In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

Chapter 146 144. The Disappeared Person

In previous years, recruiting students on a horse-drawn carriage was actually quite difficult.

There are so many professors in the car, and every wizard in the Order of the Phoenix has their own duties. No one has so much free time to wander around Muggle society all day long. They can only try their luck among children aged 11 years or older near the start of school every year.

Fortunately, there is only so much population in the UK. As long as you have good Muggle population information first, and then conduct screening and search, you will always gain something.

And in the meantime, they would inevitably run into the admissions professor in the castle many times, just like when Lily took Jon away from the orphanage after confronting Barty.

In the past, the enrollment period every year was thrilling. Lily and Mag, who were mainly responsible for this task, would experience an adventure almost every time they brought new students into the carriage.

Lily was in better condition for some special reasons, but Mag had been on the edge of a knife many times.

But this year, they finally no longer have to take this risk, and can go out to pick up the children back to the carriage long in advance.

The arrival of new students provides new things to do for the bored students on the carriage. These children, who are preparing to enter first grade, have just lost their families and now need others to comfort them.

Every new student from a Muggle family, after being told that he is actually a wizard and coming to Hogwarts to learn magic, Lily or McGonagall will cast an existence erasure spell similar to the Forgetting Curse on their identity.

All traces of their existence in this world will be erased, including files, photos, and memories, as if they never existed at all.

This is actually a pretty cruel thing.

It is said that during the early days of the carriage's exile, there was a great controversy within the school and the Order of the Phoenix as to whether to use such protection methods for the new students they recruited.

But at the beginning, when Voldemort had just ruled the magical world and suppressed Dumbledore and the people of the Order of the Phoenix the most, the Ministry of Magic found no bottom line and found the Muggle wizards' family members in the Order of the Phoenix and arrested them. , as a blackmail.

Some of these captured Muggles were successfully rescued, while others completely became a pain in the hearts of some people in the Order of the Phoenix...

After that, no one raised any objection to erasing the memory and existence of Muggle students. After Lily and McGonagall took the Muggle students away, they would also properly deal with their parents and try to hide them as much as possible. They had a child once and got picked up from a magic school.

Because today's Ministry of Magic has absolutely no shame in dealing with rebel forces like the Carriage and the Order of the Phoenix. Once it is determined that a child picked up by a carriage will be trained into a rebel with "rebellious" ideas in the future, they will do whatever it takes.

Most of these 11-year-old children do not understand. They do not know the grudges and grudges in the wizarding world and their own special identities. They only know that the appearance of the Hogwarts professor will separate them from their parents.

Generally, when conditions permit, Lily and McGonagall will explain clearly to these Muggle parents the situation in the magical world and the situation of their children.

After proving the existence of magic, they will show these Muggle parents some prophetic daily newspapers that published policies about blood classes. Most parents can still see the reality clearly. They are more unwilling to separate their flesh and blood than to separate their children. Their children become slaves.

Muggle students like Jon who are orphans do not need to take this into consideration.

The vast majority of orphans with magical talents have little affection for the orphanage that adopted them. In such mixed growth conditions without blood ties as a bond, these children are almost always isolated from others due to their own specialness.

And the orphanage is relatively special, and the Ministry of Magic generally does not take action against the adults and children here, so Lily did not lie to Jon at that time, even if she snatched the students from the orphanage in front of Barty Jr., The people in the orphanage are not in any danger.

Students like Hermione and others who were rescued from the castle this year were not idle the night they were picked up in the carriage. Moody and other members of the Order of the Phoenix who assisted Lupine and others in breaking out from Azkaban were not idle. The emergency also completed the transfer of Hermione and her parents, away from the Ministry of Magic's sight.

The people of the Order of the Phoenix can only try their best to do these things.

Protect the families of these children, and then tell these children who have been completely forgotten by their parents and family members that maybe one day in the future, they can erase the memory and existence magic released by their families, so that they can reunite with their families openly in the future. Walking in the sunshine.

This is the purpose for which they were brought to Hogwarts on the carriage, and this is also the ultimate goal for which most of the Muggle students on the carriage strive.

Not only for your own freedom and equality, but also for your family!

After August started, in less than two weeks, Lily and McGonagall had already brought all this year's freshmen to the carriage. There were a total of 9 Muggle students. This was already recorded in the Book of Admission. , this year all Muggle students meet the age limit.

All 9 students were brought into the Hogwarts carriage, which means that this year's castle did not deceive any "Mudblood". In addition to the first and second grade students brought back by Jon, a whole number of "Mudbloods" have appeared in the castle. There are vacancies for Mudbloods in three grades.

This is a very serious matter for Voldemort's policy. After all, he has improved the status of pure-bloods. The key to stabilizing mixed-blood wizards is to use the oppression of "Mudbloods" to compensate for the pure-bloods' original encroachment on the interests of mixed-bloods. .

And now that there are fewer and fewer "Mudbloods", the bottom oppressive class is gradually disappearing, and the mixed-blood wizards who were originally in the middle class will become the bottom class.

This class sinking will cause huge chaos to Voldemort's already stable rule.

Logically speaking, what he should do most now is either to find ways to destroy the carriage, even if he does not kill all the students, destroy the existing teaching place, or to regain the Book of Access and the Pen of Acceptance.

But it has been four or five months, and Voldemort has made no move at all. It feels like books and pens have been stolen, students in the castle have been rescued, and the prisoners in Azkaban have escaped. It doesn't matter to him. any impact.

Jon always felt that something was wrong with this situation, and the current calm was not reassuring at all.

Just when all nine freshmen were picked up on the Hogwarts carriage, and the students and professors on the carriage were preparing to hold a small welcome ceremony for them in the restaurant in advance, something unexpected happened. It finally happened!

Percy is missing.

His disappearance was discovered when Professor McGonagall wanted to find the student president to help manage the students in the restaurant.

No one knew where he went. It was like he had disappeared from the world. Just when someone wanted to find him, he disappeared from the carriage.

Mag immediately noticed something was wrong. She immediately called all the students into the dining hall, and then conducted a large search of the entire carriage with other professors, but still found nothing.

Percy's things were still in his dormitory, and even his freshly laundered robe was still hanging by the bed, but he was nowhere to be found.

I have to get up at four o'clock in the morning to go back to my hometown. I will start a chapter tonight and finish it tomorrow afternoon.
