Hogwarts Outsider

"How is it possible!" Mr. Rosmerta suddenly shouted.

However, he soon discovered that such a noisy influence would not be very good in the bar, and he quickly lowered his voice: "This is incredible..."

Mr. Rosmerta continued: "...I have heard of so many wizards who eventually turned bad, but the people like James Potter also turned bad. I didn't expect it at all... If they When you were in school, you told me that they would enter Azkaban eventually, and I would definitely say that you drank too much!"

"But that's the truth!" Slughorn murmured.

"Rosmerta, maybe you still remember the situation before Principal Grindelwald came to Hogwarts..."

"Merlin's beard!" Mr. Rosmerta seemed to be frightened, and he quickly lowered his voice again. "Professor Slughorn, you can't just say anything about that time... You must have been drinking too much ! At that time, this bar was still calling a broom..."

Matthew couldn't help but thank Hermione for this pair of gadgets, especially the "button bug, listening device"——

The dialogue between Slughorn and Rosmerta became smaller and smaller; Matthew even suspected that Miss Elaine Shafik beside them might not be able to hear the dialogue between them...

But because the "button tapping device" is stuck to the back of Slughorn's chair and has a certain amplification function, Matthew can barely hear it.

"No... I'm not drunk..." Slughorn retorted, "Before Grindelwald came to Hogwarts, many people at Hogwarts opposed him... and really led those who opposed him. Ours, it was Albus Dumbledore, the dean of Gryffindor College and the Hogwarts transfiguration teacher..."

"... Later... Later Dumbledore failed and he was sent to prison, but his will to resist still remains at Hogwarts...especially at Gryffindor College..."

"You mean..." Mr. Rosmerta's voice became a little trembling, "Jaime Potter and the others... are imprisoned in Azkaban... because..."

"...Yes, James Potter and the others, they conspired to overthrow the rule of Grindelwald, and planned to rescue Albus Dumbledore from the tower of Newmontgard where he was imprisoned... Slughorn smiled suddenly, "A group of innocent children, there is no doubt that they failed in the end..."

"...Someone betrayed them, but before they were arrested, a spy hiding in Hogwarts at the time warned them...They all fled, and Potter was very familiar with Hogwarts' secret tunnels. ... Hogwarts later declared that they violated school rules and expelled them all..."

"Tons, tons!"

With the sound of drinking again, Matthew suspected that Slughorn's face must have been flushed.

Then Slughorn's voice sounded again: "But they are just adult students after all, and they haven't even graduated from Hogwarts; they are not the opponents of those well-trained Aurors... but they are showing It was really good. I avoided the Ministry of Magic's pursuit for several years... But in the end I was caught..."

"...There is only one person, always at large!" Slughorn's voice suddenly became a little more proud:

"Lily Evans! You should remember that charming girl."

"Of course," Mr. Rosmerta seemed to nod his head, "I remember James Potter and Severus Snape. They often fought because of her..."

"...Yes, beautiful, smart, and sensible..." Slughorn added, "Unfortunately, I ended up astray..."

"...I was still very optimistic about her at the beginning, and it turns out that I still didn't look away!"

"So... Potter and the others, what is the connection with Azkaban's fugitives?" Mr. Rosmerta continued to ask, his voice suddenly changed: "Could it be that... those fugitives... Could it be..."

"Yes..." Slughorn said mysteriously, "Don't spread the news, even if few people in the Ministry of Magic know their identities, because they conspired to overthrow Grindel at Hogwarts. Principal Woo’s incident was strictly kept secret... The Auror and Gadevin Robaz, who are stationed on Azkaban Island in the Ministry of Magic, have always had a good relationship with me. He secretly told me..."

"Of course! Definitely!" Mr. Rosmerta seemed to nod repeatedly.

Mr. Rosmerta seemed to mutter to himself: "That is to say... the reason why the Ministry of Magic has sent so many Aurors and so many dementors to defend Hogwarts... is because... Potter, The three of Blake and Pedro...They want to..."

"There is no doubt about it!" Slughorn continued~www.wuxiaspot.com~ They escaped from Azkaban, obviously wanting to continue the terrible plan fifteen years ago... At the same time, this can prove, ten They discovered something at Hogwarts five years ago! "

"Merlin's beard... Merlin's beard... Merlin's beard..."

Mr. Rosmerta seemed to be frightened and muttered over there, "These things are terrible! Professor Slughorn, you must never say it again!"

"I only know so much." Slughorn said indifferently.

...

Mr. Rosmerta seemed to walk away, and as a small bar owner, he obviously did not dare to continue discussing these things.

And Matthew, still in his mind, digested the words Slughorn had just said.

There is no doubt that the amount of information is huge.

But soon, Slughorn’s voice came from the little ears: "Little Elaine, sorry for leaving you out, I went to talk to Rosemerta..."

"... By the way, you said earlier that you wrote to your mother and inquired about the last people your father contacted..."

"Yes." Elaine Shafik's really brilliant voice that day came from his young ears: "My father seemed to have been with two people many times before being imprisoned in Azkaban. One was Lucius. Mr. Malfoy...there is another one, my father never said his name..."

"Is that so..." Slughorn said gently, "So... where is the person who can't be mentioned by name, where is the letter sent to him?"

Matthew quickly raised his ears, and another key message was coming...

"I know this," Miss Shafik said crisply, "He is in Hogsmeade!"

Matthew's face changed suddenly.

The soft little ear in his hand also fell to the ground without being able to hold it firmly.
