Study Days at Hogwarts

Late at night, Fred's arrival woke up everyone who stayed at the Order of the Phoenix headquarters.

They were drinking strong tea that Mrs. Weasley had just brewed to relieve their sleepiness, while listening to Fred talk about the reason why he came to the Order of the Phoenix headquarters at this time.

"So, you plan to invade the Ministry of Magic at night and rescue the imprisoned wizards?"

Ron was stunned by Fred's words. He really didn't expect that the people in the Defense Association were so bold.

This is preparation for something big!

"Is this too hasty?"

Everyone's faces were slightly uneasy, and they knew very well what the consequences would be if they brazenly invaded the Ministry of Magic to save people at this time.

Although this may also be the best solution at present.

"Albert thinks this must be a trap carefully prepared by the Death Eaters, so we must rescue people before they react." Fred was very aware of other people's concerns about the Ministry of Magic, but he still explained, "We have confirmed this from Umbridge's mouth, but as long as we know the traps they set in advance, it is easy to solve the problem. We can rescue the people before other Death Eaters react and successfully escape from the Ministry of Magic. Get away."

Fred had great confidence in Albert. Although he felt that the people from the Defense Association alone could solve this problem, the people who Albert asked him to inform the Order of the Phoenix must also have his deepest intentions.

"You captured Umbridge?"

Percy was shocked by the unscrupulousness of the Defense Association. He never expected that they would capture Umbridge and torture her.

"Albert thinks you can take the opportunity to drag the rescued people into the Order of the Phoenix." Fred did not answer Percy's question. He actually hoped that everyone would follow Albert's command. That would undoubtedly be more efficient, especially It was while fighting the mysterious man.

"I'll go with you!"

Percy actually raised his hand to express his willingness to join the action.

He was off to a good start.

"We'll go too."

After the three Harrys exchanged glances with each other, they all expressed their willingness to help.

This is undoubtedly a novel experience for them, and with Albert leading the team, safety is usually guaranteed.

"You three can't do it." Fred suddenly said.

"Why, why can't we do it!"

The three of them were stunned for a moment and protested dissatisfied.

"no reason."

Fred never forgot Albert's warning. In his opinion, Harry did attract more hatred. If Harry went, attracting the mysterious man would definitely be a big trouble.

He also hopes that this operation will go smoothly.

"Harry, your mission is not to go to the Ministry of Magic to rescue people. Molly, help keep an eye on the three of them and don't let them run away."

Sirius also disagreed with Harry going. He felt that Fred's decision not to let the three of them go must be Albert's instruction.

"I will."

Mrs. Weasley turned to look at Harry, Hermione, and Ron, who were still about to protest, and glared at them with her hands on her hips, "Don't cause trouble."

"We didn't cause any trouble."

"Albert obviously thinks that you will cause trouble if you go, so he specially told you not to go with him." Mrs. Weasley gave a reason that the three of them could not refute. It was obviously Albert's intention not to let them go.

"Someone also needs to stay here." Kingsley comforted him. "After all, after rescuing people, they also need to be taken care of, and we need to get in touch with the shelter."

"be safe."

Mrs. Weasley gave Mr. Weasley a bottle of vitality tonic, kissed his cheek and said.

"It seems we have to find time to prepare more potions." Lu Ping murmured, looking at the almost empty potion box.

"Fortunately, we got money last time." Sirius patted his cheek after drinking the potion and said, "We also need to prepare some more compound potions."

Speaking of this matter, everyone looked a little embarrassed. After all, many people were against Sirius doing that in the first place.

"Okay, let's go too!" Kingsley changed the subject. Those who were going to go with Albert were members of the Order of the Phoenix who were familiar with the Ministry of Magic.

"Oh, by the way, Harry, we need to borrow your invisibility cloak temporarily." Fred said suddenly.

"No problem, I'll get it for you." Harry hurried to the bedroom to get something.

Several people apparated directly to a street near Umbridge's house. When they first arrived, George and Lee Jordan came to greet them.

"How did you discover us?" Sirius was a little curious. They were still under the cover of the Disillusionment Curse.

"Human Traces Curse, the surrounding streets are all under our surveillance." George shook the map in his hand and explained.

"Albert is always good at discovering how to use these spells." Sirius felt that there was no reason why the Death Eaters were so miserable.

"Come with me!"

George walked in front to lead the way.

They soon arrived on the street outside Umbridge's house, only to see George wave his wand, opening a passage and leading them through the protective magic.

Probably noticing the surprised expressions of several people, Lee Jordan explained to them with a smile: "The protective magic created by Aurors is actually very simple. After Albert broke it, he made another one himself. The one you just saw is Auror." Bert put it back up."

Umbridge's home is not big. After George knocked on the door, he saw Cedric coming out to open the door for them. He didn't know what was happening in the hall, and it sounded very noisy.

When a few people entered, the corners of their eyes couldn't help but twitch, and they finally knew why everyone was making noise.

Because on the table, Umbridge was twisting her bloated body and performing an extremely eye-catching dance for everyone.

It was probably some kind of bad taste from Albert.

"Maybe we should record this scene and play it for everyone to see!" Fred looked at Umbridge who was still dancing solo with interest.

"Okay, let's go!"

Albert waved his wand, and the suitcase next to him suddenly opened in front of everyone, and quickly formed a door. People entered the suitcase one after another, preparing for Umbridge to take them to the Ministry of Magic.

"This suitcase of yours is really convenient." Sirius looked at the vast space in the suitcase and couldn't help but sigh.

"Sometimes it's really convenient. You can also make one yourself."

"forget it."

Sirius was self-aware. The Traceless Stretch Spell was indeed very convenient, but it was not easy to create, especially to extend it to such a wide space, which meant that a very high level of spell casting was required.

That is not comparable to ordinary camping tents.

"Okay, come here, I'll tell you what to do next!"

Albert clapped his hands, attracted everyone else's attention, and spread out a brief map on the table.

"The location where they hold prisoners is on the bottom floor of the Ministry of Magic, which is the trial room. There are only enough temporary cells there to hold the captured wizards. But the trial room is not drawn on this map, and even Umbridge I don’t know much about the buildings there.” Albert looked at the people in the Order of the Phoenix.

"I've been there a few times, but I'm not very familiar with it either."

"You come out with me later, and the others stay in the suitcases." Albert tapped Umbridge's office with his finger, then pointed to the elevator entrance and said, "We need to go down from here, but there is Several Ministry of Magic employees standing vigil need to be put down before they react."

"no problem."

"What about us?"

"You are the back-up." Albert continued, "If this is a trap, then the Death Eaters will undoubtedly ambush us here."

"Since you thought this was a trap, why did you step into it?" Kingsley asked puzzledly.

This is obviously not Albert's style.

"As long as we move fast enough, the mysterious man and the Death Eaters will not have time to react." Albert suddenly asked, "Have you borrowed Harry's cloak?"

"here."

Sirius took out Harry's magical invisibility cloak from the traceless stretch bag and asked in confusion: "What do you want this for?"

"This invisibility cloak is special." Albert said softly: "It is even easier to detect than the brilliant Disguise Spell. We need to be prepared for the worst."

Who would have thought that there is a more sinister guy hiding and preparing to attack them?

As for the dementors, Albert was never worried. There weren't many dementors hidden in the Ministry of Magic, and those guys didn't pose much of a threat to him.

While everyone was discussing countermeasures, the suitcase was lightly knocked. They had arrived at the Ministry of Magic in the UK.

Fortunately, Umbridge's office was a separate room, which saved them a lot of trouble.

Otherwise, if you foolishly break into the Ministry of Magic, the alarm will be triggered immediately. The wizards who stay behind are just used to confuse others. The real guard is actually a Death Eater responsible for monitoring the Ministry of Magic.

According to the information obtained from Umbridge, the Ministry of Magic claimed that in order to prevent someone from invading the Ministry of Magic overnight and rescue those captured wizards, they arranged many arrangements at night to guard against magic.

However, once someone does come to the Ministry of Magic to save someone, they will be blocked in the Ministry of Magic by the Death Eaters who arrive immediately.

It's a pity that this time Albert is leading the team in person, so there's no telling how effective the traps carefully prepared by the Death Eaters can be.
