Chapter 356: Liangshan Marsh in the Magical World

Chapter 357: Liangshan in the Magical World

After confirming that Harry had memorized the information on the parchment, the letter suddenly caught fire, destroying all the records on it.

Then Sherlock took Harry to the outside of House 11. He first confirmed that there were no idle people at this time, and then made a boring move of sticking his head out of his room to look in their direction, and then he told Harry.

"Think carefully, you just saw the address on the paper."

Just when Harry's mind just emerged with the string of place names, a tattered door appeared in front of him between No. 11 and No. 13, and then dirty walls and gloomy windows also appeared. It looked like an extra house suddenly expanded and squeezed out everything on both sides!

The sudden squeeze of a house in a place without any gaps certainly caused a lot of noise, but the Muggles living in the rooms on the left and right didn't seem to notice it at all. The architecture and geology changed drastically.

Sherlock gently pushed Harry from behind.

"Hurry up and go in. There are many people waiting for us inside."

The two of them walked up the broken stone steps together. The black paint on the door was peeling off and covered with scratches. The silver door knocker was in the shape of a coiled snake. There was no keyhole or mailbox on the door.

Sherlock knocked on the black door with his wand. There was a loud sound of metal collision and a clattering sound like a chain. The door creaked open.

The room behind the door was pitch black, but when they walked in, the candlesticks on both sides were lit up, and the dim firelight illuminated the space here.

After walking through the hallway, someone inside seemed to have heard the movement. A flurry of footsteps sounded, and then Harry heard the somewhat excited conversation between a man and a woman.

"Don't block me, I'm going to be in the front!"

"Don't you know Forrest, Tonks?"

"I've never met Harry before! Besides, Sherlock was so handsome that night! If I didn't dislike guys who are too handsome, I would have fallen in love with him!"

The owner of the voice quickly walked in front of them. Harry saw that it was like the audience entering a welcome party. Eight or nine people suddenly appeared from the corner.

He had basically never seen these people before, but Sherlock seemed to have a good relationship with them.

"Ah, Sherlock, if you don't count the incident a few days ago, the last time we met was last year during the Quidditch World Cup."

A dark-skinned wizard hugged Sherlock. Harry heard his name was Kingsley.

The noisy witch with violet curly hair seemed to be named Tonks.

One of the pale middle-aged wizards didn't need to be introduced by others. Harry knew him. It was Professor Remus Lupin, who had been an assistant teacher in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts for a year.

Others included three male wizards, Ephia Dogo, Dedallo Digg, and Sturgis Podmore, and two female witches, Emmeline Vance and Hestia Jones.

Harry didn't know any of these people. Even Sherlock had only met them once at the gathering when he joined the Order of the Phoenix three years ago.

The last person to come out was Mrs. Weasley, who was holding a spatula in her hand and wearing an apron, looking like she had just walked out of the kitchen.

"You came at the right time, the meeting is just about to start."

Sherlock and Kingsley chatted as they walked further into the corridor, and when Harry was about to follow them, Mrs. Weasley grabbed his arm.

"No, Harry, only members of the Order of the Phoenix can attend the meeting. Ron and Hermione are upstairs, you can wait with them until the meeting is over."

Harry could only watch helplessly as Sherlock and a group of adult wizards walked into a room inside.

He was also full of doubts now, looking up at Mrs. Weasley and asked.

"What is the Order of the Phoenix?"

"Ron and Hermione will explain everything to you, dear, I really have to hurry over." Mrs. Weasley took Harry upstairs and whispered distractedly, "We're here. They've come to the second landing of the stairs. You're at the second door on the right. I'll call you when it's open. You can come down and have something to eat."

Just as Harry was going upstairs, Sherlock and his group had already walked into a conference room.

The room was very large, with a huge crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling, illuminating every piece of darkness here.

In the middle of the room was a long table that looked very similar to the four tables belonging to different colleges in the Hogwarts Great Hall. At this time, many people were already sitting around the table.

Dumbledore was sitting in the first seat. When he saw Sherlock and the others come in, he nodded slightly to him and indicated the empty seat on his left.

This chair was obviously left for Sherlock alone, and Sherlock didn't refuse or hesitate, and sat on it directly.

After sitting down, he had time to look at the dozens of wizards sitting here, many of whom were his acquaintances.

The person sitting diagonally opposite him, fourth to Dumbledore's right, with a gloomy face, looking in his direction, was Snape.

And Professor McGonagall, sitting directly opposite Sherlock, first to Dumbledore's right.

Beside him was a middle-aged wizard with a sallow complexion but handsome appearance. After careful identification, Sherlock realized that this was Harry's godfather, Sirius.

Compared with the time he saw him a year ago, he seemed to have taken care of himself a lot, which made Sherlock fail to recognize him for a while.

And Moody, sitting opposite Sirius and next to Snape, nodded slightly in response after meeting Sherlock's eyes.

Others included Arthur of the Weasley family, the eldest son Bill, Mundungus who was responsible for taking care of Harry before Sherlock, and Kingsley Tonks who had just sat down.

The people sitting here now are definitely not all the members of the Order of the Phoenix, but most of the mainstays have gathered here.

Seeing this scene, Sherlock couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart that the 108 heroes of Liangshan Marsh had gathered to enforce justice, overthrow the Ministry of Magic, and recreate a bright and clear world.

Before he had this strange feeling, Dumbledore's calm voice echoed throughout the conference room.

"Okay, now that everyone who can come is here, let's start today's meeting. Let's cut to the chase and let Sherlock talk about what happened when he rescued Harry."
