Chapter 253: Reaction and Funeral
School Hospital.
Not only the two Ministry of Magic officials, but also the Weasleys, Hermione, Sirius, and several professors and Diggorys were present.
They care about their children, and at the same time they are happy for the rest of their lives.
Madam Pomfrey was a little unhappy that these people had disturbed the patient's rest.
Dumbledore had arrived, and he had come to give the people who were waiting here an answer.
An answer that they, let everyone, need to know.
"Voldemort has regained his physical body."
Everyone waiting here fell into an eerie silence.
Old Barty and Amelia gasped.
"Voldemort is back," Dumbledore spoke again, "a student is dead there, we need to take the necessary measures, and we may be able to salvage the situation." ”
"The first and most important step is to free Azkaban from the control of the Dementors."
Amelia frowned and said, "You think the Dementors will betray the Ministry of Magic?" ”
None of the people here were mediocre, Barty Sr. and Amelia were elites, and they wouldn't be so stupid as to think Dumbledore was old-eyed.
They weren't Fudge, and if they were Fudge's stupid man, he would definitely think that Dumbledore was trying to create panic to reduce his power.
The man who had been in power for so long that he had forgotten the most basic common sense of the wizarding world was smarter than even a student.
"The Dementors are Voldemort's most dangerous nemesis, and to continue to have the Dementors guard a group of people who go to war for him is to give the lamb to the wolf." Dumbledore continued, "Those guys have the same interests as Voldemort, and they can easily get together. ”
Old Barty said, "We can't help it, it's up to the Minister of Magic to decide. ”
He opened his mouth and let things start to sour.
Barty Sr. looked eagerly at Dumbledore, and Amelia realized something.
"The second step we have to take, and we have to do it immediately," Dumbledore deliberately digressed, knowing that Barty Sr. wanted him to choose one of the two of them, "sending a message to the giant." ”
"Giants?" Old Barty looked a little bad, "Those guys were kicked out by us." ”
"Before it's too late, extend a hand of friendship to them," Dumbledore said, "or Voldemort will draw them over, as he had done before." ”
This made old Barty dumb, because Voldemort really did it.
And of all wizards, only Voldemort can provide rights and freedom to giants.
It would be embarrassing for the rest of the wizarding world to establish friendship and cooperate with the giants.
Giants and wizards don't always have a good relationship, especially when they're kicked out.
The wizarding world also hates this kind of big guy who likes to kill, and even the trolls are cuter than them.
Powerful, brutal, murderous.
This is the image of giants in the minds of wizards.
That's why, if it was known that Hagrid was a giant half-blood, he might not even be able to stay at Hogwarts.
Fleur also has a Meiwa blood, but she will not be excluded at all, except for some little girls.
"I want you to follow my advice." Dumbledore looked at the two of them, "Take some precautions, and the entire Ministry of Magic and the wizarding world will always remember the efforts made during this time." ”
He said it very enticingly, and it made people want to do it.
Dumbledore went one step further and added, "Voldemort would gather the Death Eaters, and they would come together, like Aldolph Edgar, who were not dead, they were just hiding. ”
"Aldolf Edgar?!"
"That madman!"
At the mention of this name, which was feared in Voldemort's time, Amelia remembered bad things.
Fortunately, Aldolph is still dead.
And the funny thing is that his death was as consistent as if he had cheated to death, and he was burned to death.
A smile appeared on Amelia's face, and that man had finally been retributed for killing so many people in the Bones family.
Soon Amelia couldn't laugh anymore.
Voldemort was not the only madman, but also Lestrange in Azkaban.
There was silence, whether it was the family members who came to visit the patients, or the professors.
Voldemort was resurrected, and they felt like Voldemort's fall was like yesterday.
A sense of unreality and illusion fills the brain.
Snape also provided strong proof of this.
On his left arm, the Black Mark of an hour ago was hot and black.
This is Voldemort summoning the Death Eaters.
They also listened to the testimony of Harry and Cedric, and Hermione asked, "Professor, why didn't the Death Eaters answer the call of the mysterious man?" ”
Hermione's words made everyone see this blind spot, especially Harry.
He watched Aldolph use the Dark Mark with his own eyes, but even Voldemort didn't expect that the Death Eaters hadn't come.
Dumbledore's eyes flashed with complication, and he said, "I think it has something to do with Johnny's Silver Hand." ”
At the mention of the name, Harry remembered the silver mask.
He vividly remembered Johnny Silverhand and Dumbledore clashing.
Dumbledore didn't want to mention too much, which made Johnny's Silver Hand even more mysterious.
Old Barty's eyes flashed, and Dumbledore's attitude pleased him.
The relationship between him and Johnny's Silver Hand is naturally as mysterious as Johnny's Silver Hand is, the better.
Amelia doesn't think so, she is afraid of Johnny's Silver Hand, and from being the King of Tumbledown Alley to being known as the Second King, Johnny's Silver Hand has always been a thorn in the Ministry of Magic.
"Johnny Silverhand seems to have a plan."
"Is it difficult for Johnny to have a silver hand, and he wants to take the opportunity to grow his power?"
The two had very different ideas.
However, this idea will be dealt with later, and they hope that Dumbledore can speak out in support of a person now.
Just like Fudge in the past, that mediocre man relied on Dumbledore's support to sit in the position of Minister of Magic.
Unfortunately, they didn't succeed because Dumbledore was reluctant to publicly state who he supported.
Either removing the Dementors or contacting the Trolls is a decision that the two of them can't make now.
Dumbledore also knew this, so he made subsequent arrangements.
。。。
Early morning.
The first rays of dawn appeared.
Everyone in the Star Society, with sadness in the solemn atmosphere.
None of them were at school, not even Cedric.
He ran out of the school hospital and stood on this island in the middle of the lake.
The sun shines on the surrounding lake, and the clear water is full of light, and it looks beautiful.
In the crystal coffin, Heinrich regains his former appearance.
John used magic, and even if it dried up his magic and almost fainted, he allowed Heinrich to be decent.
But the physical body is easy to cultivate, and life and death are difficult to reverse.
They watched the friend silently, slowly sinking into the dirt.
Malfoy was silent, and Neville looked away.
Cedric clenched his fists, and Percy stood silently.
Fleur lays down a flower for her, which is a sunflower born to the sun.
Daphne held the half-burned wand in both hands and placed it in Heinrich's hand.
In silence, John pinched a handful of dirt, and he looked at the numb man standing in the distance.
"Death is very close to us."
The dirt in John's hand slid down his fingertips.
"Let us give you a farewell, my friend."
As the dirt fell, the crystal coffin closed its lid.
Instead of using magic, they used their hands to bury Heinrich.
Even if they were embarrassed, they didn't complain.
As if in this way, Heinrich was asleep, not dead.
The crystal coffin has a magical existence.
It doesn't matter if it's John's paranoia or naivety.
He wanted Heinrich to come back, and he wanted to preserve Heinrich's body until he found the magic that could reverse life and death.
"Wait for me."
With everything done, John walked over to the numb Kim Ledisley.
Until now, he has not been able to accept Heinrich's death.
A dull and hoarse voice came out of the mouth of the cheerful boy, "Your Excellency, why did you say that he suddenly fell asleep?" ”
"Obviously we said it," said Kim Ledisley, who lost his spirits and laughter, and was replaced by a kind of loneliness.
It seemed like something was missing, but he couldn't find anything to make it up.
"Kim, I think, he wants to give this to you."
John pulls out the badge of the stars, which is Heinrich's.
Jin looked at it blankly, and after taking it, he whispered, "This is what he cherishes the most." ”
"He said there was light in it, the light he was after."
Touch gently, carefully.
A drop of rain falls on the coat of arms.
Kim muttered, "It's raining? ”
Another drop, making his vision blurry.
Suppressed the mood of a night, the embankment broke.
No one will laugh, they are equally sad.
。。。
Night, the last day of the school year.
Suppressed emotions enveloped the auditorium.
They all knew that someone was dead.
Heinrich Edgar, the vampire-like boy.
He is also the backbone of Slytherin.
When they looked towards the Slytherin location, there were a few fewer people there.
None of them were there, not even Neville was in Gryffindor.
Dumbledore saw the situation below.
"Tonight, I have much to say to all of you," said Dumbledore, "but I would like to say with deep sorrow that we have lost a very good man who should have sat here to enjoy this dinner with us, who could have gone back to his school, but who died to protect his friends, and I want you all to stand up and raise a glass to Heinrich Edgar." ”
While everyone in the auditorium paid tribute to Heinrich, John did not return to school.
He left school early and was already in the Silver Hand Manor.
Tang Mi could see that John was in a bad mood, and said in a low voice, "My lord, mourn." ”
John had a book in his hand and looked cold.
"It is useless to say these things, let others mourn too."
There was a document on the table, and as his signature fell, the document took effect.
Death Eater Bounty Order.
。。。
Some people died, but not completely......
