Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 1176: No one’s broken cauldron bar
Boom, boom, boom—"
A knock on the door suddenly sounded on the streets of London, but even if Ginny knocked her hand, it hurt, but the familiar door was still no one looked at.
No, there was not even the most basic response, as if there was no one on the other side of the door.
"...Hermione? What should I do?"
The broken cauldron bar that has always been full of voices, but now it seems that no one is there. The black oak door of the bar was so closed that even if someone knocked on the door, there was no response.
It's like, even Tom, the owner of the bar, has gone away from it.
"Maybe it was to prevent the fog from entering Diagon Alley, so the Ministry of Magic simply blocked it?" Hermione thought for a while, but quickly shook her head, "No, logically speaking, it should be here. They will become temporary shelters—when the disaster happened in London last time, the Broken Cauldron Bar and St. Mungo were the only two shelters in the city! No matter how you think about it this time, you can't suddenly decide to lock down. "
After thinking about it, she simply stretched out her wand and aligned the tip of the wand to the position of the door lock, planning to try to open it from the outside first.
To be honest, Hermione didn't actually have much confidence in unlocking.
However, it was just a simple "Alaho Cave Opening", and the door of the Broken Cauldron Bar opened with a soft "click".
"Huh?"
A few of them saw that the door was opened. Although they thought it seemed to be going too well, they walked into the bar in a hurry.
Wait to enter it and observe for a while, this time it is finally unsurprising-from the bar to the small round tables for serving guests, there is indeed no one in the bar, and the whole bar is in a rare dead silence.
It's worth mentioning that the closed door seemed to be closed only after the fact, because the bar was also filled with quite dense fog. It's just that the amount of fog is not as much as it seems to cover the sky and the sun outside.
In order to keep the gray fog from coming in, so as not to reduce the visibility in the bar, Hermione closed the oak door with her backhand.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Luna stretched her neck, and she frowned as if she was smelling something as her nose closed slightly.
"Do you smell anything?"
"What?" Ron also sniffed, but before long he scratched his head questioningly, "No? Hmm... If you have to say it, it smells like alcohol? And the old Tom kept getting rid of it. The musty smell..."
However, Ginny frowned immediately next to him.
"Is there a strange smell, like...blood?" Her expression became more and more serious, and her heart became more worried.
This is, Hermione also raised her eyebrows and greeted several friends:
"I can smell it too. Is it coming from the stairs? Someone may be injured...upstairs! Let's go up and see..."
Looking at the three girls, it didn't take long for them to determine the direction of the smell, and ran up the stairs leading to the guest room on the second floor. Ron couldn't help but froze in place.
"Is my nose broken? Or are girls naturally more sensitive than boys?"
Of course, the current situation didn't have much time for him to think about this kind of problem, but after a short pause, he also hurried to catch up.
And when a few people quickly climbed the stairs and ran to the corridor on the second floor, the large blood stains left here immediately proved that Luna and others' sense of smell was indeed correct.
Although the bloodstains in this corridor are beginning to solidify, it is obviously not left in a short time, but the blood volume of several pools makes the disgusting smell still a lot.
Someone has been injured here, it seems that the injury is not minor, and... it is likely that there will be more than one person!
As soon as they saw so many blood stains that had turned dark red, everyone immediately took a step back with some discomfort, and then stood in the corridor for a while and looked at each other.
"It seems that London is more than just foggy..."
Since they flew directly on Hermione's flying broomstick, they didn't encounter any obstacles from dark wizards along the way, so until now, everyone realized this under the reminder of these bloodstains.
"All in all, take your wands! Let's open the doors of the room and take a look!"
Hermione stared at the shocking bloodstains, spoke to everyone without looking back, and then walked towards the door closest to the stairs.
Like the bar door downstairs, none of the doors of these guest rooms has a protective curse, and they are basically opened easily with an unlocking curse.
They even discovered that there are two doors that are simply open, and the contents inside are extremely messy. It can be seen that the guest living here must have gone hastily.
Unfortunately, apart from these circumstances, it seems that no more valuable information can be found. Including when they went back downstairs and searched as thoroughly as possible, they didn't get any more gains.
"Go to Diagon Alley...I hope there are at least people there."
After seeing the misery of the Broken Cauldron Bar, they now only hope that Diagon Alley will not be the same as the bar, no one can be seen. If there are no people there, they really don't know where to go.
After a while, the four of them came to the backyard of the bar, keeping a certain degree of vigilance. And they immediately saw that the magical courtyard wall was wide open, and one could directly see the streets of Diagon Alley when standing in the courtyard.
When they saw this scene, the hearts of the few friends felt like a sink-it was clear that Diagon Alley was invaded, and it seemed to be forcibly opened and destroyed the magic as the entrance. Brick wall.
For a moment, Hermione was the first to recover. She quickly signaled everyone to stop speaking, and then took the other three people lightly and walked to the side.
After they all leaned against the wall to hide, Hermione pursed her mouth and poked her head slightly, and glanced hurriedly into the diagonal alley.
"How?" Watching Hermione shrink back, Ron quickly lowered his voice and asked.
Hermione blinked as she watched him, then shook her head with a weird expression.
"I think...Let's just go in!"
"Huh?"
Ron didn't react before he saw a man suddenly walked in outside the open courtyard wall, but he was frightened and hurriedly raised the wand in his hand.
"Why are you here?"
No one thought that Sirius actually came in.
I saw that he just casually looked at the wand pointed at him, and then continued to speak:
"It’s very dangerous right now. There are a lot of dark wizards walking around in the fog and hurting people... I don’t know how you came here, but I think you’ve seen it. Even Diagon Alley was attacked. ."
"Then...what's the situation in Diagon Alley now?" Hermione asked immediately.
Sirius shrugged when he heard the words.
"For the time being, I have beaten those guys back once, now there is no one outside, right? But I guess they should come again... Don't stand here and talk, come here first!"
After that, he turned around and walked back, Hermione and others hurriedly followed.
As soon as they entered the street in Diagon Alley, Ron and the others understood why Hermione's expression was so weird just now.
It turns out that there are many Aurors and Black Wizard strikers standing on both sides of the back of the courtyard wall. With her previous probe, she must have found herself being watched by a large group of people.
Oh, it must be very subtle when I want to come!
Among these people, they also saw a few familiar figures, such as Tonks and other members of the Order of the Phoenix, who had had several bonds in the past.
While following Sirius inside, Ginny suddenly couldn't help asking:
"Sirius, is Percy here? Or has he been here?"
"Percy?" Sirius paused, before he suddenly said, "Oh, is your brother Percy Weasley? No, he has never been here...at least since we came here to stay. And have never seen him."
Speaking of this, he turned to:
"Your parents have been here, saying they came to find two sons and daughter-in-law. Because the current London is indeed perilous, I originally wanted to keep them, but both of them insisted on leaving. To ensure their safety, I also sent a few Aurors to accompany them to find someone..."
"Oh! Thank you, Sirius." Ron said gratefully.
When Sirius heard this, he waved his hand indifferently and said suddenly:
"By the way, don’t go anymore—the magical power of those dark wizards is a bit unexpected, and I can’t break up anymore. As for finding someone, I’ve already contacted Lupin, and he will Arranged for others to search."
"Oh, but—"
Ron was about to say something, but Hermione tugged his clothes secretly, causing him to stop suddenly.
"We got it."
After Sirius temporarily placed them in a nearby cauldron shop~IndoMTL.com~ Ron watched him leave, and then looked at Hermione with some doubts.
"Why didn't you just talk to Sirius directly?" He said, "As you know, Sirius is different from other adults. He has never opposed our actions."
"Because of this, I won't let you talk to him in detail," Hermione glared at him. "Didn't you hear all of them? He has not enough manpower here. If we speak clearly To leave, it will only make him feel embarrassed! You said, if he separates out for our safety, and then he is in danger because of insufficient defensive strength..."
"Ah! That's really not so good," Ron nodded immediately, "So...what shall we do next? Are we leaving?"
"Of course," Hermione said, "After all, Percy's situation must be terrible now! But before I leave, I want to find someone to ask about the situation-remember what Sirius mentioned just now? Outside? There seem to be many very dangerous dark wizards!"
