Chapter 400 Student Assembly

Space transformation is not an easy task.

The wardrobe space is built on the Invisible Stretch Charm, overlaid with various other spells that influence each other.

To change is not as simple as tearing a poster off the wall, but rather like peeling back the wall and pulling out a specific length of wire.

It took Wade a whole day just to clean out the excess clutter. Fortunately, the room where the Room of Requirement hides things is open to everyone, and it can fit as much as they want.

Vader temporarily divided an area to place the magic materials, building materials, various ores and plants that could still be used.

If the magical animals in the space have the ability to survive in the wild, Vader will release them, but some of them will remain——

For cubs that have lost their parents, injured or disabled animals, and magical creatures that have lost their habitat due to human activities, sending them out of space is equivalent to letting them die.

Due to the influence of Scamander and Steven, Vader also loves all kinds of magical creatures, so half of the area is still divided for them to survive.

In the other half of the area, Wade planned to build his own magic research laboratory and a library. This was a big project, and he planned to complete it slowly in the future.

At the moment, the most important thing for him is to learn the magic of Apparition and Portkey.

But after Vader returned to school and waited for several days, Dumbledore did not appear, nor did the island matter appear in the newspapers.

However, in his spare time, he occasionally heard some students talking in low voices——

"Have you heard about that?" Ernie Macmillan of Hufflepuff whispered to Hannah Abbott next to him: "I never dreamed that they were so brave."

Hannah Abbott frowned and said in annoyance: "My mother asked me to apply to stay in school this Christmas. I think they are making a fuss out of a molehill. Will there be any danger on the way home?"

"Oscurus is missing. You know how serious this matter is." Slytherin's Blaise Zabini also told his friend with a solemn expression: "Only a very small number of wizards can fight against that kind of monster."

"It's not going to attack the Hogwarts Express, is it?" Pansy Parkinson said disapprovingly: "Even - you know - he hasn't even attacked the school train."

"The Obscurus is an irrational monster. Who knows what it will do." Theodore Nott said gloomily.

Rumors spread quietly in the school, and most of the people participating in the discussion were pure-bloods. They were mysterious and kept silent as soon as they saw half-blood and Muggle-born students approaching.

It seems that at this time, the difference in bloodline has overridden the conflicts in the academy.

On Friday, Vader used the time turner to take a class on Ancient Runes and then a class on Muggle Studies.

After class, when he and the exhausted Hermione packed their schoolbags and prepared to go to the cafeteria to eat, Theo suddenly appeared from around the corner, and his eyes lit up when he saw them.

"Finally I found you, Vader, Hermione." Theo pulled him and said, "Come with me quickly, I'm just missing you two."

"What?" Wade didn't know why.

He looked at Hermione and saw that the girl was also confused.

"What's the matter? Can we talk about it after eating? I'm almost starving!" Hermione asked.

"Don't worry, we have brought the food!" Theo said: "This matter is more important. Everyone should know about it early - especially you two. Except when eating, you have been busy all day long. It’s so hard to find people.”

As he spoke, he waved his magic wand, and a ball of red fireworks shot up into the sky and exploded with a "bang".

Theo explained: "This is to tell everyone that you have been found and inform everyone to gather."

Hermione felt even more confused, but seeing Theo's serious expression, she suddenly began to feel uneasy.

Vader vaguely guessed something and said to Hermione: "Let's go, Theo has some sense. It's probably something important."

Hermione followed the two people full of doubts. As they walked through the castle, they happened to meet a group of Slytherin students.

The group of people were having a heated discussion, but after seeing them, they suddenly stopped talking and stared at Vader and Hermione with very strange eyes.

This is somewhat unusual.

Although the two of them were "Muggle-born" known to the whole school, except for a few people in Slytherin, most of them respected Vader.

As a top student, Hermione was also a good friend of Harry and Wade. Although the group led by Malfoy often had conflicts with them, students from other grades would not directly show hostility.

Hermione felt a little numb, but she immediately stared back bravely.

These Slytherins were junior students. Facing the lioness of Gryffindor, most of them subconsciously looked away, while some looked at them provocatively.

Theo looked a little unnatural, and he quickened his pace with a straight face.

Wade has always been completely ignorant of these people. He didn't even pay attention to the way others looked at him. All he could think about was the paper about portkeys he just read in class.

To Wade, unimportant people were like potted plants on the roadside. They could just block the road and go around, and they would not be taken seriously by him at all.

The two groups of people passed each other, and after walking some distance away, Hermione turned around and saw that there were still several lower-grade Slytherins staring at their backs.

Somewhat weird.

She didn't know why, but the looks from these people made her feel more uncomfortable than Malfoy's provocative insults.

They climbed to the sixth floor, walked around and around, and finally arrived at a place they had never set foot on before.

It was a very ordinary-looking wooden door, and there was a proud-looking statue of a wizard next to it. He was making a speech gesture, with a large cloak hanging behind him.

"What is this place?" Wade asked.

"The student body president's lounge."

After Theo finished speaking, he raised his hand and knocked three times. The door was opened, and he saw that the people inside were full and everyone looked over.

The decoration of this room is very luxurious, with twenty or thirty candles lit on the chandelier, casting a soft and bright light.

The walls and floors are all made of snow-white marble, and there are several huge gilded landscape paintings hanging on the walls. The dark blue curtains are now closed. If they are pulled up, you can definitely see the scenery of the Black Lake in the distance.

With everyone watching, Theo quickly pulled Wade and Hermione in, and Harry and others happened to have reserved seats for them - a few soft cushions on the ground, which looked like someone had used magic to conjure them up.

As for the soft sofas and armchairs, they have already been occupied by some senior girls who came in advance.

Vader also saw Penelope Crevat, Ravenclaw's prefect of girls. She smiled and waved to Vader, looking very relaxed.

Hermione breathed a sigh of relief.

The students here behaved like classmates she was familiar with, not like those weird Slytherins just now.

The two sat on the cushions and immediately discovered that most of the students gathered in this room were Muggle-born or mixed-blood, with only a few pure-bloods.

For example, the Weasley brothers and sisters.

"What happened?" Hermione asked Harry in a low voice.

Harry's face was also blank: "I don't know either."

Ron came over and said, "Percy received a letter from my dad. He didn't tell me the content, but I guess it has something to do with you."

He pointed at Vader and Hermione and said, "Fred and George had a fight with him over this, and I accidentally heard him mention your names."

Hermione: "... Mr. Weasley's letter? Mentioned us?"

She looked back at Vader, as if hoping to find an explanation on his face.

Then she looked at Theo and realized that this was the real insider.

The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

"I have indeed heard some information, but Percy Weasley must know more comprehensively." Theo said: "After all, Mr. Weasley is the director of the Office for the Suppression of the Misuse of Muggle Items in the Ministry of Magic."

"Anyway, let's eat something first." Michael on the other side handed over a plate filled with sandwiches and asked, "Would you like carrot juice?"

"Yes, thank you." Hermione immediately took a sandwich, as did Vader.

The food and drinks were distributed, and everyone sat loosely and ate something casually. After a while, Percy Weasley came in holding a long piece of parchment.

"Sorry, everyone, before I officially explain the seriousness of the matter, I need to confirm that everyone is here."

He divided the parchment into several parts and handed them to the people sitting in front.

Penello also got one. She took the parchment, stood up and checked the Ravenclaw students.

"Wait a minute." Mandy Bloch whispered: "Lisa doesn't seem to be here yet?"

"She's a pureblood." Penello said, "She should have gotten the message."

"Oh...oh." Mandy said in a daze.

After a while, several prefects confirmed the list and returned it. Percy coughed dryly and said:

"You must be curious as to why I summoned all of you here today."

"Why not the auditorium, not the classroom, not the lawn, but my student union president's lounge!"

As he spoke, Percy puffed out his chest slightly, and the chairman's badge shone even more under the light.

"——Because this matter is related to the safety of all of you!"

Everyone naturally became serious, and some students seemed a little scared.

Naturally, everyone would not be unaware of the change in attitude of the pure-blood students.

At this moment, Percy saw many students looking up at his face, saw that Penello was also listening attentively, and saw that even Fred and George were not causing trouble. Huge, swelling happiness filled Percy's eyes. Chest rumbling.

——He originally didn’t want to cause trouble for himself by gathering so many students, because he felt that doing something like this might affect his future in the Ministry of Magic and make people think that he was a thorn;

But when the twins said that they were not afraid of offending anyone and were willing to take the lead, Percy didn't want to let the matter go.

Because it is both a responsibility and an honor, and will bring favor and support to many students with Muggle ancestry.

Before he stood up, Percy was still struggling and hesitating as to which side's interests were more important and which side's harm was greater.

But at this moment, all doubts were gone, and Percy's face turned slightly red with excitement.

"Everyone, just this morning I received a letter from my father with some very shocking news that some of you may have heard -"

"Not long ago, the Ministry of Magic destroyed an island hiding countless crimes and corpses, and you, my friends, you almost became one of them..."

Percy Weasley sighed for a while, and when everyone began to show an impatient expression, he took out a stack of folded letter paper from his pocket, opened it and read the key points.

The Ministry of Magic summoned a lot of wizards to clean up the island, so naturally there was no way to cover everyone's mouth. In contrast, Arthur Weasley got the news very late.

But he was usually responsible for many Muggle-related things. After most of the Ministry of Magic officials evacuated from the island, Arthur Weasley was still responsible for sorting out various equipment and documents on the island, so he knew more about the situation than ordinary people.

He wrote a long letter to Percy, implicitly mentioning his discovery on the island, indicating that he would be busy during the Christmas holidays and let the brothers and sisters stay in school.

Mr. Weasley also told Percy to take good care of his brothers and sisters in school, especially the twins, and not let them sneak out of school. Another thing is to remind Harry Potter so that he would not be hurt when he returned to his Muggle relatives.

Of course, when Percy read it, he naturally skipped the parents' instructions to them and only talked about what Mr. Weasley found on the island.

"A criminal organization of Muggles did very cruel things on the island... very cruel... I can't tell you in detail what they did, but what I can tell you is that so far, we have found nearly a hundred bodies on the island, and the oldest is no more than 25 years old..."

"Most of them are Muggles, but young wizards are more popular targets... The living experimenters were tortured to death... They call it an experiment, but in my opinion, it is undoubtedly a crime..."

After Percy, someone else added the news they heard.

"I heard that an underage wizard turned into an Obscurus and escaped. She fled to the UK." Penelope said: "You know what this means. Hogwarts is still safe now, but other places may not be."

In the crowd, several children shuddered suddenly, and a thin arm was raised high.

"I'm sorry." Colin Creevey said blankly: "I don't know what an Obscurus means... a magical creature that can't speak?"

Harry nodded silently.

What Colin Creevey said was what he wanted to ask, but he was going to ask Ron in private.

In the eyes of everyone looking at him like a fool, Colin Creevey seemed a little uneasy, and he put down his arms awkwardly.

Penelope did not laugh at him, and patiently explained: "The Obscurus is indeed a magical creature, but it is different from creatures like the Hippogriff. It is a creature brewed by wizards in pain and hatred..."
