Order of the Phoenix.

"Voldemort lost the help of the Death Eaters," Moody tapped his wooden leg on the floor, "but we all know his ambitions, and he will look for others." ”

"Werewolves, giants, banshees, ......"

"He can also look for some new followers."

Moody is already retired, but he still knows Voldemort very well.

Lupin continued, "Voldemort was hit hard at the Ministry of Magic and he was almost dead. ”

"Yes, we all know, Moonface." Sirius interrupted him, not quite wanting to remember the incident, "But now, he's still outside, and we can't leave the Order of the Phoenix easily. ”

"Weasley's magical wall clock is always pointing to mortal danger, which means we could die at any moment."

Tonks said in a deep voice: "The Ministry of Magic has not given up the search either, and the new Headmaster of Hogwarts, Professor Slughorn, has applied for the protection of the Aurors. ”

"He also knows how dangerous Voldemort is now," Lupin said in a deep voice, "and the loss of the Death Eaters has made Voldemort less of the possibility of doing evil everywhere, and it has made it even more dangerous. ”

A Dark Lord who has no worries is even more terrifying.

The dark-skinned Kingsley looked at Dumbledore and said, "There's bad news circulating that something that can grant a wish is hidden at Hogwarts. ”

"We can't confirm if there are any Voldemort henchmen among the purebloods, and this news is not good for us."

"The Holy Grail." Sirius sat there sideways and said nonchalantly, "Does that thing really have that ability?" ”

"I think so, if your eyes weren't blind because of something."

The familiar yin and yang strange tone made Sirius's face quickly darken.

Snape sat on Dumbledore's right hand and said in a long tone, "You saw with your own eyes that an old man was rejuvenated. ”

"yes, I'm afraid you haven't seen it, after all, when we fought in the Ministry of Magic, you were still shaking in the school holding the crucible." Sirius immediately replied sarcastically.

Snape looked at him coldly, Sirius not to be outdone.

"The Potions Master, Severus Snape, was tricked into a student's trick of feigning death." Sirius continued to output, sneering, "I really doubt that you have what it takes to not mislead people. ”

"You dare to question me?" Snape said gloomily, "Broken Ribs, Sirius Black. ”

The two of them smelled of gunpowder, so Tonks couldn't help but rub his arms.

Dumbledore interrupted this.

"You're wrong, Sirius."

It sounded like he was standing next to Snape, but he was wrong.

Dumbledore said calmly, "John, die once. ”

"No way, we all know ......," Kingsley subconsciously retorted.

"Magic can't be resurrected, yes, we all know that." Dumbledore said calmly, "But he did, Sirius met him in the Hall of Death, the arch that connected to places that no one knew." ”

"Is he the same as the mystery man?" Tonks said this, and the atmosphere suddenly cooled.

They all knew that the only one who could have anything to do with it in this century was Lord Voldemort.

Voldemort lost his body in Godric's Hollow and turned into a geist.

After more than ten years, it was reborn last year.

This is the only possibility they can think of.

Dumbledore skipped the topic, he looked at Kingsley and asked, "What was the international response to the other person?" ”

"It's terrible," Kingsley said, shaking his head, "and the ministries of magic have been held accountable, and they're pointing fingers at poor regulation." ”

"yes, who would have thought he would leave there." There was some loss in Dumbledore's eyes.

Grindelwald.

Now Grindelwald, what else is worth leaving Newmondgard?

"The place where he last appeared was the same as Voldemort's, Germany."

Kingsley muttered, "We can't find out there. ”

"I'll be looking for some old friends."

Don't underestimate Dumbledore's hundreds of years of connections.

From Nicol Lemay to thieves like Mundungus.

They are all part of his network.

Even if it is a foreign country, there are old friends of his.

The meeting ended with the defense of Hogwarts.

Tonks was appointed by the Ministry of Magic to strengthen Hogwarts' defenses, and the Order of the Phoenix also needed to be careful.

No one knows when Voldemort will retaliate.

...

End of meeting.

Kingsley and Tonks left.

Sirius approached Dumbledore and said, "He's starting again." ”

Dumbledore looked at Mundungus in the corner.

Lupin also came over and said helplessly: "He took out Kreacher's bed in the kitchen in the morning, and he was going to take out his things and sell them." ”

Sirius said angrily, "This is not the first time. ”

"I'll talk to him." Dumbledore called for Mundungus to come over.

The image of Monton Gues, who was caught stealing things, is odd.

Half of his head has hair, and the other half has no hair.

Half of the face is black, half of the face is white.

Teeth keep falling out and growing back.

During that time, he lost another tooth.

"Mondongues, why are you obsessed with stealing Blake's belongings?" Dumbledore didn't get angry, just patiently asked.

Mundungus spat out a tooth and pleaded, "If I don't pay any more money, I'll go crazy." ”

He was used as a human subject for various products and spent most of his time at the Silver Cross Hospital.

He was going crazy, and these experiments caused him some after-effects.

The skin color is not normal, and the teeth will fall out.

He had been feeling like his brain wasn't in shape lately, perhaps a daydream curse.

This time he tried to steal what Kreacher had hidden, scuffled with Kreacher, and was captured by Sirius.

Dumbledore was about to say something when he saw Harry hurrying over.

"Sirius, what is this?"

He ran in with a golden locket in his hand and asked, followed by Hermione and Ron.

Sirius heard the call and looked over, saw the thing, and said casually, "It's a broken box, you found it from Kreacher's pile of rags?" ”

"Yes," Harry said hurriedly, "I mean, where did you get this?" ”

"I don't know," Sirius said, in a daze, "there's something strange in the Black house, maybe Kreacher picked it up." ”

Dumbledore noticed the box and saw the markings on it, and he said to Harry, "Harry, show me something." ”

Harry was stunned for a moment, and seeing Dumbledore's cautious attitude, he handed it over.

"You know this thing?" Dumbledore asked, looking closely.

Harry nodded and said, "John has an exact one. ”

"It can't be," Dumbledore said, shaking his head and looking Harry in the eye, "if I'm not mistaken, this is Salazar Slytherin's locket. ”

"Slytherin stuff? How did you end up here? Harry said in surprise.

At this time, Sirius looked more and more wrong, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

"Among the things that Fletch was going to steal in the morning was this locket."

He moved his gaze to Mundungus, stepped forward with an arrow, grabbed his collar, and roared, "What the hell are you for! ”

Mondongues' legs trembled, and he hurriedly said, "I didn't, I just wanted to steal something to pay it back." ”

His scared expression didn't seem fake.

Dumbledore stopped Sirius' impulsive behavior, and he pressed his large hand on Mundungus' shoulder, as if he had discovered something.

"Tell me, who told you to do this?"

Montungus was so frightened that he said sorry like a bean.

"I owed so much that I stole once, and Donmi Shelby told me that I could continue to pay off my debts with these big things."

"Donmi Shelby?" Lupin was stunned and asked urgently, "Johnny's silver hand Tang Mi?" ”

"Yes, that's him." Mundungus nodded.

Dumbledore's face changed, and he looked at what he was holding.

At this moment, he was sure.

"John was looking for it."

He holds a Slytherin locket.

Sirius said to Harry, "Harry, you're doing a very good job. ”

He turned his head to look at the box, and Dumbledore's expression at the moment, and said, "We seem to have caught a little bit of that clever boy's secret. ”

"He's so clever with Fletsch."

Harry was dazed.

And John didn't know that he was only one step away from the Horcrux of the Order of the Phoenix.

He is in his own layout.

Inconspicuous gossip circulated in Tumbledown Alley at a drinking party, along with the whispers of the Malfoy noblewoman.

It's like a little spark, lighting the hay, and gradually getting bigger and bigger.

...

Some people died, but not completely......
