The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 645 The Tranquility Before the Storm

On the way back to the Burrow, Ada told Harry and the three about Regulus Black's past, and the three sighed.Hermione, who had more sympathy for house elves, cried even more.

The three immediately expressed that they would present the fake locket to Kreacher and let the elf keep it as a souvenir.Although Kreacher had once pitted them badly, fortunately no one was injured, so the three of Harry didn't resent him very much.

Returning to St. Catchpole Village, the crooked burrow appeared in the sight of the four of them again, and the smoke from the kitchen was wafting up, which made people happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Ada, who had been controlling her walking speed, asked, "I heard from Mrs. Weasley that the three of you plan to drop out of school?"

Harry, Ron and Hermione are in seventh grade after the start of school, and they still have a year to graduate, but the three of them are not going to return to Hogwarts on September [-]st, and in their view, that has no meaning up.

The first person to drop out of school was Harry. Ron and Hermione were worried about him, so they wanted to accompany him and advance together.The friendship between the trio is really the envy of others.

"Well," Harry muttered in response, "I want to fulfill Professor Dumbledore's order, find all the Horcruxes, and defeat him."

Ada wasn't surprised by Harry's choice, or she would have done the same.Ada continued to ask: "What are your plans? Where do you want to go first after leaving the Burrow?"

"Godric's Valley, I want to visit the place where my parents lived." Harry said, he has already considered this issue, Godric's Valley is only his first stop, and there will be Albania on his journey .

Hermione disagreed. Although Godric's Hollow was important to Harry, it must be full of danger.The Potters' grave was there, Dumbledore's house had been there, the Death Eaters must have figured that out, and Harry was throwing himself into a trap by going there.

"Although the Ministry of Magic is indeed not very useful, at least you have some confidence in Mr. Weasley and me, okay?" Ada tilted her head and said dissatisfiedly, "Godric's Hollow has too many symbolic meanings. Let it fall into the hands of the Death Eaters."

As Hermione said, the graveyard of the Potters is there, and the monuments and ruins are there. If these symbolic things are destroyed by the Death Eaters, it is equivalent to a heavy hammer hitting the psychological defense of the big guy.

Even the so-called "impenetrable" Maginot Line can't stand a hammer here and a stick here, let alone a weak heart, it has already been scarred by the horror brought by Voldemort Hundred holes.

The Minister of Magic and Dumbledore were killed successively, and many wizards lost the belief and courage to continue to resist.This also made Ada attach great importance to the symbolic monument, and even wanted to organize the people in the ministry to visit collectively and get a good education.

Ada didn't have the idea of ​​"lose the land and lose the people, and lose all the people and land" in her heart.The magic world is a big place, and there is no strategic depth at all. If you don't care about the gains and losses of a city or a place today, you won't even have a chance to fight a guerrilla tomorrow.

Therefore, the office of the Ministry of Magic, which represents the center of political power, Godric's Hollow, which symbolizes resistance to Voldemort's atrocities, and Hogwarts, where students gather to represent the future, these three places will never allow any mistakes and are the most important defenses of the Ministry of Magic. Heavy, people are in the tower!
In general, Godric's Hollow is safe at this stage, and Harry's journey to find his roots will not be attacked by Death Eaters.

Ada had no reason to object, nor did she want to.If it was her, Ada would have already run over, and she would have to wait until today.

"It's good to go back and have a look, but you don't need to go to Albania." Ada continued, "I've already been to that ghostly place, and I found the clues I was looking for."

The three of Harry looked at Ada in surprise. Obviously, the three of them didn't know that Ada had been to the Kingdom of Eagles, and Dumbledore didn't tell Harry.It was likely that there was no time to say that the Death Eaters' raid came a few days earlier than the headmaster expected.

While talking, the four of them unknowingly walked to the door of the Burrow, where Mrs. Weasley had already arranged a large dining table in the garden.

"The diary from 50 years ago, Slytherin's ring, locket, and Hufflepuff's gold cup, these four Horcruxes have all been wiped out." Ada stopped at the Burrow door, "Ravenclaw's The crown should be hidden in the school, as for the other Horcrux... I already have a clue."

The implication is that there is no need for Harry to leave school, and Ida has almost done what he has to do.Instead of wandering outside and risking being discovered by Death Eaters, it is better to stay at school and find the crown with peace of mind.

This is also the difference between Ida and Dumbledore, she will not arrange everything for Harry, but make it clear to Harry four four six six six, let Harry choose whether to stay or go.

But Harry didn't need to rush to answer, there was still a month before Hogwarts started, and Harry could give his own answer after going to Godric's Hollow.

As night fell, lanterns were lit in the garden of the Burrow, making the small courtyard look like a fairy tale.

The birthday dinner was not a big one, and it was all Harry's good friends.Sirius was dressed very grandly, and those who didn't know thought he was going to get married today. Ada doubted that if it was a peaceful time, the unruly Sirius might take Harry to meet the market.

Hagrid put on his best shaggy brown suit to show he valued it, and it was ugly, worse than his rock pie.Charlie is also back from Romania, and his funny short hair looks like a dog ate it.

Lupine and Tonks came together, and although they were married, with wedding rings gleaming on their ring fingers, Nymphadora was more commonly called Tonks than Mrs. Lupine.

Tonks, who was promoted to Mrs. Lupine, is radiant, changing from the decadence and depression of last year.Lupine next to her looked a little unhappy, probably newlyweds, overworked.

Sure enough, it is not easy for an old cow to eat young grass...

A group of people were chatting and laughing around the dining table, and Harry told an interesting story about how Dudley had grown a pig's tail when Hagrid first went to pick him up.Mr. Weasley and Sirius gathered together and muttered, as if they were talking about how to fix the broken motorcycle.

After becoming the Minister of Magic, Mr. Weasley not only did not relax, but became even busier.Every day, he would go to work in the ministry before dawn and return home at midnight. It had been a long time since he got into the small wooden shed to study his beloved Muggle items.

It wasn't until Mrs. Weasley brought the cake in the shape of a golden snitch that everyone stopped joking and raised their glasses together (Percy also put down his work).Except for the youngest, Ginny, everyone in the room was of age.

"Happy Birthday, Harry Potter!"

A piece of "Happy Birthday to You" was sung at random, and everyone seemed to have no musical ability. Fred and George even played a long note, which made people want to beat them up.

Halfway through dinner, Ada and the twins snuck out of the Burrow with bottles in hand, to the creek where they used to fish.

The night was gentle, and Ada was lazily leaning on the river bank, chatting with Fred and George.

Today is Harry's birthday, tomorrow is Bill's wedding, and in these dangerous times, Ida wishes there were more of these days.She knew how unrealistic her thoughts were, but she couldn't help herself.
