Chapter 2354 The Eve of Darkness

For Ellie, life at Hogwarts is very peaceful and stable. Facts have proved that as long as you don't pay attention to what Harry Potter is doing, it is just an ordinary campus life.

It wasn't until one morning that Ellie got the "Daily Prophet" and saw that Fudge admitted that Voldemort had returned, and she didn't know that things should continue according to the plot... Well, that's enough.

In fact, when she saw Harry's lifeless face, Ellie knew that Sirius was still dead as in the plot.

But she didn't go to comfort Harry, just let Snape do this kind of thing, she also has very important things.

For example, meeting with the Prime Minister.

"It's a mess now, Jones."

It was already late at night when Ellie saw the Prime Minister, and he was pacing back and forth angrily, looking restless, while slapping the newspaper in his hand vigorously.

"That Fudge came just now, and he told me that it was all caused by the battle between wizards, the broken bridge, the hurricane, the vicious murder, it was all done by wizards, but now people are putting the blame on me Come on! Did you see what the Times said?! They actually said that the government didn't invest enough in bridge construction, that's why the bridge collapsed! And some people said that the vicious murders happened because the police were not strong enough! This is absolutely How unreasonable! How unreasonable!"

"So I told you, sir, that we need a more effective way to control the wizarding world."

Mr Jones, standing next to Ellie, coughed, while the Prime Minister frowned, then nodded.

"It seems that this is the only way... Miss... are you sure she..."

"Of course, sir, this is our trump card."

Jones nodded to Ellie, who then stepped forward and bowed quietly to the prime minister.

"That's not funny at all, Jones."

The Prime Minister looked at Jones grimly.

"You're not going to tell me you're going to let a little girl handle this."

"She's no ordinary child, Prime Minister . . . if you talk to her, it will be clear."

So next, the Prime Minister spent an hour talking with this girl named Ellie. It was a much more comfortable and joyful conversation for the Prime Minister than with the man who called himself Fudge. In front of the man who claimed to be the Minister of Magic, the Prime Minister always felt like a child who didn't understand anything, which made him very uncomfortable.

But in front of Ellie, the Prime Minister seemed very relaxed. Although he felt uncomfortable talking with children at first, he was quickly attracted by Ellie's conversation. Unlike Fudge, Ellie gave the Prime Minister a detailed and clear introduction to the current situation in the magical world, and at the same time explained certain terms to him, as well as the developing situation and situation.

After listening to Ellie's story and the "Daily Prophet" and records she took out, the Prime Minister finally made a decision.

"Then I leave it to you, Jones."

"Yes, Prime Minister."

In Ellie's view, this decision is tantamount to the last nail in the coffin of the wizarding world.

Fudge never understood that the Prime Minister was also responsible. He didn't know that you can't simply solve the problem of wizards' fighting spreading to Muggles. In fact, she already thought that the prime minister would definitely support her proposal. The reason is simple. As the Prime Minister said before, in order to cover up the traces of wizards, Fudge and other people from the Ministry of Magic processed those battle scenes to make them look like natural disasters or ordinary disasters.

But this has had a rather detrimental effect on the Prime Minister himself. The opposition will seize on these policies that lash out at him and try to reduce his approval rating. Can Fudge solve these problems?

Of course he couldn't solve it. In fact, Fudge is like other wizards, they don't care about Muggle issues at all, it seems that in their view, the wizarding world and the world of Muggles are completely different worlds. But alas, this is not the case. Everything they do has an echo in the real world, like right now.

You see, wizards create problems, don't solve them, and have to blame people who have nothing to do with them-the Prime Minister hates these goddamn bastards, and it's obvious that they caused trouble to destroy the bridge. Answering questions about bridge interfaces and cutting corners in parliamentary inquiry...  

The prime minister now wants to kill these wizards too.

But now, the other party provided him with an excellent opportunity to intervene.

I heard from the little girl in front of me that the wizarding world is facing an unprecedented threat—the Prime Minister has also heard from the Minister of Magic, and more importantly, the other party’s goal is not just wizards, their ultimate goal is to rule This country rules over all mortals. To put it simply, this is actually a large-scale terrorist attack in the magic world, so as long as it is treated as such, then the prime minister can immediately return to his field of expertise.

After all, he might not understand how these wizards turned a mug into a hamster, but political matters were the same no matter what class they were in.

The large-scale mobilization of the Muggle world will not attract the attention of the wizards, they don't even know what those Muggles are doing, of course, Ellie doesn't expect them to understand the meaning of the garrison deployment. The Ministry of Defense, under the signal of the Prime Minister, has begun to assemble under the guise of "military counter-terrorism drama", waiting for the time to come --- it will not be too long.

Ellie is well aware of this.

This year's Hogwarts feels more deserted than in previous years. This is not because of the decrease in the number of students, but more because of the resurrection of Voldemort and the reappearance of the Death Eaters. People are panicked, and so are the students in the school. By the way, since Voldemort's resurrection became a fact, Fudge also stepped down, and Umbridge disappeared without a trace on the same day. So the Protection of Fantastic Beasts class lost its teacher again...

Now some students have started to hear that the curse was transferred from the Defense Against the Dark Arts class to the Protection of Fantastic Beasts class, because Ellie was too powerful, the curse couldn't work on her, so she chose another class... Well, of course this is just rumor.

The atmosphere in the school is getting more and more tense, but nothing has changed for Ellie, she just lurks silently and waits.

Until this day, Dumbledore left Hogwarts with Harry Potter.

Ellie knew what they were going to do, they wanted to destroy the Horcruxes, and they found a Horcrux location. But tonight, Malfoy will fix the Vanishing Cabinet, and let a bunch of Death Eaters infiltrate the school, and they'll kill Dumbledore.

Like now.

She watched the Death Eaters surround Dumbledore on the tower, grinning like stupid wild dogs. But that didn't change anything, and they waved their wands, signaling Malfoy to do it. According to the next encounter in the original book, then Snape appeared and killed Dumbledore.

In theory it should be like this.

But now Dumbledore is no longer a threat.

Thinking of this, Ellie narrowed her eyes, leaned close to the sniper scope, and pulled the trigger.

"boom!!!"

One of the wand-wielding women's heads exploded, and her headless corpse wobbled comically before falling headlong to the ground.

That was Bellatrix Black, the murderer who killed Sirius in the original books, and now she is dead.

Then Ellie pulled the bolt again, aimed at another target, and pulled the trigger again.

"boom!!"

With the sound of gunshots, blood burst out of the chest of a big blond man. He raised his wand in horror, trying to do something, but he couldn't do anything... Soon, his head was like a balloon The same exploded, scattered and shattered.

The remaining Death Eaters looked flustered and terrified. Ellie saw them waving their wands in the air, as if they wanted to find something, but unfortunately they couldn't find anything. In other places, if these Death Eaters are attacked, they can use Apparition to escape, but unfortunately they have come to Hogwarts, where Apparation is strictly prohibited. So these idiots don't drop anything except running around the tower trying to figure out who killed them.

From the looks of them, they might have thought that someone was hiding in the tower, and then used some spell to blow their heads off.

It's a pity that wizards don't seem to have learned how to deal with large-caliber sniper rifles.

So when another of them didn't choose to hide, but poked his head out to look outside, trying to find the target, Ellie pulled the trigger again.

"boom!!"

A third Death Eater fell, as the others finally seemed to come to their senses, they called for broomsticks and hurried out of the tower on them. But that didn't stop Ellie from attacking, and she took aim again, smashing another Death Eater on a broomstick to pieces.

The remaining two seemed to have escaped from Hogwarts' barrier. They Apparated instantly, and then disappeared from Ellie's vision.

Until this time, Ellie put down the large-caliber sniper rifle in her hand, then sat on the broom, and leisurely came to the top of the tower.

There, Dumbledore was sitting slumped on the ground, watching Ellie's appearance, he showed a helpless wry smile.

"I really didn't expect you to help, Miss Ellie."

"I thought about it, anyway, you only have one year to live."

Ellie looked at Dumbledore.

"If you die without letting you see what the wizarding world will become, I'm afraid I won't be reconciled."

"Really? Actually, I don't really want to see that scene."

Dumbledore closed his eyes tiredly.

"Sorry, I think I'm going to take a break first."

"I think so..."

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

However, before Ellie finished speaking, suddenly, there was a thunderous sound outside, Ellie and Dumbledore turned their heads to look, and saw that over Hogwarts School, thick dark clouds began to twist and condense, It turned into an ugly mark in an instant.

"Dark Mark, it seems Voldemort is more eager than expected."

Ellie blinked, and quickly understood what was going on. In the original book, Voldemort did not attack Hogwarts until after Dumbledore's death. But the situation is different now, his subordinates failed to kill Dumbledore, and Voldemort must have heard from his subordinates that Dumbledore is currently extremely weak, so he planned to take the opportunity to attack Hogwarts and directly advance the decisive battle .

After all, Voldemort didn't know that Dumbledore only had one year to live. In Voldemort's view, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

But that's okay, Ellie doesn't want to waste time either.

Perhaps Voldemort was so daring because he had successfully mastered a Horcrux, or maybe he thought he could make a comeback again?

Anyway...the other party has made a decision.

Thinking of this, Ellie narrowed her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

Then he will have to pay the price for this decision.
