The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 175 New Letter
The auditorium is filled with a strong festive atmosphere. In addition to the common pumpkin lanterns and bat decorations, there are also some local decorations, such as some ghost models.Special snacks such as sugar skulls, blood bonbons and tombstone biscuits also appeared on the dining table.

"Isn't it Halloween tomorrow? Why is it like a holiday today?" Ryan asked a little strangely.Several students around also showed puzzled expressions.

Hermione next to her replied after hearing the question: "This place is different from our British habits. Halloween in South America is from October 31st to November [-]nd, a total of three days."

It seems that wizards and Muggles in South America have longer holidays, but this is a good thing for Ryan, after all, everyone likes holidays.At least from a dietary point of view, Castro Bruso's festival diet is much richer than the daily diet,
It's just that Ryan's good mood didn't last long, and he received several letters in the morning of Halloween the next day.There are letters from the Weasley twins, Percy, and even Colin and Ron, who don't usually communicate much. These letters tell Lane that a terrible thing happened in the school: Sirius Black didn't know How did he break into the school, and he even destroyed the portrait of the fat lady of Gryffindor with a knife.

When Ryan came to the common room with these letters, he found that most of the people were waiting here, and everyone had one or two letters in their hands.It's just that the news from other people is not as true as the news that Ryan got. For example, a Hufflepuff student next to him swore that Black broke into the Gryffindor common room and fought with a group of students hundreds of times. The round was forced to flee.

Just as everyone was standing in the room anxiously exchanging the news they had received, Professor Sprout walked into the room and roughly counted the number of people and said to everyone: "Okay, you are all here now, I have some matters Let me tell you something. Many people may have received letters from friends at school about what happened at Hogwarts last night. In order to avoid spreading rumors, I will now give you the formal notice."

"First, Sirius Black did enter Hogwarts Castle last night and destroyed the portrait of the Fat Lady without being able to enter the Gryffindor lounge. Second, there were no casualties in the process, I hope Please don't spread rumors. It is a pity that we did not catch Sirius, so I hope you can also persuade your friends to cooperate with the school as much as possible at this time and not to mess around." After speaking, Professor Sprout also watched He glanced at Ryan.

It seems that the Weasley twins are notorious in the school, Ryan can only return an awkward but polite smile to show that he knows.

After Professor Sprout finished speaking, everyone disbanded. On the way to class, Ryan kept thinking about the defense of Hogwarts Castle.In his previous life, many of his colleagues said that the principal could monitor the movement of the entire school. Of course, this is not difficult from a technical point of view. After all, Harry Potter’s father could do this. Hogwarts has a set The same monitoring system is not difficult.

But if the kind of real-time monitoring mentioned by some colleagues can really be achieved, why didn't Dumbledore directly catch Black?

Of course, Ryan does not agree with the Dumbledore conspiracy theory mentioned by many colleagues. After all, as the leader of the White Wizard, Dumbledore should not be able to indulge criminals.Of course, under this premise, Dumbledore couldn't do anything like knowing that his subordinates had been wronged, and ordered his subordinates to stay in Azkaban for more than ten years.

From this point of view, the most likely explanation is that the monitoring system of Hogwarts can only show who is where, but all this needs to be watched all the time, and there is no automatic alarm function.And Dumbledore, as a headmaster, how could he stare at the monitor like a security guard all day long.

That being the case, Ryan felt that he would be more confident in making troubles in Hogwarts Castle in the future, as long as his luck was not too bad and he avoided those portraits and ghosts.

Naturally, under such circumstances, everyone can't help but discuss how Black broke through the blockade of the dementors and sneaked into the school, but most people think that he should have entered the school through some secret passage.

Because everyone is in Brazil now, the Hogwarts matter is a little far away from them after all.So after discussing for a long time, everyone put this matter behind them.It's just that when everyone wrote letters to their Hogwarts friends that night, they couldn't help but say a few words of comfort.

But the situation of Hogwarts was not bad because of this incident. Just when everyone was about to forget the previous incident, a new unlucky incident happened to Hogwarts.

It happened to be the middle of November that day, and Ryan came back from dinner to find that everyone was discussing the upcoming house competition at Hogwarts in the common room.Especially the Ravenclaw students are very nervous about this year's competition. After all, because Zhang Qiu participated in this exchange event, Ravenclaw can only find substitute players to play the game.

Although Ryan didn't like Quidditch very much, he still joined the discussion circle for social purposes, and occasionally said a sentence or two to pretend that he was not a rookie.

When everyone was discussing in full swing, Hermione suddenly opened the door and walked into the common room with an open letter in her hand.

"Ryan, something happened at Hogwarts. The dementor lost control and broke into the Quidditch pitch. Harry fell straight from the sky."

As soon as Hermione finished speaking, there was an immediate boom in the common room.Everyone started to ask Hermione what happened.As Hermione read the letter aloud, the details of what happened were slowly constructed by everyone.To sum it up in one sentence: the excitement and joy of everyone on the Quidditch field made the hungry dementors out of control. Harry passed out because he was too close to them. Fortunately, Dumbledore drove away the dementors Saved Harry.

"I don't know why dementors are used to protect the school."

"This filth should have been eradicated long ago."

"What is the Ministry of Magic thinking? What is the difference between Hogwarts and Azkaban?"

While everyone in the common room was discussing the matter passionately, Ryan and Hermione returned to their compartments.

"This letter was written by Ginny at Harry's hospital bed. She said that Harry was in a very bad state when he was sent to the hospital. His face was pale and his whole body was shaking. So she wanted to ask Harry this question now. How to solve it?" Hermione asked while handing the letter in her hand to Ryan.

"As far as I know, there's only one solution Harry can use right now," Ryan said.
