosperity.

This environment is conducive to William's current development.

First, use this period of peace to accumulate strength, and then release Voldemort, get rid of him with lightning speed, and help yourself reach the top of the magical world.

In William's eyes, Voldemort is a plump and delicious experienced baby.

Whoever kills him will gain unrivaled prestige and rule the magical world, just like Harry and others in the previous life.

A war in which Voldemort returned brought success to many people.

William didn't want to be entangled with Voldemort for seven years. According to his habit, it was most comfortable to crush the enemy to death with one palm.

This was probably the plan, and William followed the plan first.

In view of this,

We should continue to save people.

It was inconvenient for William to travel far, so he asked White to take people to protect him secretly.

After half a month, it finally helped him get through this disaster.

"Judging from the letter, Quirrell may have been under the Imperius Curse, but he must not have been possessed by Voldemort, otherwise White would not have noticed it."

"It's time for Quirrell to learn a lesson this time."

"He will teach Defense Against the Dark Arts class next year. I wonder if he will be persecuted by an unknown curse..."

Think about it,

William suddenly felt that Quirrell was so pitiful.

Both humans and ghosts are showing off, only Quirrell is being beaten.

Could it be that he was the reincarnation of the greedy wolf in the Immortal Rebellion? What a miserable wizard.

……

As time comes to August, Diagon Alley becomes more and more lively, and even Knockturn Alley has more customers.

Accompanied by their parents, the little wizards went to Diagon Alley to purchase school supplies.

Many little wizards who come to Diagon Alley for the first time are amazed.

Walking through the magic shops, all kinds of strange magic items suddenly broke the worldview of many Muggle-born people.

Inside the Leaky Cauldron,

Professor McGonagall was wearing dark green wizard robes and a black pointed hat, followed by two, one, and three people.

"This is the Leaky Cauldron. From here you can enter Diagon Alley. There are many magic shops where you can buy everything on the admission list."

He led the three of them into the bar, opened the stone wall and entered Diagon Alley without speaking to Tom.

"There is magic at the door of the bar. Only people with magic in their bodies can see it." Mag introduced the three of them.

At this point, the adult man asked: "Then why can my wife and I see it?"

"Because I use magic to help you see it."

After entering Diagon Alley, McGonagall stood still and said to the three of them: "The long street inside is Diagon Alley. Mr. Granger, you can take Hermione to purchase supplies. First, go to Gringotts to exchange wizard coins. Then just follow the supplies list to purchase.

I still have a few little wizards to guide today, so I need to leave first. "

Mr. Granger nodded in agreement and thanked McGonagall again and again.

"Thank you for your guidance, Professor McGonagall!" Hermione, the only child among the four, also expressed her gratitude.

Mag smiled, "What a sensible little wizard."

"By the way, you can only go shopping in Diagon Alley. It's very safe here. Don't enter Knockturn Alley." As he said that, Mag pointed to the entrance of Knockturn Alley.

The entrance to Knockturn Alley is at the corner. At first glance, the scene inside is obviously different from Diagon Alley.

Mr. Granger asked curiously: "What is Knockturn Alley? Are there dangers in it?"

"Knockturn Alley is similar to Diagon Alley. There are many wizards running shops and doing business." Mag explained: "But the wizards in Knockturn Alley don't follow the rules very well. If you enter rashly, you may be in danger. In short, everything is safe." You must not go in."

The Grangers were startled.

Although Professor McGonagall said it tactfully, the three smart people understood the meaning of her words.

Doesn’t it mean that the wizards in Knockturn Alley are evil? Are they filled with old witches riding broomsticks from fairy tales?

Hermione winced.

Ever since McGonagall went to her house to demonstrate magic, Hermione had read many books about wizards.

But there are no real wizard books in the ordinary world. They are all fairy tales, fantasy novels and the like. The wizards in them are all sinister, cunning, terrifying and vicious. I heard that some wizards use children to refine elixirs...

Hermione was so scared that she couldn't sleep after seeing this. Fortunately, the Professor McGonagall she saw was very kind.

Although Professor McGonagall is a bit serious, she does her duty and Hermione has a crush on her.

Who would have thought that the sudden appearance of Knockturn Alley would evoke her terrifying impression of wizards...

Even the Grangers were a little worried, not so much about entering Knockturn Alley, but about whether their daughter would be in danger in the future.

Seeing that the three of them were worried, Mag frowned inadvertently.

She feels bad,

Probably self-defeating.

It was originally just a reminder to them not to enter Knockturn Alley, which was a good intention, but it ignored the stereotypes of wizards in Muggle families and instead made them more afraid.

Mag felt in a dilemma and wanted to accompany the three of them in their shopping, but there were still several young wizards waiting for his guidance.

I looked up and accidentally saw the entrance to Diagon Alley, and I had a plan in mind.

"Mr. Granger, you don't have to worry too much. Although there are unruly wizards in Knockturn Alley, most of them are kind-hearted and good people. Speaking of which, there is a person in Knockturn Alley. Hermione, you should be very interested. …”

Hermione looked at Professor McGonagall curiously.

Professor McGonagall smiled. After spending a short time together, she probably figured out Hermione's character.

Curious and seeking knowledge, with a certain sense of adventure, smart and hard-working, if she has good magic talent, she should be able to achieve something in the future.

"There is a store in Knockturn Alley called Yuanyue Store..."
