Chapter 671 Order of the Phoenix Headquarters
Looking with pity at Owen Harris, who had lost his most gifted son but could only endure his grief, Dumbledore left the Office of the Minister of Magic. He apparated to No. 12 Grimmauld Place, Order of the Phoenix. Before he could knock on the door, Dumbledore heard the members inside discussing what happened at the Ministry of Magic tonight.
"That boy tricked both the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters tonight!" Sirius Black was obviously unwilling to be used by the Order of the Phoenix.
"Will the Order of the Phoenix be in trouble?" Harry looked at his godfather worriedly.
"Mr. Potter, I think you have also heard that although Mr. Alan Harris will not let us go to jail, if Albus hadn't been there, we would have had to write a public review several feet thick!" Gryffindor Headmistress Minerva McGonagall raised her eyebrows. She was keenly aware that the purpose of this punishment was to target her as a prank, and she obviously hated pranks.
Nymphadora Tonks put her pale heart-shaped face close to Harry's ear and whispered: "Hey, Harry, actually I wanted to do this to McGonagall when I was studying!" , her originally sparkling black eyes narrowed into slits when she smiled at Harry, and her spike-like short hair also changed from bright violet to Ravenclaw blue.
"That's a bad boy!" Mad-Eye Alastor Moody pounded the ground with his cane, and added angrily, "The cunning Harris family, these cunning Hans! Look at What kind of people are there around them! They are spider demons and manticores! Their family has already mastered the evil knowledge and spread it to their lackeys, obviously just for today." Moody Recalling the fact that he was beaten to a pulp by the Muggle-born Penelo during the Quidditch World Cup, he once again confirmed that the opponent's endless methods came from the Harris family.
Harry couldn't say anything before, but when he heard that Moody and his good friend Hermione began to attack, he couldn't help but bravely retorted: "Hermione is not a lackey! I saw her saved today A lot of people! She even saved you!"
Mad-Eye glared at Harry with his constantly turning magic eyes: "If your recklessness hadn't been exploited by Harris and the mysterious man, would we have needed her to save you!"
"That's enough. This is part of the plan later on. It's not your turn to teach my child a lesson!" Sirius stood up and stood in front of Harry, "And the way to increase the success rate of transforming into an Animagus is When I made the deal with him, I thought he would just turn into an ordinary animal, but who knew that he would actually have the talent to further master the method of transforming into the magical creature Animagus."
Remus Lupine had previously suspected that his best friend had passed on the secret arts of the Black family. Now that he had received confirmation from Sirius himself, he sighed and decided to say something fair and calm everyone down. Atmosphere: "But to be honest, this is not a bad thing. If the two girls don't transform tonight, the Ministry of Magic and us will suffer more serious losses. Even if they have their own goals, at least their goals are the same as ours, which is to fight Voldemort." "
Kingsley Shacklebolt shook his big, bald and dark head, which made the golden earring on one of his ears sway, and then he said worriedly in his unique deep and slow voice. : "But it will be different after tonight."
"It will indeed be different after tonight." Dumbledore finally let himself go in, interrupting their conversation.
"Dumbledore? What are you..." Everyone in the Order of the Phoenix was obviously very puzzled that Dumbledore, who was supposed to be still negotiating with the Ministry of Magic, appeared at the Order's headquarters so early.
"It will be different after tonight... But Kingsley, what we should worry about is Tom's problem." Dumbledore paused, looking at the people in the room with regrets and regrets on his face, "Besides you After leaving, Alan Harris fell behind the curtain."
Instantly, there were disbelieving exclamations in the room.
"Alan Harris?" Lupine stood up in surprise. There is no doubt that Alan Harris is the most talented student he has ever encountered. No matter how he feels about the Harris family, he has no doubts about this. The students still liked him, and the other party was really working for them, the werewolves, who were on the fringes of wizarding society.
"Oh my God, what will Daisy do? Her favorite brother... No, I have to go back to the Ministry of Magic to look after her." Thinking of her best friend and bodyguard, Daisy Harris, Tonks jumped from her chair. She got up and rushed out the door without looking back. In her panic, she didn't notice the debris outside the door and tripped over her boots and fell. But before she even landed, she started trying to hold the ground up with her hands. He got up and rushed out the door.
Seeing that even Moody, who was originally cursing, had shut his mouth, the abnormal behavior of everyone in the Order of the Phoenix made Harry a little confused, "Behind the curtain?" Too many things happened tonight, which made him completely unable to return the blame for what he had done tonight. He was bewitched by the curtains of the Death Hall and almost walked in, even if he received a few slaps from Allen for doing so.
"Potter, it used to be a place where death row prisoners were executed. No one who traveled through the past could come back alive." Professor McGonagall explained softly in a much gentler tone than usual. As the vice-principal of Hogwarts, even before She had quite a problem with Allen, but when she heard the unfortunate news about him, her eyes suddenly turned red. It was only her good upbringing that kept her from crying.
Harry was stunned for a moment. After connecting the curtain with the arch he had encountered before, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Dumbledore: "Principal Dumbledore, you must have a way to save Alan, right?" wrong?"
"I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do." Dumbledore sighed regretfully again, shook his head at Harry, and then looked at Sirius, "Harry should go back to Hogwarts, other things will wait until tomorrow. Besides, you all deserve a good night's rest. Alastor, Kingsley, we need a tougher family to take control of the Ministry of Magic when it comes to Tom, don't worry about the Harris family."
Mad-Eye and Kingsley looked at each other and nodded knowingly. Since the Harris family has lost their most powerful wizard, no matter how powerful they are, they no longer need to pay too much attention. In this case, Owen has become The new Minister of Magic is actually only a good thing for them, because they have a deadly feud with the mysterious man and they can only fight the Death Eaters to the end, and they need the protection of the greatest white wizard Dumbledore in history. This pair of Order of the Phoenix is actually a good thing.
"Can't Harry stay here for one night?" Sirius looked at his godson with some worry. He knew that Alan and Harry had been close friends. In fact, although he said something unforgiving, Sirius himself was very fond of Alan. Some of the practices are still supported, especially at this time, when some of the other party's evil deeds are minimized and the help to him is magnified by memories.
"I'm sorry Sirius, I think it might be better for Harry to go back to Hogwarts. He needs to stay with his friends." Dumbledore looked at McGonagall again: "Minerva, what if Miss Granger If she doesn’t go back to school tomorrow, don’t punish her.”
Professor McGonagall nodded quickly and turned away. UUReading www.uukanshu.net Thinking of the situation of his favorite student Hermione at this time, the serious Head of Gryffindor could no longer bear it. tears.
Dumbledore sighed and turned to Harry, "Harry, you must not have passed the Apparition test yet?"
"No," Harry replied choked with red eyes, "I remember you have to be 17 years old... I'm not as talented as Alan..."
"You also have a talent that no one can match, Harry." Dumbledore patted Harry on the shoulder, then stretched out his forearm and said, "Then you need to hold my arm tightly."
Harry grabbed it with some confusion, and then felt as if Dumbledore's arm was about to break free from his hand, so he quickly grabbed it tighter. Then he found that the surroundings had become dark, and he was being squeezed strongly from all directions. , I couldn't breathe at all, and my chest seemed to be squeezed into an iron hoop and strangled tightly. His eyeballs were squeezed back into his head, and his eardrums were pressed deep into his skull. Then, he breathed in the cool morning air and opened his tearful eyes. He felt as if he had just passed through a very narrow rubber tube. Squeezed out of the tube, it took a few seconds for him to recover and find himself and Dumbledore standing in this place, beside the wooden covered bridge outside Hogwarts Castle.
