Chapter 302 300. I'll go out with you
Slytherin didn't mess around directly, and didn't look at what Jon wanted him to see at all.
Although he is just a portrait now, he still has the wisdom and thoughts of the old man who founded Hogwarts Slytherin College thousands of years ago.
Compared to Jon, he should of course trust and be close to Voldemort, who has his own blood, but of course this trust will not be absolute.
All the information he has learned from the outside world are all hearsay, whether it is the version he heard from Voldemort, or what Jon is holding up a history book to him now, he just passively accepts everything they want him to know.
Since he uses his mind like this, he will not absolutely believe in one of them.
Listening to Jon's story, and seeing all the content related to the signing of the "Secrecy Act" recorded in the "Hogwarts: A School History", the Slytherin in the portrait frowned slightly.
"Hiding all information about wizards and turning the wizarding world underground will indeed end the witch hunt. But is there no objection to this bill? People who have already gained benefits will not give up what they have gained so easily. "
Jon nodded and said.
"Some people objected, but not when this bill was first established. The seventeenth century had reached the peak period of the witch hunt movement, and all wizards were disgusted with this persecution. At the beginning, we negotiated with the Muggle high-level It was just an attempt, but according to what you said, the muggle wizards who launched the witch hunt together with Muggles must have destroyed the possibility of peace talks at that time, so this bill was signed. The bill was signed in 1689 It was not until 1692 that it was officially implemented, and I think it is very likely that in these three years, the Ministry of Magic at that time cleared away the obstacles of court mages and church wizards, and finally ensured that the secrecy law can be truly realized."
"In the 1930s and 1940s, some wizards were tired of the existence of the secrecy law, and believed that wizards should not live in the shadow of Muggles like mice, so they launched a war. He wanted to completely break the secrecy. could not make wizards masters of Muggles. But in the end that man was stopped by Professor Dumbledore, the Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where I am now."
Jon turned the page for Slytherin while talking, so that he could see the records about Hogwarts in the history fifty years ago.
Dumbledore, who defeated Grindelwald, was still a professor of transfiguration at the time. Of course, such deeds will leave a strong mark in the history of the school.
After telling this period of history, Jon is very clear that the next content is the real focus.
"Afterwards, the magic world entered a period of peace, but this peace did not last long. Thirty years ago, your junior, that is, Tom Riddle suddenly rose up. He proposed the theory of pure blood superiority, I think that the purer the bloodline, the stronger the talent of the wizard, and the more power and wealth he should have. But in fact, he himself is only a mixed blood. The so-called pure blood theory is just an excuse for him to win over more people in order to gain power That’s all. But it’s this kind of ambition that made him start another war in the magic world.”
"In the beginning, the war was limited to England, and he was not strong enough to overthrow the British magic regime, but after he came to this labyrinth of the North Pole, which is where you are, he seemed to have completely changed A person, more rational and stronger. Then relying on such changes, he defeated Dumbledore, occupied the whole of Britain, and transformed Hogwarts Castle and the entire British wizarding world into a domestication ground for hemp students. They don't even have the qualifications to learn magic with wands, they can only sign slave contracts and work day and night like house elves."
"Now he has invaded France again, and the next step is the whole of Europe. He wants to be the master of all wizards in the world. After one failure, Professor Dumbledore established another one with the professors who are willing to follow him. So Hogwarts began exile and rebellion."
"This is the truth, sir. It was wrong for the hemp seed to launch a witch hunt in order to gain power, but now it is right for the pure blood to put forward the theory of blood superiority in order to gain power?"
"If you think that guy of yours is doing the right thing, then I have nothing to say, but if he is, why would he lie to you?"
Slytherin fell silent.
He didn't make any more noise, but looked at the book Jon was holding up, his eyes contemplative, as if trying to discern the authenticity of Jon's words.
Jon didn't continue to speak out, he had already said everything he could say, and the rest was to see who Slytherin would believe.
Voldemort is indeed a very demagogic person. It can be seen from his student days at Hogwarts. Except for Dumbledore who has always been wary of him, all other professors who have taught him, including Sla Ghorn and the headmaster of Hogwarts at the time were all deceived by his kindness and amiability, thinking that he would become the pillar of the wizarding world in the future.
But no matter how much he can tell things, the false will always be false, and the lies cannot withstand scrutiny, as long as Slytherin's trust in Voldemort is not blind, he will definitely find the problem himself.
After thinking about the portrait of Slytherin for a long time, the old man with the goatee looked at Jon again.
"What Tom once said to me is indeed doubtful, but what you have shown me now cannot convince me that the so-called history is just a muddy pond, and anyone can pour a few pots of dirty water into it , not to mention the history book you showed me, I am not sure whether it is fair and accurate."
His answer did not exceed Jon's expectations.
It would be a strange thing if Slytherin believed everything he said without saying a word.
"Then what do you want me to do to believe that what I say is true?" Jon asked seriously.
Slytherin looked at everything in this bedroom calmly, and then he said softly.
"Take me away from here, let me see the magic world outside with my own eyes, and I will judge who I should trust."
Jon didn't have any hesitation in his request, and he agreed decisively.
"No problem, sir! I can take you out of here if you want."
No matter what Voldemort got from Slytherin here, as long as he is taken out of here and he sees with his own eyes that what Voldemort said is all lies, then all problems will be solved.
And even if it’s just a portrait, as the former founder of Hogwarts, Slytherin itself represents a very important meaning!
My home is in the north of Jiangsu. I wrote yesterday and went to bed at 5:00 a.m., but I woke up in the afternoon and found that there was a big problem. I was a little confused. I was preparing to store things just in case. I will do this today, and I may have time later I have been staying at home and writing every day
