Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

To be honest, today’s weather is really good. The midday sun is projected straight from the center of the sky, and the windows on the back wall of the auditorium are transparent.

The leaves outside the window are green and oily, reflecting the dazzling golden brilliance in the sunlight. The mottled tree shadows are obliquely projected on the stage behind the main guest table, and the people on the stage are covered in a layer of scattered light and shadow.

Just as the outdoor is bright and quiet, the auditorium at the moment is full of people.

The guests in the hall sit on the four long tables under the stage and talk softly between each other.

If you want to be born, these guests can be roughly divided into two groups: one is mostly pure-blood family, while the other is mostly half-blood or muggle;

And if they are to be divided by power, they can roughly be divided into three factions: one is standing on the side of the anti-dark wizard with the same position as Dumbledore, and the other is secretly drawn by Voldemort, but the most numerous is the wise and neutral.

But it can be said that today, at this private luncheon hosted by Dumbledore, no matter which party, it is a wizard that is well-known throughout the magic circle.

Among them are officials who have served in the Ministry of Magic, businessmen who have had a great influence on the economic flow of the magic circle, and Scholars who have achieved success in various fields…

And these people, regardless of their friendship, are wizards who have an intersection with Dumbledore.

At this point Dumbledore is standing on the stage behind the main guest seat, greeting the opening of the luncheon to these familiar or unfamiliar “friends.”

Although Dumbledore is talking about some irrelevant rhetoric, the wizzards on the field are not anxious and dissatisfied, because they all understand that the greatest white wizard in the world is impossible to hold this noon for no reason. Feast.

They don’t have to worry, let them know, Dumbledore will say sooner or later.

“…something has been very lively recently, just like the previous ‘personal audio-visual meeting’. In fact, I didn’t have time to experience it that day, but I am quite sorry! I heard…”

Marx sits on the far right side of the main table, and he glances calmly at the scene, and the meaning of the sights that pass from time to time is intricate.

The person who is sitting on the main table with him, the youngest person is already privacy mottled, and he is undoubtedly the most eye-catching one in the audience.

But if you have to say it, in fact, the wizard sitting next to Marx, his eyes are not too small.

The wizard looks tall and thin, with short white hair, a thin chin on the chin with a tipped goatee, and some sharp eyes seem to hide some restless turmoil.

“Karkaroff, I didn’t expect it, you dare to come over.” Marx calmly observed the guests on the sidelines and whispered to the “acquaintances” around him.

After leaving France on the same day, Marx went straight to Durmstrang, in order to induce Karkaroff to complete a major event for him with this new identity.

Although he was also prepared to accept Karkaroff’s escape from fear of Voldemort, it was clear that under his guidance, Karkaroff still did not choose the obvious idea.

“McLorne!” Karkaroff gnashing teeth Authentic, “Don’t forget what you promised me!”

Marx shook his head with a chuckle and said: “Don’t you think that the choice I made for you is actually good?”

“hmph!” Karkaroff coldly snorted, then he turned his head slightly and stopped talking to him.

“…So, it’s my pleasure to take the time to attend this luncheon today! Well, I believe everyone is hungry…”

On the stage, Dumbledore ended his casual chat. He took out the wand and waved it. The long table under the stage was immediately enriched by countless foods.

“Today’s luncheon is officially started. Please let me relax and eat happily!”

After all, Dumbledore returned to the seat in the middle of the guest table with a relaxed pace. After several wizards in the seats greeted each other, they raised the goblet and gestured to the audience.

Marx also lifted the goblet and smiled and sipped.

The luncheon was naturally rich and luxurious, and in this case Dumbledore didn’t save money. But of course, everyone’s attention will never be placed on those refined and delicious food.

While maintaining the proper dining etiquette, the wizards seem to talk casually with other people in the nearby seats. The collision between the goblet and the goblet is mixed with the low-pitched voice, and not any high-end banquet. Big difference.

As the meal time passed a little bit, everyone gradually put down the tableware and entered the post-meal exchange.

At any time, the main role of this type of banquet is to provide a reasonable place for “communication” – almost no one is really coming to fill the stomach.

Just then, Dumbledore suddenly stood up and looked at all the guests on the field with a smile.

“I don’t know if you are satisfied with today’s meals, at least I personally think it’s not bad, isn’t it?”

When Dumbledore spoke, everyone stopped talking to each other because they all knew that the topic of today’s luncheon was finally over.

“Although today is just a private banquet held in my own name, the purpose is nothing more than to give everyone a chance to get together, but there are still a few more important things to be announced here today”

Dumbledore was talking, suddenly left the seat and walked to the rear stage.

“First is the first thing…” He stood on the stage, then suddenly reached out and gestured to the right side of the guest table. “I will tell you about this. This is what I studied at my school, and then I turned. From the school to the young wizard of the Durmstrang magic school – Mr. Marx McLorne!”

Marx hearing this, got up, first slightly nodded to the wizards on the main table, and then gave a little courtesy to all the wizards on the field.

When everyone was confused about Dumbledore’s introduction, he listened to him and went down.

“Yes, in recent years, Mr. McLorne has made a name for himself in the magic circle… Whether it’s imprisonment in Azkaban, or the jailbreak harassing the Quiddich World Cup finals, or even his personal personal audiovisual conference recently, it’s all extraordinary. ,striking.”

“But what I want to say is that when he was still at Hogwarts, his intelligence and his growth have already surprised me.”

“Unfortunately, because of some -” Dumbledore deliberately paused, and continued. “… For some reason, Mr. McLorne left Hogwarts and went to Durmstrang to study – this is indeed a big regret for the school. “”

“So today, I hope that under the testimony of everyone, I can reissue two awards for Mr. McLorne!” Dumbledore said, “Mr. McLorne, please come on stage!”

Marx looked around at the wizard, then left the seat and walked to the center of the stage at a steady pace, standing with Dumbledore.

“As a friend of love, respect for professors, adherence to etiquette, and excellent character, I am awarded the ‘Excellent Medal of Medal’ on behalf of Hogwarts Magic School!”

There was a burst of applause from the field. Obviously everyone didn’t have much interest in this medal.

Marx took the medal from Dumbledore and, after a slight acknowledgment, was not on his chest.

Then Dumbledore continued to speak again.

“For the First Year period, expelled Voldemort, who was attached to the school’s Defense Against the Dark Arts professor – Quirinall Quirell -“

There was a bang in the air.

“For the Second Year period, assist Gilderoy · Professor Lockhart to eliminate Voldemort Remnant Soul, kill Basilisk, and close the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets –“

The noise of the field gradually increased, and everyone whispered their views, and the expressions on their faces were different.

“On behalf of the Hogwarts Magic School, I am awarded the ‘Special Contribution Award to the School’. Thank you for protecting all the teachers and students. Thank you for protecting Hogwarts!”

Marx took another trophy and thanked Dumbledore.

However, there was a perfunctory applause from the previous time, but there was only a low-pitched argument in this episode.

The presence of wizards with identity, status, and cultivation, they would not be like a normal wizard, when they heard the word “Voldemort”.

But at this moment, they obviously can’t maintain a steady state of mind.

However, Dumbledore did not seem to want to let them go, he raised his voice and said: “The next thing is today, please ask the Director of the International Wizard Federation Review Division – Babajid Akinbad! ”

As the wizards moved their sights, an African-born black old wizard came out and walked to Marx with a steady pace.

He and Dumbledore pointed to each other nodded, and then Dumbledore reached out and gestured for Akinbad to make the next announcement.

Akinbad lightly coughed, and then raised the voice: “Investigate Azkaban and undercover Voldemort”; in order to repel the re-entered Voldemort with Gilderoy Lockhart, let the presence of the wizard avoid disaster, International Wizard Union Will be solemnly decided to award Mr. Marx McLorne Order of Merlin Second Class Order of Merlin !”

It was a purple-gold shield medal, the Merlin wizard cap and the two crossed wands were refined, and there were two sparkling silver stars on the top, which were still very eye-catching in the sun.

As the halo circulates, the face of the medal seems to flash a ray of light, making it seem more mysterious.
