Chapter 1921 Charlie Returns
When Percy heard the obviously abnormal whistling wind coming from the air, he immediately thought of the "flying zombie" that Harry had mentioned.
However, it would be too bad if it really came from flying zombies—unlike the army of living corpses on the ground whose main body is ordinary living corpses, the individuals that can fly in the air are all evolved. And the strength that has been advanced and the ability to fly, this is definitely a very difficult and extremely dangerous enemy for the conventional modern wizard group.
"Enemy! Get up, go to the defense line... No, go to the open space in the center of the camp to line up!"
After greeting his resting partners, Percy immediately rushed towards the material storage tent not far away—he wanted to get a broom first.
However, when he ran and scanned the air, trying to find the target who heard the wind, he saw a familiar figure.
"Fire dragon?" Percy paused suddenly, looked up at the northern sky, and said in a daze, "Nobeta...it's Charlie!"
After checking the sky behind Nobetta a few more times and confirming that there were no enemies following them, Percy stopped everyone who was about to run towards the center of the camp.
"The alarm is off...it's Charlie, it's Charlie who's back." He opened his arms to greet him, "Go back! I saw it, it's Charlie... go back and rest!"
Not long after, Percy went back to the entrance of the camp after driving everyone else back to the unloading area of the pier.
"Charlie, why are you back? Although I sent a message to suspend the plan, it seems that I didn't ask you to come back?"
After all, he was his own brother, so Percy spoke a lot more casually. But before the words fell, he even went forward to give Charlie a strong hug, and then continued:
"But... to be honest, it's about time you came back... Oh, isn't this Ms. Statham?"
When Percy saw the witch who was also coming down from the dragon Nobeta's back following Charlie, he couldn't help but raised his eyebrows, showing a thoughtful expression.
"Well, she decided to come back with me to help everyone defend against the living corpses." Charlie didn't care about Percy's expression, and after patting Percy's arm, he just said, "I came back because..."
It can be seen that Charlie was about to mention Maca, but after looking around at the other wizards who gradually gathered in the camp,
Still put this topic aside.
I saw him pursing his lips, and then turned around very naturally:
"Why 'It's about time'? What happened?"
"Oh," Percy sighed, and while pulling him towards the tent of the temporary command post, he shook his head and said, "You should have read the letter I sent to Hogwarts, right? The plan to retake Birmingham has been suspended." ——But I didn't specify the reason for doing so in the letter. In fact..."
As he said this, he suddenly glanced around, then leaned close to Charlie's ear and whispered:
"In fact, it was because Hermione and Harry suddenly decided to leave here, go to Winchester, and find a way to meet Maca."
"what?"
When Charlie heard this, he frowned and said:
"Then... have they already set off?"
"I left a few days ago," Percy scratched his head and said, "Ron and Ginny also followed them—this was a decision made by Hermione and Miss Lovegood, and Harry naturally agreed, so I can't stop it either."
"This—" Charlie frowned, with a complex expression, "then I'm afraid their trip was in vain."
"What do you mean?" Percy couldn't help being a little puzzled when he heard him say that.
"Anyway, let's go in and talk."
Before the words were finished, Charlie grabbed Percy's arm in turn, dragged him to walk a few steps, and then rushed into the command tent.
Ms. Statham, who was walking beside the two of them, immediately followed after seeing this.
After Percy closed the door, Charlie said a little uneasy:
"I originally wanted to discuss this matter with Hermione and the others, but since none of them are here, I will only talk to you. Because I think there are still many doubts about it, so remember not to let your wife Many people know!"
Having said that, Charlie paused for a while before saying:
"Maca went to Hogwarts, and...seriously, he seemed to be very strange. Didn't you just ask me why I came back? Actually, I was 'driven' back by Maca... ..."
So, Charlie told Percy the whole process of meeting Maca at Hogwarts. After he finished talking about leaving Hogwarts, he added:
"...Later, I followed the old jazz to the Yorkshire Dales and helped them settle down. Then I set off with Kate and came back here."
"Well."
After hearing about Charlie's experience of meeting Maca, Percy immediately fell into deep thought. He didn't even have time to pay attention to Charlie's habitual calling of Ms. Statham by her name.
After a while, he couldn't help but looked at Charlie again, hesitatingly said:
"Could it be... not Maca?"
"No... I mean, probably not." Charlie explained, "Not many people knew about the transport of Noble back then—even you didn't know, did you?"
"But 'memory' is not a very solid thing," Percy said, but quickly shook his head again. It's really a big problem!"
After sighing like this, Percy pondered for a while, then looked up at Charlie again as if he suddenly remembered something, and said:
"By the way, did you mention just now that the father and daughter of the Blois family are also by Maca's side?"
"Well, yes," Charlie nodded, "or to be more precise, 'there are only the two of them around Maca'."
Regarding this, Percy thought about it for a while, then nodded slightly and said:
"Let's do this! If we just ponder this matter here, we will definitely not be able to figure out anything - we have to discuss it with other people. And who is more appropriate to talk to... I think, probably only Blois The old housekeeper at home."
"Old butler?"
"Yes," Percy said, "Since Maca refused to say anything, and forced you to leave Hogwarts. If we want to know the truth, we can only start with other people around him It's gone, isn't it?"
"we can only do this."
Charlie thought about it, then nodded.
"Then you stay here, Kate and I will go to Belgium."
