Study Days at Hogwarts

The hospital on the second floor of Hogwarts.

Under the cover of Madam Pomfrey, several deans, headed by Professor McGonagall, were whispering and discussing the vicious events that had just occurred at Hogwarts.

"We can't just leave those children alone. If they are really taken away by Death Eaters, God knows what will happen."

Professor Sprout, who had just drank a sedative, was still very excited, "The current situation is bad enough, we must do something before something happens to those children."

"The easiest way is to just drive Snape away."

Several deans looked at Professor Slughorn, obviously not expecting him to give such advice.

"I'm afraid no, we can't involve Hogwarts in this wizarding war." Professor McGonagall directly rejected the proposal.

The time for the decisive battle has not yet come, and she cannot take any chances.

Professor Flitwick, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked: "What do the Order of the Phoenix say? Do they plan to send anyone here to rescue people?"

"The news has spread, but..."

"Perhaps, we should urge them to hurry up." Professor Sprout reminded: "Those children are suffering inhuman torture in the dungeon."

"They deserve it."

Professor Slughorn ignored the looks of the other deans and had no sympathy for the group of students who took the initiative to commit suicide.

"If they were willing to listen to Longbottom, they wouldn't end up like this. Suffering a little now will help them remember."

"Besides, I suspect this is a trap specially prepared for us by Snape."

Several professors were silent.

Because there is no doubt at all, this possibility is extremely high, otherwise Snape would not let those students stay in Hogwarts and let everyone see them tortured. This is obviously to lure people out.

Since they knew it was a trap, no one would be stupid enough to step into it.

Especially the deans gathered here, once they get involved, it may be difficult for them to escape, let alone stay in Hogwarts to protect the students.

However, the four deans never imagined that not only were they discussing this matter, but their principal was also discussing how to save the students of Hogwarts with Dumbledore's portrait in the office.

"When will the people from the Order of the Phoenix be able to rescue this person?"

Standing in front of Dumbledore's portrait, Snape asked through gritted teeth.

"Severus, the situation is not as bad as you think." Dumbledore comforted softly.

"If they haven't rescued people tonight, I'm afraid this matter won't be suppressed." Snape had never hated those brats so much, especially when he was actually needed to help with the aftermath.

"Yaxley seemed intent on doing something with them, something I simply couldn't stop."

The most ridiculous thing is that Yaxley is still one of their "own people", but based on Snape's understanding of Albert, the other party will never give up Yaxley's useful card easily to deal with those who want to die. Students, so if he wants to save their lives, he actually has to rely on himself. No matter how he thinks about it, it feels extremely ridiculous.

No, the most ridiculous thing is that Alecto Carlo, who is using black magic to torture the students in the dungeon, is actually one of their own.

They are all their own people from beginning to end, but it's a pity that they can't identify themselves to each other, otherwise maybe there won't be so much trouble.

"It should be soon. I have already informed Anderson. Rescue from the Order of the Phoenix should arrive soon."

Dumbledore also knew how much pressure Snape had endured, but he did not feel any guilt about it. After all, dead people do not feel guilty.

"It's best not to let that guy come here in person." Snape reminded: "I'm a little worried that Anderson will make things worse. And be sure to pack them up and take them away, don't let those brainless pigs Staying in school is getting me into trouble."

"By the way, I think you should have reminded him that I prepared a trap for them at Hogwarts."

"trap?"

In the Room of Requirement, Neville was listening with wide eyes to Kingsley's analysis of the whole matter.

"Yes, it's probably a trap."

"Otherwise, why do you think Snotlout let those captured students continue to be thrown into the dungeons of Hogwarts for torture?"

Sirius sneered. As Snape's nemesis, he knew what Snape wanted to do better than most people.

This was undoubtedly a trap specially prepared by Snape to lure others into taking the bait, and it was probably prepared for the Order of the Phoenix.

As we all know, Anderson rarely takes matters into his own hands unless it's an emergency.

"Fortunately, you didn't act without authorization, otherwise you might have been caught in the same pot."

Lupine was very happy that Neville could inherit the stability of the Longbottoms. He actually didn't understand why those students were so willing to take risks and risk their lives.

It's better now. Being locked up in the dungeon has been a hard experience. If they hadn't come, they might have lost their lives.

"This is not a fun game. Don't be stupid enough to expect your enemies to be merciful to you." Bill said seriously to the remaining people in the room.

"The most important thing for you is to train your fighting skills." Arthur, carrying a suitcase, reminded everyone that it was time to take action.

"No one has come to teach us magic recently."

Neville felt that this was also the main reason why other students couldn't help but want to go out and cause trouble.

After all, there is still no one with more authority to help restrain them.

As for Neville himself, he is definitely not good enough to make others obey, otherwise such a thing would not happen at all.

The rescue operation was simpler than expected.

Snape's purpose was to extract the information he needed from the captured students, and to lure out the remaining personnel and eliminate them altogether, thereby strengthening his control over Hogwarts.

Of course, the reason for this was actually that Voldemort invaded the International Federation of Wizards and took away a large number of helpers, leaving very few Death Eaters left in Britain.

Despite this, several Order members led by Kingsley were ambushed when they invaded the dungeon.

A large number of dementors and dark wizards rushed out from the ambush, creating a trap for them, leaving no chance for the members of the Order of the Phoenix to escape.

If it were an ordinary wizard, let alone saving people, he would probably have to help himself. But since the Order of the Phoenix dared to save people, they naturally considered the possibility of being surrounded.

After encountering the ambush, Kingsley did not panic at all. He took out a few strange gadgets from his pocket, conjured up several stone walls to block the passage, and then used the props he carried to set up traps in the passage to set up traps for others. He had to save some time to save the few death-seeking masters who had been tortured by black magic and turned into human beings.

When the dark wizards broke through the thick stone wall and broke into the underground passage, they faced a darkness that could not be penetrated by light.

"superior."

Snape urged the Dementors to rush forward, but they were quickly driven back by the Patronus.

Looking at the black screen in front of him, Snape waved his wand and directly summoned the knight armor in the school, causing these iron lumps to charge forward.

When they finally broke through the darkness, they found that damn house elf reaching out to grab Sirius and Kingsley's arms, preparing to lead them out of the dungeon.

"You're late, Snotlout."

Under the cover of Kingsley, Sirius threw a few smoke bombs at the charging dark wizards and then disappeared.
