Chapter 1806 A War Without Winners (Two Hundred and Fifty-Six)
"Am I here too early?"
Under the cover of the night, Will Jones, who was hiding under the Disillusionment Spell, lowered the height of the flying broom under his crotch and landed beside the reef on the edge of Azkaban Island. He carefully observed the Azkaban Fortress with the help of night vision binoculars to confirm whether his arrival triggered the alarm.
"I'm here!"
He also took the time to leave a message on Nelson's communication bookmark.
However, as soon as Will sent the message, he was surprised to find that someone came out of the entrance of Azkaban Prison with an oil lamp, and kept flashing light towards the night outside the prison, as if greeting him.
Could it be Nelson?
But...he didn't reply.
While Will was still hesitating whether he should respond, a familiar voice suddenly came from the fortress in the distance under the night.
"I know you're here, no need to hide, come out." The man shouted at him.
"This..."
Will was shocked. Azkaban Prison was indeed under close surveillance by the Ministry of Magic, but he always felt that the voice was familiar, as if it was Neville Longbottom who often provided them with intelligence from the Ministry of Magic.
"No need to hide. The warning was triggered when you first arrived." Neville's voice continued to come from a distance,
"Don't worry, the guards in Azkaban have been transferred in the afternoon."
Will hesitated for a moment, left a message for Nelson, and then walked out from behind the hidden reef, flew over on a flying broom, and did not forget to shoot sparks into the sky along the way to remind the other party that he had arrived.
He was not afraid of death, so he was naturally not afraid of being betrayed.
It was like stepping on Nelson's trap first.
"To be honest, you came much earlier than I expected."
Neville smiled and greeted Will who appeared in his field of vision as if he had met an old friend.
"What's going on?"
After Will got off the flying broom, he still held the wand tightly and observed the surroundings vigilantly, then he looked at Neville opposite him and asked with a frown.
"Kingsley knew that Nelson would come, so he transferred the prison guards of Azkaban before this afternoon, which was specially to give you extra time and space." Neville looked up and down at the familiar man in front of him, who seemed to be the one next to Nelson.
"It seems that our revenge action has been tacitly approved by Mr. Minister?" Will's expression was extremely strange.
"Nelson, where is he?" Neville asked with a slightly raised eyebrow, "Is he still on the way?"
"He doesn't seem to have arrived yet?"
Will hesitated for a moment and casually asked about what happened during their private gathering. Seeing that Neville could answer the question, he knew that the other party should be a real person.
"You don't have to be like this." Neville understood the other party's vigilance and smiled to comfort him, "I think the minister must have made some secret deal with Nelson."
"You alone?"
Will didn't respond, not because he didn't believe it, but because Kingsley's whole family was dead, no one could let it go easily.
He would definitely take revenge.
"Of course not, Seamus is here too, he's sleeping soundly in the lounge." Neville said with a smile, "To be honest, I've always been curious about how he can sleep, the environment here is much worse than I thought."
"I didn't fall asleep, I just took a short break to recharge my energy!"
A voice came from inside, Seamus Finnigan appeared at the entrance of the fortress, scratched his head a little impatiently, and greeted the guests in like a host, "And can you please not stand there?"
"So, there are only two of you here?"
Will took the warm butterbeer handed by Neville, but didn't mean to touch it. Instead, he looked carefully at the lounge and couldn't help asking, "Are you really not afraid that the prisoners inside will escape?"
"No, we gave the prisoners here dinner mixed with life and death water. Without the antidote, it is impossible for them to wake up in a short time." Seamus Finnigan covered his yawn with his hand and continued, "Of course, Umbridge is still awake, we deliberately left her to you."
"Are you really going to completely clean up the prisoners here next?" Neville asked suddenly. Although he had a premonition, he himself didn't like killing, but Neville could still understand Nelson and Will's actions, because he also wanted to seek revenge on Bellatrix Lestrange. It was a pity that the girl disappeared at some point, and even the Death Eaters didn't know her whereabouts.
"Mr. Minister wants us to do that, doesn't he?" Will's expression was extremely strange, "I remember he said that he couldn't avenge us, but he could create opportunities for us to retaliate."
No mistakes, one song, one post, one content, one look!
"I think Nelson and Kingsley made some kind of deal!" Seamus Finnigan sneered, "It's a mutual use, but Kingsley has really changed a lot since he became the minister."
"Would you mind taking me around?" Will glanced at Nelson's reply, looked up and said to the two of them, "I want to meet our Professor Umbridge and give her a big surprise."
There are not many prisoners in Azkaban prison now. Since Kingsley made a deal with Nelson, anyone with a minor problem will be "educated" and released from prison after paying a fine.
In fact, even if you can't pay back the Galleons, you can owe them first and pay them back slowly. If you commit the same offense again, you will have to pay double the fine. If you commit the offense for the third time, you will be severely punished for defying the laws of the Ministry of Magic.
Therefore, all the guys who can be imprisoned here are dangerous elements that endanger society. This is also the main reason why Kingsley directly threw the prison to Nelson, hoping to use the other party's hands to clean up the prisoners in Azkaban Prison.
After all, even if Kingsley didn't do that, Nelson and his gang would most likely go to Azkaban Prison to kill Umbridge.
There is no need for the two sides to have a conflict.
For the group of vicious prisoners in Azkaban Prison, it is really not worthwhile to risk losing your life.
However, Kingsley never thought that Grey would risk his life to bring his whole family, otherwise he might consider whether to do so first.
"Good evening, professor. We are here to visit you."
While speaking, Will had already raised his wand and pointed at Umbridge, who was resting on the bed, muttering something softly.
The next moment, a shrill scream rang out in the dead silence of the prison. The famous Umbridge was hung upside down in the air, looking at the three figures that appeared in front of her cell door with horror.
"Heartbreaking!"
Will quickly moved his wand away, looked at Umbridge's completely distorted face, and said gently, "You don't have to look at me with such hatred. When you killed my whole family through the Muggle-Born Registration Committee, you were even more vicious than me!"
Happy New Year!
