Chapter 2042: The Blois Family's Retreat

Whatever the reason, it is a good thing that Blois's actions can become positive. After all, Percy's desire was to take all of Devon back under control, and it was obviously not easy to do that.

However, in general, since the Burrow's side has basically gathered its own highest combat power except for Maca, and everyone is more inclined to fight steadily. So far, nothing has been difficult to deal with, and everything is moving in the direction expected.

The next morning, Blois got up early in the morning and went out with Safina without saying a word.

However, at the same time, on the side of the refuge community in the rear, Lupin and the others were in trouble. Needless to say, it's because of the letter on the Change Account.

……

"Sirius, are you leaving for the sea?"

Originally, Sirius still wanted to quietly leave to go out to run errands without alarming everyone as before. But who knew that early that morning, when he habitually transformed into an Animagus form, and was about to take advantage of the night before dawn to run out of the community silently, he was blocked at the back door.

In the already dim moonlight, Sirius took on human form again, and then glanced disapprovingly at the figure leaning against the wall.

"Remus, it's not a full moon today, don't you sleep at night?"

If anyone knows Sirius best these days, it's Lupin. The two have been friends for so many years, and they know each other well, and they are also very clear about each other's temperament.

Just as Lupin had already guessed that Sirius would go out early in the morning, Sirius knew as soon as he saw Lupin that this guy must have been here for a while.

"It's been a long time since I became a professor at Hogwarts, and I haven't been a werewolf again." Lupin looked at the crescent moon in the western sky, sighed slightly, and then turned his head and said, "Also, answer my question first-are you going to the sea now?" ”

"Or else? Where else can I go? Sirius pursed his lips and looked around again, before beckoning to Lupin, "Come in!" Don't talk here. ”

Before he could finish speaking, he turned and returned to the house, and Lupin saw this, and immediately followed. Soon, the back door was closed again.

A short time later, in the dark living room, Sirius walked over and sat down on the sofa.

"I won't light the lights, you can say anything directly, while the sky is still bright."

Since neither of them hated the dark, or rather, they were used to dark places, Lupin clearly didn't care much about it. Then he walked over and sat down on a chair beside him.

"Don't worry," he said, shaking his head, "you can't leave today...... Something big is happening out there again. So...... Perhaps Professor McGonagall had made the right decision to return to mainland this time. ”

"Something happened again?" When Sirius heard this, he frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

"Denmark is finished."

You don't know what tone Lupin himself used to say this. Maybe it's heavy, maybe it's helpless, or maybe it's ...... It may be calm.

No matter how bad things are, as long as you've been through a similar situation in its entirety, when it happens again, all you will feel is powerlessness.

After a brief pause, he went on to explain:

"The disaster, which was originally confined to the UK, has begun to spread...... The news was sent to the house of Blois by Madame Maxime, and then to me overnight - most of the members and assets of the Blois family in France may begin to move at any time, and they have decided to take with them the people of our refuge community. ”

With that, he pulled out a piece of letter and placed it in Sirius' hand.

"People take us seriously, and of course we can't be uncooperative. What's more, most of us refugees don't have much ability to protect ourselves, and that's why we came here to take refuge in the first place, isn't it? ”

Listening to Lupin's words, Sirius picked up the letter and read it roughly through the faint moonlight shining through the window.

Immediately after that, he nodded very seriously and said:

"Inside the Blois house...... It seems that he is not optimistic about the rebellion alliance between Hermione and Lady Maxime! ”

The Blois family is a big family, and in addition to Willy's father, who is the head of the family, there is naturally a family council. In addition to the general direction of the family's development, many small matters will be decided by the members of the family council, unless the head of the family himself speaks out.

There are so many trivial matters in a big family, and Blois can't handle it alone. In the vast majority of cases, all he does is put a mark on the parliamentary resolution.

Now that Mr. Blois himself has gone to the Burrow, it is only the members of the House of Blois who can make the decision.

As for the old butler...... In the final analysis, he is just a housekeeper, and according to the rules, the most he can do is to make suggestions.

Of course, in the Blois family today, his words would still work - at least, Sirius seemed to think so.

"That is to say," he said, flicking the letter in his hand, "Steward Blois...... Even the head of the Blois family may already be preparing to give up on following up on this rebellion. ”

"yes!" When Lupin heard this, he couldn't help but nod, "Should I say 'lucky'?" Fortunately, the Blois family has always been quiet in their work, and they still trust and take care of us...... Otherwise, burdensomeness like ours will definitely be abandoned. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand again.

"Of course, I'm not here to discuss this with you this time - I mean to say that since Denmark, which is separated from Britain by the North Sea, has an accident, it is very likely that the Change at sea will no longer be safe. Didn't we speculate that something might have happened to Professor McGonagall? Now it seems that the possibility is indeed very high. ”

"Well," Sirius nodded, "that's why I'm going to go over and see what's going on sooner?" ”

"And then?" Lupin suddenly retorted, "Since Professor McGonagall was still able to deliver the letter, and since there was no mention of any accidents in the letter, only that they would consider returning to land, this means that at least the change is safe for now...... Or rather, the crisis has passed for the time being. So what we have to do now is probably not to go to the sea to find them, but to find a suitable place for them to land as soon as possible! ”
