The wizard at Hogwarts is unscientific

As the news of Grindelwald's escape spread, the auditorium became lively.

It is now the second half of 1994, and fifty years have passed since Grindelwald's defeat.

Because it took so long, and the Ministry of Magic deliberately concealed it, many new generation wizards did not know about Grindelwald's experience.

Fortunately, the newspaper introduced it in great detail.

Beside the Slytherin table, a group of young wizards led by Malfoy were gathered together and whispering.

"Draco, has your father sent any news?" someone asked.

Malfoy craned his neck to look in Andy's direction, and when he found that Andy was not looking at him, he silently withdrew his gaze, shook his head and said, "Not yet. But my father has a lot of connections in Europe, so I should be able to get the news soon."

"He is about the same age as Dumbledore, right?"

Someone said worriedly: "Draco, I'm a little worried..."

Malfoy glanced at the man and said, "No one is forcing you. You can quit at any time."

Seeing this, the man's face changed slightly, his lips trembled, and then he took a step back and said no more.

They haven't been having a good time lately.

Today's Slytherin can be roughly divided into three factions.

Not all Slytherins believe in the pure-blood theory. Their minds are relatively open-minded. Although they have ambitions, they believe more in personal ability rather than so-called bloodline.

When the pure-blood theory falls into disadvantage, they will decisively turn to the other side.

Among those who believed in the pure-blood theory, there was a split between those who were loyal to Voldemort and those who betrayed Voldemort.

Now that a large number of Death Eaters have been arrested, the relationship between the two sides has deteriorated sharply. If it weren't for Gryffindor taking the lead and attracting hatred, Slytherin would have been in civil war long ago.

Unfortunately, Malfoy and his ilk belonged to the group that believed in the pure-blood theory but betrayed Voldemort at the same time.

It can be said that you can't please both sides.

Fortunately, Voldemort is dead, and the strength of their family has been preserved - with Dumbledore as a guarantee, those who join the Death Eaters can naturally be acquitted.

But they were not content with this.

It would be fine if there was no hope, but now hope is right before our eyes.

Andy Collins.

According to the intelligence, Andy played a great role in defeating Voldemort. As long as the news was reported, Andy would gain great reputation in the wizarding world.

With their family's financial resources, they will naturally publicize this matter vigorously.

Next, Andy only needs to work in the Ministry of Magic step by step, and they are confident that they can push Andy to the position of Minister of Magic step by step.

In this way, they can rely on Andy to return to the center of power in the Ministry of Magic, influence the operation of the Ministry of Magic, and gain huge benefits from it.

Grindelwald's escape from prison was considered by them as major good news.

The more chaotic the wizarding world is, the easier it is for them to take advantage of the situation.

Grindelwald's influence is in the European wizarding world, and Andy's influence is in the British wizarding world.

They can hedge their bets.

The former relied on a coup to come to power, while the latter followed formal channels.

The former has a high risk, but also a high return, while the latter has a low risk, but also a low return.

Even better, their base is in the British wizarding world.

Regardless of whether Grindelwald succeeds or not, and regardless of how chaotic the European wizarding world is, they only need to push Andy to the position of Minister of Magic, and they will be invincible.

But Andy hasn't graduated yet.

Because of this, they hope that the European magical world can be more chaotic.

It would be best if Grindelwald succeeded.

Even if you fail, you must never fail too quickly.

It would be even better if the chaos could last for twenty or thirty years!

……

Hogwarts is the epitome of the British wizarding world.

Here you can see the interests and conflicts of all parties.

Gryffindor was outraged.

Hufflepuff's business is none of my business.

Ravenclaw's egoism.

Slytherin has many ambitions.

Listening to the discussions in the auditorium, Andy couldn't help but feel a little bored while gossiping.

This is a magical world that does not pursue magic!

Of course, that's what he said, but there are some things that even Andy can't completely avoid.

Because Andy is still in the group of 'society'.

People in the arena involuntarily.

Andy has a deep understanding of this.

"Andy!"

Harry and Ron came over with anxious looks on their faces, "Do you know anything about Grindelwald?"

Andy looked a little strange.

This famous savior...is he too immersed in the role?

To be honest, Andy didn't want to bother with Harry and Ron anymore since Voldemort's death.

Without the interference of the prophecy, Harry was just a little wizard with a little talent, not of much value.

"I don't really understand." Andy said casually.

Harry choked and then said with a worried look, "I wonder how Professor Dumbledore is doing now."

Andy ate in silence without replying.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Hermione raised her eyebrows and asked, "Harry, what do you want from us?"

"Uh..." Harry was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

After seeing the newspaper, Harry's first reaction was - I should do something.

But what to do?

So Harry habitually came to Andy, hoping that Andy could help him come up with an idea.

"We are just students. We can't even leave Hogwarts." Hermione said again.

"Okay!" Harry said dejectedly.

After sending Harry and Ron away, Andy and Hermione looked at each other helplessly.

At this moment, someone suddenly ran into the auditorium and exclaimed, "Come out and see! The professors have lifted the magic barrier of the castle!"

"what?"

"This is the school's last line of defense!?"

"What about our safety?"

The young wizards were in an uproar and then rushed out of the auditorium.

Andy and Hermione continued to eat.

The two were not surprised by the news.

After the news of Grindelwald's escape was made public, there was no need to conceal the fact that Voldemort was dead, and the magical barrier covering Hogwarts Castle naturally no longer needed to be maintained.

"Hermione, I have to go out this afternoon." Andy said suddenly.

"Ok?"

Hermione was stunned when she heard this, "Where are you going?"

Andy said: "Go see Professor Snape, ask him for some information, and handle some things by the way."

"All right!"

Hermione nodded, "If anyone comes looking for you, I will help you keep it secret."

"Thank you!" Andy smiled.

Hermione turned to look at Andy, "Andy, we don't have to be so polite...what do you think?"

"Well, it's my fault!"

Andy smiled and said, "Then I'll leave this afternoon to you."

"No problem!" Hermione nodded slightly.

Andy had long wanted to meet Snape.

When they met in Gringotts before, Andy had asked Snape to help study Voldemort's arm. I don't know what the progress is now.

However, as long as Hogwarts' defense system is not lifted, Andy cannot go out freely.

Now finally liberated!
