From Azkaban To Hogwarts

William had already been mentally prepared for the little gain.

There's nothing I can do about it, it's been twelve years since that incident, and all the children who were still nursing at that time have entered Hogwarts. I'm lucky to have found a breakthrough, so why force anything else? How do you know about probability without trying?

What's more, it's not like nothing was found - if the most direct Death Eaters don't know about Sirius's existence, then there might be something really wrong with this matter.

'I hope Dumbledore can catch Sirius...' William sighed and began to adjust his mentality, "It's been two weeks since school started, and there are still a bunch of dementors stationed at the door... It feels like I answered that It’s like a joke…”

"My old friend quit Foxconn and came to Lanxiang to learn technology. Lanxiang was assigned a graduation package..."

"professor?"

Seeing no reaction from his side, the staff member of the Ministry of Magic approached - he was not too worried about William's safety, he was just worried that the Death Eaters would not cooperate, and William would get angry and kill the Death Eaters in the prison.

"It's okay, I just didn't get enough useful information..."

William shook his head and left directly - if you don't gain enough, you won't gain enough. There are still things to do. You can't live in Azkaban today, right?

——

"You want to go to the ordinary prisoners' side? No problem. Do you need to let the dementors go in first?"

"Okay, then I'll open the cell door right now,"

The striker who led the way opened the cell door without asking, and the receptionist from the Ministry of Magic who was originally following him was also pushed away by William.

"Here comes a newcomer!"

The moment the cell door opened, cheers came from the cell.

'It's still like that...' William couldn't help but cursed secretly, but he was not angry at all.

When William entered the door, Striker left without even locking the door. He just closed the door and thought for a moment - a wizard with a wand who could be called an expert went in. What difference did it make if he locked the door or not? ?

"New guy - no, William, why did you come in again!"

Nine Fingers, who had the loudest voice, was originally the first one to squeeze in and prepare to teach the newcomers, but when he found out it was William, he immediately shouted out.

"Why did I come in again -" William rolled his eyes, "This robe cost me seven Sickles!"

"Yes, these are not Azkaban clothes. Tsk tsk, you are doing well. Which big shot are you following now?"

Nine fingers looked at William's clothes, turned half a circle, and praised them.

"The top guy in the magic world, well, to be precise, his deputy."

Although being a professor is not shabby, it is quite shabby, but the professor's status will make the conversation extremely awkward - this is the case in the Leaky Cauldron. Originally, everyone drank together, bragged and satirized the Fudge government, but after William's professor identity was exposed , many topics disappeared.

"That's awesome, tsk. I work for the Ministry of Magic. No wonder you can sneak to Azkaban with me." The big man ran over and looked at William, "A lot taller than last year, and a little fatter, outside. The food is still good.”

"That's not true," William nodded with a smile, and then started to take out things - he wouldn't take anything that could help escape from prison, but he took a lot of food and drink.

Big bags of chocolate were brought out, followed by piles of chocolate frogs...

"You're so rich, little William!"

The big man shouted happily, grabbed a chocolate frog without hesitation, and stuffed it whole into his mouth.

While they were happily parting, William walked up to the cell leader and handed over a small bag.

The prison boss didn't show any pretense. After taking it, he quickly sorted out the contents and handed the bag back to William. The smile on his face remained unchanged, "There can't be such a enchanted bag in Azkaban. If I'm still caught using the Mark Expansion Curse, I'll have to stay here for two more years."

'I learned it in school and got used to it...forgetting that this is forbidden in the hands of ordinary wizards...'

Before he could come up with an excuse, the cell leader said in a low voice, "There are not many wizards who work well at Hogwarts and can live in the sun after leaving Azkaban. Don't give them those books." If it gets spread, it will give you a bad evaluation - also, I have destroyed those papers you got before."

After saying this, the prison head acted as if nothing had happened, and his voice became louder, "There is also wine, I am happy today, each person can drink two glasses, and we will divide the remaining ones slowly!"

"Great!"

——

Two glasses of wine, neither more nor less - people who have been tortured by dementors will get drunk with just a little bit of alcohol.

"Hey, William, what are you here to do today, can you tell me?"

Jiuzhi asked drunkenly.

"Is this something you can ask?"

The big guy scolded him, then snatched the unfinished wine from him and drank it down.

"It's hard to say specifically, but I just encountered a little trouble..." William shook his head, "When I met a troublesome guy, I knew he was at fault, but the guy pretended to be crazy and acted stupid, and there was no way to deal with it."

"It's not easy, give it truth serum! Didn't you work as a part-time pharmacist before? If you give him a few drops, you'd be taking a risk and use a higher dosage."

"No way, the other party has Occlumency and is very skilled in it."

"Occlumency...that would be troublesome..."

Jiuzhi was extremely positive, "Hey, by the way, the new one is a liar!"

‘Didn’t that guy get out of jail a long time ago? ’

William was stunned for a moment, and then saw a guy he had never seen before standing up who was dealing with multi-flavor beans.

"Brother Jiuzhi, what's wrong?"

"Aren't you bragging about the so-called Occlumency and it's a waste? Come here and solve the problem!"

Nine Fingers is proud - it seems that he has survived.

"Yes, yes," the liar looked very thin and quite normal in stature, but his figure could be blown down by the wind.

Nine fingers pointed at him and looked at William, "Don't look at this kid like this. He was very dishonest when he came in. He almost deceived us all with his lies. If the beater hadn't said that this kid was a liar when he came for his shift, we all thought he was a liar. I accidentally broke the confidentiality law and came in."

'Talent...'

William looked at this little man and couldn't help but admire him - in Azkaban, the unlucky ones would be bullied less.

Firstly, in the chain of discrimination among light-duty prisoners, the guys with big fists have not been harmed by this trick. Secondly, because the relevant prisoners have not violated the interests of others, they have not been beaten before coming in, and they are more likely to be beaten. Be ruthless and hard to bully.

So this guy came in and made up charges - of course, what was missing at the time was probably made up for later.

"Tell me, why is Occlumency such a waste?"

William sat over there, looking at the prisoner he had never seen before, smiling kindly.

To be honest, he really wanted to know how such a useful spell as Occlumency had become rubbish.

"Well... there is a saying in Muggles..."

"It's none of Muggle's business, tell me!"

Nine fingers urged.

"Yes, Occlumency is a spell used to protect one's memory. However, many wizards who have mastered this spell are not very good at practicing it, but they think they can face most difficulties. They even think it can improve their abilities. IQ protects all secrets.”

'It makes sense...'

Seeing that William didn't speak, the new 'liar' spoke faster, "But it's not just the memory that betrays the secrets, but also the wizards themselves - especially when they feel that their memories will be read or targeted with veritaserum, they Other things tend to be ignored.”

"It's about reading faces or reading reactions. When they're nervous, they reveal a lot."

'That's it? ’

It's not a very new theory. William has seen similar things in the translated information.

"Stop being so mysterious and just tell people about your deception. Do you still want to deceive William?"

Before William's disappointed expression could appear, Nine Fingers had already slapped the other person on the back of the head.

"Yes, it's actually about designing scenes based on their personalities, using various magics to create scenes that the other party doesn't want to see, and judging the information the other party wants to hide from their reactions!"

As if he was afraid of being slapped again, the liar spoke quickly, "Occlumency can make things hidden by magic, but the personality will not be protected. With a little research, you can know the other person's personality, and then lie to people. Basically, there is no unsuccessful!"

"Can you be more detailed?"

William came into the mood.

"For example, for a guy with a grumpy personality, we can use magic to build a boring place, and then make him upset and irritable - insects chirping, dogs barking, children crying, animals running out of corners on the road. Boggart...it's best to be natural, after dealing with this, the irritable wizard will naturally be angry."

"It's easy to get things done when you're angry, and then we can take the next step based on what we want to do - if we want to defraud money..."

"Wait, what does this have to do with Occlumency?"

William interrupted the other party's statement.

"It's like this, Mr. William," the liar called him quite naturally, "Those guys who are good at Occlumency feel that they will not be affected by certain emotions, so they are bolder when Occlumency is not activated. "

"That's not what I want. What I want is the truth hidden behind the occlumency surgery."

"That's very simple, Mr. William, just let him lose control. The principle is not much different. To put it bluntly, it is still deception."

The liar suddenly became energetic, "The timid one will make him fearful, the bold one will make him feel that he has an opportunity, the smart one will make him deceive more, and the stupid one will make him suffer more setbacks..."

"It's that simple, Mr. William, if you don't have any clues, you won't want that memory. As long as there is some information, we can guess and deduce the scene that the other party is most afraid of, break through the other party's emotions, and then put that Show the scene and just watch the other person’s reaction!”

"What if the reaction is wrong?"

"That's another possibility, or - the other party is smart enough to see through everything. It's impossible for everyone to be fooled."

The liar shook his head, "The one who can deceive others the most is not others, but yourself. If you can't deceive yourself, it's basically impossible to deceive."

'This guy should be locked up in the deepest room... He is so proud of his deception...'

"Okay, thank you. Let's take a few packs of Chocolate Frogs and go." William handed it over, and the liar happily took it and hid on his bed.

"Who did this guy lie to?"

"God knows who it was before, but he tricked an Auror before he was caught..."

Jiuzhi curled his lips, "I'm just tired of living..."

This is true. Almost all the guys with the most serious crimes in this prison were caught by Aurors. If you lie to Aurors, you are not seeking death.

But those theories are quite feasible - William brought himself into it, and if he was disgusted by the Boggart, he would definitely not be in a better mood afterwards...

‘Liar to Peter Pettigrew? ’

‘This seems to be something… If the previous speculation is true, what he fears most is definitely being chased by Sirius. ’

"In the process of hunting, you can probably get the correct answer by deceiving him about what happened back then."

"However, if the mistakes in details are not discovered..."

"Or, did I lie to him that there was a Death Eater in Azkaban who was willing to confess? Because Black escaped from prison, I wanted to tell him what happened back then to reduce his crime... and then observe whether he would be worried about being exposed and escape?"

"If he runs away, then it's safe to sit down, um, it's feasible -"

"Compared to the previous one, although the level of fear is reduced, the risk of exposure is also lower. Compared to Sirius's visit, the Death Eaters' surrender is less likely to be discovered."

'But the probability of not running away is not small - Pettigrew should have known that there was something wrong with him once he ran away when he was found... Maybe he could just take a gamble by focusing on the pressure? ’

‘Is there a better way to deceive? ’

While thinking about it, William looked at the professional, "Now there is a question. It's the guy I mentioned earlier. What do you think is the best way to deceive him?"

"Let him feel that he is innocent!"

The liar just put the chocolate away and stood up, "Aren't you helping the Ministry of Magic, sir? Just declare him innocent and give him glory!"

"Give him glory?"

"Yes, give him glory, give him glory that he never thought of!"

The liar shouted, "The more he is honored, the more guilty he will be, and he will deal with those dirty things! Then he will be completely exposed!"

"What if he accepts it calmly? And what deviations occurred in the process?"

"Maybe he will accept it calmly, but there will definitely be no hidden dangers! As for the deviation, the biggest deviation is that he has not been convicted yet!"

There is also a third option - but I guess the third option is not feasible.

Hogwarts can't honor him...

"What if the other party pretends to be crazy and acts stupid?"

The other party was a professional liar, and William decided to try something else.

"Give him treatment, trick him into treating him, use all kinds of novel magic, and exaggerate the curative effect - when the treatment reaches the point where he feels that no matter how bad it is, it's unreasonable, he will naturally wake up in glory!"

"Of course, if it's feasible, add another competitor for honor. If he doesn't wake up, he will be inherited by another liar, and he will wake up faster!"

The scammer perfects the scam, "Yes, it's best if the beneficiary is related to him, but he usually hates or looks down upon it!"

'Good idea...but Pettigrew...does anyone really have such a candidate? ’

"This method works, is there any other way?"

William decided to kill the liar.
