Chapter 304 Temporary separation
The night Harry disappeared, almost no one slept well.
Kingsley went to Bones' house overnight to inquire about the situation, but did not come back all night; after some deliberation, the members of the Order of the Phoenix who could not wait for Kingsley sent Lupin, Mundungus and Tonks.
The three of them went out to look for Harry and inquire about the situation.
It wasn't until dawn the next day, when everyone dragged their exhausted bodies back to the headquarters, that they discovered that Kingsley had returned.
"The Bones family was attacked, and I encountered Death Eaters before I even got there..." Kingsley mumbled while taking a big bite of bread, "I reluctantly broke in to take a look. Bones
There is no one at home, as if it had been expected beforehand..."
"What should I do, Harry -"
Kingsley waved his hand towards Mrs. Weasley who was preparing breakfast, telling her not to worry. He took the milk and poured the bread in his mouth into his stomach, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"In this situation, no news is good news..." He said solemnly, "Whether Miss Bones expected it herself or someone else told her about the attack, she should be fine now——
"
"And the last person who came into contact with Harry was Miss Bones. Since Miss Bones has been prepared, Harry should be fine now... Of course, this is just a conjecture at best, and our search will continue."
"That's all we can do..." Lupine nodded, then turned to Mrs. Weasley and asked, "Where's McClane? Has he come out of the study?"
Mrs. Weasley stopped what she was doing, turned around and shook her head.
Not long after, Mrs. Weasley and Lena prepared enough breakfast together, and were about to go upstairs to wake up the children as usual, but found that they had already gotten up by themselves.
In other words, they only slept for three or four hours at most that night.
Harry hasn't come back yet, and Maka has been hiding in the study. Everyone can't let themselves sleep peacefully. Even they know that even if they are all awake, they can't do anything.
"Don't stand at the door! Go wash up and then sit down and have breakfast!"
Mrs. Weasley urged the children to improve their personal hygiene in a hurry. Hermione sat at the dining table uneasily, but she just stirred the oatmeal with a spoon, seemingly without any appetite.
"That guy Maka..." Ron sat next to him with an annoyed look on his face and complained in a low voice, "What on earth do you think he was doing in the study? Why did he block the door...and it happened to be when Harry was missing?"
when!"
"He must have a reason to do this!" Hermione pursed her lips and said.
"But Harry -"
"Stop talking! Can you be quiet for a while?"
Seeing that Ron wanted to continue speaking, Hermione interrupted him angrily.
Ron couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. He picked up the box of oatmeal and poured some into his bowl. Then he picked up the milk jug and planned to pour it into the bowl.
"Isn't there any movement in the study yet?" Lupine asked.
Fred and George on the side shook their heads at the same time.
"We just went to see it again..." Fred said
"It's still the same as yesterday, the spell on the door has not been lifted." George continued tacitly.
Then there was a period of silence as everyone ate breakfast without interruption. Only Lupine and Kingsley would exchange opinions softly from time to time. It seemed that they were discussing where to find someone for a while.
After everyone had almost half-filled their stomachs, Lupine, Kingsley and Tonks stood up again, planning to go out to search for traces of Harry.
"You also need to rest, we can change someone to go out..." Mrs. Weasley couldn't help but said.
"It's okay. I have to go to work today anyway. Before that, I'll go out and search for a while. It won't be too late to replace him then-" Kingsley waved his hand.
At this moment, Lena suddenly said: "I'll go guard the door of the study."
"……No."
Before he finished speaking, a familiar voice came from the kitchen door, causing everyone to immediately turn their heads and look over.
"I'm already down."
The one who spoke was Maka. He was standing at the door at the moment, looking at everyone calmly, and even smiled apologetically.
"...Kingsley, Lupine, Tonks, are you going to find Harry? No need to go, Harry has been taken to Hogwarts by Ms. Bones, and he is safe now."
"You guy, why-"
Sirius was interrupted mid-sentence.
"Sorry, I know you are all anxious," Maka said, "It was my mistake this time... I was the one who contacted Ms. Bones. Originally, I thought it would be okay to tell you later, but who knew -"
Having said this, he shook his head slightly and continued: "In short, you don't have to worry, everything here can be as usual."
To be honest, the moment they saw Maka appear on the first day of the new year, everyone's first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief. Then, when Maka calmly said that Harry was fine, their hearts that had been hanging in the air finally dropped.
Land.
But after that, all kinds of complaints came to mind.
"Maka, what have you been doing alone in the study for so long?" Among these people, Hermione was the most restless. "And you also enchanted the door of the study... why are you doing this?
Do?"
Maka smiled and shook her head.
"I encountered Voldemort's ambush at the Ministry of Magic..."
"You're hurt!" Hermione immediately screamed and ran to Maka, pulling on him here and there in a panic, looking for the non-existent wound, "Where is it hurt? Are you okay? Maka
...Are you okay?"
Maka stretched out her hand to stop her and said, "It's okay, I'm okay...Hey! Don't touch it down there!"
The others also reacted at this time. Although Maka said it lightly, their hearts became heavy when they thought that Maka would actually stay in the study all night before coming out.
"Is everything okay?" Lu Ping looked at him worriedly.
"It's okay, it's really okay!" Maka held down Hermione's arm, raised her head and said with a smile, "It can be seen from this sneak attack that Voldemort is already quite impatient... He always believed in strength before.
Supreme, but now he is also starting to use tricks..."
"Wouldn't that make it even harder to deal with?" Kingsley frowned.
"You can say that, but this is not necessarily a bad thing," Maka explained. "Once you put the hope of breaking the situation on the strategy, you will inevitably formulate a plan that is as perfect as possible... But in this world, there are no absolutes.
Perfect plan.”
Having said this, Maka shrugged and said: "I have failed because of this before, and now I am very glad that the plan did not go to the end..."
"All in all, if Voldemort continues to use violence to solve all problems as he did in the past, it will be very detrimental to the Order of the Phoenix - the biggest possibility is that both sides will suffer losses!" He finally said, "And now, we just need to find a way to deal with it.
Just make appropriate responses to Voldemort's actions..."
"So, tonight, we will gather the main members of the Order of the Phoenix and we need to re-formulate our combat strategy!"
…
Ms. Bones...or rather, Miss Bones, she is a very broad witch with a square chin.
Her short gray hair is actually very similar to Mrs. Hooch, the flying instructor, but she always covers it up with a hat.
She often wears a pair of spotless monocles, and the clothes she wears are always neatly tidied. She looks like a cold and noble upper-class witch.
She has worked in the Ministry of Magic for many years, and has also relied on her own ability to reach the position of Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. This is indeed not easy for a witch who has lost power in her family.
Incidentally, Miss Bones was sitting on the bench during Harry's examination.
To be honest, if we judge by first impression, it is actually difficult for anyone to think that she is from Dumbledore's side. Because she has always been unsmiling and merciless towards people and things. She is completely a typical Slater.
Forest.
Of course, in fact, not long ago, she was not a member of the Order of the Phoenix.
But even so, her fate with the Order of the Phoenix was determined from the beginning.
The reason is simple: her brother Edgar Bones was one of the founders of the Order of the Phoenix, and his entire family, including his brother, was killed by Voldemort.
Since then, the Bones family, which was originally a powerful family, suddenly plummeted and turned into the down-and-out family that is about to completely cut off its inheritance.
"Uh...Ms. Bones, aren't you staying?"
At the gate of Hogwarts Castle, Harry stood by the gate and asked hesitantly.
"I still have work to finish." Amelia had a cold face as usual, but her tone was very soft.
"But... you are also in danger now!" Harry said quickly, "those attackers last night -"
"My work is more important than my own life," Amelia said calmly. "If I hide because of fear, wouldn't that just leave an opportunity for Voldemort? I have to be there, understand?"
"
"Oh, but -" Although Harry still wanted to stop it, he finally nodded, "Ms. Bones, I thank you again for your help - please be careful!"
"Of course, I also thank you for your concern, child."
Amelia reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder, then decisively turned around and walked towards the school gate.
"I wonder how Ron and the others are doing..." Harry said, but he remembered his experience at Bones' house yesterday, and he couldn't help but feel a little more solemn.
Under the crazy attack of those Death Eaters, Harry deeply felt his own powerlessness, but it also strengthened his belief in trying hard again.
The warm wind blew across the lawn in front of Hogwarts Castle, making a soft rustling sound, but it was as peaceful as ever.
