The Necromancer of Hogwarts

Chapter 62 Public opinion is like a knife, Squibs sit in silence

In today's magical world, the voice of a squib silences countless people.

This is a man in his early thirties. He looks like the most ordinary British man, but his face has a weathered look, his clothes are in tatters, and his hands are covered with calluses. He seems to have suffered a lot.

He came to the Daily Prophet for an interview, and the content of the interview formed a report that moved countless people.

"I'm a squib, born in the magical world but unable to use magic."

"Not even until I was eleven, when I never showed the traits of a magical riot, my parents decided I was a squib and abandoned me."

"I even forgot what day it was. I just remember that from that day on, my sky fell and the magical world closed the door to me forever."

"I wandered alone, enduring the stench of rot and looking for food in Muggle trash heaps."

"If I can find an unfinished bottle of milk among all that filth, or a half-eaten and thrown away pie, it's a lucky day for me because I can get through another day without Died of hunger.”

"Besides rummaging through garbage dumps for food, the most I did was sneak into Muggle yards and steal the pet food they gave to cats and dogs. In order to fill my stomach, I robbed ten rations a day at most. Dog food for multiple dogs, hiding in the alley, eating a full meal, and then thanking God for allowing me to live.”

This man's eyes can make people feel the despair and sadness in the black and white photos in the newspaper.

"The wizarding world doesn't accept me, and I don't have a birth certificate from the Muggle world, so I can't integrate into the Muggle world either."

"What's more, even if I can't use magic, I still remember that I was born in a wizard's family and in the magical world... The magical world is my hometown, and I miss it all the time."

"Perhaps it is this belief that supports me. I was lucky enough to survive and grow up, reclaiming wasteland, living in isolation, and living an isolated life. Wizards do not regard me as my kind, and Muggles are not my kind, so this world Who else can I communicate with?"

"I thought I would die in a corner that no one knew about, but I accidentally saw the Daily Prophet and I felt I had to stand up."

In the "Daily Prophet", as people read, the man's gaze in the photo becomes more determined, making people feel the fire in his heart.

"I want to speak up for Squib."

"We are not monsters, we are not aliens, we are also children of wizards."

"Our greatest desire is to stay in the magical world, in the place where we were born."

The man choked on his words several times.

"No matter where you are, being expelled from your hometown is always the saddest thing. How can you bear to do this?"

"I want to stand up and beg for a chance for the Squibs."

"We can't use magic, but as long as we are given a chance, we will be more diligent than house elves. We can help with plant cultivation, we can process magic materials, we have suffered countless sufferings, and we can endure any harshness. Harsh work..."

"We need jobs, we also want to create value for the magical world, and we also want to be recognized by the magical world."

Xiang Yu and Lucius were reading the newspaper together, each nodding.

"Snape's Potent Polyjuice Potion works so well that no one can see his true face."

"His speech is also good. It can inspire people's sympathy. After all, everyone has the instinct to sympathize with the weak."

Lucius read the end of the article and saw what the man said: "The Ministry of Magic is even willing to take in Dementors, why can't it give Squibs a chance? The Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts provides a place for countless magical animals to survive. Can we leave a piece of soil for the Squibs to survive?"

"Squibs are also the children of wizards after all. Do you think you would rather protect magical animals than Squibs?"

Lucius took a breath of cold air and muttered to himself: "It's amazing. This is putting the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore on the fire."

"Dumbledore always talks about love. If he opposes providing job opportunities to Squibs, he is simply destroying his own ideas."

"The same goes for the Ministry of Magic. They even take in Dementors. If they object to improving the living conditions of Squibs, they will probably arouse public outrage."

He continued to read. At the end, the man clenched his fists and called out to the squibs in the wizarding world through the Daily Prophet.

"Comrades, stand up!"

"For freedom, for dignity, and for walking in the magical world with integrity, we must unite!"

"We have to work! We have to work! Only by working can we create value, and only by creating value can we gain dignity!"

"Let the wizarding world hear our voices!"

……

When this article was published, countless wizards in the wizarding world shed tears over what happened to this squib.

Even a hard-hearted person should be moved by the experience of people and cats and dogs competing for food.

With the exception of a few individuals, the opposition to Squibs entering the magical world suddenly died down.

After all, besides having magic and not very bright minds, wizards are also compassionate, no different from Muggles.

The Squibs are all so miserable. If I make any more discordant noises, what will my relatives and friends think of me?

Hard-hearted, ruthless, without even the most basic sympathy...

If others have such an evaluation of themselves, how can they stand on their own?

What's more, the words at the end of this article also touched the hearts of many people.

Yes, monsters like dementors that should be exterminated have been taken in by the Ministry of Magic, and there are even legal provisions to provide a habitat for dementors.

As a result, the Ministry of Magic did not have a relief bill for the Squibs?

No matter how embarrassing the Squib is, he is still a descendant of a wizard, right?

What does the Ministry of Magic mean? Does it mean that people are less valuable than dementors?

What does Dumbledore mean?

He always talks about love. The Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts shelters so many magical animals. Why hasn't he said a word for Squib yet?

There are many people in the wizarding world who have objections to Dumbledore, and even more people have objections to the Ministry of Magic. Lucius doesn't even need to take action, so the buzzing voices are getting louder and louder. People everywhere are expressing dissatisfaction with the Ministry of Magic and the Ministry of Magic. Dumbledore's accusation.

Many people also joined in.

After all, we are all human beings, and everyone is the same everywhere. When you see someone with a higher status and reputation than yourself being unlucky, you always feel a little comfortable. There will always be someone who jumps out and joins the carnival.

Faced with this fierce public opinion, both the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore were caught off guard.

How did this get to them? Isn't this moral kidnapping?

But faced with this kind of logic, they really had no choice but to know how to deal with it.

The Ministry of Magic is in dire straits, the wizarding world is still rebuilding, and the employment problems of many wizards have not yet been solved. Where are the jobs for Squibs? Where will the money come from to install the dumb cannons?

This is a big trouble, a sinkhole!

Dumbledore was even more helpless.

Although he has a lofty reputation, in the final analysis he is just a school principal and an educationist. He cannot make any decisions.

Who has ever encountered such nonsense in expecting a reputable educator to solve employment problems?

Hogwarts cannot solve the problem of Squibs. Squibs cannot be admitted to Hogwarts. What can Dumbledore do?

What's more, Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix relies on financial support. Even if he wants to help Squib, he has no money.

The turbulent public opinion made Dumbledore feel extremely tired.

These wizards who spoke out were as weak as children in front of Dumbledore.

But their combined voices made Dumbledore, the strongest white wizard, feel powerless, and he did not even dare to defend himself.

Because it’s okay not to speak out, but once you speak out in newspapers, the next direction will be completely out of control.

Lucius looked out the window feverishly.

"This is public opinion!"

"After controlling public opinion, I kidnapped the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore, and put them all in shackles!"

"And the minds of this rabble... are so manipulative!"

Xiang Yu clapped his hands.

"Then let's make the situation more serious and push them to the edge of the cliff."

"Now there are also Squibs starting to make noises one after another, right?"

A strange smile appeared on his lips.

"The Ministry of Magic seems to have no experience in dealing with rallies and demonstrations?"

"Then let's teach them a lesson."

"Let our Squib representatives lead the Squibs who are arriving one after another to hold a sit-in in the square outside the Ministry of Magic while holding signs."

"Reporters from the Daily Prophet and those tabloid newspapers will report this matter all the way. If the Ministry of Magic does not respond directly, these squibs will not leave."
