Wentworth looked in the direction of Slytherin, only to see Cassandra drinking pumpkin soup mouthful by mouthful with an expressionless face. However, Cassandra's eyes were already red and swollen. Obviously, Cassandra must not have slept well last night.

The Slytherins who had been sitting around Cassandra had now dispersed. Some of them gathered around other classmates, reading the Daily Prophet with relish, while others gathered together, pointing in Cassandra's direction.

However, in the face of all the changes in the outside world, Cassandra did not respond at all.

Seeing this, Wentworth could only sigh inwardly, and then carefully read the Daily Prophet in his hand.

According to newspaper reports, Thomas Reaver, head of the Auror Office of the British Ministry of Magic, went out on a mission yesterday morning. He led two Aurors to chase a group of illegal wizards and never returned. Subsequently, the British Ministry of Magic dispatched a large number of Aurors to search for any trace of Thomas Reaver.

In a valley somewhere, the Aurors found the bodies of two Aurors, and there were also a lot of traces of fighting with dark magic at the scene. At the scene of the battle, the Aurors also found Thomas Revo's broken wand and torn clothes. Therefore, the British Ministry of Magic initially judged that Thomas Revo was ambushed while chasing the suspect.

At present, the British Ministry of Magic has preliminarily judged that Thomas Revell, Head of the Auror Office under the Department of Magical Law Enforcement of the British Ministry of Magic, is likely to have died in the line of duty. The Ministry of Magic has decided to appoint Rufus Scrimgeour to temporarily take over the position of Head of the Auror Office.

Seeing this, everything is very clear. Apparently, Dumbledore called Cassandra away from class yesterday because of this incident. Dumbledore obviously got the news in advance.

Thinking of this, Wentworth once again felt in his heart that the magical world might really be like what Rosier had said to him at the beginning, and it was not as beautiful as he had imagined.

You know, for the wizarding world, this period is still the calm before the storm. The head of the Auror Office, a powerful person in charge of all Aurors in the country, was missing and his life or death was unknown after just one mission.

Considering that Voldemort will return in less than a year, by that time, the overall environment in the wizarding world will be even worse than it is now.

Wentworth once again felt the urgency of improving his strength! Although he didn't want to be a savior, he had to at least ensure his survival! At this moment, a noisy sound suddenly came from not far away. Wentworth and others looked in the direction of the sound and saw that at the Slytherin table not far away, Cassandra was surrounded by several people, and the leader was Weylin, who was the Slytherin prefect not long ago.

"What happened in Slytherin?"

Seeing this, Wentworth couldn't help but ask curiously.

Green sneered and explained:

"It seems that it is because Welin once complained to Cassandra that he lost his position as Slytherin prefect, but Cassandra retorted that he was too stupid and tarnished the honor of Slytherin."

Wentworth nodded in understanding and continued to listen. Sure enough, he heard Weilin say angrily:

"Cassandra! If it wasn't for your instigation, would I have caused trouble for the Hufflepuff first-years? If it weren't for your instigation, naturally none of those things would have happened later, and I naturally wouldn't have been removed from my position as Slytherin prefect by Professor Snape!"

Cassandra didn't even raise her head and continued to drink pumpkin juice. On the contrary, a Slytherin first-year student next to her seemed to be unable to bear it and stood up and said:

"Prefect Welin, you can't blame Cassandra for this, right? In fact, Cassandra has done a good enough job. Without her, we Slytherins would be even more embarrassed!"

Seeing that the first-year Slytherin student actually stood up to contradict him, Weilin stretched out his hand in anger, pushed the Slytherin student, and said viciously:

After all, Weilin was four or five years older than the freshman and was very strong. With this push, he almost pushed the freshman down. Fortunately, someone helped him from behind.

Seeing this, Cassandra finally stopped, raised her head slightly, looked at Weylin with disdain, and said, "How could Slytherin have a student like you? You're like a dog that has lost its bone. It's really shameful!"

Hearing Cassandra's ridicule, Welin became furious and stretched out his hand as if he wanted to slap Cassandra, but Cassandra was not afraid at all. She continued to sit in her seat and stared at Welin closely.

Looking into Cassandra's eyes, Welin stretched out his hand halfway, but ultimately did not continue. However, Welin's subsequent action caused a scream at the scene.

Welin suddenly picked up the bowl of pumpkin juice in front of Cassandra and overturned it on the table. The pumpkin juice in the bowl splashed all over, soaking Cassandra's Slytherin robe, and a few drops fell on Cassandra's face and hair.

This sudden change caused screams in the auditorium. Seeing this, Wentworth could no longer sit still. However, when Wentworth was about to stand up, he was held down by two hands at the same time. They were Green and Cedric.

Green said with a half-smile: "You still say that there is nothing wrong between you and Cassandra? I know you won't watch Cassandra being bullied! Leave this matter to me!"

And Cedric also said on the other side: "You are still under Professor Snape's punishment period. It is not appropriate for you to provoke Slytherin again."

Then, Green stood up and said loudly:

"Wow, is this the noble Slytherin? He flips the table at every turn? And he flips his own table! Prefect Welin really opened our eyes!"

"Oh, no, I almost forgot, you are no longer the Slytherin prefect! Mr. Welin!"

After hearing what Green said, coupled with Green's exaggerated expression and shaking body, Welin felt that he was about to explode with anger. Without saying a word, Welin took out his wand and pointed it at Green.

Green obviously did not expect that Welin's reaction would be so intense. He cursed and hurriedly reached for the wand in his arms, but he was still a step slower than Welin.

Weilin pointed his wand at Green and said loudly:

"Lock the tongue and seal the throat..."

However, at the moment when Weilin's spell was about to be cast, someone was faster than him! "Expelliarmus!"

A spell flashed, and Welin's wand flew out instantly! Everyone present looked at Wentworth in surprise... Cedric beside him.

Cedric had already pointed his wand at Weilin without anyone noticing! (End of this chapter)
