The Black family's old mansion is full of magic, this is the place where Lawrence has seen the most spells cast outside of Hogwarts, among these spells, Lawrence also found many spells that strengthen the strength of the building, and he is very suspicious that this old mansion in disrepair, if it is one day lifted from magic, will it collapse,

These days, Lawrence sleeps restlessly, he finds that as soon as he closes his eyes, the nightmare will start to dance at him, he tries to use the water of life and death, but such a powerful sleeping potion does not have too good effect,

And the Weasleys did not arrive at Grimmauld Place XII as soon as Remus said, Sirius always came back close to noon, but only took a break and went out again, Lawrence and Remus, who could not command Kreacher, could only take turns in charge of breakfast and dinner, and finally on the fourth night after Lawrence checked in, Sirius returned in the dust,

"Dumbledore's latest order, Remus," Sirius combed his long hair, "Tomorrow night there's a Phoenix Council, and there are quite a few new members to join us."

"Good news," Remus said briskly, glancing at Lawrence and glaring at Sirius warningly, "Molly will bring the children over tomorrow morning."

"Something happened a little later than expected?" Sirius took the meal from Lawrence and interrogated,

"Percy. Weasley," Remus replied, "he became Fudge's office assistant."

"Wow." Sirius whistled,

"Percy seems, um," Remus said cautiously, "broke with the Weasleys."

"That's funny," Sirius smiled sarcastically, "I guess there's going to be a traitor in any family, right?"

"It's not fun, Sirius." Remus frowned, then added, "Don't talk about this in front of Molly and Arthur."

"I mean, he's probably a good fit for Black." Sirius didn't care, but he didn't continue the topic because it wasn't pleasant.

The next morning, Lawrence was woken up by a series of shrill curses, and with some dissatisfaction, he walked out of the room and went downstairs to see what was going on.

"Shameless, scumbag, filthy pure-blood traitor—get out of my ancestors' house—"

"Fred, I told you not to touch things." Mrs. Weasley yelled,

"Oh, Mom, that's George." Fred protested,

"I just want to see what happens." George's voice was full of laughter, and then the cursing stopped abruptly, and Lawrence was on the first floor, where he saw Sirius drawing the curtains, Remus tapping on the portraits around him with his wand, Ron and Ginny snickering at the kitchen door, and Mrs. Weasley noticed Lawrence standing in the stairwell at the end of the hallway,

"Lawrence—" Mrs. Weasley walked quickly over to Lawrence, who was standing in the stairwell,

"Hello, uh...... Mrs. Weasley." Lawrence greeted him unnaturally, but Mrs. Weasley hugged him hard,

"All will be fine," Mrs. Weasley said after letting go of him, "don't rush, let it be."

"Uh, thank you."

"Breakfast, thanks Merlin," Remus shouted, recognizing that Lawrence was uncomfortable, "we can finally change our tastes, Molly."

"Come, boys, take out the luggage in the kitchen and put it down to the stairs, I'll take care of it later," said Mrs. Weasley, "all come to the kitchen, and we'll have breakfast soon."

When he was full of food and drink, Mrs. Weasley let the children rest in the kitchen, and she was humming a song to pack her luggage, George quietly stood at the kitchen door, making sure that his mother had waved her wand to let the luggage go upstairs, and he closed the kitchen door,

"So this is the headquarters of the company?" Fred asked excitedly,

"Order of the Phoenix, this was formed to deal with 'that person', right?" George added that they looked at Sirius and Remus expectantly, expecting them to reveal something,

"Don't be so curious," Remus said with a smile, "we can't tell you anything."

"That always tells us who the members are, right?" Ron said eagerly, and Ginny nodded desperately on the side,

"A lot of people you don't know," Remus responded, "Sirius knows this better than I do, and he's been in contact with people these days."

"We'll find out tonight, no members on mission will be here," Sirius said, and Remus coughed loudly, "Hmm...... Dondedo asked the new members to come here and let the old ones get to know us."

"So......" Before Fred could finish speaking, Mrs. Weasley opened the kitchen door with a bang,

"It's time for you to go upstairs and tidy up your room." Mrs. Weasley said, "I have your name tag on the door."

"Mom is always stopping us from snooping on all sorts of news." Fred looked like he was expected, and the group walked upstairs in the stairwell.

"It's okay, I'm going to pick up Hermione later, right?" Ron said, "We'll always have a chance."

They came to the second floor, where the gas lamp had been lit by Mrs. Weasley.

"Ginny, your room with Hermione." Fred said that Ginny waved at them, and the rest of the boys continued upstairs.

"We're going to find time to get to the Ministry of Magic." George said,

"What do you want to do?" Ron looked confused, "You're going to teach Percy a lesson?"

"A rare and wonderful idea, man," George praised, "if I could—we all wanted to."

"But we're going to get apparition and apparition licenses," Fred said, "and we're adults."

"That's good." Ron muttered, and they went to the third floor, and saw "Harry and Ron" hanging on one of the rooms, so only Lawrence and the twins were left to climb up,

"Percy had a big fight with Dad." George said, "Dad thinks Percy will become Assistant Minister of Magic because Fudge wants him to spy on our house and Dumbledore."

"I've heard about it." Lawrence replied cautiously,

"Bad news always gets out fast, right?" Fred said gloomily,

"In this case, we haven't even confronted 'that person', so we're going to coax inside." George said that they made it to the fourth floor, and Lawrence and the twins returned to their respective rooms.

After lunch, Lawrence locked himself in his room, he was going to make a new water of life and death, he knew it was not a good solution, but it was the fastest way to get him to sleep,

"Lawrence, shall we go in?" Fred's voice came from outside the room, and then the twins probed in,

"Oh, are you busy?" Fred looked at the crucible and frowned,

"Hermione is here, Mom is out on errands again," said George, "and we're going to talk about eavesdropping plans for tonight while she's out of the house."

"We're going to have a meeting in the living room on the second floor now," Fred added, "and you can come over if you're interested."

"There seems to be a lot of weird stuff in that room." George blinked, "It's really interesting - see you if you have a chance."

The twins left, and Lawrence slammed the door with a wave of his wand and continued to concoct potions.

───────

The living room is located on the second floor of Black's old house, there are many strange things here, the curtains make a rustling sound, the writing desk trembles slightly from time to time, and the wall hangs the genealogical tapestry of the Black family, it can be seen that this was once a gorgeous and well-furnished living room, but because no one has used it for a long time, there is dust everywhere, and the corners are covered with cobwebs,

"We were just in Lawrence's room," Fred said as he pushed the door open,

"Seen making potions." George answered,

"What potion?" Hermione asked,

"I think it's the water of life and death." Fred replied, hearing the news, Hermione frowned, and Ginny looked sad,

"Life and death water, what is that for?" Ron's whole face was even more wrinkled, as he found himself the only one in the living room who didn't understand,

"Ron, we were in first year, Snape taught in his first class." Hermione said, "It's a powerful sleeping potion."

"You know, I usually don't remember the old bat's lessons," Ron replied waving his hand, "and why would Lawrence need such a thing?"

"If all you have left is memory of being alone with Percy, I think you'll need water of life and death to get you to sleep." Fred replied gloomily, and Ron shut up,

"We think that trying to get him back to his memory has to be arranged into our daily routine." George said in a brisk tone,

"For now, let's talk about the eavesdropping plan for tonight," Fred beckoned to George, who took out a flesh-colored rope from his bag and handed it to him.

"We developed this thing," Fred explained, as he began to pull the rope out, and Ron, Hermione, and Ginny craned their necks in anticipation of something new they might do, and the rope showed the other end, but there was nothing there,

"Oops, it's wrong," George grinned, "that's the extension wire."

"Looks like it's with me." Fred pulled out something that looked like ears from his pocket, and the three people sitting on the couch were too lazy to be angry with the twins,

"Retractable ears." George solemnly introduced, "Detachable, extended, multi-adapter, which can be used to eavesdrop on their meetings."

"Hurry up and make it, but don't get caught, or you will definitely be confiscated." Fred added,

"We'll be able to use that later." George took the telescopic ear from Fred's hand and put it in the bag, and the two of them quietly opened the door to the living room, looked in, and then waved to the other three, and the group left the living room without a sound, without being noticed by Mrs. Weasley that they were secretly planning something.
