Chapter 1171: Defense Against The Dark Arts Potter
In the early morning, countless owls flapped their wings and poured into the castle hall of Hogwarts. After circling above the heads of the students enjoying breakfast, they fell to the recipient's side to perform their duties as postmen.
Harry picked up the newspaper dropped by the owl and began to read it. Harry found himself preferring the Daily Prophet under Scrimgeour's control to the Daily Prophet that had been controlled by Fudge, at least in the newspapers. The content always makes people feel good.
A few days ago, the Ministry of Magic once again smashed the conspiracy of the mysterious man, and the news of the successful killing of several Death Eaters spread throughout Hogwarts. The only one who was unhappy about it was probably Harry in Slater. Lin's nemesis: Draco Malfoy.
No wonder Malfoy's face was so sullen lately that he was almost out of water. Bella was his relative.
Harry looked back, took a sip of pumpkin juice, looked at today's headlines, and quickly found a surprising piece of news.
A reporter was beaten by the victim's family for overly speaking while interviewing family members who were persecuted by the Death Eaters. He is currently hospitalized with serious injuries.
The Ministry of Magic regrets the incident and has reassured the victim's family, with Minister Scrimgeour claiming that they will not receive any punishment for the heroic sacrifice of their relatives in the recent war.
The Ministry of Magic sternly reminded the general public that Barty Crouch Jr., who was sympathized with back then, was the culprit that led to the return of the mysterious man. He believed that people should put away their ridiculous sympathy for Death Eaters and Dark Wizards.
"puff!"
Harry squirted out the pumpkin juice he had just drank, which he was sure was definitely intentional, probably because the reporter said something drastic that completely annoyed the Ministry, causing Scrimgeour to arrange for him to "interview" Victim's family.
"What's the matter, Harry."
Hermione, who was reading "Advanced Rune Translation", raised her head and cast a suspicious look at Harry, who was laughing.
"Today's headlines, I bet Scrimgeour was doing it on purpose." Harry handed the newspaper to Hermione and asked casually, "How's your investigation going?"
"I have rummaged through many books, and even went to the forbidden area, but I still can't find any clues. I suspect that some of the books have been removed."
Hermione suspected that Dumbledore had taken all the books on Horcruxes.
"What a problem for me!" Harry muttered.
"Don't worry Harry, Dumbledore has left you for a long time, and I think you need to get in touch with Professor Slughorn in advance."
"You think I should go to the 'Slug' party?" Harry was a little gloomy, not because he didn't want to go to the party, but because he didn't think it would be a good idea to leave Ron.
"That party wasn't as bad as you thought," Hermione whispered. "Actually, it was kind of fun."
"Maybe, I should drink some more Flux and try my luck. No, it's better to let Dumbledore drink Flux and try my luck."
Harry had actually tried it, and the Flux did make things go smoothly. However, his intuition was not to ask him to go to Professor Slughorn, but to go to Dumbledore, because Harry felt that he could Albert predicted divination, or persuaded Dumbledore to use Flux to try his luck with Professor Slughorn.
Later, Harry learned that Dumbledore had actually approached Albert to predict the number of Horcruxes, but they had to get more accurate information to prevent any accidents.
After all, their enemy was Voldemort, and any missteps would undo their efforts.
Therefore, Harry gave up temporarily. The dose of Fuling was limited, and he did not dare to waste it at will, and planned to save it for a critical moment.
"Can you contact Albert?" Harry asked Hermione, turning his head.
"Is that all right?"
"Do you really think that guy doesn't know anything?" Harry said dryly.
"No way." Hermione cast her eyes on Ron.
"Fred and George have recently disappeared. It is said that the Death Eaters are now staring at them, trying to find Albert through them. By the way, Bill asked us not to write important things in the letter, lest the letter be intercepted." Luo En took the newspaper, read the headlines above, and asked, "By the way, Harry, when are you going to hold the meeting of the Defense Association."
"End of the month!" Harry said without hesitation.
"No Harry, we promised to go to the Wizards Card Club."
Although Albert left the club to Luna, Hermione hoped that the lighthearted atmosphere would be maintained.
"I found that this month has been a lot of things." Harry sighed helplessly, and took out his quill to record the content.
After there are too many things, if you don't write them down, it is easy to forget, or forget the homework of a certain course.
"By the way, Harry, have you heard?" Ron seemed to sound something, and suddenly said, "Malfoy seems to have voluntarily quit the Quidditch team."
"It's unusual," said Harry.
"I think it's normal. Whoever made his father a Death Eater, probably no one would want to deal with the son of a Death Eater." Ron was in a happy mood, and no one wanted to see Malfoy unlucky more than Weasley. .
"Most Death Eaters are from Slytherin, do you think they really care about these questions?" Harry wanted to find Albert not only for the Horcrux, he also wanted the other party to help with divination, see See what the **** Draco Malfoy is up to.
He had an indescribable feeling that Harry suspected Malfoy as a Death Eater, but he didn't think the guess would convince his two best friends, because it did sound ridiculous.
"I always feel like that guy is brewing some terrible conspiracy."
"Okay Harry, don't worry about Malfoy's conspiracy, when are you going to start the party, everyone can't wait." Ron turned his eyes to Hermione: "Are you ready?"
"I suggest this weekend," Hermione suggested. "You should be free, right?"
"Okay!" Harry nodded in agreement. "Anyway, once a month, what do you think we should talk about this month?"
"Choose from the "Guide to Self-Defense", so that everyone can have books." Hermione suggested: "You can teach everyone how to use spells to build a safe temporary camp. I remember there are relevant content in the book."
"I don't think these things are useful to everyone. After all, they can't everyone have a seamless stretch bag, and it's impossible for everyone to have a tent." Ron reminded kindly. , he doubts that most students will use this part, because no one is stupid enough to wander around, even if Albert once said that Muggle wizards will have a harder time.
"We can use a party to explain it. It's always good to learn something. After all, we have also learned a lot of defense magic!" Hermione advised
"A lot, no, we only learned a little bit of skin." Ron obviously disagreed with Hermione's words, "In Fred's words, it's a self-righteous little fool who only learned a little bit of skin. This is also the "Guide to Self-Defense" Why do people run away most of the time instead of fighting back."
"Albert deliberately put this part of the content into it, there must be his reasons, I think it is necessary to master this part of the skills."
Looking at the two who were about to argue, Harry quickly interrupted: "I'm going to take some time to review the magic I've learned before, and by the way, I'll review the Patronus Charm again. Now dementors are everywhere, I think It is necessary to master the Patronus Charm proficiently."
"As for learning how to set up a safe camp in the wild, I can wait until next month. At least let me figure it out first, otherwise how can I teach others!"
In fact, Harry felt that Hermione was right. There was nothing superfluous in Albert's "Guide to Self-Defense", and the content in it was very useful.
The news that Harry was planning to re-host the DA party spread like wings in the castle. After hearing the news, everyone came over to say hello to Harry, and by the way, asked Harry to teach everyone at the party. what magic.
