Study Days at Hogwarts

Hogwarts underground kitchen.

The house elves who were busy all day rarely did not clean the tableware after the meal. Instead, they gathered around the cleared corner of the dining table and whispered about the upcoming events in Hogwarts.

Although a house elf suggested joining the battle during the period, this proposal was quickly rejected by Kara (the house elf that Albert took away from Hogwarts). Because Albert believed that there were more important things for house elves to complete than joining the battle, and that was also an important puzzle piece leading to victory.

"The appointed time should be coming soon."

The house elf looked at the hour hand on the pocket watch, looked up and around nervously, as if looking for something.

After a loud Apparition crackle, Dobby, who was not very popular among house elves at first, appeared in the kitchen out of thin air. He was also holding a suitcase that was slightly too large for him. After seeing clearly that the surrounding environment was safe, Finally, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Don't be nervous Dobby, it's safe here." Cara, the house elf, tried to calm Dobby's nervousness.

"Dobby sent them to Hogwarts on time as instructed by Mr. Anderson."

The house elf said sharply, laying the suitcase flat on the marble floor and opening it. A door popped out of the opened suitcase.

The next moment, Sirius, who was holding the wand in his hand and looking wary, took the lead to come out of the suitcase, looked around to confirm the safety, and muttered, "The underground kitchen of Hogwarts?"

He has been here countless times and it is indeed safer.

Members of the Order of the Phoenix and the Defense Association also came out of the suitcases one after another. There were more than forty people in total, which was already considered a strong force.

"It seems that Anderson has really considered all the problems." Lu Ping couldn't help but sigh after noticing everyone appeared in the kitchen.

"According to the original plan, we need to contact the school's professors first." Percy took out his notes and talked about the plan.

"Don't worry, the house elf will notify the professor for us."

Fred took out a map from his non-marking stretch bag and gave it to Percy, "Our mission is to give priority to clearing out Voldemort's minions in the school."

"Sirius." George said while checking the map, "You need to go with Lupine to find Professor McGonagall. Remember not to kill our principal. Albert said that guy is still useful."

"What good can Snotlout do? Can he tip off Voldemort?"

Although Sirius wanted to tear Snape apart, he still had no intention of going against Albert's wishes. Especially since the critical moment had come, it was best not to disrupt Albert's plan.

"Don't worry, I will keep an eye on Sirius, and Snape is not weak. It is not easy to kill him." Lupine signaled to Sirius that it was time for them to take action.

"I guess Snape will die in the end!" After Fred said hello to everyone, he led the team to clear out Voldemort's minions entrenched in Hogwarts.

"Then I'll leave first." George also led the team away.

"see you later."

Bill kissed Fleur on the cheek and left quickly with several other Order members.

There are three clean-up teams. They need to completely end their sinful life before the enemy reacts, and avoid any complications in the process.

Moody, Arthur and a few other members of the Order of the Phoenix stayed in the kitchen to ensure the safety of the place. At the same time, they also needed to assign tasks to the next batch of arriving reinforcements to prevent them from becoming a mess due to no one to direct them.

Everyone quickly realized the benefits of doing so.

The second batch of people sent to Hogwarts by Dobby was obviously larger and the ingredients were more mixed.

They were all temporary residents of Sanctuary No. 1. In addition to a large number of members of Dumbledore's Army, there were also wizards who had been persecuted and were hiding in the Sanctuary to receive asylum. Most of them came to participate in this war half-heartedly.

The orderly arrangement will undoubtedly greatly reduce their inner uneasiness, because it almost means that they are fully prepared.

Finally, there were wizards who were close to the Order of the Phoenix and willing to resist Voldemort. They were quickly organized by Arthur and prepared to go to the hall to help evacuate the students of Hogwarts.

Except someone.

"Hagrid, your mission is to go to the Forbidden Forest with Firenze and convince the centaur tribe to join us."

Percy immediately went to Hagrid, who was obviously bigger than everyone else, and warned, "I've asked the house elf to notify Firenze."

"That's no problem, but I'm not sure if those centaurs are willing to join us." Hagrid didn't have much confidence in this. He knew very well that he was no longer welcome by the centaurs.

"You should believe Albert, and he asked me to specially remind you that your little cuties are our enemies now, don't do stupid things, and don't be stupid." Percy looked into Hagrid's eyes and said , "Don't kill your companions because of some stupid behavior of yours."

"I know exactly what I should do." Hagrid was a little depressed.

"That's best."

Percy also felt that Hagrid was unreliable, but they had no better choice.

Fortunately, things went smoothly and there were few obstacles.

The few dark wizards who stayed behind had no idea that the castle had been invaded, and were directly attacked from behind and knocked down.

When Moody left the kitchen, he happened to run into George's team in the corridor. At the guy's feet lay a fresh, freshly repaired body of a dark wizard.

"Albert reminded us more than once that people are destined to die in war, especially tonight." George looked into the eyes of his eldest brother Bill and said seriously, "If we don't want our acquaintances to die, it's best to kill the enemy directly, no Just knocking them out, that’s stupid.”

"War is never a child's play. To be kind to the enemy is to be cruel to your own people. You don't even have a correct mentality. No wonder Albert doesn't count on you." Kenneth looked at the silent Order of the Phoenix and the others, curled his lips and used everyone's words. The voice that everyone could hear whispered, "I hope Kingsley can be more reliable, otherwise many people may die tonight."

"Okay, don't crowd in here."

Moody tapped the ground with his cane, breaking the atmosphere here. He turned his gaze to George and asked, "I remember that according to the plan, we still need to capture Hogsmeade."

"Everyone's not here yet, but it should be soon. Look, they're coming." George smiled and greeted Fred's team coming this way.

"Our mission this time is to clear out the dark wizards entrenched there, so that those who hear the broadcast can apparate to Hogsmeade and have a way to join us."

"Yes, everyone is here, ready to go!"

At this moment, a silver cat trotted towards them from the end of the corridor, stopped in front of them and opened its mouth and spoke in the voice of Professor McGonagall: "Snape has escaped, and we are preparing to evacuate the students in the school."
