The mastermind behind Hogwarts

Chapter 494?

Hermione found Moriarty on a sunny afternoon when the castle was bathed in sunlight.

Moriarty and Lilith lay on the lawn outside the castle, basking in the warm sunlight.

Lilith and Moriarty said that the laws of justice had helped the Ministry of Magic release more than 500 wizards this week—for various reasons, including being coerced, under the Imperius Curse, or being controlled…

To be honest, what Lilith did was a bit unethical.

No one can guarantee that these former criminals will not commit crimes again in the future.

But one thing is certain: the criminals are now incapable of committing evil. They were released and immediately found a place to hide, recuperate, and regain their senses.

The Dementors and Azkaban have done them too much damage; it will probably take them three to five years to fully recover their physical and mental health.

It was precisely because of the criminal's physical condition that the Ministry of Magic approved the "lawyer's" request without any hesitation.

"Those officials are quick-witted; they know I'm giving them a way out. Otherwise, with so many criminals, where would they find Dementors?"

"And then there's Wizengamo—forgiving wizards who had committed crimes, which embodied humanistic concern, and the entire group of judges was praised."

"This win-win situation was created by me!"

Lilith rolled over excitedly, not caring that a few weeds were stuck in her long hair near her ear.

She turned to the side, propped her head up with her right hand, and spoke to Moriarty with a gleam in her eyes.

"I simply can't believe that in just one week, the attention and praise for justice and the law have exceeded what we received in the entire previous year!"

Moriarty looked at the happy Lilith. Hard work pays off. Lilith had been planning for three years and was about to blossom.

During this period, not only did the Daily Prophet praise justice and the law, but even Dumbledore began to look at "lawyers" with new respect.

He added 30 points to every member of the Justice Law team who stayed at the school to prepare materials.

Yes, Dumbledore did come back once.

He said that after taking control of Azkaban, he went to Extis Island to check it out again and found something on the ruins of the anti-magic circle.

Another task is to handle some paperwork for Tonks and his graduating Aurors.

Lilith was also praised by Dumbledore, and she, Tonks, and three other seventh-year students received the "Special Contribution Award" from Hogwarts.

Through this incident, Lilith has anointed herself and the law with a golden image.

But having a golden body alone is not enough.

If Moriarty hadn't discovered Extis, if Moriarty hadn't destroyed Extis, if Extis hadn't withdrawn the Dementors in retaliation against Moriarty...

I'm afraid that just laws won't develop quickly.

For a group to grow and thrive, it must demonstrate its benefits to outsiders.

We can only benefit from following you.

Grindelwald's "Saints" are like this.

Voldemort's Death Eaters were the same.

Dumbledore's "Order of the Phoenix" is still like this.

If "Justice Law" wants to become the premier organization in the magical world, Lilith needs to offer her subordinates some benefits.

After saying these words to Lilith, Lilith lay down on the grass, her legs raised, her beautiful feet in little golden boots crossed and raised, her hands supporting her face.

"Don't I know?" she said, raising her chin arrogantly. "I'm about to send a big gift to my subordinates and the Ministry of Magic!"

"You can talk, but could you please stop shaking your feet?"

Moriarty looked away, his blood boiling at Lilith's alluring appearance.

It's one thing to be swinging her beautiful legs, but the real issue is Lilith's current posture...

With each swing of her legs, her pert buttocks would rise and fall like waves, the round, firm flesh of her buttocks seeming to pop out.

Lilith chuckled and prepared to change direction and continue swinging, but Hermione came running from the other side.

"Waaaaah..."

Hermione wiped away her tears and rushed to Moriarty, nuzzling against him like a kitten.

Lilith was stunned.

There are actually girls in the entire Hogwarts who dare to throw themselves at Moriarty right in front of me!

Except for Tonks.

Except for Penelope.

Except for Violet.

Except for Zhang Qiu.

Who else!

Lilith's face darkened even more after she recognized Hermione.

It turns out he was a first grader...

Damn it!

Lilith's joy gradually turned into indifference.

There was something she really wanted to say to Moriarty.

I shared a room with you when I was in first grade, but you never held me in your arms. And now you're letting another girl cry in your arms!

Meanwhile, Moriarty had appeased Hermione, preventing her snot and tears from getting on her Slytherin robes.

"Hmph~"

Lilith exhaled a murderous aura from her nostrils, her gaze sweeping back and forth between Moriarty and Hermione, her eyes turning red!

Moriarty, on a sudden inspiration, said, "Granger, what's wrong? Maybe Pilivik can help you."

Hermione leaned against Moriarty's chest, gradually stopping her sobs, and recounted everything in detail, her tone filled with disappointment and grievance.

Lilith raised an eyebrow, keenly sensing that the relationship between the two was not simple.

"This is nothing, I can help you solve this small problem, but you two—"

Lilith gritted her teeth: "Don't you have to tell me what your relationship is?!"

She glared angrily at Moriarty, a hint of confusion in her eyes, the rest filled with resentment.

I was here first!

Why are there so many girls surrounding you, but I'm never one of them?

Tonks is an upperclassman, so I won't say anything.

Narcissa has a hot body, no need to say more.

It doesn't matter that Diana is an elf.

It doesn't matter if Furong is a Meiwa.

It doesn't matter that Violet is a vampire.

Penelope and Cho Chang didn't make a move either, and Lilith didn't think much of it.

But it had to be Hermione!

Why should I?!

When I was in first grade, you didn't hold me in your arms.

Humph.

Moriarty also noticed that Lilith harbored some resentment.

Hermione was also staring longingly at Moriarty.

What is our relationship?

Hermione wanted to ask about it the first time she drank milk, but Moriarty covered her mouth...

Hermione then became so engrossed in the fragrant milk that she forgot all about it...

Now that Lilith has said that, Hermione's clever little mind starts to work.

"Brother Moriarty... I also want to know what our relationship is..." Hermione said weakly.

Moriarty glanced at Hermione, then at Lilith, and decided to give the two women an explanation.

"Lilith, you might not believe it, but Hermione recently performed a magical transformation."

"Animagus? Her?"

Lilith stared at Hermione in astonishment, unable to believe that this Muggle girl had achieved magical transformation in her first year.

You should know that even I only saw the manuscript of magical transformation by chance in my second year, and then started to try it. I didn't master Animagus until my third year.

Ultimately, Lilith's transformation was thanks to Moriarty.

"Hmm... It's a bit complicated. Hermione had some accidents, but she really turned into a catgirl with a great figure."

Moriarty released Hermione and stroked her hair like he was petting a cat.

"No!"

Hermione playfully pressed her hair down; she didn't like it being messy, but Moriarty loved it, saying it felt like petting a cat.

Lilith seemed to be deep in thought. Over the years, she had become quite adept at suppressing her spoiled princess temper and quickly considered what was beneficial to her.

Moriarty nodded and said, "It seems you've thought of that. You're also an Animagus, and you possess special magical transformation abilities. Hermione has a great talent for this; you two can exchange ideas."

"No." Lilith shook her head and smiled. "Why should I? What benefits can you bring me?"

She asked Hermione, "Don't expect me to teach you."

She emphasized the word "brother," revealing that Lilith still harbored a little resentment.

But more than anything, I feel regret.

Why didn't I think of magical transformation back then!

Lilith thought with frustration what she might have become if she had turned into something like that in Athens.

Am I Mrs. Slytherin now?

Where are Narcissa, Tonks, and Diana now?

Therefore, Lilith does not want to "aid the enemy".

She was determined to be with Mrs. Slytherin.

At this time, Hermione was still a clueless first-year student, far from the quick-witted and eloquent girl she would become later. She glanced at Moriarty.

"Okay, I apologize for disturbing you. I've come at the wrong time."

As she spoke, she stood up to leave.

"No," Moriarty interrupted, "you've come at the perfect time! Come here, Hermione, sit down next to me."

He almost forcefully pulled Hermione back, and then pulled Lilith to his side.

The three of them sat together, looking even closer.

Being so close, Lilith could smell Moriarty's masculine scent, causing her to blush and her heart to race. "What are you trying to say? I still need to find some information with Gemma."

Moriarty, of course, understood her insincerity and smiled, "You didn't teach Hermione Transfiguration for nothing; Hermione can also be an asset to you."

"Her?" Lilith now had the right to be disdainful.

"Speaking out for the vulnerable! That's Hermione's motto," Moriarty said solemnly. "So, isn't it somehow related to your 'speaking out for justice'?"

"This..." Lilith gave Hermione a deep look. "A first-year student who says something like that is either an idiot or exceptionally gifted."

"Do you think there are any stupid girls around me?" Moriarty grinned triumphantly. "Hermione might just be the next one!"
