The Trinity of Harry Potter

Chapter 127 The scapegoat

"Very good, Harry! You have made such great progress in just one day!" Lupine patted Harry on the shoulder in surprise.

On the second day of the holiday, Harry's Patronus Charm turned into a thick silver mist, completely suppressing the Dementor that the Boggart had turned into.

"What are you thinking of?"

Harry smiled and scratched his head: "A dream, or a belief."

"My parents protected me with their lives, and I am the continuation of their lives, so I cannot be frightened by dementors."

"I will get married and have children in the future, and live happily forever. Only then will I be worthy of them."

Lupine wiped the corners of his eyes: "It was love and sacrifice that gave you the courage to fight against the Dementors, right?"

Harry smiled and nodded.

From that day on, something seemed to have changed in Harry. No one could tell what it was, but everyone could really feel it.

For most students, school life has finally calmed down this year. But Kano is still a busy life.

In mid-April, Hagrid broke into the library, grabbed Kano and left.

"What... um, let's talk about it after we go out."

Mrs. Pince's wand was raised, ready to "magically" shut up the two of them at any time.

"They're going to kill Buckbeak! There's going to be a trial at the end of the month."

Kano was full of questions, when did this happen, and Fudge was so free?

"Is there a formal notice? Buckbeak is the property of the school, let alone a hippogriff. Even if it is a mangy dog, it is not something that the Ministry of Magic can kill if it wants."

"Yes, Harry and the others told me that too. I only know you among the school directors, so I came to find you." Hagrid was so anxious that his face was covered with sweat, and Kano had to cast a spell on his big head.

Cool down.

"Huh, thank you, this is much better." Hagrid patted the ice on his beard, "It will be implemented at the beginning of June, only two months left. I'm asking you, the school director, I have to go back and find a solution now.

Even if I help Hermione look through the book?"

Kano felt that Hagrid would be doing a great favor if he didn't cause any trouble, and Hermione must be looking over the existing precedents now.

After all, the British Ministry of Magic also uses case law. If the basic situation of a case is similar to an existing case law, the judgment must be based on the result of the precedent.

But Hermione's eyes were still a bit rigid. Kano turned his head and roughly understood the cause of this incident.

"Don't worry about the trial. Buckbeak will definitely be convicted, but he doesn't have to die." Kano said to the trio and Hagrid in a meeting in Hagrid's cabin.

"What do you mean?" Hermione dropped the book and put her head in her hands, "You confused me."

"First of all, who wants to kill Buckbeak?"

"Lucius was the one who pushed for it," Harry replied, "last term."

"Yes, last semester when this matter was at its hottest, the school board pushed it back. Why is it being brought up again now?" Kano reminded.

"I understand!" Ron's eyes lit up, "It's Fudge, he wants to please Lucius!"

Cano gave a thumbs up: "You always understand the twists and turns the fastest! Fudge needs money now, and he needs political allies."

"So, killing Buckbeak was just Fudge's statement to Lucius. 'For you, I am willing to challenge the Hogwarts School Board! I am your loyal friend.' In fact, no one really cares.

Buckbeak's life and death." Hermione also understood, but Harry was still confused.

"Then I'll let it go now." Hagrid stood up immediately and was about to go out excitedly.

"Not now." Kano stopped Hagrid in a funny manner, "You at least let the executioners sent by the Ministry of Magic see it, otherwise the Ministry of Magic will be embarrassed."

"You can secretly release Buckbeak before the execution, and no one will seriously look for it." Cano said, "Lucius and Fudge will gain face, and everything will be calm."

The trio felt relieved.

A few days later, the school directors held a meeting and decided not to have a hard bargain with the Ministry of Magic.

Of course, Kano left the specific operations to the trio. He asked the centaur tribe to look after Buckbeak so that Hagrid could go to the Forbidden Forest to play with him when he had nothing to do.

According to the gossip Kano received from "someone", although Buckbeak was not killed, the relationship between Lucius and Fudge did get closer.

Just after handling this matter, Dumbledore asked him to go there again in the evening and the Horcrux Crown was taken care of.

It was still the same container, still one old and one young. Dumbledore opened the silver box, and the mysterious blue mist poured out.

Several Ravenclaw headmasters hanging on the wall looked over and couldn't help but wailed.

After Ravenclaw's diadem was infused with a large amount of magic, it returned to its former dazzling appearance.

But the dense cracks on it still remind everyone that it is already a Horcrux that is about to be destroyed.

With Dumbledore's final operation, the crown made a fine breaking sound, and the pieces fell to the bottom of the box.

A soul fragment wrapped in a ball of light appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

The surface of the light ball is still the hieroglyphics of ancient Egypt, and the soul fragments inside are the twisted intestines of Voldemort.

"It's like this again. The diary contains the brain, and the crown contains the intestines. It's completely contrary to common sense." Kano pinched his eyebrows with a headache, "I seem to be thinking of something, but I can't say it for the moment."

"By the way, what are the hieroglyphics here used for?" Kano asked, looking at Dumbledore.

"I don't know, maybe it has the same function as the runes in the diary, and is used to control the basilisk?" Dumbledore guessed.

"Egyptian hieroglyphs are already a dead language because of the years of war there and so much information has been lost. The wizards' research on it is even worse than that of the Muggles." Dumbledore stroked his beard helplessly, "Me too.

I can only speculate."

Kano always felt like something was wrong.

"Don't take it too seriously. We have eliminated another Horcrux. You should be happy." Dumbledore patted Cano on the shoulder. "Let's go to Gaunt's old house together during the holidays. There should be another secret of Voldemort hidden there."

A Horcrux."

"Don't worry!" Kano quickly stopped.

If Voldemort's Horcrux and its storage location have not changed this time, then what is stored in Gaunt's old house is the ring inlaid with the Resurrection Stone.

This thing is too destructive to the elderly who are full of regret in their hearts. Cano has no confidence in stopping Dumbledore who is in an emotional breakdown.

If he insists on wearing the ring on his finger, won't he die two years early?

"I have found another Horcrux and will give it to you in two days. Don't go to Gaunt's old house before taking care of it!"

Dumbledore looked at Kano with confusion. Thinking of Merlin's comments and Kano's performance in the past two years, he nodded in agreement.

"Okay, if you insist."
