Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 147 A revolution without an ideological program cannot win
Vita didn't know how to answer Grindelwald's question.

In fact, she was equally confused.

After the blood alliance was broken, Grindelwald and Dumbledore had fought against each other during the years of confrontation.

However, the two sides are almost evenly matched every time.

From this we can see that there is not much difference in their fighting power.

However, that night, Grindelwald's failure was extremely abrupt.

If the Elder Wand had not been confiscated by Dumbledore, Vita would have even suspected that Grindelwald had lost on purpose out of nostalgia.

"Vita, my life has been like walking on thin ice. Do you think... I can make it to the other side?" Grindelwald asked dejectedly.

Vita looked at Grindelwald in astonishment, "Sir?"

Grindelwald sighed deeply, "We already... can't possibly win..."

"No! We will definitely win!"

"So many of our people have been captured, and the news that I was defeated by Dumbledore has also spread... Vita, from now on, the offensive and defensive situation will be different..."

"Sir! This is just a temporary low point! You must not lose your fighting spirit!"

"You... please step back first. I want to be alone for a while..." Grindelwald said dejectedly.

"Yes..." Vita looked at Grindelwald again, his eyes full of worry.

Grindelwald now seems to have completely lost confidence...

Even though she was Grindelwald's most trusted assistant, she didn't know what to do.

……

Ever since the news of Grindelwald's brutal attack on Hogwarts spread, the wizarding world was in an uproar.

And to everyone's delight.

That same night, Grindelwald was defeated by Dumbledore.

And his most elite team of witches were also captured by the Aurors.

Grindelwald's power was severely reduced after this night.

Although after the incident, many supporters of Grindelwald jumped out and carried out some retaliatory actions.

But the Aurors were prepared for this.

Their hasty and radical actions did not achieve much effect.

However, although these peripheral people were constantly taking action, their leader, Grindelwald, and his direct Witch Party chose to disappear completely.

And so, several months passed.

In the blink of an eye it was June.

The students at Hogwarts were all nervous and busy preparing for the final exams.

There was no time to talk about how Li Weide and his two companions had outsmarted several members of the Wu Cui Party and won the Special Contribution Award.

Yes, regarding the achievements of these three people, Dumbledore announced that they had only captured a few wizards.

Such an achievement was not particularly outstanding among the major achievements of that night.

But it is not an exaggeration to receive a special contribution award.

This also made Li Weide and the other two very popular in school.

After all, there were several witches and wizards! They were Grindelwald's most elite "army"!
From the envious and jealous looks of the Gryffindors, one can see how much attention they have paid this time.

The Gryffindors were all very upset. They went out for night walks every day, but why had they never encountered such a good thing?

Of course, compared to the happiness of Li Weide and Tom.

Anne seems much more depressed these days.

In her opinion, it was her negligence in her job that caused Grindelwald and the Witch Party to suffer such great losses.

Even though she had "embezzled" a little bit of magical power before, she still respected Grindelwald very much.

In particular, she felt even more uncomfortable after she learned from her secret communication with her aunt that Grindelwald seemed extremely depressed because of this incident.

Anne thought, if... she could have successfully won over Levi and Tom to Grindelwald before what happened that night.

Then, Levitra would never have sent a letter to Dumbledore that night.

Grindelwald would not be defeated...

However, what Anne could not have imagined was that Grindelwald would rather continue to be decadent than reveal the role of Levi and Tom in this matter, and he and Dumbledore tacitly protected them.

Although Anne couldn't quite understand it, it also showed how much Grindelwald valued these two boys...

Anne thought, if she could successfully win them over, Mr. Grindelwald would surely not continue to be decadent...

However, before, when Grindelwald's power was at its peak, they did not join. Now that Grindelwald was defeated, it is even more impossible for them to join.

Anne spent her days in this state of anxiety and self-blame. …

The time passed quickly and the final exams were over.

Students have one week to wait for their results after taking the exam.

This week, there are no classes and no huge pressure from exams.

It was like they had a complete holiday and could have fun in school, and as long as they did not violate school rules, the professors would tacitly not interfere.

So, this week can be said to be the happiest time for students.

Of course, it would be a bit sad for the seventh-year seniors... After all, this week is the last week of their student life at Hogwarts.

Today is the last day of this happy week.

Room of Requirement.

Both Li Weide and Tom seemed very excited.

In front of them was a map, and on the map, there were many densely packed small dots moving.

And next to each little dot, there is a name!
"I declare that the Marauder's Map is completed. Yes, I named it the Marauder's Map!" Li Weide said proudly.

"Haha, with this map, it will be much more convenient for me to go to the restricted area to read books in the future!" Tom said happily.

Seeing the two people so happy, Anne, who was watching on the side, could only clap her hands symbolically.

"Annie, be cheerful. You have made a great contribution to the creation of this map! If it weren't for your investigation over the past few months, how would we know so many secret passages?" Li Weide said with a smile.

"Well...but the map I contributed was just a piece of paper, and you were able to turn it into what it is now...Ved, you are amazing."

Although Annie was in a bad mood, she had to admire Li Weide's ability.

The Marauder's Map can even show the whereabouts of Professor Dumbledore and Headmaster Dippet, which shows how magical it is.

But Levid still did it... No wonder Grindelwald thought so highly of him.

"Annie, you seem to be worried these days. Has something happened?" Tom suddenly asked.

"Ah? No...no! Really not!" Annie was startled and quickly explained.

However, after she explained herself, she realized that her reaction was a bit too much.

Sure enough, Tom showed a look of doubt at the right time.

Just when Annie didn't know how to explain, Li Weide suddenly said, "Is it because of your aunt?"

"Ah? You..." Anne looked panicked.

"I remember hearing you say that you have an aunt who went out to explore the world for a long time and has no contact with your family anymore... And on a wanted list published in the Daily Prophet, I saw a name - Vita Rozier..." Li Weide smiled and said, "Is this your aunt?"

"I..." Annie was panicking at first, but after hearing what Li Weide said, she found a reason and nodded quickly, "Yes... She has been away from home for many years. I didn't expect that she would join the Wu Cui Party... I... I don't know what to do. What if everyone thinks that our family has some connection with the Wu Cui Party?"

Tom secretly curled his lips at the side. What is the "what if"? It must be related, okay?
Grindelwald has lost his power now!
Logically speaking, Annie is no longer useful!

He didn't know what was wrong with Li Weide that he had to protect this woman!
Is there any reward for protecting this woman?!

Li Weide smiled and comforted him, "Just because one Rozier fell into darkness doesn't mean that all Roziers have fallen into the quagmire. Even if someone doubts you because of this, as long as you behave properly, there won't be any problems! Look, none of your classmates doubted you, did they? After all, you and we have captured several members of the Witch Party!"

"Um...that's right..." Annie had a smile on her face, but her heart felt even more bitter.

Fortunately, my aunt was taken away by Mr. Grindelwald, otherwise...

Maybe I am already in Azkaban now!
Because Grindelwald and her aunt are the only two people who know her identity.

And the Ministry of Magic's truth serum is not fake...

She looked up at Li Wei De who was looking at the map with satisfaction, and couldn't help asking: "Weid, do you think Grindelwald can rise again?"

"What? Are you worried that he will retaliate?" Li Weide asked with interest.

"Well... this is part of the factor..." Annie had no choice but to follow Li Weide's words.

"Then don't worry, he can't win." Li Weide said: "Even when he was at the peak of his career, it was difficult for him to succeed, let alone now."

"Uh...but why? Let's not talk about it now. Before he lost, he was very powerful! His chances of winning should have been very high at that time, right?" Annie couldn't help but argue in a low voice.

In her opinion, Grindelwald's failure this time was just an accident. If it weren't for this accident, Grindelwald's victory would have been a matter of time!
"He won't lose?" Livid laughed. "Even the voice of the wizarding world cannot be unified. I really can't imagine how he can win."

"You're right..." Anne was silent for a while, then asked, "But... since his ideas can attract so many people, it means there is something reasonable about them. Then why are there so many people against him?"

"Is his philosophy reasonable?" Li Weide laughed. "He doesn't have any mature philosophy at all. It's just a few attractive slogans. And a few slogans alone cannot serve as an ideological program. How can a revolution without an ideological program succeed?"

"Ideological program? What ideological program?" asked Anne.

"Let me ask you, Grindelwald's slogans are loud and clear, but has he ever published a book? Any book about his own ideological program?"

"No...no."

"If he doesn't fail, who will? Even the mustache guy next door at least has a copy of My Struggle... but Grindelwald doesn't even have an autobiography."
