MTL - In This Hogwarts Without a Savior-Chapter 444 442. Prince
Chapter 444 442. Prince
About how this public trial will be conducted, in fact, before Jon left England with Lily, he discussed it clearly with Dumbledore.
Except for the execution in the middle and how to judge, the most certain consensus between him and Dumbledore is that this public trial must not be left to everyone as a kind of blood confrontation, pure blood is judged by hemp, as long as it is pure blood, it is guilty , as long as it is oppressed, it is a good impression.
This is obviously wrong, because there is no shortage of pure-blood wizards in both the Order of the Phoenix and Wu Pingxian. Although they are only a minority, their emotions must still be considered.
It's just a pure trial of pure blood, or if the goal of the public trial is only on bloodlines, then maybe the pure bloods in the Order of the Phoenix will not say anything when watching this public trial, but as long as there is a little bit of news like Something like "All blood is a villain" must have chilled them.
And through this public trial, Dumbledore and the others have to confirm one thing for all the students and even the wizards in the outside world.
What they are going to overthrow and defeat is the theory of blood, not pure-blood wizards!
This is very important, because once the goal is wrong, even if they win the final victory later, there is a high possibility of another confrontation.
At that time, the pure blood will become the bottom of the society, and the hemp seed will become the top. History will repeat itself in an upside-down way, until one day it may be reversed again.
And **** like Henderson are obviously accomplices in the blood theory, and in Hogwarts castle, the **** living in the basement actually don't have much contact with pure-blood students in most cases. These high-ranking gentlemen feel ashamed to breathe the same air as them. Many of their oppression and management are achieved by training the second devil, that is, people like Henderson.
So there are some things to judge the pure blood, it is better to pull out a person like Henderson to shock the hearts of the mumps.
Slughorn, who was sitting in the auditorium, could naturally think about these things clearly, and after all the charges were confirmed, Henderson naturally did not escape the end of death.
In a wave of rage, he became the second victim of this gallows.
Slughorn looked at Henderson's swaying body, and he didn't know why he suddenly realized that his previous thoughts were all wrong.
He thought that if Voldemort was really defeated in the future, the wizarding world would return to the state it was before he began to rule more than ten years ago, but now he feels that if this situation continues, the wizarding world will Take it in a whole new direction.
A new direction that no one has seen before, and no one can predict!
Of course, this public trial will not end after the trial of only two people. There are still many people queuing up behind them and being dragged onto the high platform one by one.
These people include pure blood, mixed blood and hemp, most of them committed heinous crimes, and the gallows erected on the high platform also played the most effective role, hanging 8 former castles s student!
The oldest of these people, like Henderson and Flint, are already 18 years old, while the youngest is only 15 years old.
That was the young lady of a pure-blooded family, and she was also one of the worst group among the 8 people who were hanged, and she already had the lives of two hemp slaves!
This was not instigated by her parents. It was just because they were jealous and hated that the two hemp girls were more beautiful than her, so they burned their faces with a spell and killed their family members in front of them. The reason He wanted to experiment with how to drive a normal person crazy.
Although 17 years old is considered an adult among wizards, there has never been a "So-and-so Protection Law" in the magic world, let alone this is during wartime, and this kind of behavior has extremely touched the moral bottom line of human beings.
Those who were brought to the high platform afterward were not anti-human like the first eight.
Although the nature is equally bad, for example, the two pure-blood witches who testified Flint's crimes as witnesses, persecuted Asia, and served as Floyd's accomplices, because they are not the masterminds, and they are willing to testify later to make up for their mistakes, at least they can be exempted. one dead.
But obviously after the first eight public trials, the emotions of all the students in the audience were mobilized. They saw that every person brought up on the stage looked like a heinous villain, like these two pure blood witches, Before Mag had finished declaring their crimes, the audience was full of "hanging" voices.
The two of them were so frightened that they almost fainted on the spot. They were paralyzed on the high platform and couldn't stand up straight.
Fortunately, the role of McGonagall, Flitwick, and Lupine on the stage is to avoid such a situation from happening. In the end, of course, the two witches were not sentenced to hang, but were sentenced to 15 years in prison.
This means that although they followed Freud and killed the marijuana, they did not kill anyone, and Asia did not really die in the end, otherwise it would not have been only 15 years.
Draco also watched all the public trials throughout.
He was not selected as the target of the public trial. In the final analysis, he is a stinky fart with a bad personality, but he did not or did not have the courage to do so many evil things.
Lucius's hands were dirty, but out of the protection of his family, he didn't let his son touch those things, and because of the existence of the house elf Dobby, the Malfoy family didn't accept marijuana as slaves either. This leaves him little room for error.
So after being brought to France, he confessed everything he had done in Hogwarts castle without any threats.
Of course, he doesn’t need to go to a public trial in this case, as long as he writes the inspection in private, and then he is assigned to undergo labor reform for a period of time.
But after watching this public trial today, it still had a great impact on Draco, especially when he saw those faces that were not unfamiliar to him, being hung on the gallows, kicking his legs feebly , the scene where he finally completely cut off his breathing made him feel his legs go weak even when he was sitting on the chair, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Different from the original book, when Britain was completely ruled by Voldemort, Draco was exposed to a more complete bloodline education since he was a child.
Just like the **** who were brought to Hogwarts castle were taught to be inferior people and slaves since they were young, the new generation of noble pure blood was also instilled in them as superior and born stronger than others To be honorable.
Before meeting Jon, Draco firmly believed in this theory. Even after meeting Jon, he always comforted himself in his heart that Jon was just an outlier among the hemp species.
But today, when five familiar pure-blood corpses dangled in front of his eyes among the eight hanged people, the concept he had molded in the past fifteen years was truly shattered!
What is inherently noble?
On that gallows, bloodlines, identity, status, everything is illusory, it is the same whether you have bloodlines or not, and you will be hanged amidst the anger and condemnation of the public!
That day in the castle, Draco certainly doesn't remember the fact that Voldemort occupied his body. The only memory left in his mind is what Jon said to him before he fell into a coma. If Wu Pingxian won, his father would definitely die, but he might still be alive.
At that time, he felt very angry, extremely angry, but after hearing the crimes of those who were hanged today, he knew that what Jon said was not wrong.
As long as Lucius's men were stained with the blood of members of the Order of the Phoenix, it is impossible for him to be alive no matter what.
Unless he made the great contribution of being assassinated by Voldemort now and liberating the whole of England, Dumbledore would not be able to keep him even if he wanted to, let alone Dumbledore had no reason to keep him at all.
And Draco himself knew clearly that with his father's sloppy personality, he would never be able to make any possible risky assassination before the situation became clear, which means that as long as Dumbledore's side wins, he will There is no doubt that he must die!
Draco thought of this, and at the same time, he also saw those **** students sitting on chairs covering their faces and crying after each public trial.
He looked at the students who were about his age, feeling a little complicated.
Before, he never regarded the so-called "mudblood" as a normal person, because that was the education he received since he was a child.
And it was only today that he really knew that these people who were humbled in the theory of blood, they would cry and laugh, and there was nothing inherently inferior to him except for their origin.
Jon and Lily returned to the spider-tailed alley.
What kind of medicine did Snape use for Voldemort? Even if they have a list of medicinal ingredients, they still have no way to find more information through this.
Sometimes the magic of potions is even far superior to magic. Not to mention vague ingredients, even if it is a specific list of ingredients, no potion master would dare to confirm a potion based on this list.
Because in addition to those potion formulas that have been explored and explored for thousands of years, new potions will appear in the magic world almost every once in a while.
Not to mention that the potion Voldemort needed must be unusual, otherwise it wouldn't be so hidden, even the second Voldemort in his body was hidden.
So it is obviously unwise to find out what the potion is in this situation. They only need to capture Snape again, and then they can ask any questions.
Besides, no matter whether there is a clue of potion or not, Lily will definitely only come after Snape.
"After Snape was brought to France, shouldn't we have fed him Veritaserum for interrogation? Why didn't we ask about this potion?"
Walking by the river near Spider's End Alley, Jon asked suspiciously.
He felt that even if Dumbledore wanted to do something, there was no way he had already planned it at that time.
Lily just said plainly.
"His achievement in Occlumency is very high. This has been verified by our people after he was brought back from the UK. If he has this ability, if he wants to, it's not just about instigating, vomiting. The truth agent can also be circumvented, answering some false information."
Jon nodded thoughtfully.
He himself has a high level of attainment in Occlumency, but he only knows that this magic is resistant to insanity, and he has never done any experiments on Veritaserum, so he doesn't know about it.
"Professor, how can you be sure that Snape is likely to stay in this city and not go to other places?" Jon asked.
Lily did not answer Jon's question directly, but asked rhetorically.
"Do you know why Snape took the pseudonym Prince?"
Jon shook his head. He obviously didn't know much about Snape's past. He just knew that Snape once gave himself the title of "Half-Blood Prince" when he was young, and the word "Prince" was used as a first or surname That's Prince.
When he first heard the pseudonym Prince, he thought that the old Batman was still a middle-aged man, and he still wanted others to call him a prince.
"His mother's name is Erin Prince, and the last name is her mother's last name."
Hearing what Lily said, Jon showed a dazed expression on his face.
But Lily did not show any taboos about her past when she was a child, and continued.
“I have known him since childhood, and even the first time I knew about the existence of magic, wizards, and Hogwarts, he told me that it was near this spider’s end alley, where there used to be a lawn.”
"His mother is a pure-blood wizard and a very gentle woman, but his family is not good. His father hates everything about wizards and has a tendency to violence, so at that time he actually felt sorry for his father. There is hatred, and I don't like my surname Snape, and I secretly call myself Prince."
Jon blinked.
"so?"
"So he actually still has feelings for his mother. This has not dissipated because he joined the Death Eaters, otherwise he would not have been using the name Prince when he chose a pseudonym now."
Lily looked at the big chimney that was still spewing black mist into the sky in the distance, and said softly.
"So, I conclude that if he really stays in England and doesn't go back to his master, Snape will definitely stay in this city. The most dangerous place is the safest, and it's where he and His mother's house."
Her analysis is well-founded, and Jon also thinks it makes sense.
"But this city is not small, where do we start?"
"Don't be so anxious because you care about me. I have been waiting for so many years, and I won't be impatient for these few days. It's so late, let's find a place to live first."
