Chapter 93 North Sea

There is a dark story behind the case of Sirius.

When Sirius was imprisoned, he summed it up in one sentence: Say you are, you are, and you are not.

Without going through the formal process, he was directly labeled and sent to prison.

"Peter Pettigrew was destroyed by you, with only one little finger left. You are the only living insider. If you didn't betray him, who else could be? I don't want to grind my teeth with you, so get out of here and go to Azkaban!"

This is roughly the rhetoric, Sirius was qualitatively imprisoned.

Looking at this case now, on the surface it is Barty Crouch's fault, which is too hasty, but in fact there are factors of being used by others.

He knew this very well, but he couldn't explain it clearly.

In this context, he chose to cover the lid.

Sirius has committed such a heinous crime that he cannot be released on bail and is not allowed to visit the prison.

This is what he single-handedly facilitated, nothing to blame.

He has big eyes but low hands, and always underestimates his abilities, which are his major flaws.

It is not surprising that he staged the story of his seriously ill wife being imprisoned to serve Barty Crouch Jr. and dying in prison, and his son being privately imprisoned in his own house and finally escaping.

For this person, Kane decided to make an exception because of his performance in the original history line before his death.

In the Sirius case, he gave Crouch two options.

Or, solve it in private and make this case into a beautiful article. He shirked on the grounds of 'it's not that I'm not strong, but that the opponent is too cunning'.

To be more specific, Peter Pettigrew's strategy of cutting off his finger to survive is too clever.

Or, just face the group of lawsuits from the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce, a whole set of regulations will hit Crouch in the face, and major newspapers will also expose his dereliction of duty and hasty trial in the past.

It doesn't need to be particularly related. The fact that his son is a Death Eater will be linked to wronging a good man and going to jail, thus expanding a bunch of negative speculations.

This is a multiple-choice question that as long as the IQ is online, you will know how to choose.

Barty Crouch says he has an IQ on the line.

As compensation for Sirius, Crouch is to help concoct a series of actions that can clear up the grievances and restore Sirius' reputation, including special reports on a global scale.

Of course, Crouch will also use this to perform, such as spraying Grindelwald, and then presenting some plausible evidence to prove that Death Eaters and dark wizards are still secretly active, waiting for opportunities, and asking the Ministry of Magic of various countries to be more vigilant .

He was originally a popular candidate for the British Minister of Magic, but after all, his reputation was damaged because of Barty Jr. Just this year, against the background of Dumbledore's refusal to serve, he lost to Cornelius Fudge.

He was originally the director of the Department of Legal Enforcement, and now he is the minister of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department, so he can be considered to be able to catch the heat of Grindelwald's escape from prison.

The specific information and intelligence were obtained by Kane's Zodiac intelligence network, and this information will help fight Grindelwald and his gang.

Especially with the reward of tens of millions of Galleons, Kane has reason to believe that at least for a period of time, those people will be immobilized and they will not dare to act recklessly.

And he will talk to those people about the kidnapping of Stanley Shafik after the 'Dark Solar System' project and the War Witch Club go into orbit.

Of course, if someone can wipe it out before then, he would be happy to see it. He has a lot of work on hand, at least before the swarm goes online, he has no plans to kick his feet on the international stage.

Dealing with Barty Crouch will take time.

And he also fully considered the troubles of happiness that Lupine needs to face after becoming famous, so he arranged for Lupine to go to Azkaban to handle errands after five days of enrollment.

On September 6th, Remus John Lupine, who was already on the road to success, was more stylish than Fudge, the British Minister of Magic, wearing a three-piece royal blue suit with vertical stripes.

Wearing a dark blue magic woolen coat (high latitudes, especially the North Sea area that is about to go, is already very cold), and leaning on a civilized staff, he appeared on the streets of New Street in Hogsmeade Town.

Originally, he had a leg problem in his right leg, which would be very uncomfortable in winter, and he used to lean on a stick. However, after becoming an alpha wolf, he recovered long ago.

So now there is another reason for leaning on a stick, not for pretending, but because it is a weapon, a staff.

The magic energy is pressed inside like a bullet pressing a magazine, and it can release several times of "thousand bullets", that is, a bunch of magic energy bullets. In order to make up for his lack of mid-range and long-range combat effectiveness.

The Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce has developed the town of Hogsmeade with astonishingly high efficiency.

The main body is the fir mountain villa, with the mountains facing south, the lake on the west, and the forest on the east. This forest is connected to the forbidden forest. It is an artificial forest and a secondary forest, and the trees are relatively sparse.

The fir mountain villa has its own pattern, with a vine fence outside, intertwined vines, and dotted with floral decorations. It looks thin, but in fact it has extremely high protection.

The interior of the villa is divided into seven floors, and each floor has houses and platforms. The style is close to the style of the Muggle community, ingenious, warm, neat and unique.

From the middle of the mountain to the top of the mountain, the upper four floors are the staff residences of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce, and the lower three floors are commercial housing. They are not full, but they are not short of popularity.

In addition to the villa, the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce has built a lakeside pier, as well as functional facilities such as a fishing platform and a swimming platform.

Sauron's magic restaurant and bagpipe inn were also opened, which changed the layout of Hogsmeade from a crooked 1 to a 7, adding a main road on the side street.

This road, called New Street or Chamber of Commerce Street, is flat and wide. It connects to the pier in the west, goes up to the villa in the north, and then turns down to the original Hogsmeade Old Street.

A series of functional facilities have been added to New Street, which has greatly improved the living comfort of Hogsmeade, and there is even a large fireplace that goes directly to Diagon Alley. became a town.

At present, there are 1,223 residents here, and the resident population is more than 1,500. Although there are Muggle families who recognize the life of wizards, this data is still compelling enough.

Including the students and teachers of Hogwarts, almost half of the British wizarding community is here (the proportion of Muggle families has increased).

It is precisely because of this that the Three Broomsticks Bar, Pig's Head Bar and the like did not suffer from poor business just because the store of the Magic Eye Chamber of Commerce appeared. On the contrary, due to the increasing importance of Hogsmeade, the traffic of wizards has increased greatly, including foreign wizards. People will always find the one that suits their taste best, so the business is good.

The only thing is that Hogwarts was originally open to students to go shopping in Hogsmeade, and the restrictions are stricter. After all, when there are more people, the safety will inevitably decrease.

After the King's Cross incident, just later in the day, the Ministry of Magic sent a group of Aurors to Hogsmeade to see that they were preparing to stay permanently. In other words, Hogsmeade also has the police now. up.

This matter, the influence of the station attack incident has further fermented, and it has become a hot topic in various bars.

Lupine has also become a celebrity because of his performance in the incident, and the "Daily Prophet" has no shortage of flattering articles-a man with courage and reason, who composes a magnificent chapter of life with unparalleled self-discipline.

So now, Lu Ping is truly living in the sun, with status, status, a small fortune, and a bright future.

Hogsmeade became more prosperous day by day. People he knew and did not know greeted him on the road, and he smiled and nodded.

This feeling is great, and it also makes him more determined to do well the work assigned by the chamber of commerce.

Via the Great Fireplace in New Street, arrive at Giles, the northernmost point of the British Isles, where there is a ferry to St Margarets Hope on South Ronaldsay Island, which also stops at the Fireplace.

Then go to Sandy Island, Fair Isle, Sumburg on Mainland, Mossbank, Garcher, Barafuth on Unst, and then north, you will arrive.

In fact, Azkaban is not too far from Hogsmeade, specifically in the northeast of the Shetland Islands, about 400 kilometers north-northeast.

It's just that it crosses the 60th parallel north latitude, which is inaccessible, and the way of passage is single and cumbersome. It is called a place of exile by wizards of the International Federation of Magic.

In the past few years, it has become a place of bitter cold where exile punishment in disguised form is implemented.

When Lupine came here, he only saw two wizard guards. One was old and was comparable to Dumbledore, and the other was a young man who just graduated from Hogwarts last year. He didn't know what he had done wrong or offended. Who was thrown here in the name of experience.

These two probably rarely see living people, they are full of chatter, and they chat endlessly.

Lupine was very fortunate to come together after reuniting with the lawyers from the chamber of commerce, who were able to interact with the two of them in a friendly manner.

As for him, he only needs to face the dementor directly.
