Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Page 410

"Enough, be quiet!" Mr. Weasley shouted hastily, "You guys are serious, this is the Ministry of Magic."

Even so, he still had a smile on his face.

When they returned to No. 12, Isolation Square, after Mrs. Weasley heard the news, she first hugged Harry vigorously, then hugged Ivan, wiped her tears with her apron, and was equally overjoyed.

"Well, you guys sit down to lunch, especially you, Harry, who barely had breakfast."

Several people sat down at the dining table, still digesting the good news.

"The detailed report on the trial will be published tomorrow. If Rita is fast enough, I think I can get her report in the afternoon." Ivan said, "You probably can't imagine Fudge's expression at that time."

"It's really funny," said Harry, the dizzying sense of relief that had been dampened a little by his encounter with Lucius Malfoy revived again.

He recalled Fudge's performance at that time, and it was really funny.

"I said long ago that as long as Dumbledore came forward to support you, they would not be able to convict you. It goes without saying." Ron said happily, while dividing large chunks of mashed potatoes into everyone's plate.

"Yeah, he sorted it out for me," said Harry, who felt that it would look reckless if he said now, "I wish he had said something to me, even looked at me." Not to mention how childish it is.

But he really hoped that Dumbledore could say a few words to him, and then he remembered what Ivan had told him before.

Thinking of this, the scar on Harry's forehead suddenly felt a sharp pain, and he quickly reached out to cover it.

He's been in touch with Occlumency lately, but to no avail.

Ivan has already told Harry everything he knows. He himself is not very proficient in this complicated magic technique, and he can only barely master it.

Facing Harry's current situation, the help he could provide was already very limited.

Perhaps, Snape should teach him, Snape's Occlumency has almost become an instinct of the body.In the past ten years, he has tightly closed and protected his consciousness. Even if no one wanted to know what he was thinking, he still did not relax and never stopped this magic.

Ivan noticed Harry's abnormality. Does this mean that Voldemort also knew the result of the trial and was losing his temper.

Or, he knew something from Lucius...

The matter of turning against Malfoy will not be so fast, and Voldemort may not know that three of his Horcruxes have been destroyed.

The more souls split, the weaker the connection between souls becomes.

But continue to destroy, Voldemort will know sooner or later, which is why Ivan did not find out and destroy all Horcruxes in one go.

At the same time, this also means that Malfoy will be unlucky sooner or later.

The pain from Harry's scar came and went so quickly that no one else noticed.

At this moment, they were all serving the food, while rejoicing that Harry and Ivan had escaped.

Fred and Jocha were still singing, and Hermione and Ginny were muttering something under their breath.

"I guess Dumbledore will definitely come tonight, you know, and celebrate with us." Ron said happily.

Chapter 898 Prefect

"I don't think he'll be able to come, Ron," said Mrs. Weasley, placing a large plate of roast chicken in front of Harry. "He's really busy at the moment, but Arthur told me Kingsley was coming tonight, Remus and the others are also here, so we can celebrate on a small scale."

Busyness is still the norm in the Order of the Phoenix. In the next few days, everyone who comes here will be in a hurry.

Even Bill was tasked with not being able to help make broomsticks.

In fact, Harry soon discovered that living in the anti-Voldemort headquarters was not at all as fun and exciting as he had originally thought.

Although members of the Order of the Phoenix came and went regularly, sometimes staying to eat, sometimes just staying for a few minutes to exchange a few whispers, Mrs Weasley made sure that none of them heard of it.

Public opinion from the outside world was also calm. After a big stumble in the trial, Fudge suddenly became honest.

He seems to finally understand that the more he does, the more mistakes he makes, or a new conspiracy is brewing.

In short, Fudge returned to the old way before, and began to slander Dumbledore, Ivan, and Harry through the "Daily Prophet", trying to discredit them, but this time the media on the market is no longer all one-sided article.

Ivan's "Hogwarts Magic News" was full of bad reviews about Fudge, which attracted a large number of readers.

This is a collision of two completely different voices, and no one can defeat the other for the time being.

To be honest, ordinary people in the wizarding world seem to be more willing to believe in Dumbledore than Fudge.

However, Voldemort's resurrection and return is an exception, and no one wants to believe it.

They thought Dumbledore might be out of his depth, but Fudge was actually worse than him...

Just like Lupine told Ivan, why Fudge won the election was not because of how good he was, but because his competitors were worse than him. This is actually a comparison of who is worse than who That's the nature of the game, the campaign.

They don't need to worry about these things. Under Aiwen's guidance, a few people made a black, thick and big broom with peace of mind.

Hermione and Ginny have already drawn up the design, but there are still many difficulties in turning it into a real thing.

In addition, Aiwen is still sorting out the fighting skills and spells that should be taught to them.

He found that except for himself and Hermione, everyone didn't even know the common dueling spells, so he had to help them learn the basics.

Harry and the Weasley family are not bad, and many adult wizards may not even be able to use the Iron Armor Charm.

It sounds funny, but it's true...

As for training according to the Auror method, they are still a little far behind, and it will take some time to start.

And just like that, it was the last day of the holiday.

Ivan was drawing runes on the parchment and designing the broom sensor device, which was the hardest part. Beside him, Harry was cleaning Hedwig's feces on the top of the closet. At this moment, Ron took three An envelope went into the bedroom.

"The bibliography is here, just delivered." He said, throwing Ivan and Harry's faith at them both, "I was downstairs with Ginny just now, a group of owls rushed in, this year is too slow, I I thought they had forgotten it, it came earlier in previous years!"

Ai Wen opened the envelope. He will be in the fourth grade at the beginning of the new semester. There are two pieces of parchment inside the envelope: one is to remind him that school will start on September 9 as usual, and the other tells him which books he needs for the next school year. and what is needed.

Apart from the normal items, nothing new, only the Defense Against the Dark Arts class needs to add new textbooks.

This is an obvious thing, every new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor has a different set of textbooks.

"Only two new books," said Harry, reading his list, "Standard Spells, Fifth Grade, by Miranda Goshawk, and The Theory of Defense Against Magic, by Wilbert Slinka .”

With a snap, Fred and George Apparated and suddenly appeared beside them.

"We're wondering who ordered Slinka's book," Fred said softly.

"Because it means that Dumbledore has found a new teacher for Defense Against the Dark Arts," said George.

"It's time to find it, too," said Fred.

"What do you mean?" Harry said suspiciously, jumping down to land beside them.

"Oh, a few weeks ago we used our telescopic ears to overhear Mum and Dad's conversation," said Fred. People who have tried so hard."

"Looking at what happened to those five teachers in the past, it's not surprising, is it?" George said.

"One was fired, one was forced to resign, one died, one had his memory erased, and one was locked in a box for half a year." Harry counted them one by one, "Yeah, I understand you meaning."

This position is cursed by Voldemort, whoever takes over is unlucky, and this year it's Umbridge's turn.

"That's right, no one dares to accept this position, and I don't know who has the guts." Fred said, leaning over to Ivan's side, "Ivan, is your induction device designed yet? I can't wait to try it Riding a new broom!"

"It will take a while, and I still have to think about some places." Ivan said.

"As long as it can be designed before the game starts," George said. "Hey, Ron, what's the matter with you?"

Ron didn't answer, and several people turned their heads to look.

Ron stood there motionless, with his mouth slightly open, staring blankly at the letter Hogwarts had given him.

"What's going on?" Fred asked curiously, walking around behind Ron and looking over his shoulder at the parchment.

Immediately, Fred opened his mouth wide in surprise.

"Prefect?!" He swallowed hard, staring at the letter in disbelief, "Prefect?!"

George rushed forward, snatched the envelope from Ron's other hand, turned it upside down, and something red and gold fell into his palm.

He was also immediately stimulated, his eyes widened.

"Impossible," said George in a low voice.

"It must have been a mistake!" Fred snatched the letter from Ron and held it high in the light, as if to check the watermark on it. "Who in their right mind would choose Ron as the letter?" Where's the prefect?"

The twins turned their heads in unison, all four eyes fixed on Harry at the same time.

"We thought it must be you!" said Fred.

From the tone of his voice, it sounded like Harry had tricked them somehow.

"Yes, we thought Dumbledore would definitely choose you!" George said angrily.

"Yeah, you've done so much," said Fred.

"Ron is not bad, he was a school warrior last semester!" Ivan said, and Ron's letter reached him.

He saw that Ron was still immersed in the shocking news and didn't react.

Chapter 899 Prefect Ron

The prefect is the end of Hogwarts' special management system, which can only be held by students above the fifth grade.

Prefects, as the name suggests, are the top managers of a grade in the school.

But in Hogwarts, the prefects have much more rights, and they don't just manage students of the same grade.

Each Hogwarts house selects a man and a woman as prefects in the fifth year of the year, and continues to hold this position in the sixth and seventh years.

In other words, each college will have 6 prefects at the same time, and there are 24 in the whole school.

They assist the professors in managing the students, maintaining order, conveying various notices and activities in a timely manner, and organizing students to participate.

In other words, the prefects have become different from ordinary students and become members of the school management.

Prefects have the right to deduct points from students. Although the deans of each college will check these deductions, they rarely do so.

Unless the students are very dissatisfied with the reasons for the deduction of points by the prefects, it is hard to say whether they will succeed in appealing to them.

But there is one thing, there is absolutely no good end to offending a prefect.

In Hogwarts, who doesn't break the rules.

No one wants to, there is a person next to you who can deduct points and always stares at you.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, young wizards are unwilling to offend the prefects, and they have great rights.

In addition to deducting points, prefects also have many special benefits, such as the prefect carriage on the Hogwarts Express, as well as the bathroom for prefects, and even the house-elf will provide special individual services for prefects... …

For those with ambition and desire for power, the prefects are the first step for them to establish their own power.

They will make full use of this status to exert influence among students of the same level and lower grades. This influence will still be effective even after graduating from Hogwarts. Not to mention, the prefects themselves have special small groups .

In this regard, Slytherin students have always done the best and can maximize this influence.

It is said that after the opening ceremony every year, the students of other colleges go back to sleep soundly, but the students of Slytherin all gather in the common room to let the freshmen elect the prefects of their age.

These prefects who are not recognized by the school, also known as hidden prefects, are the managers of the Slytherin students.

The prefects go one step further, and they are the chairmen of the male and female student unions, which is also the highest position that students can hold.

The president of the student union is selected from all the students in the school, one male and one female, and the general term of office is only one year, and they are all students who are about to graduate from the seventh grade.

The president of the student union has the right to manage the prefects and even participate in the daily decision-making activities of the school.

The Hogwarts Board of Trustees meets each year with the new Head Boys and Girls to hear their advice about the school.

Generally speaking, the president of the student union is elected from among the prefects, but there are exceptions. Harry’s father was directly promoted from an ordinary student to the chairman of the student union. In history, even a little wizard who was not in the seventh grade became the chairman of the student union example.

But whether it is the selection of the prefect or the chairman of the student union, one principle must be followed, that is, the best students in the same grade and in the whole school.

That's why everyone was surprised that Ron became a prefect.

Aside from being a Warrior last year, there isn't much he can do on a day-to-day basis in school.

As Fred said, who in their right mind would elect Ron to be a prefect?

It can be seen that Dumbledore really did it with good intentions!

"Yeah, our little Ron is still a Hogwarts warrior." Fred said disapprovingly.

The Triwizard Tournament became a joke, and the warriors that everyone envied had nothing to commend them.

"I suppose it must have been those outlandish remarks that slowed Harry down," George continued.

"Yeah!" Fred said slowly, looking at Harry who hadn't reacted yet, "Yeah, you've caused too much trouble, buddy. Hey, it's a good thing, at least you two There's one guy in the middle that they prioritize."

"If you wait until next year, there will be no other people. Aiwen must be the prefect of their age, and maybe he will be the chairman of the Boys Student Union."
