Chapter 180 The Materialistic Middle-Aged Woman
Compared with these bloody historical events, what Sirius is saying now is more like a fairy tale - the bad guys control the good guys, the bad guys kill the good guys with a beam of light, hurt the good guys with a spell, etc. How demonic is this?
Even the illustrations in "History of Magic" are a hundred times more brutal than what he described.
In Hermione's endless complaints, Sirius finally completed his mission, said he had other things to do, and Apparated away very casually.
She didn't understand why Sirius wanted to mislead Harry into thinking that Karkaroff and Snape were not good people, but she still echoed his words because she believed that Chen Bin and Dumbledore were just, but she just couldn't see through their plan.
On this side, Sirius had just completed his mission; on the other side, a female man in the activity room was cursing the Sirius.
"Aaron!!!! If that pervert steps into my three-meter range again, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless!!!!"
(`Д)ゞ: "Sister, you are not young anymore. You will be 29 next year. Isn't it good to have a man chasing you?"
(▼菜▼ # ): "That poor old bastard, old and wretched, thinks he is a 20-year-old handsome man, bah! He follows me around the activity room every day. I have already hidden in the monitoring room and locked the door, but he actually asked Lupin to get the key to open the door! This kind of social scum is not worthy of licking my toes!"
Chen Bin was speechless.
After a moment, he asked carefully: "I don't see what's wretched about him. This is how you chase girls. Do you dislike him because he is poor or old?"
"Neither of them is up to standard!" Anastasia roared while wiping the egg liquid on her hands.
(-"- Anger): "Tell me the truth, is it because of age or money? "
Chen Bin took off his boxing gloves and made a snapping sound when he clenched his fists.
Anastasia calmed down instantly. She was very clear about Chen Bin's close combat ability.
"He is a little old, but the most fatal thing is that he is poor." Anastasia muttered in a low voice, and then added: "What I can't stand most is that he still thinks he is a handsome young man at such an old age, but age is the biggest problem. "
Chen Bin was speechless again. Isn't it because he is old and poor?
In the original story, although Sirius was a fugitive, his family should be quite rich - there is a mysterious mansion, a large number of family collections, and money to give his godson a sky-high price Firebolt, which is a high-end product that even the Bulgarian national team cannot afford.
However, in reality, Chen Bin talked to Sirius about his assets, but he turned out to be a pauper, and a middle-aged waste who is not good at managing money!
His mother's will was to give almost all of the inheritance to Sirius's cousin, that is, the murderer who killed Sirius in the original destiny - Bellatrix Lestrange. Because his mother believed that this woman had the traditional qualities of Black and could continue the glory of the family.
Therefore, except for the ancestral house that could not be given to bloodlines other than direct descendants, Mrs. Black gave her everything she could, including the family treasury, the property in Gringotts, and a large number of shops and real estate. If many inherited collections were not placed in the ancestral house and were considered part of the ancestral house, Sirius could only inherit a broken house.
When he gave the Firebolt to Harry, even he himself did not know how much money was left in his personal account. As a result, the supplier directly deducted the money from his account, and when he regained his freedom, he found that there were less than 500 gold galleons left!
If Anastasia knew this inside story, she would not only dislike him for being old and poor, but also dislike him for not being able to take care of himself.
Chen Bin had no time to pay attention to this couple who were destined not to be lovers, and returned to the study to see if Kate had prepared the lesson. . Since she became a professor, she would rather prepare more lessons than go out for a walk.
Is it a rare day to visit Hogsmeade?
During this period, the terminal embarrassment cancer still lingered on Harry and Hermione, but the two still pretended that nothing happened.
After breakfast on Sunday, she still took the two to the kitchen to predict the content, first to get Winky's words, then to talk about their rights, and finally they were listed as unwelcome people.
Now Hermione has no intention of fighting for their rights, but believes Chen Bin's point of view: house elves without the blood curse are powerful and dangerous; they are happy and happy with the status quo with the blood curse.
This is an irreconcilable contradiction. The wizard population is so small, giving these creatures freedom is not a good thing. It would only threaten more wizards and Muggles who had almost no ability to fight back.
She thought carefully that Dobby might be a small group of house elves who had eased some of the blood curse. If it was allowed to continue to ease it, or even its offspring directly broke the blood curse, would they remember Harry's kindness and not kill his offspring?
This feeling of following the prophecy was not pleasant, but Hermione still recovered 90% of the events until one morning, a large number of owls flew to her table, and one of them delivered a letter to her.
She stared at the letter, struggling in her heart whether she should open it.
"Damn it, what on earth--" Hermione still said the same content according to the prophecy, took the letter sent by the gray owl, and read it.
"Oh, oh!" She said angrily, her face turned red.
"What's going on?" Ron asked in confusion.
"This... This is ridiculous! She thrust the letter towards Harry, and he saw that it was not written in handwriting but seemed to be made up of letters cut out of Witch Weekly.
"You're a bad girl. Harry Potter deserves someone better. Go back to your Muggle roots."
She followed the prophecy again and again, until she saw the last letter, and her hands trembled.
The paper of this letter must be soaked in undiluted pus from the tuber of Babo. You can smell a faint smell of gasoline just through the envelope. As soon as the envelope is opened, a yellow-green liquid will spurt out, covering both of her hands. It was covered with big yellow blisters.
In the prophecy, she might have been too angry to ignore these small details, but in reality she already knew the outcome, and it took great courage to face this heart-wrenching torture.
Under the puzzled gazes of Harry and Ron, she held back tears and reached for the letter with trembling hands.
At this moment, the envelope suddenly floated up, dodged Hermione's hand, and passed behind her.
"Dangerous magic items." Caitlina's voice sounded from behind her, the envelope hovering in front of her wand.
Hermione wanted to snatch the letter back because it was her destiny, otherwise it might affect the prophecy.
However, Kate shook her head slightly, pointed her eyes at Chen Bin on the stage, and then said: "Students should be protected from dangerous objects on campus. Professor Black, please send this letter and the owl to the Ministry of Magic. And explain to them the dangers of this incident. Hogwarts will prosecute these thugs who ignore the law."
Sirius took the letter, told Lao Deng twice, and then rushed to the Ministry of Magic. At the same time, the students also started to boo, but Professor McGonagall came to the benches to stop the students from talking to each other.
"Everyone. This is a very dangerous slander and violent attack." Dumbledore glanced at the crowd and said decisively: "We will appoint legal representatives to initiate a lawsuit against the publication that published the slander, requiring them to compensate, apologize and Clarification, otherwise we need the Ministry of Magic to give us the power to fight back."
As soon as these words came out, all the students were chilling, and the students who had slandered Hermione before were even trembling.
Hermione looked at Chen Bin on the stage with grateful eyes, but this guy pretended that it had nothing to do with him, and whistled at the ceiling.
Yes, this guy did come up with this method. Rita Skeeter's line has no impact on the main plot at all. It is only a small part of the main plot of campus abuse. At most, it only allows Harry to experience the complexity of adult society. Now that you've almost experienced what you should feel, it's time to fight back against this bitch.
Hogwarts does not have a legal representative at all, but the Namah family does, and the evidence and prosecution documents are prepared. If Rita Skeeter is not ruined, Chen Bin's name can be written backwards.
Without incident, Hermione went on to take Hagrid's "Care of Magical Creatures" course, and witnessed Ron's obsession with money and low self-esteem. Hagrid asked the students to lead a Niffler to dig out gold coins in the ground, but before get out of class, he asked everyone to take out the gold coins of these little leprechauns, because they disappeared after a few hours.
Now Ron remembered that on the day of the World Cup, he used the leprechaun's gold coins to repay Harry for the panoramic telescope he gave him. The less Harry cared about it, the more Ron envied him for having more money than he could remember.
Ron poked the potatoes with the tip of his fork and said sadly, "I really hate being poor."
When Hermione saw this, she once again remembered what Caitlina said, there are many people in this world who do not have a weekly salary of 10 gold galleons. It turned out that she was Queen Mary, and she asked such idiotic questions as "Why don't you eat cake?"
Two days later, Wizards Weekly and the Daily Prophet gave in and promised to issue an apology and clarify their reputation on the full cover and front page.
What does it mean to have a letter of indictment handed over to Hogwarts by Naama's legal staff? This is a letter of challenge from the most powerful and wealthy family in the British wizarding world. Moreover, Lao Deng said he would consider using the power to counterattack.
What is the wizard's right to fight back? Wizards duel! If one party thinks that the other party has offended, no one is willing to admit their fault, and they object to a small civil case being handed over to the Wizengamot, then use this ancient method to solve it.
Don't think this is ridiculous, even in modern times Muggles still use dueling to solve problems.
