In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

As for how this public trial will be conducted, Jon actually discussed it with Dumbledore before he left with Lily from the UK.

Apart from the execution and how to conduct the trial, the most certain consensus between him and Dumbledore is that this public trial must not be left to everyone as just a blood conflict. Pure bloods are judged by pure bloods, and as long as they are pure bloods, they are guilty. , as long as they are oppressed, they have the impression of kindness.

This is obviously wrong, because there is actually no shortage of pure-blood wizards in both the Order of the Phoenix and the Wuping line. Although they are only a minority, their emotions must still be considered.

It is just a trial of pure blood, or the target of the public trial is only on blood, then maybe the pure bloods in the Order of the Phoenix will not say anything when watching this public trial, but afterward, as long as there is a little bit of something like Statements such as "Everyone with blood is a villain" will definitely give them a chill.

And through this public trial, Dumbledore and the others have to confirm one thing for all the students and even the wizards in the outside world.

What they are prepared to overturn and defeat is the blood theory, not pure pure blood wizards!

This is very important, because once the target is wrong, even if they win the final victory, it is very likely to set off another confrontation.

At that time, purebloods will become the bottom of society, while hemp races will become the top. History will repeat itself in an upside-down way, until maybe one day it will turn around again.

As for hemps like Henderson, they are obviously accomplices in the blood theory, and in most cases, the hemps living in the basement of Hogwarts Castle do not have access to many pure-blood students. These superior men feel ashamed to even breathe the same air as them. Much of their oppression and management is achieved by cultivating second devils, people like Henderson.

So for some things, it would be more shocking to the purebloods to judge purebloods than to pull out people like Henderson.

Slughorn, who was sitting in the audience, could naturally think about these things clearly, and after all the charges were confirmed, Henderson naturally did not escape the ending of death.

In the fury, he became the second victim of the gallows.

Slughorn looked at Henderson's still swaying body, and he didn't know why he suddenly thought that his previous ideas were wrong.

He thought that if Voldemort was really defeated in the future, the magical world would return to the state it was in before he began to rule more than ten years ago, but now he felt that if this situation really continued, the magical world would Go in a whole new direction.

A new direction that no one has seen before and no one can predict!

Of course, this public trial will not end just after the trial of two people. There are many people lining up behind and being pulled up to the high platform one by one.

There were purebloods, mixedbloods and hemps among these people. Most of them committed heinous crimes, and the gallows erected on the high platform also played its best role, hanging 8 former castle residents. s student!

The oldest among these people, like Henderson and Flint, are already 18 years old, while the youngest is only 15 years old.

She was the eldest daughter of a pure-blood family, and she was also one of the worst of the eight people who were hanged. She already had the lives of two hemp slaves in her hands!

This was not instigated by her parents. It was just out of jealousy and hatred that the two girls were prettier than her, so they burned their faces with spells and killed their families in front of them. I wanted to experiment on how to drive a normal person crazy.

Although 17 years old is considered an adult among wizards, there has never been a "So-and-So Protection Law" in the magical world, let alone this is during wartime, and this kind of behavior extremely touches the bottom line of human morality.

No one who was brought to a high platform after that was as anti-human as the first eight.

Although the nature is equally bad, for example, the two pure-blood witches who previously served as witnesses to testify against Flint's crimes, persecuted Asia, and served as Freud's accomplices, because they are not the masterminds and are willing to testify later to make up for their mistakes, they can at least be exempted from the crime. One died.

But obviously after the first eight public trials, the emotions of all the students in the audience were aroused. They looked at everyone on the stage as if they were bad guys with heinous crimes, like these two pure-blood witches. Before Mag had finished explaining their crimes, there was a sound of "hang him" in the audience.

The two of them were so frightened that they almost fainted on the spot. They were paralyzed on the high platform and could not stand up straight.

Fortunately, the role of McGonagall, Flitwick, and Lupin on the stage was to avoid such a situation. In the end, of course, the two witches were not sentenced to death, but were sentenced to 15 years in prison.

This means that although they followed Freud and tortured Mazong, they did not kill anyone. Asiya did not really die in the end, otherwise it would not have only been 15 years.

Draco also watched all the public trials.

He was not selected as the subject of the public trial. In the final analysis, he was a bad guy with a bad character, but he did not have or had the courage to do so many evil things.

Lucius's own hands were dirty, but out of protection for his family, he did not let his son touch those things. And because of the existence of the house elf Dobby, the Malfoy family did not accept hemp seeds as slaves. This leaves him with little room for error.

Therefore, after being brought to France, he panicked and confessed everything he had done in Hogwarts Castle without any threats. In fact, he only occasionally mocked and insulted some mixed-race people, but no matter how serious they were, they were gone.

Of course, in his case, there is no need to go to public trial. He only needs to write a private examination and then be assigned to undergo labor reform for a period of time.

But after watching the public trial today, it still had a huge impact on Draco, especially when he saw those faces that were not unfamiliar to him, hanging on the gallows, kicking their legs feebly. , the scene where he finally stopped breathing completely made him feel that his legs were weak even when he was sitting on the chair, and his body could not help but tremble.

Different from the original work, when Britain was completely ruled by Voldemort, Draco was exposed to more complete blood theory education from an early age.

Just like the purebreds who were brought to Hogwarts Castle were taught that they were inferior people and slaves from an early age, the new generation of noble pure-bloods were also indoctrinated from an early age that they were superior and inherently stronger than others. Be noble.

Before meeting Jon, Draco had no doubts about this theory. Even after meeting Jon, he always comforted himself in his heart that Jon was just an outlier among the hemp species.

But today, when five familiar pure-blood corpses among the eight hanged people were dangling in front of his eyes, the concepts he had been molded in the previous fifteen years were truly shattered!

What is inherently noble?

On that gallows, blood, identity, status, everything is false, whether you have blood or not, you will be hanged in the anger and condemnation of the public!

Of course Draco had no memory of Voldemort taking over his body that day in the castle. The only memory left in his mind was what Jon said to him before he fell into coma. He said that if it happened later, If Wu Pingxian wins, then his father will definitely die, but he still has the possibility of living.

At that time, he felt very angry, extremely angry, but after hearing the guilt of those who were hanged today, he knew that what Jon said at that time was correct.

Just because Lucius's men were stained with the blood of members of the Order of the Phoenix, there was no way he would still be alive no matter what.

Unless he had accomplished the great feat of assassinating Voldemort now and liberating the whole of Britain, Dumbledore would not be able to keep him even if he wanted to, not to mention that Dumbledore had no reason to keep him at all.

And Draco himself knew very well that with his father's lazy personality, he would never make any risky assassination before the situation became clear. This meant that almost as long as Dumbledore's side won, he would be killed. Death is certain!

Draco thought of this, and at the same time he saw the hemp students sitting on the chairs, covering their faces and crying after each public trial.

He looked at the students who were about the same age as him, with a somewhat complicated mood.

He had never regarded the so-called "Mudblood" as a normal person before, because this was the education he had received since childhood.

And only today did he truly know that these people who were humbled in the theory of blood can also cry and laugh. Apart from their different origins, they are inherently inferior to him in no way.

Jon and Lily are back in the spider tail alley.

What medicine did Snape make for Voldemort? Even if they have a list of medicines, they currently have no way to find out more information through this.

Sometimes potions are even more miraculous than magic. Let alone vague materials, even if it is a specific list of materials, no potion master would dare to confirm a certain potion based on this list.

Because in addition to those potion formulas that have been explored and explored for thousands of years, new potions appear in the magic world almost every once in a while.

Not to mention that the potion Voldemort needed must be unusual, otherwise it wouldn't be so hidden, even hiding the second Voldemort in his body.

Therefore, it was obviously unwise to find out what the potion was in this situation. They only needed to catch Snape again, and then they could ask any questions.

Besides, regardless of whether there was a clue about the potion or not, Lily would definitely only be chasing Snape.

"After Snape was brought to France, shouldn't we have fed him Veritaserum for interrogation? Why weren't we asked about this potion?"

Walking by the river near Spider Tail Alley, Jon asked doubtfully.

He felt that even if Dumbledore wanted to do something, he couldn't have planned it at that time.

Lily just said calmly.

"His achievements in Occlumency are very high. This has been verified by our people after bringing him back from England. With this ability, as long as he wants to, he can not only use Legilimency, but also vomit. The real agent can also be circumvented and some false information can be answered."

Jon nodded thoughtfully.

He himself was highly accomplished in Occlumency, but he only knew that this magic was resistant to Legilimency. He had never done any experiments on Veritaserum, so he didn't know this.

"Then Professor, how can you be sure that Snape is probably still staying in this city and not going anywhere else?" Jon asked.

Lily did not answer Jon's question directly, but asked instead.

"Do you know why Snape took the pseudonym Prince?"

Jon shook his head. He obviously didn't know much about Snape's past. He only knew that Snape once gave himself the title of "Half-Blood Prince" when he was young. The word "Prince" is used as a first or last name. If so, it would be Prince.

When he first heard the pseudonym Prince, he thought that this old batman was still obsessed with being a middle-aged man and still wanted others to call him Prince.

"His mother's name was Erin Prince, and that was her mother's last name."

After hearing Lily's words, a look of surprise appeared on Jon's face.

But Lily didn't show any shyness about her past when she was a child, and continued.

"He and I have known each other since childhood. He even told me the first time I knew about magic, wizards and the existence of Hogwarts. It was near this spider tail alley. There used to be a lawn there."

"His mother is a pure-blood wizard and a very gentle woman, but his family is not well-off. His father hates everything about wizards and has violent tendencies, so at that time he actually had no feelings for his father. He has hatred and doesn’t like his last name of Snape, so he secretly calls himself Prince.”

Jon blinked.

"so?"

"So he actually still has feelings for his mother. This has not disappeared because he joined the Death Eaters. Otherwise, he would not still be using the name Prince when he chooses a pseudonym now."

Lily looked at the large chimney in the distance that was still spewing black mist into the sky, and said softly.

"So, I conclude that if he really stays in England and does not go back to his master, Snape will definitely stay in this city. The most dangerous place is the safest, and besides, this is where he and his His mother’s house.”

Her analysis was well-founded, and Jon also thought it made sense.

"But this city is not small. Where should we start?"

"Don't be so anxious because you worry about me. I've been waiting for so many years, and I won't be impatient just for these few days. It's already so late. Let's find a place to stay first."
