Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Chapter 144 The Burrow
Not long after Fudge arrived on the scene, the good news came.

The Nigerian elephant was calmed down, and the Dark Mark disappeared in the air. Harry and Ron came over with bruised noses and swollen faces, followed by Malfoy, who was also bruised and bruised.

Obviously, even when it was so dangerous just now, they didn't forget to fight.

Hermione and Ginny walked over angrily, and they taught Harry and Ron and the giggling twins a good lesson, which made Malfoy laugh happily.

But he didn't laugh for long, and the appearance of old Malfoy made him shiver directly.

More and more people gathered, and everyone was overwhelmed with joy and fear. Some personnel from the Ministry of Magic were maintaining order, but no one listened to them.

When things like this happen the night after a Quidditch World Cup final, someone has to take the ire.

They dare not face the higher-ups of the Ministry of Magic, and these low-level employees naturally become scapegoats.

"Let's go back." Looking at the messy scene, Ike said.

"But Mr. Weasley asked us to wait for him here." Before Hermione could speak, Harry hesitated.

Ike took a deep look at him, then turned to look at Hermione and said, "The Ministry of Magic must be busy tonight, Mr. Weasley and the others don't know when they will come over."

"It's too noisy here, Ginny can live with you, we'll live in the living room and my room."

"Trust me, our tents are the safest."

Looking at the obviously sleepy Ginny and the bruised Harry Ron, Hermione finally nodded in agreement.

All the way back, Ike's tent was clearly seen.There are still fires burning around, and some people are constantly using magic spells to put out the fires, but Ike's body is unscathed.

As soon as they entered, Hermione pulled Ginny into her room, and the boys discussed it. Harry and Ron slept in Ike's room, and Ike huddled with the twins in the living room.

They were not worried that Mr. Weasley would not be able to find him when he came back. Before leaving, Ike deliberately told a few people from the Ministry of Magic.With someone as famous as Harry around, there was no one who would not be happy to do such a small favor.

This sleep was not so peaceful, and I woke up very early.Ike found out the remaining milk and bread, and simply let everyone pad their stomachs.

No one complained about the poor breakfast, in fact none of them had much appetite, Ike was full, and Hermione finished her portion at his urging.

After resting for a while, he went out.After Ike put away the tent, they walked to the Weasley family's tent together.

When we got there, only Bill and Charlie were there, and Mr. Weasley went out early in the morning.

"We have been looking for you for a long time, and it was the father who was told by Professor McGonagall. The guys you told were too busy to forget." Bill said.

"I'm sorry, I just think they need a good rest after what they've been through."

"I don't mean to blame you. In fact, you've done a good job." Bill shook his head slightly, "It's useless to stay there, and we've seen it before. The protective magic of your tent is very good. It's you Did you make it yourself?"

Ike nodded and said, "The tent with protective magic is too expensive, I can't afford it at all."

"Great!" Bill gave a thumbs up and patted Ike on the shoulder again.

Several people chatted like this, and after a long time, Mr. Weasley came back in a hurry.

"Pack up, we're leaving now."

He put away the tent, re-tied it into a backpack and carried it on his back, and led the people to quickly walk out of the camp.

There are many people on the road, all leaving like them.They were in a mess, cursing from time to time, and when they got to the place where the door keys were kept, they became even more confused.

A group of wizards surrounded Basil, the Portkey Administrator, and they all wanted to leave first. They didn't want to stay here for even a second.

The scene was so chaotic that Basil had a hard time getting people to line up.Mr. Weasley wanted to discuss with Basil, but was refused, and everyone could only stand in the queue.

"Mr. Weasley, I think we are going to part." Taking advantage of the queue, Ike said goodbye to Mr. Weasley.

"What? Where are you going?"

"I can live in the Leaky Cauldron for a few days, and I won't be out of school for long."

"No, no, child, I can't let you go outside alone in this situation." Mr. Weasley directly refused, "Listen, you have to go back to the Burrow with us!"

After finishing speaking, he secretly glanced at Ron who was talking to Harry. Mr. Weasley put his arm around Ike's shoulder and said in a low voice, "I heard from Fred and Ginny that Ron has some hostility toward you." , Your relationship is not that harmonious."

"I know more or less about things, and that's not your fault."

"You're a good boy, I hope you don't blame Ron too much."

Saying that, the hand around Ike's shoulder tightened again: "You saved Ginny from dozens of people last night!"

"Son, I have to express my thanks!"

"So, let's go to the Burrow!"

Ike couldn't refuse Mr. Weasley's enthusiasm, so he nodded in response, and then he attracted a stronger hug from Mr. Weasley, and finally patted him on the back.

Well, the hands are very strong.

It wasn't until almost noon that it was their turn.Basil threw a tattered old tire, relying on it, he finally left the camp and returned to Ferret Mountain.

After a long walk through the village of Ottery St. Catchpole, along a wet path, we reached the Burrow.

"Thank God! Thank God!"

Mrs. Weasley ran towards them, gave each of them a big hug, and finally hugged Mr. Weasley tightly.Her complexion was very bad, and she looked very nervous.

"Okay, Molly, we are all safe and sound." Mr. Weasley patted Mrs. Weasley on the back lightly, "Thanks to Ike, the children were safe and even got a good night's sleep! "

"I've only had an hour's sleep and I really need a cup of hot cocoa, or maybe a fire of whiskey."

As soon as the voice fell, before Ike could react, he was hugged by Mrs. Weasley.

"Thank you, son."

"It's...it's okay." Ike didn't know what to say. In the past ten years, even Julian hadn't hugged him like Mrs. Weasley.

"Come in, come in..." Mr. Weasley beckoned everyone to walk towards the house, and Mrs. Weasley finally let go of Ike.

Follow behind into the house, which is the narrow kitchen. A large long table almost fills up the empty room inside, leaving only a narrow aisle.

Hermione had been here several times, and she was familiar with Ginny and poured Mrs. Weasley a cup of tea, while Mr. Weasley poured himself a glass of Flame Whiskey and took a big swig.

At this time, he found the "Daily Prophet" on the table, and after only a few glances, he said in a serious and serious way: "The Ministry of Magic is in a panic... The dark wizard is at large...bringing shame to the country..."

"I thought the woman would be more stable, after several months in the ward of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Wounds."

"Who is it?" Percy leaned over curiously, and after seeing the author of the article, he was immediately furious.

"Rita Starkey! Of course she is!"

"She's right with the Ministry of Magic!"
