Harry Potter Hello Dark Lord
Chapter 170: Back to School (Part 2)
September 1st is the time when Hogwarts starts school.
However, the atmosphere at the opening of Hogwarts this year was extremely strange. At 11 noon, platform nine and three-quarters was filled with students and their parents.
According to the past, the Hogwarts Express officially departs at 11:00 on September 1st every year, and there has never been any deviation since the arrival of this express.
But this year, the Hogwarts Express was late. Even after it passed the departure point, the train still did not enter the station.
The crowd at the platform was crowded. Many lower-grade students were gathering together to play and play. The upper-grade students were in a more stable circle. At this time, they were all standing together and chatting casually. However, the faces of the parents were full of expressions.
Restless mood.
"Did you read this morning's Daily Prophet? Europe is almost in chaos."
"I see, the Polish Magic Enforcement Department was attacked by a group of dark wizards last night. No one in the department survived. Many wizards throughout Poland disappeared for no reason. What is going on in this world? There are many elite and proud wizards in this department.
Luo, they all died overnight. I heard that we still don’t know who the murderer is."
"Do you still need to ask? It must be Grindelwald... In the past six months, Poland and the German Muggle government have been at war with each other due to territorial disputes. Grindelwald seems to be cooperating with the German Muggle government. This early morning, almost in Poland
At the same time that the Department of Magical Enforcement was attacked, the German Muggle government launched a war, and I heard that there were many strange iron-winged robot birds flying in the skies of Poland."
At the same time, a group of people on the other side gathered together and chatted in low voices.
"Hector is probably going to fall. The Inferi riot in London more than a month ago has put him in danger. Last night, the Ministry of Magic was invaded by dark wizards. The Wizengamot Council has begun organizing to impeach him.
Life is not easy now."
"He is also a branch of the Welfare family. Didn't the Welfare family express their position?" A middle-aged wizard wearing a top hat asked doubtfully.
"Which department are you in? You don't even know the relationship between the welfare family and the minister?"
"I'm from the Sports Department..." the tall-hatted middle-aged man said awkwardly. The newly educated wizard beside him had a look of understanding on his face. He puffed up his chest and patted the man's shoulder in a pretentious manner.
The Sports Department is actually an unpopular department in the Ministry. Due to the current chaotic situation, the Sports Department is basically a sinecure and does not participate in the important affairs of the Ministry of Magic. It is marginalized and its status in the Ministry is
At the bottom of the contempt chain.
In fact, it is understandable that today's Sports Department is not as good at running as later generations. In addition, the current situation is chaotic. The Quidditch World Cup has not been held as scheduled for three or four years. People can't live their lives, so why do they engage in sports?
ah.
"You are from the Sports Department, so it's normal that you don't know. Although Minister Hector is from the Welfare family, his relationship with the Welfare family is a bit subtle. Hector is determined to reform the current situation in the magic world and wants to further improve magic.
He tried to tighten the authority of the ministry and tighten the rights of the family, which offended many people."
"Is he crazy? Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Ministry of Magic is just a cover, and the aristocratic family is the holder of power."
"Who knows what he was thinking, this is unlucky. Hey, in fact, these emergencies are not to blame on him. This impeachment is obviously an excuse to use the topic. Although it is the Wizengamot Parliament discussing the impeachment document, but
To put it bluntly, it is not controlled by a few big families."
As he was talking, a little old man on the side hurriedly interrupted the words of several people, looked around cautiously and said: "Shh, keep your voice down, who knows if there are people around who are gossiping. If you continue to talk, be careful that you will be implicated this time.
When you work in the ministry, just muddle along and don't have to figure everything out so clearly."
Everyone was silent after hearing this. It took a long time for a few people to change the topic and talk about the delay of the Hogwarts Express.
Not far away from the platform wall, Qin Weijie was sitting casually on his suitcase, holding two newspapers in one hand and stroking the slightly fierce Ergou beside him with the other, looking at the people around him from time to time.
Qin Weijie also overheard the conversation not far away just now. Qin Weijie could only sigh secretly at the recent changes in the situation.
"Why aren't you here yet~" Elena yawned, holding a book in her hands, flipping through it boredly, and saying impatiently.
"Wait a moment, Tom seems to have gone to ask the president of the male student body. There should be the latest news when he comes back."
Qin Weijie seemed to be talking casually, looking from time to time in the direction where Tom left just now. There was some anxiety in his eyes, as if he was thinking, where did this brat die? Why hasn't he come back...
When it comes to communicating with the student union president, Qin Weijie thinks that he is not very suitable, but Tom is more experienced.
Tom, the grandson, is very good at pretending. He pretends to be like a dog in front of others. Qin Weijie saw it in school last semester. Anyway, whenever Tom appears, there will be a group of people around him. He is like a star on the stage.
He was treated like a star. The most important thing is that this grandson is surrounded not only by freshmen, but also by many senior guys, who are like licking dogs.
In fact, if you think about it, under the secret operation of Old Welfare, almost everyone in Hogwarts today thinks that Tom is the heir to the Welfare family. In addition, Tom is well-dressed all day long, obviously wearing school uniforms and robes. This guy can
Wear the temperament of an aristocratic young master.
This resulted in Qin Weijie and Tom hanging out together all day long, but they seemed to be transparent people. In terms of school popularity, Qin Weijie could not compare with Tom. Even the difference in their test scores at the end of last semester was only one.
Two minutes later, Tom was slightly taller. As a result, most people only saw Tom's academic aura, while Qin Weijie... haha... the second place was destined to be a foil!
All I can say is that this world, after all, is still a world where faces are judged. Pretty boys just get away with it.
Just as he was thinking about it, Qin Weijie saw Tom squeeze out of the crowd.
Qin Weijie quickly cast an inquiring look, and Tom said: "The train was delayed on the way. I don't know the specific reason. It is estimated that it will have to wait another twenty minutes."
At this time, Elena interrupted: "How could this happen? It's impossible! The Hogwarts Express train was cast by contract magic by several great magicians, and it is never late! I was in Hogwarts last year
I saw the "5972 Train Design and Enchanting Manuscript" in the library, which clearly recorded the 5972 train design plan.
And I have also read the departure and time records of 5972 trains. The Hogwarts Express has been running for 27 years and has made a total of 189 departures. Except for the first departure, which was delayed for half a minute due to the ribbon-cutting event, it has made 188 departures since then.
There has never been any delay in departure, I think there must be something wrong with the delay of the train this time!"
"Hey, you are a pervert, a god of learning, and a data geek, why did I get together with you two..." Listening to Irina's serious face, she presented the facts, reasoned, and pulled the data. Qin Weijie helped her helplessly.
Er said.
Elena's cheeks were slightly red and she said with a smile: "Humph, just like that, I haven't passed the test for you two..."
While the three of them were talking, a hoarse and gloomy voice sounded from the side:
"Haha, you three elementary school bullies should stop causing hatred here. The three of you took the first, second and third place in the first-grade final exam respectively. You still have the nerve to mock and scold each other, but be careful if others hear you and come over to kick you.
you!"
"Senior Minsk!?" Qin Weijie looked up and happened to see Minsk, who was covered in brown robes and walking stooped. He couldn't help but said in surprise: "I was looking for you just now, but I turned around and didn't see you or other club members.
Where were you just now?"
Minsk glanced at everyone, took out his wand and cast an earplug listening spell to isolate the surrounding sounds, and then lowered his voice and said to the three of them: "We were recruited just now to help the Hogwarts train run. The train
We were attacked by evil creatures on the way, and the train conductor died."
Qin Weijie took a deep breath, Tom opened his eyes unconsciously, and Elena almost exclaimed.
"What kind of creature attacked? Is there someone behind it?" Tom calmed down and asked.
"It was an evil creature called Dementor that had disappeared for a long time that attacked the train. It is said that Dementor has not appeared for nearly seventy years. I heard that the few remaining ones are imprisoned underground in the Ministry of Magic.
How could it suddenly appear again!" Minsk said, as if talking to himself.
Qin Weijie and Tom didn't ask any questions at this time. They looked at each other and then looked at the "Daily Prophet" in Qin Weijie's hand, and a headline came into view.
"Last night, the Ministry of Magic was attacked by a mysterious dark wizard! Until this morning, the Ministry of Magic still did not explain the specific situation!"
