He was suddenly tired of being someone who was always being stared at and judged.
These onlookers, who of them understand, even a little bit, what it would be like to have so many things happen to one person, Xi Mo doesn't know, neither does his mother, these people don't know.
A bunch of stupid guys and a stupid woman, Harry thought grimly.
He simply refused Seamus's request to recount what happened that night, and told him to go and read the Daily Prophet like his mother, a paper full of lies that would tell them everything they needed to know .
Seamus thought that Harry was talking irresponsibly to his mother, and the two immediately started arguing...
"Seriously, what's the matter with you two?" said Ron, hastily parting from the crowd and coming out.
"He's talking about my mother!" Seamus yelled.
"Harry wouldn't do that!"
"Yes, we've all met your mother and liked her," said Hermione hastily.
"That was before that stupid woman started to believe every word that the stinky Daily Prophet put us in!" Harry roared back, he had had enough, the pressure that had accumulated in recent times was unreserved break out.
"Shut up, don't you talk about my mother like that!" Seamus said angrily, pulling out his wand and pointing it back.
"I can say what I like, she called me a liar, she is a complete idiot!" Harry's anger rose slowly, and he took out his wand, "You are all the same, disregarding the facts , can’t see the truth.”
"That's enough, you two!" Ai Wen said hurriedly, really worried that they would fight in a moment of excitement.
He looked at the excited Harry and felt a headache.
Turning his head and seeing Simo who was also flushed and panting, he didn't know what to say for a while.
The reports about myself and Harry seeing Voldemort come back to life hadn't been published, and it wasn't the time.
Ivan doubted that even if the report was published or he told Seamo the whole story of that night, he probably wouldn't believe it, just like Dumbledore couldn't make Fudge believe it.
The more you talk, the more counterproductive it will be, unless you put Voldemort in front of his eyes...
If Aiwen has this ability, then let Fudge understand his mistake first.
"Stop arguing, you two, it's been so stiff on the first day of school." Ivan said thoughtfully, "About what happened to Harry and me that night, Dumbledore told you clearly and unequivocally last semester that Voldemort came back Already!"
"Hiss!" Hearing this name, everyone in the common room gasped and couldn't help trembling.
"You're with him, you're all lying," Seamus said stubbornly, his wand hand trembling.
"Whether you are lying or not will be tested by time. We told the truth out of pure good intentions. Believe it or not is your business and your freedom. In the same way, you have no right to let people who know the truth lie." Ai Wen said, "Now, go back to sleep!"
"No, you are all crazy." Seamus said angrily, "I don't want to live in the same dormitory with him anymore, my mother..."
"If you don't think you can live in a dormitory with me, ask Professor McGonagall if you can move out." Harry shouted again, "I've had enough, stop talking about your mother in my ear." Worried about your stupid words."
"Crazy, I'm moving out..."
"That's against discipline, Seamus," said Ron immediately.
"Breach of discipline, me?" Seamus shouted, his face getting whiter and paler, "You tell everyone present, who believes the nonsense they made up about You-Know-Who, do you think they said Are you telling the truth? Ah, I forgot, you and the two of them are in the same gang, and you are all crazy to believe that kind of impossible thing."
In the silence, no one spoke, and it was obvious that most people didn't believe it.
But seeing Aiwen here, no one is willing to stand up, that's really stupid!
"I believe in Ivan!" Colin said, walking to Harry's side.
"Then you are crazy too!"
"I also believe what Mr. Ai Wen said!" Kate suddenly stood up and said.
The little girl was terribly nervous to be the center of attention for the first time, but she didn't flinch.
"Since Mr. Ai Wen said that the man is back, then he must be back."
"Hmph, first-year freshman..."
"Stop making trouble, Seamus, we all believe what Ivan and Harry said, this is the truth." Hermione said.
"You're all crazy!" Seamus said disgustedly, "I see now, a bunch of lunatics."
"Really? Unfortunately for you, buddy, because I'm also a prefect!" Ron said, poking his chest with a finger. Be disciplined!"
He won't reason with them like Aiwen, but this method is undoubtedly more effective.
Seamus seemed to realize that he was dealing with a Head Boy and two prefects, and there was no point in offending them himself.
For a few seconds, it seemed to him that he could only get the thoughts out of his head.
Even, it would not hesitate to fight Ivan and Harry just like this.
But in the end, he snorted contemptuously, and turned away from looking at Ivan, Harry, and Ron.
"Well, who else's parents have a problem with you?" Ron asked aggressively, seeming pleased that the prefects were making a difference.
"My parents are Muggles, buddy!" Noticing Ron looking at him, Dean shrugged. Like Seamus, I don't believe you."
"As I said just now, that is your freedom, and time will tell." Ivan said, taking a deep breath and looking at everyone in the common room, "This happens to be an opportunity, let me say it again, Regarding what I said to Harry, whether you choose to believe it is your own business, but please don't impose your own ideas on others. If I know anyone who quarrels because of this kind of thing, I will definitely lock them up. I will do what I say. Also, if anyone wants to change the dormitory, you can come to me and apply."
Chapter 927 The Germination of Distrust
Gryffindor is facing a split, and distrust is building.
It's bad enough for first-year students to see this scene, Gryffindor has been the most united, proud and belonging house in the past few years, and has achieved impressive results .
But now, whether Aiwen is willing to admit it or not, they are on the verge of internal division.
This kind of thing can only be resolved by time. Only when Voldemort appears again can they prove that they are not lying.
No matter how much I say now, it won't help.
With this time, it is better to unite those who are willing to believe in them, or read a few more magic books to improve their strength.
"You don't know my mother, no matter who you are, don't try to hide anything from her!" Seamus said to himself, with his back turned to them, "Many of you come from Muggle families, and you won't be able to read "Prophecy" during the summer vacation. Home Daily, didn't know that our headmaster had been expelled from the Wizengamot and the International Federation of Magicians because he was losing his mind..."
Ai Wen frowned. If Seamus kept talking like this, he really had to be locked up, otherwise it would be endless.
He didn't want to discuss this kind of thing with them here, it was meaningless.
"My granny said it was all bullshit." Just then Neville began sharply, his voice serious and forceful, "She said it was the Daily Prophet that went downhill, not Dumbledore. She had stopped Subscribed to the paper, we now subscribe to the Hogwarts Newsletter of Witchcraft and Wizardry, that's what's in it. My grandma always said You-Know-Who will come back one day, and she said if Dumbledore said he was back , then he must be back, we must be ready to fight."
"Thank you, Neville!" Ivan said decisively, "Now, let me stress it one last time, all go back to sleep."
As he watched, the crowd dispersed, and for the first time the Gryffindor common room was filled with such mistrust.
To Ai Wen's relief and surprise, many first-year freshmen clearly expressed their support for him.
While many of these people don't even know what Voldemort means, it's still a good start.
At the same time, it also verified his idea that little loli and little Zhengtai still need to develop from scratch...
After everyone left, Ivan and Hermione stayed for more than half an hour.
They drafted a notice together and transcribed a dozen copies. Aiwen plans to let the prefects post it on the bulletin boards of each college tomorrow. The main reason is that he will organize the freshmen to visit the school this weekend, and tell them something else by the way. thing.
When Ivan returned to the bedroom, it was obviously talking inside, but he stopped talking immediately after he entered.
They were talking about what happened just now, talking about Ivan and Harry.
Only Colin said goodnight to Ivan, and then the whole bedroom fell into deathly silence along with the darkness.
The row between Harry and Seamus had upset many minds, and the Gryffindors found themselves in a dilemma.
For a long time, they have trusted Dumbledore and Ivan very much, but it is difficult to believe the fact that Voldemort has returned, because to admit this, not only requires great courage, but also be prepared to face the deepest fear of the soul .
Everyone is thinking, trying to come to a conclusion, but the more they think about it, the more confused they become...
Meanwhile, Harry was rolling and tossing and turning on the sheets.
You know, he had always liked Seamus very much before, but he never thought that something like this would happen tonight.
This is just the beginning, how many people will say he is a liar in the future?What about him being insane?
Although time will tell everything, how many accusations like Seamus will he have to endure before that time comes?
Early the next morning, Ivan and Hermione went to post announcements around the school.
The announcements inside the common room of the other three colleges can be notified to their prefects when they have breakfast later.
"I've thought about what happened last night for a long time, Harry and Seamus..." Hermione stopped suddenly.
She stared in surprise at the bulletin board in the common room, where a large new notice had been posted.
Lots of Galleons, isn't your pocket money enough to cover your expenses?Want to earn a little more gold?Please contact Fred and George Weasley in the Gryffindor Common Room for an easy and almost painless after-school casual.
Please note that all work is at the applicant's own risk.
Their prank products, especially the newly improved quick-acting class skipping sugar series, have entered the stage of human trials, and the tests on their own bodies can no longer meet the requirements. They need to start looking for testers on a large scale and record various adverse reactions after taking them.
Ivan heard Fred and George talk about this before, and they need a lot of "guinea pigs".
Obviously, this work has a certain degree of danger, and it is very unsanitary.No one but themselves knew how many poisonous tentacle seeds, dead bugs, etc., Fred and George had added to those skipping candies.
"They can't do this, it's too much." Hermione said with a straight face, and pulled off the notice.
It turned out that Fred and George had pinned the notice to a notice stating that the first weekend at Hogsmeade was in October.
"Did you know about this?" said Hermione, eyeing Alvin suspiciously and crumpling the revelation.
"I don't know!" Ivan said hastily.
"We need to talk to them, we can't let them go on like this," said Hermione. "By the way, call Ron too."
Like Mrs. Weasley, Hermione had a hard time with Fred and George's product of shenanigans.
Now as a prefect, she felt it was her duty to prevent such things, and it was only up to them to do so.
"I'll talk to Fred and George about it, so that they don't..." Ivan paused, "Well, don't post publicity notices so openly, but if other people voluntarily test their new We have no control over the product."
As long as the amount of Galleons paid was considerable, there would always be someone willing to experiment with Fred and George's guinea pig.
"You're right, we really don't have this right." Hermione said angrily, and walked out of the common room first, "and I'm not in the mood to take care of the two of them now, you know? I Back in the bedroom, I heard that Lavender and Parvati were also discussing the quarrel between Harry and Seamus, and they were unwilling to believe us."
"Oh, I thought Ron told Lavender everything?" Alvin said.
"That's what I thought, she knows more than anyone else, but she still seems stubborn to think that Harry is a liar, a showy liar, and you and Ron are blinded by him!" said Hermione, " It's ridiculous, what happened to these people?"
Chapter 928 Unity and a new captain
"Because of fear!" Ai Wen whispered, "You know, accepting is also a kind of courage, especially admitting that such a filmable thing happened."
Then they came down a staircase, and beside it hung a row of portraits of old wizards, all too busy talking to each other to pay them any attention.
"What did you say to Lavender? Don't you just watch them talk about this kind of topic?"
"Of course not!" said Hermione flatly. "I told her to keep her fat mouth shut and stop talking."
Ivan smiled, this is really Hermione's style!
"However, I'm still a little worried about this. I thought about it for a long time last night." Hermione continued, "We can keep them from talking about this kind of thing publicly, but people will still talk about it secretly. Dumbledore once said, Voldemort's methods of creating conflict and hostility are so masterful, we can only show the same unbreakable friendship and trust."
"That's right, all difficulties can be overcome only by unity." Ivan nodded.
After Voldemort and the Second Wizarding War, there are even more terrifying evil gods, and it is impossible not to unite.
"But it's been less than half a year since he came back, and we haven't taken any action yet, and we've already started fighting among ourselves!" Hermione said dejectedly, and soon regained her composure, "Ivan, I think we should fight for Gryffindor!" To work towards solidarity within and across the Faculty."
"Well, this is indeed the most important thing right now." Ivan agreed, "What do you think?"
"We need to make full use of our status as the chairman of the student union and the prefect. This time organizing the freshmen together is an opportunity and a good start. We can instill in them the concept of unity, and we can also help them get familiar with the school, familiarize themselves with Homework and so on, if this kind of activity is held for a long time, as long as there is more contact, everyone will naturally make friends."
Hermione's thinking was a bit taken for granted, but it was better than doing nothing, and it should have some effect.
Last night, many first-year freshmen stood up to support them, leaving a deep impression on Ivan.
In addition, he intends to unite those who can be united first, and help those who are willing to believe in them improve their strength.
It is obviously unrealistic to make everyone stronger, but it is feasible to train a small number of elites, which is the so-called "Dumbledore's Army".
Along the way, Ivan told Hermione this idea.
After they arrived at the auditorium, Aiwen sent the notice to the prefects of the other three colleges, asking them to go back and post it, and the first-year freshmen who formed their respective colleges gathered at the gate of the castle on weekends.
Malfoy seemed hesitant, but finally accepted the notice and agreed to cooperate with Ivan.
Regardless of the public opinion, after Ai Wen showed enough strength, at least obviously no one dared to oppose him.
What happened in the Gryffindor common room spread throughout Hogwarts at the fastest speed. The auditorium was filled with suppressed whispers as always. Many people were peeping at Ivan. When he looked over Then, he quickly lowered his head again.
It's really inexplicably irritating, but Ivan has no waves in his heart.
