In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

The eyes of Lupine and others turned to Jon.

To be honest, since Jon has become younger, his current appearance does not always give people a very reliable feeling. After all, a six-year-old child stands in front of you and says that he can pursue the current situation in the magical world. The wizards are among the best in terms of strength. A normal person's first reaction would be that this kid's words are really funny.

But Lupine and the others certainly wouldn't take Jon's appearance as reality.

It can even be said that Jon's current appearance is the best deception. No one will be wary of a child who looks like he has not yet entered a magic school.

After hearing Jon's words, Dumbledore immediately spoke.

"If Jon is following you, that's no problem. We can't send many people to the UK, but you can pretend to be a mother and son. Such a combination will not be conspicuous in the UK, and no one will suspect the wizards on the witch flat line. A child will be sent to go deep into the enemy camp."

Lily turned to look at Jon. Of course she knew what kind of feats Jon had done in the just-concluded Triwizard Tournament.

It can be said that in the current Order of the Phoenix, no one is credited with greater contributions than him in fighting Voldemort.

"If Jon doesn't feel like he needs some time off, that's fine with me."

Jon shook his head at that.

"There was a long period of free time in the middle of the Triwizard Tournament. I didn't feel tired and didn't need to rest. And although my body has become smaller now, my magic power and physical fitness have not changed much, so I went to England. no problem."

There was nothing wrong with either of them. Dumbledore finally looked at Lily and said extremely seriously.

"I have one more request. If your actions in tracking Snape in the UK don't go smoothly, you can discuss it under ordinary circumstances. But if you encounter something very urgent, you must listen to Jon."

Lily nodded in agreement without hesitation.

It wasn't that she had any straightforward trust in Jon, but that she couldn't wait any longer. Every extra second spent here might allow Snape to escape completely, so now she would agree to whatever request Dumbledore made.

Dumbledore also saw that Lily's patience had reached its limit at this time, and he said nothing more.

"Let's go. Remember, if you delay for a long time in the UK and you need a legal identity, go to the Magic Joke Shop in Diagon Alley to find the owner there. He is our new base in the UK."

Lily stopped staying, she grabbed Jon's hand, and then disapparated with Jon on the spot, disappearing from this Auror station.

Only Dumbledore and Lupin were left at the scene.

But at this time, both Lupine and Moody felt that Dumbledore's decision to allow Lily and Jon to go to England was a bit hasty.

They didn't know the secret about Jon's Animagus. Although the fact that Jon turned into a six-year-old child after participating in the Triwizard Tournament had been spread throughout Europe by the magic newspapers, there was no such thing. People think that he can turn into a phoenix and be resurrected. Many people speculate that Jon may have used some special magic in Hogwarts Castle to cause him to become like this.

Therefore, even if they did not doubt Jon's strength, they were still uneasy about whether Lily and Jon could guarantee their safety if they went deep into England like this.

In this regard, Dumbledore did not give much explanation. He just let them go about what they should be busy with and at the same time blocked the news of Snape's escape from prison, so that there could not be any outside news.

Fortunately, this place is the core station of Wuping Line. The people who stay here are all trustworthy wizards, so there is no need to worry about the information leaking out so quickly.

After Lupin and the others left, Dumbledore looked to the west, not knowing whether he was talking to himself or to someone.

"What a hateful and pathetic love."

Lily's hands were cold, something Jon had felt when he was 11 years old.

At that time, he needed to choose between Barty Jr. and Lily. Although he had not yet fully verified Lily's identity, after learning Barty Little's name, he chose Hogg without hesitation. Watts carriage.

From that moment on, his fate was deeply tied to Dumbledore and his group.

Therefore, even though he never showed it openly, Jon had always been deeply grateful to Lily in his heart.

At that time, they risked their lives to snatch the students away from Voldemort. For them, they might just think that this kind of behavior was a kind of duty, but it was such a completely selfless act that pulled Jon out of the bottomless abyss. out.

Otherwise, even if Jon discovers that Barty Jr. is a dangerous person, he will not be able to escape that fate.

So even if Dumbledore didn't ask him for help in advance, Jon would not refuse to accompany Lily on this trip to England as long as she needed it.

After the Apparation landed, they came to a dark and closed cabin.

Lily seemed really eager to catch Snape with her own hands, but this eagerness did not make her lose her mind.

"Your current appearance has already appeared in newspapers. Even if the child's appearance is not very recognizable, you still have to change your appearance slightly."

As she spoke, she took out a bunch of bottles and jars from the pocket of her robe, and quickly found a bottle of transparent ointment. Lily poured all the ointment into her hand, and then poured it on Jon's head. I applied half of it and put the rest directly on my head.

"Apply all these hair dyes evenly. It will change your hair color to chestnut. This will look more realistic than the transfiguration. At the same time, it will last for a long time and cannot be washed away by ordinary washing."

The effect of this agent is indeed miraculous. It is transparent and sticky when it comes into contact with human skin. Once it comes into contact with hair, it will adhere smoothly to the hair and directly dye the hair chestnut, which is also true. Because of this, Jon and Lily quickly changed their hair colors to make them more like a mother and son.

All Jon needs to do is change his hair color a little, and nothing more is needed.

His appearance is the only one that has been reported in newspapers recently. His face is not very distinctive for children. In addition, in the past five days, as Dumbledore said, his body has grown much faster than the normal growth cycle. His appearance has changed a lot compared to a week ago, so even people who are familiar with Jon are not sure that it is Jon unless they stare at his face carefully for dozens of seconds.

Lily, on the other hand, needed more preparation. She used those complex potions to make her appearance younger, making her look less than thirty years old, which was more in line with the appearance of a mother and son of Jon's current age. set up.

At the same time, he lengthened his hair and changed the color of his eyes from the obvious turquoise to the same eye color as Jon.

Just one minute later, she seemed to be a completely different person. With Jon by her side, it was easy for people to subconsciously think that she was a young mother.

But no matter how her appearance changed, the cold aura exuding from Lily still remained unabated.

"Walk."

After making all the preparations, she took Jon and left the cabin.

Only then did Jon realize that they were actually in Knockturn Alley.

This is a street that looks dilapidated and desolate compared to Diagon Alley. There are not only some shops with hidden signs around it, but also some dilapidated houses, and the room they walked out of belongs to the houses. One of them looked like a safe house that the Order had prepared when they were in exile in England.

"Where should we start to check first? This street is not small, and strangers come and leave at any time. If Snape uses Apparition immediately after arriving here, it will be difficult for us to find him."

Jon lowered his voice and followed Lily, just like an ordinary little boy who followed his mother to a strange place, and tugged on Lily's sleeve and asked.

Lily didn't explain much, just said briefly.

"Follow me."

They quickly passed through this area that was considered shabby in Jon's eyes, but was actually in relatively good condition in Knockturn Alley.

And Jon also saw some wizards scattered around.

Wizards basically wear hoods on their robes, while witches all wear pointed hats with wide brim to cover their faces.

It wasn't that Lily didn't want to block her, but she was taking Jon with her. With such a combination, it was useless even if she covered her face with a hat. She just showed her face openly, looking like a young aristocratic woman from some family going out with her young master. Posture can also avoid a lot of trouble.

But as we go deeper into Knockturn Alley, there are some troubles that cannot be avoided.

When they passed by a shack that looked like a gathering place for homeless people, they saw a man wearing tatters that couldn't even be called a robe, but could only be called a strip of cloth. His hair stood up and there was a clump of hair on his chest. The man with obvious chest hair stared at Lily with his wolf-like eyes and stood up from the ground at the same time.

He looked at Lily's white neck, licked his tongue, and followed slowly, while the people around him who looked similar to him in clothing conditions just looked at this scene with cold eyes.

Someone always has to try, especially in Knockturn Alley under Voldemort's rule.

Originally, according to Voldemort's iron-blooded skills, it would be easy to clean up Knockturn Alley, if not stress-free.

But it was as if he deliberately ignored this place. He never ordered the Death Eaters or the British Aurors to clean up this gray area in the wizarding world. He even deliberately removed some special ones who were not so obedient to him. Dangerous people, rush to Knockturn Alley.

This has led to this wizarding street becoming darker and darker over the years.

The original Knockturn Alley can only be called a gray area at best. On the surface, it still obeys the magical laws of the British Ministry of Magic. At least it will not go too far on the surface.

But during the reign of Voldemort, order was completely lost here. Many strong men in the magical world were driven here. Werewolves who wreaked havoc on their nature, lawless goblins, cruel and dark dark wizards, and wanted criminals who killed countless people. All kinds of people here. Yes, but there are just no good people. Knockturn Alley was once in the most primitive living environment of the jungle and the strong.

It was only in recent years that some of the territories and forces in Knockturn Alley were almost divided, and the place returned to a slightly orderly situation. It is precisely because of this that this street has once again shouldered the responsibility of serving some pure people. The wealthy class among the blood nobles or mixed-bloods provide a place for shady items to be traded, returning to the original intention of Knockturn Alley being established in the first place.

Since this period, the Order of the Phoenix has also placed some personnel here, but now due to the tension between France and Britain, only one safe house remains here.

Of course Lily also discovered that they were being targeted.

There was no wand in the hand, but the hands were full of sharp nails. He was about to speed up his pace and start running towards Lily and Jon.

Lily had a cold face and turned around to recite the spell without hesitation!

"Heart-breaking and bone-cutting!"

The Cruciatus Curse hit the man who had just started running in an instant. The pain that penetrated his soul made it impossible for him to move his limbs. He could only curl up and fall like a cooked prawn. On the ground, howl!

The movements of Lily's hands still didn't stop at all!

"Heart-breaking and bone-cutting!"

The second Cruciatus Curse fell on the man again. His body was already experiencing convulsions, and his eyes began to turn white in pain. It even felt like he might die on the spot or go crazy at any time.

But Lily didn't show the slightest pity on her face, and the homeless people huddled under the wooden shed also looked indifferently at the twitching man lying on the ground.

This is the law of Knockturn Alley. If you want to cause trouble for the other party, you must first be prepared to risk your life. If Lily hadn't had such a strong counterattack, her end would have been even more miserable than the man lying on the ground, because once the seemingly harmless prey revealed that she was really just a sheep, there wouldn't be just one. The wolf wanted to eat her.

Therefore, Lily's attacks were ruthless, and it was completely unforgivable to cast the Unforgivable Curse, but Jon did not have any psychological barriers at all.

He killed the whole family of a pure-blood family with a sword, snake fangs, and a killing curse. He doesn't have the right to have any psychological barriers, does he?
