Chapter 1381 Conspiracy in person
"It's surprising that you would come to me for help at this time. It seems that the plan failed."
McNeil was very surprised that Snape came to find him, and invited him into the room for a detailed talk, and even took a glass of red wine from the wine cabinet and poured him a glass.
"When the net caught a big fish, it tore the net completely."
Snape took the red wine from McNeill, and explained, "The Order of the Phoenix is here, and I suspect that they are not the only ones. I think the Defense Society has also gone. Hogwarts Castle will soon be under their control."
"So, you ran away by yourself?"
McNeill really didn't expect Snape to leave the others and turn around and run away.
"I killed Dumbledore, and the Order of the Phoenix won't let me go easily." Snape knew what McNeil was thinking, and said softly, "If I ran slower, I would have been surrounded and killed at the school .”
McNeill clinked his glass with Snape and asked, "How do you need me to help you?"
"I need some help."
Snape took a sip of the red wine and explained why he came.
"If you want to gather enough people in a short period of time, it may be difficult to regain Hogwarts."
McNeill frowned slightly. At this time, everyone else had already rested, so he was asked to find someone there.
"Let the Aurors go!" Snape reminded, "This time Hogwarts has been invaded, I think it's time for the Aurors to play a role."
"This... are you sure they won't get cold feet?"
McNeil was a little hesitant. Most of the Aurors under his command were untrustworthy, and many of them were willing to stay in the Ministry of Magic just because of the high wages and benefits of the Aurors.
"Probably not, if they wanted to turn back, they would have done so long ago, and..."
Snape briefly talked about his personal opinion on this matter.
He didn't think that the members of the Order of the Phoenix would occupy Hogwarts Castle for a long time. It is more likely that they suddenly appeared tonight to save people, and they should leave the school after saving people.
And Snape sent the Aurors to Hogwarts just to find out if his own people in the school were still resisting, and if the Order of the Phoenix and the Defense Society had left the school.
He wants to take back the school as soon as possible and keep the trouble to a minimum.
"Okay, I'll have someone notify them." McNeil agreed to use the group of Aurors as cannon fodder.
He knew of Snape's plan, and he had done enough, but it still failed. It was obviously not that there was a problem with the plan, but that the number of people who came to rescue those family members was more than them, otherwise Snape How could the big net that was set up fail?
The enemy coming was obviously tough, otherwise Snape wouldn't have fled Hogwarts in such a mess.
He suspected that Snape had bumped headfirst into the iron plate of that mudblood, which was why he became so miserable.
McNeill felt that this scene seemed familiar, and the last unlucky guy was Yaxley, and it seemed to be the same...
"You owe me one."
McNeil finished his glass of red wine, walked to the fireplace, grabbed a handful of Floo powder and sprinkled it into the fireplace, and stepped directly into the forest green flames to the Ministry of Magic.
After the two arrived at the Ministry of Magic, McNeill immediately found the employee who stayed behind and asked him to notify Auror of an urgent mission.
It is not a pleasant thing to be woken up in the middle of the night. Most Aurors came to the Ministry of Magic cursing, and reluctantly headed to Hogwarts through the Floo network after learning about the situation.
"It seems that the members of the Order of the Phoenix should have left?"
Seeing that the Auror returned safely, Snape guessed the result.
People from the Order of the Phoenix and the Defense Association have already evacuated, and the family members of the five students locked in the Hogwarts dungeon have also been rescued.
The whole castle was eerily quiet, it didn't look like it had just been invaded.
"All our people are missing?"
After listening to the Auror's report, McNeill's face was very ugly.
"They shouldn't kill people easily, let the Aurors look for it carefully." Snape was very sure that the Order of the Phoenix would not kill people easily.
Sure enough, after a while, all five Aurors who had been cast with the Illusion Curse were found. They were all stunned and thrown in a corner like a dead dog. The only problem was that they couldn't be awakened by the spell. .
"It should have been fed a living **** potion."
After Snape inspected the unconscious Auror, he gave his own judgment, "Go and get some stimulant potion for them to wake them up."
After solving the problem, the other dark wizards who were knocked down were also found by Auror one by one. They all had similar symptoms. I don't know why the other party did that, but there must be some reason.
After returning to the principal's office with Snape, McNeill asked straight to the point, "What are you going to do next?"
Snape said after repairing and closing the door of the principal's office, "I haven't figured it out yet, I'm going to think of another way"
"How about... How about threatening him with Hogwarts students or professors?" McNeill tentatively suggested, "He should still have some good friends, right?"
When he said this, he was completely unaware that the surrounding portraits were all staring at him.
"It's pointless to do that, it will only irritate him completely." Snape directly refused,
"Isn't it good to provoke him?" McNeil asked puzzled.
"That guy is not Dumbledore." Snape took a deep look at McNeil and reminded, "That guy is more dangerous and more ruthless. Don't forget, those who tried to sneak attack on his wedding The guys were all retaliated and pretty much dead."
McNeil was silent. He didn't know Albert Anderson, a Mudblood. He only knew that he was very powerful and smart. He even formed a defense association to fight against them, and he was regarded as an enemy by the Dark Lord.
"That guy restrained his people from killing our people, and just kept the final bottom line for both sides. Once we take the initiative to break this tacit understanding, then things may not end as well as tonight." Snape Vibrating his lips, he said softly, "I'm afraid all the Death Eaters and Dark wizards who were knocked down in the castle tonight will die."
"But hasn't that Mudblood already killed many Death Eaters?" McNeill looked stunned.
"That's different. It was Scrimgeour and the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic who killed him. It has nothing to do with him." Snape explained: "Once the situation gets out of control, it will only be worse than the one in Hogsmeade. Sometimes both sides will kill each other regardless of everything, how much advantage do you think we have?"
In the final analysis, they were able to rule the British wizarding world more because of the Dark Lord.
Although the group of Death Eaters is also very powerful, they are very powerless when facing Albert Anderson, a monster comparable to Dumbledore, not to mention that guy has also cultivated a group of powerful thugs. Think of it as a replica of the Mysterious Man and the Death Eaters.
The situation of the two sides has been reversed.
However, the people of the Defense Association are obviously more popular than them.
"So, if the Dark Lord can't kill that Mudblood, no matter how many things we do, it won't help?" McNeill also realized the problem, "Then what about your mission plan? I don't think the Dark Lord will allow you to give up That mission."
He suspected that the Dark Lord was still counting on Snape to kill the Mudblood for him.
"The Dark Lord didn't set a specific time for me," Snape changed the subject, "According to the information sent back by the informant, the Order of the Phoenix seems to think that the two sides will have a battle sooner or later, and they are all preparing for that decisive battle. "
"The decisive battle? The Dark Lord and that Mudblood?"
"No, the final battle with Harry Potter." Snape continued, "One more thing, Albert Anderson has completely controlled the Order of the Phoenix now..."
"Do you think we should also prepare for the final battle?" McNeill frowned and interrupted.
"Yes, we'd better stop making trouble, otherwise similar things will just keep happening again." Snape said solemnly, "Perhaps, we should reconvene the Death Eaters meeting to discuss this matter."
