Hogwarts Kryptonian - Chapter 298 Pay off the debt
Although Lu Yunkai held Bellatrix’s hair and wand in his hand, he understood that now was not the time to hand it over to Hermione.
Otherwise, he would have to face explaining to the three of them how he could steal the most important thing to the wizard from Bellatrix.
Lu Yunkai decided to wait three days before taking it to Hermione and the others.
This was just enough time for Ron and Harry to digest the news that they had been mentally prepared for, but had been unable to accept.
As for Lu Yunkai himself, he also has other things to be busy with.
The day after Lu Yunkai woke up, Narcissa, in the name of Voldemort, notified Yaxley, who was monitoring a group of Muggle-born wizards building a prison on the isolated island of Azkaban, and asked him to report to Voldemort at Malfoy Manor that afternoon. The construction progress of Azkaban.
After he arrived at Malfoy Manor, he did not see Voldemort. As Death Eaters, of course they did not dare to ask such death-seeking questions as “Why did the Dark Lord call me here but he went out again?” They could only Wait there.
And when he saw Nagini sitting quietly next to him, he didn’t dare to say anything.
They waited from afternoon to evening, and Voldemort still “didn’t come back”, so they could only eat first…
A cup of black tea and everything goes well.
Yaxley certainly didn’t expect that he would stumble in this place.
In addition, the “venom” is really beyond the knowledge of many wizards…
He left peacefully.
After Yaxley was “solved”, Nagini and Lucius took no action, and the matter was handed over to the Order of the Phoenix.
Snape got in touch with Kingsley, and Kingsley, who had been responsible for monitoring Thicknesse, learned that the puppet Minister of Magic had only been cast under the Imperius Curse. With a lifting spell, the matter of the Minister of Magic was solved.
When Thicknesse woke up and realized that he had become the Minister of Magic in a daze, he was shocked and wanted to resign immediately…
However, he was stopped by Kingsley.
“You have done a lot of wrong things. What you have to do now is not to escape, but to correct your mistakes.”
Kingsley’s persuasion stopped Thicknesse.
It also made him aware of his responsibilities.
So from that night, the Ministry of Magic issued a ministerial order: release all Muggle-born wizards imprisoned in Azkaban Prison, and destroy all recently registered wizard information.
And this order was spread throughout England through the Daily Prophet early the next morning.
…
“Yunkai, this morning’s news… was it you?”
At night, in a small tent in the mountains of Scotland.
Harry’s expression looked much better than last time. It was obvious that he had figured something out in the past three days.
Of course, the more important thing is the news in the Daily Prophet this morning.
“It was Professor Snape. He notified Kingsley and lifted the Imperius Curse from Thicknesse.” Lu Yunkai shook his head, “I didn’t help much.”
Lu Yunkai also looked good.
After three days of rest and recuperation, his body has basically returned to normal.
Although strenuous exercise is still a bit difficult, just walking on my own is basically fine.
“Snape? Is he really… on the side of the Order of the Phoenix?” Harry was stunned when he heard this.
“Dumbledore has always trusted him.” Lu Yunkai blocked Harry’s question with an answer.
Harry was silent.
“What I’m worried about is, isn’t the current Law Enforcement Department controlled by a Death Eater? Even if there is an order to release Muggle-born wizards, will he implement it honestly?” Hermione said with some worry at the side : “Bellatrix is still here, and Malfoy is here… there are many of them alive!”
Of course, her expression still looked bright.
The end of the persecution of Muggle-born wizards was absolutely the best news for her.
“I have already dealt with that person.” Lu Yunkai shook his head, “No need to worry about this.”
“Deal with it? How to deal with it…did you kill Yaxley?” Harry was stunned.
“Someone has to do the dirty work. You don’t have to do it.” Lu Yun smiled, “It has nothing to do with you, I’ll just take care of it.”
“…” Harry opened his mouth and was speechless.
“Murderer!!” Ron snorted from the side.
Lu Yun smiled and ignored Ron.
While taking out a wand and a bottle of potion from his pocket.
“Polyjuice potion and wand.” Lu Yunkai placed them in front of Hermione, “You can handle the Horcrux matter.”
“Leave it to us.” Hermione nodded and took the things, “Do you want to come with us?”
“Forget it, my going will affect unity.” Lu Yunkai glanced at Ron and shook his head with a smile, “I wish you all the best… By the way, Bellatrix never knows when she will think of checking the treasury, so …You better hurry up.”
“We will make arrangements as soon as possible.” Hermione nodded.
“I suggest you don’t be too nervous. The new order issued by Thicknesse has made the Ministry of Magic panic. No one has time to care about the few wizard apprentices who appear in Diagon Alley.”
“…Okay.” Hermione glanced at Harry, the two looked at each other and nodded together.
…
The next morning, at the Leaky Cauldron.
Normally, the Leaky Cauldron Bar would usually be empty on weekday mornings, but today at the Leaky Cauldron Bar, Tom was so busy that he didn’t even have time to chat with Lu Yunkai.
Too many people.
But Lu Yun didn’t come to the Leaky Cauldron Bar to chat with Tom.
Someone asked him to meet here.
So just ordering a glass of butter beer, Lu Yunkai came to the corner and sat down.
Not long after, a woman dressed in pink came.
Dolores Umbridge.
This woman didn’t know where she got Lu Yun’s communication mirror number, contacted him, and asked him to come to the Leaky Cauldron to talk alone.
Lu Yunkai originally didn’t want to come to see this woman who upset him, but…
no way.
“You came quite early.” Umbridge sat opposite Lu Yunkai.
She had a bad expression, and she didn’t know whether it was because she hated the strong smell of tobacco and alcohol wafting in the Leaky Cauldron, or because she had been in a bad mood recently.
“What do you want to say to me?” Lu Yunkai was very impatient with Umbridge, “If you have anything to say, just say it.”
“In the past few days, Thicknesse has begun to clear out the previous Muggle-born registration matters. I think that after those Muggle-born wizards are released, the vacant rooms in Azkaban will be filled by those of us who previously registered them. The people are here to fill it up.” Seeing that Lu Yunkai had lost her patience, Umbridge smiled and said that there was no reason why she was looking for Lu Yunkai today.
“Even if everyone else is fine, you, the person in charge of registration, probably won’t be able to escape.” Lu Yunkai nodded.
“So, I came to you for help.” Umbridge spread her hands, “Whether it’s Dumbledore’s side, or the mysterious man’s side, you can give me an introduction. I want to make an introduction to Xin. Let’s talk to Kenis alone.”
“Let’s talk? Can we solve it by just talking?” Lu Yun said happily.
In the past year, although Lu Yunkai and the Muggle-born wizards at Hogwarts did not seem to have suffered much, and at most they were hiding in the Room of Requirement and could not go out, but outside Hogwarts, the situation of Muggle-born wizards was, It’s more than just terrible.
It was simply miserable.
Countless Muggle-born wizards were under forced custody and required to report to designated locations every day. Later, they were even captured and taken to Azkaban, where a prison was built for them to live in.
God knows how many of them went out in the morning, never came home, and will never go back.
And the initiator of all this is undoubtedly the person in charge, Umbridge.
It is true that she did not personally kill or even torture a Muggle-born wizard (these were done by Ackles and his men in the Execution Department), but every Muggle-born wizard was escorted to Azkaban. Previously, for the sake of “procedural justice” of the Ministry of Magic, one had to go through a “guilty verdict”, and the person responsible for this was the pink toad in front of him.
Now that Ackles has disappeared, the Ministry of Magic can no longer find anyone who can top the cylinder except her.
She actually expected to escape trial by talking to the minister? Are there any heavenly principles and laws left?
“Although the minister came from the Law Enforcement Department, he is not the kind of person who got to this position by fighting with others. He should be able to understand that pushing me to take the blame will not improve his situation. It will not help, or even make his situation worse.” Umbridge said confidently: “As long as you give me a chance to talk to him, I will definitely be able to convince him and me. A decent exit.”
“I thought that when you decided to take up the task of registering Muggle-born wizards, you were already prepared to go to Azkaban with Voldemort after he fell!” Lu Yunkai sighed.
He has a deep understanding of Umbridge’s eloquence. If he didn’t know about Thicknesse’s situation, Lu Yunkai would really believe that she might be able to convince him.
But…Thickness is now bent on atonement, and he won’t consider his own situation at all.
“Of course I’m mentally prepared, but if you can spend your old age at home, who would be willing to live in Azkaban!” Umbridge smiled, “Especially now, Dumbledore is not It really has an overwhelming advantage, and I don’t know why Thicknesse suddenly went crazy on his own.”
“Well, as far as I know, Thicknesse was previously cast under the Imperius Curse by a mysterious man. The spell was lifted on him two days ago, and he is now working hard to make up for his mistakes. Do you think… we still need to talk?” Lu Yunkai smiled. rhetorical question.
Quiet.
“The Imperius Curse? What an excuse.” Umbridge sighed softly, “Why didn’t I think of it?”
“I don’t think it’s an excuse.” Lu Yunkai said with a smile.
This despicable person, look how despicable everyone is…
Can’t communicate, forget it.
“It seems that I will have to go to Azkaban to spend the rest of my life, or…” Umbridge sighed and looked at Lu Yunkai, “It’s okay to leave England and live somewhere where no one knows me. good.”
“Want to escape? You must do it as soon as possible.”
“Hmm.” Umbridge looked at Lu Yunkai.
“…What are you doing?” Lu Yun felt happy.
“Escape is very expensive. And living in a new place is also very expensive… You are very rich, right?”
“Does it have anything to do with you whether I have money or not?”
“I have helped you several times, whether it was at Hogwarts or with Eileen Hill.” Umbridge looked at Lu Yunkai and said, “It’s a bit inappropriate for you to talk like this. Is it appropriate?”
Lu Yunkai breathed steadily.
Although these words were a naked attempt to repay a favor, Lu Yunkai really couldn’t refute it.
After all, regarding Eileen, he really owed this favor.
In addition, when he was at Hogwarts, Umbridge also gave him face when it came to Trelawney. Lu Yunkai really couldn’t do such a thing as turning his back and denying it.
Besides, it’s just money!
As long as she doesn’t open her mouth, this is simply the easiest way to return a favor.
So how much money does she want?
