Study Days at Hogwarts

"Damn, why is it so difficult?"

In the room, Ron, who was wearing a thick cloak, was flipping through Hermione's notes and waving his wand to practice breaking spells.

He also knew that if he didn't want to continue to hold everyone back, he had to master how to extinguish the fire as soon as possible to ensure that they were foolproof when they invaded Gringotts to destroy the Horcruxes.

Hermione alone would definitely catch the three of them off guard if something unexpected happened, and even cause them to lose their lives due to the intense fire.

"Forget it, let's talk to Hermione tomorrow."

Ron closed the note and looked sideways at the empty bed. He discovered that Harry and Ginny's relationship wasn't all bad.

At least no one bothered him while he was communicating with Hermione.

I just don't know where Harry and Ginny went on a date at such a late hour.

Why don't you ask Hermione, maybe she knows something.

Ron hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't muster the courage to go to Hermione.

He took off his thick cloak and hung it on the hanger next to him. When he was about to lie down on the bed and rest, there was a sudden sound of the wooden door being rudely opened downstairs.

"What's going on? Has anyone invaded the Order of the Phoenix headquarters?"

He jumped up from the bed, grabbed his wand and pushed the door open. He carefully touched it in the direction of the sound, as if he was casually preparing for a fight.

"what happened?"

Percy asked with a slight frown as he looked at his sneaky brother.

"have no idea."

When the two of them came downstairs along the stairs, they found that there was already a mess downstairs. Other members of the Order of the Phoenix were also attracted by the noise just now.

only……

"problem occurs."

Looking at the crowded medical room, Percy looked unhappy because he seemed to hear Mrs. Weasley's voice losing control of her emotions, and someone could vaguely hear Bill's name in the noise.

"what happened."

Ron also had a bad premonition in his heart, and began to move closer to the crowd, trying to figure out the specific situation.

"Bill was injured, it was a Death Eater."

Sirius stretched out his hand to stop Ron outside the medical room to prevent them from entering and interfering with Bill's treatment.

"how so."

Ron's eyes widened, finding it difficult to accept that Bill would be attacked by Death Eaters.

Ever since Albert invented and popularized the detection pocket watch, it has been very difficult for Death Eaters to sneak up on them.

Everyone looked at Lupine who had brought Bill back. The latter's face was also extremely ugly and he began to tell everyone the whole thing.

"That group of Death Eaters destroyed another Muggle village and turned the people in the village into inferi. When Bill and I were scouting nearby, we were ambushed by them."

"How could you be attacked by a sneak attack? Didn't you bring a detection pocket watch?"

"How could we make such a childish mistake?" Lupine raised his hand to let them see the detection pocket watch in his hand, and said with a wry smile, "Those Death Eaters seemed to have expected that we would go over to investigate, and they had already laid an ambush. Wait until we pass."

"You were ambushed?"

Everyone was a little stunned, unable to understand how they could be ambushed by Death Eaters when they had a detection pocket watch.

"No, we had discovered them earlier, but they were already surrounded by that time." Lu Ping said with a bitter smile, "They should also have guessed that we have detection methods. Although it was indeed detected by the pocket watch,... the Death Eaters beat us We were outnumbered, and two invisible Death Eaters took the opportunity to sneak attack us, and it was at that time that Bill was seriously injured by their sneak attack."

Everyone fell silent, because they were also familiar with this move.

Albert had done that more than once, and now he asked the Death Eaters to learn from it and use it against them?

"Remus, are you okay?"

Tonks, who was carrying a big belly, reached out to push away the crowd and walked over with a worried look on her face. She reached out and touched Lupine, looking like she was frightened.

"I'm fine."

Looking at his pregnant wife, Lupine felt a little guilty, and quickly helped her sit down first, then continued to talk about how they escaped from the siege of Death Eaters.

Moody came over on crutches and asked, "How is Bill doing now?"

"People are still alive."

Arthur was still frightened, he almost lost another son.

"Fortunately, Bill was wearing a fire dragon jacket, otherwise the black magic might have taken his life directly."

"We must send Bill to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Magical Injuries for treatment." Mrs. Weasley was completely panicked.

"Don't be stupid, those Death Eaters might already be waiting for us somewhere." Arthur asked sullenly.

"But we can't just let it go..."

"We have sent a message to Professor McGonagall. She will come here soon with Madam Pomfrey. She will definitely have a way to cure Bill." Kingsley couldn't help but think of Albert, thanks to his foresight. , to win over Madam Pomfrey in advance to join the cause of resisting the mysterious man.

Everyone didn't wait long, Madam Pomfrey and Professor McGonagall arrived with the help of house elves. The two of them seemed to have arrived in a hurry. They were still wearing nightgowns and only wore thick cloaks to protect themselves from the cold night.

After checking Bill's injury, he hurried back to school.

The potion stored in the Order of the Phoenix headquarters is not enough to cure Bill's injury, and Madam Pomfrey needs to return to Hogwarts to get enough medicine.

"Don't worry, he'll recover."

After Bill's life was not in danger, Arthur calmed down completely and softly comforted his wife who was out of control.

"Mrs. Pomfrey said it was thanks to the dragonskin jacket that it greatly weakened the power of dark magic." Mrs. Weasley choked, "Bill was able to survive."

"I think we should prepare a few more sets of dragon skin linings, at least to give people who go out some protection."

Tonks felt scared thinking about it now. Remus didn't have a dragon leather jacket on him. If the spell had hit Remus instead of Bill, it might have killed him directly.

"How many sets?" Sirius' voice couldn't help but rise a little higher, "Although I don't want to discourage you, do you know how much it would cost to get Albert to customize that thing?"

"How many?"

Everyone looked at Sirius and fell silent after seeing the latter reaching out and giving a number.

"I said it was for Harry, and he gave me a very low price."

At this moment, everyone fell silent.

"Where's Potter?"

Moody spoke to break the silence.

Everyone looked around and found that Harry was nowhere to be seen. Such a big thing happened, and Harry was still sleeping?

Obviously it was impossible, Ron, who lived with him, was already here.

"Ron, do you know where Harry is?" Sirius asked Ron directly. After all, they lived together, so he must know better than them.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Ron stunned, everyone frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

"Harry is probably dating Ginny!" Hermione explained to everyone on Ron's behalf.

Although the Order of the Phoenix completely occupied the hotel, they actually only used the lower floors of the hotel. If Harry and Ginny went on a date upstairs, it wouldn't be surprising if they couldn't hear anything going on below.

"As long as Harry is fine." Sirius didn't care much about this matter.

The Weasleys naturally didn't mind Harry and Ginny being together, and were even happy to do so, but because of Bill's incident, they were not in the mood to pay attention to it.

Others are actually curious, but it seems inappropriate to discuss it now.

"Now we should discuss the issue of Death Eaters. Those beasts have obviously been cornered." Moody tapped the ground with his crutches: "They slaughtered those Muggles, obviously trying to lure us over to check the situation and take the opportunity to deal with them. Let’s do it.”

"Albert had expected that. The target of those beasts from the beginning was us." Sirius reminded.

Everyone fell silent again, because they also knew about this.

Regardless of whether it was Albert or Fred and George's warning not long ago, they just didn't take it too seriously, causing Bill and Lupine to be ambushed and almost overturned.

"I'm afraid similar massacre cases will happen again." Kingsley frowned and looked at Sirius. He really didn't have a good way to stop those madmen.

"I will get in touch with Albert as soon as possible. Maybe he has some good ideas."
