This summer, Willow Springs had a particularly bad time.

Ever since Voldemort was resurrected about a month ago, the Death Eaters have been making a fuss about it—and this fanfiction has been a huge, rewriting of the original. Because Willow Springs, in the original book in the Order of the Phoenix assembly, it seems that someone said that Voldemort didn't want to attract attention to him at this time, because he didn't want Dumbledore to be wary of him in the first place, and he needed a little time to gather those followers.

However, in this world, it seems that Voldemort has had a lot of manpower that he can drive at will since the beginning of his resurrection, and he doesn't know whether it is to investigate what is going on or to test the current abilities and bottom lines of the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore, and has been sending people everywhere to cause trouble, smashing Muggle buildings, such as shops and homes, kidnapping and abusing Muggles on the streets at will- Of course, so far, those villains have only chosen to cause trouble in the Muggle world, probably to see how the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore will respond if the situation does not spread to the wizarding world, and once the situation created in the Muggle world happens, the Ministry of Magic will have to send more wizards to deal with the aftermath, which will greatly affect the energy and manpower of the Ministry of Magic, so that they have no time to seriously investigate and pursue those dark wizards who plan to follow Voldemort.

However, something worse seems to have happened -

The Ministry of Magic was reluctant to intervene.

Or, as long as the Death Eaters' activities were confined to "a few corners" of the Muggle world, which Nymphadora Tonks once angrily said at a meeting, it was a word she occasionally heard from a "big man in the Ministry", the Ministry of Magic felt the need to make a fuss about "this little thing".

Fudge, the current Minister for Magic, does not seem to be willing to admit that Voldemort has been resurrected. He was more concerned with how to eliminate Dumbledore's enormous influence in the wizarding world. A few days ago, under the operation of "some people with hearts", Dumbledore had just lost his position as president of the International Federation of Wizards under a new round of voting, and he was no longer the chief magician of the Wizengamot.

Things are getting worse.

To make matters worse, the Ministry of Magic could ignore the Death Eaters' messing around - "they call them 'over-the-top pranks by some of the radicals who don't like Muggles very much,' and just leave it to the people in the Division for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items—and if it's a little too aggressive, to the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters." The real Moody said gruffly—but Dumbledore couldn't leave it alone.

As a result, the Order of the Phoenix had just been reconvened and understaffed to deal with the events that had occurred in the Muggle world, as sometimes they were even reported to Arthur Weasley's Division for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Objects, and by the time the staff finally arrived on the scene, everything was over.

So all summer, Willow Springs, with the exception of people like Kingsley Shackle, Nymphadora Tonks, who were still Aurors in the Ministry of Magic and couldn't openly participate in the activities of the Order of the Phoenix to deal with the incident, rushed around the scene of the incident as soon as possible, fought the Death Eaters, protected the innocent Muggles, and then tried to get the people from the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters to deal with the aftermath.

Of course, Siris was also one of the Aurors. But over the summer, the rhetoric that flooded the Daily Prophet became more and more unkind to him, just as they wantonly discredited Dumbledore and Harry.

Willow Springs: On one occasion, he even came across a report full of unwarranted speculation and malicious inferences that Siris had been able to regain his innocence with the help of Lily Evans' crucial testimony because he had been passionately pursuing Lily Evans, and that his charming charm and unwarranted emotions had blinded the Hogwarts professor, who had been single until now, and made her willing to "use her superior eloquence, unparalleled guts, and genius fantasy" in the court of Wizengamot Exonerate this glamorous suitor.

Liu Quan: "......"

Siris jumped up from the table.

"This—All this is nonsense for no reason!!......! If you want to rely on this, you can provoke ...... Uh, trust between the members of the Order of the Phoenix?!Hmph, these are the usual tactics of the Ministries of Magic! I'll charge you with a crime, and then make up some random reasons to prove it's true...... I—I'm going to catch this shameful rumor-monger!!" he shouted incoherently, his face flushed with anger, and he looked as if he was annoyed and embarrassed, and his gaze turned slightly on Liu Quan's face and immediately avoided it.

He was booed and yelled at in various frames at 12 Grimmauld Place. In the portrait, which appears to have been permanently glued to the wall and cannot be removed, Cialis's mother, Madame Black, lets out a scream and roar of rage.

"You--ruined son, the disgrace of the family, the evil seed I gave birth to!!," cried the old lady in a high-pitched voice, "you-you have brought this utter mudblood here, and defiled my ancestry's house!! This slut has a low, dark stench of rancid stench from head to toe! There is not the slightest thing worthy of the surname Blake!!You still want to pursue her-"

Willow Springs, who had expected Siris to yell at the magical portrait as louder as before, "That's all nonsense" or "It's all nonsense!" and then pull the curtain that had been pulled back at some point, which must have been done by the blacks, old and hostile house-elf Kleeche. This time, however, Siris was probably so angry that he didn't do it immediately, but suddenly raised his chin and sneered at the portrait, which was already a little old.

"Yes, that's it—what do you think, dear Mother? Isn't it wonderful?" he replied mockingly.

Liu Quan: ......?!

And Mrs. Black in the frame seems to have completely entered a state of hysteria. She roared in a tone that almost burst her eardrums, "No—I won't allow it!!! Let a lowly mudblooded be the mistress of the Black family, and let her filthy feet tread all over this noble and ancient mansion—why don't you die?!"

Willow Springs, even forgot the embarrassment that had been provoked by the argument between Siris and his mother.

And Siris's face was now only terrifying. He glared angrily at the portrait of his mother.

"Okay—— I know you'd like to let me die, but don't get involved with anyone else!!"

His mother pouted and sneered in the frame, her serpent-like gaze swirling around Sirius and Willow Springs beside him.

"Oh, of course I'd like you to die!" she cried out with her eyes narrowed, the features of her face huddled together, and she screamed, "...... Why didn't you die in the first place, but my Regulus?!"

Siris slammed into a suffocation. Willow Quan noticed that his right hand was clenched, as if he would pull out his wand and use some kind of spell to shut up the portrait in the next second.

"Shut up, you terrible old witch, shut up!" he cried out in pain, and the features on his face were distorted, and he looked terrible.

He swung his wand violently at the frame, gritting his teeth as he chanted the spell that would pull the curtain on its own. The curtain was pulled up with a thud as he screamed and curtailed, and his mother's shouting finally stopped.

Siris fell back, his back against the back of his chair, his legs stretched apart, and he threw his head back and exhaled a long breath, as if intending to exhale the anger that had accumulated throughout his lungs.

Liu Quan felt that he didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to put down the "Daily Prophet" as if to cover it up, and took a sip of black tea from the teacup.

...... It's already cold.

Thankfully, before she could figure out what to say, the flames in the fireplace jumped up and turned green.

Dumbledore's face emerged in flames.

"Go to this place now," he seemed to bow his head, and read out an address he wasn't very familiar with, sounding like some street park, "the Death Eaters attacked Muggles there again!, because there aren't many Muggles attacked, and they're still young Muggles, so the Ministry of Magic isn't going to do it this time - you two, stop them!!"

Cyris jerked his feet to the ground, and the legs of his chair creaked against the floor and stepped back. He stood up, the annoyed, gloomy expression on his face gone, and he regained his spirits.

"Let's go, Lily!" he called out to her, trying to feign a calm posture as if nothing had happened, as if he had spoken to his mother just now, that both of them hated that the other would die immediately, and that the confrontation involving her, an outsider, had never happened.

Liu Quan also followed him to his feet, and took out his wand from his pocket.

"Good!" she replied categorically, repeating the address Dumbledore had just given in her mind, and then apparitioned.

When Willow Springs landed at that place, he found that it was indeed a large street park in a quiet residential area, and even a small sports field attached to it.

At this moment, the whole park is in chaos. Perhaps because most of the adults hadn't left work at this time, the park was almost all children from a few years old to a teenager, and there were about a dozen people in a rough count.

There were only three Death Eaters wreaking havoc here—all of whom Willow didn't know, probably newcomers who had been sent to do something bad to join the gang—and they were laughing and torturing the children with all sorts of spells, floating them up and down in the air, and throwing them around. Several children flew out and crashed into a tree and fell to the ground moaning/moaning in pain, and two children were thrown into a pool in the park......

And the sports field is at the other end of the park, and maybe there are more big kids over there...... Liu Quan stood here and couldn't judge the situation over there for the time being.

Siris had arrived very quickly. And, as soon as he saw the scene, he immediately threw himself into battle. As if intending to vent the anger that had just accumulated in his heart at once, he fought more bravely and mercilessly than usual today.
