In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

"Judging from the current situation, the French magic world is generally stable. The profit-seeking faction headed by Minister Amalric is actually very clear about their purpose. The entire French magic world will be hierarchically ruled by blood like the United Kingdom. They will not be given any To bring more benefits, they just want to use their current stance to win the support of those established pure-blood families, that is, to use their political leanings to defraud money."

"Even those old pure-blood families who truly believe in the theory of pure-blood superiority know very well that without sufficient strength, they have no way to implement the same political policies as the United Kingdom in France. They have never considered giving Find yourself a master and choose to obey Voldemort's idea of ​​handing over the supreme power of the French Ministry of Magic."

"They are very greedy for the benefits that British pure-blood wizards are currently getting, but they can only be greedy. The profit-seeking faction like Amalric is actually an attempt by them to use them to judge the promotion of pure blood in the magic world. How strong is the resistance to superiority theory?”

"The real threat to the current situation is actually the majority of mixed-blood wizards. According to the new pure-blood theory of the British Ministry of Magic's policy, these people should be classified as pure-bloods and enjoy the benefits of pure-bloods."

"They don't have as much power as traditional pure-blood families, so they really hope that the French magic world can become like the UK, which reorganizes social classes and redivides the power cake so that they can get a bigger piece than before. Even surrendering to the Dark Lord for this is not an impossible thing."

"These mixed-race wizards are the largest in number, but they generally do not have access to the real core power of the French Ministry of Magic, so they will not have much impact on the current situation for the time being."

Bill held the information in his hand and analyzed the form for Sirius seriously, but Sirius was eating the steak tastelessly and didn't seem to be in the mood to listen.

"How is our contact with the woman named Roland going?"

"The wizard justice doesn't seem to want to cooperate too much with us. She doesn't seem to want to attract the attention of the Dark Lord because she has too much contact with us. She is preparing to convene a temporary meeting of parliamentarians to pass this The meeting will oust the minister who only wants to make money, and then continue to fight against the pure-blood factions within the ministry."

Sirius snorted.

"Does she think that as long as they don't have too much to do with us, the Dark Lord won't pay attention to them? Stupid woman."

Facing his boss, Bill felt a little helpless.

In fact, the investigation work in France was originally mainly carried out by Arthur Morley, he and Charlie, and the entire Weasley family.

But because of Percy's incident on the carriage, even if no one in the Order of the Phoenix would doubt the loyalty of Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, they would take the initiative to avoid suspicion and put down their work temporarily.

So the work in France was handed over to Sirius, who came over from England, and Bill and Charlie remained under him to continue to be responsible for the detection and collection of intelligence.

It's just that Sirius's character is definitely qualified to be a thug, but if he is asked to be a leader, he is not so competent.

However, the Order of the Phoenix's intelligence collection work in France has not fallen behind. What Bill just reported is the result of the few months they have been here.

"So what are we going to do here next." Sirius finished the last piece of steak, then looked at Bill and stared, "Just wait and spend time with that woman like this?"

Bill explained to him.

"According to the task given to us by Dumbledore, we need to stay here at least until the end of the parliamentary meeting after Halloween to see whether the final result is Roland winning or Minister Amalric staying. This is related to the political direction of the French Ministry of Magic. .”

"That means we have to stay here for nearly a month!"

Sirius complained angrily, but he didn't say anything more after that. When it came to such serious matters, even if he was conflicted in his heart, at least he wouldn't cause trouble for others.

After the report at dinner time, Sirius and Bill said good night, and when they were about to go back to the room to rest, Bill suddenly took out another letter from his pocket and handed it to him.

"When I came, an owl delivered a letter from Hogwarts. The envelope said it was for you."

Sirius took the letter from his hand doubtfully, and then opened the envelope in front of Bill.

The content of the letter was very short, so short that he just glanced at it and read the entire content.

The next second after reading the letter, he froze in place like a clay sculpture.

After delivering the letter, Bill, who was about to go back to his room to rest, stopped when he saw Sirius's reaction, and asked in confusion.

"Did something happen?"

Sirius didn't reply, but his hand holding the parchment became harder and harder, even his knuckles turned white, and his fingers couldn't stop trembling.

He gritted his teeth tightly, his eyes filled with uncontrollable hatred and rage.

".He's at Hogwarts"

Bill thought something big had happened on the carriage, and he returned to Sirius's side nervously.

"Who's at Hogwarts?"

"A despicable! Shameless! Dirty rat!!!"

He roared, put the letter in his hand into his pocket, and then stared at Bill closely with the corners of his bloodshot eyes.

"Help me prepare the Floo back to England! We need it now!"

Bill frowned.

"What about our work here? Who will hand over the information that Charlie and I compiled? The three of us are already very nervous."

Sirius said loudly as he paced anxiously around the living room.

"I will ask Dumbledore to send someone again when I get back, but I have to go!"

Bill looked at Sirius in silence for a few seconds, and finally avoided his gaze, sighed and compromised.

"Okay, I'll go get ready."

Dumbledore didn't know about Sirius' return to England until 11 o'clock in the evening.

Although Bill informed him immediately when he was preparing to build a floo network back to the UK, by the time Dumbledore received the news, Sirius had already applied to board the carriage in the UK.

Dumbledore was not surprised by this.

He knew very well that maybe Lily would not tell this matter, but it was impossible for Lupine, who had a deep relationship with Sirius, not to tell him in a letter. And once he knew about it, there was no way he would still be sitting in France. live.

Near midnight, when the students were all asleep, the carriage stopped in an alley of a city. Hagrid, who was sitting in the driver's seat, waved to a black dog on the roadside. The black dog The dog jumped onto the carriage and came to Hagrid's side.

The carriage started moving forward again, and Sirius returned to his own self.

"Hi, we haven't seen each other for many years, Sirius." Hagrid greeted him happily.

But Sirius' face was not very pretty, and he responded with a hoarse voice.

"Good evening, Hagrid. I remember the last time we met was five years ago, before I went to Azkaban."

"So what are you going to do when you come to Hogwarts this time? Visit an old friend?" Hagrid obviously didn't know what Sirius was doing now.

Sirius took the cup of tea he handed him, the gloom lingering on his face. He drank the tea in one gulp, and then walked towards the carriage.

"Yes, I did come to visit. Old friend!"

Looking at Sirius's back as he opened the door and walked into the carriage, Hagrid felt a little baffled, but he didn't delve into it. His main responsibility was just to drive the carriage, and other things naturally had to be taken care of by others.

After Sirius entered the carriage, he knocked on the door of the principal's office without going anywhere else.

Dumbledore was obviously waiting for him here.

"I want to stay and catch him with my own hands!" Sirius didn't have any unnecessary nonsense. He stated his request straight to the point as soon as he entered the door.

What he didn't expect was that Dumbledore didn't dissuade him or say anything as he imagined, but nodded calmly.

"I have arranged a room for you. You can stay here tonight. I will announce to the students at breakfast tomorrow that there is a new guard on the carriage."

This made Sirius stunned. He looked at Dumbledore and asked tentatively.

"Aren't you angry that I came back from France on my own initiative?"

"You have already appeared here. Even if I have any other emotions, it is useless. In this case, it is better to catch the person lurking in the carriage." Dumbledore said softly.

He did not seem to be angry at all, but had arranged everything before Sirius arrived.

This immediately made Sirius breathe a sigh of relief. He respected Dumbledore very much and regarded the old man as his closest elder, so even if he insisted on coming back, he still cared about Dumbledore's attitude.

"Bill said that if there are only two of him and Charlie on the French side, they will be too busy, and you need to send another person there."

Dumbledore shook his head.

"No need. When you returned to England, I already asked them both to come back. There is no need for anyone to stay in France."

Sirius looked more relaxed.

"There is really no need to waste manpower there. Bill just completed the report to me five hours ago. The situation in France is stable, and there is no need to keep people there."

Dumbledore looked confused and nodded calmly.

"Go back and rest. You have to meet with the students tomorrow to let them know who you are."

"If I just show up at school without concealment, won't that mouse be scared away?"

"I'll help you make up an identity and then change your appearance."

Sirius felt that Dumbledore was very well prepared, and he soon left the principal's office and went to find the room that had been prepared for him in advance.

And just after he left, Dumbledore silently looked at an old blank parchment on his desk.

After a moment, he took out his wand and tapped the paper gently, erasing the magic on it.

Then he called out the name of a portrait on the wall behind him.

"Dalys, please go to Durmstrang."

Among the portraits, an elderly witch with a kind face opened her eyes.

"What words do you need me to bring?"

"Tell Gellert that the plan has been advanced and ask him to prepare as soon as possible."

Delis then disappeared into the picture frame. At this time, the other portraits of the principal on the wall stopped snoring softly, and they all focused their attention on Dumbledore.

"Have things reached this worst point?" an old wizard with a goatee asked with a worried look.

Dumbledore leaned back in his chair. He looked at the burning candle on his desk, crossed his hands in front of him, and his eyes were deeper than ever before.

"It was much worse than we imagined. He gave me the most powerful counterattack, Phineas. But before this, I didn't even notice it. It wasn't until he started to show a sarcastic face to me that I It was too late to realize what he had been preparing to do all along."

The old wizard named Phineas screamed sadly.

"It's all my fault, my good-for-nothing great-grandson! He is simply a disgrace to the Black family!"

"It's not his fault. Even if he doesn't come back, things have reached a point of no return." Dumbledore looked a little tired and narrowed his eyes. "However, in the face of such a worst outcome, we can't do anything about it." It’s not that there are no back-up preparations.”

On the second Wednesday of October, when the students on the carriage came to the dining hall for breakfast early in the morning, they discovered that there was a strange face in the school.

During breakfast time, Dumbledore also introduced this tall and handsome young wizard to everyone.

"Nigellus Dippet, an excellent wizard, will be responsible for security on the carriage for the rest of the term."

To put it bluntly, the job Dumbledore assigned him was that of a security guard. In fact, it would not be impossible for him to serve as a professor of a course. After all, the four professors in the school basically wear multiple hats.

It's just that Sirius is obviously not in the mood to come here to teach. What's more, these semesters have already begun. Each professor's work has been clearly assigned, and it is not suitable to transfer part of the work to him.

Although the students were a little curious about this new "security guard", they didn't ask any more questions.

No one has forgotten that this school year is not peaceful at all. First, Percy rebelled, and then the dementors attacked. The man hiding in the carriage has not been caught yet. There is nothing wrong with having an extra protective force.

Jon was not too surprised by the appearance of this unknown wizard. With the news about the rat, it was strange that there was not one more person on the carriage. The purpose of concealing his identity was to prevent the rat from finding out that it had been exposed. identity.

Now that the big black dog is here, all the Avengers are gathered together on this carriage.

4000, there is another chapter of 4000 at the end. If you can make it through the night, I will post it in the early morning. If you can't, I will make it up tomorrow.
