As the sunset crept into the sky, Scrimgeour sat on the ground without hesitation, gasping for air against the wall of the station.

Ten minutes earlier, the Death Eaters who had been attacking Hogsmeade had finally retreated, and after arranging the aftermath, Scrimgeour could finally sit down and catch his breath.

At this time, he no longer cared about the image of the Minister of Magic, and many wizards around him sat by the wall and rested like him.

(:￣⊥￣)つ≕(▔__▔; )

"Do you want one?" A wizard sitting not far from Scrimgeour handed him two 555s.

"Thank you." Scrimgeour took a cigarette from his hand, lit it with his wand, and took a deep breath, then the smoke gathered into a lion running into the sky.

The next moment, a swan, also made up of the smoke of the cigarette smoke that was spit out, flew into the sky next to the lion.

Then, like children competing with each other, the two kept spitting out various animals made of smoke.

The two of them had so much fun in order to adjust their extremely nervous mentality as soon as possible.

"What's your name?" Scrimgeour had disposed of the cigarette butt only then remembered to ask the name of the wizard who had just handed him the cigarette.

"Bell," the wizard replied, "Bell Grylls, it's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Scrimthour. ”

Scrimgeour nodded, then said, "Thank you so much for your helping hand today. ”

"You're welcome," Bell said, shaking his head, "and that's our duty, too." ”

Among the people resting around Hogsmeade's train station, in addition to robed wizards like Scrimgeour, there were also many government wizards in military uniforms like Bell Grylls.

"I don't know why, but I'm glad the Death Eaters retreated at the last minute." Scrimgeour sighed and said, "If they hold on for another five minutes, the first protective magic here will be breached." ”

Bell, who was apprehensive, nodded, they had almost failed to stop the Death Eaters who had been suppressed by Voldemort himself.

At the same time, in the living room on the second floor of Hogsmeade's café, Zhang Xu was arrested to treat the wounded as soon as he entered the door.

Wales, Nelson, and Rodney sat aside, while Hood, whose chest was bloodied and his long blue dress was torn, lay frowning on the couch, their eyes falling on Zhang Xu's body.

After some questioning, Zhang Xu said to Hood while dressing the wound: "The trauma on the chest has been treated first-aid, and now the bleeding has stopped, and this is not a big problem." ”

He then palpated around the wound and said, "It's a bit tricky to have a few broken ribs that need to be put back in place before the bones can heal." Fortunately, the broken ribs did not stab the heart or lungs. ”

"I'll bother you next." Hood said with a sigh of relief.

After some bone touching and bone grafting, Zhang Xu picked up the injured and broken ribs.

After feeding some potions for the treatment of fractures, Zhang Xu put the fish cakes, which fell asleep immediately after drinking the medicine, on the mat where he usually rested.

"Just don't let it run around for 24 hours." Zhang Xu said to Hood.

Just now, after Zhang Xu comforted Gabrielle and sent her back to the Burrow for her family to take care of, he immediately rushed to Hogsmeade's side alone.

On the outskirts of Hogsmeade, a number of wizards from the Ministry of Magic can be seen carrying corpses on the ground, as well as some lightly injured Aurors bandaging their wounds or drinking potions.

Zhang Xu, who appeared in the distance, saw Hogsmeade withstanding Voldemort's encirclement, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

He was still thinking that if the two sides were at a stalemate when he appeared, he could harass the Death Eaters from the outside and relieve the pressure on Hogsmeade's side.

As early as a year ago, Zhang Xu quietly submitted the general framework of the "North Atlantic Barrier" plan to Dumbledore and Scrimgeur. The plan analyzes the inevitability of Voldemort's capture of the Ministry of Magic and the need for the Ministry to move into a new fortress.

Although the protective magic in the Ministry of Magic was so powerful that Voldemort had to rely on internal responses to conquer it. But the magic has been around for so long that it can easily be found by Voldemort and his gang.

In particular, not long after the plan was submitted, a series of explosions occurred during the Merlin Medal Presentation Ceremony in the auditorium of the Ministry of Magic, which made Dumbledore and Scrimgeour determined to refine and implement the plan.

Zhang Xu did not participate in the specific details of the state-level action of building a wartime fortress of the head of government, but only participated in the formulation of the "Generator Plan" and the "Cockroach Pile Plan" as subsidiary plans.

Dumbledore, the Ministry of Magic, and the government army have quietly built a defense system at Hogwarts and Hogsmeade based on the government's nuclear arsenal protection magic, while absorbing the strengths of each family. This defense system will only be activated when the "Generator Project" and "Cockroach Heap Project" are activated.

Zhang Xu only got a hint about this matter through Scarlet, one of the participants, and the detailed information is unknown.

Judging from the current reality, the "North Atlantic Barrier" project was a success, and it seems that Voldemort will have to spend a lot of effort to crack the defensive magic here in the face of different defense systems.

Zhang Xu was finally able to enter Hogsmeade after being identified, and his first stop was to come to the café to learn about the situation just now.

Just from the injuries of ginger and fish cakes, you can see how fierce the battle was just now.

After Zhang Xu placed the fish cakes and ginger, he sat down on the sofa in the living room and asked Hood on the other side, "Is your injury okay, Ms. Hood?" ”

"Am I going to lie like this if it's okay?" Hood turned his head and gave Zhang Xu a blank look.

"Do you need me to call 999 for you?" Zhang Xu saw that the other party still had the spirit to joke with himself, indicating that the problem was not serious.

What Zhang Xu didn't know was that at this time, Hood had 41,785 Oscars running wildly in his heart.

"The back of the old lady's long skirt is torn and gone, I was busy treating the fish cake just now, so I didn't have time to change my clothes, if you didn't come in suddenly, the old lady would have to lie here so as not to be taken advantage of by you."

Hood looked at the other three with a pleading gaze, and the result was ......

"It's getting late, I'm going to get dinner ready."

"I'm going to write a report first, and call me when dinner is ready."

"Sister, I'll help you make dinner. Mr. Zhang, you can take a break here and have dinner together. ”
