Chapter 177: Living Together

Harry's throat stopped flustering, and he spoke.

"I'll spend Christmas and Easter at Hogwarts forever," he said, "and I don't want to go back to Privet Road." ”

"Oh, yes, when you're calmed down, I'm sure you won't think like that." Fudge said, in a worried tone. "They're your family after all, and I'm sure you, oh, love each other deep down."

Harry didn't want to correct Fudge. He was still waiting to hear how he would be sent down.

"Then all that's left for now," Fudge said, looking at Charon, "where are you going to spend the remaining two weeks of vacation......

"Harry can stay at my house if he wants." Charon seemed to understand something, and stepped forward to promise, "I believe that my family is still safe." ”

After hearing this, Fudge hesitated, then nodded, "Since Mr. Charon is willing to help, it is very good." ”

"Wait," Harry said hurriedly, "what about the punishment given to me?" ”

Fudge blinked.

"Disposition?"

"I've broken the law," Harry said, "a decree restricting minors from using magic!" ”

"Oh, dear child, we will not punish you for such a trivial matter," called Fugu, waving his hand impatiently. "That's a coincidence, we're not going to send them to Azkaban just to blow up Auntie."

But these words were completely inconsistent with Harry's past dealings with the Ministry of Magic, let alone Harry's impression of the Ministry. Charon felt that it was normal, their Shafiq family had enjoyed this privilege for thousands of years, and they didn't feel that there was a problem at all.

"Last year, I received a formal warning just because my uncle's leprechaun broke a piece of pudding!" Harry said with a frown. "The Ministry of Magic says that if I do any more magic there, Hogwarts will expel me."

Seeing that Harry was open-mouthed, Charon was going to be angry, where could he come to the door to find punishment! Isn't that a matter of what you say to keep Secretary Fudge out of office? He quickly pulled Harry hard, and then said, "Harry is just a child, and he doesn't understand that the purpose of the Ministry of Magic is to educate and not to punish. ”

Fudge looked a little embarrassed, if it wasn't for Charon's help, he wouldn't know what to say, "Things change often, Harry, in the current situation, we have to think about it, you definitely don't want to be expelled, right?" ”

"Of course not." Harry said.

"Okay, so why are you panicking?" Fudge chuckled lightly, "Harry, I think you'd be comfortable staying at Charon's house. There's only one thing, and I think you'll understand. You don't want to wander around Muggle London, okay? Just stay at Charon's house and don't go out, and definitely don't go out alone. You surely understand why. Ciel, will you keep an eye on me? ”

Charon hurriedly patted his chest to ensure that everything was fine. He saw that Harry was still trying to get to the bottom of it, and quickly pulled him back.

"Anyway, Harry, you have to be obedient!" Fudge laughed, "We'd better know where you are, I mean ......"

Fudge stopped and cleared his throat loudly, "Okay, I'm leaving, busy, you know." Come here, Mr. Charon, and I'll give you two words. ”

Charon followed Fudge's footsteps, some distance away from Harry, and Fudge stopped and turned to look at Charon. Charon knew something particularly unusual was happening. It is certainly unusual for the Minister of Magic himself to be involved in the use of magic by minors.

"Did you see it?" Fudge asked straight to the point.

Charon nodded, thinking to himself, what surprising news had the Daily Prophet had lately?

"Sirius Black has escaped from prison!" "He is the most notorious of the prisoners who have ever been in Azkaban Castle, and he has not yet been apprehended," said Minister Fudge, somewhat irritated. We are trying to recapture. ”

Charon seemed to remember something, it was a guy with a sunken face, long hair tangled together, and only a pair of eyes seemed to be a little angry on that sunken face. Blake has waxy white skin and looks like a vampire.

"That's a madman, he killed a street man in public!" Fudge gritted his teeth and said, "Blake is crazy. Anyone who encounters him is in danger, whether you are a wizarding or a Muggle. Now Harry is in danger, Sirius Black is a vicious Death Eater who betrayed Harry's parents back then! ”

Charon probably understood, but why did Blake pick on Harry?

"Blake is nervous," Fudge said excitedly, "Mr. Charon, this guy wants Harry dead. He thinks that killing Harry will put the mystery man back in power. The night Harry stopped the Mystery, Blake lost everything, and he had been alone in Azkaban for twelve years, so he had plenty of time to think about it...... Do you understand now? So protecting Harry is a very dangerous thing to do! Of course, as long as Harry doesn't leave your Shafiq family's castle, it's all right! ”

Charon nodded. It would be much safer for Harry to live in Charon's house! You know, even when the Dark Lord is at his worst, no Death Eater dares to come to the Shafiq family to make trouble, even Voldemort is afraid of three points, God knows what is strange in this necromancer family castle that has been passed down for thousands of years!

Seeing that Charon listened, Minister Fudge was also relieved, he was still very relieved about the Shafiq family castle, this place was safer than the Ministry of Magic! Minister Fudge said a few words and waved goodbye.

It was late when Charon returned home with Harry, and Ayagoth and Lisa were still in the living room, waiting for Charon to return. Both of them were a little surprised to see Charon bring Harry over, and after a brief understanding of what had happened, they welcomed him. It was too late tonight to clean up Harry's room, so he had to be wronged to live with Charon.

Of course, the main reason was that Harry was afraid that he would not dare to live alone in the rooms of Shafiq Castle, which had been uninhabited for hundreds of years, and which were filled with a mess of necromancers' collections. Harry looked at it and it would be weird if he could fall asleep!

Harry didn't feel aggrieved, and drank the hot milk brought by the elf Hull, and his whole body was warm and he felt much better. After thanking Lisa and Ayagos, and saying goodnight, Harry followed Charon to his room with his luggage.

When you reach the northwest corner of the second floor, open the door. Charon's room wasn't small, but he liked the bigger bed, and the elf Hull added a single bed to it, which made it look a little cramped. Harry put down his salute and sat down on his bed, which was a temporary lodging but he was satisfied, only much more comfortable than his uncle's attic.

"Hehe, Harry, my guest room hasn't been inhabited for at least a few hundred years, and I'm sure you don't like to live in a room where you can find bones and dried animal carcasses! So I can only wronged you tonight! Charon explained with a smile.

"No grievances! Just don't think I'm disturbing your life! Harry said quickly.

Charon looked at Harry with some hesitation on his face. He didn't say a word, which made Harry feel a little uncomfortable.

"What's wrong, Charon?" Harry asked, somewhat uneasily, "Did I make it difficult for you?" ”

"No, no, no," Charon shook his head quickly, "don't be foolish, I'm hesitating whether I should let you know something." The premise is that you must keep it a secret and not let my parents know. ”

Harry was a little confused, but nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then let you see the masterpiece I've been working on for more than a month!" Now that Charon had decided to tell Harry the secret, he began to show off his smugness.

He walked to the wall next to the closet, pulled out his wand, and said "O'Leary, open the door!" With a flash of wand, the wall magically began to become illusory, and after a few seconds, a portal appeared on the wall that only allowed one person to enter and exit.

Harry was stunned as he watched from the sidelines, he almost screamed, and quickly lowered his voice: "Charon, are you crazy?" We can't do magic outside of school, or we'll be expelled. ”

His admonition was met with Charon's smile, "Don't be stupid, Harry, those surveillance and warnings are bullying Muggle-born underage wizards. For us wizard families, we can't control it at all! ”

"I've studied the methods of the Ministry of Magic in my first school year, and they have put positioning charms on every little wizard, and every one of your wands is registered with the Ministry of Magic. In this way, the staff of the Ministry of Magic can find out which wand is casting the spell according to the monitored magic fluctuations, and then locate which young wizard is nearby, and then the Ministry of Magic will know which young wizard violated the ban. ”

"To be honest, it's a great project, and the whole of the British Isles is under surveillance. Although I don't know which Ministry of Magic is the handiwork, the other party is indeed extraordinary and majestic. However, it is not difficult for us to evade surveillance. ”。

"The first is of course to get rid of the positioning spell on my body, which is not difficult for me, but this way, the Ministry of Magic will soon find out. The second is to dispose of your own wand, so that the magic fluctuations cast are not traceable at all. You may not be able to, though. Of course, it's even better if you're good at wandless casting. But you probably won't be able to do that. The last way is to set up a formation in your own residence to stop the magic fluctuations from spreading. ”

"Of course, as long as it's a wizard family, because of the presence of adult wizards, this kind of monitoring is ineffective. Because the Ministry of Magic has no way of knowing whether it is a young wizard or an adult wizard who performs magic. So just in our Shafiq family castle, Harry, you can do whatever you want here, just don't tear down my house. ”
