Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

There was something in the notes that she cared very much about, and that was the key to the dementor's control method that I wrote from Echristis.You must know that until then, only the Patronus Curse was able to resist and drive away the dementors' attacks. They are souls and not souls. Even if they have entities, ordinary spells cannot defeat them.

Although, according to the notes, only those dementors "born from this castle" can be controlled, it is also an incredible step.You must know that the dementors are the only guards of Azkaban. The wizards are not willing to visit Azkaban except for daily food and drinking water, or special circumstances. As long as they can seal the eyes of the dementors, Ah Zkaban no longer has any constraints.

***********

Although the days of doing nothing are slow in perception, in fact, there is no difference between ordinary days.

The most time-consuming activity every day is once every three days, watching the three-day weight at a time, and watching the "Daily Prophet" what bad things she and Dumbledore said.

Regardless of her, after all, in the eyes of many ordinary people, she does not have many positive images. The Ministry of Magic only needs to describe her instability, and then many people who are deeply disturbed can send letters to Hogwarts. Or the Ministry of Magic, I hope she can stay away from them, away from their children.

They were more willing to pour dirty water on Dumbledore.Unlike her, their strategy for Dumbledore must be cautious. You must know that although his reputation is not as good as his most respected period in the past, it is still a legend in people’s hearts. It has prevented the spread of evil several times and maintained it. A legend of peace and stability.

The initial report of the Ministry of Magic did not directly deny Dumbledore’s merits, but started from his age. This is an inevitable topic, because people also believe that even legends will be old and will be made. When making incorrect decisions.If they want to weaken Dumbledore's influence, they must first cut off his sufficiently dazzling titles.

Zoe noticed that they had taken back Dumbledore’s position as the chief wizard of Wisengamao (the highest court in the wizarding world), because they believed that “his age is no longer suitable for this kind of agile thinking and sharp "The position of vision", he thinks that he should let young people go to the top, rather than "old and undead" (this is very vague) occupying this position for a long time.

Dumbledore did not complain about this, but accepted the decision without resistance.Even if Wisengama is relatively independent of the Ministry of Magic, it is impossible to completely separate from it. We must know that many high-ranking officials of the Ministry are also members of Wisengama.Even those with a low sense of smell have noticed something wrong with this unusual dismissal notice. Knowing that Dumbledore has never made a mistake in his duties, he has no reason to be removed.

The Ministry of Magic moved quickly, and they knew that just dismissing Dumbledore's post would not really make the myth in people's hearts collapse.They soon began to publish black material about Dumbledore in the "Daily Prophet", and any omissions and mistakes made by Dumbledore that could be spoken of could be praised by them.

Zoe felt that even if Dumbledore made a mischievous face in public, it could be misinterpreted by these people as a mental disorder.Recently, they began to advocate Dumbledore’s puzzling standards of employment. Remus Lupin and Ruber Hagrid were brought to the front again. The Ministry of Magic completely ignored their true temperament, just because Lupin was a werewolf. Hagrid, who had the blood of a giant, began to seriously question their safety, as if he would be attacked just by breathing the air in the same room as them.

Of course, it is tiresome to hit the same target all the time, and they also talked about the weird things that happened at Hogwarts.For example, a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor must be replaced every year."Let’s look at the consequences of these poor people. Except for the werewolf who had to get away from the children, Professor Quirrell died violently, Professor Lockhart was lying in St Mungo, Professor Alastor Moody’s identity and even The Death Eaters took the opportunity to enter, and the children actually didn't notice after receiving the bad guy's teaching for a whole year, and even thought he was a very competent professor!"

"Some experts believe that Hogwarts faculty candidates should be strictly controlled, because these bad guys who don't know where they come from are likely to have a devastating effect on our children. And all this stems from Ah I don’t think about Principal Dumbledore’s laissez-faire behavior. He does not strictly examine the newly recruited faculty members. He is willing to give them the opportunity to teach and teach regardless of their background or past. But is this really good for the children?"

"'When I thought that my son might be attacked by werewolves throughout the year, I couldn't eat! Not to mention that he would face the Death Eaters next year. He told me that this bastard actually taught them how to be unforgivable. Curse!'This is a fear from the heart of many parents."

"So, should the current principal of Hogwarts take responsibility for this? He has the responsibility to protect every student in the school, so that they can go to school and return home safely. But because of the accident last year, innocent students were almost caught Involved in murder!" Zoe blinked, and the innocent student was probably talking about Cedric Diggory.

These criticisms have never stopped, only occasionally to prevent the people from getting bored, they start to talk about other things, but they are generally to weaken Dumbledore’s influence in people’s hearts and make him a bad An old foolish fool is no longer worthy of respect.

"Make him a past tense."

Fudge is using all the means he can to achieve this sentence.Zoe sneered at this, but had to start worrying again.

Chapter 8 The Approaching Day (Part 1)

"You should go back to your room and sleep, dear." Molly Weasley patted the girl's back pityingly. "Continue tomorrow. If this goes on, you will wear down your body."

Hermione smiled at her, knowing that her smile must be reluctant and stiff, which would make her look completely different from the "I'm fine" she was trying to say, and Mrs. Weasley hugged her."You are not alone, Hermione. We and Dumbledore are working hard, but this effort must be based on the premise of not dragging down our body. You must have not rested last night."

"...Thank you, I'm just a little anxious. Professor Dumbledore also told me that she would be fine, but I couldn't accept it... You know it was Azkaban, where Hagrid had been there for a while before. , But he told us that it is one of the scariest places in the world... Since even adults can't resist, they will definitely take her wand away, I don't know what to do..." Hermione lowered her head, unconsciously Stroking the edge of the book in his hand.

"Connelly will not do it. At least before the trial begins, I can be sure that he will not attack Zoe." At that time she caught up and gave Dumbledore and Dumbledore the reference material she found. After Lido accepted it, he said to her, “I’ll leave it alone. Since Connelly created Zoe’s momentum and tried to defeat her with this court session, he would not choose to start before that. Those who are dissatisfied with him fall for attack. He will not let dirty water splash on him, which will affect his image as Minister of Magic."

"But he can also torture Zoe, can't he? Just do it secretly... Professor Dumbledore, I have encountered dementors before, a large group of dementors, the kind that even breathe and cannot think, The feeling of dying, there are no positive thoughts in my heart, I just want to die... Now Zoe has to be treated like this every day? None of us knows what she is going through, and there is no reply to the letter. , The request for a meeting cannot be agreed, if something happens to her in Azkaban..." Hermione said in pain.

"...Trust her, Hermione." Dumbledore looked into her eyes slowly. "I know this sounds very perfunctory and ruthless, but we can only trust her consciousness... before she leaves. Have you come to see you?"

Hermione shook her head. In fact, this little incident was also one of the reasons why her anxiety could not be calmed down.

"What do you think this is because of?"

"I don't know, Professor... I think she probably doesn't want me to worry? But when I think that we don't even say goodbye to each other, I can't help but think about accidents... But after thinking about it, I feel anxious. , No matter how many times you tell yourself that nothing will happen..."

"I have a bold guess, probably because I don't think it is necessary." Dumbledore's answer surprised Hermione.

"Of course, I don't want you to worry about it. But as long as you think you will come back, as long as you know there are people and places waiting for her to go back, I don't think Zoe will give up hope. What we should do now is nothing but It’s to do what you should do and be ready to take her back.” Dumbledore flipped through the simplified past cases and analyses at will, “It’s like what you are doing now, yes. It is a great help for me, thank you for your willingness to do your best for Zoe."

"Since Dumbledore said the same, let us believe her, I don't think Zoe would want to wait for her to come back, but see you haggard like this..." Mrs. Weasley said.

"Mrs. Weasley, can you tell me what you have been talking about lately?" Hermione asked suddenly.

"Sorry, dear... Dumbledore doesn't want us to tell you, I think so too, you are too young..."

"No, I shouldn't have to ask this question reluctantly... But there is a new article published in the Daily Prophet, have you read it?"

"We all agree that these are nonsense, but some people want to pour dirty water on Dumbledore. As long as they are rational people, they will not believe these lies." Mrs. Weasley's tone was firm, He Min shook his head.This is not the case. Not all people in this world can think for themselves. Don't those absurd articles last year also have many loyal followers?They just see certain claims without researching them, and they think it is the truth.

"Professor Dumbledore's position is actually very dangerous, right?" She opened her mouth, and finally asked.

"Why do you think so, we all know that Dumbledore can protect yourself. You don't have to worry about him." Mrs. Weasley said gently, "Go, boy, go back to sleep. Close the door and don't let us night The conversation noisy to you."

She told Hermione not to clean up the miscellaneous books and parchment on the table. Hermione looked at the entrance hallway. She noticed that Dumbledore hadn't appeared in the Black House all day today, and he hadn't appeared for two weeks.Even though there were many people coming and going in this mansion that was the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore was not among them as the leader.

Although Mrs. Weasley asked her to go back to sleep, it was not time to rest.There was always a crunch on the stairs of Black’s old house, and Hermione slammed the door open, just in time to see the boys hurriedly hiding something while Ginny was talking to Luna.

"It's not Mrs. Weasley, it's me." Hermione stared at George who had just looked up at the door.

"Why didn't you give us more time, Hermione?"

"Yeah, fortunately, we successfully stuffed the telescopic ears of the wiretap through the door." Fred and his brothers high-five.

"I don't remember that I promised this." Hermione's tone was not very good, and the boys looked at each other without trying to anger her further."Unless you tell me you are not interested in the secrets they told me at all." Ron mumbled.

"I just want to concentrate on thinking about how to acquit Zoe." Hermione walked to Ginny and sat down, and Ginny patted her hand comfortingly.

"I don't think it's a big problem-she hasn't done those things, hasn't she?" George said nonchalantly. "I think it's better to care about...Oh, they started." The three boys sneaked into the corner, sneaking. Fighting for the only telescopic ear.

"But those people are coming fiercely, what if they deny, what if they fabricate evidence indiscriminately, I..." Hermione rubbed her temples in pain.

Ginny looked at her sympathetically: "I think mom is right, you need a good night's sleep."

"I don't want to sleep... I can easily have nightmares now even if I just lie down and close my eyes..." Hermione said impatiently.

"You can put the petals of calming flowers on your nose. The effect of making a sachet is also good. It is easy to wake up after inhaling too much. You can sleep for three days or something." Luna gestured with her hands, "So be sure to pay attention to the weight. "

"Salming flower is a rare plant, Luna." Hermione said helplessly, "and it was added to the'list of non-self-cultivable species' by the Ministry of Magic not long ago. Even if you hold it, you need to go through the qualification inspection of the Ministry of Magic ."

"Is that so? Dad said last time that he would plant a garden." Luna blinked. "He told me that I got a lot of seeds."

"If you want to get out of the house or cause a big mess, do it. The taste of the thing spreads very wide, and it is better than the pure sleeping potion, because it is also very addictive, which eventually leads to Trance and memory loss."

"When will you have fewer weird and dangerous thoughts?" Hermione looked at her. "And don't you worry about Zoe?"

"Worry." Luna stretched her waist. "Do you know that it was my contribution to sorting out the information before? I still told my dad that I was going to a friend's house to play. Why didn't I tell him the truth?"

"I heard Bill and they talk about it, because the existence here is still a secret." Ginny answered, "The Order of the Phoenix was established to fight against mysterious talents, isn't it? They are gathering people, but they need to strictly review their qualifications... …Sirius told me that your father should still be qualified, so you can't tell him about the Order of the Phoenix, saying that this is also to protect your father."

"Then why can we?" Luna asked again."They didn't tell us any useful information." Ginny shrugged, "That's why they would engage in this kind of espionage activities. I dare say I was only allowed to come here because I was from the Weasley family. Because mom and dad have to do things for the Order of the Phoenix, it is impossible to spend more energy going back and forth from the shanty house, it is also very dangerous."

Chapter 9 The Approaching Day (Part 2)

"Yes, Professor Dumbledore asked me to promise that I will never write information related to Black’s old house in the letter, and don’t talk about the holiday dynamics. You can only say something you miss at most, not to mention information. Related matters, because the Ministry of Magic is likely to intercept our letters, because any letter sent to Azkaban will not reach the destination directly...Finally, I listened to the warnings of the adults and stopped sending letters. "Hermione said in confusion.

"They must desperately want to defeat Professor Dumbledore and his supporters." Ginny sighed.At this moment the boys seemed to know something and began to talk quietly.
