The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 667 The Curtain Opens ([-])

Ada has also thought about what everyone in the Order of the Phoenix said, and even thought about it a little more.

The Ministry of Magic, Hogwarts, and even the recently established wizarding area, these three places are likely to be the venue of the decisive battle, and the initiative is in Voldemort's hands.

However, in the absence of finding out where Voldemort is hiding, if you want to fight him in a decisive battle, you can only use this method to lure Voldemort out.

Leave the door open and let Voldemort pick a place he likes and strike out.

Even though she had given up the offensive initiative, it didn't mean that Ada could only be forced to fight.To check for gaps and make up for gaps, especially to ensure the smooth flow of information transmission channels, there are many things that need to be done.

The purpose of luring the enemy deep is to catch the turtle in the urn, to kill Voldemort in one fell swoop, and wipe out all the Death Eaters and dark creatures under his command, not to take the initiative to send it to the door.

If there are any mistakes in one's own defense, luring the enemy to go deep will be turned into refusal and retaliation. Simply put, it is for nothing.

If that's the case, Dumbledore is probably so angry that he could jump out of the cemetery and give Ada a hard time.

Although there are many places to guard against, the most important ones are the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts, not to mention the help of Snape's intelligence.With Snapeto, Ada has a little more confidence in the defense work.

But about Snape, Ada didn't plan to tell anyone, and she wanted to keep this secret until the end of the war.

Sensing everyone's earnest gazes, Ada withdrew her thoughts and said, "I've made arrangements. I can't say it's foolproof, but I'm sure I can figure out Voldemort's movements."

No matter where Voldemort chooses in the end, he will eventually gather a large number of people and prepare for battle.As long as Voldemort did this, Snape's eyes would be bound to escape.

This is the advantage of having an undercover agent. You can understand the enemy's dynamics and deploy combat plans accordingly.

But Ada couldn't put all her treasures on Snape.Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, what if something happens to Snape?

Either being discovered by Voldemort as an undercover agent, or there is a problem with the message transmission path, any situation may cause accidents, and Ada must be prepared to deal with accidents.

With Ada's response, everyone took a reassurance collectively, and felt much more at ease.

Immediately, everyone began to discuss how to resist the attack of Death Eaters, especially Hogwarts, which was slightly weakly defended.

Although Hogwarts has left a lot of defensive magic for thousands of years, and Dumbledore also enhanced the school's security measures when he was alive, he still failed to stop the Death Eaters from invading.

Today, all the ancient secret passages leading to Hogwarts are blocked, as is the Twilight Cabin. There are Auror patrols arranged by the Ministry of Magic outside the school, but these defenses are far from enough.

Fortresses are always breached from the inside, day and night, and house thieves are hard to guard against.

With so many Slytherins in the school, there was no telling how many more Theodore Nott would turn out to sell Hogwarts to Voldemort.

"Thief-sensing spells, screaming spells, anti-intrusion spells..." Sirius suggested, "I mean, these spells can be set up within the playground, and once someone tries to invade the school at night, these spells can remind us. "

Fred and George shook their heads together and said in unison: "The curfew at Hogwarts is just a decoration. Students will sneak out of the castle from time to time. You know this very well, Sirius."

"Not everyone is as dishonest as you two!" Mrs. Weasley appeared at the entrance of the living room, frowning.

Even though the twins were now earning a fortune, Mrs. Weasley was somewhat bitter about the pair dropping out of school.

Don't you just want to open a joke shop, can't you open it after graduating from Hogwarts, can't hold on for just a few days!
After being reprimanded by their mother, Fred and George immediately fell silent, imitating what Fleur had done before, shrinking themselves up.It's just that Bill's body can block the view of Fleur, but Ada's small body can't block it, let alone two people.

Fred and George hid, but also didn't hide.

Fortunately, Mrs. Weasley did not continue to criticize and educate the two of them, which allowed the discussion to continue.

"Fred and George are right. What if a student sneaks out of the castle in the middle of the night and triggers the alarm?" Kingsley said, "Once or twice is fine. Once there are more times, our vigilance will be ineffective. There will inevitably be a decline."

The whole thing is a Hogwarts version of "Wolf is Coming", except that the wolf in the story is replaced by a Death Eater.

This group of students in Slytherin House is really worrying.

Ada now particularly agrees with the joke that Sirius said, as long as all the Slytherin students are locked in the dungeon, Hogwarts' defense can immediately rise several levels.

One counts as one, and I would rather kill the wrong one than let it go.

In this way, the school's defense has been improved, but Hogwarts has also lost its significance as a school.

Ada thought for a while, but came up with a not too bad idea, an idea that many Muggles could think of.

She said: "The reason why the curfew at Hogwarts can't restrain the students is because there are too many interesting places in the castle, which attract students from time to time; to the students."

"But they are students who haven't left the school after all," Bill said with a serious expression. "We can't treat them as severely as we treat Death Eaters."

Hearing Bill's worry, the others also nodded.There is no problem with the school's strict management of students, but if the punishment is too heavy, it will be overcorrecting, and it may be counterproductive.

Moreover, it is easy to be used by those who want to, and students who don't know the truth are easily agitated, which will aggravate the internal problems of the school.There is also the group of ignorant parents outside the school. They listen to wind and rain, and public opinion will become unfavorable to Hogwarts.

Ada rubbed her temples. It's not good to be a decent person. It's not fun to be tied up in everything.

"We can be courteous before fighting, and clarify the punishment for violating the school rules in advance, so that they have a plan in their minds." Ada said, "Clarify the rules clearly and clearly, if anyone violates the rules and discipline again--then I will be embarrassed and severely punished." No loan, no tolerance."

The idea that Ada came up with was actually very simple. The idea came from her past dormitory life.

When the curfew time stipulated by the school came, the deans of each college closed the common room of each college, allowing entry and no exit.After the rest room is closed, teachers will be arranged to check the dormitories, and every dormitory and every student must be checked.

If there are still students who can escape the dormitory check, lock the door, and go outside at night to violate the curfew, points will be deducted for single confinement for the first time, and the entire dormitory will be confinement for the second time.

If there is a third violation, then the student's college will play in the dungeon.

Whether it is punitive measures or even the law of sitting, in the final analysis, it is to prevent violations of school rules and prevent them from destroying the school's defense measures.Extraordinary times, extraordinary measures.

"It's stricter, but as long as we explain the rules clearly, they won't say anything." Mr. Weasley said, "At that time, school administrators could still punish students physically!"

Mr Weasley started dating Mrs Weasley while they were students at Hogwarts.One night, the two of them went out on a date for a walk as usual, but Mr. Weasley was caught by the school administrator at the time, Apollyon Pringle, and severely punished.

To this day, the scars of that punishment are still evident on Mr. Weasley.

"I will talk to Professor McGonagall when I go back, and she should be supportive." Sirius said, "I can finally put the bastards of Slytherin in the dungeon!"

There was a burst of cheerful laughter in the living room.
