Chapter 4: Prelude to the Attack

Mrs. Weasley didn't have any particular idea as to why Mr. Weasley had brought his colleagues home from the Ministry of Magic. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info She was sure that Mr. Weasley must be hers and that no one could snatch him from her. She didn't know much about Mr. Weasley's colleagues, or she didn't even think about getting to know them. It's just that when the four of them walked through the door of Weasley's house together, everyone in the Weasley's restaurant had different expressions. If Mr. Weasley and Dawkins came in, no one reacted in any way, and when they saw the two overly young Mr. Weasley's colleagues from the Ministry of Magic behind them, everyone felt that their brains were a little insufficient.

Mr. Weasley didn't say much about his family's reaction, in fact, when he received an order to leave work later in the morning, and two high-ranking figures from the Ministry of Magic approached him for something, he wondered if he had been transferred by himself, because he was overly obsessed with Muggles, and all the pure-blood nobles in the Ministry of Magic did not deal with him very well, which also limited his possibility of promotion and salary increase. Therefore, Mr. Weasley has great expectations for this mission arranged by the department. It's just that when he saw the two big men who wanted to see him in the office of the deputy minister, which was rarely used by the ministry, he had the urge to slap the table. Seeing his family's reaction, he felt that this was normal. In fact, in that office, he was stimulated much more than just the fact that the two little girls were his superiors. When he learned that the two men were special investigators for the Wizengamot and needed to go to his house to find out what was going on with his young son, he didn't know how to express his surprise.

However, no matter how surprised he was, Mr. Weasley still took the two girls to his home as ordered, and although he had some doubts about their insistence on calling Dawkins, he did not express his disagreement. After all, it's not easy to explain to your family when you bring two girls home, so it's a good decision to have someone together.

While the Weasleys were struggling with all sorts of problems, Holly and Erinka took the initiative to say hello to Harry. After all, we went to the Forbidden Forest together in the last year, although we didn't say a few words together, but it's still okay to say hello, and before the work begins, it will be of great help to get closer to each other.

Harry didn't think so, though. He didn't know what to do when he saw Holly at Dursley's house last night, and the aggressive questioning he had been in awe of the days he had spent in a hospital bed at the end of the previous semester. Just after the two of them had finished greeting the Weasley kids they knew, Percy was of course quite excited. Even when he received a hint from Holly that he was omitting most of the steps, he was still the most time-consuming. Mr. Weasley also gave everyone what he knew of Holly's identity as a special investigator appointed by the Wizengamot Standing Council.

At a glance, everyone's reaction was still in Holly's estimation. Harry was not surprised by this identity, he knew part of Holly's identity at the end of last semester, and Percy, as one of the few Gryffindors who acted in full accordance with Holly's etiquette last semester, did not show too much excitement. As for Fred and George, they were glad that the previous night's illegal use of magic had not been dealt with. Ron stared at Holly with some unhappiness, wondering why the lucky one who was recommended wasn't him. For the little girl who hadn't yet entered Hogwarts, she was secretly staring at Harry Potter with a strange possessiveness in her eyes.

Like Holly, everyone glanced at Erinka, but her white eyebrows still made many people unbearable. Perhaps because of the wizards, the dyeing commonly used by Muggles did not work in the slightest.

"Arthur, I think you need to ask these two noble ladies to sit down first. Dawkins reminded.

"Ahhh Arthur picked up his wand and conjured out of thin air three chairs to place on either side of his only long table closest to him. Pushed the other person's position towards the end of the table.

"Alright, Mr. Weasley, if you may, can you make room for us to be quiet and confidential, I don't think we can be disturbed in the rest of our conversation. If you're disturbed, I think you know the rules. Holly said slowly, but at the end of the sentence, his tone suddenly turned cold, which made everyone present shudder.

"I know this, does the kitchen meet your requirements, or do you need someone's bedroom?" Mr. Weasley asked angrily, apparently irritated by Holly's last sentence, which still smacked of menace.

"I look at the shed outside, they don't seem to have eaten yet, so we won't bother them for lunch. ”

"That's fine, you guys rest here now, and I'll clean up there. Mr. Weasley said that he had hidden too many illegal things inside.

"No, we're just borrowing a place, and Mr. Dawkins will help us with this kind of thing, what do you say, Mr. Dawkins?" Erinka vetoed Arthur's offer before Holly was about to nod her head in agreement.

"Oh well. Arthur Weasley had no other excuse but to agree. Now, all he was praying in his heart was that the three of them would not be nosy or too curious.

"Alright, Mr. Potter, would you come with us to the shed now?" Holly asked first, seeing that the plate in front of Harry was already empty.

"Well, I'm always available. Harry replied.

"Would you like Mr. Weasley to take the way?" asked Holly tentatively. Mr. Weasley nodded, and without saying a word, turned to open the door and lead the way.

In the shed, Harry saw the old car in the middle at first glance. Glancing at the two girls walking in front of him, he was sure that these two girls were far from being as harmless as they seemed. Hermione knew this well on the night she went to confinement, but it was only after a series of events such as the attack on Hagrid that Hermione never had the opportunity to talk to the two until the end of the semester. It's just that Ron sneered at it. What about scheming. In the face of his absolute strength that he could "defeat" the mountain monster in the first grade, any junior student was vulnerable.

Although Harry wasn't very impressed by Hermione's arguments, he didn't think much of it either. After all, Holly, who had cultured him in the hospital that day, seemed to him like a black hole, as if everything around her was ethereal, even her face was unclear to Harry.

"Okay, do you two have anything to ask me?" Harry saw that the two girls were looking around for something in the shed, and decided to pre-emptively let the two of them get to the point early, lest he find out too much that might be bad for the Weasleys.

"Well, let's get started. Erinka took out a triangular object, tapped it with her wand, and placed it on a nearby shelf.

"First of all, Mr. Potter, please explain why you are at the Weasley house. "Helly quickly got into working mode.

"Ron invited me here, and as you know, Ron was one of my best friends at Hogwarts. Harry replied.

"So, are you keeping in touch with the outside world?"

"Well, I've been in constant contact with the outside world all my holiday. ”

"Yes, have you received any letter from the Wizengamot? As far as I know, the Wizengamot discovered some suspicious points in your testimony some time ago and wanted to ask you for confirmation, but there was no reply. ”

"Uh... It was Dobby, it was it that intercepted all my letters. ”

"Oh, then how do you say you've always been in touch with the outside world, and how did Weasley keep in touch with you?" asked Holly immediately.

"Well, it was Ron who went straight to my house to find me. Harry wanted to lie that Ron had called, but then it occurred to Ron that he didn't know anything about Muggle communication...

"And what would you explain your illegal use of magic some time ago?" asked Holly, a little playfully.

"It's still Dobby. Harry retorted.

"Who is Dobby?"

"It's a house-elf, a house-elf of the Malfoy family. Harry was clear this time.

"Well, well, that's all, thank you, Mr. Potter, but one final word of caution, please don't tell anyone else about the content of this question. Holly re-emphasized, and tactfully gave the order to evict the guests.

After sending Harry away, Erinka got up and called Dawkins in, this time the mission was actually based on Dawkins's affairs, but after the three of them discussed, they decided to start with Harry's affairs as a breakthrough. Now, the side dishes are ready, and only the main course is missing.
