Chapter Twenty-Three: Escorts
When it comes to Harry Potter, the people of the Order of the Phoenix are still moving quite fast......
Well, at least faster than the Ministry of Magic hunted down Death Eaters, and faster than the Dark Lord now punishes betrayers...... The Dark Lord was furious after learning from Snape that Karkaroff had disappeared after the Triwizarding Tournament and that Barty Crouch Jr. had disappeared for no apparent reason, at least, being abandoned by the Dark Lord himself and betraying the Dark Lord, although in essence there was not much difference, but for the arrogant Dark Lord, the latter was completely unacceptable. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info However, because he has been away for too long, the Dark Lord does not dare to operate in the wizarding world openly, at least until Lucius Malfoy completely controls all aspects of the Ministry of Magic, the Dark Lord is not prepared to appear in public......
Not much to say, on the side of the Order of the Phoenix, the mission to protect Harry Potter is still quite popular...... It's just that, even if the stakes are high, there are many people willing to participate, and Dumbledore, or Moody, should say Moody, did not allow everyone who signed up to participate.
If everyone is allowed to do so, it is estimated that all the hands of Dumbledore hidden in all corners of the wizarding world will probably be exposed...... In the same way, there is no way to talk about the secrecy of the operation...... No one can guarantee that these partners, who have not fought side by side for more than ten years, will not expose everyone or leak certain things.
Choices have come and gone, and Moody's has only finalized eight or nine suitable candidates...... As for Heli, it is not included in it for the time being...... However, Dumbledore also hoped that Moody would get Holly into the operation. A girl who can cause a lot of trouble for herself can definitely add a great safety factor to this operation, but ...... I couldn't tell Moody and the other members of the Order of the Phoenix directly......
A leader who cannot have a certain amount of trust in his subordinates will never be supported by his subordinates, and Dumbledore is also worried about the composition of his subordinates. They are all old friends, but they can't criticize as casually as they did back then.
Holly finally got the news from Siris Black, of course, with Dumbledore's acquiescence and indulgence. Every move of the house under the protection of the Curse of Loyalty is under the control of Dumbledore, the secret man.
Wait until it's time to act......
Holly didn't bring her own broomstick, and the laws of space, most of the time, seemed to be better used than magic, especially in places where Muggles gathered.
Without the constraints of the Ministry of Magic's bunch of rules and regulations, you only need to ensure that you will not use the laws of space to deal with ordinary people, at least the scope of application is broad enough.
Holly showed up at 4 Privet Road early to watch the Dursleys being taken away by the prize of the Best of England Lawn Grand Prix, and driving stupidly to a farther place, Holly had a slight understanding of the methods of the Order of the Phoenix...... It was indeed a more effective method, but wizards still looked at Muggles in a top-down way, and they never considered how much trouble their own methods of transferring people would cause Muggles' lives......
At the very least, ordinary people probably won't have much of a reaction, but it's on the Dursleys...... It's hard to say that Vernon won't take the opportunity to make big news.
However, this is nothing for Moody's and his party, and even if it weren't for Harry Potter, it is estimated that Moody would never have appeared in this Muggle ghetto in London for the rest of his life.
Looking down from the air, the group of disheveled wizards below vigilantly looked around, each with a wand in their hands, cautiously looking around, on the one hand, they were afraid that they would be exposed to Muggles, and on the other hand, they had to put themselves in a relatively open place, ensuring that if there was an attack, they would be able to fight back or divert in the shortest possible time......
Because of the Magic Eye, Moody could feel the presence of Heli above his head, but he was ...... Others don't notice it.
Because Holly didn't do anything, Moody's didn't stop his plan...... Even if he could feel the unknown factors from above, he didn't dare to disrupt Dumbledore's entire plan because of this little unrest......
Time is running out for Harry Potter's hearing......
Holly didn't rush down to participate in the actions of a group of people, but just stood in the air, watching the people below like a play, according to the plan they had made before, as if the machine was running closely......
It took a long time for Harry Potter to appear on the lawn of the Dursley's house surrounded by everyone, and with a disillusionment spell, Harry's figure instantly blended into the environment, at least with the naked eye, the existence of Harry's body could not be observed. However, it is not possible to perfectly control the magic fluctuations hidden in the body, and it still can't escape the observation and perception of those who have a heart.
Distant signals flew into the sky, and a group of wizards flew into the sky one by one on broomsticks......
With Moody's command in the back, the group continued to do all kinds of difficult flight maneuvers in the air, avoiding random Muggles and various Muggle settlements.
Holly watched a group of people flying in the air from a high vantage point, but only as a pastime or to pass the time.
Unlike the people flying below, who seemed to be about to be frozen, and Holly, who had applied various thermal insulation charms to his clothes early, only saw a dozen or so people, and after tossing in the air for a long time, he finally landed in Grimmauld Place.
For this operation, Dumbledore even lent Moody all the lights out, and quietly landed behind everyone, and Holly sat directly on the chair behind the group of people, watching the actions of the group of people in front of him.
Moody noticed the appearance of Holly behind him through the magic eye, but he ...... In the absence of Holly's first move, it was important to move Harry Potter to the safest position first, at least Moody's thought.
Of course, there are other reasons to deal with later.
Seeing the mermaids in front of him rushing in, Holly calmly continued to sit in the chair, as if waiting for something.
After a long while, and after estimating that the savior had probably settled down, Holly got up again and walked towards the middle of houses 11 and 13.
The door reopened as before, and Holly walked in quietly with his wand, and behind him, the door closed automatically, and House 12 disappeared again between No. 11 and No. 13......
