Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 524 Hogwarts Equality Thought
"Students, I wish you a happy weekend, get out of class is over now!"

With the sound of Professor Slughorn announcing the end of get out of class, the students in the Potions classroom cheered and rushed out of the classroom. The next two days will be their rare holidays.

But when everyone was walking towards the auditorium, lounge and other places, Harry saw Hermione running towards Hufflepuff College alone with a stack of books in her arms.

"Hermione, what are you doing there?"

Harry chased after him and asked, but Hermione raised a book that she held alone in her hand and said:

"I'm going to promote this book to the house-elves in the kitchen, so maybe those dead-headed house-elves will be more concerned about their rights."

Harry took a closer look, only to realize that it was a copy of The Quibbler.

This magazine was just a niche magazine before. Except for a very small number of core fans, everyone else basically regarded it as a pastime when they were bored. After all, there are too many records about various unknown creatures. It's so weird that no one really takes it seriously.

But not long ago that all changed.

"The Quibbler" uncharacteristically began to report first-hand news about the equality of Muggle wizards in the outside world, which greatly increased the interest of young wizards who were imprisoned in Hogwarts and could not understand the outside world.

Afterwards, a statement that Mike published on it resonated with most of the Hogwarts students, making it one of the magazines that Hogwarts students must read every day, and almost everyone has a copy.

Even Harry himself felt that Mike's statement was right. There are indeed many injustices in the current wizarding world that need to be corrected.

But I heard that this matter caused a lot of trouble outside, and many people made their own statements about it, which made the kind-hearted Harry feel a little unbearable and puzzled.

He has become a little confused, is it worth it?
If possible, Harry really wanted to ask Mike face to face, and believed that the other party would be able to give him a satisfactory answer.

It's a pity that Mike is no longer in Hogwarts. He disappeared inexplicably one night, and no one knew where he went.

A student is missing.

This should be a very serious matter, but it is strange that neither Mike's friends nor the professors pay attention to this matter.

And maybe because he was too engrossed in his thoughts, he couldn't help but say the last half of the sentence.

"Of course it's worth it!" shrieked Hermione, before turning to the Quibbler and reading, "Poverty degrades men, hunger degrades women, darkness debilitates children, and all we have to do is change that." Everything! Look! How well he speaks! It is a great cause! I would even give my all for it!"

"But... that sentence seems to be said by Hugo..."

"Do you think I don't know?" Hermione retorted, blushing. "Or do you think I'm an idiot?"

"No, of course I'm not..."

"Then shut up!"

"Okay... okay."

Harry closed his mouth in frustration, and silently followed Hermione towards the Hogwarts kitchen.

During this period of time, he has always felt that something is wrong with Hermione. Not only did he not invite them to play every day, but he even relaxed a lot in terms of study.

That's why Harry had to follow Hermione today, he really wanted to find out what was going on.

In fact, there are many people who are in a similar state to Hermione, just like the students Harry and Hermione saw along the way, almost all of them have a copy of "The Quibbler" in their hands, and they all have a copy of "The Quibbler". He looked in a hurry.

But the strange thing is, no matter how busy they are, as long as they meet a student holding "The Quibbler" like them, they will go up and say hello enthusiastically, but when they meet a guy with empty hands like Harry, they will look coldly and say hello. right.

The most exaggerated one is Filch. Now this Hogwarts janitor and cleaner has been completely conquered. Like those students, he keeps reading "The Quibbler" every day, and he doesn't even eat. willing to let go.

Such a state is undoubtedly not conducive to work, and it is true. During this period of time, the cleanliness of the corridors of Hogwarts has obviously declined a lot, and the reason for all this is that Filch was too addicted to "The Quibbler". "Thus slack off work.

He no longer went out to patrol at night, no matter how big the disturbances made by those night-swimming students were, he would not care about them, but hid himself in his office that smelled of grilled fish Continue watching "The Quibbler" by the light of the oil lamp.

According to the descriptions of several night tour veterans, they can often even see Filch put "The Quibbler" on Mike's "Squibs Are Humans!"Also has the same powers! "The article was read to Mrs. Norris over and over again.

Now Harry felt a chill down his spine as long as he imagined Filch staying up in the middle of the night staring at a pair of bulb-like eyes, slowly telling Mrs. Norris the details of the article in that cramped and dark cabin!
That's really weird!

But when he told Ron and Hermione about this, he didn't get the reply he wanted, and both Ron and Hermione expressed sympathy for Filch.

In Hermione's words:
"This is the last ray of hope for the poor old Squib!"

Then from the next day, the two of them brought some classmates and started to help Filch clean Hogwarts, which moved Filch to tears.

It was also the first time Harry had seen Filch so wet in his parched eye sockets.

Of course, that's not the point.

The point is that those classmates are willing to help Filch with his work?They still look happy and harmonious?

This is simply a joke of the world!

You know, they usually hate Filch to the core!
All of this caused Harry to have a strong sense of disobedience, and under the pressure of this feeling, he began to instinctively look for similar people who had not been affected.

As a result, he searched and searched, and found that only Slytherin students were left in Hogwarts, which could be regarded as normal.

The rest of the students, and even some professors including Flitwick, had been completely immersed in "The Quibbler", which made Mike feel a little strange.

But Slytherin's normality only lasted for a short time.

After the initial resistance to The Quibbler and Mike, the Slytherins quickly met with misfortune.

First of all, people from the other three colleges began to spontaneously boycott Slytherin students, which made it difficult for them to move forward in Hogwarts.

Harry felt that this was nothing to Slytherin, after all, they always liked to be alone before.

But then Draco jumped out for the first time and publicly expressed his support for Mike's remarks. He admitted that the purebloods of Slytherin did discriminate against Muggle-born students in the past, and said that he would definitely be strict with Mike in the future. Restrain Slytherin students to prevent this behavior.

Unsurprisingly, this faction completely regarded himself as the speaker of Slytherin. Although he gained the favor of many other house members, it also made him the target of public criticism in Slytherin.

Almost all Slytherins regarded Draco as a traitor, and some even publicly declared that Draco, like Ron, was a scum of pure blood!

Harry felt that there must be something wrong with Draco's brain, otherwise he would never have said such insane words. You must know that he is a Slytherin himself, and his future days will be in the event of arousing the anger of the Slytherins. It must be very difficult.

But to Harry's surprise, this time things still didn't develop as he expected.

Facing the upcoming revenge of the Slytherins, Franklin made a decisive move.

In the name of Mike, he led Ravenclaw and the members of the Los Santos Security Company directly through the entire Slytherin, and pushed Draco back to the position of Slytherin's talker, and it was not until this Then everyone finally understood, Draco, this guy has been Mike's man from beginning to end.

Since then, no matter what they think in their hearts, the entire Hogwarts students have at least superficially become supporters of Mike's theory. Even Hagrid, who once had a feud with Mike, has now Became a die-hard fan of Mike, watching the window all day waiting for the owl to send him the new issue of "The Quibbler".

And if there is anyone in Hogwarts who has not been influenced by Mike, apart from Dumbledore and other professors, there are only those hardworking house elves left.

But now Hermione seemed to have noticed this, and began to try to Amway "Quiet" to them.

But to be honest, Harry didn't think Hermione could really convince those house-elves to fight for their rights.

You must know that Hermione had set up a 'vomiting association' as early as a few years ago in an attempt to help the house elves get rid of the current situation of being enslaved.

But the reality is that those house-elves are too stubborn, they are not willing to accept Hermione's ideas, and even swear at them. In the end, only Mike supported Hermione as a friend , paid wages to the house elves in his family.

Just like this, the two normal house-elves in Mike's family are dying, thinking this is an insult to them!

Thinking of this, the expression on Harry's face couldn't help becoming a little weird.

Because if he didn't expect it, they would probably be kicked out by the house elves this time.

But at this moment, Hermione, who was walking in front, stopped suddenly, which made Harry almost bump into her directly.

"We have arrived!"

Hermione spoke with firm eyes, not as if she was talking to Harry, but as if she was cheering herself up.

Then he ignored Harry, and went into the kitchen holding a copy of "The Quibbler".

It was the time when the house elves were busy. The whole kitchen was filled with the smell of oily smoke, and the tableware and various ingredients were flying all over the sky. The house elves were busy flexibly on the kitchen counter.

Looking at such a scene, Harry couldn't help feeling emotional.

I heard that they have to repeat such busy work three times a day, each time lasting at least 2 hours, otherwise the professors and students at Hogwarts will face the risk of starvation.

Not only that, after completing the work in the kitchen, they also need to be responsible for the cleaning work of the Hogwarts castle, and the lawn outside the castle also needs to be trimmed, otherwise Hogwarts will be destroyed by a dumb gun like Filch. It has long been turned into a dump.

It can be said that this is a group of people who have been silently contributing to Hogwarts for thousands of years.

And the reason why they did this was just to repay the help of Ms. Hufflepuff for taking them in and giving them a place to settle down.

"This is a group of great creatures!"

Harry made a judgment, and for a moment, he even felt that he understood why Hermione established the 'Vomit Society', and why Mike had to participate in this massive resistance movement outside.

Such a great creature should not be treated like this all the time!

And at this moment, the house elves in the kitchen also noticed the arrival of Harry and Hermione.

They originally thought that Harry and Hermione were just ordinary students who came to the kitchen to look for food, and they were coming to receive them with a smile on their faces.

But when they saw Hermione, the smiles on their faces disappeared in an instant, replaced by horror!

"The devil is here again!"

The headed house elf screamed and shouted, and then the noisy kitchen fell silent instantly as if someone had pressed the mute button.

All the house-elves stared blankly at Hermione.

The next moment, horrified screams resounded throughout the kitchen, and all the house-elves disappeared in an instant, leaving only the flame in the stove still beating constantly in the kitchen.

There were three black lines on Hermione's forehead. She was really speechless. Ever since she persuaded these house elves to ask for wages from Hogwarts a few years ago, these house elves have always treated her like this. , and judging by the current situation, these stubborn house-elves seem to remember this incident for a lifetime, and maybe tell their children about it, so that Hermione's reputation as a devil will continue to be passed down.

Thinking of this, Hermione still felt depressed for a while.

And Harry beside her was amused, and he was covering his mouth to suppress a smile at the moment.

After glaring at Harry, Hermione took a deep breath, then raised up the "Quieter" in her hand and shouted:

"I have a book here that records what Mike wants to tell you. Does any of you want to hear it?"

As soon as he said this, Harry was surprised to find that small heads sneaked out from every small corner of the kitchen, looking at them in shock.
