Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 2009 Reunion of the Old Order of the Phoenix
At Charlotte's notice, everyone came to Aberforth one after another in advance, and sat up around the dining table as usual.
Of course, except for the Weasleys.
"Remus... what happened? What news did Sirius get when he went to Boothbarton?"
Tonks had just sat down after he came over, he couldn't help but glanced at the back of Sirius over the bar, and then asked Lupin quietly.
However, Lupin shook his head.
"I don't know either," he frowned. "I asked as soon as I came over, but he only said to wait for everyone to come... But in short, it's definitely not a good thing!"
This couple with a slightly older age gap has obviously become more and more accustomed to getting along recently, and Tonks hasn't had the impulse at the beginning, and the feeling when the two are together has obviously become much less noticeable.However, perhaps it is precisely because of this plainness that it makes people feel that the relationship between the two of them is getting stronger.
Speaking of this disaster, it may occasionally bring some benefits to people-at least if there are not so many terrible and annoying things that constantly attract the attention of two people, they might not adapt to each other so naturally. The existence of the other party.
Now, hearing Lupin say this, Tonks couldn't help sighing, a trace of sadness flashed across his face.
"Oh... poor Weasley, I hope it's not too bad-they won't be able to stand it."
"Who didn't hope so?"
Lu Ping took a sip of the wine, followed by a light sigh, and then naturally put his arm around Tonks's shoulder and kissed her lightly on the forehead.
"Let me have a sip too."
Tonks reached out to get his glass, but Lupin hurriedly covered it and pressed it.
"Don't drink it...I don't want everyone to enjoy a murloc opera performance anymore, especially in today's situation!"
"Hey!"
Tonks immediately glared at him when she heard it, but after that, she finally gave up her plan to drink.Because in fact, she had been drunk once before, and that scene...Even if she couldn't remember at all afterwards, just listening to Lupin talked about it, she even wanted to die.
As for Lupin’s "murloc opera" metaphor... Obviously, the murloc’s song is ethereal and sweet in the water, but if it’s on the shore, it's almost as screaming as a mandela grass.In addition, Tonks is a natural disguise Magnus. Once drunk, even if his long hair changes color and no wind, he is really not like the murlocs in the water.
So, although Tonks is not completely invincible, but when I think of her drunk appearance...Oh!She should quit drinking completely!
And as the "little" couple whispered to each other, the seats around the dining table were gradually filled-yes, except for the seats of the Weasleys and Sirius who was sitting alone at the bar. .
"Okay, go there too!"
Seeing Charlotte, who even went out to inform everyone to come, came in from the back door and returned to the bar. Aberforth suddenly reached out and patted the table in front of Sirius, then pointed to the dining table.
"Oh, are they all here?"
Sirius's drinking volume is still very good, and while waiting for someone to come over here, he drank a lot of Aberforth's wine alone.However...a good amount of alcohol has its advantages and disadvantages, that is, when you want to get drunk occasionally, it seems that the more you drink, the more sober you are.
"Pattern."
After placing the cup on the bar, he finally got up, turned back and sat down at the table where he always sits.Then, from left to right, he let his gaze sweep across everyone's faces one by one.
"Anyway... I'll talk about one of the biggest reasons for calling you in advance today! So that Arthur and his wife are here in a while, I haven't had time to say it-it will be hard to say then."
At this point, Sirius immediately waved his hand and said:
"Percy is dead."
Before the words fell, there was a dead silence in this slightly dim room, as quiet as if inexplicable buzzing sounded in the ears.
After a moment of silence, a voice finally took the initiative to break the silence.
"Why Percy?"
The one who spoke was Lupin.
To be honest, when he saw Charlotte and heard the other person's reminder not to disturb Arthur and Molly, he had already guessed some possibilities.
Even...maybe because of the many judgments and decisions made with Maca in the past!He seems to have acquired some of Maca's habits-always like to imagine the worst possible beforehand.
Before that, Lu Ping had subconsciously anticipated many possibilities. The death of a certain person or even a few people was one of the conclusions.
But no matter how he thought about it, he never expected Sirius to tell the news of Percy's death.
Speaking of danger, the most dangerous must be those who are on the front line.Although their strength has long been stronger than ordinary people, the crisis they need to face is obviously much more terrifying than others.In addition, Weymouth, where Percy was located, was relatively safe at least until this time.
However, Percy died, and died in front of many people.
"Because there has been a more severe change in the British land than before!" Sirius spread his hands, "Actually, this time I not only met Mrs. Maxim in Boothbarton, I also met. Two young witches. They also seem to be friends of Maca. They have been at Winchester Cathedral for the most recent period of time, and have just returned from the UK until today."
"Who are these two people? We don't know them?" Kingsley on the other side couldn't help asking.
"Actually, I can't say that I don't know him at all." Sirius shrugged and said, "Geoffee-Kingsley, you should know."
"That prophet family in Northern Europe?"
"Yes," Sirius nodded, "it is the Geoffin who was regarded as the head of the group of Nordic black wizards at the time. The group of black wizards can stand by themselves for so many years, and this family of prophets is indispensable. Now... the pair of witch sisters I met in Boothbarton, one of them is the prophet of this generation."
At this point, he paused for a while before turning to:
"I think it's probably for this reason that Maca came to them. The sisters seem to have done a lot to help deal with the army of living corpses in the UK-of course, I just listened to them. , The specific situation may have to be discussed later."
