"Professor Snape?"

When the living corpse party rushed to inform everyone that the humans who had been discovered in the eastern suburbs finally came to express their desire to see them, Hermione had already roughly guessed the identity of the visitor. In fact, since the previous decision to transfer the

From the moment Si and Alexander were sent out, she knew that Lu Ping and others, who had learned some of the situation here through their two children, would probably take advantage of the recent sea battle to make this trip.

After all, after the living zombie clan successfully negotiated a cooperation agreement with them, at least the southern half of the old Britain was much safer and more stable than when the disaster first occurred. Even if many outside forces have no way of knowing this, they can

Lupine, Bill and others who were at the Granger camp closest to the front line all knew about it.

And as members of the Order of the Phoenix who once dared to stand up from the darkness at the worst possible time and work together to fight against the forces of dark wizards, Luping and the others would never lack courage even if they lacked everything. When they knew clearly that they could restore contact with the front line,

Given the importance, unless Hermione and her party return early, this trip will always be inevitable.

Sure enough, when Hermione left Buckingham Palace with a group of friends and hurried through the ice cave tunnel to the entrance of the East Gate, she saw Lupine, Kingsley, and even Mr. Weasley in this group.

Among the teams who came to take risks.

However, even Hermione, who had foreseen it in advance, did not expect that what she saw at the front of the team would be Professor Snape! It must be said that this was much worse than when she found Weasley in the team.

My husband was even more surprised at that time.

Of course, Snape himself didn't care at all about the surprise on Hermione's face.

"Um."

While responding casually, Snape kept walking and soon strode past Hermione and others who came out. On the other hand, when passing by Harry, he walked straight forward as if he was always arrogant.

His eyes slanted slightly and he glanced coldly at the other party.

For a time, the friends who had attended Hogwarts all subconsciously felt as if they had the illusion of going back to school again.

But in the end, Snape's pace stopped...

"Huh?" He stood not far behind Neville. While Hermione and others turned to look over, he frowned slightly and looked sideways at the figure not far away and said, "You're not dead yet?

John Stewart.”

"Well," John stood in the ice cave, listening to Snape's harsh greetings, and smiled awkwardly, "I am... I do get lucky sometimes, Mr. Snape."

"snort."

Snape snorted coldly and stared at the other person deeply for a moment, but did not say anything more. Soon, he was again under the different expressions of John, Hermione and Lupine behind him.

Taking long strides, he passed by John and went straight into the depths of the tunnel.

After a few seconds of hesitation, Hermione heard Lupine, who had already walked to her side, casually say:

"If he walks in like this, nothing will happen, right?"

"It's okay," Hermione shook her head, "There aren't many side roads in this tunnel. Go straight to the end and you'll find the former Buckingham Palace. There's usually no danger in the palace. We've all been living there these days.

Of course, the main reason is that the living corpses are still very friendly at the moment, although... I don't know yet whether this is a good thing or not."

While she and Lupine were talking, Ginny and Ron had already walked over to Mr. Weasley, and each of them gave him a big hug.

Speaking of which, fortunately, Ron has become more and more familiar with his pair of alchemical prostheses recently. After putting on his pants, he didn't reveal his secret to his father whom he hadn't seen for a long time. But how can this matter be hidden?

How long, or in other words, when should we tell the other party, has become a difficult problem that must be faced.

Fortunately, Ron obviously did not intend to expose the fact that he had lost his legs right away - to be honest, it is a wonderful thing to see each other alive this time.

Everything can temporarily make way for this joy.

On the other side, while Harry was happy for Ginny and Ron, he couldn't help but look at the latter a few more times with some concern, and then he also walked over to Lupine and Kingsley.

Taking advantage of a break in the conversation between Lupine and Hermione, he couldn't help but ask:

"Where's Sirius? Didn't he come this time?"

Based on Harry's understanding of Sirius, the latter usually rushes to participate in things like this. Even if Lupine and others stop him, he will sneak in alone. So he searched around and found out.

After not seeing the other party's figure, Harry couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Fortunately, Lupine also knew very well what Harry was thinking. When he heard him ask about Sirius, he immediately reached out and pressed his head and rubbed it hard:

"Don't worry! That guy is indeed not here - he has other tasks. Although there are inevitably risks, it is definitely much safer than here."

"Ah, that's good...that's good," Harry breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "As long as everything is fine."

After a few minutes of simple conversation, the excited greetings between the Weasley brothers and their father came to an end. As the leader of the frontline team, Hermione finally set her sights on the Blois family who had followed Lupin and the others.

On the wizard team.

Hermione, accompanied by Lu Ping and others, followed the space slightly given by everyone and came to the leader of the other party.

But the next moment, before Hermione could speak, she heard the other party take the initiative:

"Quillot Blois, leader of the first advance team of the Blois family, I would like to say hello to you all! Nice to meet you, Miss Granger."

As he spoke, he reached out and shook Hermione's hand gently, and then continued:

"Currently, most of our Blois family's attention is focused on the second battlefield in the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark and other countries. However, the lady said that the source of this disaster is still here. If we want to end it all,

, we will eventually come back. Therefore, even if the spread of the second battlefield must be contained as soon as possible, the lady still asked me to come over and join Mr. Lupin and Mr. Kingsley's teams, and come over to take a look first."

"Miss Blois...?"

When Hermione heard this, she immediately thought of the Slytherin girl with silver hair who looked like an exquisite and cute doll. After some memories and contemplation, she looked at Quirrell again and nodded.

He nodded and said:

"The French Blois family has always been our ally and has given us great help in the past. Now that you need information, of course we will not hesitate to share it. In short... everyone, come with me! We

You can change places and sit down and have a good talk."
