The mastermind behind Hogwarts

Chapter 497 Justice and Law, Strike!

"Honestly, you don't need to get involved in this mess."

Moriarty rose from his chair, placed his hands on the table, and looked at Dumbledore with unwavering determination in his grey eyes.

Moriarty had his own pride and confidence.

Even without Dumbledore's help, he was confident he could contend with the Immortals.

He's now locked in a life-or-death struggle with the Immortal Organization.

Dumbledore, however, saw no need to confront the Immortals.

The Immortals Organization won't cause trouble for Dumbledore—they're just pursuing immortality.

So far, Moriarty has not found any of them with the dangerous idea of ​​enslaving humanity or ruling the world.

Even without opposing the Immortals Organization, Dumbledore remains the Headmaster of Hogwarts, Head of Wizengamot, and the most influential and powerful white wizard of his time.

"What I said to you and Professor Polly last time still stands," Dumbledore said seriously. "This is a personal vendetta! Ye Jingyu kidnapped a Hogwarts student—I, as the headmaster, have no reason to let him get away with it."

A stubborn old man.

Moriarty smiled gently and let him go.

Although he advised Dumbledore to avoid the trouble, it did not mean that he refused Dumbledore's help.

You should know that Dumbledore possessed a treasure trove of knowledge.

He is not only a powerful mage, but before becoming a mage, he was a scholar who conducted in-depth research in multiple fields.

Not to mention...

Moriarty gave the notes on the table a meaningful look.

The man behind Dumbledore...

GGAD.

Their existence is like a large library.

It contains what is arguably the most comprehensive and advanced knowledge and information in the world.

This time, the magic-blocking array led them to Merlin, Salazar, and Yurik Gamp.

That's the role played by this "library".

"Then I won't try to persuade you anymore."

Moriarty is about to leave.

"By the way, Ye Jingyu, whom you've been longing for, is currently in very bad shape."

Nightfall, having lost an eye while being pursued by the Cain Brotherhood, fled in a sorry state.

However, the Cain Brotherhood was wiped out by the lich created by Extis.

Extis has another owner...

Every single member of the Immortal Organization seems shrouded in mystery.

Moriarty silently reminded himself not to become complacent.

Despite finding the Seashell of Wind.

If Moriarty were to engage in battle with Ye Jingyu at this moment, he would be confident of killing him with a single blow!

Dumbledore, who was on par with Ye Jingyu, was the same.

After Moriarty left the headmaster's office, Dumbledore began to talk to the portrait of the headmaster on the wall.

"Dear Principal Black, do you know who Hesper Gamp is? She married into the Black family."

The answer came from Phineas Nigellus Black, Sirius's great-great-grandfather.

"Oh, I don't want to mention her, but actually I have some connection with her..."

"Could you tell me what kind of person she is?" Dumbledore asked politely, his eyes gleaming with interest.

Meanwhile, Moriarty returned to his single dormitory and spent his last night of fourth grade with Violet.

The next day, the Hogwarts students returned to London on the Express.

As the train slowly pulled into the station, the young wizards smiled as they saw their parents and relatives.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out on the platform as a group of people dressed as lawyers appeared.

Their lawyers, dressed in spotless white robes, with piercing eyes and an imposing presence, strode in, and the crowd, intimidated by their imposing aura, quickly retreated to the back.

The train pulled into the station, and the lawyers cordoned off the train exit.

Lilith, sitting in the boardroom, seemed to sense something.

She stretched out one arm, her snow-white skin glowing like the morning sun in the sunlight streaming through the window.

Lilith waved goodbye to Moriarty.

"I'm going now, bye-bye~"

As she spoke, she walked out of the compartment with the confidence and elegance of a queen. Gemma and Percy, who had been waiting for a long time, followed her off the train.

Percy also took out a white coat and draped it over Lilith's shoulders.

"Everyone..."

Lilith glanced at the lawyers, who followed her respectfully, their eyes gleaming with excitement. Their eagerness pleased Lilith greatly, and she nodded. "Let's go!"

A large group of people left in a hurry.

The crowd watched them silently, and from their young faces, it was clear that their average age was less than 17! Or even younger!

Moreover, judging from their actions and expressions, they showed no intention of avoiding Muggles!

Platform 9¾ is located inside London's main train station. Walking out like this, you risk being seen by Muggles...

however.

The group of people were completely unafraid and swaggered out!

Not only were the parents amazed, but the young wizards who witnessed this scene were also stunned.

Hermione idolized Lilith, and she knew exactly what Lilith was going to do, fantasizing that one day she could also gather a large group of like-minded partners to speak out for the disadvantaged.

Ron noticed that Percy was among them, and blinked, a hint of calculation and malice flashing in his eyes.

In the boardroom, Jericho witnessed Lilith's entire departure and looked at Moriarty, saying, "Sir, justice and the law have grown stronger."

"You mean they're a threat?" Moriarty chuckled, Jericho always saw through him but never said it.

After all, Jericho, like himself and Lilith, was a pureblood who had grown up in the power struggles of the world.

"No, I wouldn't dare say that."

Jericho laughed too. He could see Lilith's feelings for Moriarty, though that was the gist of it, but how could he say it out loud?

Moriarty shook his head, not dwelling on the topic. Who could predict what would happen in the future?

At least, what Lilith is doing now can only benefit Moriarty, and not harm him.

Soldaya, however, asked with great interest, "Senior Lilith must have gone to the Ministry of Magic. What's she going to do?"

"Just wait and see what the newspapers say; what she did was no small matter."

Moriarty turned his gaze to the window.

He anticipated what Lilith would do.

Lilith, from now on, I can no longer treat you as a student.

The Ministry of Magic at the same time.

Second floor, the main hall of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

Minister Connelly Fauci.

Amelia Borns, Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

Rufus Scrimgeour, Director of the Auror Office.

Doria Dictlos, Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters.

Director of the International Department of Magical Cooperation, Barty Crouch.

Mrs. Klinmer, Director of the Flyro Networks Authority.

Phoebus Penrose, Chairman of the Ministry of Magic's Investigation Committee.

Gidrol Lohart, the leader of the anti-gang task force.

And some of their key subordinates.

They gathered together at Lilith's request.

The reason they listen to Lilith is...

It was Lilith and the law of justice that helped the Ministry of Magic resolve the disappearance of the Dementors and the lingering problems of Azkaban.

So when Lilith said that a trial would be held today, the department readily agreed.

however.

Upon their arrival, they discovered that this trial seemed somewhat unusual.

The directors, Auror leaders, and ministers of all departments have arrived!

Fudge asked Barty Crouch with suspicion, "Do you know what Miss Pilliwick is going to do? We... there are too many of us waiting for her here."

Batty Crouch was promoted by Lilith's grandfather, Pilivik Sr., and was a strong contender for minister against Fudge.

From an outsider's perspective, Barty Crouch knows everything Lilith is up to, and the Pilivik family is certainly aware of whatever Barty Crouch does.

However, this time, Old Batty was unaware of this.

He laughed and said, "My dear minister, Miss Pilivik has always been quirky and unpredictable; I can never fathom her thoughts."

Lockhart listened to their conversation and thought to himself that Lilith might become his mistress in the future, and he had to protect her if anything happened.

"clang!"

The elevator suddenly stopped on the second floor.

A tall wizard dressed in a black and blue wizard's robe walked out.

Lockhart was relieved when he saw him approaching.

"Albus..." Fudge stared in surprise, then said somewhat awkwardly and insincerely, "Dear Dumbledore, you've been invited here too."

Dumbledore strode over and said in a gentle manner, "Ladies and gentlemen, not only me, but also a few old friends abroad, Judge Wizengamot is on his way here."

Fudge turned to Umbridge in the minister's advisor's office, as if he had been dealt a major blow.

Why didn't you tell me about the minister when Wisengam was mobilized?

Umbridge secretly winked at him.

This made Fudge feel a little better.

"Ugh~"

Upon seeing this, Lockhart almost threw up the strawberry Mont Blanc he had eaten that morning.

Just then, a series of orderly footsteps echoed down the corridor.

All eyes turned to Lilith, who had arrived with a large group of lawyers.
