Homecoming from Hogwarts

"Sirius!"

Harry finally found his backbone and shouted excitedly. He subconsciously wanted to rush over, but just as he moved, the wand pointing at his temple became more powerful and it hurt him!
"Don't move, unless you don't want to live anymore!"

Dawlish's deep voice was full of menace.

Boom!
"When I was in the Ministry, I would never allow my Aurors to be so mean and vile!"

Moody limped past Remus and Sirius, who were holding their staffs side by side. His face, covered with hideous scars and a broken nose, was distorted as he glanced at the Aurors who had quickly gathered in front of Dawlish and Harry, his blue magic eyes swiveling around in his eye sockets.

Striking the floor with his cane, Mad-Eye Moody roared,
"Since when did the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic become the same as the dark wizards, using a child as a shield!"

The pressure from the legendary Auror made the younger Aurors hesitate for a while, and their expressions showed hesitation.

"Sorry, Alastor!"

Dawlish was unmoved. He panted slightly and said coldly,
"I don't see any children here. The Aurors from the Ministry of Magic are here to arrest a suspect in a murder case!"

"what?!"

Harry was frightened by Moody's appearance, and just as he realized that the person in front of him should be the real Mad-Eye Moody, not the impostor Vitia Cleona.

The words that the short-haired Auror who subdued him shouted out in a stern voice shocked Harry.

"A suspect in a murder case. No, you must be mistaken. I'm not!"

"Oh, that's not your call, Mr. Potter!"

Dawlish grinned fiercely, looking at Sirius with murderous intent on his face and his companions who came here with him.
"It's you, you came here through the fireplace of this Muggle. Very good, Black, I think you know that this is a serious violation of the law. Of course, this crime is relatively light compared to your openly gathering to try to resist the Aurors who are carrying out the arrest mission!"

Sirius's expression suddenly twisted, and he was ready to attack directly, but Remus stopped him in time.

"Wait, Sirius!"

Remus stared at Dawlish coldly.
"You are right. It is indeed illegal to prevent Aurors from carrying out their arrest missions, Dawlish, but!"

Remus' voice suddenly became heavier.
"This is based on the premise that the mission you are carrying out is legal. Now, I only see that the Ministry of Magic is shamelessly using conspiracy to persecute an innocent child!"

Harry stared at Remus in a daze. He had never seen Remus with such a terrifying expression before. He was so violent and full of savagery that he even thought Remus was going to turn into a werewolf!

"You heard what Minister Fudge told the media at the press conference this morning!"

Dawlish held Harry's hands tightly, unmoved.
"The Ministry of Magic has obtained key evidence that Harry James Potter is involved in a murder case. The Auror Office is following the instructions of the Minister of Magic, which is completely reasonable and legal!"

Dawlish looked at Sirius with contempt and disgust.

"But you, Black, as an Auror in the Auror Office, openly rebelled against the Ministry of Magic. Just wait, you will be able to return to your 'homeland' soon!"

"Oh, you've become much more eloquent since you followed Fudge, right, Dawlish? I'd like to see."

"Shut up, Sirius!"

Moody turned around and yelled at Sirius,
"Did you forget that Dumbledore asked you to stay calm!"

"Professor Dumbledore knows too. What did he say?"

Harry shouted excitedly, but when he finished shouting, he suddenly felt dazed.

Ugh?
Did he forget something in this house?
"Tell me, what is your evidence, and who is the Muggle who was murdered!"

After ordering the furious Sirius to shut up, Moody roared again.
"Potter has the right to know all this, right? Otherwise, you are committing an illegal attack and you will never leave this house!"

Although technically it was the first time he had seen the real Mad-Eye Moody, Harry felt a surge of gratitude towards him.

He understood now. Remus was right, this was a conspiracy of the Ministry of Magic, not a real crime on his part.

Professor Blaine's words to the Dursleys last night also came to mind.
He had no need to worry at all. Since Sirius, Remus and others had already arrived, there was no way he would be taken to Azkaban!
"This is a major case."

Dalish still did not reveal more.

"Until all doubts in the case are clarified, we have the right to keep it secret. Harry James Potter must return to the Ministry with us for investigation. I warn you again--"

Dalish looked at Sirius and his group coldly.

"Back off immediately, or you will all be arrested!"

"Oh!"

Moody was also really angry. He bared his teeth at Dawlish.
"You want to put me in Azkaban too? That's interesting. Come on and give it a try, you bastard!"

The tense atmosphere in the air was like a bowstring stretched to its limit, ready to break in an instant. Harry became nervous again, thinking that a fierce battle was inevitable!
Da da da
Just when everyone was about to take action, footsteps were suddenly heard on the stairs!

The footsteps sounded soft, but to the ears of the crowd on the first floor, it sounded deafening like the sound of a huge bell!
The man walking down the stairs looked like he had just gotten up. He was wearing navy blue silk pajamas, with a towel draped over his right arm and a toothbrush cup in his left hand. Maybe because he had just gotten up, his soft silver hair was a little messier than usual.

The expressions of the two groups of people who were confronting each other on the first floor changed subtly after seeing him coming downstairs!

Amosta walked down the first floor, yawned, and without looking at the two parties who were on the verge of a showdown, he walked into the bathroom holding his toothbrush cup, turned around and slowly closed the glass door.

Then, there was movement in the bathroom.

The sound of water running from the tap, the sound of a toothbrush rubbing against teeth, the sound of a towel being wet and wrung out.
Time passes in silence every second.

Sirius and Remus looked at each other, the corners of their mouths twitched a few times, and then they put down their wands silently.

Dalux
As if he had suffered a great insult, his broad cheeks turned red, his breathing became rapid, and the big hand holding Harry's wrist tightened further, but the wand pointing at Harry's temple trembled slightly.

A refreshing exhalation was heard from the bathroom, and then Amosta turned the door handle and walked out of the bathroom.

"Let go."

Amosta's light purple eyes finally reflected Dawlish's angry face, and he said calmly.

"Brian, this is from the Minister of Magic."

Boom!

Before Dalish could finish his words, Amosta's calm eyes suddenly flashed with the power of thunder!

A hurricane-like gust of wind suddenly emerged from his body, stronger than the wind that Sirius had just created when he blew up the Dursleys' fireplace, and several Aurors who were caught in the direct hit were knocked directly into the air.

Click!

The floor where Amostha was standing suddenly collapsed!
Harry's green eyes, which were staring at Professor Brain, only left a series of blue afterimages, and then--
Bang!
There was another heavy crash that shook the house, and Harry suddenly found that his hands, which were bound behind his back, could move, and the wand at his temple had left his skin.

Swish.
Harry quickly turned his head to look, and his breath was held in place at one glance!

Professor Brains had his back to him, so Harry couldn't see his expression, but...
Professor Brian's open right hand covered Dawlish's face, and Dawlish, who was unconscious or even dead, had most of his head sunk into the wooden wall!
A trickle of blood slowly flowed along the broken wooden board and onto the ground, gradually forming a river.

Sirius, Remus, Tonks, Harry, Alastor. Others, including the Aurors brought by Dawlish.

Everyone stared in amazement as Amosta pressed Dalish against the wall.
This scene will be engraved in their memory and will never be forgotten!
