Harry Potter’s Defense Professor - Chapter 441
In September, the Ministry of Magic has carried out several reforms, in order to facilitate the pursuit of Death Eaters who have fled abroad, and also to quickly send wizards to assist when organizations similar to Death Eaters are born in other European countries. British magic After communicating with the French Ministry of Magic, the Ministry began to build a cross-sea fireplace line.
Azkaban, the famous wizarding prison, reopened after renovation and refurbishment, and all the wizards who were sentenced were put back into it. The Dementor’s extermination order was revoked, and the Ministry of Magic did not learn from the previous lesson and sent them to guard the prison. Opposition to the decree overshadowed the marriage law debate and became the hottest topic after the Dark Lord was wiped out.
Mr. Scrimgeour, the Deputy Minister of Magic, publicly opposed the “reform”, which was not a reform. It is said that he had quarreled with Minister Lockhart several times in the Minister’s Office over this matter, and the relationship between the two suddenly deteriorated to freezing point.
As more wizards immigrated to the UK, Hogwarts, at the urging of the Ministry of Magic, abolished the rule that only British and Irish wizards were admitted. In addition to this, the school has followed a thousand-year-old segregation system, which was abolished because it was considered sloppy and prone to estrangement, and instead was divided according to the interests and aspirations of children.
Adults have some discussions about this, but almost no children care about it, because among the dozen or so transfer students that Hogwarts welcomed this year, there is a little girl named Gabriel Delacour, who is said to be of Veela blood. , is extremely beautiful – after a summer vacation, except that it is still difficult to control when she sees her idol, the little Veela can basically control her charm ability, and she also starts school on time like other little wizards. The girls were nervous and the boys were excited about her coming.

The Spells and Magic Research Department of the Department of Mysteries also began to recruit people to resume work as Lockhart hoped, and he specially handed over the only resurrection stone in the Deathly Hallows, which he had never understood what it did, to the Department of Mysteries. , ordered the wizard’s scientific research institution to figure out its function, and based on its principles, restore the technology of performing multiple complex enchantments on a magic item invented by the Peverell brothers.
After experiments, the function of the resurrection stone was quickly determined-contrary to the previous speculation that it could summon the soul of the dead, its function was actually very simple: through the cooperation of several magics. Allows the user to hallucinate and see loved ones who have passed away.
But what the user can see is actually only the person he imagined, and the memory, personality, body, appearance of the other party… all come from the user’s memory. Even the words they can say are what the user wants to hear: for example, when Dumbledore sees his sister with the resurrection stone, she will tenderly say that she forgives her brother; if Harry sees his parents, they will encourage his son to fight bravely go down…
Compared with the Elder Wand and the Invisibility Cloak, the Resurrection Stone is probably the most useless thing among the three Deathly Hallows. Only the weak-willed will need its encouragement… But then again. Man is not a machine, who is not shaken when it is?
Although not very practical, the enchantment on the Resurrection Stone is far more complex and subtle than its two brothers. How did the Peverell brothers attach so many different but non-conflicting magics to such a small thing? As long as this is understood, wouldn’t it be possible to mass produce high-quality invisibility cloaks and powerful wands, and even bring a magical revolution to the entire wizarding world?
It’s been too long since everything in the wizarding world has changed, and it’s time for a revolution.
With wizard crime at an all-time low, the Aurors and Strikers turned their focus to the search for Voldemort’s last Horcrux. The job wasn’t easy, and Voldemort had clearly learned his lesson. There is no special place for this last Horcrux. The wizards of the British Ministry of Magic have turned over every place where Voldemort and the Death Eaters have been stationed, but they still haven’t found any trace of the golden cup. Some people even asked the prophet to figure out where it was, but there was no trace of it. Humans can make such precise non-event predictions…

But in all of this, Lockhart will not and will not need to participate in himself – he now decides to enjoy his life, and from now on, he will only issue orders behind the scenes, and will no longer show his face and do it himself.
In the six months leading up to the last big event, Lockhart married two girls, and while the two daughters-in-law surprised his parents a bit, his mother supported him unconditionally. As for the father—compared to the fact that his wife told him that she was a witch more than 20 years ago, the two daughters-in-law did not seem so absurd.
As a Muggle, Baron Lockhart obviously prefers Hermione, who lives and speaks exactly like a Muggle; and the shrewd Baroness, although she finds both daughters-in-law very likable. But still show her preference in front of Pandora, lest the girl feel left out.
Afterwards, Lockhart was busy fulfilling his desire to “transform the Order of the Phoenix from a small group of wizards to a large multinational forum-type organization of highly qualified and enlightened wizards.”
This wish is grand and difficult to achieve. But he is known as the strongest wizard in himself, and manages one third of the wizards in Europe at the same time. Even with the Chinese Ministry of Magic, which has the largest number of registered wizards in the world, the Order of the Phoenix has a tendency to become the United Nations of the wizarding world…

In February 1999, if nothing else, Lockhart would no longer be Minister of Magic next month.
“You’re the new leader of the Dementors now?”
“Yes, Mr. Minister…” A man in black robes answered Lockhart across the minister’s desk.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that it was a Dementor that was hovering obediently low to the ground, shaking the air, and carefully answering the Minister of Magic’s question.
“Are you okay with the seniors who I ordered to execute you half a year ago.” Lockhart asked genially.
“No, sir, they foolishly chose to join Voldemort, which almost brought disaster to our species, they brought it upon themselves, damn—”
“I’m glad you’re so sensible.” Lockhart said with satisfaction: “Then I’m going to entrust you with one thing now. If you do it well, I will give the Dementors a better life. If you don’t do it well, you will Starving in Azkaban for a lifetime…”
“Mr. Minister…” The Dementor quickly expressed his loyalty: “I am willing to serve you.”
“There are not many prisoners in Azkaban now. Yesterday, the last group of wizards whose sentences were reduced to six months have been released…” Lockhart said lightly: “You know the remaining prisoners have Anything in common?”
“They’re all Death Eaters? No—some aren’t, they’re all men? Uh…”
Seeing that the Dementor was stumped, Lockhart shook his head and stopped talking: “The rest of these people are either crazy bloodists, the ones who killed my Auror comrades in war, or I killed them. Those who have died of their relatives and hold a grudge against me… some are stubborn, and some have hatred against me or threaten me. What they have in common is that they are all people I want to kill!”
The Dementor was shivered by Lockhart’s gloomy tone, and replied more carefully: “But—if you want to kill them, wouldn’t it be better to just sentence them to death?”
“It’s not that simple, I don’t want to get in trouble!” Lockhart glared at the Dementor: “You don’t need to know too much, just understand my intentions.”
“You mean, let’s–but if the dementors start…the wizard won’t let us go~www.mtlnovel.com~ But what if the prisoners escape?” Lockhart asked with a smile: “I’m here. , what are you afraid of. At eleven o’clock tonight, the dementors will just kill the prisoners who are still in the prison, and then notify the Ministry of Magic that the prisoners have escaped, and the Ministry of Magic will fake the scene for you.”
“But the Dementors can’t survive without the prisoners… Mr. Minister.”
“After this vote, I will allow you to go to Muggle cities to fill your stomach.” Lockhart replied: “As long as you control your numbers and don’t kill people, I will turn a blind eye. One eye.”
“This-” This Dementor, who is only a few years old and has almost no experience, is moved. Now the crime rate of wizards has dropped, and the prisoners who were originally locked up have been released from prison after their sentences have been completed or even commuted. They are there almost every day. starving.
Lockhart leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes: “This is an order, not a request, now you go back. Remember, I’m a very superstitious person, if anyone else knows about this, even if it’s not you It’s my fault, and I’ll blame you too.”
“Yes, Mr. Minister.” The Dementor bowed in mid-air and floated out the door. Leaving Lockhart behind him, his eyes gleamed.
Most of the prisoners have only a few months to a year or two left, will they escape? Dementors of a little age and brains might have realized the conspiracy, but they were all dead. Now the dementors, only a group of brainless babies.
So what if you see that something is wrong, even if it’s all over and a dementor survives Scrimgeour’s seamless trap, and goes out into the street and tells the wizard that he’s been framed, only to be greeted by a wand from his wand. The patron saint of spouting, instead of listening and trusting.
