Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1348: Trap
"Kevin, they're coming. I heard the apparition and we have to explain it to them."
In the house shrouded in night, the sharp alarm of the looking glass and the scream of the young woman suddenly came out, as if trying to make the group of uninvited guests outside hear clearly.
However, the young woman's scream was meaningless. As soon as the man named Kevin realized it, the door of his house slammed and was blown away by the late-night vicious guest.
Three rude strangers in cloaks, either Ministry of Magic employees or Death Eaters, burst into the room, and the windows lit up.
As soon as the owner of the house raised his wand, he was knocked out by the spell of the intruder. His wife covered her face and screamed in panic when she saw her husband lying on the ground, and the voice pierced through the night. It was far away, but he was quickly hit by the spell and passed out.
"Don't kill people."
Looking at the young couple who were knocked down and whose life and death were unknown, the leading man glared at his colleagues dissatisfied.
"Don't worry, they just passed out temporarily."
As if to prove her words, the woman in the cloak reached out and pulled the hair of the woman who fell on the ground. After slapping her several times in a row, she shrugged and said to their heads, "Look, she still has a reaction. , I will wake up in a while."
"That would be great!"
A voice suddenly sounded from behind the three of them.
The next moment, a red light lit up in the room, and the guy who was just so arrogant fell to the ground and passed out.
"Albert is right, it seems they are in a hurry!"
Fred signaled his companions to search for the loot, and he himself used the recovery spell to wake up the unconscious couple.
"You are the Order of the Phoenix!"
The face of the man named Kevin did not show the joy of being rescued. Instead, he looked at the person in fear, and kept moving back, as if the three people in front of him were infected with some kind of terrible plague.
"Oh, you know us, that's really..."
Angelina raised her eyebrows slightly, very dissatisfied with the reaction of the young wizard.
"Why, why are you..."
"Calm down, sir." Angelina seemed to have heard enough similar words, and interrupted impatiently: "You have already been targeted by the Death Eaters. Go to the Ministry of Magic for trial. Don't expect you to be acquitted, you will just be thrown into Azkaban, there are too many unlucky people like you locked up in that ghost place."
"Well, time is precious."
Fred glanced at his watch, stopped Angelina who was about to say something, and said bluntly, "You guys go with us first. Whether you want to hide first or want to escape from England, we will They can help you, which is much better than staying in Azkaban with the dementors."
"It's all your fault. If it wasn't for your relationship, how could that group of people target us!" Kevin's wife angrily shouted at the group of guys in cloaks in front of her.
In her opinion, these guys are no better than Death Eaters, and if it wasn't for the so-called Order of the Phoenix, their family would not have suffered such a disaster.
"We just saved you." The cloaked man reminded with a frown after searching the loot, "Or, if you think we have a good temper and won't hurt you, you can lose your temper at us at will, or I will let you You have a taste of the Cruciatus Curse."
The young couple shut up obediently when they saw that the man had raised his wand.
"What a bitch." The cloaked man sneered, put away his wand in disdain and said, "Let's go, they obviously don't need our help."
"If you don't need help." Fred paused, looked at the young couple, seemed to confirm the matter, shrugged and said, "Sorry to bother you, then we will rescue you immediately." Go."
"Hurry up and leave the UK with your valuables, and come back after this war is over. Don't expect the Death Eaters to let you off mercifully, they are already crazy now." Although Angelina hated the two, But he still gave his final advice amidst the urging voices of others.
Under the resentful eyes of the young couple, the three turned around and prepared to leave without hesitation.
However, Kevin, who secretly picked up his wand, suddenly raised his wand and cast a curse at the three of them.
"I don't know if you are all filled with **** in your head, and you still have fantasies about Death Eaters. It's really hopeless."
After using the Disarming Charm to knock the opponent's wand away, Fred looked at the young couple who had attacked them in disgust.
"Don't waste time, the Death Eaters will punish these two idiots instead of us."
"You..."
Looking at the backs of the three people leaving decisively, the young newspaper reporter couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but when he saw the three black wizards lying unconscious on the ground, he felt a deep uneasiness in his heart.
"What do we do now?"
The young woman looked at her husband with a face full of fear, but her husband didn't know what to do.
Are you really going to the Ministry of Magic to accept the so-called trial?
But he obviously didn't do anything!
And, will he really be imprisoned in Azkaban?
Kevin suddenly realized something.
They are actually right, do they really want to pin their hopes on the Death Eaters?
Are those evil guys really credible?
At this moment, the young wizard regretted it, but he had driven away those who could help him.
Agitated, apprehensive, restless.
Many negative emotions surged up all of a sudden, and the young wizard almost collapsed. He hated the wizard war that had brought disaster to them, hated the Order of the Phoenix that suddenly appeared and disappeared just now.
As for the Death Eaters, they dare not.
"Do you really want to stop pulling them?"
Angelina's voice came from the darkness, and the three of them did not go far, but went to join the three colleagues who were on guard around them.
In this critical moment, the Defense Association will naturally give priority to ensuring the safety of its own family.
"It's too late, and that kind of guy is not worth saving."
The sound of "cracking" sounded like firecrackers.
One after another, black wizards apparated and came, surrounded, and violently broke into the house. This was undoubtedly a premeditated ambush.
The young couple were just the bait of the unlucky ones chosen. The target was actually the rescuers of the Defense Association and the Order of the Phoenix, but their target had already left a minute ago.
"They obviously learned the lesson from last time, and they came here in one go. We are no match for them." Fred did not forget to remind his girlfriend next to him not to do stupid things.
Although there were six of them on their side, and with the advantage of sneak attacks and props, they could indeed defeat the group of dark wizards, but Fred would not let his own people take risks.
God knows if this group of guys will still be a trap. If more enemies continue to emerge during the period, they are probably really finished.
Fred does like excitement, but it doesn't mean he wants to die, especially the relationship with Angelina is rapidly heating up recently.
"It would be nice if there were mandrakes."
I don't know who muttered something, but got the approval of others.
Throwing Mandrakes into the crowd can probably kill the enemy in one go.
However, he doesn't have that thing now, and Albert doesn't like them using Mandrakes casually, because he is worried that the Death Eaters will start using that thing to deal with them, and the problem will become abnormal by then trouble.
No one wants to be knocked down by the cries of a mandrake one day, let alone lose their life because of it.
Perhaps it was because they didn't catch anyone, the group of people who came in a hurry looked very irritable, and finally vented their anger on the begging young couple. , Kevin and his wife were dragged out of the house like dead dogs.
"Did we harm them?"
Looking at the young couple being taken away, Angelina muttered softly.
"No, they harmed themselves. If they are willing to leave with us, at least their lives will not be threatened, and they choose to pin their hopes on the Death Eaters, so naturally they need to pay the price."
Looking at the young couple being dragged away by the Death Eaters, Fred curled his lips in disdain.
Honestly, he never thought of himself as a magnanimous person, especially after the other party tried to sneak up on them and trade them for forgiveness from the Death Eaters.
If a guy like that dies, he dies.
He knew that the couple was not targeted because of them, and they were not even peripheral members.
"There is no harm in letting them suffer a severe beating from society. If there is no major problem, the mysterious people will not kill people at will. They should be able to live until the end of the war."
These are words used by Albert to comfort people, and they are indeed true.
The mysterious man will not slaughter those innocent wizards at will.
After all, there are only a few wizards in Britain, and even fewer Muggle wizards. Those people are the foundation of his rule of the British wizarding world.
"Let's go, I always feel that this place is not safe, they are obviously eyeing us, next time it's better to bring more people, lest we really capsize in the gutter."
Fred beckons the others to leave,
They plan to go to the shelter first, which has really changed a lot in recent days.
"It seems that they rejected you?" Mr. Tonks looked at the six people who came back, and he didn't seem too surprised.
"Yeah, I thought we were the ones who killed them, and even sneaked up on us, thanks to the defensive cloak." Fred took off his hood and sighed helplessly: "Maybe, Azkaban can make that poor couple Calm down."
"Not only you, but Cedric's team was also attacked, but they managed to get away." Tonks reminded, "According to Mr. Anderson's instructions, this is the case for the time being, and there is no need to continue. Take a chance, he'll have Lee Jordan mention it on the radio, and help anyone who wants to leave the UK, or join us."
"Death Eaters are listening to our radio too?"
Actually, Death Eaters have long wanted to join the Defense Association team, but they never had the chance.
Albert doesn't accept any rags, except for some more reliable ones, most of them are peripheral members.
Moreover, even if they can sneak in, they will be seen through soon, although they haven't succeeded yet.
"I dare say that other people are definitely happy for us to stop. They always feel that their suffering is caused by us, and they don't think about who the mysterious person is. "
"They are just bullying."
Neville did not forget to thank the Wesley twins, and reminded them of Xenophilius Lovegood, hoping that they would remind each other to retreat as soon as possible.
"Isn't Lovegood going to hide?"
Fred was surprised. As a partner, he should be reminded immediately.
"Don't know."
"We have lost contact with him for the time being, maybe Lovegood is hiding." Tonks is not too optimistic about this, too many things have happened in recent days.
"Where's Luna?" Qiu Zhang asked with a frown.
"Luna is temporarily hiding in the Room of Requirement, and she should be fine for the time being." Neville kept in touch with Hogwarts.
When in trouble, just hide in the Room of Requirement, and the Death Eaters can only stare at the wall.
"Where's Albert?"
"He didn't reply, he seems to be busy with something these days."
"Go and see the situation first, I hope it's not a trap."
Under the influence of Albert, the members of the Defense Association became cautious.
No way, after understanding the mystery of sneak attack, they don't want to be attacked by others more than anyone else.
After a brief discussion, everyone decided to act together to see what happened to Xenophilius Lovegood.
For this reason, they decided to call on members of the Order of the Phoenix.
As long as there are enough of them, there is no need to worry about the Death Eaters at all without facing the mysterious person.
This operation only took ten minutes from formulation to execution, and the efficiency was unimaginably high. Even members of the Order of the Phoenix were very curious about why they could act so efficiently.
"Because of this." Fred shook the toy-like watch and briefly introduced its functions to everyone. "This is the latest achievement. We will wear it during operations for emergency contact."
It didn't take long for them to break into Lovegood's house under the cover of the Disillusionment Charm after confirming that there was no danger.
"There is no trace of battle, it should be withdrawn early."
Finally came to this conclusion after a cursory inspection of Lovegood's house.
"No, I've always been here."
A sudden voice ~IndoMTL.com~ startled everyone.
Everyone sees Xenophilius Lovegood appearing out of nowhere.
"Where did you hide just now?"
"There is a secret room protected by the Fidelity Curse. Two days ago, several dark wizards ran nearby, so I temporarily hid." Lovegood explained to everyone.
"We thought..."
"If it weren't for Mr. Anderson's help, I would probably have to be imprisoned in Azkaban." Lovegood said suddenly, "They seem to have seen through our trick."
"Would you like to go to our place temporarily, I always feel that this place is not very safe."
"Oh, that's fine." Lovegood hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I'm just a little worried about Luna's safety."
"Don't worry, Luna is safe, you should be able to meet tomorrow."
