Chapter 166

In the old and gloomy Black House, McGonagall walked back and forth outside the living room. After a while, the closed door was opened from the living room, and Snape came out.

"How's it going?" McGonagall asked nervously, holding the wand in his right hand.

"I've been given strong sleeping pills. Unless there's an antidote, she won't wake up until tomorrow night. I gave the antidote to Miss Slytherin. There's still something to do over there. Good night."

"It's so late... What happened?" McGonagall asked worriedly, frowning, without missing the meaning of 'there' in Snape's words.Why tonight...

"I heard that a few pure-bloods with low intelligence were playing with Muggles, and it turned out to be a bit confusing. I have to go and see...Hiss!" Before Snape could finish speaking, his arm suddenly twitched. Of course he understood the pain. The most disgusting mark was branded on his arm, and his face turned pale.

"Severus? What's wrong?"

"Impossible..." Snape murmured, with disbelief and resentment in his eyes, but soon calmed down, his dark eyes once again returned to a hollow and lifeless look, "The mark is hurting, I'll go first." No Waiting for what the gasping McGonagall could say, Snape quickly walked out of the old house.

Even though she was worried, Mag couldn't do anything at this time, she frowned and walked into the living room.

The living room was finally cleaned up a few days ago. As soon as I entered, I saw a woman lying on a simple combined plank bed. All limbs were firmly tied by iron chains and fixed on the iron railings at the head and end of the plank bed.

After simply washing her body and changing her clothes, the haggard appearance of this woman has not changed. McGonagall knew this woman, Bellatrix——she was such a talented witch once.

Students with all A's in all subjects are uncommon. In McGonagall's decades of teaching career, he could barely meet two, and they are all in front of him now: the student who won the first place in the school's fifth grade with all A's in OWLs this year Sylvia Slytherin sat on the double sofa and helped Camille rub her arms, with a gentle smile in her eyes; Bellatrix Stry, who not only OWLs but also NEWTs excelled her peers with all honors Strange, it was still Bellatrix Black at that time... lying peacefully on the bed, but her face was no longer the same as McGonagall remembered - at that time, Miss Black was quiet but ostentatious, even if she didn't make a sound Sitting in the corner of the classroom, no one can ignore the innate arrogance and self-confidence that emanates from her.

Maybe it's impossible to ignore even now... This woman is lying quietly on the bed, her thin and fragile appearance looks vulnerable, but as soon as she hears her name and thinks of the crimes she committed... McGonagall tightened her hands wand.

"Actually, compared to my arm, I think my toes are about to break!" came Camille's rare voice complaining about his discomfort, causing Mag to turn his head to look.

"The potion is already soaking your feet. It will be fine in a while." Sylvia smiled and rubbed Camille's arm, not minding a little massage for her girlfriend.

It should be that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. Although Mag feels a little helpless about Sylvia and Camille's appearance of not being nervous, he is more relieved.

Needless to say, Miss Slytherin's academic performance is astonishing, not to mention her ancient magic, even the difficulties of exploring alone can't stop her from moving forward. The professor of science is not surprising either.

However, compared to Miss Slytherin, who returned to her ancestors and came from the heir of the Slytherin family, Camille's growth really broke through McGonagall's vision - she was just an ordinary Muggle, but her extraordinary perseverance and backbone made her He became the first Muggle-turned-wizard in history.The difficulty of Wolfsbane did not make her succumb, and the record of being the first person in history to master the power of Wolfsbane was also taken by Camille.As the temporary guardian, Mag can see how much effort Camille has put in. It is really a road to success step by step in the thorny forest.

To be honest, McGonagall can't accurately judge the extent of the abilities of these two outstanding little witches. It may be okay for Camille to say that, at least from the results of OWLs alone, Camille's abilities are still at the level for the time being. The scope of understanding, but Miss Slytherin is different, McGonagall even secretly guessed that she should be almost as powerful as Dumbledore!

"Bella is already here, what's the next step?" Accepting the temptation of his girlfriend's massage service and snacks, Camille finally stopped mentioning her because he was holding a heavy steel basket with two animals in it. Adult, sore toes from hours of flying.

"I'll try soul hypnosis first." Sylvia said as she picked up the cup of hot chocolate and took a sip.

Upon hearing the word 'soul', Mag frowned, "Magic?"

Sylvia nodded, "It's a kind of soul magic. If it's successful, there's no need for Principal Dumbledore to cast the Imperius Curse. Isn't there a waterfall in Gringotts? When the Imperius Curse passes by, it will Fail, and whoever comes along to retrieve the cup at that point, I don't think anyone wants to fight this lady on the Gringotts Vault train of madness."

"I suggest you wait a bit before starting," McGonagall said.

"What's the matter?" Sirius walked in, his hair was still slightly wet, it looked like he should have gone to take a shower just now.

"Just now Severus said that there seemed to be some commotion in the Quidditch match. Maybe Weasley and the others will be back in a while." McGonagall said a little worried, she did not reveal that Snape's Dark Mark suddenly The painful news, Sirius has always been at odds with Snape, such news should be discussed with Dumbledore before making a decision.

"Riot?! Where's Harry? Is he all right?!"

Before McGonagall could say anything, the door of the old house made a rattling sound, and the footsteps and chaotic discussions of a bunch of wizards walking in suddenly made the old house very lively.

-------------

What a game!Although Hermione didn't understand a bunch of proper nouns that Harry and Ron were yelling at, it didn't prevent her from understanding that tonight's match was an extremely exciting matchup.

Back in the tent, everyone discussed excitedly until late, before Mr. Weasley let them all go to bed, and Hermione and Ginny got into the smaller tent next door.

The leprechauns, the mascots of Ireland, kept running around outside, waving the lanterns in their hands, and the sound of rattling and laughing was very loud, but Hermione and Ginny soon fell asleep...until a female voice shouted to break into their tent.

"Granger! Granger, get up!"

"Huh?" Hermione sat up and frowned and blinked, only then did she see clearly that it was Pansy in front of her.

"What's wrong? Pansy, why are you here?" Hermione asked in surprise.

"It's not very good outside, you better go back quickly!" Pansy spoke quickly, even ignoring the usual etiquette, and directly lifted Hermione's quilt to pull her out.

Hermione and Ginny, who was awakened, hurriedly put on their robes. Without Pansito's words, she could vaguely feel that something was wrong—the voices in the camp had changed, and there were no happy singing voices. He heard the screams and the sound of people running in a panic.

Following Pansy, Hermione and Ginny hurried out of the tent, and by the light of the campfire that was still extinguished, Hermione saw that many people had left their tents and ran towards the woods in a panic, as if they were trying to escape. Something moving towards them over the camp.

"What happened?!" Harry and Ron ran out after Mr. Weasley.

"Ah! You've come out, that's great, I'm going to call you!" Mr. Weasley's anxious face was sweating, and he nodded his thanks to Pansy, who was standing behind Hermione with a serious face.

"Some wizards are causing trouble. You'd better go away." In fact, Pansy didn't need to explain, the weird thing that people were fleeing from was not far away from them.

It was a group of wizards, approaching them slowly with loud jeers, wild laughter, and drunken shouts.Obviously, the Ministry of Magic in the Quidditch final camp had issued an order prohibiting the use of magic in public, but each of these wizards held a wand in their hands, wore strange masks on their faces, and were wrapped in a large black blanket. In the cloak.Above their heads, four struggling figures floated in the air, distorted into various weird shapes, as if the masked wizards on the ground were puppeteers, and the people above them were marionettes, Invisible strings that shoot up into the air from the wand control.

As more and more wizards joined the advancing procession, laughing wantonly and destroying everything, Hermione saw tents lit up everywhere they passed.

At this moment Bill, Charlie, and Percy also came out of the boys' tent.They were fully dressed, sleeves rolled up, wands in hand.

"We want to help maintain order in the Ministry!" Mr. Weasley's roar temporarily overwhelmed the noise, he rolled up his sleeves, drew out his wand, and said to Hermione and the others: "Go into the woods, walk together, Don't disperse. I'll go find you after the matter is resolved! We'll go back later tonight!"

Bill, Charlie, and Percy, who had grown up and could use magic freely, had already rushed towards the oncoming police team, and Mr. Weasley quickly chased after him after giving instructions.Ministry staff rushed from all directions to the scene of the accident.The group below the Roberts family grew closer.

"Go!" Fred grabbed Ginny's hand and dragged her into the woods.Harry, Ron, and George followed.

Hermione ran two steps, looked back, and yelled at Pansy who was still standing still in disbelief: "What's wrong? Go away!"

Pansy didn't move, didn't even look at Hermione, and it took a few seconds before she spoke.

"I can't escape..." Hermione heard Pansy say this, her sharp features appearing a bit dark under the faint firelight in the distance.

"What?! Can't escape... what does that mean?"

"Even if I'm underage and can't use magic, it's a way to stand over." Pansy said, turning his back and facing the chaos ahead.Only then did Hermione notice that Pansy was wearing the same loose black robes as those hateful people.

"Pansy...you!"

"I still support Principal Dumbledore and you...you...if you still want to believe it." Pansy said calmly and took out the mask strap from the cloak, without looking back at Hermione, striding forward Go to the commotion of the crowd.

The streetlights that had previously illuminated the camp and the gymnasium were all extinguished, and the dark woods were full of dark figures stumbling and fleeing.The cries of the younger children, the nervous, anxious shouts and voices echoed in the chilly summer night air in the woods.

Hermione stumbled and was dragged forward by Ron, still echoing Pansy's last words in her head.

Even though her voice was muffled after putting on the mask, Hermione was sure that she heard her last words correctly, "I was born in Slytherin, I am out of the Parkinson family, I have no value, Headmaster Dumbledore You won't be willing to take me in, so I can only find a way to increase my bargaining chips. I'm sorry, goodbye..."

The author's humble opinion 2 - Albus Dumbledore

(The following content is purely the personal views and opinions of the author!)

Hey... In fact, the author does not want to post this humble opinion... Don't you see, before posting, many readers have various opinions on Lao Deng in the author's article.Well, it’s not that there’s anything wrong with everyone’s opinions. After all, the original author is Sister Rowling, and we don’t know what Lao Deng looks like in her head. There are a thousand Hamlets in the book (but the author has never read Hamlet...cough).

In the end, I will sort out the author's understanding and post it, otherwise, when the big ones post Lao Deng's comments, if the author replies...ah...I feel that I will need to reply many times, and the words are limited and I may not be able to explain clearly , but if I don’t reply, I feel like I’m ignoring the readers. The author doesn’t like this kind of saying...

The author's point of view is that Lao Deng is a politician rather than an educator.

Here the author is a bit suspicious... Hey... Why do some friends think that 'politicians' are bad guys? ! ——Nowadays politicians seem to have a derogatory feel, but... the author thinks, don't those who can use "XX family" and "XX teacher" are very powerful and noble professions? !

The politicians that the author thinks can be noble people who are inspired to work hard to establish an education system in a remote area, or they can be real villains who move for their own narrow interests. You can’t just rely on the darkness often seen on the news The conclusion is that 'politician' is a pejorative term.

From the author's point of view, Lao Deng is a very outstanding and excellent politician. His purpose is for the peace of the magic world, which is also the "greater interest" in his heart.

Of course, this must not be the "greater interest" that Lao Deng thought in his heart when he was young. The author thinks that the story about Lao Deng and Greenwald in "Fantastic Beasts" that Sister Rowling has not yet written changed Lao Deng. defined the 'greater good'. (It is said that they were going to rule the world?! Inexplicably, there is a kind of secondary feeling...)

Then there is the matter of Lao Deng's desire for power.

Let's not talk about whether Lao Deng has a desire for power, because in fact, Lao Deng has already gained a high reputation because of defeating Greenwald. Whether the position of Minister of Magic is meaningless to Lao Deng, or if he takes that position , but it will bring him a lot of trouble—politics is about checks and balances. There must be many factions in the Ministry of Magic, arguing with each other. If Lao Deng becomes the Minister of Magic, all factions, as long as they are not Lao Deng They will all unite to find a way to attack Lao Deng. His reputation is too strong. For ordinary politicians (this is really a derogatory politician ==) people like Fudge, seeing Lao Deng as the Minister of Magic, even if Lao Deng He is a good man with strong magic, and he obviously won't make Lao Deng feel better.

Sitting on a throne of power, but every day, you have to worry about people from other factions bringing you a pair of troubles. In terms of resource scheduling, it doesn't mean that the Minister of Magic has the final say alone, and others are behind you. It's also very annoying-rather than sitting on the position of Minister of Magic, being stared at by a bunch of people all day and possibly not getting resources, Lao Deng would rather not take this position.

(Secretly ps: If it was the author, the author would not want this position, the reason: Oh my god, my mother is sitting at school, just a letter, you, the Minister of Magic, will come to the school to see me, hehehe, of course It’s more like a boss when you’re behind the scenes! Oh oh oh oh oh!)

Then the author doesn't think Lao Deng cares about power and status.

As the author said, Lao Deng only cares about whether the magic world is peaceful or not, and power is just one of the means to achieve this goal.In the fifth episode, Lao Deng gave up his position as the headmaster is also very simple-let you guys see what is meant by "the boss's ease of use"!

The author has a strange idea, the feeling of Lao Deng to the author is actually a bit like Professor Snape? !There is always a feeling that he has already reached the realm of sacrificing his life for the magic world. Is this because he did something bad before and now he wants to atone for it?It should be quite obvious that Lao Deng doesn't care about his own life at all-he went to get the ring by himself and half his life was removed...Taking Harry to get the pendant was also drinking the potion by himself, and in the end it was more direct and arranged for himself Death transfers ownership of the wand.

According to this, the author believes that Lao Deng actually wanted Harry to live, he was guilty, Snape was guilty, it didn't matter if they died, but Harry was innocent after all, but Lao Deng took the old V in Harry's scar There is no way for the fragments, so I have to arrange things well and let things happen later... Hey, even so, I still want to complain about the breakthrough in the first episode! !But the author also understands that the first two episodes were written by Sister Rowling in terms of "for children", "child confession", and "fairy tales". Judging by arranging for Harry to learn Occlumency, in fact, Lao Deng should arrange for Harry to study hard... right?

The next thing is about the author, every time he writes that Pan Xi wants to gain the trust of Lao Deng, he will be whipped by the readers, saying that the author blacks Lao Deng!

There are no concubines! !The concubine is innocent! !

The overall tone of Slytherin is to give people a feeling of standing on Lao Fu's side, and there are many former Death Eaters who have not received the sanctions they deserve. Under such circumstances, how can Lao Deng casually let him go? A Slytherin witch joining his side? !Holy crap, why don't you consider the possibility of spying? !

The author only wrote that Pan Xi is currently running away from home!There is no mention of how Pansy's family reacted at all - in fact, Pansy was not expelled! ! (Scratch out the spoilers!)

Even someone like Sirius, who was expelled from the family, can still inherit the old house and family property (there should be property inherited from the Black family, the author does not believe that Sirius' personal property can afford to buy a fire*shielded keywords *!), then Pan Xi is not even expelled, either to go home at any time or a handful of Floo powder? !Under such circumstances, let alone Old Deng, even if Old Deng agrees to Pansy hanging out with them, the other members of the Order of the Phoenix may not agree—don’t you see that Mr. Snape’s life is so miserable (of course, he himself is too poisonous. There is no way ε=(ο`*))))

Pan Xi didn't come up with anything practical. It was impossible for Old Deng to accept her joining the Order of the Phoenix camp. What Pan Xi needed was not just a simple statement, she really needed the protection of the Order of the Phoenix—a teenager My little sister escaped from the protection of her family and lived in a perilous enemy camp... This is too exciting... How can such an excellent member of the "Moe Girls Protection Association" like the author let Miss Panxi wander outside! !

So the author arranged for Pansy the same job as Professor Snape, a spy! (However, there is no better than wandering outside...) Snape's main responsibility is in the upper echelon of Lao Fu, and Pansy can be used as a low-level spy. Besides, Lao Fu is looking for new people, and the original book points to Draco come out.

About Lao Deng's education.

The author thinks that Old Deng's harshness and coldness towards Little Tom may be due to the fact that he was not too long away from Greenwald's incident. Little Tom's distorted character aroused Old Deng's black history, and he was particularly wary of him unconsciously. And little Tom is a very thoughtful person, so the tragedies continued like this.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Little Tom won't turn bad after Old Deng gave warm and loving education at that time.The author, unfortunately, is a negative person who believes that human nature is evil, so the author thinks that little Tom may be born evil, and during the process of growing up, no one cares for him, and no one can shake his heart. It's just going on all the way - not to mention his power is so powerful, when the abilities of the people around him are all scum, people can easily turn bad! (No wonder the author has always been a cute and nice person!)

It is because of this that the author wrote this story and arranged for Miss Searle, who has almost the same background as Lao Fu. Originally, Miss Searle like this is likely to go bad (when my mother becomes an adult, Lao Deng It's just a matter of flying out with a wave, why don't the rest of you kneel to my mother!) But Cam showed up.Perhaps what Little Tom needs is not necessarily the care of Lao Deng, but maybe the friendship of friends, such as Po Yan Fist?Unfortunately, little Tom met nothing.

Hey, but Lao Deng is an adult and a professor, it's really scary to educate a child like this.Think about the little kid in the kindergarten who bullied other children, but the kindergarten teacher smashed the table with a straight face... shivering..

In addition to little Tom's education problems, Lao Deng actually has partiality for the students in the school-this should be the worst thing for the principal.The deans can favor their own colleges (Hey! That Snape over there, although you said that, but you are exaggerating a bit!), but as the highest leader of the whole school, the headmaster must act impartially ——Although the previous principals probably didn't do it.

The author especially doesn't like the extra points at the end of the first episode.It stands to reason that Harry and the others broke into places where they were warned not to enter at the beginning of school, so it's fine if they don't punish them, but they actually give them extra points? !It's not that you can ignore the rules just because you want to do good deeds!Rules are made to protect the majority of people. Lao Deng’s approach is entirely to encourage everyone not to take the rules seriously. This time it is Lao Deng’s own arrangement, which may guide innocent students not to be implicated, but this style encourages everyone , Could it be that everyone can just ignore what Lao Deng said about 'the forbidden forest can't be entered'? (Although many people really ignore this) Every student has been instilled with the idea that they can ignore discipline, so what if something goes wrong in the future? !

It’s okay to add points. After all, Harry and the others have really accomplished a major event, but they do need to be punished for ignoring discipline. As many points as they are added, they will be deducted. Only when rewards and punishments are clearly defined can students be truly educated. This refers to all students. Guys, there are still rules, and you can't mess around.What Lao Deng did was to encourage Harry and the others blindly. Maybe Harry had a low self-esteem when he just entered the magic world, but he can't act like this!

In the latter part, the author thinks it’s okay. After all, Lao Deng is the principal. He always stares at Harry and tells him to study quickly. It seems that something is wrong...Harry really can’t help him, he only learns what he is interested in Forget it, but even if he is interested in Defense Against the Dark Arts, does Harry really have the patience to study it in depth? !Would it be so great to be able to cast a disarming spell? !If it wasn't for the magic that mom loves to make Harry's Disarming Curse directly upgrade to EX·Disarming Curse against Lao Fu, Harry would have died a long time ago...

In Rowling's original novel, the author Jun actually likes Dumbledore the most. (Hey, if this sentence is placed at the beginning, the author will definitely be whipped again... Forget it, even here I guess I can’t escape orz, there is always a feeling of losing my collection, I am afraid )

The character of Dumbledore has an extremely complicated background, and his character and attitude are closely related to the past, and Sister Rowling's original work has not yet been completed (it seems that "Fantastic Beasts" is going to finish Lao Deng's story? Inexplicably, there is a faint pain that I will be slapped in the face by the original book...) This may also be the reason why all readers have so many different opinions on the character Dumbledore.

Kind but cruel, the urchin-like words are full of hidden wisdom, this is the author's impression of the character Dumbledore.

The author has always believed that he does not hate Lao Deng, but only examines what Lao Deng does based on the facts.Dumbledore is great, but that doesn't mean that everything he does is right. Similarly, even if Dumbledore doesn't look good enough in some places, it doesn't mean that this person is not great, let alone, The subjective judgment of 'the right thing', what is right, is a question that no one can answer.

Dumbledore is definitely a crucial character for this series of HP novels, he is full of contradictions, it seems to be a gloomy past and a respected present, a powerful force is locked in a small school, urchin-like words and deeds And the wisdom that almost sees through time and space.He is an ordinary but great character.

(Secretly ps: Why does the author like Lao Deng...Look at Harry, Ron, and Sirius...The author is so angry that he fainted, and it is very dangerous that he has an intelligence to take care of Lao Deng and the new generation Miss Hermione, who is in charge of intelligence, hurry up and hug me before talking!!)
