Chapter 186： The influence of continuous fermentation (1/2)

As Christmas approaches, the festive atmosphere in the castle is getting stronger.

Perhaps because the Sirius Black incident was solved perfectly, perhaps because the Dementors who have been stationed outside the castle have finally left, this year Hogwarts' Christmas atmosphere is particularly strong, and people's faces are filled with happy smiles.

In the auditorium, Hagrid chose 12 huge Christmas trees, and Professor Flitwick used magic to hang with small candles and shiny stars.

The stars are twinkling, changing from silver to gold from time to time, and it looks extraordinarily spectacular.

Elsewhere in the castle, the splendid decorations of Christmas are all done, and thick sashes made of holly and mistletoe are hung along the corridor, and each pair of armor reveals mysterious lights everywhere. Filled with a strong and enticing cooking scent.

Unfortunately, Ai Wen, Harry, Hermione can't go and see for themselves.

Mrs. Pomfrey insisted that the three of them should not leave, they stayed in the ward and listened to the people who came to see them about the great changes in the castle.

In addition to Snape, other people who stayed at Hogwarts had visited them, and Lupin and Hagrid came almost every day.

Even Mr. Weasley and Mrs. Weasley have been here, and they have brought the latest news from Ron. Ron recovered very smoothly and he could return to Hogwarts after the Christmas holiday.

The only regret is that I have never seen the figure of Sirius Black.

However, the news about him has never been interrupted. In fact, it has almost fallen out of the sky.

At the beginning of the Christmas holiday, people still accused the Ministry of Magic of doing nothing in the Sirius Black and Werewolf events, accusing Dumbledore of hiring a werewolf to become a school professor. The screaming letters of the Slytherin students’ parents rushed to Hogwarts, and the entire castle was full of loud echoes.

On the third day of the holiday, the situation began to reverse.

It is still an endless owl. This time is no longer a screaming letter, but all of them are letters from readers. The owls flew into the ward one after another and landed on three people, Evan, Harry, and Hermione. The letters almost filled the entire ward.

Madam Pomfrey had to use the expulsion magic to stop the owl from coming in.

The main reason for this phenomenon is that the Ministry of Magic stated that shortly after leaving the school hospital, Fudge issued this short statement.

From the statement, people know that the Ministry of Magic finally caught the Sirius Black.

But the result was completely different from what they originally thought. Black was innocent, and the culprit was a guy named Little Dwarf Peter.

The news, like throwing a huge stone into the calm water, instantly detonated the entire magic world, and everyone's interest was mobilized.

The identity of the little dwarf Peter, the truth of the incident, the arrest process in Hogwarts, etc., has become the hottest topic nowadays, and there has been a lot of discussion in the magic world.

After a brief horror, people began to explore the details of the incident.

But the Ministry of Magic’s statement is too brief, and even the omniscient “The Prophet’s Daily” is rare and has no news.

This huge event that shocked everyone was so sudden.

The little dwarf Peter has succeeded in replacing Black, becoming the most evil black wizard under Voldemort's hand. But people were surprised to find that no one actually knows what he did, what plots he planned, and finally how he was caught.
