Chapter 209 Snape never causes trouble, what he does is called new
The second thing, what he does is called news
Andy had indeed anticipated that Snape might make big news. But I didn't expect that this day would come so early, and what's more, I didn't expect that the news would be so big.
Is Snape crazy?
Or is Dumbledore really too old and confused?
1 Monday.
Hogwarts Great Hall.
During breakfast, a group of owls flew into the Great Hall, bringing letters and items to the young wizards at Hogwarts.
After reading the letter from home, Andy put the letter away and opened the folded newspaper to see if there was any interesting news recently.
In fact, wizarding newspapers are boring.
After all, there is only a small population in the magic world, and there is only so much work to do every day.
But Rita Skeeter's reporting is interesting.
She always found the hidden information and reported it. Although those reports were 30% true and 70% false, and she added a lot of stuff that she made up.
But those random things are actually quite interesting.
Andy wasn't kidding when he said he was a fan of hers.
In the years before cell phones and computers, Andy relied entirely on Rita Skeeter's reporting.
Open the newspaper, and the headline page is a castle towering on an isolated island. new
That's Azkaban!
As one of the safest places in the wizarding world, as famous as Hogwarts, Azkaban has imprisoned many criminals and even many vicious Death Eaters.
Ever since the Ministry of Magic made Azkaban a prison for wizards, there has never been an escape from the prison.
The Ministry of Magic has repeatedly stated that Azkaban is safe.
but nowβ¦β¦
A corner of Azkaban in the newspaper was blown up, and there were hundreds of dementors floating around the Azkaban castle. Aurors kept apparating to the island, looking at the representative in the sky with a solemn face. Bearing Voldemort's Dark Mark.
A green skull with a long snake spitting out of its mouth.
The photo at the bottom of the front page shows the ugly-looking Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge. His face was twisted, and he looked a little scared.
"This isβ¦β¦"
Snape did it?
Andy looked confused.
Snape is so arrogant?
What plans does he and Dumbledore have?
With doubts, Andy read the newspaper carefully.
According to the official statement given by the Ministry of Magic, at about one o'clock last night, a Death Eater wearing black robes attacked Azkaban in an attempt to free the imprisoned Death Eaters.
However, with the heroic blocking of the Aurors, they not only killed the arrogant Death Eater on the spot, but also ensured that no prisoner escaped from Azkaban. New πΌπΏ Book BarβπΌπΏππππ‘.πππ
During the battle, although one Death Eater managed to escape from Azkaban, he tragically died under the Dementor's Kiss.
In short, Azkaban is safe, the Aurors are heroic, and the Ministry of Magic can control the Dementors.
The magical world is even more peaceful and prosperous.
"Sure enough, the official reports are nothing interesting." Andy complained silently.
If you want to see truly interesting and informative news, you have to read Rita Skeeter's reporting.
Andy searched the newspaper, and sure enough he saw Rita Skeeter's signature in a very conspicuous position.
This womanβs reporting was different.
After eliminating those random things, Andy got the following information.
She claimed that there must have been Death Eaters who escaped the Ministry of Magic's trial by relying on the dirty PY transaction, but because of the greed of the Minister of Magic Fudge, they decided to create an attack to send a little fear to the greedy Minister.
She also said that the Death Eaters had started to connect last month, and they had reached some kind of secret deal, and one of the Death Eaters was hiding in Hogwarts.

"Awesome!" Andy was in admiration.
Although Rita Skeeter's report did not name names, it vaguely named a certain pure-blood family and Snape.
In order to shut up this woman, the pure-blood Death Eater would either choose to kill her or give her a large sum of gold Galleons as hush money.
Now that the Ministry of Magic is in turmoil, Andy doesn't think those pure-blood families will have the courage to kill Rita Skeeter.
After all, that woman is famous!
Of course, she is also very greedy, and Jin Galleons is enough to deal with her.
This is also the fundamental reason why she can survive until now.
After reading Rita Skeeter's report, Andy was convinced that Snape had done this.
Who else could be the Death Eater hiding in Hogwarts besides Snape?
It can't be Lockhart, can it?
But...why did Snape do this?
Andy secretly analyzed in his mind, "To find Voldemort's Horcrux? Or...Snape is an undercover agent, and he does this to gain Voldemort's trust?"
Dumbledore and Snape's ultimate goal is to kill Voldemort.
Based on this analysis, many things are actually easy to guess.
"Voldemort possessed Quirrell and entered Hogwarts last year. Could it be that he had reached some kind of deal with Snape?" Andy thought in shock.
After all, it was Harry who killed Quirrell in the original book, but now the plot has been messed up by Andy. In order to kill Voldemort for the ultimate goal, it seems to make sense for Snape to go undercover.
"Andy, is there any interesting news?" Seeing Andy reading the newspaper for a long time, Hermione stretched out her head curiously.
"Very interesting news, read it for yourself!" Andy handed over the Daily Prophet.
In fact, Hermione didn't even need to read it. Before Hermione could take the newspaper, a shocked voice came from the auditorium.
"Azkaban was attacked by Death Eaters!"
"What?"
"It's true! Fortunately, the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic killed the Death Eater on the spot, so those prisoners were not allowed to escape from Azkaban."
"You can't believe what the Ministry of Magic says. They will exaggerate one point of credit into ten points."
"Let me read the newspaper quickly!"
"..."
Listening to the noisy sounds in the auditorium, Hermione glanced at Andy in shock, "Azkaban was attacked by Death Eaters?"
"Yeah!" Andy gestured to the newspaper in his hand.
Hermione took the newspaper and read it quickly.
Andy was lost in thought.
If his previous speculation was correct, then Snape attacked Azkaban to gain Voldemort's trust.
If he was still on Dumbledore's side, then he would never let any Death Eater escape.
Andy thought about the unlucky Death Eater who died under the Dementor's Kiss... This makes sense.
"And he also left the Dark Mark as a warning!"
butβ¦β¦
"Is it because Voldemort didn't let Snape resurrect him because he didn't trust him? Or is Snape actually a double agent and he wants to help Voldemort find out about Dumbledore?"
Andy thought to himself: "This failure...maybe it will make Voldemort more anxious?"
The rest of Snape's life might not be easy.
