The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 438 Prisoner of Azkaban

Astoria gripped Jon's left hand tightly.

Then, she only felt the sky turning around for a while, and there was only a mixture of gold and bright red in front of her eyes... She felt a strong squeeze in all directions of her body, and she almost couldn't breathe in her chest.

When she opened her eyes again——

There is an inexplicable coolness in the air...

Astoria couldn't help shivering, and while straightening out her clothes, she leaned closer to Jon.

Looking around in fear——

They are on a small island; in front of them is a huge and eerie castle; behind them is the endless ocean.

In the sky, there are countless black spots... They seem to have sensed the existence of living people, and they start to approach here little by little!

"Expecto Patronum!"

Jon Hart calmly raised his wand with his right hand and said softly.

With the appearance of the patron saint, the chill in the air almost completely disappeared in an instant, and the black spots in the sky seemed to have stopped moving.

"How?" Jon supported Astoria with the other hand, and asked with some concern.

"Well... much better..." Astoria nodded reluctantly, and she explained softly: "Although that thing is no longer on me, after seeing the dementor, I can't help but think of it again ..."

"It's okay, just get used to it!" Jon said with a smile, and at the same time he pointed forward with his finger: "Come with me!"

"Ok!"

The Patronus of the Iron Eater walked at the front of the line, followed by Jon holding a wand, and Astoria followed closely behind Jon.

...

A few makeshift tents can be found less than 100 yards from the castle of Azkaban.

At the position where the tent is located, a large gap in the castle wall can be clearly seen.

This is almost a year ago, ten Death Eaters sentenced to permanent imprisonment in Azkaban, including Antonin Dolohov and Bellatrix Lestrange, left behind when they escaped from prison. under the traces.

At that time, the Death Eaters instigated some dementors, and with their help, rescued their companions from Azkaban... At the same time, the dementors "loyal" to the Ministry of Magic and "loyal" to the Death Eaters They, too, waged a large-scale civil war at this location.

After this incident, the Ministry of Magic never dared to let Azkaban go, even if their leader at the time was Cornelius Fudge (before, there were no wizards resident in Azkaban, and all prisoners The caretaker duties are all performed by dementors).

Azkaban's protective magic has been further strengthened, and at the same time, at least five Aurors and five members of the Law Enforcement Division are stationed in Azkaban every day... On the one hand, to prevent the re-infiltration of the Death Eaters, on the other hand On the one hand, it also prevents the dementors from defecting again.

These tents are where the "staff" of the Ministry of Magic are stationed.

In front of one of the tents closest to the castle, a silver owl stood on the gate rail.

Upon closer inspection, it can be found that this is actually a Patronus...probably belonged to some Auror.

Jon came over and tapped lightly on the doorframe.

"Who?" An alert voice came from inside the tent, and then several wizards in full armor rushed out of the tent at the fastest speed.

Several wands were also pointed in the direction of Jon and Astoria.

"I'm Albus Dumbledore's man!" Jon shouted hastily, and at the same time raised his wand high, signaling that he was not hostile: "Dumbledore sent me here!"

"Dumbledore's men... oh, wait... you're Hart?" the wizard from the tent in front of Jon murmured, frowning.

He lowered his wand, and the hostility in his eyes disappeared.

"Not the enemy!" he told the rest of the Aurors.

Jon also recognized the Auror in front of him... He had worked with him briefly on the Isle of Man.

The other party's name... seems to be Gadwin Robards.

...

"Mr. Robards, I think you should have received the letter from Professor Dumbledore?" Jon asked softly.

"...Of course!" Gadvin Robards: "Wait... Since Professor Dumbledore sent you here, what about others, he should have already arrived here?"

"Oh...he left after sending us here!" Jon explained calmly: "You know, he's been very busy recently!"

"That's right, everyone in the ministry has heard about it... After all, it's a special occasion!" Gadvin Robards sighed and nodded.

"Let's get back to business, Mr. Robards; can I take my friend to visit the prisoner Diana Greengrass." Jon asked as he took out a parchment from his pocket and handed it over.

Gadvin Robards took the parchment in Jon's hand, and roughly confirmed the change: "Of course, the prisoner is in cell No. 114...Do you need me to accompany you there?"

"No need!" Jon pointed to his patron saint, smiled and shook his head.

"Great patron saint, Mr. Hart!" Gadvin Robards gave Jon a thumbs up: "To be honest, I don't want to get too close to that prison... By the way, Didn't the letter say that there might be two girls coming to visit the prisoner Diana Greengrass, why only..."

Jon only felt a chill behind his back, and he quickly interrupted the other party: "No way, you remember wrong!"

...

Led by the patron saint of the iron-eating beast, the two walked into the castle of Azkaban.

The protection along the way here is very tight, and one or two dementors can be seen every few steps.

However, the Iron Eater, which was already as tall as half a man, could easily drive away these monsters and let them make way for the two of them.

The castle is actually calmer than Jon imagined... The prisoners inside are very quiet, and there are not as many screams as imagined; but through the windows on the door, you can see that the prisoners are thin, but extremely ferocious and fearful face.

Astoria didn't say a word along the way, but followed Jon obediently... This made Jon feel a little subtle.

When they stepped into the 11th district of the castle, Astoria suddenly said:

"It was my fault……"

"Huh?" Jon was taken aback for a moment.

"I shouldn't have pushed my sister away...Actually, she must miss her mother very much...I'm too selfish..." she murmured.

"..." Jon didn't know what to say.

Astoria raised her head, summoned up her courage, and said, "Jon... If you have a chance, you can also bring your sister here to visit your mother in the future!"

Jon didn't know how to answer, but luckily——

"Let's not talk about that, we've already arrived... This is Cell 114!" He said hastily.

The house number of the cell has a number "114" and a name - "Diana Greengrass".

...

Through the window on the cell, Jon could clearly see the familiar face.

Mrs. Greengrass looked very weak, and she had completely lost her former elegance and composure... She was lying on the stone bed, her face was full of fear, and she was muttering some "dream talk"...

Jon leaned over to listen, only to realize that she had been repeating a sentence: "Don't die... Astoria... my daughter..."

"Mom!" Tears welled up on Astoria's face, and she rushed over desperately.

There was no lock on the door at all, and she could easily push it open.

Kneeling in front of the stone bed, she whispered her mother's name.

Jon didn't come closer, but gestured to the Patronus to protect her.

In fact, Jon didn't even step near the cell.

...

Some casually glanced around.

Jon found that the master in a cell opposite was talking in his sleep just like Mrs. Greengrass.

He took a few steps closer curiously.

It was an extremely decadent middle-aged man. His weak voice came from the cell: "Master... no... please... he can't do it... he really can't do it..."

Jon couldn't help blinking, and looked at the cell number.

The number is "113".

And the name is - "Lucius Malfoy"!
