Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Chapter 313 News from Sirius

The Hog's Head is cooler than ever.

The three of Harry opened the door and came in, and saw Sirius talking with the bad-tempered boss.Seeing the three people come in, the boss immediately said angrily, "The one looking for you is here, disappear from my sight."

"Hey, okay, take it easy." Sirius spread his hands, smiled and said something to the boss, then turned around and gave Harry a tight hug, "How are you, Harry?" ?”

"I'm fine, Sirius." Harry was very excited, with a smile unconsciously on his face, "How about you? Are you okay, I saw in the newspaper..."

"What the newspaper said is not entirely true, you know, those reporters..." Sirius curled his lips, greeted Hermione and Ron again, and invited them to sit down at a table.When they were all seated, they slapped the table and shouted, "Hey, Aberforth, serve us all a butterbeer!"

Aberforth's efficiency was very high, but his attitude was not very good. He put the glass on the table vigorously, shaking the wine inside for a while, and spilled a lot.Seeing this, Sirius just smiled.

This scene made the three of Harry very curious. They were about to ask questions, but they were interrupted by Sirius.

"Okay, leave him alone, his temper has always been like this for so many years..." Sirius took a sip of butter beer, added a foam beard to himself, and asked Harry with a smile, "Listen Said your team's selection is over? How about it, are you confident of winning this year's Quidditch trophy?"

"Of course, my goal has always been to be the final champion." Harry said.

"Maintain this kind of self-confidence, self-confidence is an essential quality for a champion!" Sirius gave a thumbs up, "As the best Seeker in Hogwarts, you must have such self-confidence."

Sirius' words made Harry a little embarrassed, especially in front of Ron.He scratched his head, coughed twice, and changed the subject abruptly.

"Okay, Sirius, stop praising me like that, let's get down to business..." Harry's expression became serious, "You said you would tell us something."

"Of course, I agreed, didn't I?" Sirius said, "but what do you want to know? A lot has happened during this time... But before you ask those questions, there is one thing I feel it is necessary to tell you."

"what?"

"Scremgeour may not be able to stay in the position of Minister for too long..." Sirius said, "You should have read what happened in Azkaban from the previous newspapers, I can tell you clearly , none of the guards in Azkaban was spared that day, they were all killed..."

"Oh my God!"

The three of them were taken aback when they heard the words, and looked at each other in dismay, all of them gaping from ear to ear in surprise.Sirius also put away the smile on his face, nodded seriously, and said: "Yes, to be precise, there should be 23 people, including Edvard Bledsoe, the captain of the Azkaban guard, he He was the best Aoluo under Scrimgeour before, when he was the director of Aoluo's office..."

"So, the Death Eaters, the prisoners, escaped?" Harry asked.

"That's right." Sirius nodded, "Also, what's worrying is that they haven't shown up since they escaped, and even those sabotage actions have decreased a lot...There is no doubt that they are There's a big plan brewing."

"What plan?" Hermione asked.

"I don't know." Sirius shook his head, took a sip of butter beer, and said, "We haven't got any news, even that snotty one doesn't know anything."

"This is not a good phenomenon..." Hermione couldn't help sighing.

"Why?" Ron asked puzzled.

"You think, Si..." Hermione just started, and saw Sirius looking at her very seriously, and the words changed immediately, "Snot, he is the one who hides the deepest, right? If even He doesn't even know..."

Hearing this, Harry also reacted, frowned unconsciously, and said, "So, Voldemort..." Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Sirius.

He said very seriously: "Harry, I think someone must have told you not to pronounce this name."

"It's nothing, Sirius, didn't Dumbledore say the same?" After speaking, Harry glanced at Hermione next to her, her face was equally serious.

"It's different." Sirius said, "You should know that the mysterious man has cast a spell on his name, and once someone says that name, he will respond...Dumbledore is not afraid because he has enough power, and Harry, you need protection now..."

"I don't need protection!" Harry suddenly became agitated, which gave Sirius a headache.He could only wave his hands again and again, forcefully stopping the topic.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this..." he said, "Actually, what I want to tell you is that it is more dangerous outside than before. I hope that even if it is a holiday, I will not leave Hogwarts... here Probably the safest place in the UK right now."

"Not even Hogsmeade?" Ron asked.

"Yes." Sirius nodded, "This time you are allowed to come out, the Ministry of Magic, the Order of the Phoenix and the school have all provided strict protection, but as I said, the Ministry of Magic is likely to change now, This level of protection will most likely not be available in the future."

"And, don't forget Harry, your safety is the most important..."

Looking at the expression and eyes on Sirius' face, Harry couldn't help feeling a little irritated in his heart.He hated being treated like a fragile china doll, but he knew he was Voldemort's target.

After all, the prophecy also said that only one of him and Voldemort could survive...

Seeing Harry subdued, even though he knew it was only temporary, Sirius was really relieved.He showed a smiling face again and asked, "Okay, I've finished what I want to say, do you have any questions?"

"I want to ask!" Ron said immediately, "was there really a fire dragon that day, was it really Norbert?"

"Noble? It should be called Nobeta now." Sirius said with a smile, "Yes, it helped a lot!"

"Wow! It's so cool!" Ron sighed, and he had already begun to picture the overwhelming scene of dragon flames in his mind.

Sirius smiled and nodded at Ron, then looked at Harry, who was still frowning beside him, and couldn't help but feel a twinge in his heart.Sometimes, he really wished Harry didn't think so much, and he had fewer ideas.

But alas, this is not possible...

At this time, Hermione spoke and asked a question that everyone was dumbfounded.

"Sirius, is Dumbledore dying soon?"
