Chapter 1381： Conspiracy in person

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 him. He invited the other person into the room to talk in detail. He also took the red wine from the wine cabinet and poured him a glass.

“The big fish caught the net and broke it.”

Snape took the red wine from McNeil and explained, "The Order of the Phoenix is ​​here. I suspect that not only them, but the Defense Association is also here. Hogwarts Castle will soon be controlled by them."

 “So, you ran away on your own?”

McNeil really didn't expect that Snape would abandon the others and run away.

"I killed Dumbledore, and the Order of the Phoenix will not let me go easily." Snape knew what McNeil was thinking, and said softly, "If I had run slower, I would have been surrounded and killed in school. .”

 McNeil clinked glasses with Snape and asked, "How do you need me to help you?"

 “I need some help.”

 Snape took a sip of red wine and explained his purpose.

“I’m afraid it will be difficult to gather enough manpower to retake Hogwarts in a short period of time.”

McNeil frowned slightly. At this time, everyone else had already taken a rest, so he was asked to go there to find someone.

 “Let the Aurors go!” Snape reminded, “This time Hogwarts is invaded, I think it’s time to let the Aurors play their role.”

　　“Well…are you sure they won’t defect before the battle?”

McNeil was a little hesitant. Most of the Aurors under his command were not trustworthy. Many of them were willing to stay in the Ministry of Magic just for the high salary and benefits of the Aurors.

"Probably not. If they wanted to defect, they would have done so long ago, and..."

 Snape briefly expressed his personal views on this matter.

He doesn’t think that the people from the Order of the Phoenix will occupy Hogwarts Castle for a long time. It is more likely that they will suddenly appear tonight to save people, and they should leave the school after rescuing people.

 Snape asked the Aurors to go to Hogwarts, just to find out whether his own people in the school were still resisting, and whether the people from the Order of the Phoenix and the Defense Association had left the school.

 He wanted to take back the school as soon as possible and minimize the trouble.

"Okay, I'll have someone inform them." McNeil agreed to use the group of Aurors as cannon fodder.

He was aware of Snape's plan, and had done it very well, 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 would How could the big net we laid out fail?

 The enemy who came was obviously very difficult, otherwise Snape wouldn't have fled Hogwarts in such embarrassment.

 He suspected that Snape had run into that mudblood, which was why he became so miserable.

McNeil felt that this scene seemed familiar. The last unlucky guy was Yaxley, and it seemed like this too...

 “You owe me once.”

McNeil finished the glass of red wine, walked to the fireplace, grabbed a handful of floo powder and threw it into the fireplace, then stepped directly into the green flames and headed to the Ministry of Magic.

 After the two arrived at the Ministry of Magic, MacNeil immediately found the employee who was left behind and asked him to notify the Aurors of an urgent mission.

Being woken up in the middle of the night is never a pleasant thing. 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 people from the Order of the Phoenix have left?”

 After seeing the Auror return safely, Snape guessed the result.

People from the Order of the Phoenix and the Defense Association have been evacuated, and the families of the five students imprisoned in the Hogwarts dungeons have also been rescued.

The whole castle was eerily quiet, and it didn't look like it had just been invaded.

“All our people are missing?”

 After listening to the Auror's report, McNeil looked very unhappy.

"They shouldn't kill easily. Let the Aurors search carefully." Snape was very sure that the Order of the Phoenix would not kill easily.

Sure enough, after a while, the five Aurors who had been cast by the Disillusionment Curse were found. They were all knocked unconscious and thrown in the corner like dead dogs. The only problem was that they could not be awakened by the spell. .

 “It should have been someone who fed him the decoction of living hell.”

　　After Snape checked the unconscious Auror, he gave his own judgment, "Go and get some invigorating potion for them to drink to wake them up."

 After solving the problem, the other dark wizards who were knocked down were also found by the Aurors one by one. They all had similar symptoms. I don’t know why the other party did what they did, but there must be some reason.

 After returning to the principal's office with Snape, McNeil asked straight to the point, "What are you going to do next?"

After Snape repaired and closed the door of the principal's office, he said, "I haven't thought about it yet. I plan to think of other ways."

"How about... threatening him with Hogwarts students or professors?" McNeil tentatively suggested, "He should still have some good friends, right?"

 When he said this, he was completely unaware that the portraits around him were staring at him with their eyes open.

"There's no point in doing that. It'll just **** him off completely." Snape refused directly.

 “Isn’t it bad to provoke him?” McNeil asked puzzledly.

"That guy is not Dumbledore." Snape took a deep look at McNeil and reminded, "That guy is more dangerous and more cruel. Don't forget, those who tried to attack him at his wedding The guys were retaliated against and are almost dead.”

McNeil was silent. He didn't know much about the Mudblood Albert Anderson. He only knew that he was very powerful and very smart. He also formed a defense association to fight against them and was regarded as a great enemy by the Dark Lord.

"That guy restrained his people not to kill our people, just to reserve the final bottom line for both parties. Once we take the initiative to break this tacit understanding, things may not end as well as tonight." Snape Shaking 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 killed many Death Eaters?” McNeil looked stunned.

"That's different. It was Scrimgeour and the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic who killed him. It had nothing to do with him." Snape explained: "Once the situation is completely out of control, it will only be worse than the one in Hogsmeade. At that time, both sides will kill each other at all costs, how much advantage do you think we can have?"

 In the final analysis, their ability to rule the British wizarding world is mostly because of the Dark Lord.

Although the Death Eaters are very powerful, they are powerless when facing Albert Anderson, a monster comparable to Dumbledore. What's more, that guy has also trained a group of powerful thugs. If you think about it carefully, I think it's a replica of the original You-Know-Who and Death Eaters.

 The situations of both parties have been reversed.

However, the people of the Defense Association were obviously more popular than them.

"So, if the Dark Lord can't kill that Mudblood, no matter how much we do, it won't help?" McNeil also realized this problem, "What about your mission preparations? I don't think the Dark Lord will allow you to give up. That mission.”

 He suspected that the Dark Lord was counting on Snape to help him kill the Mudblood.

"The Dark Lord did not set a specific time for me," Snape changed the topic, "According to the information returned by the informant, the Order of the Phoenix seems to believe that the two sides will have a battle sooner or later, and they are all preparing for that decisive battle. "

 “A decisive battle? The Dark Lord and that mudblood?”

"No, the decisive battle with Harry Potter." Snape continued, "One more thing, Albert Anderson has completely controlled the Order of the Phoenix..."

“Do you think we should also prepare for the final battle?” McNeill frowned and interrupted.

"Yes, we'd better not keep fussing, otherwise similar things will just happen again." Snape said solemnly, "Maybe we should reconvene a Death Eater meeting to discuss this matter."
