Chapter 497: The Form of War
"yes, I understand--"
Amosta's merciless words didn't embarrass Remus, and he said calmly.
Remus didn't fail to take these issues into account, Hogwarts had Albus and Amosta, and with him both there, it was difficult for any conspiracy to get close to Harry, but that didn't mean he was willing to sit back and watch.
James and Lily, Peter, Sirius and himself, the few friends at Hogwarts back then, and now only himself and Sirius are still alive, and Harry, the child of Jaime and Lily, is the only descendant of these people, and Remus still wants to do something for him.
"The Ministry of Magic has issued a statement that the group that attacked the World Cup is just a group of dark wizards from abroad, and you and Albus are silent about it, but Sirius and I both know that Amosta, Harry's dream says a lot."
Facing Amosta's gaze, Remus said calmly,
"He's planning to kill Harry, and he's already taken action, although this operation was thwarted by you, but maybe the next operation is tomorrow, in short, he will do everything he can to kill Harry, and then continue his cruel rule, I can't know all this and do nothing, I stay in Hogsmeade, at least I can pay attention to some movements."
Remus has his own ideas, and he can act according to his own will, but Amosta still wants his actions to be more valuable.
"You're going to start a home in Hogsmeade with the joke products developed by those two naughty little guys, and you're going to pay attention to what's going on around Hogwarts, and you're always ready to take care of your life, Remus, I can help you say hello to some people in the Ministry of Magic and get the store on track as soon as possible, but this passive waiting is really limited, I have some ideas that need someone to carry them out, and I've thought about it carefully, and you're the right person."
Amosta said calmly,
"Of course, you can also refuse, Remus, I have no right to give orders to anyone but Filch."
"If you want me to be in the Ministry of Magic, I don't think it's very likely--"
Similar to Amosta or Albus, their wisdom and strength are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, and Remus can see that what Amosta is going to say may be very important and can play a pivotal role in the future, after a moment of hesitation, Remus said softly.
"Of course it won't be this-"
Amosta pursed her lips slightly,
"It's a complicated thing and it needs to be done in many stages, and this is the first step, and I hope you can take some time to do a market research for me."
"Market research?"
Remus immediately raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, while Sirius, who was pondering whether to enter the Ministry of Magic on the other side, raised his head and stared at Amosta with wide eyes.
"You're right, it's market research—" Amosta nodded, and he didn't sell it anymore, and said directly,
"I'd like you to take some time to do a bit of a careful market research on some of the items that all the inhabitants of the wizarding world can't do without in their daily lives, and after that, you'll need to find out which companies and workshops are producing these things, and the actual people behind them."
Sirius and Remus looked at each other, unsure of what Amosta was up to.
"But what does this have to do with Voldemort?"
Remus was still thinking about the deep meaning behind Amosta's proposal, and Sirius, who was eager, asked directly, but this time Amosta did not give a clear answer, and just said lightly,
"You have lived through the war years, Sirius, I think you must understand that war and duel are completely different, a duel is only the victory or defeat of two people, and war is a total confrontation, it exists in many forms, and armed confrontation is only one of them."
Not only Sirius was confused, but even Remus couldn't understand what Amosta was trying to say.
The social system of the wizarding world is relatively primitive, and Amosta does not expect Remus and Sirius, who have lived in the wizarding world since he was a child and are indifferent to Muggle society, to understand his intentions, but this step must be done, and if Remus is not willing to do it, he can only go into battle himself.
"Investigating the actual controllers behind the companies and workshops that produce the daily necessities of the people of the wizarding world is not too dangerous, but it needs to be well-informed and flexible, Remus, I think you have the ability."
Remus opened his mouth, but didn't speak.
Indeed, as a werewolf, in order to survive, he has been in the wizarding world for more than ten years, and he has been in contact with everyone, and he is indeed more suitable for doing this than Sirius, who has been in Azkaban for ten years, but.
"You think it's important, Amosta?"
Remus's brow furrowed.
"Against Voldemort, Dumbledore had his own plan, and I, too, had my own plan, and what I just told you was a very important part of my plan."
Amosta said calmly.
As mentioned before, his plan needs to be executed in many stages, and what he hopes Remus to execute at the moment is only the most basic part, and then things will be more complicated, and it can even be said that it is not too much to shake the stability and foundation of the wizarding world, and this is why Amosta clearly knew from Kakus Foley that the night of the Quidditch final night was caused by the masked wizard Lucius Malfoy, and still chose to forgive him part of the reason - this plan has a place where he needs to use the Malfoy family.
There was a dull crackling sound of raindrops hitting the glass window sash, and a chill gradually seeped through the rain-soaked mud.
Remus, who was in the midst of a weakened body after his transformation, felt a little uncomfortable, interrupted his thoughts, wrapped his robe tightly, and poured himself a cup of hot water from the teapot on the table.
Bang Bang –
Amosta stood up and snapped his fingers, and a vigorous flame suddenly ignited in the extinguished fireplace, which quickly dried the damp moisture in the air, and suddenly made people feel warm.
"You two can think about it carefully, you don't have to reply to me right away--"
Amosta didn't sit down again, he rushed to the fireplace, grabbed a handful of Floo powder from an open pocket above the shelf, and looked at it in his palm.
In the wizarding world, wizards who can apparition only account for a small group, and most wizard families travel collectively, so there are not many ways to choose, and using Floo powder is undoubtedly an important way for wizards to travel.
Amosta threw Floo powder into the fireplace, waited until the flames were turquoise, and then turned around and said,
"I'm not going to have lunch here, I need to get to London and drive back to Hogwarts, there's a bunch of things to attend to there, if you make up your mind, send an owl to bring me a letter, and I'll arrange the rest."
As he spoke, Amosta stepped into the fireplace and vanished in a burst of rapidly swirling flames.
"It feels like doing something for the Order of the Phoenix again—"
Looking at the recovery and quickly returning to normal flames, Sirius muttered.
"That's probably what Amosta intended--" Remus said slowly, rubbing his hair, "he's probably planning to get a new organization out." ”
