Chapter 240 Counterattack and Public Opinion
·
Nan Shan Dou Xi
The door to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office was flung open.
Moody thumped in with that wooden leg.
He saw Heinrich in front of the box at a glance, and glanced over to find that the lock of the box was unlocked.
Moody's complexion changed, and he walked over quickly and reached out to grab Heinrich's collar to make him hit the table, and the things on the table were knocked down.
"Edgar, you dare to come to my office, what the hell are you planning!" He roared, saliva splashing everywhere.
Heinrich said calmly, "I'm sorry, Professor, I came here to ask you about the Defense Against the Dark Arts homework, and I came in without authorization."
Instead of being caught and embarrassed, he minimized the problem.
Moody's magic eye swept across the box, then up and down Heinrich's body again.
After confirming that he hadn't stolen anything, he let go of his hand.
Heinrich straightened his robe with a sickly face.
Moody said gruffly: "You shouldn't have entered my office without permission, 50 points deducted!"
Heinrich didn't leave, and he wasn't a Slytherin student now, so the point deduction couldn't be deducted from Durmstrang anyway.
Staring at the box behind Moody, he asked, "Professor, what's hidden there?"
His eyes tried to see through the box to see what was inside.
Moody growled, "Another 50 points!"
He was so mad that he completely forgot that Heinrich wasn't a Hogwarts student.
This attitude obviously does not want people to continue to ask.
Heinrich watched Moody silently, and before he could get angry, he left.
After Heinrich left, Moody hurried to close and lock the door.
After finishing everything, he walked to the front of the box on wooden legs.
Putting his hand on the box, he muttered, "He won't find out."
. . .
The last day until the Easter holidays.
John summons a group of Death Eaters.
These were all former Death Eaters in Knockturn Alley.
There was also a list of Death Eaters who were not called, those who were loyal to Voldemort.
And these people are different, they are all afraid of Voldemort.
Some of them betrayed their former companions like Karkaroff did, and some of them pretended to be under the Imperius Curse.
Without exception, these were Voldemort's most hated traitors.
There is no place in the wizarding world for them to walk in an open and aboveboard manner, and the Dark Mark has always been imprinted on them.
"Dear Sir Johnny Silver Hand, I don't know why you summoned us?"
A terrified woman was pushed out.
Rather than being summoned, it is better to be brought here by force.
The woman was the owner of the Knockturn Alley clothing store, Daisy Jafar.
She once betrayed the information of two Death Eaters, successfully got her sentence reduced, and lived in Azkaban for three months.
Before Daisy opened the door today, there was a knock on the door.
After opening the door, the vicious werewolf wizard picked her up and took her away.
She couldn't even resist, and was thrown into the office after she reacted.
Waiting here is Lord Johnny Silverhand, the king of Knockturn Alley, known as the second person under Dumbledore.
She didn't even know where she had offended the lord.
The stiff woman was forced to come out first, she didn't dare to raise her head, because there was a legend that anyone who caught Johnny Silverhand's eyes would die.
"Daisy, I don't think I remember your name correctly."
A deep and hoarse voice sounded, and Daisy said with a flattering smile, "Yes, Your Excellency."
John rubbed his finger on the ring, as if thinking about how to deal with this group of people.
After deliberating for a while, John said, "I need your help with one thing. In return, I will waive your three-year rent in Knockturn Alley."
The people who were so scared to death just now were no longer afraid.
Daisy screamed in surprise, "Really, sir."
"Are you questioning me?" John gave a look, and Daisy, who was surprised just now, immediately lowered her head like a quail.
The noisy crowd immediately fell silent.
Putting away Longwei and panic, John said lightly: "This is a simple favor, I need you to do one thing."
Daisy learned to be smart at this time, she asked in a low voice: "What's the matter?"
"I need you to take the initiative to return to Voldemort when Voldemort returns." There was a trace of relief in John's voice, as if asking them to pull weeds in the garden outside.
However, his words stunned everyone.
Immediately afterwards, gasps sounded one after another.
Daisy looked like she was about to cry, and said, "Your Excellency Johnny Silverhand, please stop joking."
"I'm not joking, Daisy."
John said coldly: "You should be clear."
His words were undoubtedly a death sentence, and immediately some people in the crowd quit.
"Impossible, I will never go back!"
This was shouted by a dark wizard in Knockturn Alley.
With a hideous expression on his face, he yelled at John, "You're asking me to die!"
"As Death Eaters, you have survived until now not because you didn't deserve to die, but because I gave you a chance." John said with a cold expression.
The dark wizard stared angrily, and put his hand in his pocket.
But with so many security teams around, how could he have a chance.
Tang Mi took his wand away with a disarming spell, and two security guards held him down and escorted him to John.
John raised his right hand to hold the dark wizard's head.
The black wizard rolled his eyes, white gas came out of his body, and his soul was pulled out.
John held the soul in one hand, and branded his soul with the other.
"Remember, don't disobey my orders."
Stuffing his soul back, John looked at the silent crowd.
He said coldly: "Even if you don't go, there will still be many people there. They may not die, but you will definitely die!"
"Give your allegiance, or... die."
Senran's voice made everyone fall into fear, they didn't want to die.
But all this is beyond their control.
Which would live longer, to die now or wait until Voldemort appeared?
Wise men have heeded John's words.
They weren't the first, there were many Death Eaters who had become Johnny Silverhands.
Thinking about it this way, they looked a little better.
After accepting the task, the rent for three years can also be exempted, which makes the dark wizard who is living on the poverty line very excited.
Life is like that, since you can't resist, it's better to choose someone who is well treated.
Besides, Voldemort may not come back. The Death Eaters present have seen with their own eyes how the power of the Dark Lord fell and was liquidated.
These people deluded themselves and thought that they were branded by John.
They didn't know that there were still people loyal to Voldemort in this undercover conference.
When they heard John's words, their hearts were overwhelmed.
"Are there a lot of Johnny Silver Hands among the Death Eaters?"
The few people who were planning to summon the Death Eaters immediately panicked. What if there is Johnny Silver Hand among the people called over?
Picture that picture.
The two sides are at war.
As a result, except for a few people on my side, the others are all people on the opposite side.
How is this played?
After exchanging glances, they were going to check it out after going back.
John saw all the small movements of those Death Eaters.
The corners of the mouth under the mask were raised slightly, and he intentionally left flaws when he branded several people. With Voldemort's ability, he could discover it with careful inspection.
"Voldemort, I hope you like my gift to you."
With a sneer, John wanted to make the Death Eaters panic.
The more this is the case, the safer Lucius and the others will be.
. . .
John goes back to school.
The learning atmosphere of the students has become tense.
On the first day of the holiday, the students discussed what they did during the holiday.
It seems that in this way, the tail of the holiday can be grasped, and the heavy learning tasks will not come.
After John came back, the first thing he did was to check the Star Club.
After he closed the Star Club, no one ever entered it again.
Taking out the magic crystal formed by excess magic power, John went to the auditorium.
The holiday temporarily dilutes the previously tense Slytherin atmosphere.
The unhappiness seems to be gone for a while.
This atmosphere continued until the owls came over.
A hundred owls swooped into the auditorium, dropping all sorts of things.
Ernie of Hufflepuff is a person who chases the forefront of public opinion. He took the newspaper brought by the owl, looked down, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Dumbledore's befuddled behavior makes people worry about whether he is still awake."
Place eye-catching headlines in the largest column.
Soon, many people were attracted to Ernie.
"The position of Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is full of discussions. Every year Hogwarts recruits professors again, which seriously hinders students' learning progress. This year's professor is held by Alastor Moody.
According to reliable sources, Alastor Moody once demonstrated the Unforgivable Curse to students in class, and took a life in front of the students.
For this reason, the author asks, will this approach lead the students astray, and thus embark on the road of black wizards?
Alastor Moody once claimed to have been attacked by a trash can, and he himself was close to madness. It is true that Alastor Moody was a powerful Auror, but all kinds of behaviors make people feel that he is an old madman. "
Ernie read it aloud, the article quoting Dumbledore in the headline, but criticizing Moody's teaching and state of mind throughout.
This made the auditorium gradually quiet down.
The corners of John's mouth curled up. He didn't have the temper to fight back, and Moody was full of doubts.
In that case, please ask this Auror to leave the school.
He took a sip of water and said to himself: "Don't you want to play, then play to the end."
Public opinion is not something that only Moody can manipulate.
. . .
Moody thumped in with that wooden leg.
He saw Heinrich in front of the box at a glance, and glanced over to find that the lock of the box was unlocked.
Moody's complexion changed, and he walked over quickly and reached out to grab Heinrich's collar to make him hit the table, and the things on the table were knocked down.
