Hogwarts: I am Voldemort

"Twenty-three days have passed since Colin's murder, and the great white wizard has yet to give a convincing answer.

The trust of parents is being eroded little by little, and the directors openly question whether the 112-year-old Dumbledore still has enough energy and ability to assume the important and responsible position of principal..."

On the Gryffindor table, one of the twins held up the Daily Prophet and read today's headlines.

"Stop, George, and ignore those damn papers."

Percy stood up angrily, took the newspaper from George's hand, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it next to the pumpkin soup.

"It's really bullshit," said the other twin. "They can't do anything but cause trouble."

"Who did what?" Someone asked on the Slytherin table.

"I happen to know who did what."

George stood up, pointed to the long Slytherin table and said, "The Slytherin students ran away, haha. If they didn't do this, why did they run away?"

These words made the Slytherin students angry, and many little snakes turned red-eyed, but they had no reason to refute.

The long Slytherin table that used to be loose was now sparse, which proved everything.

"What do you gain from baseless accusations?" asked a Slytherin prefect, "Red-haired Weasley."

George was not angry. He combed his hair and looked very proud.

The students in the Eagle House and the Badger House also looked at Slytherin with unkind eyes.

Especially Badger House, they have the most Muggles in the house.

And now there are rumors in the academy that purebloods from Slytherin are secretly purging Muggle wizards.

In short, Slytherin has been isolated.

"There were a lot of people at the door."

A shout broke the silence of the auditorium.

"What a lot of people?" Percy asked loudly.

"You will find out when you come."

The shouting student left a word, then turned and ran outside.

Many students followed out out of curiosity, as did some professors.

Ginny mingled with the crowd and followed them to the front of the castle.

In the morning light, there was still some mist blocking the view, but the figures in the mist were still visible.

"Who is he?" Professor McGonagall came out and asked.

She took out her wand. It was obvious that everyone was a little nervous at this time of year.

"It's the students, Professor McGonagall."

Hagrid's voice came from the mist, "They are back, twenty-seven of them."

Mag froze in place in surprise, not knowing what happened.

"Do I need to inform the Headmaster? McGonagall." Headmaster Flitwick asked in a low voice.

"Let's take a look at the situation first," Professor McGonagall replied.

Following the conversation between the two, a group of people walked out of the fog.

The leader was Malfoy, whose hair was meticulously combed back. One step behind him was Hermione, and behind him...

Almost all the Slytherin students who had transferred to another school were present there.

"We heard there was something wrong at the school."

Draco Malfoy scanned the crowd with a sullen expression, pausing briefly at Percy's position, but then moved away.

"Draco, who asked you to come back?" Professor McGonagall suppressed the shock in her heart and stepped forward and asked.

"Ourselves, Professor."

Draco said solemnly, "There is a problem in the school, and through the letters, I didn't see any students coming forward and taking any action. This worries me, Professor, we are back to organize students to protect themselves."

"The professor will protect you. There is no problem in Hogwarts. You..."

"If there were no problems, Professor, Colin wouldn't be dead."

Draco interrupted Professor McGonagall rudely, but before he could say something sharper, Hermione stood up.

"Professor, we will be with Hogwarts. The school needs us." Hermione's voice was not loud, but she was very determined.

Professor McGonagall opened her mouth. She wanted to refute, and she also hoped that these students would not come back to cause trouble - or in other words, come back and put themselves in danger.

But Hermione's firm eyes showed her the children's firm will.

"Some people suspect that we Slytherins did it, and I feel ashamed of it."

Draco was obviously prepared. He took a step forward and said in an angry voice, "Hogwarts is one school, not four. A school co-founded by four great founders, not three."

His eyes were as sharp as knives, something he had never seen before.

"Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Gryffindor, none of the three founders would have allowed you to slander Slytherin like this if they were still alive."

Percy swallowed, gritted his teeth, and said nothing.

"If you don't believe Slytherin, I would like to express my position on behalf of Slytherin House. I hope that we can move into the lounges of other houses and let you supervise us to prove our innocence."

Draco's words fell and he immediately won applause from the Slytherins - they had had enough grievances.

"Draco, no one doubts Slytherin. This was not done by students, we can be sure of that." Professor McGonagall said.

"My dear Dean, what do you think?" Draco looked at Snape, who had been silent, "Are you willing to see Slytherin students criticized behind the back by the other three houses?"

While he was speaking, Hermione was already walking back to her house in silence.

This expresses her attitude towards returning, which is not exactly the same as Slytherin.

Like she said, she wanted to be with Hogwarts, but that didn't mean she wanted to stand for Slytherin.

"Why did you come back with them?" Ron whispered dissatisfied.

Percy glared angrily at his stupid brother, gave Hermione a comforting look, and then looked at Professor Snape.

"A strong man doesn't need to defend himself, Draco, that's a coward's statement."

Snape said in his characteristic tone, his voice hoarse than usual, "Besides, you have used your courage in the wrong place, Draco, and you should not have come back."

"We should come back."

Draco took a step forward again, "Headmaster Dumbledore went to see me. I think he wanted the support of me and other Slytherins, including Miss Hermione, of course."

The students and most of the professors' eyes widened in surprise. Obviously, they didn't know what Dumbledore had done.

"Now that we're back, let's go to the castle first. We'll talk about other things later." Professor McGonagall obviously didn't want Draco to say more, so she said anxiously.

"Let's go home, Slytherin children." Draco waved, causing the Slytherins behind and in front of him to cheer.

Snape glanced at him with narrowed eyes, his gaze was quite meaningful.

Draco looked at him, with a hint of imperceptible pride in the same empty gaze.

I, Draco Malfoy, am back in glory.

No one can stop me from having power, not even Dumbledore.

He thought this and glanced at Percy with disdain.

The two looked at each other in the air, tit for tat.
