Hogwarts Slytherin

Chapter 23 Death Eaters reveal their fangs

September [-]st, Hogwarts Express, second year carriage.

"Seven Muggles were kidnapped by a group of wizards wearing black cloaks."

"Kus Wiggleswader has mysteriously disappeared. He is a member of the Muggle Liaison Office of the Ministry of Magic."

"Squib Kerry was confirmed to have been killed, and the Death Eaters claimed responsibility. Prior to this, Kerry was involved in a tax evasion scandal."

The magical world cannot exist completely independent of the Muggle world. For example, the Malfoy family, which is now recognized as the richest, has made a lot of money from its transactions with the Muggle world, but this does not prevent them from following Voldemort. Behind them chanted "Kill all the mudbloods."

Some squibs are also engaged in trade between the wizarding world and the Muggle world. Strictly speaking, they do not violate the International Statute of Secrecy, but their rights and interests are not fully protected in the wizarding world.

This was the case for the murdered squib. He had status on both sides, and his own family in the magic world was also a slightly famous mixed-race family, so he took advantage of both sides.

Before he was killed, he was being ostracized by pure-blood families, who believed that he had violated their interests, and pressured the Ministry of Magic to report him for tax evasion. The Ministry of Magic did not find conclusive evidence until after his death.

"Is war in the wizarding world inevitable? The wizarding world has once again been slowly divided after Grindelwald's time due to controversial views on Muggles."

The headline on the Daily Prophet looked shocking. In the middle of the newspaper page was the silhouette of a dark wizard leaving, with a ruin behind him. Above the ruin was a huge skull with a snake coming out of its mouth.

Several other people in the box obviously saw it, but their reactions were a bit intriguing.

Lily looked a little angry and uneasy: "Are these the dark wizards in the magical world? Why doesn't the government catch them?"

"They couldn't defeat that adult, so they were all hiding and waiting for Dumbledore to take action." Kano's expression was a bit disdainful.

From time to time, people passed by the corridor outside the box, and the train made a "clang" sound while running on the track. This was a shabby green leather car. Reggie took back his thoughts.

"Okay, Lily, this is not something we should worry about. At least Hogwarts should be safe for now." Reggie put away the newspapers on the table, and just as the train salesman passed by, he spread the snacks all over the small table. table.

Snape didn't seem to want to end the topic: "Squibs are not worthy of being compared with wizards."

"Oh, Sev, how could you say that?" Lily looked at Snape in disbelief, then turned to look at Reggie.

"What about you? Do you think so too?" Those green eyes stared straight at him, not hiding the emotions at all.

He looked at Lily in front of him. It had only been a year since she was even more beautiful.

Reggie has long been a part of the magical world, just like these people in front of him. To him, they are no longer cold words or silhouettes on the screen.

He simply answered the question: "I think wizards should unite."

The weather outside the window is gloomy and stormy.

When the prefects came to remind them to change into school robes, Reggie finally took out the wizard robe that he had carefully crafted during the holidays.

"This is for you."

He was never stingy with his friends. Even if they were not friends, you would always do something good for others when they were with you.It has nothing to do with material or not. Sometimes some small means can better stabilize the relationship between people.

What's more, this is not something too expensive for Reggie, but the three young wizards had different views after he introduced the function of the wizard's robe.

"Rigi, thank you, but I can't, it's too expensive." Lily, who had been a little depressed all the way because of Snape's words, covered her mouth in surprise.

He specially added a magic pattern on the chest of the wizard robe he gave to Lily. It took some effort to make the pattern of the magic pattern in the shape of a lily, which was similar to Dumbledore's starry sky wizard robe. There are also stars twinkling on this lily.

"We are friends, right? At worst, you can knit me a scarf next Christmas. You know, I've been missing a scarf."

Snape held the wizard's robe tightly, not knowing what to say. He had already regarded Reggie as his friend in his heart. Looking at the second-hand robe on his body, his eyes darkened.

"Oh, thank you." Lily hugged Reggie in emotion.

Reggie was a little overwhelmed by the sudden warmth and softness in his arms. He might have hugged her too tightly, but Reggie felt Lily's fullness in front of her, giving him a numb feeling like an electric shock.A few naughty hairs swept across Reggie's cheeks, the girl's slender swan neck, and the vague scent of lily on her body, made him suddenly feel dry and distracted.

Fortunately, Lily might have sensed something was wrong. She quickly let go of Reggie and returned to her seat with a flushed face.

Glancing over, I happened to meet Kano's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling at all.

Ruiji calmed down, deliberately ignored the weird atmosphere, and told them about his plan to establish a club this semester.

Sure enough, Kano's attention was diverted and he asked in surprise: "Are you already an intermediate magician?"

Reggie nodded, there was nothing to hide.

"Then what kind of society are you planning to establish?"

"Magic research mainly improves and revives some ancient magic, and also involves some alchemy knowledge." Reggie said.

"Sounds good, count me in."

Reggie looked at Snape, who had been silent, and said, "Severus, what do you think?"

"I may not have time, but Professor Slughorn has offered me a part-time job this semester." Snape pursed his lips, but still declined his invitation.

Reggie nodded and said no more.

The train arrived at its destination when it was dark. Fortunately, only the first years needed to take a boat from the Black Lake to Hogwarts. This year, they could take a self-driving carriage into the school.

Reggie finally saw the Thestral - a creature that represents death and ominousness. Only those who have seen death can see it. He subconsciously touched his wand, and its core was taken from the Thestral's tail feathers.

The senior class of Slytherin College has been controlled by the pure-blood forces represented by Lucius, and some neutral families dare not offend them.

So he planned to start building his own force and set his sights on this year's freshmen.

During the sorting ceremony, several people caught Reggie's attention. Sirius's younger brother, Regulus Black, also became a new student at Hogwarts this year. The Sorting Hat was placed on his head for 10 minutes before shouting Out: "Slytherin."

Reggie breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Narcissa on the other side of the long table.

There are also two other Slytherin freshmen, Barty Crouch and Rabastan Lestrange.

After the sorting, the students were eager to enjoy the meal. However, Dumbledore stood up and did not announce the meal as in previous years, but instead dropped a bombshell.
