Hogwarts behind-the-scenes big boss

Chapter 87 The Rising Female Politician

After putting Tonks down, Moriarty finally figured out what happened.

He couldn't help but cast an inquiring look at the Carlo brothers and sisters.

Infiltrate Hogwarts?

How dare you!

Even in his heyday, Voldemort did not dare to cause trouble at Hogwarts.

Only after Dumbledore died could Voldemort dare to attack Hogwarts.

Just two Death Eaters, if there is no one in Hogwarts to support them, Moriarty doesn't believe they dare to step into Hogsmeade!

Glancing at the crowd of onlookers, Moriarty was almost certain that the person responsible for the Carlo brothers and sisters was hidden inside.

The words of memory master Lockhart prove that that person is not weak.

But that's all.

Otherwise, why would he want the Carlo brothers and sisters to enter the school? If there is any problem, he might as well solve it himself.

Moriarty and Tonks looked at each other, confirmed each other's intentions, nodded slightly, and Tonks put down her guard and vigilance.

For her, when Moriarty is gone, she must step forward, and when Moriarty returns, Hogwarts will be safe.

But even if it was confirmed that the person responsible for the Carrow brothers and sisters was hiding in Hogwarts, Lockhart did not investigate them one by one.

Although Dumbledore was not present, the professors and young wizards unanimously stated that Hogwarts is a school after all, not an interrogation room of the Ministry of Magic.

Lockhart didn't insist on investigating, and he soon stopped caring about things here.

"cracking--"

A handsome owl flew into the auditorium, it was Moriarty's Poseidon. It was followed by a large group of messenger owls, flying in fluttering.

Poseidon delivers a newspaper to Moriarty, and then the owls find their respective owners.

"Wow, wow, wow..."

Newspapers fell one after another, like a newspaper rain!

"Merlin's beard, there are too many newspapers!"

A seventh-grade little snake lamented that after seven years of schooling, the number of newspapers today is unprecedented.

Tonks had a guess: "Isn't it possible that what happened here has been reported? When did the Daily Prophet's editorial department become so efficient?"

Moriarty, who was the first to get the newspaper, had already read the contents hastily. As he expected, the dementors left without saying goodbye, and the Azkaban prisoner riot had been reported!

At this time, the students also saw the newspaper, and exclamations rang out one after another in the auditorium.

"What? The Azkaban prison break happened again?"

"The Dementors disappeared en masse!"

"Meteorite fell over the North Sea in England?"

"Albus??Dumbledore's key move..."

"The Ministry of Magic has sent Aurors to Azkaban. Currently, there are not enough Aurors!"

Seeing this, Lockhart hurriedly said goodbye and rushed back to the Ministry of Magic with Leon and the Carlo brothers and sisters!

Moriarty thought, this would undoubtedly be a God-given opportunity for Lockhart. From now on, the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic will definitely increase its manpower, and Lockhart can also recruit more Aurors and concentrate more power.

"Moriarty..." Tonks took Moriarty's hand, her fair face filled with eagerness and pleading, and she said, "I also want to go to Azkaban and stand guard."

Moriarty pondered: "Of course I support your decision. There are many classmates who have the same idea as you. When the principal comes back, I will ask Dumbledore for his opinion."...

"I knew you would support me." Tonks smiled happily and happily ran to contact her classmates. There were more than 10 students in the seventh grade who wanted to be Aurors.

At this time, people's hearts were in a state of confusion, and the Carlo brothers and sisters were forgotten by everyone, and everyone was talking about Azkaban.

Professor McGonagall spent a lot of effort to stabilize the order again, and everything returned to the orderly life before.

The house elves served the food three times faster than usual, but the students' minds were obviously not on filling their bellies, and they did not forget to discuss the meal.

Moriarty enjoyed it with peace of mind, and his calm appearance made all the little snakes marvel.

After eating for a while, Jericho couldn't hold it anymore and raised the topic: "Aren't you a little surprised? The dementors have served Azkaban for hundreds of years, how could they suddenly disappear? And they disappeared collectively, all of a sudden.

It’s gone! Whoosh—just like this!”

He made a gesture like a plane flying into the sky, which attracted many people's attention.

"Rather than the reason why the Dementors disappeared, I care more about who can catch the Dementors." Lilith took a sip of oatmeal elegantly and added: "At the very least, we have to find out the whereabouts of the Dementors. This

It’s a great achievement.”

"Pfft..." Cedric almost spit out the beef roll in his mouth, coughed a few times, and said tremblingly: "Who can catch the Dementor? Who? I'm afraid Dumbledore can't do this either!

"

Lilith didn't reply, but her calm look seemed to make her confident.

"Azkaban may be history."

Another one of her words caused the entire Slytherin table to become noisy!

Even Moriarty couldn't help but look sideways.

Lilith's "Justice Law" small group is closely related to the prisoners.

Is she planning to take a hand?

But it is impossible for a Wizengamot judge to accept the legal defense of an Azkaban prisoner.

Lilith looked calm and seemed confident.

There is almost no death penalty in the wizarding world.

Few wizards were sentenced to death and executed immediately.

On the contrary, life imprisonment has become the most serious punishment in the wizarding world - in Azkaban, life imprisonment is the hell in the eyes of all wizards.

The "wizard supremacy" that Lilith upholds is also in line with the "hidden rules of trial" in the magical world.

Lilith, who comes from a legal family and is one of the rule-makers of the Pilivik family, understands the "hidden rules of trial" very well.

As a prison, Azkaban has dual attributes.

On the one hand, it is like a sword of Damocles, hanging over the head of every criminal and wizard who is preparing to commit a crime.

On the other hand, it is a "fig leaf" for the rule makers and judges!

Thinking of this, Lilith's lips curved into a sneer, and she covered it up well by drinking porridge.

Since you don't want to sentence wizards to death, let me give you a legitimate reason.

There used to be Azkaban as a fig leaf - after all, Azkaban was so popular that it was actually a good fig leaf.

Putting prisoners in Azkaban, whether it is the death penalty or not, the prisoners put in Azkaban will definitely live worse than death. This is the consensus of every wizard...

It was this misunderstanding that led to too many loopholes, Sirius escaped, Death Eaters escaped from prison...

And Barty Jr. Crouch!

Lilith was unaware that Barty Jr. was not actually imprisoned in Azkaban.

Barty Crouch Sr. was promoted by the Pilwick family and was a strong contender for the Minister of Magic back then.

Who would doubt him if nothing happened?

It was also the relationship between the two families that Lilith discovered a detail that no one had discovered.

That is Barty Sr. Crouch's wife. Since Barty Jr. was imprisoned, she has rarely been seen in public - the explanation given was that she was too sad because of her son's imprisonment.

But when Lilith visited old Barty's house with her parents, she discovered that the clothes belonging to little Barty were increasing instead of decreasing, and the clothes belonging to Madam were decreasing instead of increasing.

Lilith concluded that there was a ghost here.

The past events emerged, and Lilith's eyes became extremely sharp!

In order to ensure that her idea can be carried out smoothly, she sent two big gifts to the Ministry of Magic and the Wizengamot!

The first step is to follow the clues of Little Barty and investigate further.

The other part will continue with "Azkaban is a fig leaf".

There have been too many scandals in Azkaban. In the past, dementors could be used as shields, but now the dementors have disappeared en masse.

Who will be the caretaker of Azkaban?

Auror?

Absolutely impossible!

Lilith sneered. Wizards pride themselves on being noble and elegant. Who would do such a thing as looking at the door?

Not to mention, when treating prisoners, punishment is inevitable, and wizards do not want to be punishers - they prefer to be judges!

Of course, this matter of punishment should be left to other species, preferably those of humanoid species, so as to reflect the unique status of wizards!

Lilith knows all too well about those people whose power is concentrated in the hands of a small group of people.

At this moment, the Aurors outside Azkaban, as well as the Aurors summoned temporarily, cannot guard Azkaban for a long time.

But what about the prisoners inside?

Azkaban has been cast under a traceless stretching spell, and no one knows how many prisoners there are!

Now that the dementors are gone and wizards can't serve as guards, who cares about the prisoners?

Lilith smiled.

I'm coming!

Justice and law come!

She wants to defend the prisoner's innocence!

Of course this is superficial rhetoric.

In fact, it means reducing the number of prisoners.

Reduce the burden on the Ministry of Magic.

Lilith concluded that the Ministry of Magic would take advantage of the situation and pardon a large number of criminals, leaving only a small number of unpardonable criminals. This would also facilitate management.

It's a decent thing for the Ministry of Magic and justice to do.

To the Ministry of Magic, this means handing over a pillow if you feel sleepy.

As for the law of justice, it has entered the sight of the top level of the wizarding world - in the past, the law of justice was active among the people at the bottom, and most of the services it served were Muggles.

If you do this well, justice and law will take off!

Putting down her knife and fork, Lilith finished eating and left the table, her eyes flashing brightly.

This was the first time she didn't leave with Moriarty after dinner.

"Before fourth grade, I invited you to create a world where wizards are supreme. You refused, but I will never give up."
