Chapter 306 Dumbledore’s thoughts, Snape running to Russia (2-in-1)

Ministry of Magic Hall.

"Dumbledore, what are you doing here?" Stringer looked at the old man in front of him and said indifferently.

As for Dumbledore, he had no preference for respecting the old and favoring the young.

Compared with the trust that ordinary wizards have in Dumbledore, he is only wary of Dumbledore.

Powerful and uncontrollable, let's not mention these for now.

More importantly, according to the information he accidentally obtained, the two generations of Dark Lords had an unclear relationship with Dumbledore.

Therefore, he did not have any trust in Dumbledore, but was full of vigilance.

According to his logical guess, the third generation Dark Lord Bao Buqi is also related to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore seemed to know Stringer's attitude, but he didn't care and instead spoke gently.

"Stringer, I have just received news that this squib parade seems to be related to Professor Lockhart's meditation method."

"As the principal of Hogwarts, I think it is still necessary to understand the truth of the matter and minimize the possibility of accidents."

When Dumbledore gave his reasons, Stringer was silent for a moment, nodded slowly and said, "Okay, then I'll ask Principal Dumbledore to help."

He didn't want to get involved in the trouble caused by the pure-blood family.

What's more, with Dumbledore taking action, I believe the pure-blood family would not dare to cause too much trouble.

The title of the greatest white wizard of this century is no joke.

When Lucius and Kain heard this, their expressions changed.

He opened his mouth to speak, but couldn't seem to find a suitable excuse.

In the end, they could only look at each other, with a bad feeling in their hearts.

The Squib Parade had exceeded their expectations.

And Dumbledore's appearance was such a coincidence.

All this seemed like they had fallen into a trap.

"Thanks, Stringer. From what I've heard, they're almost at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies."

"Should we go directly to the hospital to persuade, find out the truth, explain the misunderstanding, and minimize the impact."

Dumbledore suggested again.

After Stringer heard this, he took a deep look at Dumbledore and nodded slightly.

Then, he shouted loudly to all the Aurors present.

"Let's go, St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies!"

After everyone present heard this, they waved their wands directly.

Phantom move!

In an instant, black shadows flashed, and more than ten figures disappeared in the hall of the Ministry of Magic.

St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Magical Injuries.

"Don't worry, everyone, a Muggle shielding spell has been cast here, and the Secrecy Act will never be violated."

"We don't want to cause trouble, but we are asking to save our companions and get back the meditation method that should belong to all of us."

At the entrance of the hospital, or on the road outside the department store, a large number of wizards and squibs gathered together.

Opposite them, there was a high platform shaped by a transformation spell. On the high platform, stood a handsome young wizard, who was Ian.

Ian stood in front of everyone and shouted loudly to the squibs and wizards.

"Edmond Kale, Yasha Kale, Amina Odinga, Kosem Lorraine"

Ian stood in front of everyone and read out the names of the five people word by word. His voice became more and more loud, and his tone was mixed with anger and unwillingness.

"They are all squibs, but they are also about to become wizards from squibs just like me."

"Because they have successfully practiced meditation. Even two companions, Yasha Kale and Amina Odinga, have developed magic through meditation and become wizards, but they have not yet learned the magic spell."

"But, for some reason, yesterday he was fine and communicated with us, but today, it's less than 24 hours."

"He became what they call a mentally damaged person, and he was even taken to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries."

"Is this possible? Is this realistic? Isn't this a naked frame-up?"

"Do you believe it?"

Ian stood in front of everyone and shouted loudly.

"Do not believe!"

"Do not believe!"

"."

All the squibs present waved their arms angrily and shouted out, and the wizards on the side also gradually shouted out.

Outside the hospital, the atmosphere became more intense and the voices louder.

What Ian said just now, coupled with the leaflet they saw in their hands.

They have subconsciously believed that this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy of a pure-blood family.

This gave many wizards who were already dissatisfied with the pure-blood family an opportunity to vent their anger.

Seeing the atmosphere getting more intense, Ian felt inspired.

From now on, Squib will officially come to the stage and become a real part of the wizarding world.

Instead of being like a house elf, who can only do the work of a slave.

After a while, Ian looked at the excitement on everyone's faces and knew that they were about to reach a peak.

So, he stretched out his magic wand, pointed at his throat, and said again: "The hospital is a place to treat illnesses and save lives."

"And we are not thugs. I have contacted Principal Dumbledore."

"I believe that he will make the decision for us instead of letting the pure-blood family bully us, frame us, slander us, or even hurt us."

Hearing Ian mention Dumbledore, all the wizards, including Squib, looked excited.

As the greatest white wizard in the world, the Headmaster of Hogwarts.

All Squibs have nothing but admiration for him.

The wizards present, basically all Hogwarts students, were naturally very excited when they heard that Dumbledore was coming.

At this moment, suddenly.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A large number of black shadows appeared, including Dumbledore, Stranger, and many Aurors.

Ian noticed it immediately and immediately shouted excitedly.

"Headmaster Dumbledore is here, and the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic are here."

"I believe they will definitely make the decision for us, bring out our companions, and expose the pure-blood family's conspiracy."

In one sentence, all the Aurors who had just appeared were immediately picked up.

After Stranger heard this, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

Especially when they saw a large number of squibs and the gazes of the wizards, they immediately swallowed back the words they originally wanted to say.

I could only hold the wand, point it at my throat, and say loudly: "Everyone, the Ministry of Magic will definitely tell everyone the truth."

"Everyone calm down first!"

At the same time, Dumbledore on the side also said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will definitely give you an explanation."

After Ian heard this, he immediately said to everyone: "Everyone, please be quiet. I believe that Director Stranger and Principal Dumbledore will take us into the hospital and reveal the truth."

Hearing the shouts from three parties, all the wizards and squibs gradually became quiet.

Then, Ian stepped down from the high platform, stretched out his wand and waved it lightly.

The high platform shaped by the transformation spell began to sink and returned to normal, and the ground became even again.

At the same time, Ian quickly walked up to the two of them and said, "Director Stranger and Principal Dumbledore, do we want to enter the hospital now?"

"Before, I was worried about someone being treated in the hospital, so I stopped everyone from entering the hospital."

"However, now that you two are here, I believe you can return to my companions smoothly."

After hearing this, Stringer looked at Ian and said directly: "Don't worry, since we are here, we will definitely give you an explanation."

However, there was a hint of warning in his eyes, which seemed to be telling Ian not to cause trouble.

After seeing this, Ian was not annoyed and set his sights on Dumbledore.

The most important thing is Principal Dumbledore.

Dumbledore looked at Ian silently and said slowly: "Don't worry, we can just wait here. I have contacted my old friend, Facardo Mungo, director of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries. Ge, he will come out with your companions."

At this time, Kain and Lucius were looking at the gathered wizards, their eyes full of exploration, as if they were looking for someone.

But there was some anxiety on his face, as if he couldn't find the person he arranged.

This made the two people's hearts sink, and they felt more and more as if they had fallen into a whirlpool.

at this time

"Albus, you're here."

A slightly older wizard walked out of the hospital entrance, shouting as he walked towards Dumbledore.

Soon, the director of the hospital, Facardo Mungo, walked up to Dumbledore and said with some complaint: "You are here, the therapists in the hospital were quite frightened just now."

"I was afraid that the wizard from outside would just break in, so I managed to calm him down with great difficulty."

At this time, Ian quickly said: "Dean Facardo, where are my companions? What is their current situation?"

After hearing Ian's question and looking at the large number of wizard squibs on the opposite side, he looked a little hesitant.

Then he walked up to Dumbledore and whispered a few words.

When Ian saw this, he was not annoyed by the other party's lack of reply. Instead, he stared closely at Dumbledore's face.

After Dumbledore heard Dean Facardo's answer, his expression remained calm, but he sighed inwardly.

Then, he spoke softly to Facardo Mango, his tone seemed a little helpless.

"Fakado, bring the people out."

Hearing this, Facardo seemed to be prepared and waved the wand in his hand gently towards the door.

Then, from the door of the hospital, the body of a petrified wizard floated over.

At the same time, Dumbledore also spoke: "Facardo mentioned to me just now that a wizard was preparing to cast the Forgetting Curse on the five Squibs lying on the hospital bed."

"As a result, they were stopped on the spot by a wizard who acted bravely. Despite this, two Squibs were still cast into oblivion and lost a lot of their memories."

Dean Fakar on the side also added: "The five squibs still lying in the hospital have been identified by professional therapists as having varying degrees of mental damage and are suspected of being infected by black magic."

"The possibility of successful treatment is very low."

After hearing this, Ian looked sad, as if he had been hit.

Stringer on the side said: "Farkar, can you take me to see the wizard who is brave enough to do justice?"

"This..." Farkar Mungo glanced at Dumbledore and the one next to him. Many Aurors said with some embarrassment: "The other party said that he knew this wizard and he was a wizard from the Frank family."

"He couldn't afford to offend the pure-blood family, so he left first, and I couldn't stop him."

Stringer was silent after hearing this.

This pure-blood wizard from the Frank family.

He should have seen the movement outside, felt that the plan had been exposed, and was ready to eliminate the last traces.

As a result, he was caught in the act.

Ian seemed to have thought of something and quickly said to Fakar: "Dean Fakar, these are our companions. Please take good care of them."

"Don't worry about the gold galleons, we will pay for it."

With that said, he turned to Stringer and said, "Director Stringer, now that he has been caught, I hope to get the truth about the matter."

"Also, please protect our companions and the petrified wizard to prevent anyone from killing anyone again."

After hearing what Ian said, the expressions of Lucius and Kain who were standing aside became gloomy.

This time it was really troublesome.

It's really hard to say what the petrified wizard will say after he wakes up.

It seems that the only way to survive is to break off one's arm.

The two looked at each other and made a decision in their hearts.

At this moment, Stringer was silent for a moment after hearing Ian's request, but quickly affirmed: "Don't worry, I will give you an explanation."

After Ian heard this, he nodded silently, then walked up to the crowd and the wizard, and said in a low voice, frustrated.

"Everyone, we just received news that all five of our Squib companions have been exposed to black magic, causing mental problems."

"The murderer even planned to eliminate traces. Two of his squib companions were cast into the Oblivion Curse and lost a large amount of their memory."

"However, the murderer's plot did not succeed. He was successfully caught. According to preliminary investigations, he is related to the pure-blood family. However, the man behind the murder still needs further investigation by the Ministry of Magic."

Upon hearing this, all the wizards and squibs shouted loudly.

"Conspiracy, conspiracy, it's all conspiracy."

"Truth, truth, truth revealed."

"."

When Ian saw this, he didn't seem to have any intention of blocking it, and seemed to want to put pressure on the Ministry of Magic in this way.

Stringer, who was behind him, couldn't stay any longer, so he quickly stepped forward and said loudly.

"Everyone, please rest assured that the Ministry of Magic will definitely bring you the truth."

"The mastermind behind the scenes will never escape our Aurors."

"."

Stringer kept promising from the front, and with the reputation of Aurors, the noisy crowd gradually stabilized.

Behind him, Dumbledore was silently paying attention to this scene.

Thinking in my heart

What is Lockhart's ultimate goal?

What’s the next step?

Nurmengard, Castle Study.

Grindelwald stood in front of the study window, looking at the snow-capped mountains in the distance.

Behind him, Philo Shafik, the patriarch of the German Shafik family, stood respectfully behind and said in a deep voice: "Sir, according to our information, most wizards in the British wizarding world already know about the Squib Parade. , and even a lot of people involved.”

"And the pure-blood family's conspiracy is known to most wizards."

"Especially, many squibs distributed various leaflets on the street, constantly telling the tragic stories of the five squibs and exaggerating the dangers of pure-blood families."

"."

Grindelwald, standing in front of the window, was listening and thinking.

Is this the work of his old friend Dumbledore?

Does not look like.

Dumbledore prefers a subtle approach and likes to promote elite actions.

This method of guiding public emotions and mobilizing the masses.

It looks a bit like his handwriting.

It would be interesting if it wasn't Dumbledore.

This Professor Lockhart, it is really possible that he has made a mistake.

With his thoughts turning, after listening to Philo Shafik's story, Grindelwald asked directly: "Philo, how is the Potions Professor Dumbledore sent to find Lockhart doing now?"

After hearing this, Philo thought about it, as if he thought of something, and said with a smile.

"That Professor Snape should be eating snow in Russia now."

at the same time

Snape looked at the icy and snowy environment outside, the Muggles walking back and forth in thick clothes, and the dense Russian writing on the store plaques outside.

The corners of his eyes twitched, and an unknown fire emerged in his heart.

I had just left Africa and had agreed to return to the UK.

but

Why did you come to Russia?
