In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

Jon looked at the bottle of golden gravel in Dumbledore's hand and pondered.

"So at the beginning when we asked the current Voldemort to choose between Crouch and Snape, was it actually a blind cat meeting a dead mouse? He didn't know Snape's true role, he just chose He gave it to us as an object that could be discarded at will. It was only later that he began to realize that something was wrong."

Dumbledore nodded.

"As for what Riddle relied on to obtain eternal life, the secret lies in these gravels. This is what Severus promised to do for me. He fled back to England, used himself to lure Riddle out, and then helped us Get this bottle."

"His request is that you guarantee Professor Potter's safety?"

"He didn't make this request." Dumbledore said calmly, "Because he knows that even if he doesn't say anything about it, I will definitely do it. The reason why he is willing to help us like this is actually because he thinks that now The situation is no longer the same as before. When facing Riddle, we are no longer just a bunch of lost dogs as before, but there is a real possibility of retaking Britain. Snape realized that he no longer had There is a way to gain Riddle's favor, and since the agreement that the Death Eaters will no longer harm Lily cannot be sustained, we will choose to sell Riddle completely, because only if we win, Lily will have real safety."

Jon had already suspected this, but now he only confirmed it from Dumbledore's mouth.

"Then what is his request?"

Dumbledore leaned back in his chair, his smile gone, leaving only a heavy look on his face.

"That's what he got from this trip."

Jon fell silent.

What did Snape gain from this trip?

It's death.

Being able to die in Lily's hands was his last request.

After finishing the conversation with Dumbledore, Jon left the principal's office.

Dumbledore naturally asked Dumbledore to study the bottle of golden gravel, so he didn't have to worry so much.

But now, Jon is really free.

In the period after the Triwizard Tournament, there was a brief period of peace between the Wizards and the British Ministry of Magic.

Both sides occupy France and England respectively, the two largest magical societies in Europe.

Similarly, the situation across Europe has undergone tacit changes. Before the game, many magical governments were actually leaning towards Voldemort's side.

After all, his strength has been tested for a long time, and the blood theory has really touched the hearts of the old worms in this continent, making these rulers intentionally move closer to "Mr. Great" even though they have not said it explicitly. .

This is still after Grindelwald has integrated the entire Nordic region in advance. If he is still locked up in that tower, before the Triwizard Tournament, Dumbledore's situation will only be more difficult, and even worse. Cutting off 80% of the logistical support also left us with no way out.

After the Triwizard Tournament ended, especially when Voldemort reluctantly agreed to Dumbledore's various unequal treaties that night, the Ministry of Magic, which was still leaning towards the blood theory, gradually began to see the situation clearly. stand up.

They did not immediately show favor to the Witch Leveling Line, because it was obvious that Dumbledore posed no threat to other magical regimes. They were now the maintainers of the existing order, and Voldemort was the builder of the new order.

It's just that the new order built by Voldemort shows no signs of being advanced at all.

Therefore, when Voldemort has the upper hand, they need to move closer to Voldemort, because only in this way can these people become vested interests after the bloodline theory is completely popularized.

Now that Dumbledore had the upper hand, they naturally didn't have to say anything. As long as they temporarily cut off contact with the British Ministry of Magic, they would just wait until Dumbledore truly won and join the celebrations.

Therefore, since the end of the Triwizard Tournament, the entire Europe has been under the illusion of peace.

It seems like the war has never happened, and everyone is safe and sound in their respective turfs, but in fact, there are always undercurrents surging in private.

During this period, not only did Snape escape back to England, but he was eventually killed by Lily. Voldemort One, who regained control of his identity, also used this gap to carry out a purge of the entire British Ministry of Magic.

From Cornelius Fudge, who had been the Minister of Magic for eight consecutive years, to ordinary office assistant Percy Weasley, they were all dismissed.

After fifteen years, Voldemort, who had regained control of his body, became extremely moody.

He mistrusted everyone around him to the extreme, and he didn't even bother to pretend. Before what happened to Snape, he had already personally killed two of his subordinates who had the slightest idea about his policy changes.

After what happened to Snape, because the Death Eaters were not doing things well, he personally executed Nott, who was mainly responsible for this matter.

Nowadays, almost everyone in the British Ministry of Magic is in danger. They would rather not do anything than make even the slightest mistake, for fear of dying in the hands of their master for no reason.

As time goes by, Voldemort seems to be becoming less and less willing to show his face. In the two months just after the Triwizard Tournament, he frequently showed his cruel methods and authority to his subordinates, but in Sri Lanka After the incident with Nap, he rarely appeared in public.

In the back, not even the Death Eaters could see him in person. It was Barty Crouch Jr., who had always been trusted by him, both before and now, who was helping him control British magic remotely. operations of the department.

Of course, Dumbledore and the others also got some information about this matter.

At the core meeting within the Order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore said in front of everyone that Voldemort was currently too busy to take care of himself.

Voldemort, who now takes the initiative in his body, does not know the secret of his previous self's strong vitality. The reason why Voldemort is unwilling to see his subordinates is most likely because he has no way to continue to maintain his original self. Young face.

In fact, Voldemort didn't care about his appearance. What he really cared about was the strange feeling that his subordinates would unconsciously feel when they saw that he was getting older.

Voldemort One is crazy, not stupid. Naturally, he could feel that by this time, the British purebloods had developed some less-than-loyal attitudes towards him.

He is now purely relying on his absolute strength to inflict fear on them. Once this is gone, there will be chaos within the British Ministry of Magic without Dumbledore needing to call in.

Not only Voldemort could see this, but Dumbledore and the others in France could certainly see this as well.

So from the beginning, Wu Pingxian had no intention of maintaining the current peace for long.

Dumbledore made it clear that before the end of this year, they must take the initiative to start a war, a counterattack into Britain.

Outsiders don't understand why he is in such a hurry, but only those who know the inside story know that the reason why he is in such a hurry is because no one can guarantee whether Voldemort will continue to make Horcruxes in order to maintain his desire for immortality.

This is very likely to happen.

After seeing Voldemort II take back all the Horcruxes and become extremely wise and powerful, the current Voldemort I will definitely still be a little wary of Horcruxes.

After all, it was okay when I didn't understand it at the beginning. Now that I know how much the split soul will be affected by human consciousness, no one can continue without any psychological burden.

Even the half-crazy Voldemort is the same, but if the situation in Britain continues to deteriorate, no one can guarantee that, no, he will definitely do this act of drinking doves to quench his thirst, re-split his soul, and maintain immortality. status and stabilize the situation.

And if such a situation occurs, then Voldemort, who has the support for resurrection, will undoubtedly protect the newly made Horcruxes more thoroughly. Even if Dumbledore can defeat him, he will be like an invincible little strongman. , like a sticky plaster, dragging it down in the UK.

Then the situation will become what it was like in the British wizarding world in the 1970s. This is obviously something Dumbledore and the others don't want to see, because compared with 20 years ago, there is not only the madman Voldemort, but also an unknown person today. Voldemort II, who is taking root and dormant somewhere, is quietly recovering his power.

Not only will this not make the situation better, it will also turn this war into a protracted war, which is undoubtedly a situation that no one can accept.

Therefore, this war must start before Voldemort starts to recreate the Horcruxes, and it must be done once and for all to prevent future troubles.

After talking about this matter, of course no one in the Order of the Phoenix or Wu Pingxian objected.

After knowing that the current peace would not last long, the entire French magic world was secretly preparing. Just as Iniesta promised Dumbledore, Dumbledore helped them regain France, and they would also help them. The Order of the Phoenix counterattacks back to England.

This is the core of unity that Wu Pingxian maintains to this day.

But the subsequent war certainly doesn't matter that much to the students of Hogwarts.

Their situation now is much better than during their previous exile. Not only do they have a stable teaching place, they no longer need to live such a homeless life.

And they are naturally looking forward to the day when they can return to the UK, because only when that day comes can they be reunited with their families, leaving this group of older students who have almost forgotten what their parents look like. , returned to his family.

Summer vacation began not long after Jon returned to school.

Only at this time can he be as leisurely as an ordinary student.

In the school, the relationship between the students on the carriage and him has not changed much. Jon has never put on airs because of how much credit he has had, but it is those pure bloods brought back from the castle. As soon as the students saw him, they would lower their heads and walk around, as if they wanted to avoid some plague.

These students are still alive and living normally in Hogwarts. Of course, they are all those who have been screened and have indeed not committed many evil things.

Even if there are some with bad character among them, at most they are like Draco, who usually speaks harshly to the mixed-race students, but rarely resorts to extreme measures. After all, the mixed-race students also know how to be tolerant.

Even if they stayed in Hogwarts, they would still have to undergo some transformational work. At Jon's suggestion, a moral education class was added to these people every day.

Preaching is useless in most cases, but if it is integrated with the environment and supplemented with some other educational methods, it may be of some use.

While other students in Hogwarts Castle were avoiding Jon, Draco, who was still working in the school after the summer vacation started, actually found Jon privately one afternoon.

The eldest son of the Malfoy family was no longer as arrogant as before, and he was no longer wearing exquisite robes, but just an ordinary school uniform like other ordinary students.

When he found Jon, Jon was chatting with Cedric about transfiguration.

"Ger, Mr. Green, can I talk to you alone?"

Draco used the honorific, which was obviously a word that had never come out of his mouth before.

After seeing this, Cedric greeted Jon tactfully, made an excuse, and turned around to leave.

At this time, Jon also turned his head and looked into Draco's eyes that were subconsciously dodging.

"Say, we are the only ones here now."

"You, have you gone to England to have contact with my father?" Taking a deep breath, Draco asked this question.

When Lucius was making the deal with Jon about ensuring Draco's safety, he was also there, so of course he knew the contents of the deal.

Jon didn't deny it.

"Your father also asked me about your situation here." Jon raised his eyebrows and said, "He was very lucky that you were not sent to the gallows, and he was even more grateful that he did not take you there with him. A crooked road."

As if Jon's words aroused a very bad memory of that day, Draco's face became obviously pale, but he still insisted on gritting his teeth and asked Jon.

"Do I still have a chance? A chance to save my parents?"

Jon wasn't much surprised by his question. He just looked at Draco calmly.

"This is not about whether you have the opportunity, but whether your parents are willing to seize such an opportunity. But judging from my previous contact with your father, he doesn't seem to care much about this matter. "
