Chapter 58: Protecting Harry
After a few days of boredom in the old mansion, Lockhart felt even more uneasy.
Despite Ron's presence there, Hermione continued to clean the old mansion with everyone every day, and ran to Lockhart, and often seemed to run into his room unneatly dressed to sit on his bed and chat with him - Hermione explained that she was like this at home, and the most common was Hermione's excessive affection, intentionally or unintentionally - hugging her arms was already the lightest. But the two were very familiar in school, and now they are both insiders of the Order of the Phoenix, which makes Lockhart embarrassed to put on a professor's stand and reprimand her.
Lockhart is not a child like Ron, and Hermione's behavior is too obvious, is it that he brushes his favorability too fiercely, and Hermione doesn't like Ron but likes himself more? Lockhart thought to himself, if Ron and Hermione can't get together, will it have any impact? But it shouldn't have much impact, because Lockhart decided to take the initiative with the Order of the Phoenix, there should be no matter about these two children, and there is no need to think about any plot.
Then it doesn't matter, you can't sue Hermione, you should fall in love with Ron, Ron himself doesn't work hard, you can't blame Lockhart.
On this day, Snape also came to the headquarters, and immediately called all the members of the headquarters to the conference room.
"The Dark Lord wants the prophecy orb," Snape began, "the one who prophesied that Potter would defeat him, and it's in the Department of Mysteries." β
"What?" Jasmine didn't know.
"Hogwarts Prophecy Professor, that silly woman made a prophecy. Snape spat out a few words.
"Trelawney?"
"She was the one who made this prophecy," Snape remembered Lily, and the pain hit him instantly, and tears almost flowed from his eyes, "Killed..."
"It was the prophecy that Harry was the savior that brought the death of Jaime and Lily. Cyris frowned and helped Snape finish.
"Oh my God," Jasmine was a little unbearable, "why does he want that?" β
"He doesn't know the full prophecyβ" Snape was still depressed.
"Severus, cheer up, we're going to avenge those people. Lockhart reassured.
"So what do we do. Cyreth asked.
"Find someone to look at the ball and let us know if something happens. Moody said, "Arthur, I'll leave this matter to you, and you and a few other people in the Ministry of Magic will arrange time to take turns watching the Department of Mysteries." β
"Understood. β
"Arthur, can you secretly erect a fireplace line from headquarters to the Ministry of Magic, as you can do it?" Lockhart asked, "I don't know much about that. β
"There's no need to set it up, the Floo network itself is accessible everywhere, as long as you secretly move your hands and feet in the relevant departments, confuse the spell or something, and make the system mistakenly think that the fireplace in our headquarters here is the fireplace of a high-ranking official of the Ministry of Magic, and then it can be passed. β
"Well, this needs to be done immediately," Moody thought for a moment, "let Tonks watch it for the next few days, and you can take care of the fireplace first." β
"Oh, got it. "Tonks seems to be on a fugue just now, and has been doing so since he returned from a trip with Lupin, but it doesn't seem like there's been much progress in their relationship.
"What does Headmaster Dumbledore think?" Lupin spoke.
"He told us to take care of ourselves, but asked us to make sure that at least one of them was secretly protecting Harry. Snape replied.
"Who has been protecting Harry with Miss Feige lately?" Tonks expressed her concern.
"That slacker of Mondonguez," Moody said, "he took the initiative to ask for it, and seemed to think that protecting Harry was much easier than any other task. β
"It's as simple as mixing two glasses of water with a third glass," Snape said gloomily, recovering from painful memories, "but I still don't think it's responsible to let that kind of scum do the heavy lifting." β
"I don't think he's going to mess around with something like that. "Cyreth was always at odds with Snape.
"I sued him," Moody said fiercely, "and if something happens to Harry, I'll kill him." β
"Severus, go back first, we'll take care of this and don't make that person suspicious. Lockhart reminded.
"Good. Snape grimaced, and left.
"Gildero, you've been idle lately, going to the street where Harry lives, and working with Mundungus to protect Harry. Moody seemed to be touched by Snape's words.
"Okay, and then. β
"No more!Although the Death Eaters have been badly damaged, there are still a lot of ruthless characters here, so beware, everyone!" Moody looked around, "Gidero, you go now, I seem to have a bad premonition." β
"You're doing the same thing," Lockhart said, standing up, "and I'll get there." β
Lockhart pushed the door out and found that something was hanging in the doorway, it was rising rapidly, he immediately drew his wand, and the hand speed of the perennial sneak attack on others played a role at this time, and an object was shot down by him, and fell to the ground with a click.
Lockhart picked it up and looked at it, his nervous expression eased, but then he shouted, "George, Fred, get down, use your feet!"
Jasmine popped up from the conference room, "What's the matter, Gidero, what bad things are they doing again?"
Lockhart handed the ear to Jasmine, and then looked at the children coming downstairs - George and Fred (maybe Fred and George?), Ginny, Hermione, Ron.
"How many times have you been told not to eavesdrop on the meeting?" Jasmine rushed to squeeze Fred and George's ears, but was dodged, "You are so curious to catch the mysterious man?!"
