Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 613 "The Ripper"

Compared with the United States, the law and order in the United Kingdom is much better, but the Whitechapel area has always been chaotic, especially in the Victorian era. From August 1888 to November 8, 7, at least five prostitutes were killed in a row by brutal means .

During the crime, the murderer wrote letters to relevant units to provoke him many times, but he never fell into the law.His daring way of committing the crime, which was repeatedly exaggerated by the media, caused panic in the British society at that time.

That Jack is not as cute as the "Jack" in the Titanic movie, and he is still one of the most notorious killers in Europe and America.

Whitechapel was a famous immigration distribution center at that time, and tens of thousands of immigrants from Russia and Eastern Europe settled here.Due to the meager income, it has long been a hotbed of poverty and crime, with homeless hooligans and soliciting prostitutes living on the streets.Although Scotland Yard established a city-wide patrol network in 1829, the weak police force is still unable to afford the security of the East End where tens of thousands of prostitutes come and go every night.

He is like a devil in human skin, hiding in the crowd.

Magic has a natural affinity like blood has for vampires.

Herbert Varney, who began preying on women in London in the 19s, was killed by a team from the Department for the Regulation and Control of Fantastic Beasts in 80 and is believed to be the real Jack the Ripper.

When the real culprit cannot be found, someone must be found to take the blame. Vampires are nobles in Muggle literature, but they do not mix well in the wizarding world. They are "animals" and "heterogeneous". In London, there is a The Society for Tolerance of Vampires, they have a candle-lit office that aims to improve the status of vampires in the wizarding world.

Vampire hunters refer to wizards who specialize in hunting vampires. According to the "Guidelines for the Treatment of Non-Wizards and Semi-Humans", this kind of discrimination and prejudice is illegal. Article 12 of the guidelines prohibits wizards from destroying vampires.

The now-famous vampire Dracula is fictional, and his prototype is Vlad the Impaler, who died later and his body was quartered by five horses. It is said that his ghost still haunts a monastery.

The earliest vampires came from Ireland. This kind of black magic turned many local people into vampires, or a bloodthirsty disease similar to vampires. People stuffed stones into the mouths of those "patients" in fear.

It was the Middle Ages at that time, and many documents were gone. In the 19th century, due to the influence of Muggle literature, many wizards also thought that vampires came from Eastern Europe, so Varney was blamed.

One Halloween, when Sirius dressed up as a vampire for a Halloween dinner, the girls went "crazy".

His mother is also crazy, but she is crazy, how can the noble heir of Black dress up as that inferior inhuman creature, but Sirius directly ignited the roaring letter, so he wouldn't be so stupid as to talk to Ron He also disassembled it in public and listened to his mother's roar.

Through investigation, it was found that those prostitutes killed by "Jack" were not all lazy or lazy, so they went astray.

They are already very unfortunate, and they will be tortured like hell before they die. What's even more strange is that there is still a Jack the Ripper tour in London. Tour guides will take tourists to those crime scenes to take pictures.

Where Pomona is now is the old apartment building that Roswell is going to demolish this time. Forklifts and excavators have come in, and now Muggles and wizards are setting traps together.

Justin was so uninspired that he used the devil's net again.

Squeezing is a common tactical move in Quidditch. The Slytherin team likes to use this move. Squeezing is when two pursuers enter the goal area and knock the goalkeeper aside, exposing the goal to the third pursuer. in front of. In 1884, the Department of Sports and Sports began to stipulate that only the pursuer holding the Quaffle could enter the scoring area, and the behavior of "clamping" was prohibited and listed as a foul.

This aroused the dissatisfaction of many fans and players. They gathered at the entrance of the Ministry of Magic and threatened to kill the Minister of Magic. Later, the wizards of the Law Enforcement Department dispersed them before leaving.

Every time the Premier League, the European Cup and the World Cup, "football hooligans" will come out to make trouble, the investigation of the British police found.

The behavior of football hooligans is mostly caused by psychological factors, such as broken family relationships, venting dissatisfaction, etc. There are also extreme right-wing elements. These people are not necessarily civilians, but may also be well-dressed "gentlemen".

Violent stadium conflicts will even spread throughout the UK through broadcasting, and the British domestic media hailed it as "England's disaster".

The people are not always right. Their behavior needs to be regulated and corrected. The Muggle government spends a lot of manpower and material resources to rectify violent activities related to football.

The Ministry of Magic firmly believed that the riots caused by the killing were unreasonable, and they insisted on making changes to Quidditch, which has continued to this day.

The Minister of Magic who was in power at the time was Faris Spaven, who was the longest-serving and most verbose Minister of Magic in history. Because Muggles wanted to renovate the city, it seemed that the Leaky Cauldron could not be kept anyway. He used It took seven hours to read a speech to persuade everyone, and finally aroused all the wizards to work hard to protect the Leaky Cauldron. They used a lot of concealment spells to make the Leaky Cauldron unmarkable on the map.

Now, the wizards of the snow wolf were also casting concealment spells, and it was easier to distinguish them from the Death Eaters after the organization had a definite name.

The International Statute of Secrecy stipulates that magic cannot be used in front of Muggles, but no one on the construction site mentioned this matter. There was still four hours before dawn, and they had no time to delay. The excavator dug up the road, revealing 17 The underground water channel repaired by the century was filled with a stench everywhere, and this smell could not deceive the werewolf with a keen sense of smell.

"Concentrate." She patted her cheek, letting herself return to her proper state.

If you want peace, you must prepare for war. The construction site looks chaotic, but it is actually in order. Everyone works in an orderly manner. It is unexpected that Ginny appears.

She wasn't holding a baby—James Lisbert, in a woolen coat, with fiery red hair cropped, looked very capable and very "career woman".

"What are you doing here?" Pomona asked Ginny amidst the roar of the rumbling machine.

"Excuse me, do I know you?" Ginny asked confused.

"You are Mrs. Potter. I think there are not many people in the wizarding world who don't know you and your wife." Pomona said wisely in a hurry, "I remember that your son is not yet one year old."

"It has nothing to do with you." Ginny said a little rudely, and planned to leave.

"I'm not a groupie, I just want to know what you are doing here if you don't stay at home in the middle of the night?" Pomona said loudly to her back, "Your son needs you."

"My mum will take care of him, now Harry needs me." Ginny paused and looked back, her jaw line was so steely when she wasn't smiling, she looked a lot like twins.

"What does he need you for? To fight?"

"You've always been asking me questions, and now I'm asking you, who are you?" Ginny took out the reporter's driver, and almost took a microphone to interview her.

"I hope you and Harry are safe, it's dangerous here."

"Thank you for your concern, we are fine, just take care of yourself." Ginny turned and left after speaking.

Pomona didn't expect others to accept her love, but she still couldn't help being angry, what kind of attitude Ginny had.

So, like a teenager, she stamped her feet in anger.

Some people say that falling in love will make people's intelligence decline, and that seems to be true.

She left Ginny alone and began to think about how to pretend.

Ordinary London streets don’t have any space reserved for street trees. The streets in China are full of trees. Maybe she can plant some scented trees to cover up the smell of sewers?

Even though she was used to using dragon dung as fertilizer, Pomona still couldn't stand the smell, it was so bad that she was going to throw up.
