Harry Potter: The Party of the Orient at Hogwarts

In the end, they decided to go back to London. After all, Dumbledore is really unreliable. How long has passed, and he hasn't come yet.

But what Jiang Li didn't expect was that more than 60 years ago, there was the Hogwarts Express, and this iron train didn't seem to have changed at all.

Because it was still a holiday, there were basically no people on the train, and they found an empty box easily.

"It's really nostalgic. I took this train to Hogwarts with my brother at the time. I didn't expect to be on this train again after so long." Newt looked into the carriage. The display showed a nostalgic expression.

"Theseus Scamander?" Jiang Li tentatively said a name.

"Have you heard of him?" Newt propped his chin and looked at Jiang Li who was sitting across from him.

Jiang Li shook his head: "No, when I was in the trial hall of the Magic Congress, I heard them discussing your brother's name while watching you."

What Jiang Li said was not entirely correct, not only in the Magic Congress, but also in Eleanor's book introducing Newt and their History of Magic textbook. Theseus Scamander was actually mentioned. A great Auror, a true war hero.

"I heard them say that he is a great war hero." Jiang Li was very interested in the title of Theseus, because the book didn't mention much about how he got this title, more The story is that he assisted his younger brother Newt Scamander and the great white wizard Albus Dumbledore to defeat Grindelwald, crush Grindelwald's conspiracy, and organize the elimination of Grindelwald's Remnants.

"That's not such a good memory." Newt took a sip of the Muggle drink that Jiang Li bought just before getting into the car, "It tastes good, Muggles can always make weird things, including that war , they called it World War One."

Jiang Li knew that war, including the Second World War, was also a painful memory for her country.

"Although the Ministry of Magic clearly ordered that wizards were prohibited from participating in this war, Theseus still hid his identity as a wizard and went to the battlefield, defending our country with those Muggles." When Newt talked about his brother, his tone was Unconsciously a little proud.

"Muggle weapons are very powerful. Theseus didn't use magic at all in that battle. He was seriously injured, but with his injuries he destroyed an enemy base." Newt continued to tell her.

Newt looked out the window of the train: "That time, Theseus was so badly injured that he almost died, and it took him half a year to recover, so in fact, no matter which country's Ministry of Magic is very afraid of Muggles us."

"He's so brave, he must be a Gryffindor." Jiang Li recalled that the sorting school was learned by Cedric and her, and the core spirit of Gryffindor is bravery.

Newt looked back at her, then smiled and shook his head: "No, he is a Hufflepuff like me, bravery is not exclusive to Gryffindor, what is engraved in Hufflepuff blood is loyalty and Kindness, because of his loyalty to the country and kindness to innocent people, Theseus went to the battlefield resolutely."

"So, I hate war very much. Too many people were displaced because of this. Theseus exchanged all his injuries for the glory of a war hero. He had too many friends and colleagues who could not return there, and even None of the bones were able to return to their hometown, leaving only a glorious title." Newt seemed to be remembering that cruel war, he propped his chin with his hands, and looked into the distance through the glass window.

"Under the glory, all sacrifices."

Jiang Li thought of what was recorded in the history books, that this war was a great shame to his country, the incompetent leaders were obsequious to the outside world, as the victorious country even received worse treatment than the defeated ones, they fought hard at home, endless exploitation The common people even tried their best to prevent domestic magicians from participating in this war, and even provoked conflicts between ordinary people and magicians.

It was not until the appearance of that great man that the history of humiliation ended. He turned the tide and reversed the situation. He even led the magician to shake hands with ordinary people. They can work together, study together, and even marry.

"I don't like war either, but Newt, I want to ask you, if there was a murderer who started a war in your time, and you got a chance one day, go back to when this monster was three years old, you could Kill him easily, would you do that?" Speaking of war and death, Jiang Li easily remembered about Voldemort.

"Huh?" Newt looked at her incredulously.

Jiang Li looked at his puzzled expression, thought for a while, and changed the way of saying: "Let me tell you in other words, if you could go back to when Grindelwald was three years old, would you kill him? "

Newt watched the rapidly receding scenery outside the window, was silent for a long time, and said softly, "No."

"why?"

"A three-year-old child can't kill people or start a war, so at that moment, he is innocent and innocent. If I kill him, an innocent child, then I and him What's the difference?" Newt's voice was very soft, but he said every word seriously.

"However, you already know that he will kill many, many people in the future, even people related to you." Jiang Li was a little anxious. Knowing what happened to Harry after losing his parents, she couldn't understand the relationship between Albus and him. Newt's idea.

"What? Grindelwald killed a lot of people?" Newt frowned and asked back, because he has been traveling all over the world for magical animals, and he didn't have a lot of impressions of Grindelwald. He always thought that Grindelwald was just a shit Stick, even if he just used Credence, it wasn't him who wanted to kill Credence.

"Ah, I'm just making an analogy." Jiang Li was a little dazed when he asked him this, but she remembered another thing. She did see in the book that Gellert killed a man related to Newt. people.

In a short sentence, the book records that the fiancée of Auror Theseus Scamander, chief of the Ministry of Magic, died at the hands of the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1929.

The name was too long, so she couldn't remember the fiancée's name at all.

1929?Isn't it the year they are in now?In other words, this woman whom she has not masked will die soon.

Jiang Li broke away from the memory and continued the question just now: "Kill the three-year-old him, and you can save many, many innocent people, even your close relatives among them."

"No, I will try to change that child instead of killing him in a state of complete innocence. The value of life is immeasurable, let alone at that moment, he is just an innocent child." Newt sipped He pursed his lips, smiled at her, and touched her head, "Don't think too much, there is still a distance from Hogwarts, close your eyes and rest for a while."

The sun shining into the carriage warmly shone on Jiang Li's body. She lay on the table and looked at the profile of Newt who was looking at the scenery outside the window, feeling at ease.

Gradually, Newt's profile began to blur, and she fell into a drowsy sleep.
