Start at Marvel's Hogwarts Hoo

There are more than ten days until Christmas, and then John can go see the old man at home.

A few bottles of Life Potion were also made... but because the core material was too expensive, she borrowed some money from Hermione and treated it as a stock... This also left the gold Galleons that he and Hermione exchanged at Gringotts. Not much left.

A bottle will be given to Howard and Maria... and Grindelwald, as a thank you gift last time... Dumbledore will just wait for the next batch.

As for Ms. Carter, the Muggle world also needs to start laying out... Fortunately, the Muggle world has rich experience in fighting. He only needs to prove to Ms. Carter that Hydra is not dead... unlike the wizarding world. Dumbledore has no experience here...perhaps, a knowledgeable Muggle can be hired to replace them?

John thinks this is very feasible, and when Dumbledore is ready to launch the plan, he can mention the matter of finding a Muggle consultant to him.

"What do you think Snape wanted to get under that trap door?"

here we go again…

Ever since Harry saw a tooth mark on Snape's foot on the corridor when they helped Alicia and Ron back to their dormitory last time, he believed that Snape had set the troll... for the purpose In order to attract everyone's attention, he went to the third floor to steal something...and because he had not anticipated the existence of the three-headed dog in advance, Snape could only return to everyone's sight in a hurry.

Harry firmly believed in his analysis, and when John persuaded him, he and Ron wondered whether he was a fan of Snape or had been cast by Snape under the Imperius Curse...

Forget it, I'm tired, you two can play as you like.

"I'm actually more curious about what's under the trap door... If Hermione hadn't found out that three-headed dogs are generally used to guard treasures, I wouldn't have thought that the wooden board could be a door."

Ron was daydreaming...he seemed to see...many Galleons under the wooden door...snacks and broomsticks!

Looking at Ron with a silly smile on his face, Harry turned his head and looked at John sitting next to Hermione... He still wanted to convince John, his first friend...

"John..."

"Guys, you gotta see this!"

Hermione unfolded the Daily Prophet in her hand and placed it on the coffee table.

"I thought we were out of money..." John glanced at the date above...it was the latest issue of the newspaper...

"Who did that come from?" Hermione rolled her eyes at John. "You'd better tell me where the money went before the end of this Christmas!"

"That's my newspaper... John, if you weren't usually quite reliable, I would have reported it to Professor McGonagall... You emptied our Hermione's wallet."

Alicia walked downstairs with her hair tied up... She really couldn't understand why these people could get up early on weekends.

Hearing Alicia's voice, Ron came back to his senses and subconsciously moved to the side.

"morning everyone."

Alicia smiled at Ron, sat on the separate sofa, and crossed her legs.

"Did you go to bed late last night?"

"It's not too late, Ron... Old Bat gave us a paper that was four feet long, and he also asked that the space between each word should be no larger than a fingernail."

"see this!"

Hermione frowned and patted the newspaper on the table.Several people looked over.

"Three days ago, with the approval of the Wizengamot, the dark wizard Grindelwald was taken to Junkertown for secret execution by Principal Dumbledore. During this period, the saints heard the news and went to rob him, but were killed by Principal Dumbledore. Li Huo burned them all to death...On the Ministry of Magic side, only the Auror who was a little closer to the fighting area was hit by the Saints' stun spell, and no one else was injured...Grindelwald was also burned to death on the spot..."

"According to calculations, a total of 146 relatively intact wands were seized at the scene, including the wands of the saints...Merlin's beard, and more than 100 people..."

"This is normal, Hermione. More wizards died in the war 50 years ago... In fact, if it weren't for Dumbledore's request, they would have been sent to the death chamber chair."

Alicia shook her head disapprovingly. Although her family had some connection with the Saints, they would never deny the crimes they had committed...a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye...this was the persistence of pure blood.

"I thought we didn't have the death penalty anymore, the Death Eaters were just imprisoned in Azkaban..."

Hermione was a little surprised. Apparently the Muggle world had abolished the death penalty for a long time...

"My dad said when they were chatting that Death Eaters who are willing to pay will be released by the Ministry of Magic... and those who are unwilling to pay will be locked up until they are willing to pay or their relatives and friends have paid enough. So far...after all, the Ministry of Magic has always been short of money." Ron said, but at the end of the sentence, he couldn't help but laugh.

He heard this when he was eight or nine years old. From then on, the image of the Ministry of Magic in his mind became blurred... Just like when he was a child, he dreamed of being the Minister of Magic, but since then, He just wants to be an Auror... This is because Aurors can independently determine the criticality of the situation and then cast some dangerous, deadly and handsome spells.

Hermione never expected that the Ministry of Magic could blatantly engage in such corruption and perversion of the law... It felt like the Ministry of Magic regulations had become a joke.

She had an urge to do something. After all, she and John were both from the wizarding world... But she couldn't find the direction... Just like swinging a sword, she didn't know what to cut or what to protect behind her. .

John held her hand with emotion and squeezed it, as if to cheer her up... and as if to tell her, don't worry, you still have me.

"Aren't you curious about who this Grindelwald is? And what crimes he committed... that made them decide to execute him secretly."

Harry was very curious. In his mind, Dumbledore was the most powerful and greatest wizard... He wanted to know who was qualified to let Principal Dumbledore personally execute him.

"You should really read more books, Harry." Hermione said excitedly... No one will miss the opportunity to show off their strengths. "Gellert Grindelwald, is considered to be the most powerful black man in history. One of the wizards, he and his followers committed numerous crimes. His power spread across the United States and Europe, and he established his power base in a castle called Nurmengard in the middle of the European continent. In 1945 At that time, Dumbledore stood up and had a legendary duel with him at the request of many wizards, and finally defeated him. Grindelwald was then imprisoned in the fortress he built."

"Why didn't they just kill him... Why did I have to wait until now?"

"It's because of Dumbledore... My dad is a member of the Order of the Phoenix. Dumbledore sometimes tells some of his experiences in the Order of the Phoenix... Because Grindelwald is Dumbledore's good brother, so Dumbledore told Wesson Gamor requested that Grindelwald be imprisoned rather than killed..."

"Then why do you want to execute him now?"

"Who knows? I always thought he was a little crazy...my mother also said...even though he is the greatest white wizard."

Ron said nonchalantly, picked up the newspaper on the coffee table, and turned to the next article... This issue of the newspaper has not been delivered to the house yet. Errol must have lost his way again. The old owl should have retired a long time ago. age.

As for this news, John didn't believe it... Maybe the Ministry of Magic has various methods to detect whether the dead one is Grindelwald and whether the saints are dead... but that is Grindelwald and Dumbledore. , the two most powerful wizards in the world, it is impossible for the Ministry of Magic to be more clever than them...

Did Dumbledore really kill Grindelwald?

Stop making trouble. If Dumbledore had killed Grindelwald himself three days ago, the news of his suicide would have come today, not to mention that the plan still lacked so many manpower.

If Lao Deng kills all the saints, who will do it?A mixed bag of Order members?

Don't do it, this is a revolution, if you are not careful you will ruin your reputation.Members of the Order of the Phoenix were not suitable to participate in the early stages of reform... Their reliability was indeed not as reliable as the saints who had been guarding the foot of the mountain for decades.

"What are your plans for Christmas?"

Harry asked the question he had been wanting to ask for the past few days. It was obvious that if Hogwarts hadn't required students not to stay in school during the summer vacation, he would have wished he had been living in the dormitory for the past seven years.

The Dursleys couldn't give him the warmth that Hogwarts gave him.

"Hermione and I are going back...Sorry Harry, I can't spend this Christmas with you." John knew that Harry was not planning to go back. In fact, if he were Harry, he would rather be killed by Voldemort than Stay at the Dursley's to maintain that blood magic.

"My grandpa is moving to England...I should spend this holiday at his manor." Alicia looked at Harry apologetically...Hermione told her some of this junior's situation, Harry himself said it sometimes... so she knew the child would be looking forward to spending Christmas with friends.

"So it's just the two of us, Harry." Ron patted Harry on the shoulder. "Don't look at me like that, buddy. The family has decided to go to Romania this year to visit Charlie and his dragon... Neither George nor I want to go. Look at the dragon.”

Harry was a little excited. He finally didn't have to spend Christmas alone in a small room under the stairs.

He could have snowball fights with Ron and the others, practice Quidditch, play wizard chess... and occupy the prime seat sofa closest to the fireplace.

...

The following days were as usual, with Seamus engaging in explosive art as always, Neville as confused as ever, Malfoy as indifferent as ever, Harry and Ron as always struggling between learning and not learning, John and Hermione showed off her affection in the lounge as always, and Alicia didn't grow taller as always...

This period of time passed very quietly, and no one wanted to take advantage of this little time before the holiday to jump out and make big news.

Slowly, time passed... After a heavy snowfall, the Christmas holiday began on the second day covered with snow.
