Chapter 1904 Uneasy Nobetta

Old Aslan pushed open the door of the Hogwarts Great Hall in silence.

When many people gathered around to ask him questions, he didn't answer immediately, but after thinking for a while, he waved his hands to everyone who gathered here according to his previous words:

"Pack up and prepare to leave Hogwarts."

"What? Why?" Hearing what he said, many wizards couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

"Don't ask any more," said old Aslan. "In short, pack up your things and leave immediately. Let's... go south, to the Yorkshire Dales first."

Before he finished speaking, he turned around decisively and walked to the lawn outside, as if he planned to wait there for everyone to pack up and go out to gather.

After watching the old Aslan's behavior, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, although they were all confused, but out of respect and trust for the venerable old knight, they moved one after another.

About half an hour later, everyone regrouped on the grass in the vestibule and stood in front of old Aslan.

"Old Sir, although... But you must let us all know the reason?" The middle-aged wizard who was named Quan as old Aslan's assistant and helped him deal with many trivial matters couldn't help saying at this time, "Just now, what did McClain tell you?"

This sudden departure is a very confusing thing for everyone. If you look at it logically, it might be understood that old Aslan and Maca were discussing some new plan by the lake.

However, judging by the expression of the old knight when he came back, it seemed that this was not the case at all.

But for some reason, although old Aslan was treated very rudely by the other party at Maca's side, he didn't seem to have the intention of telling the actual experience at the moment.

When the other party asked, he just shook his head, and then said:

"The Yorkshire Dales are at the junction of the north and the south of the UK, and it is also an obvious junction point for the distribution density of living corpses in the information given by Miss Granger - coupled with the easy-to-defend terrain, we moved there as a new base, It is more suitable to cooperate with the Rebel Alliance to implement the plan to retake Birmingham."

"But—" the wizard looked back at Hogwarts Castle, and couldn't help saying, "Isn't it all in vain that we have worked so hard to build up to now? This is the school where all of us used to be.

It's Hogwarts! "

However, old Aslan frowned slightly and said:

"In the final analysis, this castle is just a thing. Is Hogwarts just such a superficial existence in our hearts?"

After all, he seemed to glance in the direction of the lake inadvertently, and then turned around with a wave of his hand.

"Let's go! Leave it to Mr. McLean. We still have a more important task than repairing a castle on our shoulders. Don't waste time."

Before he finished speaking, he went straight to the school gate and took the lead.

Seeing that he had clearly made up his mind, everyone had no choice but to look back reluctantly, and followed his footsteps one after another.

But at this time, Kate, who had been standing in the crowd and was puzzled and confused with everyone... was the "Kate" who led a small team to Weymouth to contact Hermione some time ago. Statham" finally seemed to have remembered something, and ran two quick steps to catch up to the side of old Aslan.

"Wait...wait first..."

Seeing that old Aslan kept walking, she chased him a few more steps, and then simply grabbed him by the sleeve.

"Grandpa! I said wait! Mr. Weasley and the others haven't come back yet!"

Listening to Ms. Statham's urgent address, she is the granddaughter of old Aslan? Not to mention that she didn't tell Hermione about it at the time, and even the companions who were summoned later didn't hear about it.

"Kate..."

Old Aslan's footsteps finally stopped, but not because of the Charlie Weasley mentioned by Ms. Statham, but because of her "Grandpa".

"Did you forgive Grandpa?" The old man looked at her and asked hesitantly.

Perhaps it was because the scene in front of them made everyone feel quite puzzled, and there was curiosity hidden in the puzzlement, so everyone stopped and watched silently from behind.

"Is Ms. Statham actually the granddaughter of the old knight? I always thought that she, like us, is an ordinary alumni who got together spontaneously and by chance!"

"Don't talk, look at the situation first..."

There were whispered conversations like this one after another in the crowd, but it soon fell silent again because Ms. Statham spoke.

"Is this the time to say this? I just want to remind you that Mr. Weasley is out on patrol and hasn't returned yet! They're people I hired from Weymouth, and no matter what happens, I can't just leave them there here!"

"It's not about leaving them here," said old Aslan, shaking his head. "Isn't Mr. McLean here? You should know that they are friends."

Hearing his words, Ms. Statham seemed to have finally realized something, and subconsciously glanced in the direction of the lake.

"Grandpa, you and him—"

"Let's go!"

Old Aslan raised his hand, interrupting her question.

...

When old Aslan and the others were leaving from the school gate, Charlie was still flying against the wind on the other side of the school on Nobeta.

He has handed over the closer area to the two teams, and he has come to the farther area for investigation.

There is no doubt that Hogwarts is a place that means a lot to many people. This is true for old Aslan and his group of "returned alumni", and it is also true for Charlie, Hermione and others.

Because of this, Hermione specially sent him and two teams to follow Ms. Statham here. After all, Hermione believed that they would return to this place sooner or later.

And right now, as Charlie, who was sent to ensure the safety of the school and assist the old Aslan and the others in rebuilding the campus, he is naturally doing his best to "look after" this old place that he misses so much.

"I don't know if Maca will find time to come back and take a look." Charlie sat on the back of Nobeta's neck, looking at the remaining mountains and the fog that could be seen in the distance, and suddenly muttered, " Norberta, what do you think?"

"Gululu—"

The fire dragon Nobeta seemed to understand what he said, growled, and didn't know what he was talking about—at least, even Charlie, who was proficient in fire dragon science, couldn't understand the language of dragons.

But at this moment, Nobeta suddenly turned her head, and then hovered around, screaming with some anxiety.
