Chapter 293: End of vacation, training, prison break

The Christmas winter vacation has come to the last few days, and Sirius has been depressed all day because he has to part with Harry.

The negative energy he exuded made everyone in the house feel depressed.

Mrs. Molly's assessment of him was that he was having a depressive episode.

"Sirius, how about I stay..."

Harry actually had some fear in his heart. After all, he could still accompany his godfather at Grimmauld Place, but returning to school would be surrounded by bad things.

At night, an unexpected person visited Grimmauld Place.

Sirius pushed open the door, and his already droopy face became even more sullen.

Unfortunately, Snape was also a member of the Order of the Phoenix, so Sirius had to welcome him into the old house.

"What are you doing here!" Sirius looked at him with disgust.

"Because, these two arrogant father and son always turned a deaf ear to other people's warnings, so I had to waste my precious time to clean up after them."

Snape's tone was steady and dull, causing Sirius to frown.

"Well, don't waste time, Harry Potter, come with me," Snape ordered.

Harry, who was standing next to him, was horrified and the chess piece in his hand was almost eaten by Ron.

"Wait," Sirius shouted, standing up and grabbing Snape by the collar.

"If I knew that you were bullying Harry under the pretext of teaching..."

"Oh, I don't have unlimited free time like you, but Mr. Potter should be as thick-skinned as his father. A little scolding won't have much impact."

The corner of Snape's mouth curled up slightly, and Sirius pointed his wand directly at Snape.

A dragon carrying Fat House Water also walked in at this time and saw the two people at loggerheads.

"Snap" Aiden snapped his fingers, and the soothing move began. The rising hostility between the two seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water.

"Okay, Sirius, it was my suggestion from the beginning that Harry learn Occlumency. Your teaching progress is indeed a bit too slow." Aiden said to Sirius first.

Then he looked back at Snape.

"Professor, use Legilimency to forcibly break through the subject's mental defenses.

If the other party resists, your memory will also be discovered by the recipient, you should know that." Aiden hinted.

"Hmph." Teacher Si folded his arms across his chest and snorted coldly.

"I knew he..." Sirius tried to get up again, but was slapped by Aiden and couldn't get up.

"Okay, Harry, follow the professor. You have to learn the art of Occlumency." Aiden turned his gaze to Harry.

Finally, Harry reluctantly walked towards Snape.

Over the next few days, Harry practiced Occlumency with Snape every day.

Before each day's class began, Snape would extract all of his memories and place them in the Pensieve.

Then it was his fun time, forcing Legilimency on Harry.

When Harry dragged his tired body back to Grimmauld Place, he saw Ron and Hermione playing chess together, which made him feel even more jealous.

But such days did not last long, and soon it was time to go back to school.

On the last night of the holiday, everyone had dinner together.

Mundungus, Moody, and Tonks also arrived at Grimmauld Place.

Sirius didn't want to spoil everyone's fun so he kept forcing a smile.

Not only does he support Gemini, he also picks food for everyone.

But Harry noticed that in between his laughter, Sirius would occasionally look downcast.

As the morning turned to say goodbye, Harry suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Sirius..." Harry was about to remind him, but he had already been pushed into the car.

On the Knight Bus, Moody and Tonks threaten Stan Shunpike not to reveal Harry's name.

Aiden watched the show from the side.

At the gate of Hogwarts, Lupin and Tonks helped everyone carry their luggage, and the dragon next to them seemed to smell something between them.

The new semester begins and the Geminis start selling their new props again.

Throughout the winter vacation, the two of them pestered Aiden to analyze his abilities.

At first Aiden thought they were just joking, but as time went on, the two actually achieved some results.

Invisibility cloaks in the wizarding world are mostly for one's own invisibility.

The Geminis used their discovery that Aiden's invisibility came from his mental neglect of an object to successfully develop an invisibility cap.

When worn, this hat can hide the user's entire head, and even Hermione admires them for this.

“So, what’s the potential of this product?” George raised an eyebrow at Aiden.

"It will definitely sell well." Aiden knew what they meant, but pretended to be ignorant.

"So, our beautiful little brother, can you give us some additional investment?" Fred came over and hooked his arm around Aiden's shoulders.

"You two are here to introduce the concept product to the shareholders." Aiden smiled.

But he still took out a bag of about two hundred Galleons and handed it to them.

"The boss is generous." The two men took the purse and disappeared in an instant.

On the other side, Azkaban.

A Death Eater sneaked into the Dementors' habitat and successfully contacted their leader.

Voldemort promised the Dementors that when he came to power, they would be free to take advantage of other people's happiness.

Thus, the greatest escape in Azkaban's history took place.

Bellatrix and Dolohov escaped from prison with a dozen Death Eaters.

Voldemort was very pleased with this, and his joy was even transmitted to Harry through the connection of their souls.

Of course, this rampage not only means the defection of the Dementors, but also means that the armed forces of the Ministry of Magic are further weakened.

The old guard at the Ministry of Magic sprang into action, and the propaganda machine went into full swing.

'The Ministry of Magic has alerted the Muggle government.', 'The Death Eaters have escaped from prison - have they really escaped?', 'Everything is under control, and with Fudge, there is nothing to worry about.'...

"Of course, we highly suspect that this operation was planned by a prisoner who had escaped from Azkaban before—Peter Pettigrew."

Fudge stood on the dais, trying his best to show off his limited vocabulary.

In contrast, the Lestrange family praised Fudge as much as possible through various publicity channels.

Inside Hogwarts, Aiden smiled while holding a newspaper, while Edmund next to him snatched the newspaper from him.

"What exactly do you want to do? You are still trying to boost Fudge's reputation at this time. Do you want him to win the election this year?" Edmund asked puzzled.

"How is that possible? Have you completed the withdrawal of funds and personnel?" Aiden asked back.

"It's done, but the price is too high!" Edmund complained.

"Where's the new newspaper? What's it going to be called?" Aiden snatched the newspaper from Edmund's hand.

"It's called Wizard Daily." Edmund rolled his eyes at him unhappily.

"Then let's just wait for the show to begin." Aiden smiled.
