Chapter 45: Charlie
The nightingale slowly softened, and in the dark corner, a black cloak slowly floated out. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The black shadow came to the fallen Penelope, checked it, confirmed that Penelope had fainted, and slowly floated Penelope with his wand, trying to leave, but found that he could no longer apparition.
"Petrify!" A red light suddenly shot out from another part of the street, and the black cloak seemed to be prepared, waving his wand, and an armor spell blocked the red light.
Two wizards dressed in plain dark red wizard robes stepped out of the darkness, their wands both pointing at the black cloak.
"Put her down!" one of the balding middle-aged wizards whispered. The night was dark, and the whole of Hogsmeade was quiet, and under the starlight, the black cloak stopped in place, like a monster.
"Did you hear that, I told you to put him down!" the middle-aged wizard raised his voice.
"Broken bones!" red light shot straight from the black cloak, and the two wizards jumped away in an instant.
"Spell silence!" the two wizards staggered and rushed towards the black cloak, casting the spell continuously.
The black cloak turned into a cloud of black mist, and quickly wanted to leave, but the surroundings seemed to be forbidden to apparition! The black cloak seemed to think that the two wizards could not hurt themselves, and moved quickly around Penelope, like bats that had been hunting.
"Broken bones!"
"Except for your weapons!"
"Slash the armor!" The red light jumped back and forth between the three of them, and until now they had not hit each other, the black cloak was strong, and there was no difficulty in 1 against 2.
The two Scarlet wizards are agile and don't look like ordinary wizards. After a few rounds, finding that the attack did not work, the two dark red glanced at each other, their faces were serious, and suddenly pointed their wands at each other:
"The magic is boiling!"
"Give it your full attention!"
The two of them unleashed their enhanced magic on each other, and the red magic lingered like flames on their bodies, and in the darkness they resembled two red-clad soul seductors.
After blessing each other, the two moved faster, and several spells shot at the black mist at a rapid speed, and one of the younger-looking wizards shouted, "Look at my broken bones!"
This time, the black cloak seemed to have finally had scruples, and quickly floated into the alley. The strengthened Powder Bone Shattering spell hit the wall directly, and with a muffled thud, a large hole was punched into the wall. The house seemed to be empty, and there were no wizards shouting.
Taking advantage of the retreat of the black cloak, the bald wizard hurried to Penelo's side, and while watching around vigilantly, he confirmed that Penelo, who was lying on the ground, had just fallen asleep.
"Miguel, how's she doing?" asked the younger wizard and the balding middle-aged wizard back to back.
"No problem, it just looks like I've passed out. The bald wizard replied in a low voice.
"Why did you say they sent us to protect this little girl?" the young wizard muttered in a disgruntled whisper.
"Shut up, Charlie, now is not the time to say this, be careful!" The bald wizard did not hesitate to release the armor protection, and the two red lights were blocked by the armor charm, but the impact of the huge magic explosion blew the two apart.
Two clouds of black mist rushed out of the alley and rushed towards Penelope on the ground, and he was about to succeed.
"Rock Burst!" A rock pillar instantly rose from the ground, and the two black mist couldn't dodge, and directly hit the rock pillar, making a dull thumping sound.
The black mist that had been knocked back had turned into two stumbling wizards, their hoods had been lifted, and their silver masks shone in the darkness, and after the two of them stood still, they hurriedly looked towards the place where the spell had been cast.
"Dumbledore!" the tall figure of the gray-haired and bearded barkeeper appeared in the street, pointing his wand at the two wizards.
"Get out, this is not the place for you to do whatever you want!" Aberforth whispered to the two silver-masked Death Eaters.
"Aberforth, who do you think you are, I think it's you who should get out, no matter how nosy, watch out for that little bar of yours. One of the tall Death Eaters replied in a hoarse voice.
"This is Hogsmeade, not London, and you don't deserve to go wild here. Aberforth stood in the middle of the street and whispered to the two.
"Well, Aberforth, it's none of your business, nor your brother's business, you'd better get acquainted, or we'll visit the Hog's Head Bar later." The other, slightly taller Death Eater snorted coldly and threatened.
"You two idiots, do you really think I'm going to be afraid of you Death Eaters who only hide your heads and tails, I, Charlie, want to see what you are capable of today. The two wizards who had been blown away turned out from behind the earthen wall, and the bald wizard had already lifted the unconscious Penelope.
"Charlie, that bloodthirsty bounty hunter really has some skills. The two Death Eaters seemed to notice that something was wrong, and retreated slightly into the dark alley.
"Haha! Yes, it's me, Death Eater hunter, Charlie Habton!When you killed my parents, I swore that I would kill all the Death Eaters to avenge their deaths!" Charlie laughed maniacally as he rushed at the two Death Eaters.
The two Death Eaters seemed to be startled by Charlie's sudden madness, and hurriedly turned into a black mist to escape.
Wizards fight, they really can't be distracted. The Death Eaters originally had a backup move, but Charlie suddenly broke out and fought with all his might, and the tall wizard was actually directly hit by Charlie's bone-shattering spell. The black mist was directly nailed to the wall, turning into a tall wizard, and the strong calves had been blown up and blurred with flesh and blood!
Another Death Eater was anxious to see his companion left behind, and wanted to go back to the rescue, when another green light shot out from the alley, and Charlie hurriedly retreated, casting an armor charm.
"Avada Suo Curse!" a flash of green light hit the target in an instant. Aberforth was too far away, and Miguel was still holding the unconscious Penelope!
"What! shit!" Only a flash of green light could be seen in the darkness, and Charlie took a step back, then stood still. Miguel hurriedly put down Penelope and ran towards Charlie.
"Don't, Miguel, protect that girl, I'm fine!" Charlie still pointed at the dark alley with his wand raised, not daring to relax in the slightest. The silver mask of the Death Eater shone through the green light, and there was a Death Eater hiding in the alley, but the strange thing was: he executed his companion with a Death Requir.
"Divine Guard!" a goat came running into the dark alley, and the Death Eaters who were ambushed in the alley disappeared in a flash, turning into black smoke and disappearing with their companions.
Aberforth strode over to Penelope, picked the girl up from the ground, and the moon-white goat scurried back and forth in the alley, returning to him.
"Go to Hogwarts and tell Albus about it. Aberforth whispered to his patronus.
The milky goat nodded and disappeared into space.
"Why are you two here today?" Aberforth asked, looking at Charlie and Miguel.
"Aberforth, we're not your enemies, we're just doing what we have to do. Miguel remained vigilant, Charles Haberton replied.
"You're not an Auror, Charlie, I'll tell you again, you're looking for death!" Aberforth roared in a low voice.
"Thank you for your concern, Daddy Aberforth, I know what I'm doing. Charlie replied with a hippie smile.
A scorching stream of air exploded directly from a point in space, and a flame appeared directly into the world.
The White Wizard and his phoenix suddenly appeared directly in front of everyone. The White Wizard immediately noticed Penelope, whom Aberforth was holding, and hurriedly walked over to examine it carefully.
Charlie and Miguel both pointed their wands at the most powerful wizard in Britain at this time, and when they found out that it was Headmaster Dumbledore, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Albus, how do you feel that your student is now joining the fight?" the kind-hearted bar owner asked his brother in a sarcastic tone.
The great headmaster didn't seem to feel offended, but examined Penelope carefully, and then said to Phoenix, "Go and bring in Professor Flitvy, and say that he has another student who needs his care." Inform all the deans and check on all the students in the school to see if there are any who are not at the castle. ”
The phoenix chirped and rushed into the sky like a meteor.
"Aberforth, thank you for protecting my students for me!" the headmaster didn't confront his brother, but still stared at Penelope.
"Headmaster, that's not right, we've been very helpful. Charlie grinned and walked over to Headmaster Dumbledore.
"Little Charlie, why are you here? And Miguel, aren't you still hunting down dark wizards in France? Well, I see, it's too much!" Dumbledore's sharp gaze swept over the two, and his voice deepened.
"Your Excellency the Chief Magician of the Wizengamot, things are not what you think, this time we are not here for the bounty, we have a higher goal. Miguel bowed slightly and said calmly.
"Yes, Headmaster, we didn't take a penny this time, risking our lives to protect this girl. Charlie said to Dumbledore with a smile.
Dumbledore looked at the two of them suspiciously, and said to young Charlie, "Charlie, you shouldn't have dropped out of school in the first place!
"Headmaster, I'm not dropping out, I'm just taking a leave of absence, you see, you're still my headmaster, I'm still a brave Hufflepuff who is about to graduate. Charlie laughed.
"Don't give me this!I've heard them talk about what happened after you left Hogwarts, you deadly brat, what's the use of killing as many Death Eaters!How sad your parents will be if something happens to you, have you thought about it!" Dumbledore glared at Charlie.
"Oh, Headmaster, I'm afraid they'll never get a chance to feel sorry for me again," Charlie whispered, and Miguel put his arm around his shoulder and slapped him twice.
"Albus, now is not the time to catch up, and I think if you don't do anything about it now, Hogsmeade will soon be torn down. Aberforth said coldly to his brother.
Headmaster Dumbledore still didn't look at his brother, but at the Death Eater who had collapsed against the wall, the Curse had taken his soul, leaving only a cold shell, the silver mask had fallen to the ground, revealing a familiar and unfamiliar face.
"You're right, Hogsmeade can't be destroyed. Headmaster Dumbledore said in a low and resolute voice.
Xie An felt that the pillow seemed to be burning, and hurriedly took out an ugly doll doll from under the pillow, this ugly doll doll was simply a desecration of the puppet art, without any beauty at all, the doll grinned, the skin was sallow, full of wrinkles, and was smiling silently at Xie An at this time.
When he was ordered by the prefect to return to the dormitory, Xie An already knew that something was wrong. Penelope did not come back, there were many purposes for this temptation, among which the part about Penelope was the least dangerous, Aberforth could not have any hostility towards Penelope, and the Earl also specially arranged for two adult wizards to secretly protect him.
Xie An got up from the bed, and the Ravenclaw in the dormitory had not yet slept, one person was reading a book, and the other two were playing a game, a game in which black and white chess pieces were placed on 361 points.
"Andrew, do you want to play backgammon for a while? I'm sure I'll be able to beat you this time. Michael asked happily as he saw Andrew Lee get out of bed.
"No, I want to go to the lounge to breathe, it's a bit too much for dinner. Xie An changed out of his pajamas, put on his shoes, and hurried out of the dormitory.
"Did Andrew have dinner today? I didn't see him in the auditorium. Michael asked Terry, confused.
Terry looked down at the dense black and white on the chessboard, biting his fingers and shaking his head.
Xie An waved the poplar staff gently, and the white smoke slowly erupted from the wand, and when Xie An walked to the lounge, the white smoke had completely enveloped him, and the lounge was empty, Xie An opened the door, and the statue guarding the door saw the white mist floating out of the Ravenclaw lounge strangely, and muttered suspiciously.
All Hogwarts students were asked to stay in their dormitories, with prefects and school staff patrolling the hallways.
"It looks like there are no students who haven't come back yet, except for Penelo Criwatt. Snape took a list and tapped it lightly with his wand.
"Not necessarily, maybe some of the students have mastered the clever anti-targeting spell, so this little list won't be of much use. Gilderoy Lockhart wore a gorgeous dark gold wizard's robe, his wand glowing softly, and watched curiously at Severus Snape's magical roll call.
Snape sneered, and said in his characteristic sarcastic tone, "Professor Lockhart, your erudition and your reputation are worthy of the truth. The student can indeed master the anti-location spell, but if the wizard casting the location spell is clever enough, then any clue will reveal his location. The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor seemed to have completely defended himself against the Potions Professor's sarcastic attack, and continued to look at the magical roll call with curiosity without care.
Snape used his wand to point the names of the Weasley brothers on the list, and the corresponding text appeared after their names: Castle Logistics, talking to the vegetable farmer who was delivering food, and then the name of Harry Potter, which was followed by the corresponding note: dormitory, talking to Ron Weasley, then becoming: dormitory, talking to Neville Longbottom, then changing to dormitory, talking to Ron Weasley, and finally glancing at Andrew Lee, which was the same as the first inspection: dormitory, playing wizarding chess with Michael Corner。
Andrew Lee dodged a prefect, floated gently through the corridor, to an uninhabited corner of the castle, took out the ugly doll, lightly tapped it with a straight poplar staff, the doll smiled even more ugly, and then spoke with a cracked mouth: "Three Death Eaters were killed, one of us was injured, Dumbledore applied to the Ministry of Magic for the Aurors' protection of Hogsmeade Village!"
