In the Harry Potter Without Harry Potter

Chapter 189: Contradictions between Britain and France

Jon has never belittled the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, who are largely of half-blood origin and are not treated by Voldemort as the inner core of the Auror.

After all, the reason they are not trusted is simply that they don't have the most noble blood, But in fact, there is no halfway gap in ability.

As long as they have been trained as professional Aurors, these half-bloods who have become pureblood government dogs under Voldemort can also be called elite.

But Jon never expected that Scabior would be able to do such a decisive thing.

"He wants to die?" Nick whispered in surprise.

Fred was shocked, he also really did not expect that an Auror, who is not even a Death Eater, would have such great determination.

Although Jon was also surprised, he still kept his cool.

"Biting off the tongue is not necessarily certain death, but it can prevent us from asking for any information from his mouth that we should not have. Judging from our age, it's unlikely that we'll be able to master difficult magic like Imperius Curse and Legilimency."

Biting one's tongue is not something that can be done easily by relying on one's will, and even if one is determined to do it again, the body will deliberately try to prevent such a self-harming move.

Therefore, Jon found it just in time, and Scabior only bit his tongue, not to the extent of biting it off.

Having his tongue sealed, he could only stare at Jon with a gaze full of hatred to the extreme.

Jon did not want to and was not prepared to drag on, he felt that on this Auror, there must be some important secret hidden, otherwise he would not be so ruthless to himself.

Together with Fred, he even used magic to pry open Scabior's mouth.

Then with the transfiguration spell produced a syringe with a plastic needle, and used the rest of the potion without bothering to save a bit, directly using the syringe, inserting it into the gap between the tongue and the upper jaw bonding, injecting the potion into his throat.

During this time Scabior struggled fiercely, several times almost biting Fred's hand, from the fierce momentum, there is no doubt that once he gets hold of a hand, he will certainly tear off a piece of flesh.

After force-feeding the Truth Potion, Fred still felt some palpitations and gasped, he had grown up so big, still, it is the first time he saw such a person.

And after being pumped with a potion, it didn't take long for Scabior to stop struggling, he was panting and sitting in place, and his original cold and resentful gaze had become hollow.

Jon then breathed a long sigh of relief and asked with a serious expression.

"What is your name?"

"Nott Scabior."

Scabior's voice was a little slurred, even if his tongue was not broken, but he had bitten himself a bit hard, and blood mixed with saliva was continuously flowing from the corners of his mouth.

"Is there anything you have to prove it?"

"Auror's identity nameplate, in my inner pocket."

Fred groped forward into his inner pocket with a wary face, and soon pulled out a metal nameplate identical to the one found on Macnair's body.

Only this plate was plated in gold, and on it, in addition to Scabior's name, his position in Auror's office - "Squad 3 Leader" is on it.

Jon glanced at the inscription on the nameplate, then looked more seriously at Scabior.

"What is the thing you would rather want to bite your tongue off to hide from us?"

Scabior opened his mouth, his own will obviously resisting answering this question.

But the effect of the Truth Potion which Lily had personally prepared far surpassed those inferior goods secretly sold in Knockturn Alley, and no matter how much he resisted, his mouth still opened and closed to answer the question.

"That gentleman. Took half of the Aurors and half of the Death Eaters to France under false identities."

Jon and Fred looked at each other, they naturally knew who the gentleman Scabior was referring to.

"Why does the dark lord want these people to go to France?" Fred asked in incomprehension.

Scabior, who had an answer to the question, told what he knew by himself.

"The mudbloods in France. Stormed the French Ministry of Magic to blow up the government formed by Sir."

Fred frowned tightly, unable to think of the key to the problem.

"So what's the big secret? Everyone knows he's now the head of both the British and French magical communities, so what's wrong with bringing some people to France for support?"

Jon pondered and understood the problem.

"The dark lord can control both magical regimes because he is different from everyone else, and nationality is no longer restricted in his case. What's more, how he took control of the French Ministry of Magic was not honourable, and so far those Death Eaters who took the place of the top identity have not regained their original identities."

"He is strong enough to oppress the mudbloods only, but can't suppress those half-bloods as well as some pureblood wizards within France who might have dissatisfaction with this and try to join the resisting muggle wizards."

"Once exposed, that British wizards have replaced the top of the French Ministry of Magic, and he even arranged a lot of British Aurors and wizards to enter France, to suppress the rebels, then the nature of the whole problem will become different."

Jon looked up as he looked at Scabior, who was still staring blankly.

"The British and French wizards, no matter what level they are on, are very much at odds with each other, and this kind of conflict cannot be divided by bloodlines. When the time comes, in fact, just one of the simplest words can shake the dark lord's rule in the French magical world that has only just begun for a short time - is it the French magical world or the British magical world?"

Nick said in agreement.

"Not to mention the wizards, even those French-born ghosts I know, they could probably be so angry that they would explode if they heard this matter!"

"The best thing the dark lord could have done at the beginning was to come to the front stage and support an obedient French wizard to come to the top and let him control the whole of France in his place. But in this case, it is simply impossible to find someone with such strong personal power and prestige who can carry out the bloodline police, which has forced him to sit in the position of the French Minister of Magic personally."

Jon calmly analysed.

"But at this time there is another drawback revealed, everyone knows that his basic foundation is in Britain, then once the muggle wizards in France revolt, will he let his men come to support and suppress them?"

"If they come, then the conflict between nationalities and races will overshadow the conflict between bloodlines, and the primary and secondary conflicts will be reversed, which will create a situation extremely unfavourable to the dark lord, or even serious enough to shake his unfolding rule over France."
