Hogwarts in the shadows

Harry recounted in detail the memories he had witnessed in Voldemort's mind.

Voldemort captured Sirius Black and tortured him with the Cruciatus Curse.

When Harry first saw this scene.

Although he didn't understand why Voldemort tortured his own people, he felt very happy in his heart.

This kind of pleasure even relieved his nervousness about the exam.

However, in recent days.

Harry discovers a new memory that reveals a shocking "truth".

It turns out that Black did not betray Harry's parents.

The person who actually tipped off Voldemort was Peter Pettigrew.

Blake was just a cover, a secret-keeper in name only, to conceal Peter's existence.

Two years ago, Black showed up at Hogwarts.

Because he wanted to kill Peter to avenge Harry's parents.

And Ron's rat Ben was transformed from Peter.

When Harry first saw this memory, he was very confused.

Everything he had been seeing in Voldemort's mind was real.

So his first reaction was that Blake might really have been wronged.

He blamed the wrong person.

Harry dug out the information Hermione had collected for him.

After careful analysis, we did find many doubts.

He looked up the information that Hermione had helped him find, and after a careful analysis he found that there were indeed many doubts.

Draco naturally saw Harry's conflicted look and found out about it after asking.

So he proposed the most direct method to verify this.

Have Harry secretly bring out Scabbers (Peter's transformed rat) and feed it the Restoration Potion.

In the end, nothing happened.

This led to Harry's previous judgment that Voldemort discovered his existence and weaved this false memory.

The purpose is to lure him into the trap.

Hephes was speechless about this pair of "Crouching Dragon and Phoenix".

It seems that Voldemort has indeed discovered Harry's existence.

But that memory was not false. It could only be said that Voldemort let Harry see it on purpose.

"Harry, the truth of the matter will come out once we find Voldemort and Black."

Hephis thought for a moment and continued.

"Now that Voldemort has discovered you, there is no need for us to hide.

Increase your efforts, find his location, and deliver him to his door."

Harry nodded vigorously. He was quite confident in Hephis's strength.

Now even if he were to face Voldemort head-on, he would not be afraid at all.

over the next few days.

Voldemort also noticed the change in Harry.

He found that Harry was frantically invading his mind, trying to find his hiding place.

A cruel smile appeared on Voldemort's pale face.

But he still endured it, now was not the time.

The enemies must be dealt with one by one.

He needs to wait patiently for the opportunity.

With the coming of holidays.

Heffernan and Hermione are about to bid farewell to their Hogwarts campus life.

Hermione's eyes lingered on the dark castle.

Every moment I spent here comes to mind.

Hephis held Hermione's hand and took her on a thorough tour of Hogwarts once again.

They said goodbye to each professor in a proper manner.

Snape didn't react. They would still meet often in the future anyway.

He has already purchased a piece of land in Godric's Hollow.

He planned to live there with Fulla in the future.

Professor McGonagall hugged Hermione tenderly, patting her on the back gently.

Professor Flitwick said to them with a smile on his face.

When they come back as adults, he will treat them to drinks.

Hagrid was wiping his tears silently.

During those five years, Hephis had given him so much help.

Sprout, Sinistra, Madam Hooch, Madam Pince, Madam Pomfrey,

These professors who are usually serious or gentle.

At this moment, everyone gathered together to see them off.

Even Trelawney came out of her tower and gave them her blessings mysteriously.

Ginless Shacklebolt still couldn't escape the fate of becoming consumable material in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

During the student examination, he was injured in the waist and head by a venomous leopard that broke in.

He is still lying in St. Mungo's.

It's magical anyway.

Karasen in the Black Lake also rarely surfaced.

It waved its huge octopus tentacles reluctantly, bidding them farewell.

Dumbledore left Hogwarts after talking to Hephesus.

No one knows where he is now.

Maybe, there is someone who knows.

Hephis held Hermione's hand and together they waved goodbye to the professors standing at the door.

Then they left the castle where they had studied and lived for five years.

Hephis accompanied Hermione back to her home.

Mr. and Mrs. Granger were already waiting at home.

The couple already knew they would graduate early this year.

Mrs. Granger prepared a large table of sumptuous dishes to celebrate for them.

As expected, Mr. Granger was drunk again.

Although he didn't take Hephis out to spend money like before.

But at the dinner table, he had already started to treat Hephes as a brother.

Hefeth was extremely embarrassed again, but this future father-in-law was really someone he could get along with.

Finally Mrs. Granger performed her usual "special trick".

With a sullen face, she grabbed Mr. Granger's ear and led him upstairs.

"Hermione, spend the next few days with your parents and put the Shadow matter aside for now."

Hephis said softly.

Hermione nodded slightly, she knew what Hephis was thinking.

Although seeing the photos of wizards being arrested every day made her very anxious.

But she also knew that now was not the right time.

And the Shadow’s organizational structure has been clearly divided.

She also had much less to do personally.

In the Shadow Organization, Hephis, as the absolute leader and master, possesses absolute authority and the highest decision-making power.

Although the Shadow Elders have no actual authority, they can make suggestions directly to Hephis.

There are only two people at present, Gellert and old Foley.

As the Shadow Chief Steward, Hermione has power second only to Hephis and is responsible for managing various departments.

The Shadow Intelligence Department, led by Percy, is responsible for collecting and analyzing intelligence to provide support for decision-making.

The Department of Magical Research and Development is headed by Rice and Snape, and focuses on the development of new magical items and potions.

The Logistics and Resources Department, which Lucius is in charge of, ensures the organization's magical resources and members' living supplies.

The combat sector is divided into multiple units:

Vanassa leads the Dark Fang, a group of Muggle-turned-wizard warriors.

The Dark Heart, which is directly under Hermione, serves as a guard team.

Percy is in charge of the Dark Spear, a team of elite wizards.

In addition, there are other teams whose current leaders are acting in temporary positions.

They will be officially appointed only after they have made military achievements.
