Hogwarts: I am Voldemort

"The list in my hand has been handed over. The exposed persons should not be on this hunting list."

Lucius organized his thoughts and spoke first.

Neville, Crouch Jr. and others nodded unconsciously after hearing this, while Draco, who was sitting in the corner, frowned after hearing his father's words.

Because of the list, both he and his father had to keep a low profile.

Many people who didn't know the truth even thought that he and his father had betrayed the Dark Lord.

How can it be.

The list that the Dark Lord gave Lucius was not a list of all wizards, but only a part of the list of wizards that could be discarded.

And what can be given up is not because they want them to die, but because most of them are Muggles.

Even if they are not Muggles, there are many like the Weasley family who are close to Muggles.

There would not be many problems with releasing such a list of wizards, and even these wizards themselves have long been working in MI7.

But none of this can be said to the outside world, which has resulted in the current situation in the Malfoy family that they are not human beings inside and outside.

"They don't need us to protect them. I think the focus of protection should be on the Death Eaters and their families." Crouch Jr. thought for a moment and said.

Lucius nodded and acknowledged Crouch Jr.'s words.

"Neville, what do you think?" Lucius asked Neville again.

"Don't you think that the information about the location of the Lestrange family is a bit strange?" Neville did not discuss this issue, but instead asked a question that made everyone frown.

"You mean...a thorough investigation?" Crouch Jr. asked hesitantly.

"Thorough investigation." Neville nodded and said firmly.

After hearing Neville's words, everyone couldn't help but frown.

"Neville, during this period, we still need to ensure internal unity. If..."

Lucius wanted to persuade, not to shake the internal unity.

"Then investigate secretly."

Neville refused to compromise and looked at Draco, "How about you take the lead in this matter and form a Death Eater picket?"

"I?"

Draco was a little surprised and looked at Neville in surprise.

"Yes."

Neville nodded and said, "I thought of a way before, which is to find the informer through ritual dance."

"Sacrificial dance..."

Draco murmured, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Using the brightness of the Dark Mark to determine whether that person is pious?"

"Yes."

Neville glanced at Draco appreciatively and said, "This matter must be done carefully enough, with a wide enough network of contacts, and for some special reasons, it will be taken for granted even if it often appears at the sacrifice site."

After all these conditions, everyone finally understood why he chose Draco.

Delicate thinking and extensive connections are the standard traits of almost all children of the Malfoy family.

As for special reasons, he is just enough.

Because of the list, the Malfoy family has been questioned as traitors for more than a day or two. Lucius also deliberately deepened the misunderstanding, so he acted as if he had rebelled.

As a result, Draco's position was very embarrassing.

He was able to gather many people in the past because of his loyalty to Voldemort and his pure-blood family.

But now that he is no longer loyal, and the wizarding world is in turmoil, his attraction to those wizarding children will naturally be greatly reduced.

Under such circumstances, he often worships the Dark Mark to show his loyalty, which is indeed not out of the ordinary.

"How do you describe the positioning of the pickets, their personnel, and whether they are permanent or not?"

Mind turning, Draco saw the benefit, but he wanted more.

"There is no organization that does not need introspection. The picket is the source of introspection for Death Eaters. It is permanent. Even if the Dark Lord returns, I will recommend that it be retained."

Neville's courage was once again demonstrated, "As for the personnel, it cannot exceed one-tenth of the total number of Death Eaters, and among the tenth, there must be at least nine-tenths of non-staff personnel, okay?"

Draco's eyes widened in surprise.

Even though most of them are non-staff, the number is still staggering.

picket?

I'm afraid Neville's purpose is not just a picket team, this is simply a spy camp.

If such a team was really formed, the troubles within the Death Eaters would probably never escape Neville's eyes and ears.

No wonder he dared to say that even if the Dark Lord returned, he would recommend keeping it.

If this thing is done, the Dark Lord will probably keep it himself without Neville's suggestion.

"Then I don't have any other questions. I'll do this." Draco's slightly pale face turned red. He had been having a hard time recently and finally had something to do. He was indeed a little excited.

"In addition to detecting traitors, I also need the pickets to increase their control over the Gaunt Library, not in a superficial way. I think you understand what I mean." Neville said again.

This was a bit convoluted. Draco thought for a while before tentatively asking: "You mean to develop some Death Eater pickets among Muggles?"

Wizards and Muggles have reached an apparent reconciliation, and the Gaunt Library is a landmark building of reconciliation.

Wizards can come and go freely in the Gaunt Library without being interrogated, and Muggles can also enter it by applying.

That's why Draco understood Neville's meaning so well.

"For a bigger picture, Draco, try the spies from MI7 or the court wizards. Of course Muggles can do it, but their help to us is too little."

Neville's words really shocked Draco.

Is it possible to recruit people from MI7 to join the Death Eater pickets?

"Good idea, Neville."

Lucius praised, and then looked at his son, "Nothing is impossible, Draco. Interest can destroy faith, just try it."

He saw his son's doubts, so he reminded him.

Draco finally recovered from the shock, thought about it in disguise, and began to think that this was a feasible thing.

"MI7 may have difficulties. Their people have special memory magic in their brains, but the palace wizard can do it." After thinking carefully, Draco gave his answer.

Neville was not particularly surprised by this.

The palace wizard belongs to the royal family, and his status is passed down from generation to generation. His status is much higher than that of the soldiers of MI7.

Therefore, they are not haunted by any magic.

Just like the Malfoy family, they are loyal to Voldemort, but also maintain contact with the royal family, and will not be abandoned by the royal family.

But the soldiers of MI7 are different. They are more like recruited soldiers, requiring loyalty, bravery, tenacity and many other qualities.

And, they don’t last for generations.

Therefore, MI7 under the rule of the royal family has a strict management method.

And their memories have been cast with extremely special magic, which makes them almost impossible to rebel.

"Anyway, this matter is left to you, Draco. It's up to you to decide what to do."

Neville said finally, giving Draco an encouraging look.

This made Draco a little surprised. Thinking about it, a few years ago, he helped Neville to rescue Neville who was bullied by Ron, but now... time has changed, and it is indeed the case.
