Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

Chapter 579 Wrong Route



Throughout the breakfast time, the students in the cafeteria discussed in low voices the latest announcement on the bulletin board.Among them, the students of the Lion Academy and the Snake Academy were the most discussed, because this incident directly affected their two academies.

There are three announcements this morning.

The first is two weeks of solitary confinement for Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley, and three days for Ginny Weasley.

The second was the removal of Harry Potter and Hermione Granger as Head of the Student Council, and the removal of Ron Weasley as Gryffindor seventh-year prefect.

The third is that Neville Longbottom and Daphne Greengrass will serve as the new President of the Student Council, and Seamus Finnigan will serve as the new Gryffindor seventh-year prefect.

The Snake Academy was naturally celebrating the birth of a student council president in their college. They even thought that they would be discriminated against due to reasons outside the school this year, but such a thing did not happen.

For the first time, winning Gryffindor in the Quidditch competition in recent years, and also getting a student council president, the two joys overlapped each other, and this double joy brought more and more joy.

Although some people feel a little dissatisfied with giving such an important position to a Slytherin under the current situation, Zhang knows that Daphne Greengrass and her sister He has already obeyed Professor McGonagall.As long as Professor McGonagall sticks to his decision, there is really no one in the school who can object to this appointment.

There was no problem with Neville. Ever since the Plants vs. Death Eaters fight at the beginning of school, Neville, who was in charge of this part of the work, kept turning up his word of mouth.As long as Zhang does not stand up and fight with him, he is the best choice in the case of Harry and Ron overturning.And now Neville is starting to look handsome.

It's not a problem for Seamus to be the prefect, after all, the Lion Academy has promised not to use "Explosive Demon" Seamus Finnigan first in school fights.

As for the four people who were punished, Zhang Xu knew something about it.They have been locked up for so long because of the combined punishment of two crimes.The last time I used the time-turner for such a waste of time, in the end it was Harry who played the family card, which made Professor McGonagall soft-hearted. In addition, this matter could not be exposed, so McGonagall put the punishment on hold for now, and made mistakes in the future. Then we will be punished together.Therefore, Zhang Xu has been cautious during this time. Whenever he goes out, he must ask for leave. Even if he returns late, he will not spend the night outside. He is afraid that he will be unlucky if Professor McGonagall falls into the hands of him.

The details of what Harry and the others committed this time are still unknown to Zhang Xu, but he can guess their crime this time from the darkened faces of Professor McGonagall, Lupine, and Black on the professor's bench, as well as the recent events. It's a big deal.

Today's first class is Charms class. Before class, Zhang Xu asked Professor Flitwick for news, and Professor Flitwick briefly told him what happened early this morning.After listening to Professor Flitwick's narration, Zhang Xu took out a bit of pepper powder in front of the professor and took a sip, then sneezed a few times.

"Professor, I have a cold and I want to take a leave of absence to rest. I want to be quiet."

"Go ahead and pay attention to your body."

Anthony, who was sitting behind the desk in the front row, and the others held up signs to rate the two's flamboyant acting skills.

After leaving the classroom, Zhang Xu came to Dumbledore's tomb, sitting cross-legged on the snow, deeply reflecting on the incident of Harry's trio walking alone.

"You skipped class." Grindelwald appeared behind Zhang Xu, and said in a joking tone, "If I arrest you now, how many points will your college be deducted?"

"I'm on leave." Zhang Xu replied.

"Are you taking a leave of absence to come here to cool off for a while, or to accompany me, the old man?" Grindelwald asked.

"I suddenly discovered today that I disagree with Dumbledore on some matters in principle," Zhang Xu said.

"Interesting," Grindelwald said.

"Your Excellency, do you say that history in the wizarding world is made by heroic wizards like Dumbledore and you, or by ordinary people?

Created by wizards," Zhang Xu asked.

The incident of Harry walking alone in the early hours of this morning made Zhang Xu discover the differences between him and Dumbledore in the "Harry Potter Development Plan".

On the goal of beheading Voldemort, Zhang Xu and Dumbledore are consistent.But in terms of the guiding ideology of specific operations, Dumbledore taught Harry individual heroism, while Zhang Xu instilled collective heroism in Harry.

It is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong when it comes to the line. We can only look at the positions of both parties.

From Dumbledore's point of view, his ultimate goal is to just kill Voldemort and leave the rest alone.

However, the biggest problem with this route is that the error tolerance rate is extremely low.If Harry made a mistake while acting alone, he would probably lose his life when he was isolated and helpless.At that time, Voldemort will have no scruples, and the morale of both sides will ebb and flow. The situation will continue to deteriorate. It is estimated that there is no way to keep the pots and pans in the British wizarding world.

Under the current situation, Zhang Xu's position must follow the state.Otherwise, based on his current situation, to put it bluntly, he has made money and has a wife, and to put it more elegantly, he has a double harvest of career and love. He has no regrets and can pat his ass back.It has nothing to do with him how the situation in England develops after he left. When his Dumbledore called him back then, if Dumbledore left, he would leave and no one else could say anything.

The current position of the country is that the British magical society can be weakened, but not corrupted.When the magic world is exposed next, it is better to have a still active and powerful British magic society in the west to withstand the pressure of the whole world than to stand alone in the east.

After all, the current UK is different from the European continent, which is still a backwater, because there is a shit-stirring stick named Voldemort here. He has muddied this backwater in the UK, and it will be difficult not to expose it later.Unless someone Zhang can now persuade the big guy in front of him to come back out of the rivers and lakes, Europe will drag it if he can.

Therefore, when Zhang Xu educated Harry Potter, he chose the route of collective heroism with a high fault tolerance rate.This "collective" does not refer to the collective in the narrow sense of the "Harry Trio", but includes Hogwarts, the Northern Ministry of Magic and all wizards who fought against Voldemort, as well as the British government.With the support of these forces, Harry can avoid failure to the greatest extent. Even after one or several failures, he can still run away in order to make a comeback, instead of being locked in the basement and waiting for a miracle to happen.And as long as Harry's banner does not fall, Voldemort's actions will inevitably be contained, coupled with the morale, the situation in Britain will not collapse and get out of hand.

Under the influence of Zhang Xu, Harry also chose to believe in the power of the collective at the beginning.But after experiencing a failure, Harry finally did not choose to believe in the Ministry of Magic and the British government again, but chose what he believed in most in his heart, which was his own power.

Before Grindelwald came over just now, Zhang Xu had already figured out why his route failed.Because he made a dogmatic error in this respect and failed to objectively analyze the influence of the environment on a person.

When Harry entered the wizarding world, the stories he heard always emphasized the power of Dumbledore and Voldemort, as if the entire history was written by them.

And when Dumbledore was educating Harry, he instilled in him since he was a child that "you are Voldemort's nemesis, you are awesome, and you are the one who killed Voldemort."

Therefore, Harry had a kind of idea in his heart, thinking that the power that Voldemort possesses only lies in himself, and only he can do the work of destroying Voldemort. As long as he kills Voldemort, the next thing will go smoothly. And Voldemort's minions are vulnerable.

It is precisely because of this fanciful self-confidence that Harry chose to act recklessly when faced with difficulties.

As for correcting Harry's thinking, Zhang Xu had already given up. For Harry at this age, he wouldn't have a long memory if he didn't let him suffer.

Grindelwald, who was standing not far from Zhang Xu, actually laughed out loud after hearing Zhang Xu's question.

"When he and I were young, we both thought we were the most outstanding wizards in the world, we could lead the world and change the world." Grindelwald looked at Dumbledore's tomb and said, "But, later, We found that we were just a few steps faster than the people behind us. Even if there is no me on this road, someone will stand up."
