Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

The evening of April 30th

five o'clock

The "Aurors" have arrived at Shell Cottage - now, the helpers Scrimgeour is looking for, whether they have received Auror training or not, are temporarily called Aurors.

——

"Have you already eaten?" Fleur was a little flustered. She was still preparing and was surrounded by a lot of men. "Didn't you say we would leave at half past six?"

"Are you going to eat at six-twenty?" Scrimgeour asked, then looked at the followers behind him. "Let's go out and wait. It's too chaotic with a bunch of people crowded in the house. Hurry up."

At least two dozen powerful-looking wizards were standing outside the Shell Cottage, blowing the evening sea breeze, exchanging the final details of the mission.

Inside, the members of the Order began to eat their last meal before the war.

"Don't be nervous, why is no one talking?" Lockhart asked with a smile.

"There are so many people waiting for us outside, eat quickly!" Hermione said nervously, "Fleur, stop cooking. If anyone is hungry later, you can ask the elves in the Hogwarts kitchen to cook it for you!"

"Eat slowly, why are you in a hurry?" Sirius shook his head, "Eat quickly, we have to wait until half past six before setting off."

"Can we hold Hogwarts-" When things came to a close, Tonks also became nervous. Her and Lupin's child had already been placed at her parents' home. After months of hiding, it was finally time to fight again.

"Gilderoy has made arrangements. If things go well with the Ministry of Magic, we don't need to guard for long. If the Ministry of Magic fails to capture it -" Lupine said, "the Aurors will return to Hogwarts." , work with us to dispel the encirclement, and then gather wizards throughout Britain who are willing to resist the mysterious man to guard the new Ministry of Magic together."

"Well, the mysterious man has only controlled the Ministry of Magic for a few months, and there must still be many wizards who want to resist him." Lockhart said, "There are already nearly a hundred people who have verbally promised to help, although for the sake of confidentiality they have not until We don’t know our plans yet. But once the war starts, it’s always okay to come over and make up the numbers.”

"I want to take Qiu and his family to Hogwarts first." Harry, who had no other relatives, suddenly thought of his girlfriend.

"Um."

"You have to eat a little full. The spell will be powerful enough when you start using your hands later." Bill said solemnly. "Honey. Give me some more..."

"I want it too!" Albert also picked up the plate.

——

At half past six, everyone packed up their things. Fleur also finished washing the dishes, put them in the cupboard, and walked out of the Shell Cottage. He closed the door and stood with the entire Order and Aurors.

Whether things go well or not, they won't be back for a while.

"Let's go." Scrimgeour gave the coordinates of the destination and took the lead in apparating.

A few seconds later, everyone apparated one after another in a field outside Hogsmeade. Tonks accidentally stepped into a puddle, and Lupine quickly pulled her into his arms.

"You're already a motherfucker, and you can't even choose a revealing position!" Scrimgeour criticized dissatisfiedly, making Tonks blush with embarrassment. "Let's go, remember. Kill those who want to apparate, leaving a few alive."

——

Nearly forty wizards, including Lockhart, faced off against a dozen Death Eaters stationed in Hogsmeade, and the battle ended quickly. Those who resisted more fiercely were killed directly, leaving only two minions without the mark of the dark devil.

Many of the Death Eaters they killed may not be worthy of death, but they can't allocate manpower to manage the prisoners now, nor can they let them all go at the risk of providing vitality to the enemy... The two who are left behind are to be able to A wrong signal was sent to the Ministry of Magic: Scrimgeour appeared in Hogsmeade with all the "renegade Aurors", and all the power of resistance was here.

They threw the two remaining survivors on the roadside, waiting for the Ministry of Magic's troops to arrive maybe an hour or two later. Naturally they would be woken up and tell the wrong information that Lockhart wanted the Ministry to know.

Hogsmeade is now under the control of the Aurors and the Order of the Phoenix, and Aberforth is already waiting for them to use the secret passage in the Hog's Head pub.

"Hermione, be careful," said Lockhart. "You're not good at fighting. Just hide behind Sirius and Remus. You mainly need to take care of H.A. and watch over the Slytherin students."

"Be careful too." Hermione hugged Lockhart's waist tightly, her worry and reluctance clearly evident.

"Let's go, don't be romantic. The floo network here may be cut off later." Scrimgeour urged.

"Don't worry about him. I'm the only one here who wants to separate from my dear wife. Why don't you say a few more words?" Lockhart hugged Hermione in his arms and challenged Scrimgeour, "Why don't you wife?" Come to help?”

"But my son is here, where is your son." Scrimgeour smiled disdainfully.

"Maybe in Hermione's belly, maybe in his own..." Kingsley joked. "No matter what, I think it would be better for Gilderoy to have a daughter. Otherwise, I don't know how many girls he will harm in the future like his father."

"Hey...my son." Lockhart slipped his hand through the thin chain hanging around Hermione's neck, followed it forward to touch his Horcrux, pinched the golden ball, and then shook his head unconsciously - —If he can't find a way to lift the curse, he may never have children. "Okay, no more joking, let's compare the watches now, and then work on each other!"

Everyone who had a watch stretched out their arms and checked the time accurately. Then Lockhart let go of Hermione and took the lead in disapparating - he was going to wait for Snape near Thurso.

The "Aurors" also began to disapparate and dispersed to several cities near London. Later, they would go to London via Muggle transportation: if nearly thirty wizards all disapparated directly to London, Might alert Death Eaters in the Ministry of Magic's Traffic Control Department.

——

The two groups of people left as planned, and now only the Order of the Phoenix was left. Hermione also touched the little golden ball hanging in her arms. It seemed to still have Lockhart's body temperature on it. She hoped that this time the little thing in her hand would be pie. Useless. She did not let her thoughts run away, stuffed the Horcrux into her collar, turned around and followed Aberforth and others into the secret passage in the bar.

The secret passage was still so long and deep. When the members of the Order of the Phoenix walked through the last uphill section and entered the Room of Requirement, the castle where this room was located had actually fallen - all the Dementors were attracted to the place where "the Savior is said to be haunted" Wicked, there are only a few Death Eaters in the school, and the strongest one among them is a spy.

It was exactly seven o'clock in the evening when a group of people from the Order of the Phoenix arrived at the door of the school lobby under the surprised eyes of passing students.

Because Snape said that there would be a management meeting after dinner... so all the Death Eaters, including himself, were eating dinner on the staff bench.

Harry remembered Lockhart's request, suppressed the burning anger in his heart, and hid under the invisibility cloak without showing his head. When Sirius, Bill and others opened the door and appeared at the entrance of the cafeteria, Snape, who was sitting at the front, stood up instantly.

——

"You are so brave." Snape looked panicked. This was not easy. He had almost forgotten what panic felt like for more than ten years. "How dare you come here!"

All the Death Eaters stood up and pulled out their wands. The students eating dinner in the lobby also looked up at the door. After a period of breathtaking silence, there was a long series of gasps and low exclamations. From their mouths.

At this time, the two groups of people are still thirty or forty meters apart. Any wizard firing a spell from such a distance can easily avoid it, and attacking is a waste of magic power.

"Snape, even though you fully opened the castle's defenses, we still got in easily." Sirius said disdainfully, "Now, you can choose to surrender and accept our trial, or fight to the death."

"Only you?" Snape pointed his wand at everyone in the Order of the Phoenix and said through gritted teeth: "You were never my opponent when you were in school. You only dared to bully me if you brought your friends with you. Now, your friends are alone Dead, one betrayed you—are you still so arrogant?”

"I admit that you are a little better than me, but I will not challenge you in a one-on-one fight." Sirius looked around at the Order members behind him and led them towards Snape. "Traitors have no right to demand a wizard duel!"

Without further ado, McGonagall quickly drew out her wand, stood out from the group of professors, and shot a spell at Snape.

The hall suddenly erupted into exclamations and shouts, and the scene became chaotic. The students threw down their tableware, jumped up from their seats and tried to dodge to both sides - all the students knew that this time it was about to happen for real!

When the members of the Order of the Phoenix saw Mag, they couldn't help but take the lead. They also quickened their pace and rushed to the staff table.

——

"Stop her!" Snape showed a surprised expression and shouted to the other Death Eaters. At the same time, he waved his wand to block McGonagall's blow, pretending to be ready to attack her.

"Stop!" Professor Flitwick also rushed out of the crowd, raising his wand and screaming, "You are not allowed to kill anyone in Hogwarts again!"

Every professor is not an ordinary person, and Flitwick, as the head of Ravenclaw, is extremely powerful. His magic hit Snape's Iron Armor Curse and burst into a ball of light.

The addition of Dean Ravenclaw allowed Snape's plan to proceed ahead of schedule - originally he needed to negotiate with McGonagall before escaping, but if the two Deans Flitwick and McGonagall joined forces to attack, he Even if you take it seriously, you are no match.

He turned around without hesitation and turned into a black mist. In the gap between the spells fired by the members of the Order of the Phoenix as they ran towards him, he crashed through a window and flew away from the castle in a direction where he could apparate. go.

"This coward!" Sirius shouted angrily, but he was not ready to pursue him. Instead, he looked at the other Death Eaters who were stunned by Snape's escape. "Kill them!"
