Chapter 81 80 Halloween Eve

Chapter 81 80. Halloween

Near noon, after the Quidditch pitch was cleaned and the Mudblood students were preparing to return to the castle, Jon broke away from the second-year team midway and said he had to go to the bathroom.

He climbed out of the bathroom window in the same way as when he went to get the potion materials, and came to a remote location near the wall. Then he hid a piece of paper with the phoenix feather emblem where it was originally placed. A place for potion ingredients.

After doing all this, Jon returned to the bathroom, and then rejoined the Mudblood team. During this period, no one noticed whether he went to the bathroom to use the toilet.

Now that October is here, not only does Quidditch officially begin, it also means it's getting closer to Halloween dinner.

There are only a few days at Hogwarts where all the pure-blood and mixed-blood students can gather together to celebrate, namely the first-year dinner, Halloween dinner, Christmas dinner, and leaving school dinner.

The students in the castle were still very enthusiastic about the first holiday dinner after the start of school.

This enthusiasm is not limited to mixed-blood and pure-blood students. Even Jon can feel that the Mudblood classmates around him seem to be looking forward to this day of the festival.

It's just that their expectations are obviously not imagining a big meal or what kind of candy they can get. They don't dare to think about such things even in their dreams.

They were expecting something else that Jon didn't know, and this expectation only spread among the second-year students. In other grades, he didn't find anything unusual.

This is both reasonable and somewhat unexpected to Jon.

Before arriving at the castle, he had already learned from the conversation between Malfoy and his son in Diagon Alley that the Mudbloods in Hogwarts Castle were not just resigned to being oppressed without any resistance.

He has lived here for almost two months and has learned a lot about some things that happened last semester.

Roughly speaking, the upper-middle and upper-grade Mudblood students privately organized and led the lower-grade Mudbloods, teaching them the true meaning of the insulting name Mudblood, and telling them that children who were born entirely from Muggle families were no better than half-bloods and pure-bloods. Blood is low. In the magical world not long ago, everyone was an equal wizard regardless of their origin.

Apart from this, they had no other choice but to tell the younger children these things, which were completely contrary to the history of magic and ideological lessons they had learned during the day.

Then, during a rally near the end of the semester, they were caught after all.

Castle administrator Dolohov personally fed the leading students Veritaserum, forcing them to tell what they had done. Later, the incident was even reported to Voldemort, who was basically not in Hogwarts Castle.

Afterwards, the Ministry of Magic sent a man, a wizard who was proficient in the Forgetting Charm.

All Mudblood students who participated in this gathering, except for the first grade, had their relevant memories erased, and the original memories of the leading senior students were also modified, and the wizard weaved a story for them. Replace it with a flawless set of memories.

Then in front of all the pure-blood, mixed-blood, and mudblood students in the school, Dolokhov whipped the leading students, beating them until they were breathless, but also asked them to express their deepest gratitude to the school. "Education" means thanks.

This happened when Jon first arrived at Hogwarts Castle that night and saw the student named "Tyler" being hung up. His face was so weird at Dolohov's beatings and insults. The same reason as an emotionless doll.

He was one of the seniors who led these assemblies, and he was the one whose memory was most completely altered.

Only the first-year students at the time were not affected by this memory erasure.

They are only 11 years old. Such a young age is not suitable for large-scale memory erasure. The human brain is the most sensitive, even in the magical world.

In addition, they are only in the first grade and have just arrived in this castle for less than a year. The professors at Hogwarts believe that these students have not been influenced by "abnormal" values ​​for too long, and there will be more in the future. It took six years to correct them, and the consequences of having an example like Taylor were enough to intimidate them, so they only gave them verbal education.

But judging from the current situation, these mudbloods who have now entered the second grade do not seem to be intimidated. In the first month of school, they were indeed very obedient, but after entering October, Others couldn't feel it, but Jon, who was a second-year student himself, felt obvious changes.

Jon was a little surprised that these children who were only 12 years old this year still dared to make some small moves in private after going through what happened last semester. But if you think about it carefully, what would happen if Hermione was there and took the lead? Things are no longer surprising.

The last day of October is Halloween.

After the afternoon classes ended, the pure-blood and mixed-race students were completely liberated. The auditorium had been decorated with jack-o-lanterns, swarms of bats flying around, and skeletons walking around.

The little wizards all put on pure black cloaks and pointed wizard hats and ran around the castle with jack-o'-lanterns. They would reach out to any professor they met and ask for candy.

During such a festival, even the usually cold-faced Vice-Principal Snape would take a handful of candy from his pocket and put it in the student's hand when he saw him hesitating about whether to reach out to him.

However, all this excitement and beauty had nothing to do with the mudblood students.

Under the supervision of Dolohov, they finished an ordinary dinner and were all locked in the dormitory in the basement.

On such a festival, the appearance of the mudblood would only ruin the interest of teachers and students. The only benefit was that there was no work for them to do tonight, and they just had to stay in the dormitory honestly.

The two prefects in charge of patrolling and monitoring also returned to their dormitories after eight o'clock. No one wanted to blow the cold wind in the corridor after such a late time.

Tonight was actually the second time Jon had to go to get the potion materials, but he did not make any rash moves in the dormitory. He had a hunch that something different would happen on such a night.

Sure enough, at about nine o'clock, when the dinner party should be in full swing in the auditorium, there was a gentle knock on Jon's bedroom door.

The three chapters promised yesterday must be finished, and there is one more chapter around one o'clock in the morning.
