Chapter 239: Participation

Rita found Lovegood unreasonable.

It's all mush in my head!

How could anyone be so obsessed with children's fairy tales, even to the point of believing them to be true.

"At least he won't stop you from publishing anything." Harry looked back.

Mr. Lovegood straightened his back and walked with great force.

Harry sighed, he was wrong.

He wasn't the same as Dumbledore.

Dumbledore just looked, and occasionally he might indeed be a little crazy, but he had brains and abilities.

No, he's just crazy.

"But to be a colleague with him, I still have to listen to him" Rita clenched her fists, she even had the courage to disagree with Harry.

"He doesn't look smart." Harry interrupted her, "Although my daughter looks sharp, she is still young. ”

"The things he wants, I'll talk to Hagrid when school starts, and he'll probably be interested."

"Just concentrate on our business."

Rita muttered, reluctantly responding.

"By the way, there's one more thing." Harry continued, "Miss Skeeter, I'm afraid you're going to have one more task. ”

Rita took a step back, her voice trembling, and she stammered, "Again, what task?" ”

"Legnak, you know?" Harry asked.

Rita nodded: "Of course, the leader of the rebel elves, a pathetic old elf who has nothing ambition and forging skills, and nothing else. ”

"It's gone." Harry nodded, "Find it." ”

"It's just a goblin." Rita shook her head.

Harry didn't speak, but tapped on his robe, slamming the strip of cloth against his leather armor with a low, muffled sound.

Rita suddenly.

Forget that, this Mr. Potter is a dual cultivator of melee combat and magic.

"Shall I find it first?" Rita tentatively spoke, "Hold off for a while what has to do with that gentleman?" ”

Leprechaun, it's safe.

Harry shook his head: "It's not a conflict, we suspect that Legnak may be with that group of people, and if you find it, you will find that group." ”

Rita's face turned green.

goblin

It's safe, but when you get involved with the Death Eaters, it's even more dangerous!

"Mr. Potter, I." Rita's voice became extremely frightened.

Harry shook his head and didn't speak, just pulled a bottle of potion out of his pocket and shoved it into her hand.

"What is this?" Rita picked it up, it was a potion she had never seen before, the potion was pitch black, but clear and clean, like a black gem.

"The potion that Professor Snape has developed." Harry explained, "When you drink it, you can manipulate your body into a liquid, which can save your life in case you get caught by the Death Eaters again. ”

Rita couldn't help but sob.

Mr. Potter was so caring that he had already considered himself being caught again.

She carefully put away the potion, trying to take advantage of her small size and flamboyant and childish makeup, disguise herself as a poor little girl, and ask for another bottle of potion from Harry.

"I don't think you should be, you were caught, you fled, you didn't know how to come back for help, and you stupidly went to send someone's head." Harry politely declined.

The recipe for this potion, Snape hadn't taught him yet.

I don't have much in my own hands.

Rita sighed.

Why are there so many capable people in the Order of the Phoenix, but this heavy burden falls on such a pitiful and weak ladybug as himself.

Back at Black's house, Rita was lying in the living room, out of breath.

Ron, along with George and Fred, discuss who the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor will be for the next year.

Sirius was on the sidelines, praising the "unmasked" new professor, praising how appropriate the book he had chosen, and that the new professor must be a very good professor for both the fifth and seventh grades.

George and Fred were skeptical.

An old Auror like Professor Moody can't compare to Professor Lupin, and who else is better than Professor Lupin?

Ron was eager to blow Lupin into the sky, and he did not hesitate to belittle the new professor who was "never masked".

"Ron is going to be out of luck when school starts." Hermione was expressionless.

"See?" Harry asked her.

Hermione nodded: "Sirius is not a person who cares much about strangers, and for him to be like this, that is, to receive an invitation from Professor Dumbledore." ”

"But how did you think it was him?"

"I guess there's no one to use it." Harry speculated, "The Ministry of Magic has even recalled Professor Moody, and it is estimated that no one will be able to come, and those who are willing to be restrained by that group of people, but only Sirius will be left." ”

"That's a good thing, too."

"Save me from being at home, he is running around, and what danger is there."

Hermione nodded.

July was coming to an end soon, and on his birthday, the Order of the Phoenix held a big birthday party for Harry, and Snape didn't attend, but the gift didn't fall, it was the experience and ideas he had generated from brewing witcher potions during this time.

This is the greatest gift of a Potions Master.

Dumbledore gave Harry, incidental, and Hermione a bracelet with two magical breaths on them.

Hermione sent Harry a pendant to replace the one Bill had given him earlier, it was exquisite, sterling silver with rubies on the edges, a living griffon carved on the front and Harry's name engraved on the reverse.

Harry loved it.

It would be even better if the badge had a wolf's head - Animagus, who had only learned to become a white wolf, had finally proved his identity as a wolf witcher, and Hermione had given her such a badge.

Well.

Without any hesitation, he changed the amulet and put on the "griffin" pendant.

The gifts from the others were very decent.

What surprised Harry the most was Neville's gift, a steel sword, the ordinary kind, which was used for decoration more than actual combat, and a letter that he hoped to meet and talk to Harry while he was on the train.

But it didn't make a difference to the dinner.

They drank and sang.

Tonks staggered down the musty curtain in the foyer, waking up the portrait of Mrs. Walburga Black, so that the second half of the birthday party was enveloped in the shrill cries of the portraits.

She was sorry for that, and this was the thirteenth time she had apologized for it.

However, this did not make any difference, it only made Sirius want to take the portrait off stronger, but he couldn't take it off despite his great efforts because of the "permanent stickiness" spell applied to it.

Ask Dumbledore and Harry for help, but the two of them have almost the same attitude in this matter, and are unwilling to help, it is Sirius's mother after all. They don't have that qualification.

Time ticks and ticks.

Another Full Moon is coming.

"Tomorrow we need to leave for a while." At dinner time, Harry begged for them.

"Remus is at home?" Arthur was stunned.

Harry nodded, "Yes." ”

"I'll stay in my room then." Hermione didn't hesitate to speak, "It's too much trouble to go back. ”

"We're hiding in the room too." George and Fred swallowed the lamb in their mouths, "And the new weapon hasn't been shown to Harry, and we've been working on some data revisions lately." ”

"I have to say, math is a real headache."

"But we're pretty much the same, and we're just going to verify it at the end."

Arthur stiffened: "No, no, at least with Harry, Dumbledore, and I all present, so that you can experiment like you did that day." ”

"Harry said he was going to wait until he got back to Hogwarts." George sighed, "The school has a lot of space. ”

Arthur's eyes turned horrified.

"Black Lake." Harry reminded him that Hogwarts was not only a castle, but also a vast open space.

Arthur breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then Molly and I just took Ginny back to have a look." He nodded and whispered, "It's been a long time since we've been back to the Burrow. ”

"Where's Miss Tonks?" Harry looked at the long table, the only one who hadn't spoken.

Not all of the people in the Order of the Phoenix are idle, they all have jobs, and the reason why Arthur goes back to Black's house every day is because Molly and the children stay here so that they can take care of Harry, Sirius, and Lupin.

The three of them are not even unable to live, they can live well.

But Molly didn't bother about it.

A godfather, an uncle, even want a teenager to take care of?

She couldn't take it anymore and asked Ying to stay, just as Bill, Charlie, and Percy returned.

Tonks is the only one who doesn't have any reason to stay, but comes every day.

"Me?" Tonks looked up, "Of course I'm going to stay, Hermione wants me to teach her."

"Some knowledge of Auror training." Hermione panicked, pressed the table, interrupted her, and preemptively said what was behind.

Tonks looked confused.

Isn't it beauty magic?

Why did you suddenly change your hexagram and become the knowledge of Auror training?

Harry nodded, and they continued to eat.

"Will it be dangerous for Remus to become a werewolf tomorrow?" Tonks asked suddenly.

Lu flattened his face, his tone was serious, and he picked up the professor's tone: "Miss Tonks, as an Auror, you should understand the dangers of werewolves, that is, we are a very dangerous creature, and after becoming werewolves, we will lose our minds. ”

"Didn't you drink wolf venom potion all the time this week?" Tonks asked rhetorically.

Lupin remained serious: "That's just keeping me sane, remembering, part of it, not all of it." ”

"If you pay attention to the regulations on werewolves introduced by the Ministry of Magic a few years ago, even werewolves who take wolf poison potions are advised to stay away from crowds during the full moon."

Tonks nodded blankly, stabbed the steak a few times with his fork, and after a while, raised his head again: "I heard that Harry and Sirius are helping you find a way to break the werewolf curse?" ”

"I'm a mature Auror, can I get involved?"

Lupin shook his head and immediately refused: "No, it's dangerous"

"Absolutely." Harry's voice overshadowed him, "The Godfather and I would welcome a reliable helper. ”

Sirius stopped talking.

Tonks has always been very aggressive.
