Chapter 148 Request for Release (I)

But while Jian Yu was packing her luggage, the members of the gaming club were outraged for her.

"This is absolutely ridiculous!" Ron threw the special edition of the Daily Prophet to the ground and stepped on it. "Pure fabrication! Complete slander!"

It has to be said that Peter Pettigrew is extremely immoral.

Just because Ron did not speak for him at the trial, the Weasley family was retaliated against, regardless of the years of feeding them.

"Mum said that Rita Skeeter is a trouble maker." His twin brothers rarely smiled. Every move of the Weasley family was exposed by Pettigrew. "She digs up other people's information everywhere and does anything to attract people's attention."

"But Jade is going to be fired!" Harry said hastily, "because of Peter and Skeeter - the PlayStation was written as a Dark Magic prop!"

"Parents are protesting." Susan Bones from Hufflepuff also had a worried look on her face. "My aunt said that even the Ministry of Magic has received many complaints, demanding that Yu be expelled, the game console be confiscated, and its spread in Hogwarts be investigated."

"We have to do something!" Terry Boot from Ravenclaw suddenly stood up, "At least we have to prove that Jade is innocent!"

But apart from protesting to Dumbledore, they didn't know how to defend Jian Yu.

No one had ever experienced such a large-scale public criticism. For the first time, the little wizards realized that a single spit from one person could kill someone.

"Hermione is helping with the research." Harry looked helpless. "She said that if she were given two days, she would be able to read through all the legal documents on the British wizarding world and find all the provisions on libel."

"Uh..." Ron scratched his head. Sometimes his intuition was the sharpest among the trio. "But no one can prove that Skeeter is slandering Jade!"

Hearing this, Draco, who had been writing furiously at the game table, suddenly sneered.

Ron, who was already full of anger, was instantly ignited like a firecracker. He jumped up:

"What's wrong again, Malfoy? Do you find it funny to see Jade in trouble?"

But Draco glanced at him haughtily with his grey eyes and, unusually, did not continue the argument.

With this behavior, even Harry felt that he had become a different person, as if the sun had risen from the west.

Draco slowly put down his quill and blew the ink on the parchment in a mysterious way, which was quite like his father's style:

"A brainless red-haired mole who keeps criminals as pets has no right to yell at me."

Perhaps because he had been put in detention too many times by Snape this semester, he had also learned the essence of being sarcastic.

But before Ron could continue his outburst, Draco lifted the parchment into the air and shook it:

"Look, I've written to my father, and he'll definitely help me take action—"

"And you, Weasley, are doing nothing to help Jade except making yourself look even more stupid by yelling."

Bryce beside him also glanced at Ron with an arrogant look, and the two of them performed a combination skill.

Ron rushed forward in anger, wanting to give them a slap on the face, but his eyes were attracted by the words on the parchment:

"The report was too widespread... Parents were misled and deceived... Skeeter manipulated public opinion..."

He stood there in a daze, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind... He tried to capture...

Ron jumped up excitedly!

"I've got an idea!" He turned around suddenly, almost sweeping the ink on the table to the ground, "Control public opinion! Control public opinion!"

He was so excited that he danced with joy and even forgot to punch Malfoy and Zabini:

"We can also submit articles to the Daily Prophet! So that everyone can know the truth!"

Draco sneered again.

"What makes you think you can get the most influential newspaper in Britain to publish your article? Is your father the editor-in-chief or the Minister of Magic?"

Ron was speechless.

He realized with dismay that he was insignificant and his words were of no use!

And his father was caught up in a public opinion storm because Rita Skeeter revealed that he had illegally modified Muggle items!

But at this moment, his roommate Dean Thomas suddenly thought of something and said loudly:

"Ron, your approach is right!"

"I know a Ravenclaw girl, Luna Lovegood, whose father is the editor-in-chief of The Quibbler!"

"She's very interested in the game console, maybe she'd be willing to help!"

Dean's words gave hope to the club members present.

Although many people think that the content published in this wizard tabloid is insane and crazy, its sales are indeed among the best.

Besides, as long as it can help Jian Yu...

——Then it is an excellent newspaper with an advanced spiritual state!

The members began to discuss the content to be submitted.

"The best way is to give video game consoles a fair name." Terry Boot hit the nail on the head, worthy of the name of Ravenclaw's wisdom, "The root cause of the attack on Yu is that parents believe that video game consoles carry dark magic and affect students."

He took out a piece of parchment and a quill pen on the spot and began to write.

In the blink of an eye, a headline appeared in large font on the first line.

[An invention that transcends its time: On the multiple benefits of game consoles]

Such initiative and intelligence made many people look at him with new eyes and praise his academic talent.

"First, it is the training of reaction ability... Attention, dynamic vision, memory, reasoning and perception are all improved..."

"Secondly, it improves the wizard's decision-making ability... and the courage to bear the consequences of choosing different options."

"Besides, reducing study pressure makes people happy physically and mentally..."

"You can also learn knowledge... Care of Magical Creatures... Spells from "Wizards Duel"... Potions and props... "Quidditch"..."

“It helps build social connections...inter-college communication...”

The members had a crazy discussion and came up with over a hundred benefits of playing more games.

While they praised the game console to the sky, they also praised one of its designers, Jian Yu, to the skies.

"A great man with a broad vision, spreading the glory of the game console to all of Hogwarts!"

"I would rather endure misunderstanding than move forward in the darkness with the mission of making the wizarding world progress!"

This work was completed in one go with the joint efforts of everyone. It filled more than twenty pages of parchment and was carefully checked for spelling and grammatical errors more than ten times.

——I’m afraid they don’t have such a wealth of ideas when writing papers, and they are not so careful and serious when taking final exams.

"That's all!" Dean carefully put away a stack of parchment, which was the result of their wisdom. "I'll go talk to Luna!"

The deafening applause almost overturned the Room of Requirement.

But what the hard-working club members don’t know is that

They are not the only ones who have sacrificed for Jian Yu and the game console.
