Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2009: The Old Order of the Phoenix Reunited
Under Charlotte's notice, everyone came to Aberforth one after another in advance, and sat up around the dining table as usual.
Of course, except for the Weasleys.
"Remus...what the **** happened? What news did Sirius get when he went to Boothbarton?"
Just sitting down after Tonks came over, he couldn't help but glanced at the back of Sirius over the bar, then asked Lupin quietly.
However, Lupin shook his head in response.
"I don't know either," he frowned. "I asked as soon as I came over, but he only said to wait for everyone to come...but in short, it's definitely not a good thing!"
This pair of couples with a slightly older age gap has obviously become more and more accustomed to getting along recently, and Tonks hasn’t had the impulse at the beginning, and the feeling when the two are together has obviously become unremarkable A lot. However, perhaps it is precisely because of this plainness that it makes people feel that the relationship between the two of them is getting stronger and stronger.
Speaking of this disaster, it may occasionally bring some benefits to people-at least if there are not so many terrible and annoying things constantly attracting the attention of two people, they might not be so naturally. They adapted to each other's existence.
Now, hearing Lupin say this, Tonks couldn't help sighing, a trace of sadness flashed across his face.
"Oh...poor Weasley, I hope it's not too bad-they won't be able to stand it."
"Who didn't want this?"
Lu Ping took a sip of his wine, followed by a light sigh, and then naturally put his arm around Tonks's shoulder and kissed her lightly on the forehead.
"Let me have a sip too."
Tonks reached out to get his glass, but Lupin hurriedly covered it and pressed it.
"Don't drink it...I don't want everyone to enjoy a murloc opera performance anymore, especially in today's situation!"
"Hey!"
When Tonks heard it, she glared at him, but after that, she finally gave up her intention to drink. Because in fact, she had been drunk once before. That scene... Even though she couldn't remember at all afterwards, just listening to Lupin talked about it, she even wanted to die.
As for Lupin’s "murloc opera" metaphor... Obviously, the murloc’s song is ethereal and sweet in the water, but if it’s on the shore, it's comparable to the screams of Mandela grass. In addition, Tonks is a natural disguise Magnus. Once drunk, even if his long hair changes color and has no wind, it is really not like the murlocs in the water.
So, although Tonks is not completely invincible, but when I think of her drunk appearance...Oh! She should quit drinking completely!
As the "little" couple whispered to each other, the seats around the dining table were gradually filled-yes, except for the seats of the Weasleys and the ones sitting alone at the bar. Beyond Sirius.
"Okay, go there too!"
Seeing that Charlotte, who even went out to inform everyone to come, came in from the back door and returned to the bar. Aberforth suddenly reached out and patted the table in front of Sirius, and then went to the dining table. Point out.
"Oh, are they all here?"
Sirius's alcohol volume is still very good. While waiting for someone to come here, he drank a lot of Aberforth's wine alone. But... a good amount of alcohol has its advantages and disadvantages, that is, when you want to get drunk once in a while, it seems that the more you drink, the more sober you are.
"Pattern."
Putting the cup on the bar, he finally got up, turned back and sat down at the table where he always sits. Then, from left to right, he let his gaze sweep across everyone's faces one by one.
"Anyway... I'll talk about one of the biggest reasons for calling you in advance today! Lest Arthur and his wife also come in a while, I haven't had time to say it-it won't be easy to say then. ."
At this point, Sirius waved his hand immediately:
"Percy is dead."
Before speaking, there was a dead silence in this slightly dim room, as quiet as an inexplicable buzzing sound in my ears.
After a moment of silence, a voice finally took the initiative to break the silence.
"Why Percy?"
The one who spoke was Lupin.
To be honest, he had already guessed some possibilities when he saw Charlotte before and heard the other person's reminder not to disturb Arthur and Molly.
Even...maybe because of the many judgments and decisions made with Maca in the past! He seems to have acquired some of Maca's habits-always like to imagine the worst possible beforehand.
Before that, Lupin had subconsciously foreseen many possibilities. The death of a certain person or even a few people was one of the conclusions.
However, no matter how he thought about it, he never expected Sirius to tell the news of Percy's death.
Speaking of danger, the most dangerous must be those who are on the front line. Although their strength has long been stronger than ordinary people, the crisis they need to face is obviously much more terrifying than others. In addition, Weymouth, where Percy is located, was relatively safe at least until this time.
However, Percy died, and died in front of many people.
"Because there has been a more severe change in the British land than before!" Sirius said, "Actually, this time I not only met Mrs. Maxim in Boothbarton, I I also met two young witches~IndoMTL.com~ They seem to be friends of Maca. Recently, they have been in Winchester Cathedral, and they have just returned from the UK until today."
"Who are these two people? We don't know them?" Kingsley on the other side couldn't help asking.
"Actually, I can't say that I don't know each other at all." Sirius shrugged and said, "Geoffee-Kingsley, you should know."
"The prophet family in Northern Europe?"
"Yes," Sirius nodded. "It's the Geoffeyin who was regarded as the head of the Nordic dark wizards at the time. The dark wizards can stay there for so many years, and this family of prophets has contributed. No. And now... the pair of witch sisters I met in Boothbarton, one of them is the prophet of this generation."
At this point, he paused for a while before turning to:
"I think it's probably for this reason that Maca came to them. The sisters seemed to have done a lot to help deal with the army of living corpses in the UK-of course, I just listened to them. What I said, the specific situation may have to be discussed later."
