Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 3060 Veil of Ignorance ([-])

"I know what kind of man he is." Lily, with her big belly, set the table with Pomona. You know what he told me about the Screaming Shack?"

"What did he say?" Pomona asked casually.

"He didn't appreciate James for saving his life at all, and instead said a lot of bad things about him. What does that change?"

Pomona pondered.

There were a few self-studying sessions in the library, and she saw the two of them together. Most of the time, Snape was concentrating on reading and taking notes, while Lily was sometimes distracted, and she would look at "West" with "girly eyes". Fu".

"Aww." Lily groaned while clutching her stomach.

"What's wrong?" Pomona asked with concern.

"It's nothing, the kid kicked me." Lily said blankly, "It's just as energetic as his father."

Pomona watched Lily, not much of a smile on her face.

Jamesby had restrained himself a lot before, but he would still often go out on a flying motorcycle with Sirius and often come home very late.

It might be because of hormones, or because of other reasons. In short, Lily's mood is very unstable, although asking her to come to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix to help her relieved a lot.

Lily might not remember what James had done to Severus, or she felt that the prank in fifth grade was more than offset by saving her life.

"Do you think I'm wrong?" Lily asked, looking at Pomona.

"What did you do wrong?" Pomona asked.

"I shouldn't have been so excited at the time, maybe if he said it well, he wouldn't be with that group of people again." Lily frowned, and pulled her red hair. "Now Aurors are no different from dark wizards. They're all using the Unforgivable Curses."

"I don't think it's going to change anything," Pomona said, but Lily seemed offended by what she said.

"What did you say?"

"Don't think about him, and pay more attention to James and the baby in your womb." Pomona looked at Lily's stomach and said, "Have you had a maternity check?"

"Of course, I plan to give birth in the hospital." Lily put the knife and fork restlessly, "No matter what the situation!"

There are still many wizards who choose to "give birth" at home, or use a spell to "take" the child out, instead of experiencing natural childbirth by Muggle women. Of course, Muggle hospitals also have caesarean section now.

But Lily didn't want to go to St. Mungo's, and James also felt that the current situation was not suitable for her to go to St. Mungo's to give birth. The Potters had a lot of differences on the issue of giving birth at home or going to the hospital.

"When is the next check-up, I'll go with you," Pomona said.

"No need, I can do it alone." Lily said coldly, "Many pregnant women in the clinic go alone."

Pomona stopped insisting and chatted with Lily about other topics.

Cicero once said: Sometimes people who do injustice may only need to regret their actions, so that they will not do evil in the future, and make others less evil. Punishment and revenge should have a certain degree. limit.

But for revenge, Severus became more addicted to black magic that could gain power quickly.

Pomona once had a thought that if she could meet next time, maybe she could persuade him, just like Lily felt that she had a chance to win him back.

Cicero once quoted a line from a play written by an ancient Greek named Ennius: A wise man is "in vain" if he cannot profit himself.

This play has been lost in history, but the name of the play still remains, called "Medea".

She should remember what is "in vain", not to mention what benefit she can get from it?

---------------------------------

Cicero said that the Greeks divided obligations into two types, one of which is ordinary obligations, which can be given reasonable explanations.

The other is absolute duty, which is a requirement of justice and a just act.

Nature has endowed animals with the instinct of self-interest, that is, to protect their own life and body, to avoid things that are obviously dangerous to them, and to seek out and acquire all that is necessary for survival.

People usually think carefully and study whether the issues they consider are conducive to the comfort and happiness of life, the increase of property and assets, the expansion of influence, and the enhancement of power, that is, they can bring help and benefits to themselves and their loved ones.

When interest attracts us from one aspect, and nobility attracts us from another aspect, the result will cause contradictions in our thinking, and fall into the double doubts of agreement and opposition.

There are two kinds of injustice, one is the act of injustice, and Caesar has the audacity to break all the laws of the gods and the earth in order to obtain what he mistakenly conceived for himself-supreme power.Greed finds its clearest expression in the unjust acts of man who desire what he most strongly desires.

The other is "do not save", some people they may, but they do not protect the wronged from injustice.There are many reasons for not protecting, or they do not want to cause hostility, or create difficulties for themselves, or feel that a certain research and career they are engaged in will be hindered, so for those they should protect, they also allow them to be protected. abandon.

The monks in the monastery in the 14th century, after abandoning the body of the deceased, cleaned up the scene of the crime, pretending that nothing happened, and made confessions to each other, saying that the deceased had gone away quietly, as if they wanted to end the crime. cover up.

Of course, the students and the dean had different ideas, although the dean didn't want to disturb the citizens outside, so he quietly investigated.

This is the troublesome part. The students seem to have suddenly become detectives and discussed the "case".

Missing Kelly Wharton, she was found missing this morning.

There was also a Ravencrow girl missing last time because her crush on Bill Weasley was revealed.

Kelly Wharton has no crush on anyone and usually likes to be alone. The roommates in the dormitory found that she didn't come back all night.

It's a common thing in Ravenclaw, the damn door knocker asks hard questions, and if you can't answer the question, you won't be allowed in the common room, so people have to spend the night outside the common room.

But most people would be at the dinner table the next morning, and Kelly wasn't there.

Originally, this was not a big deal, maybe Kelly fell asleep in an empty classroom, and the Ravenclaw prefect told Feliwei about it.

Pierce Thinknes was next to Felix at the time, and he had entered the school as an apparition examiner.

And by such a coincidence, Snape happened to come in through the door of the auditorium, so he "magically" connected the two events.

Thicknesses wasn't a member of the Anti-Dark Arts League, but he had just been transferred from the Ministry of Magic's Transport Division to the Ministry of Magic's Enforcement Division. At this time, anyone who showed "appropriate hatred" for Death Eaters would think he was a decent person.

Regardless of whether Karkaroff confessed or not, the other Death Eaters hid themselves, but Snape was so high-profile, and in short, the scene Pomona saw appeared.

Cicero also said that true honor takes root, and that no pretense can last long.

Whoever thinks that by pretense, by empty boasting, by hypocritical words, he can secure permanent honor, is gravely mistaken.

Cicero also said how to be a noble person.

Insight and comprehension of truth.

Order and propriety in all conduct and speech, including temperance and self-denial.

The upkeep of human society, giving everyone their due, is faithful to the treaty affairs.

Noble, invincible mind, great and strong.

Since the deans of the other three colleges are in the principal's office, the spells, transformations, and potions taught by them cannot be taken. Pomona's herbal class is in the greenhouse, so students from the four colleges stayed. Study in the auditorium.

She didn't say anything, it's useless to say anyway, their minds were not on it, she just asked the children to sit on the bench and not to lift the roof of the school.

There was a wizard in the 19th century. He once put forward such a theory that the wizarding world needs more talents, and young wizards should have equal opportunities, so that no matter what their background is, they can study hard after entering school and apply for any position in the future.

To do this, first of all, the children of wizarding families must not take the lead in "running away". As a result, the level of some children of wizarding families after entering school is not much different from that of freshmen in the Muggle world.

Then there is another performance system, similar to the hourglass of various colleges, as long as you work hard, you will get extra points, and there will be no situation where you will not see results no matter how hard you work.

After selecting outstanding and talented talents, the next step is to let them give back to the society, or to let those without talents enjoy the fruits of successful practice, which is similar to Muggle inventors, who invented and created new A machine that other people who don't know how to invent can also use it.

Another example is werewolves. The wolfbane potion brewed by potion masters can save them from the pain of transformation. Not every werewolf can brew such a complicated potion.

Under the rule of the feudal aristocracy, people's birth prospects depended on the era of their birth and should be eliminated, and everyone should have the opportunity to change their own destiny.

In order to enjoy justice, a man of high morals is always appointed king, and the reason for making laws is the same as for supporting a king. This man should protect the weak, and establish an equal system so that the high and the low can enjoy the same right.

If they have this from a just and noble man, they are content and feel that there is nothing they cannot achieve under his leadership.

There were always very few people in the Order of the Phoenix, and the loss was even greater after a leak. Many of the people who took pictures with Lily at that time were no longer there.

Originally, she thought that she would never have the chance to meet again in the future.

Who would have thought that he would return to Hogwarts in this way.

The door behind him suddenly opened, and a Ministry of Magic employee came to Pomona.

"They're waiting for you, Professor," said the young man.

"I can't go." Pomona motioned him to look at the students in the auditorium.

The young man shook his head, "I'm just following orders."

Pomona had no choice but to stand up.

"Bill, maintain order." Pomona said to the Gryffindor long table, and followed the Ministry of Magic staff without waiting for the Gryffindor prefect's answer.

Although Filch was there, she felt he couldn't control him, even with Mrs. Loris helping him.
