Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

A few nights later, a line appeared on Lockhart's note: The Department of Mysteries has been invaded, hurry to the headquarters for a meeting.

He immediately realized that Voldemort was ready to take the prophecy ball, he left the office, went to the door of the principal's office, took out the note, and the door opened. The door of the headmaster's office is for ordinary people to speak in secret, but they can enter directly with the note given by Dumbledore.

"Mr. Principal, why haven't you slept yet?" Lockhart asked in surprise, "Did you know that something would happen tonight."

Dumbledore raised his head and said with a smile, "I'm making a itinerary of all the places that Voldemort may have been to since childhood, and I can't sleep until twelve o'clock."

"..."

"Take it, hurry up." Dumbledore handed the kettle to Lockhart, "Don't let them wait for you."

Lockhart took the kettle, activated the door key, and came to the Order of the Phoenix after a whirlwind. There were lights and discussions in the conference room.

"What's the matter? Is the prophecy ball okay?" Lockhart sat down and asked quickly.

"Don't be nervous, Gilderoy, it's okay." Tonks comforted him.

"Well, it's okay, the Ministry of Magic cast a spell on the prophecy ball, and only the person involved can pick it up," Arthur explained, "Obviously, the mysterious man dare not come to the Ministry of Magic by himself."

"What happened then?"

"Emeline Vance was in charge of the vigil tonight, and then an unknown person broke into the Department of Mysteries. When she went to check, she saw a masked person leaving with a door key." Arthur replied.

"She is still guarding over there, and she will notify us immediately if anything happens," Lupin added.

Lockhart's mood suddenly became heavy, "This shows that the Ministry of Magic is easy to be invaded."

"It's inevitable, Gilderoy, there's too much traffic," Tonks said.

"Be lucky, Gilderoy, fortunately, the Department of Mysteries cannot enter through the door key." Blake said.

"I guess this time it's just stepping on the spot, and the next time it's going to be real." Lupin said, "Do you know who it is, it must be someone from the Ministry of Magic."

Arthur shook his head helplessly: "You know, the Department of Mysteries should be left unguarded at night, and I can't even report to the people above that I saw someone break into the Department of Mysteries, because I shouldn't be there, let alone. Forget the investigation."

"So, what can we do?" Lockhart asked. "Maybe take that prophecy ball away?"

"Then let Harry come," Black said.

"What's the secret of that prophecy ball?"

"I guess there is no secret, but it can't be easily taken away by the mysterious man, we have to make full use of this opportunity." Moody knocked on the table, "the mysterious man sent someone to get the prophecy ball, it must be possessed On someone else, you can't take it away, and the person possessed is definitely not an unknown person, and he must have some strength himself."

"That's right, and it's most likely someone who is buried in the Ministry of Magic by the mysterious man," Arthur said, "and most likely not an ordinary staff member."

Lupin immediately understood what Moody meant. "You mean, we used the Prophecy Ball as bait to kill the spies that Death Eaters and You-Know-Who got into the Ministry of Magic?"

"Good idea!" Blake was excited.

"Then," Lockhart remembered, "the fireplace was connected to what Arthur said last time? And the port key to the Ministry of Magic?"

"That's right, and it's Fireplace No. 1, quite close to the Department of Mysteries."

"That's easy, Arthur, you continue to work with Tonks and the others to keep watch over the Department of Mysteries," Moody commanded, "if anything happens, tell Dumbledore with a note, and then we immediately use the fireplace and The door key enters the field to besieged."

"What if the mysterious man came in person?" Lupin said anxiously.

Moody glanced at Lupin, "Dumbledore didn't tell you when he gave you that note, tearing up the note means rescue is needed. Will he find a way to get to the scene?"

"He didn't tell me! No, but how did the Ministry of Magic explain it to them?" Lockhart said dissatisfiedly, "We are making such a big deal on their territory."

"I never worry about that kind of thing," Blake said disdainfully, "I position myself as Dumbledore's thug."

"..." Lockhart was speechless, looking at Moody, "What do you think?"

"It's best to leave the field as soon as possible. If not, let Dumbledore explain it." Moody actually said the same.

"Okay, then I'm Dumbledore's thug." Lockhart was helpless.

Moody stood up: "Okay, that's it, let's go back and get ready."
