Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 304
Almost everyone didn't sleep well the night Harry disappeared.
Kingsley went to the Burns's house overnight to inquire about the situation, but did not come back all night; the members of the Order of the Phoenix who couldn't wait for Kingsley sent out Lupin, Mondungus and Tonks after much consideration. The three went out to look for Harry, and inquired about the situation by the way.
It was not until dawn the next day, when everyone dragged their tired bodies back to the command post, that Kingsley had returned.
"Bones's house was attacked, and I met Death Eaters before I got there..." Kingsley said vaguely while gnawing on the bread, "I barely broke in and took a look, Bones There is no one at home, as if I had anticipated it in advance..."
"What can I do, Harry"
Kingsley waved his hand to Mrs. Weasley who was preparing breakfast, motioning her not to worry.After he picked up the milk and poured the bread into his stomach, he exhaled.
"In this situation, no news is good news..." He said solemnly, "Whether Miss Bones had anticipated it or someone else told her about the attack, she should be fine now."
"The last contact with Harry was Miss Burns. Since Miss Burns was prepared, Harry should be fine now... Of course, this is just a guess at best, and our search will continue."
"That's all..." Lupin nodded, then asked Mrs. Weasley, "Where is McLean? Has he come out of the study?"
Mrs. Weasley stopped her work, turned around and shook her head.
Before long, Mrs. Weasley and Lena prepared enough breakfast together, and were about to go upstairs as usual to wake up the children, only to find that they had all gotten up by themselves.
Or in other words, they slept for three or four hours at most this night.
Harry hasn't even returned, and Maca has been hiding in the study, and everyone can't sleep at ease.Even if they knew it themselves, even if they were all awake, it wouldn't help.
"Don't be pestered at the door! Go wash, then sit down for breakfast!"
Mrs. Weasley urged the children to hurriedly improve their personal hygiene, and Hermione sat at the table restlessly, but only stirred the oatmeal with a spoon, and seemed to have no appetite.
"That Maca..." Ron sat next to him with a bored look, and whispered, "What are you doing in the study? Why did you block the door... And it happened to be missing in Harry? time!"
"He must have a reason to do this!" Hermione pursed her lips.
"But Harry"
"Stop talking! Can you be quiet?"
Seeing Ron wanted to continue speaking, Hermione interrupted him irritably.
Ron sighed when he saw this, he picked up the box of oatmeal and poured some into his bowl, and then picked up the milk jug to pour it into the bowl.
"Is there no movement in the study?" Lupin asked.
Fred and George on the side shook their heads at the same time.
"We just went to see it again..." Fred said
"It's the same as yesterday, the curse on the door has not been lifted." George continued tacitly.
There was a moment of silence. Everyone was eating breakfast every now and then. Only Lupin and Kingsley exchanged their opinions softly from time to time. It seemed that they were discussing where to find someone for a while.
When everyone was almost half full, Lupin, Kingsley, and Tonks stood up again, planning to go out and search for Harry's trail.
"You also need to rest, we can go out instead..." Mrs. Weasley couldn't help saying.
"It's okay, I have to go to work today anyway, go out and search for a round before that, and it won't be too late to change people at that time" Kingsley waved his hand.
At this moment, Lena suddenly said: "I'll go to the study door to guard."
"……no need.
Before the words were over, a familiar voice came from the door of the kitchen, and everyone immediately turned their heads and looked over.
"I have come down."
It was Maca who was talking. He was standing at the door at the moment, looking at the crowd calmly, and even smiled apologetically.
"...Kingsley, Lupin, Tonks, are you going to find Harry? No need to go, Harry has been taken to Hogwarts by Ms. Bones. He is safe now."
"You guy, why"
Sirius was interrupted in the middle of speaking.
"Sorry, I know you are all in a hurry," Maca said. "This time it was my mistake... I contacted Ms. Bones. I wanted to tell you that it was fine, who knows."
Having said that, he shook his head slightly, and continued: "In short, don't worry, everyone, everything is fine here as usual."
To be honest, at the moment when Maca appeared on the first day of the new year, everyone's first reaction was a sigh of relief.Then, when Maca calmly said that Harry was okay, the heart that had been hanging in the air finally fell to the ground.
But after that, all kinds of complaints flooded my heart.
"Maca, why are you staying in the study for so long alone?" Among these people, the most disturbed is Hermione. "And you also cast a magic on the door of the study... Why do you do this? do?"
Maca smiled and shook his head.
"I met Voldemort's ambush at the Ministry of Magic..."
"You're hurt!" Hermione screamed and ran to Maca's side, and she tugged around him in a panic, looking for the non-existent wound. "Where did it hurt? Is it okay? Maca. ...Are you okay?"
Maca hurriedly stretched out his hand to block and said: "It's okay, I'm okay... Hey! Don't touch it!"
Others also reacted at this time. Don't look at Maca's easy words, but when they thought that Maca would actually stay in the study all night before coming out, their mood became heavy.
"Really all right?" Lupin looked at him worriedly.
"It's okay, it's really okay!" Maca raised her head and smiled while holding Hermione's arm. "From this sneak attack, you can see that Voldemort is already quite impatient... He always believed in power before. Supreme, but now I also start to use tactics..."
"Isn't that more difficult to deal with?" Kingsley frowned.
"It can be said, but this is not necessarily a bad thing," Maca explained. "Once you put the hope of breaking the game on the strategy, you will inevitably work out a plan that is as perfect as possible... But in this world, there is no absolute The perfect plan."
Speaking of this, Maca shrugged and said: "I have failed because of this before, and now I am glad that the plan did not go to the end..."
"All in all, if Voldemort continues to use violence to solve all problems, it will be very detrimental to the Order of the Phoenix. The biggest possibility is to lose both!" He finally said, "And now, we just need to find a way to target Voldemort. Just act and respond appropriately..."
"So, tonight, summon the main members of the Order of the Phoenix, we need to reformulate our combat policy!"
...
Ms. Bones...or rather, Miss Bones, she is a very wide witch with a square chin.
Her short gray hair is actually very similar to Mrs. Hooch, the flight class professor, except that she always hides them with a hat.
She often wears a pair of spotless monocles, and the clothes she wears are always meticulous, looking like a cold and noble high-class witch.
She has worked in the Ministry of Magic for many years, and relied on her ability to ascend the post of Director of the Magic Law Enforcement Department. This is indeed not easy for a witch who has lost power in her family.
By the way, during the review of Harry, Miss Burns was sitting in the trial seat.
To be honest, if judging by the first impression, it is actually difficult for anyone to think that she is from Dumbledore's side.Because she was always unsmiling, showing no mercy to people or things, she was a typical Slytherin.
Of course, in fact, she was not a member of the Order of the Phoenix not long ago.
But even so, her fate with the Order of the Phoenix had already been determined from the beginning.
The reason is simple: her brother Edgar Burns was one of the founders of the Order of the Phoenix, and the whole family, including his brother, was killed by Voldemort.
Since then, the Bones family, which was originally a strong family, has plummeted, and it has become a family that is about to completely cut off its inheritance.
"Uh...Ms. Bones, won't you stay?"
At the gate of Hogwarts Castle, Harry stood by the gate hesitantly asked.
"I still have work to finish." Amelia's face was cold as usual, but her tone was soft.
"But... now you are also very dangerous!" Harry said hurriedly, "the attackers last night"
"My job is more important than my own life," Amelia said quietly. "If I hide out of fear, wouldn't it be a chance for Voldemort? I must be there, understand? "
"Oh, but" even though Harry still wanted to stop, he finally nodded. "Ms. Bones, I thank you again for your help. Please be careful too!"
"Of course, I also thank you for your concern, boy."
Amelia reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder, then turned around decisively and walked towards the school gate.
"I don't know how Ron and the others..." Harry said, but he couldn't help but feel a little more solemn when he remembered the experience at the Burns house yesterday.
Under the frenzied attacks of those Death Eaters, Harry deeply felt his own powerlessness, but it also aggravated his belief in working hard.
The warm wind blew across the lawn in front of Hogwarts Castle, making a fine rustle, but it was as peaceful as ever.
