Chapter 293: The ambush failed to be counter-killed
As night fell, today's café closed early.
Due to the Death Eaters' escape, the students of Hogwarts were required to return to the castle before dinner began, and the residents of Hogsmeade rarely came out.
Under the light of candles on the living room table, Zhang Xu had dinner with four ladies.
At the dinner table, the ladies treated Zhang Xu as a teenager at first, and they also raced him from time to time, trying to make this hairy young man embarrassed.
But after a few rounds, Zhang Xu not only did not make a mess, but also counterattacked them a little red-faced.
After a few battles, everyone stopped the driving game, today is the first time everyone meets, just have fun, everyone understands the principle of moderation. It is not this method that deepens friendship between each other, at least not yet. These are just embellishments, and the focus is on the exchange of intelligence between the two sides.
Zhang Xu told them a lot of interesting facts about Hogwarts, and revealed some information about Hogwarts that could be revealed between the lines of a small story.
The ladies also told Zhang Xu about their situation through various interesting stories.
After having a good dinner, everyone chatted for a while, and Zhang Xu said goodbye and returned to Hogwarts.

A premeditated ambush against an individual, the action component is often intense and short.
An ambush operation takes the most time to gather intelligence, formulate plans, and conduct intelligence reconnaissance in the early stage, which can be described in detail in tens of thousands of words.
Many successful ambushes are often over in the time of a cigarette, and a report can be written in one or two thousand words. Those that take a long time are basically battles with a large number of people.
Several people on both sides are in a state of fighting for their lives, and they can make any move with great strength, and most of them can be typed with four or five chapters of water characters, and most of them are artistic processing.
If you don't believe it, refer to those legal programs, most of the time is to describe the investigation process of the case, except for the criminals who escaped through the net, the time to really catch the criminals is extremely short.
How many words did Voldemort's side use to prepare for this ambush against him, Zhang Xu didn't know, Zhang Xu only knew that he was walking on the way back to Hogwarts, and then he was surrounded by six Death Eaters.
At the beginning, when the "pop" and "pop" sound of the phantom shifter sounded, Zhang Xu once imagined that this was a café where they were going to play a scene where a beautiful woman saves the hero.
However, when he saw that the person who appeared in front of him was Barty Crouch Jr., Zhang Xu dispelled that idea.
It could be seen that the Death Eaters were in a hurry, and in order to avoid unexpected problems in the long nights, they didn't talk nonsense and went straight to it.
However, the Death Eaters were not trained professionals, and they had a time difference of almost three seconds when they came through the apparitions. And in their subconscious minds, they have to wait until everyone is together to make a move on Zhang Xu. This provided Zhang Xu with a rare opportunity to fight back.
Just as the first phantom shifting "snap" sounded, and when Barty Crouch Jr. appeared in front of Zhang Xu, Zhang Xu subconsciously flicked his wand from his sleeve to his right hand.
When the fifth Death Eater appeared, Zhang Xu had already waved his wand, and a chain of lightning flew towards the Death Eater.
After the lightning struck the Death Eater, he immediately turned to the sixth Death Eater who had just emerged from the apparition not far away, and as a result, the lightning caused the Death Eater's apparition to be disturbed, and the whole person was scattered all over the ground.
It's a pity that the completion of this spell is not enough, and he can only paralyze people for a while without electrocuting them, and the Death Eater who was dismantled because of the interference of the phantom transformation can only be said to be unlucky, if he appeared half a second earlier or half a second later, he would not have ended up like this.
Seeing that the gap in the encirclement had been opened, Zhang Xu immediately activated the Giant Spell on the sneakers on the sneakers of one of the three pieces of the Grim Reaper that he received on Christmas, and the whole person rushed towards the Death Eaters who had not yet recovered from the chain lightning just now.
At this time, the other Death Eaters had come to their senses, and several spells flew towards Zhang Xu, along with an invisibility smoke bomb.
Zhang Xu immediately jumped up when he heard the sound of a spell behind him, and under the effect of the Death Sneakers, he jumped to a height of nearly two meters, and three spells passed under him.
When Zhang Xu landed, he landed right next to the fifth Death Eater who appeared, and then took advantage of the fact that he didn't react to the dagger in his left hand and slashed out, and the dagger coated with the basilisk venom of the previous year slashed the other party's shoulder.
At this time, the stealth smoke bomb exploded behind Zhang Xu, causing Zhang Xu to suddenly fall into darkness.
Zhang Xu, who was in the dark, did not panic, put away the dagger while moving in the snakeskin, threw out a smoke grenade, and then used the transformation technique to turn a stone on the ground into a stone man similar to himself and continued to run around in the smoke, and then immediately took out a flying sword and flew into the air.
The four Death Eaters holding the Hand of Glory originally thought that they could blind Zhang Xu with a stealth smoke bomb, but Zhang Xu returned the favor with the other way, and the light of the candle on the Hand of Glory could not penetrate the smoke of the smoke grenade.
Zhang Xu, who was in the air, rushed out of the range of the stealth smoke bomb, took out a grenade and pulled the string and counted for two seconds, and then threw it towards a place where the spell sounded.
The place where the Death Eaters chose to ambush Zhang Xu was on the road from Hogsmeade to Hogwarts, and for fear of being discovered by Dumbledore, the ambush point was far from Hogwarts and not far from Hogsmeade.
The explosion of a grenade was heard over a long distance in the quiet night sky.
From the appearance of the Death Eaters to the present, more than half a minute has passed, and half of the six Death Eaters have fallen.
A few seconds later, the sound of apparitions in the air sounded again, and the four ladies of the Interesting Cafe appeared near the scene.
The smoke from Zhang Xu and the Death Eater's smoke bomb was blown away a little by the grenade's shock wave, and except for one Death Eater lying on the ground whose fate was unknown, the other Death Eaters were still in the smoke.
Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, Zhang Xu immediately transmitted the sound to tell them the situation at the scene.
After getting Zhang Xu's information, the four of them divided into two groups, Hood with Nelson, Welsh with Rodney, and Zhang Xu floating in the air, faintly surrounded the Death Eaters in the smoke.
After blowing all the smoke away with a gust of wind, the three Death Eaters with the Glorious Hand found themselves surrounded.
