Hogwarts Slytherin

Chapter 143 You almost destroyed him

Principal's office.

"Finally, I want to say something about Mr. Lupin. When we invited him to Hogwarts, we already informed your professor about his situation. He is innocent in what happened tonight. We have made a decision The decision will not affect Mr. Lupine's studies at Hogwarts, do you agree?"

Reggie also agreed with this.

In his opinion, the one who was most hurt in this matter was not Carlo but Lupine.

No matter what Sirius' purpose was in deceiving Carlo to go to the Whomping Willow, Carlo acted proactively. She brought herself into danger with her own purpose. If something happened, she should bear part of the responsibility.

The reason why Reggie chose to speak for him tonight was, firstly, because Dumbledore was too partial, and secondly, he was also a Slytherin.

At the very least, this incident could be a prank between classmates that crossed the line.

To put it more seriously, it sent out a signal.

A sign that you could do whatever you wanted to the Slytherin students without suffering the consequences.

There have always been rumors that Slytherin is rich in dark wizards, and it is easy to leave a bad impression on others, which he has experienced since he entered school.

As the biggest villain in the British wizarding world and his Death Eaters become more and more powerful today, the discrimination against Slytherin becomes more and more obvious. Of course, it is undeniable that many Death Eaters did study at Hogg before. Watts Slytherin House.

At the moment when they are being marginalized by three houses, not every student has the ability to think independently. Even in Slytherin, there are some students who do not intend to join the Death Eater group. These slanders and even the occasional sneak attacks have a negative impact on them. That's not fair.

Doesn’t anyone in other colleges know about it?

Wizards are just lazy, not stupid.

But ostracizing Slytherin has become a trend, and they don't want to cause trouble for themselves given the general trend.

This also caused students who had not originally planned to join the Death Eaters to begin to waver, because they not only had to bear pressure from the other three houses, but also from within Slytherin House.

Death Eaters are also divided into core Death Eaters - those with the Dark Mark.

As well as the middle and lower levels, the bottom level is composed of werewolves, vampires and other semi-human beings.

The same is true within Slytherin House.

Among the Death Eater Reserves, those whose families already have the Dark Mark are the first echelon, and those who can join the KOW society are the second echelon.

And those students who remain neutral are occasionally used as experimental subjects for their curses.

Why not try it on students from other colleges?

Then Dumbledore would know.

The most important thing in Slytherin is smart people.

Even if some people aren't smart at first, that's okay.

After experiencing long-term bullying and discrimination, you will develop the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. When harm is unavoidable, you will choose the lesser of the two harms.

Therefore, the bullied people in Slytherin did not dare to shout in front of the professors.

Because they know that if they do that, what awaits them will be worse and more cruel consequences.

This is the legendary fight between gods and mortals.

The war between other houses and Slytherin House is not so much a battle between the white wizard and the black wizard, but rather that they use the Slytherin students as an outlet to vent their anger.

Whenever the Daily Prophet appears, or a professor leads a student away with a solemn expression, their anger towards Slytherin will increase by one point.

So he had to stand up tonight and not let Dumbledore deal with the perfunctory punishment before.

This was also the signal he sent to the greatest white wizard of this century.

Even a vague threat.

If such a fatal little joke would only bear the consequence of deducting [-] college points, then he wouldn't mind making more of this kind of joke!

The only ones who disagreed with this outcome were the Carlo brothers and sisters.

But their opinions clearly don't matter.

In the end, the two professors stayed to discuss the problem and do the finishing work, while a group of young wizards left in a grand manner.

******

After walking down the spiral staircase, Reggie deliberately slowed down. He wanted to go to the Room of Requirement.

Fortunately, the Carlo brothers and sisters ran away quickly, perhaps because they were afraid that James and the others would retaliate against them after leaving the principal's office.

Corridor on the eighth floor.

James stopped Reggie, "Reggie, why are you helping Carlo?"

Yes, he still couldn't figure it out. Aren't they friends?

"Ignore him, James, he is not our friend. He pretended to be too good and deceived me. Mr. Duke, you are really a complete Slytherin!" Sirius looked at him expressionlessly. His eyes were like looking at a stranger.

Reggie sighed lightly.

He suddenly felt worthless.

Not for himself, but for Lupine.

Lupine is a very gentle and polite person. Even Lily, who hates the Marauders very much, is the only exception for Lupine. Except for Lupine, she won't even call James, Sirius and Peter by their Christian names. .

Just like everyone feels that James and Sirius are like twin brothers, everyone also feels that Lupine and the Marauders are really not the same people.

Facts aside.

It certainly seems so.

It’s just that people cannot be defined. Only you know whether it is suitable or not.

Although the other three Marauders have various shortcomings, such as James's ignorance and arrogance, Sirius's arrogant young man's temper, and Peter's timidity.

But they also have their own advantages.

At least when he learned that the roommate he lived with day and night was a werewolf, even the most timid Peter slowly accepted him after experiencing the initial fear.

They even began to practice Animagus in order to accompany their good brothers through the full moon night.

Since they won't stay away from him because of his identity, he won't stay away from his friends because of their minor flaws in their character, even if it sometimes makes him very uncomfortable to see them bullying others.

Because he has been a werewolf since he was a child, he especially understands the feeling of being bullied.

Reggie looked at Sirius and James in front of him.

Maybe now, they always miss the point.

"I'm not helping Carlo, I'm helping Remus."

Reggie emphasized again: "Sirius, while you are complacent about your stupid cleverness, have you ever thought about how Lupine would feel after being used by you?"

He smiled: "I'm looking forward to it. When Lupine wakes up tomorrow, he will know that he has hurt his classmates, and even almost killed them, and it was all because of you. What will he think about himself? How will he think about his relationship with you? "

"No...I didn't, I didn't want to take advantage of Moony Face." Sirius panicked, and he shook his head, unable to use Reggie to distract himself from his regret.

There was a dull pain coming from the wound on his back. Maybe tonight was not a good time to go to the Room of Requirement. It looked like he would have to spend the night in the hospital wing.

"You almost ruined him - ruined Moony, Sirius. You know better than I what kind of man he is."

Walking alone in the dark.

Regis could already imagine Madam Pomfrey's nagging later, and he considered whether to get himself some earplugs to listen to.

******

The third round of the inter-school wizard duel competition.

The teams that Reggie and Anthony played were extremely lucky to have a bye...

On such a highly anticipated day.

An impassioned day.

They were over as soon as they started.

"Congratulations to the third-year team from Hogwarts for getting a bye and entering the finals directly." Maya Lawrence announced with a smile.

Some of the audience booed, while others cheered and applauded from the bottom of their hearts.

good luck.

It is also part of the strength!

Even a large portion!

Maya Lawrence looked a little haggard in the stands. Although her outfit still looked meticulous and exquisite, one's eyes could not be concealed.

If you want to know how well someone is doing, just look at her eyes.

It is filled with the ups and downs of her life.

"Maya Lawrence's career as Head of the Legal Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic should be over soon."

Taking into account the trends in newspapers these days, Rui Ji made a decision.

So will Barty Crouch be next?

After all, his current position is very delicate.

He does not belong to either the Order of the Phoenix or the Death Eaters, and he is very merciless in his words and actions. Recommending someone like him to the position is purely a second option - when the Order of the Phoenix or the Death Eaters cannot let their own people take this position. Location.

At least Barty Crouch isn't taking sides.

……

March [-].

The sky was as gloomy as ever, and Reggie's order of newspapers included the Walpurgis Journal, which reported on the latest major event.

The newly appointed Director of the Department of Legal Enforcement launched a campaign against Death Eaters - but their conspiracy was completely shattered by the powerful Dark Lord.

The headline at the top of the page is eye-catching - "In the face of absolute strength, any slander and slander will be crushed."

In this competition for the position of Director of the Department of Legal Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore personally ended up wrestling. He was very powerful in the Wizengamot, and its members were not just British purebloods.

But the presence of the Dark Lord, who is at the height of his power, is also very strong.

In the end, the third party was cheaper - Barty Crouch.

This wizard, who had always been impartial, greatly disappointed those who paid attention to him after he came to power.

He has always been civilized with iron-blooded methods in the Ministry of Magic, but after taking power, he seemed to have become a qualified director.

mediocre.

Whether it is the problems caused by the Order of the Phoenix or the chaos caused by the Death Eaters, the way he responds is very thought-provoking.

We usually call this method of processing mud.

Who knows, today!

Barty Crouch actually secretly organized a campaign against Death Eaters!

What surprised Reggie was that he was able to escape unscathed!

Although it was not stated clearly in the newspaper, since it was a purge and it was a long-planned purge, the targets would definitely not be as few as one or two people, nor would it be as simple as a few low-level Death Eaters.

The newspaper also mentioned that "their conspiracy was crushed by the powerful Dark Lord!"

This reveals another piece of information——

Voldemort took matters into his own hands.

Being able to let Voldemort take action himself, and also use the word "clean up", Reggie could easily deduce that Barty Crouch probably took action while the core Death Eaters were gathering.

But where did he get the news?

There are traitors among the Death Eaters.

Who could that be?Core Death Eaters can join by more than just taking an oath or even kneeling down to lick Voldemort's robes.

In fact, even if it meant kissing the hem of Voldemort's robe, only core Death Eaters could do so.

Except for Snape later...

There is also a senior spy among the current core Death Eaters.

The Ministry of Magic is indeed not a bunch of rubbish.

What surprised Reggie was that although Barty Crouch and others failed in the end, they were able to survive!

There must have been casualties, but that was why he was truly surprised.

The Ministry of Magic actually dared to attack Voldemort.

You must know that none of them have heard of Dumbledore.

But since they dared to choose to take action at the meeting of the core Death Eaters, they obviously believed that they had a good chance of winning. At least there must be a wizard in their team who could almost rival Dumbledore.

"It's just that there is such a person in the magic world?" Reggie frowned. As wonderful as it felt to have everything under control, it was so annoying to feel like everything was out of control.

He picked up the pumpkin juice on hand and drank it all in one gulp, and inadvertently glanced at Regulus Black...and the pale-faced Barty Crouch Jr. beside him.

Regulus also pursed his lips tightly.

The person sitting next to them was holding the newspaper placed in front of Reggie's table.

Of course.

As the Dark Lord's top student fans, they naturally don't want to miss any news about the organization.

only……

Barty Crouch Sr. had tricked his son, and Barty Crouch Jr. would also trick his father in the future.

"The Dark Lord has pushed magic to unprecedented heights through continuous experiments. Any plan to destroy us will be discovered in advance, and anyone who wants to resist us will be known! The great Dark Lord will never Perish, with his immortal body, he will lead us step by step to regain the glory of pure blood——"

Reggie looked at these words and thought of the short figure from the Pig's Head Bar.

So make a fool of yourself.

If they knew that the so-called immortality of their Lord Dark Lord was a split Horcrux...

Reggie watched it with great interest. He was worried that there were too few information channels about Death Eaters.

Especially now that the Daily Prophet is almost silenced.

The Walpurgis Journal was indeed of great help to him.

Poor little Rael, he finally found a good friend, and now he has to give it up because of his "Black"?

What a good baby.

What he was curious about now was how Barty Crouch Jr. later met Voldemort and gained his deep trust.

This can be seen from the fact that Voldemort chose to find him when he was extremely weak.

Barty Crouch Jr. believed that he had never received the love of his biological father.

As a later Death Eater, he was extremely, insanely, and fanatically loyal to Lord Voldemort.It is hinted many times in the original work that he has a tendency to regard Voldemort as his true father, and Voldemort also secretly informed GMB of his real name "Tom Riddle", his mixed-race identity and the experience of killing his father. Di.

This is really incredible!
