[HP] Amy Lee sleepwalks through Hogwarts

Chapter 256 Death Eaters Escape

A few mornings later, an owl flew into the auditorium and dropped copies of the Daily Prophet. Less than a minute later, exclamations filled the auditorium one after another, frightening Amy who was just about to become confused.

"What's wrong?" Amy yawned and asked the stunned Joey.

Joey was holding a copy of the Daily Prophet, his face turned pale with fright, and he couldn't say a word.

Amy stretched her neck and glanced at the front page, and immediately saw a large number of half-length photos, with the people inside showing contemptuous and creepy smiles. One of them Amy could recognize at a glance, it was the woman in the picture frame whom Kreacher cherished - Bellatrix.

She is no longer as energetic as she appears in the photo frame, but looks like a madman. The people standing next to her also looked like madmen... no, or rather, like Sirius when he had just escaped from Azkaban.

Underneath these ten photos were written the crimes they had committed. The big letters further down read "The Ministry of Magic announced last night that a large-scale prison break occurred in Azkaban".

Looking at the following interview with current Minister Fudge, he said that this large-scale prison break had nothing to do with the mysterious man or the Death Eaters. All of this, the Ministry of Magic is suspicious of, is the work of another man who once escaped from Azkaban - Sirius Black. The Ministry of Magic will revoke his bail pending trial, reinstate all charges against him, and will capture him back to Azkaban as soon as possible...

"The blame was thrown so hard this time?" Amy pretended to sigh, turning to look at Umbridge at the staff table.

Amy was sure that the old woman must have learned about this matter, but she still pretended that nothing happened, holding her orchid fingers and drinking coffee gracefully.

Joey seemed to feel very cold and shivered slightly: "Ai... Amy, we... are really in danger..."

It wasn't that they didn't believe it at all before, but now that they actually saw the Death Eaters escaping from Azkaban, more and more people were feeling panic in their hearts.

Joey even asked: "Amy, is it too late for me to join you? I...I have to protect my family!"

"Don't worry yet!" Amy's eyes were still looking at Umbridge, still wondering why she wasn't panicking at all?

No matter how much he believed in the Ministry of Magic, no matter how much he believed in Fudge, he shouldn't have remained so calm after hearing that ten Death Eaters had escaped.

Or, she was protected by the ancient magic of Hogwarts. Or...she is from the Death Eaters side!

But currently, Amy does not have any evidence to prove this to everyone, so she feels that she cannot express these speculations now.

Professor McGonagall also held a copy of the "Daily Prophet" in her hand. After reading the front page, she asked worriedly: "Albus, do you think this incident will have any impact on Hogwarts?"

"Ahem~" Umbridge unceremoniously took over the question that was supposed to be answered by Dumbledore, holding her throat and said softly: "These are impossible things! Azkaban has so many photographers." How could the ghost guard allow so many people to escape? I think someone must have made a mistake and made this up from fantasy!"

Professor McGonagall resisted the urge to throw the goblet at her all over her and said, "But Minister Fudge has already admitted..."

"There must be other reasons for this!" Umbridge still insisted: "There will be no prison break! No Death Eaters escaped! Hogwarts is safe! The entire wizarding world is safe! As professors, we What we need to do is to teach these students to behave themselves, without caring about what is happening outside!"

The other professors looked at each other with particularly speechless expressions.

"There is definitely something wrong with this old woman!" Amy said to herself.

Hermione came over with the newspaper, shook the front page, and asked in a low voice: "Amy, can you see anything?"

Ron was already shocked: "Merlin's beard, you actually asked Amy for advice?"

This is because Hermione, a top student, has never gotten along with Amy since she entered school, because her brains always don't go in the same direction when considering problems.

Hermione said as expected this time: "Because Amy sees things from a different angle than me every time! I want to know if Amy sees anything more than me this time."

This time, even Joey and Angela were shocked, and they both thought in their hearts, Hermione, the top student, actually agreed with Amy's thinking?

Amy was too lazy to say more, so she asked first: "What did you see?"

Hermione lowered her voice: "You-Know-Who needs manpower! So he is gathering the Death Eaters who used to follow him! But the most loyal Death Eaters were imprisoned in Azkaban, so You-Know-Who managed to save them Come out and expand your camp."

Amy nodded, and then said: "The pink toad above also said that Azkaban is guarded by dementors and will not let anyone escape...Sirius was an accident! But now It’s impossible for all the ten people who just escaped to be Animagus. Therefore, they must have escaped in human form!”

Having said this, she calmly picked up the water glass and took a sip of water. She was going to speak more carefully and possibly have more words, so she needed to pause and rest.

Hermione was anxious: "What then?"

Joey was also anxious: "Speak quickly!"

Amy put down the water glass, nodded, and continued: "They don't have magic wands. It's impossible to defeat the dementors without wands! If they could, why did they wait until now to escape? Therefore, the people outside the cell must be rescued. Kill them!"

Hermione and Joey looked at each other and thought to themselves, isn't this nonsense?

Amy continued without waiting for them to ask questions: "There are so many dementors in Azkaban. If we want to deal with them, more than ten wizards will be needed to rob the prison! Such a large battle is impossible. Not to be discovered by the Ministry of Magic! And they will definitely not wait for them to kidnap people before notifying the Ministry of Magic! Dealing with dementors is not an easy task, and it will not be so fast. If the prison-breaking Death Eaters just show up In Azkaban, if someone notified the Ministry of Magic, the Aurors would arrive before they drove away the dementors and confront those Death Eaters who were robbing the prison! It can be seen from this that those who were robbing the prison His actions were very fast, or he was very powerful. Before anyone notified the Ministry of Magic, he found and rescued all ten people inside!"

Hermione seemed a little impatient: "Say something useful!"

Amy was not angry and just continued: "So there are only two possibilities for the entire prison robbery last night! One, the person who went there was too powerful and killed all the dementors at once, leaving no one alive. Time to notify the Ministry of Magic! However, if all the Dementors die, not only the ten Death Eaters will escape from Azkaban, but everyone trapped in it will escape! So I think the second There is a greater possibility! That is...the dementors have rebelled! They let go of the Death Eaters and continue to guard the remaining people!"

As soon as these words came out, Hermione was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.

"You said...the dementors rebelled?" Hermione still couldn't believe it because it was too terrifying.

It's just that Amy has laid the groundwork for her with so much nonsense, and she has already found a reason to believe it.
