Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

∫｀?′?: “Do you know what you have done?”

(乛r··乛): "Didn't you tell us to take the hostages in exchange for Harry Potter, Severus?"

∫｀ロ′??: "But look, who are the three people you brought back, Igor!"

(乛r?乛): "I really don't know. Just give us a lesson, Professor Snape."

∫‵Pan'?: "They are all people who have a close relationship with Zhang Xu. If they are hurt, you can only ask him to make your death less painful, former principal Karkaroff."

(乛rü乛): “Since the hostages are so important to him, then it’s just right for him to trade Harry Potter for the hostages.”

∫－＿－?: "I'm afraid what he brings is not a hostage then."

(乛r?乛): "Will he bring Aurors to save people? The Aurors are all in Hogsmeade now, and they don't have this time."

In the Office of the Minister of Magic, Snape and Karkaroff were arguing about the hostages captured in the just-concluded operation.

He was very angry when the "Lily" in the pot flew away. When he returned to the Ministry of Magic, he found that Karkaroff and several other Death Eaters had imitated him and captured three hostages. When he saw the three hostages in the dungeon cell, he immediately felt that something was wrong. But they failed to catch Harry Potter in the previous operation, so they would definitely be punished by Voldemort. The best thing at the moment is to find a way to send the hostages back before someone goes crazy.

Moreover, Snape is in trouble now and can't tell. He just mistakenly kidnapped Harry as Lily, but later found out that the person in front of him was Lucy Scamander from the United States. In a trance, Let the other party escape. And it’s hard to explain this to others. Could it be that I arrested her not because I wanted to capture a hostage, but also because she looked like the goddess in my dreams? Voldemort was using him to make snake feed in a matter of minutes.

Therefore, Snape could not completely deny Karkaroff's approach, so he could only quarrel with him and write a letter to Zhang Xu asking him to bring Harry to replace him. Although he knew this situation was impossible, he had to do something. We can't just put the hostages back just like that. We all have to at least stage a show of exchanging hostages and then become the other party rescuing the hostages and eventually losing ourselves.

Just when Snape was about to tie the letter with the time and place of the hostage exchange to the owl's leg, there was a violent vibration under his feet.

??Dividing line??

The way for guests to enter the Ministry of Magic is through the telephone box on the deserted street and down to the central foyer on the eighth floor of the Ministry of Magic.

Then go to each floor through the elevator in the elevator hall behind the foyer.

In addition, it is possible to enter the Ministry of Magic's central foyer by using Floo powder on a connected fireplace.

The invasion plan formulated by Zhang Xu was very simple. Everyone first went to Gringotts to collect the labor fee with a check from Zhang Xu, and Zhang Xu himself went to the phone booth leading to the Ministry of Magic and said he wanted to find Snape. At the last moment, he filled a phone with "Mrs. Adams's Gifts" "Throw the bag in the phone booth and let it go down alone, and then run to Gringotts in time. After returning to Gringotts, everyone took the time to enter the central foyer of the Ministry of Magic through the fireplace here.

It has been less than two hours since Voldemort led the Death Eaters to capture this place. Voldemort has already taken most of the Death Eaters to Hogsmeade for encirclement and suppression. All ordinary staff have been evacuated, so there are only those who are working here. The outside Death Eaters celebrating their victory.

In the central foyer, a group of Death Eaters from all over the world were reveling around the golden fountain in the center of the foyer. Several people tried to knock the fountain over.

The next moment, the elevator leading to the phone booth on the ground arrived here. It opened the door automatically and exploded with a "boom".

The huge shock wave carried countless steel balls with a diameter of only a few millimeters and rushed towards the Death Eaters in the central hall. The few Death Eaters standing on the outside immediately became a hornet's nest, and many people were knocked over by the shock wave. On the ground.

Many Death Eaters reacted immediately after the explosion and hurriedly pulled out their wands and pointed toward the elevator.

When these Death Eaters focused their attention on the elevator entrance, which was blown beyond recognition, a green flame lit up in the fireplace behind them, and then a figure rushed out of the fireplace.

?Appearance BGM?

He's coming, he's coming!

Spells roared where the smoke rose.

He's coming, he's coming.

The earth shook as soon as the magic came out.

The dough-rolling wand sweeps away the enemy lines,

The Death Eaters were so frightened that they fled.

?Appearance BGM?

( # -`ω′-)つ━?????????

Zhang Xu, who was the first to appear in the center of the hall, raised his wand and pointed it at the Death Eaters. Behind him was a burst of Divine Edge, Pegasus Meteor, and Shadowless Death Eaters. In an instant, the Death Eaters with their backs to him were divided into several pieces.

(｀ω′)つ━a bright ball┈?)乛З乛)

The Death Eaters who noticed something strange happening behind them turned around one after another. As a result, many of them were hit by fireballs in the face.

( @? @)( @_ @)( @Д @;)

Several fireballs suddenly exploded in the middle of the group of Death Eaters. After a burst of bright light, these Death Eaters were all blinded by the dazzling light.

At this moment, green flames surged in several fireplaces at the same time, and then many people came out of the fireplaces together.

Facing the blind Death Eaters, no one from the multinational force who came to rescue the hostages showed mercy. Two minutes later, there was no longer a single Death Eater alive in the central foyer and elevator hall.

The people present were all battle-hardened, and no one felt any discomfort with this scene of corpses strewn all over the place.

If we had brought Ron and his students here today, we would have to spend a lot of time providing them with psychological counseling.

"Quick! Load the fireplace and elevator with bombs." Zhang Xu, the action commander, ordered.

According to the plan made in advance, except for leaving one as a backup escape route, all the fireplaces here were equipped with bombs specially made by Mrs. Adams. As long as someone enters the fireplace through the Floo powder, these bombs will destroy the fireplace together with the visitors. Blow up.

The bombs in the elevators are different. In addition to leaving one elevator for your own use, there are booby traps installed at the entrances of other elevators. They will explode when the elevator doors are opened, and it was one of the booby traps that exploded. When the time comes, others will explode along with it.

As a result, when Snape and Karkaroff took the elevator to the eighth floor, they were warmly welcomed by the bombers.

Fortunately, Snape remembered some of Zhang's behavior and cast an iron armor spell on himself in advance, otherwise he might have to explain here today. The shock wave of the bomb pushed him backwards, causing Karkaroff's ribs standing behind him to be almost completely broken.

The elevator car of the Ministry of Magic is not spacious, and it was very crowded when Zhang Xu and his party were all standing in it.

This has led to the current situation where Zhang Xu and Mrs. Adams are face to face.

Mrs. Adams blew gently on Zhang Xu's neck, and then said: "Little handsome boy, let's go have a drink together after this time."

Although Mrs. Adams's voice was not loud, this was in the elevator, and everyone present heard it, and many people whistled.

It seemed that the elevator soon reached the ninth floor, and the group was about to face the biggest challenge of their operation, so Zhang Xu was able to escape from an extremely embarrassing situation.
