Chapter 471: Hogwarts Meeting (1)
In the empty common room of the Lion House, Hallie sat alone at the table, staring intently at the stack of parchment in her hand. On the table, there was an empty plate with only a few pie crumbs left, and a half-drunk glass of pumpkin juice.
It was a plan from Kreacher before lunch, along with Mrs. Weasley's freshly made beef pie.
Harry's stomach twitched when she saw the familiar handwriting on the parchment just now, and she couldn't help but think of what had happened in the principal's office that night.
It's just that what she doesn't know is that Zhang has a quill in his hand that can imitate Lao Deng's handwriting.
So much has happened in the past few days that Harley has been in a trance until this morning.
She finally accepted the matter of becoming a girl temporarily, and Zhang used her savings in Gringotts to ensure that she would not drink all the men because of drinking this medicine, which made her feel at ease a little.
As a result, she was attacked by the Death Eaters at the Burrow's wedding, which was expected, but she never expected Snape to suddenly capture her.
After Harley was captured, she almost revealed her identity when confronted by Snape's strongman lock man.
Fortunately, Snape was in a trance at the last moment, allowing her to escape.
What Harley didn't know was that if she ran two seconds too late, she would face a dilemma when Malfoy found them.
When she arrived at the familiar Hogwarts Headmaster's office and saw Professor McGonagall, Harley, who didn't know how to speak to some men, cried for a while.
When Professor McGonagall saw the clue and asked if she was Harry Potter, Harley replied with tears in her eyes, "Meow...... It's meow, McGonagall meow......"
Hallie didn't figure out for a moment whether to call Professor McGonagall or Headmaster, and she froze.
Professor McGonagall frowned, she had seen Snape hit a trick and instantly figured out the current situation, this was not a ghost of Zhang, she would change her surname to Mai Meow in the future.
"Potter...... "Professor McGonagall snapped for a moment, "you take a rest here, you're safe here." ”
After comforting Hallie, Professor McGonagall walked to her desk and picked up the large stack of plans with "Cockroach Heap" written on the cover of the box that had just opened with a "pop".
As the so-called meow friend is not meow poor, anyway, Hallie's arrival has helped her solve a big problem, at least she doesn't need to "meow" in front of the previous principals.
Before reading the proposal, Professor McGonagall saw that Hallie's dress was torn, sighed, and returned to her dorm. Professor McGonagall opened a small suitcase, and at the bottom of the suitcase pulled out two dresses that she had worn in her youthful beauty. The last time she wore these dresses was when she was dating her first boyfriend just after graduation.
Professor McGonagall returned to the Principal's office and handed Harley the dress in her hand.
"Your skirt is torn, you should wear these two dresses first these days."
At this point, Harley could only accept Professor McGonagall's kindness in a daze.
Soon after, the Order of the Phoenix, who had come to protect Harley, arrived and joined the professors who had been urgently recalled to the school to fight off a group of Death Eaters who attempted to attack Hogwarts.
Early this morning, Lupin found Harley in the boys' dormitory at the Lion House and asked if she could attend an important meeting tonight as a representative of the Order of the Phoenix.
Without hesitation, Harley agreed.
≒Dividing line≒
After a busy day and a half, the Ministry of Magic finally gained a foothold in Hogsmeade, and Voldemort's gang, who needed to re-establish power, did not show up for a day today. At this time, the Ministry of Magic and the British government had time to sit down and seriously discuss the way forward. For security and confidentiality reasons, the meeting was scheduled at Hogwarts.
At eight o'clock in the evening, in the Great Hall of Hogwarts, the tables and chairs that normally students eat have been removed, replaced by a huge round table in the middle of the Great Hall. Around the round table, representatives from all walks of life were seated.
In addition to representatives of the British government, such as the Ministry of Magic and the British National Security Council, the newly formed Aurors International and Professor McGonagall, representing Hogwarts, also attended the meeting as a civil society.
After a brief explanation, everyone expressed their understanding and support for Harry, who had become Harley, and many people said that Miss Hallie could have a drink after the meeting.
At this time, no one here realized that his name would become a mandatory part of the students' memorization because of today's meeting.
The meeting has been going on for some time and consensus has been reached on a number of less important issues.
For example, the characterization of the Death Eater organization, led by Voldemort. If they were limited to the wizarding world, they would be an anti-government organization. But now that the British government has intervened, in their opinion, Voldemort and his gang can only be regarded as an extreme terrorist organization, and Voldemort's gang is not qualified as an anti-government organization.
However, when the process of the meeting came to discuss the next course of action, there was a full exchange of views among the participants. After all, each side has its own demands, and sometimes their own interests are not necessarily in the interests of friendly forces.
The next meeting came close to the early hours of the morning in the in-depth exchanges between all parties, and in this extraordinary period, time is very precious, which makes everyone have to cheer up and continue the meeting. After a simple late-night snack and break in the early hours of the morning, the meeting was reconvened the next day, so to speak.
At the beginning of the second session of the meeting, Harley, who had been working as a mascot for several hours, suddenly took the lead and threw out the plan that Kreacher had sent before lunch, in the name of Dumbledore.
At this time, Dumbledore's prestige was still there, and when all the participants heard that it was the plan he left behind before his death, they all stopped arguing and looked at Harley quietly.
Hallie took out several prepared plans and handed them out to the congregation, then began to read.
"In the plan he left behind, Dumbledore proposed that we should comprehensively defeat the Two-Hole Socket Man and his organization in several aspects, including economic, political, and military." Harley flipped to the cover of the first page with the plan, and read it as she looked at the preface.
In the next few minutes, Harley finished reading the preface to the plan, and Scrimgeour and the others had already hastily flipped through the plan.
Everyone has been tested by copywriting for a long time, and you can know the general framework of this plan just by looking at the table of contents.
"I think we should adjourn the meeting for now, and we'll talk about the plan Dumbledore left behind tomorrow morning, when we're ready." Scrimgeour suggested to the group.
With a plan that everyone can accept, everyone finally doesn't have to quarrel aimlessly, now they can study the plan carefully, and then start a new round of straining around it. So Scrimgeour's proposal was unanimously supported by all parties present, and everyone needed to go back and stay up all night to study what was good for them and what was bad for them.
