Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 1177 Talking Tonks
"...Yes, it's because the fog is the same everywhere, making it impossible to start, because no one knows where it came from."
Maybe it's because of the similar age difference!Back in Black House, Hermione thought Tonks was the best speaker among the members of the Order of the Phoenix.
So today in Diagon Alley, Hermione chose her as a breakthrough.
On the other hand, Tonks was also very happy that Hermione had come to talk to him. In recent years, because of the chaos, there were only a handful of young people willing to work for the Auror.In the past few years at the Ministry of Magic, she has faced mostly uncle colleagues, and it has been a boring life.
To be honest, if she hadn't loved the Auror career since she was a child, with her straightforward personality, she would have quit her job at the office manager's office long ago.
Yes, the situation in Diagon Alley to perform the mission today is naturally the same as usual. Regardless of the large number of people on the street, she has no one to chat with.She could have had enough of such a boring wait.
"...But to be honest, I heard that Mondungus has passed the investigation of Muggles and found the area where the fog appeared first. It's just because it hasn't been completely determined. At present, only Sirius and I know about it. , Other colleagues don’t know yet."
Hermione listened to her mysteriously, and couldn't help being a little tickled—she was very curious about the fog in London, and those who heard about the Order of the Phoenix seemed to have found the general source. Channel:
"Where is the original area?"
"Oh! I can't say that..." Tonks leaned against the old hanging street lamp in Diagon Alley and waved his hand. "Well, I'm sorry...At least we still need to keep it secret until we officially go there to investigate. of!"
Hermione couldn't help feeling a little disappointed when she heard this.
Now that Percy had probably never been to Diagon Alley, the four of them had lost the only clue that could find each other.And since this is the case, instead of searching around aimlessly, they must have a direction worth looking for, right?
Therefore, when she thought that Percy had left the Burrow also in search of Fred and George, Hermione felt that the source of the mist should be a place to go.
After all, the thinking of the twin brothers cannot be guessed by common sense.Ordinary people are trapped in the fog, and most of them want to escape the fog area at the first time, but Fred and George might try to find the source of the fog.
It's a pity that Hermione guessed wrong this time, because she forgot that the two brothers were also carrying their wives!
Seeing Tonks refused to say, Hermione was a little unwilling.Seeing her pondering for a moment, she stretched out her arm to hook the other's arm, and whispered like a good sister.
"But, Tonks... dear Tonks, you have such a horrible appetite! After you say that, don't I want to know more?"
"Ok--"
Listening to Hermione's complaint, Tonks immediately scratched her hair with a look of embarrassment. Her hair color seemed to gradually turn into a messy pink and purple because of the hesitation in her heart.
"Tonks!"
Seeing this, Hermione secretly said that as long as she continued to work harder, it would be done.
"Tonks, look!" She quickly said, "Tell me what else do you have to worry about? Would I go and talk to others casually? Tonks, just tell me!"
As she was talking, her thoughts moved, and she suddenly teased:
"Let's do it! I heard that you and Lupin are getting married too? Now, if you can satisfy my curiosity, I will give you the most special and commemorative gift at your wedding then! Guarantee! Surprised everyone!"
"Oh, what are you talking about—"
Tonks, a girl who has always been carefree, was rarely shy, but after pursing her lips, she turned her head and asked in a low voice:
"What is the'most memorable' gift?"
"Oh! That can't be said..." Hermione imitated her voice just now, and deliberately dragged it out, "Well, at least until your wedding is held, you still need to keep it secret!"
"Hey!"
Tonks pretended to be angry and gave Hermione a little softly, and then reached out his hand to poke the soft flesh of the opponent's waist, causing Hermione to chuckle.
Not long after, the two girls, the older and the younger, were like small children, and they tickled each other.That messy appearance attracted the attention of many Aurors around.
"What are they doing? Didn't Hermione ask about the situation outside? Why is this playing with Tonks?"
Ron looked in the direction of Hermione and Tonks with a weird look, and couldn't help but mutter softly.Ginny on the side heard the words and immediately glanced at him:
"Ron, I think you must have few friends!"
"Who said it!" Ron stared, "I have many friends! Look, it's like Harry, Neville, Maca, Dean, Simon..."
"Except for Maca, are the others in the same dormitory with you, right?" Ginny curled her lips and said, "What's more, look at your so-called "friends", there is not even a girl- Do you know? I am now very worried about whether you can find me a sister-in-law in the future! Well, my mother thinks so too—"
When talking about her mother, Ginny couldn't help but stopped, and a worried look appeared on her face.
As Sirius mentioned earlier, London now seems very dangerous.Even if she knew that her parents were all guarding with the Auror, thinking about the disaster in London last time, she felt that it was still not enough to make herself feel at ease.
And when she thought of Percy again...oh, she didn't even dare to think about it anymore.
"Ginny?"
Standing not far away, Luna, who was just looking at the playful smile of Hermione and Tonks, suddenly walked over.She obviously felt the anxiety in Ginny's heart very keenly, and then immediately reached out and put her arm around the other's shoulder.
"Don't worry, I have a hunch, we will find everyone soon!"
"'Premonition'?" Ginny heard her say so, and couldn't help turning around and quickly said, "Are you finally able to make a prediction? Luna, I always thought you might become a prophet-your kind of erratic The uncertain temperament is really the same as the prophets mentioned in the story book!"
"Um... I can't predict," Luna tilted her head and shook her head. "But... a prophet? If I can really become a prophet, that would be great! After losing things, I will be able to find them out soon!"
"No, the prophet can know in advance that he will lose something, so you don't have to wait to find it after you lose it."
Ginny watched Luna start imagining herself as a prophet, and she couldn't help but whispered, but Luna, who was immersed in her imagination, obviously didn't hear it.
"Um... well! It seems that you may not be a prophet yet."
As she was talking, she suddenly saw Hermione's figure inadvertently—she seemed to have finished talking with Tonks and was about to come back here.
"Hermione," Ginny hurried forward and greeted each other, "How about?"
"Okay."
Hermione nodded slightly, and then walked with Ginny to Ron and Luna.
"Anyway, let's go ahead and talk about it."
After she took Ginny to Luna who was still thinking about it alone, she greeted Ron, lowered her voice and said calmly:
"I got some information from Tonks, some related to the dark wizard in the mist, and some related to the mist itself. It's a pity, although I still tried it, to see if she told us that we were leaving Diagon Alley. Views...but she obviously also feels that we should stay here."
Speaking of this, Hermione spread her hands:
"So, we can't get her help. If you want to go out, there are only two possibilities-one is to leave secretly after being invisible, and the other is of course to convince Sirius."
"Is there no third?" Ron asked while thinking.
Hermione nodded when she heard the words.
"Yes!" She frowned. "When the dark wizard raided Diagon Alley again, we can help the Aurors to repel them, and then get out by the way... But to be honest, I would rather this possibility is zero."
"Oh! Of course," Ron grinned, "This kind of terrible battle can still be one less!"
"Yes," Hermione said, "So, it seems that we can only choose one of two possibilities and try first... But obviously, if we want to persuade Sirius to let us go, we have to let him not distribute this book. There are not many manpower for us, this is really difficult!"
After thinking for a while, she shook her head suddenly, and then said:
"Leave this aside, let me talk about some of the things I heard from Tonks-first of all, the dark wizards outside. Those guys are mostly Helbo's men. They are attacking others in the fog of London. But I don’t know why, they seem to only target wizards, but they ignore ordinary Muggles..."
After spending a little time, Hermione spoke out the information she had gotten out of her head, and by the way explained how they coped after leaving Diagon Alley.
There are only four of them now, even if they can use the magic slate to exert a strong power, but those black wizards have heard that there are many, it is best to avoid them.
They came out today to find someone, not to fight the dangerous dark wizards.
At the end, she recalled Tonks' narrative while saying to Ron and others:
"Because we don't know where to find Percy right now, so I think it's better to go to the source of the fog first, after all Fred and George may appear there. And the source of the fog..."
"...It is said to be in a place called the'black market'." ()
