Chapter 1607: Aven's Summer Vacation
Aven was combing through all the information he could find about Gringotts, where he was going to take the Gold Cup after Bill and Fleur's wedding.
Hermione sat on the bed not far from him, flipping through the nearest newspaper.
This summer, the two families spent it together.
They were currently in an old English manor house in Derbyshire, where Aven, Hermione, and their parents had been for almost the entire holiday.
This is Aven's own estate and is located within the famous Peak District National Park.
It is said that it was once the residence of a Muggle duke in history, and the decoration is very magnificent, and it still retains the architectural style of the sixteenth century, and there are many items from that era, which Ewen has examined, and there is no magic atmosphere.
Like all the other Muggle manors scattered throughout the Peak District National Park, it was low-key and luxurious, far from the wizarding world, and no wizard would be interested in visiting it except for the occasional Muggle visitor who would be interested in visiting.
It's perfect as a temporary hideaway and vacation destination.
With the help of the Order of the Phoenix, Evan and Hermione picked up their parents almost as soon as they got home.
Evan knew that he had a big goal, especially after he showed the double snake staff in front of so many people, Voldemort must have known about it.
He wouldn't be stupid enough to stay at home and wait for a bunch of Death Eaters to come to his door.
The Masons had always wanted to take Evan on vacation, and this time, Evan agreed to their request and invited Hermione and Granger.
Evan has rarely stayed at home during the holidays in recent years, and in order not to leave regrets, he wants to spend time with his parents.
Perhaps, this may be the last summer vacation.
Overall, the holiday was enjoyable.
At the beginning of the holidays, Evan invited Elaine, Ron, Ginny and Gabrielle to come along, and the six of them visited almost the entire Peak District National Park.
Then, just the other day, everyone except Evan and Hermione returned to the Burrow to prepare for the wedding of Harry and Bill and Fleur, as well as to make room for Evan and Hermione to say goodbye to their parents.
In a few days, Evan was ready to cast spells on them as planned.
His parents were going to China, where they had investments, and Hermione's parents were going to Australia......
This is to keep them safe, under the influence of magic, they will not think of Evan and Hermione, and they will not be so painful if something happens to the two of them.
This arrangement sounds inexplicably sad, but it is a last resort. Muggles could not integrate into the wizarding world like wizards, and Evan and Hermione's parents could not join the Order of the Phoenix like the Weasleys, and had to leave the country temporarily.
Under the shadow of imminent war, many people are fleeing the UK.
Evan wished he could stop the mad Voldemort from summoning the gods, otherwise people wouldn't have fled the world like the ancient warlocks did thousands of years ago......
"When are we going to pick up Harry?" asked Hermione suddenly.
"Just next week, the day Harry came of age, the magic his mother had left in his blood would be dead. Evan said, looking up at Hermione.
There are many, many things that can be done as an adult, and Hermione is already an adult, but Evan still needs to wait for more than half a year.
According to Sirius and Moody's plan, they were to pick up Harry on his birthday and escort him to the Burrow, where there would be a fierce battle.
Shortly after the holiday began, after the Ministry of Magic had sentenced all the Death Eaters who had broken into Hogwarts that night, Azkaban fell again and all the Death Eaters who had been locked up were rescued.
The laws of the Ministry of Magic are too merciful for these vicious Death Eaters.
Rufus Scrimgeour had no choice, he wanted to authorize the Aurors to take extreme measures against the Death Eaters, but until now, this decree has not passed.
In a sense, the Ministry of Magic has fallen.
No one knows how many infiltrated Death Eaters, Imperius-controlled officials, and wizards who tend to support Voldemort in there, and it's not worth believing at all.
The Order of the Phoenix is on its own, and Sirius has repeatedly told them that the premise is to protect themselves, and if necessary, they can use extraordinary magic......
The best assumption at the moment is that Voldemort and the Death Eaters don't know when Harry is transferred, and the Order of the Phoenix is spreading false news in the hope of fooling them, but Evan knows that this is unlikely, with Snape there, Harry's transfer plan is essentially left behind by Dumbledore before he left, so it is impossible for them not to know.
What we need to do now is to prepare for battle.
However, Evan didn't want to make Hermione too nervous, because she was about to be separated from her parents in the past few days, her mood has not been high, Evan did not continue to discuss this topic, he asked, "Is there any new news in the newspaper?"
"Well, Muggle Studies professor Kerry Dei Bubbaji has resigned, isn't it?" Hermione said, flipping the thick newspaper to one of the pages, "I remember she wrote an article the other day denouncing ...... The Dark Lord's pure-blood theory, saying that she was going to stay at Hogwarts, suddenly resigned!"
She didn't dare to mention Voldemort's name, because Evan could be sure that Voldemort had cast a spell on his name, and if he did, he would sense it.
He'd used this spell before, and now it worked again.
Suddenly disappearing, that's not good news.
Evan didn't want to continue the discussion on this matter, the disappearance was too sensitive, especially if it happened to someone they once knew, Evan hadn't taken Bubaji's class, but no matter what, the poor professor wouldn't have ended well, she didn't realize the essence of the matter.
The current situation is not a theoretical dispute, and it is not very smart to openly say that he likes Muggles, opposes Voldemort, and does not do anything to protect himself......
"Anything else?" said Evan, muffled, trying to avoid death.
"No, the Ministry of Magic is still the same, telling everyone that it's safe at the moment, but you can't even find a shadow of a Death Eater. Hermione said, "The rest of the articles are all about Dumbledore, and people are missing him, here's an obituary written by his good friend Ephias Dorjee, I think it's very well written, do you need me to read it to you?"
Evan nodded, although missing Dumbledore was not a pleasant topic, but at least it could distract Hermione, and they both knew that Dumbledore was not dead, so it was not as sad as the others......
