Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 1320 Fear

Accompanied by a harsh creaking sound, the closed door of the auditorium was pushed open through a gap at some point. Delis followed Filch through the half-opened door and noticed the strange atmosphere at the back-to-school dinner.

Snape, who was sitting on the professor's chair, frowned and looked at the visitor, wondering why Aurors appeared in Hogwarts.

However, Snape still stood up amidst the whispers of the students and called Delis to the small room next to the auditorium hall.

Delis quickly followed suit. The strange looks from the students in the auditorium made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"The Daily Prophet plans to interview Hogwarts students?"

Snape stared at the Auror in front of him, repeating what the other person had said expressionlessly.

"When will interviews with the Daily Prophet also require permission from the Ministry of Magic?" Professor McGonagall, who followed him into the room, sneered sharply.

She was in a bad mood.

Because Hagrid told her that a girl was forcibly taken away by Death Eaters when the train arrived at the station.

She really couldn't understand why that stupid girl didn't want to go with "Harry Potter" and had to come to Hogwarts to be captured by the Death Eaters again?

"Understood, I will arrange for a few students to be interviewed by reporters from the Daily Prophet." Snape guessed what they wanted to do and simply nodded in agreement.

"Let me arrange this matter." Professor McGonagall took the initiative to take over the task. These small matters are usually handled by the deputy minister.

"No need, Alecto can handle this."

Snape did not give Professor McGonagall a chance and returned directly to the auditorium to continue attending the unfinished banquet, leaving a rather angry Professor McGonagall behind.

After the opening dinner, Snape, who had just returned to the principal's office, received an urgent notice to attend an impromptu meeting.

It was rare to encounter such a situation. After all, he was mainly responsible for Hogwarts, and he didn't quite understand a simple attack. Why did he need to hold an impromptu meeting for this?

After rushing to attend the impromptu meeting, Snape did not see the Dark Lord. There were only a group of loudly talking Death Eaters around the conference table.

"Severus, please take a seat first. The Dark Lord will be here soon." Yaxley saw Snape standing at the door of the hall and motioned for him to take a seat first.

"What are you doing?" Snape asked with a frown.

"It was just an accident."

While speaking, Yaxley suddenly stood up from his seat and bowed his head slightly in respect to the figure who appeared behind Snape.

The originally noisy auditorium suddenly became quiet, and all the Death Eaters stood up from their seats.

Sensing the change in the surrounding atmosphere, Snape took the initiative to step aside and bowed his head slightly in salute to Voldemort.

After Voldemort walked to the main seat and sat down, he directly asked Snape beside him, "How is it at Hogwarts?"

"As you wish, most of the students are already under control. However, there are still a small number of children from wizarding families who choose to drop out of school." After meeting Voldemort's scarlet eyes, Snape took the initiative to give in and move away. Sight, suggested, "I think that small group should belong to the rare die-hards, and it's best to teach them a profound lesson."

"Pierce."

Voldemort looked at the current Minister of Magic.

"Master, I will deal with this matter immediately after I return."

Piers Thicknesse didn't look like a Minister of Magic at all, he looked like a complete bitch.

"I heard that Harry Potter attacked the people who were searching the train this afternoon." Voldemort tilted his head at Yaxley. This was the main reason why he rushed back to England from abroad tonight.

"Yes, Master, they said they saw at least ten Harry Potters in total." Yaxley did not dare to look directly into the Dark Lord's glasses, lowering his head uneasily and said, "They came very suddenly, and the person responsible for searching the train... "

"You know that's not what I'm asking about." Voldemort interrupted dissatisfied.

"We currently cannot rule out that Harry Potter intends to use this to expand his influence so that..." Yaxley glanced at Voldemort secretly, lowered his voice and said, "...to lead everyone to rebel against the master."

Voldemort was noncommittal and turned to look at his other right-hand man, "Severus, do you seem to have any unique insights?"

"Master, I think those Harry Potter stories are probably all fake." Snape said his guess expressionlessly after noticing Voldemort's gaze.

"Fake?"

A hint of imperceptible irritation flashed across Yaxley's face, and Snape's words almost denied his guess, and simply called him a fool in public.

"The Order of the Phoenix doesn't have a so-called mark. If there is, it's a phoenix, not a griffon. As far as I know, it's the patron saint of Albert Anderson." Snape turned to Yaxley, who looked ugly. Taking a glance at it, he continued, "Moreover, I heard people say that it is the badge of the Defense Association, which means that the attacker is a member of the Defense Association. Recently I also heard that the activities of the Defense Association are very ordinary. This is most likely Albert's. "Anderson's Conspiracy."

After Snape noticed the Dark Lord's bad mood, he paused for a moment, and after confirming that the Dark Lord was not angry, he continued to tell the information he knew.

"As far as I know, that Mudblood formed the Defense Association when Dumbledore was still alive. He seemed to have anticipated such a day, so he planned to use this to resist his master."

After listening to Snape's analysis, he had not paid much attention to Voldemort in the UK recently and quickly figured out the situation in the UK.

That sinister Mudblood brought the Ministry of Magic to the forefront last time, and is he planning to push Harry Potter to the table this time?

This is indeed very similar to what he would do, but the only thing that confuses Voldemort is that Harry Potter is not Scrimgeour, and he does not have the same power as the Ministry of Magic to use. Could it be that the mudblood wants to use the Order of the Phoenix? ?

Voldemort denied this possibility.

Since losing Dumbledore, the Order of the Phoenix has become a subpar organization with no power to fight against them.

Even Voldemort couldn't figure out what Albert wanted to do for a moment.

However, the more unclear he became, the more fearful he became to Voldemort. He believed that the other party would not waste their efforts and must be brewing some terrible conspiracy, which made Voldemort instinctively feel that the situation was not good.

"Find Harry Potter if you can. If necessary, I allow you to deal with him on the spot." Voldemort's words caused quite a stir in the hearts of the Death Eaters. None of them expected that the Dark Lord would actually allow them to kill him. Harry Potter.

"Compared to Harry Potter, that damn Mudblood is more difficult to deal with. I have to admit that I did underestimate him before." Voldemort's eyes flashed with danger.

Especially after the last battle with Albert in the waters of Azkaban, Voldemort became more and more interested in getting rid of Albert, and even unknowingly surpassed Harry Potter.

Deep in Voldemort's heart, he would never allow a character similar to Dumbledore to appear again, especially when the Mudblood in front of him was more terrifying than Dumbledore. He never forgot that the other person had just turned twenty and was far from reaching his peak. , there is endless potential in the future.

This made Voldemort even more eager to obtain the legendary invincible wand. As long as he had that invincible wand, he would have the confidence to completely eliminate the mudblood the next time he saw it.

It's not that Voldemort is afraid of Albert Anderson, but that the Death Eaters really can't withstand his scourge.

Voldemort may not care about the life and death of the Death Eaters, but once the Death Eaters suffer heavy losses, even he will be troubled. No matter how powerful he is, he still needs someone to help control the Ministry of Magic.

"Master, maybe I have a chance to find the location of the mudblood, or the location of the Defense Association headquarters."

After getting Voldemort's permission, Yaxley revealed a series of his recent arrangements.

"Ever since I discovered that people from the Defense Association like to loot our people, I have asked them to carry some items with tracking spells on them so that after the items are snatched away by those shameless people, they can follow those items that have been cast on the spells. Items find each other’s location.”

"You did very well."

Voldemort looked at Yaxley, quite satisfied with his left and right hands.

"One more thing, Master." Yaxley puffed up his chest and reported, "We have captured old man Hopkins's whole family. I think he will surrender soon. As long as we can disable Scrimgere's The shelter under the control of the family members of the Aurors, I believe that those Aurors will truly bow to their masters and compromise, and they will not dare to continue to play tricks on each other.

The Death Eaters looked at Yaxley in surprise, not expecting that the other party had done so many things quietly.

"Severus, do you have anything to add?" Yaxley raised the corners of his mouth proudly and looked at Snape.

"I suggest that it's best to overestimate that mudblood as much as possible." Snape hesitated for a moment, then reminded him, "If he was really so easy to kill, he would have died long ago. However, he is still alive..."
