A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor

Chapter 168 The man behind the plan

"Has the attacker been caught? Are there any casualties?" Boubaji pressed eagerly. She knew nothing about the outside world and was protected from the beginning.

"With some eyebrows," Felix's eyes flashed strangely: "Professor Bubagi, I may need to leave temporarily..."

In the next second, his figure distorted and disappeared, appearing in a wood outside the Busres Hotel.

"Footprints appear."

Felix waved his wand lightly, and a large stream of golden mist spread out from the tip of the wand, and messy golden footprints appeared on the ground, pointing diagonally in one direction.

Although the area covered by the golden fog is not large, it is enough to point the way.

besides--

Felix took out a few strands of brown hair, the source of which was the big boy whose mask he had lifted.

He murmured softly: "Show your traces, master of the hair."

Then Felix crushed a hair on his fingertips into golden light, the light melted into the golden mist, and an illusion of a flustered boy appeared.

He saw a brief picture:

"Wait for me, Yuria!" the boy shouted.

"Put your mask on, Byers!" a stern voice said to the boy.

Then the phantom disappeared, and Felix showed a thoughtful look, "Byers...is that the boy's name, and who is Yuria? The back looks a bit like the student leader who retreated from the organization."

Felix quickly chased after him, and he almost figured out the whole incident——

Why was an Ilvermorny badge left at the site of the first attack? Is it really the threat from the black market intelligence businessman Aladdin?

Why did Celeste, the director of the US Legislative Council, repeatedly ask for additional manpower to assist the defense?

And why are there strong and weak attackers, even underage children?

He has an explanation for all these.

The root of all this comes from the deformed legal system of the Magical Congress of the United States - in order to prevent the exposure of the magical world, they have formulated extremely harsh legal provisions. The original Rappaport laws strictly prohibited all forms of contact, including friendship, intermarriage, and even the need to hide wizarding identities from those closest to them.

By 1965 the law was officially repealed, but the form outweighed the significance, and many of the provisions belonging to Rappaport were absorbed by other laws.

This disappointed a large number of No-Maj-born wizards and first-generation half-blood wizards, believing that the Magic Council had deceived them.

It has developed to the present, and finally gave birth to a resistance organization - the Reform Association.

The Reform Society is a relatively mild secret organization, but its members strongly oppose the practice of the Magical Congress of the United States of America, in order to hide the magic world, and strictly screen friends and relatives around wizards.

...

In Felix's guess, Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was afraid that it had become the base camp of the Reform Association, and it was constantly delivering fresh blood. And how many years will the innovation develop? How many members quietly occupy all walks of life?

For example, are there any members of the Reformation in the Magical Congress of the United States? This is an interesting question.

That's why Felix told the head of the Legislative Council, Celeste, that you are fighting a war that is doomed.

One represents the present and the other represents the future. How can we win?

Felix was still thinking about what role he wanted to play. He didn't have the idea of ​​leading the original innovation to counterattack the Magical Congress of the United States, although he might work hard for a few years to spread his power to the entire wizarding world.

But what's the point?

Turning around a col, Felix heard a heated argument. He silently cast a Disillusionment Charm on himself and paced into the crowd.

There are only a dozen black-robed wizards in front of him, which makes him a little surprised. Are they hidden in batches?

They also set up more than one stash?

Felix was even more convinced that the Renovation would be more than a product of Ilvermorny's students entertaining themselves, at least with adult wizards like Aurors involved.

...

"it's not finished yet!"

"Bethni stayed at the scene, Yuria, you have the best relationship with her, you said, what should we do?" said Byers, the short boy whose mask was lifted by Felix.

Felix was less than a meter away from him, and he used his hair to find the attackers. Felix carefully looked at Byers' young face, his face was stained with blood, and his brown hair was dyed blood red.

The student leader Yuria looked around at his demoralized companions and said with difficulty: "We can't go back. That man, that gentleman... He is too strong, we have no chance, your sister..." He couldn't go on. His eyes were full of sadness.

Felix listened silently, so the girl who was seriously injured by black magic, Bethnie, is a sibling relationship with Byers?

Uh... first lifted his mask to expose him completely, and then healed his seriously injured sister Bethni.

Felix didn't know how to sort out the relationship between the two.

Others were also chattering and comforting the big boy.

"Byers, Yuria is also very embarrassed, if the gentleman didn't do it in the end-"

"None of us can escape." One person answered.

"The Auror from the French Ministry of Magic must have arrived at this time." A student lifted the mask irritably, revealing a round face.

"Can I contact Brother Daniel? He must know the news." Someone suggested.

Yuria shook his head, "His communication is limited, and before the action, I just tell him the launch time and hiding point."

Felix keenly noticed the new name "Daniel", combined with the conversation between them, it can be guessed that this Daniel is likely to be an official of the Magical Congress of the United States, and most likely an Auror.

However, he heard from Maxwell that he had explicitly rejected the entry application of the American Auror, so was that Daniel smuggled to France?

Byers wiped the light red tears and said with trembling lips: "Sister she, she is still seriously injured. Will they give her treatment, Yuria? I am worried about her, I don't even know if she is still alive. do not know……"

The others also lifted their masks, revealing faces full of melancholy.

Yuria gritted her teeth and said, "It's all my fault—"

At this moment, an unfamiliar voice suddenly appeared: "Yuria, you are too reckless this time!"

These people turned their heads one after another, with surprised expressions on their faces, "Brother Daniel!"

Two adult wizards appeared in the col, one of them had long fiery red hair and a slender build, and the other had short dark brown hair and a stocky build.

The crowd surrounded the two wizards and asked questions.

"Brother Daniel, do you know how Bethney is? She is my sister, and I am very worried about her safety!" Byers said.

"Yeah, did she get treatment?"

Daniel, with long fiery red hair, heard this, his face became ugly, "I don't know the specific situation, according to the agreement, we pretended to be distracted by you, and also passed wrong information to others, and didn't go to the public at all. Thrace Hotel."

"But Bethnie...as long as she's alive, she'll be fine. Celeste can't bear the price!"

Byers was a little relieved, and he thought of something immediately, "Then can you go and find out about my sister now? In name, you are Celeste's guards?"

American Auror Daniel showed an apologetic expression: "Byers, our entire team is smuggled over, and it is impossible to appear in front of the French Ministry of Magic."

"It's all the fault of your team's pure-blooded Aurors, who caught Matt!"

"Nonsense!" Daniel reprimanded: "Matt even had the guts to attack senior officials of the Magic Congress, but he was caught?"

Everyone bowed their heads in silence.

Felix's heart moved, Matt? Is that the member of the Reform Society who was caught by Celeste? I did hear that when these people were retreating, they once said, "People have been rescued and can be evacuated."

It turned out to be the information provided by the Auror, and it is no wonder that the location of Matt's custody can be quickly confirmed.

On the other hand, as an adult, Daniel's tone softened, and he looked at Yuria, "Before the situation was urgent, and the communication was not smooth, I didn't have time to ask in detail. How did you guys make such a big battle, I don't remember any Passing information to you. Information from the rest of the Reformation? Fury? Herman? Kelly?"

Others looked at Yuria, the student leader, who initiated this action.

"It's the New York Ghost, Daniel." Yuria said shyly: "Matt saw from above that Celeste was going to attend a conference in Paris, France, and he and I contacted a few people privately, all of whom were graduates. Sheng, we thought we were strong enough, so no one told me..."

"We're going to kidnap her and get evidence of the crime and some high-level congressional intelligence from her."

Daniel looked at him with scrutiny.

Yuria said calmly: "It was very smooth at the beginning, we found the right opportunity to launch a surprise attack, Celeste and her followers were no match at all, let alone those Muggle research experts, but then suddenly appeared Two Congressional Aurors, they were strong, we retreated all the way, but they were in hot pursuit, and Matt was caught trying to buy us time to escape..."

Daniel, an Auror, added what he knew: "That was Celeste's hidden power, and the French Ministry of Magic only allowed her and Cecil to come in, not allowing the Aurors of Congress to enter, so she only She was able to pick two of her most trusted people and smuggled into France to protect her secretly."

"It's no wonder that their shots were very covert, and they deliberately avoided the French Aurors!" Yuria suddenly realized.

"Brother Daniel, were you not there at the time?" a girl with short hair asked.

Daniel said angrily, "If I were here, none of these things would have happened!"

He calmed down and said, "Let's try again. You and Matt got information from the newspapers and organized the first operation privately, but they were defeated by Celeste's hidden forces, and Matt was captured. Then, for the sake of Rescue him, you gathered more people and brewed this operation."

Uriah nodded. As the student leader of the Reform Society, he had this right—of course, only for the students of Ilvermorny.

This is also why Felix feels that these attackers are generally not strong.

Because they are both Yuria's classmates.

Daniel continued to analyze: "This is your perspective. Next, I will talk about how Celeste and I view this operation, and it can be regarded as a warning to you: you must know that in this process, you have committed too many crimes. What a mistake!" His expression suddenly turned serious.

Felix, who was in the dark, twitched his lips slightly. Sure enough, there is a practice of 'experience sharing' within the Innovation Club, which makes them more cohesive, and if they continue to develop, they may not become a new force, thus controlling the entire American magic circle. .

Daniel began to tell the whole incident from Celeste's perspective, which was very novel to the slightly immature Ilvermorny student.

"Her first two trapping attempts failed because of me and some people—"

"Thanks to Big Brother Daniel's intelligence!" a freckled girl said excitedly.

"We are all members of the Reform Association." Daniel did not accept the compliment: "This meeting... I am not sure if she took it as a trap, after all, it is too risky, and a little carelessness will cause international disputes, of course, it may also be She was forced! But she must have been prepared, so she ordered two of her most trusted Aurors to smuggle into France and hide in the dark."

"Your first action failed against this backdrop!"

"And I, and the rest of the Reform Society, don't know anything about it."

"After that, Celeste had the opportunity to get the list because he caught Matt, and also thought that you might start a rescue, so he contacted Congress to send more people, we are the second batch."

Daniel pointed to the short and stout wizard next to him, he scratched his head honestly, but did not speak.

"Celester's excuse was to guard against Grindelwald's admirers, but I got some inside information from my pure-blood teammates, and I guess it may be your handwriting."

"At this point, the two of us are another important factor in addition to Celeste, you and the French Ministry of Magic."

Others were very fascinated. Yuria only knew that Matt was arrested and called everyone to rescue, but she didn't know that there were so many twists and turns inside.
