Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2634: Bad news
()"...Has the third team of chant wizards landed? I know. Then notify Miss Carolina Viseu immediately, and ask her to prepare for the response, and wait for the chant Now that the regiment is in place, it's time to take Lochindorb Castle in one go - the protective magic and concealment magic attached to that castle haven't expired yet, it's a rare stronghold choice, take it down, that section of the defense line It will be stable."
In the largest room on the second floor of the temporary command post, Hermione was flipping through stacks of intelligence documents, without looking up, giving the latest command order to the battlefield liaison officer standing in front of the table.
It has to be said that she has gradually gotten used to this kind of work. Although the responsibility is so heavy that the pressure on her shoulders will definitely not be small, she has indeed done a good job.
This point is not difficult to see from the fact that most of the people she gives orders are very cooperative.
"Understood, Miss Granger, then I'll go right away." The liaison wizard finally said.
"There's still time, you can rest downstairs for ten minutes before you go... Besides," she raised her head with a pause at this point, "Remember to be safe when you're on your way."
"Thanks, I will."
After the liaison wizard responded, he turned and left from the door. Seeing this, Hermione bent down again, and turned her attention back to the various new or old intelligence materials on the table.
The news from the front line or the landing port on the east coast is actually not too frequent at present. At least the temporary headquarters office where Hermione is located is far from being busy.
After all, even now, long-distance message transmission over this disaster area is still a difficult problem with extremely limited solutions.
After a while, Hermione heard footsteps at the door again, and it sounded like there were three people.
"Is the additional fortification on the north side completed? Thank you for your hard work, please sit down for a while! I will finish the matter at hand soon..."
There is usually only one liaison officer to deliver information and listen to the latest orders, and with the current frequency, the chances of even two liaison officers meeting together are pitifully small, let alone three people appearing together Here it is. So she knew that no matter what she looked at, most of the people who came were from Hogsmeade village.
Because the work of adding defenses to the north was almost finished, so she blurted out without even looking up.
However, this time Hermione guessed wrong.
"Because another enemy missed the fortification, it took some time, so it probably won't be completed before dinner today. But I didn't come up this time to report work, after all, the defense thing doesn't return. I don't care... I just brought you an acquaintance!"
"Professor Lupine? Oh, who did you bring me—"
Hearing this, Hermione raised her head with a smile, but was stunned when she saw John beside him.
"Mr. Stewart?" She also asked in surprise.
"Heh, Miss Granger," John, who was brought here like a prisoner between Lupine and the strong Yegor, who was brought here like a prisoner, smiled wryly at her, " We meet again."
"Forgive me for being rude, but," said Hermione, "I thought it might take a while before we could meet again. I didn't expect... Did you encounter any accidents in the United States?"
"Oh, I failed to return to the United States." John still shook his head with a wry smile, "Actually, I can't even go out of this disaster land."
"What happened?"
Hearing John say that, Hermione realized that the matter might be a little serious.
At that time, they separated when there was no more danger. She, Harry and the others headed east across the strait to Holland, while John walked southeast to reach the coastline and left the cloudy cloud area for the shortest distance. Returning to the Americas—it was in the southeast coastal area of the disaster area that had been cleared away by Rebes's kin so far that not even a single enemy could be found. No matter how you think about it, it is impossible to encounter any trouble.
In fact, Hermione and the others left without anything happening. How could it be possible that at a time when the furthest distance from her was less than 10 miles, John would encounter an accident that would have trapped him in the disaster area until now?
However, when Hermione asked about the specific situation, John turned his head and looked at it with some hesitation.
It can be seen that Egor, who followed him and Lupine all the way here before, is still standing at the side of the door, quietly watching with great interest. Seeing John turn around, he gave him a smile.
"Oh! Is it something I can't listen to? Sorry sorry, I'm going out now!"
The big man Yegor, who seemed to have taken a pat to react, patted the back of his head with a smile, then looked at John again, and then took the initiative to back out from the door. Before leaving, he closed the door very intimately.
Lupine cast one casually, then turned around and frowned slightly:
"Matuseyevich family's attitudes are generally a bit uneven, and their actions are often inconsistent. You'd better pay more attention."
"Well, I know it." Hermione nodded, then turned her head to look at John again, "Professor Lupine is one of his own, so you don't have to worry. So... can we talk now?"
"Of course," John glanced at Lupin, and then he straightened his mind and said, "Actually... I met the second team sent by the 'family'."
"On the outskirts of London?" Hermione frowned suddenly ~IndoMTL.com~ Yes," John said with the same frown, "and, they all look a little...'not normal', so I didn't dare to take the initiative to contact. However, their perceptions are very keen, and I was just about to move away and make plans, but I was still discovered by them. Fortunately, they seemed to have other things to do at that time, and only sent two people to chase me. They chased me for a long time, but in the end I got rid of them. "
"'Not normal'?" Hermione couldn't help asking, "What kind of abnormal method?"
"Well," John paused for a moment before hesitatingly said, "Should I say...it is very similar to the Obscure? No, I think it may be more similar to your companion, Miss Grofeyn. One point, it’s just that the black fire mist they can control is far less amazing in terms of quality and quantity.”
"Silence?"
When mentioning the Obscure, Hermione immediately recalled many not-so-good memories, which made her frown even tighter.
"Mr. Stewart," she sighed, "you may have brought us some very bad news!"
