From Azkaban To Hogwarts

"It's barely safe. Let's take a rest. I'll deal with the traces left by the Apparition..."

Susan pulled out her wand, no trace of panic on her face, and shouted instructions to the dejected crowd.

She was actually a little unsure, but she didn't want to show it in front of others. If she was panicked, the frightened wizards would probably disperse.

'Damn it... the organization has just taken shape, some powerful wizards among the people have just been persuaded, and everything is on the right track, but what is the situation now, and why did the Aurors take action directly? ’

If she hadn't seen any Death Eaters among the people who were chasing her, she would have suspected that she had been exposed...

'What's going on over there in Ilvermorny? Obviously in last week's correspondence, they praised my organizational strength and even asked me to draft a speech for the Ministry of Magic...'

Because she was asked not to reveal her true thoughts, Susan added a lot of personal details to it according to her own ideas, but judging from the feedback from Ilvermorny, they were quite satisfied with the manuscript...

'It can't be that the manuscript arouses suspicion... But it shouldn't be the Aurors and Strikers. As for the Magic Congress, if they have such courage, they will not let the actual situation develop into what it is now...'

In short, she was not sure what was going on in Ilvermorny, but she had no time to worry about it now. She had to take responsibility for the wizards who followed her.

After deftly handling the traceable traces left by her Apparition, she returned to her followers.

"Listen to me," she said resolutely, "things happened too suddenly. We were attacked by Aurors and strikers, and were driven to this area that is still relatively safe without knowing anything about it. On the land.”

"Our first priority is to find out what happened while protecting ourselves, so we can decide what we should do next and how we should do it."

"I hope everyone can take stock of what supplies we still have, how many people we have, and what we need. After solving this most basic problem, we will hold a new meeting to decide how we will proceed next and what we need. How to go."

People need a leader when they are in a panic, especially Susan, who is responsible for leading these wizards on a daily basis. At her request, the wizards who had escaped in a hurry began to recognize each other in a mess, giving the originally deserted crowd some clues. A touch of energy.

Not long after, pieces of intelligence were handed over. Susan looked at the data one by one and felt a headache.

Many families were torn apart because of the sudden incident. Even if she got a piece of secret information, she still didn't bring out the team that was beginning to take shape.

Half of the teams responsible for handling unexpected incidents have lost contact - they are the main force against the purgers, and are usually assigned to assist the attacked areas in resisting the incoming purgers.

The wizard team responsible for promoting ideas and treatment was almost completely wiped out - they were sent out every day to contact non-joiners in various wizard gathering places, and by the way, they treated those injured in the attacks and distributed some emergency supplies. No time to call back.

Fortunately, the wizards responsible for purchasing supplies from Muggle society and coordinating the distribution of supplies have retained more than 80% of them. Although a large amount of supplies were not transferred in time, the channel was not broken after all.

Especially the wizards who are responsible for purchasing supplies from the Muggle society still control a large amount of wealth in the Muggle world and the channels to purchase smuggled supplies. This allows them to have material guarantees whether they hide themselves or make a comeback.

After thinking about it for a long time, Susan finally made a decision.

"For safety reasons, we will disguise ourselves as a circus and integrate into Muggle society - only in this way can we hide ourselves as much as possible. In the future, no matter who is accidentally exposed to magical power, he will immediately Advertise yourself as a practicing magician…”

"The wizard responsible for purchasing has been arranged by me to purchase a series of supplies. I hope that everyone will not try to contact anyone in the next period of time, because once we are exposed now, God knows what will happen next - we have already lost The strength to confront the Purifiers head-on."

"Okay, that's it. Everyone, take a rest. Food and hot water will be delivered later. I will figure out what happened as quickly as possible..."

——

"Aha--"

William covered his mouth with his hands and yawned widely.

After being woken up by an owl in the middle of the night and receiving such distressing news, it took him a long time to close his eyes in bed and sleep until breakfast.

However, the insufficient sleep time he had made up for made him unable to gather enough energy to prepare for today's breakfast.

"What happened, William?"

Adams on the side finished a piece of chicken breast and asked with some curiosity.

"Are you too tired from dealing with the Wolfsbane potion recently? It just so happens that the raw materials for a batch of energy potions are about to be harvested. Is there some top-quality material left for you?"

"Thanks," William raised his head and stretched a little, "But it's not that... I didn't get a good rest last night because there were too many messy things..."

"what happened?"

"There should be a report in the Daily Prophet later. If not, I will elaborate more - I'm sorry, I really want to finish eating quickly and then take a nap..."

He was right - the Daily Prophet reported the story with front-page headlines.

Although many wizards had never heard of Ilvermorny before the Triwizard Tournament, the fact of subverting a country's Magical Congress was too big, not to mention that the new government also clearly attacked the Secrecy Act. .

"Oh My God…"

The students who got the newspaper stared at the news in the newspaper, with their mouths wide open.

"Are you kidding...The principal of Ilvermorny took over as the chairman of the Magic Congress? If this is on our side..."

William cheered up a little and eavesdropped on the students' conversation, but was immediately frightened - the punishment is still your punishment, he didn't even expect such a thing...

"Has the American wizarding world changed?"

"And attacking the secrecy law?"

"Yes, things have changed, and the secrecy law has been attacked..."

William yawned, "Sorry, sorry, we'll discuss it again at noon. I'm really sleepy..."

"Why don't you sleep until noon, William?"

Adam asked curiously before William left.

"This? Because I woke up from hunger..."

William spread his hands and ran directly towards his room.

——

"You heard, there is a problem in the United States."

"Uh-huh…"

In the Auror office, the Auror, who was usually extremely serious in the eyes of the others, was also gossiping in a low voice.

There was nothing I could do, not to mention that the melon this time was too big, and it was also implicated in them.

The thirteen families of Aurors directly led the Aurors and strikers to rebel against the Magical Congress. In one night, the sky changed directly...

The problem is, both sides are called Aurors - the President of the Magical Congress over there has been overthrown, what will the Minister of Magic here think?

In particular, Mr. Rufus Scrimgeour, the current Director of the Auror Office, is young and very powerful, even somewhat like Mr. Crouch.

Previously, everyone was saying that Mr. Crouch might give Minister Fudge a surprise in the next election, but now at a glance, there is actually one more contestant - oh, no, two...

Anyway, they just watch the excitement and are not afraid of big troubles - the national conditions are different. There are no thirteen Auror families in the UK, and the attackers are firmly in the hands of the minister.

If it weren't for disciplinary reasons, they would even want to bet on which one Secretary Fudge would secretly investigate...

"New news! Minister Fudge came to work with a black eye!"

"Mr. Scrimgeour doesn't look good either!"

"Mr. Crouch looks like he hasn't slept all night, and he is not in a good state!"

The excellent intelligence capabilities of the Aurors allowed these first-hand gossips to spread wildly in the Auror office. Although it was surprising that something like that happened on the other side, it was only surprising - across an ocean, could the other party still fly over and invade?

Again, if it weren't for the strict training and discipline of Aurors, the Auror office would be able to open gambling games at this moment.

——

Just because Aurors don't gamble doesn't mean that others don't want to gamble either.

While William was catching up on his sleep, Hogwarts was in chaos.

The coup may have a great impact on the American wizarding community, but it is no more than that for the British wizarding community - what really triggered the discussion among the students was the speech of trusting Bertha, the president of the Magic Congress.

Generations of wizards have different views on the Law of Secrecy, and when this matter is placed in the schools of Hogwarts, the differences are even greater.

There are many opponents, but there are also many supporters.

People from the same school and different schools, seniors and juniors, all became curious about the contents of the newspaper, and then began to argue that it was right, and the mother-in-law said it was right - when it was turned out again, it was still the same as before. It was equally powerful and caused countless wizards to think.

In the afternoon, when William was preparing to teach the fifth grade, a student named Seamus Finnigan suddenly raised his hand. William looked at the Gryffindor in surprise, "Classmate Finnegan, you Any questions?"

"Professor, have you read today's newspaper?"

"Today's newspapers? You mean the Daily Prophet about those attacks on the secrecy laws?"

William smiled, "If that's the case, I know a little bit about it - but are you sure you want to waste your precious time before the OWLs exam listening to something that has nothing to do with your exam results?"

"Of course, Professor!"

Mixed voices rang out. This was the first time William had seen such bold students.

“Okay, a little bit, but there’s an extra paper for the homework—anyone object?”

Neville seemed to want to raise his hand, but in the end he put it away under the eager eyes of the people around him, which made William feel secretly happy, "Then it's settled, let's talk about that speech. , what do you want to know?"

"I!"

Seamus' Gryffindor spirit was especially full today.

"I think what she said is a bit strange, but I don't know what's wrong, Professor!"

"Me too. I think her view is very correct. The confidentiality law is too restrictive!"

"No, no!"

"..."

Seeing that the students were about to start arguing, William had to pull out his wand and let a cold wind blow in from the front window to lower the temperature of the overly busy classroom.

"It seems that everyone has different ideas... It can be seen that you all have the intention to persuade the other party..."

"But I feel a little strange - what do you think your support and opposition can change?"

"What can your support and opposition bring?"

He looked at the students, "Besides, before you rashly decide to support or oppose, have you ever understood what happened and what the process was like?"

"How much do you know about the causes and consequences of what happened in the United States?"

"How well do you know the resume of Ms. Bertha, the current president of MACUSA?"

"Do you know what she went through to get to the position?"

"How many inquiries have you made?"

He tapped on the blackboard, "I remember I have been teaching you for almost a year. When did I teach you that you can judge whether something is correct or not just by showing it out?"

【investigation】

As William tapped the blackboard, the word was revealed.

"The Daily Prophet simply published a speech, and you all made a fuss over it."

"Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind! Think carefully about what happened, take a good look at what they did, and then decide whether you want to support them or even join them!"

“Learn to make your own judgments, and don’t have an overly presumptuous view of a thing or a person just because of someone’s simple comments!”

"Don't believe in words, believe in logic, believe in judgment, and learn to grow on your own!"

"Self-defense not only protects your life safety, but also protects your heart that doesn't know enough about the world but is still curious!"

"You must learn to protect yourself and don't be fooled by words like this or that!"

Seeing that the eyes of several students below were a little dull, William could only shake his head.

"Take our course as an example," he looked around the classroom, "Okay, that's it - I think Harry is the best student in the fifth grade, because he can successfully use the magic he learned to protect himself. I have never failed in a duel in the past year."

The sudden compliment made Harry's ears feel a little hot - he had never expected to receive such a compliment from the professor.

"Uh-no."

On the podium, William suddenly changed his mind, "I think the best student now is Miss Hermione Granger, because she has never been stuck in theoretical knowledge, and she has mastered the most anti-jinx skills and magic styles. , got a ton of points from me, and crushed Harry in most classes."

"Okay, now the question is, which statement do you think is correct?"

"Professor, this is different!"

The students below murmured quietly.

"It's different, but it's not much different - if you think about this clearly, you should know what your support and support at the beginning was about."
