Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2116: Sacrifice of glory

The atmosphere in the living room became more and more dull.

This is because, just now, after Arthur stopped Lu Ping with that "wait", he said something that made everyone present feel heavy.

"Percy's thing...should have happened for a while? Then I think...I probably already understand why you guys are hiding things from me and Molly. Yes! Remus, you guys The approach is correct...So, let me forget about it, but Molly must never know about this!"

This is what Arthur said just now.

To be honest, it doesn’t seem to be special at first glance, but if you think about it further-what selfless spirit is needed to say "I will forget it" shortly after the news of my son's death come!

There is no doubt that although Arthur has graduated from Hogwarts for many years, the raging flame in his heart called Gryffindor has never been extinguished.

He knows very well that under this disaster, the overall situation is more important than personal affairs.

After a long period of silence, Arthur seemed to have lost his strength, sat down on the sofa with a dejected face, and then lowered his head slightly weakly:

"Remus, just now you seemed to say...Percy was ‘sacrificed’? What else... ‘Defensive War’? Can you tell me more about it?"

"Of course."

Lupin nodded, then tilted his head at Kingsley and motioned:

"Go to the door and stare...Also, see where the Sirius guy has gone!"

Originally, he let Sirius be responsible for guarding the door, but he did so mainly to be somewhat defensive when Arthur and Molly came over. Who knows, he was obviously still there when Luna and Molly entered the house before, but when Arthur came in the end, Sirius was gone.

However, Sirius is certainly not such an irresponsible person, or rather, he is the kind of man who values ​​appointments with friends very much. Suddenly leaving right now... probably for a reason.

At this moment, Luna, who has been standing by and watching since just now, suddenly raised her hand and pointed in a certain direction:

"Sirius, it seems to be over there!"

"Huh?" Kingsley and Lupin subconsciously turned their heads along her arm, and then they heard the latter frown, "over there... is my house?"

"Maybe another secret letter has arrived?" Kingsley also stunned, and then said, "Then I will go find him first...Miss Lovegood, can you help me stare at the door for the time being? Just...If Mrs. Weasley comes, just remember to say hello to her loudly."

"Oh, all right!"

Luna nodded, and followed Kingsley away from here, and walked to the door.

At the same time, after all these things were arranged, Lupin told the sorrowful Arthur about the causes and consequences of Percy's death. Although he didn't know everything himself, especially the specific details of Weymouth's defense at the time, he still stated almost everything he could tell the opponent in an orderly manner.

In the whole process of Lupin’s statement, Arthur never spoke again, he just carved every word of Lupin into the bottom of his heart without saying a word.

A moment later, when Lupin had finished speaking, Arthur took a long sigh, and finally a faint gleam in his previously dim eyes.

"So that's it," he sighed softly, "Then, at least we can say that Percy's sacrifice is extremely glorious and worthy of pride for my father...Is that so?"

"It is natural." Lupin nodded his head affirmatively when he heard the words. "Even if Percy's contribution to resisting Helbo and resisting this disaster is not mentioned for the time being, it is only because of his last insistence. The lives of a large number of supporters and wizards saved are enough to make many people remember his name firmly."

Speaking of which. He couldn't help but pause for a while, and then he added specifically:

"In fact, among those who went to the Burrow from the camp of Cherbourg this time, a large part of the hands of the Harinas were thankful to Percy and stood up voluntarily to respond to Hermione and Luo. Thank them for their call!"

Obviously, Lupin’s last sentence was actually thought up by him. After all, as the only Luna who knows about the recent operation, she has never mentioned this to Lupin before. Kind of details.

But... if it's just used to soothe Arthur's heart, like this kind of insignificant white lie, it doesn't seem to matter a word or two.

"Really?"

Sure enough, after hearing this, Arthur couldn't help closing his eyes slightly, leaning against the back of the sofa and slightly raising his head. Not long after, a drop of crystal, which was not so conspicuous, slipped quietly from the wrinkles and gullies that had already appeared at the corner of his eye.

After a few seconds passed, Arthur wiped the back of his hand casually, and then sat up straight again, turning his head to look at Lupin who was sitting beside him.

"Has his...remains been found?" Arthur said very seriously, "Still at the Weymouth port? Or is it already brought back to the camp in Cherbourg?"

The question he asked immediately made Lupin hesitate again. However, after witnessing Arthur's selflessness and firmness at this time, he felt that there was no need to hide this question from him anymore.

"At the Burrow," Lupin replied, "Harry and the others have sent Percy to the Burrow for burial-according to Miss Lovegood, this seems to be Percy's last wish. 1. In fact, after they arrived in the Burrow in a group not long ago, they held a simple funeral and buried Percy."

"Wish...this silly boy~IndoMTL.com~Arthur shook his head and sighed, "So, does he have any other wishes? "

"Well, oh--"

Lu Ping couldn't help but sighed slightly:

"I want to say ‘other wishes’...I think that is probably the reason why the children would choose to establish a new base in the Burrow?"

As for this, the two finally seemed to have no idea of ​​continuing to talk, and both closed their mouths. Soon, it became quiet again.

But not long afterwards, the return of Sirius and Kingsley broke the rather depressing silence here again.

Sirius was seen taking strides and rushing into the living room. After subconsciously glanced at Arthur, although he immediately frowned because he noticed the strange atmosphere here, he immediately turned his head and looked at Lupin's side.

"Remus, it's a letter from Professor McGonagall!"
