Jon followed Dumbledore on this trip, and overall it was really relaxing.
With Dumbledore around, he didn't have to worry about safety at all, he just needed to enjoy the trip.
But after visiting Madame Maxime and receiving Gabrielle from her, Jon had to think about something deeper. He also understood what the fundamental purpose of Dumbledore's trip to France was.
.
He was observing how the land closest to Britain had been affected by Voldemort's system in Britain.
Judging from the current results, the situation is not optimistic at all.
French pure-blood wizards have not only been attracted by Voldemort's theory of blood superiority, but it seems that they have already begun some kind of cooperation with the British Ministry of Magic.
But just as Madame Maxime said in her mind before leaving, Jon also found it a bit incredible that the French pure-blood executives made this choice.
Because the situation of French wizards and British wizards is different.
The pure-blood wizards here may be more conservative and arrogant than the British pure-blood families, but they are not fools. The implementation of the blood class system can indeed bring them more benefits, but none of them are like Voldemort.
To the point where one person's prestige can suppress the entire group of exploited wizards.
The current situation in Britain, as long as Voldemort himself does not die, will never return to what it was before, because his personal strength has transcended the existence of the group.
There is no such person in the French magic world. Although alchemy masters like Nick Flamel are as famous as Dumbledore, their strength is far inferior to that of the top wizards. Not to mention that he is dead, even if he is still alive
It is absolutely impossible for anyone alive to agree with the current trend of the French Ministry of Magic.
Once the blood class division is officially announced here, the angry Muggle wizards and some mixed-blood wizards, who account for about 60% of the French wizards, will riot.
Anyone with a little bit of brains can see that the French Ministry of Magic will definitely be attacked by then, and the Muggle wizards will "eat the big melon" of all the current high-level government officials, and then form a new magical government.
This is a dead end unless...
Unless the current high-level officials of the French Ministry of Magic are willing to give up their power and surrender to Voldemort, allowing him to take this land of the French wizarding world into his pocket, and then use Voldemort and his British magical government to attack the rebellious Muggle wizards.
carry out suppression.
But are these people really willing to find a master over their heads?
Jon couldn't figure out the key to this, but in fact, he didn't need to think about it.
He is now in the second grade and is about to graduate. He has not yet started the third grade. He has already done enough things this year. He can just leave the big-level considerations to Dumbledore.
He has never felt that he was much smarter than other people in the original work since he had seen another world line in his previous life. Dumbledore would definitely be able to think of things he could think of, and even in most cases.
More than he thought.
In the first grade, what happened to Slughorn was proof.
Dumbledore did not leave France immediately after meeting Madame Maxime. After that, he took Jon and Gabrielle to visit many major gathering places of French wizards, and also visited several people who had been interested in France over the years.
Hogwarts in exile and friends who have been helped by the Order of the Phoenix.
On the road, Jon basically took care of Gabrielle.
This girl who drank the dead soul water to save her life and turned into a ghost, even if she didn't need to eat or drink, she couldn't let herself stay in the hairpin all day long.
Jon was quite familiar with this little girl and knew that she had actually appeared in the original novel. She was the biological sister of Fleur Delacour, the champion of Beauxbatons in the Triwizard Tournament, and she had a quarter of the charm.
Baby’s bloodline.
But now her family members have been wanted to flee France, and she can be said to have no relatives in this land.
"...My parents took me to Madame Maxime's house as a guest. Then, I liked the birds that Madam raised very much, and there was a magic horse in her backyard, so I asked my mother to let me stay in the house.
Let’s stay at Madam’s house for a few days.” The ghost girl said with an aggrieved look.
When Dumbledore was visiting a friend of his, Jon did not go in with him. Instead, he sat outside on the grass and listened to Gabrielle telling her story.
"As a result, on the first night I stayed at my wife's house, my mother and the others were all kicked out of France!"
She was in a depressed mood, Jon sat on the grass, and she sat on the branches of a small tree nearby, looking like a helpless rabbit.
"Later, my sister met me once in the fireplace of Madam's house. She said that they were still being hunted by those bad guys and there was no way to pick me up, so she asked me to hide at Madam's place first... But,
Those people from behind chased me to Madam’s house. In order to protect me, Madam had no choice but to make me drink that bottle of very bitter medicine, which turned me into what I am now.”
"Now, even Madam is leaving..."
To be honest, Jon didn't really know how to deal with children, but he still said broadly.
"They didn't leave you behind and asked you to go with me and Professor Dumbledore to better protect you. Have you heard about Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?"
He wanted to divert the girl's attention.
As expected, Gabrielle followed his words, looking up at her illusory and transparent face, recalling.
"I heard my dad talk about Hogwarts. He told me that it is a magic school controlled by evil wizards. The teachers there are all dark wizards, and the students learn black magic!"
When she said the last words, her originally transparent face turned paler, as if she had just thought that since Jon and Dumbledore were from Hogwarts, they must both be evil.
Like the wizard.
Jon was obviously aware of her wrong guess, so in order to avoid scaring her, he could only speak faster and explain.
"The one your dad told you about is Hogwarts Castle. It is indeed a dark magic school. The Hogwarts Carriage we are taking you to. Everyone there is very easy to get along with. You will like it.
."
"A carriage?" Gabrielle looked down at Jon from the tree branches. Her attention was attracted by the word, "A magic school on a carriage?"
"Yes, a school on a horse-drawn carriage. We have classes every day in various places in the UK. We also hold a banquet on every festival day. Everyone celebrates in a place with great scenery, and every food at the banquet is...
We made it ourselves.”
Listening to Jon's description, Gabrielle was gradually attracted by his words.
"sounds good!"
Jon laughed.
"We had a really great trip."
But there was one sentence that he didn't say out loud, he just answered it silently in his heart.
If it were not in this dark magical world, it would undoubtedly be a better journey.
