Chapter 610: The Journey to Find the Horcrux
"Yes! We don't have any salary!"
Sirius glanced at Dumbledore and said loudly: "Even the headquarters of our organization is the ancestral home of the Black family that I contributed."
Dumbledore: "..."
Andy glanced at Sirius... This resentment is really big!
After a few jokes, Sirius turned slightly and said seriously: "Professor, Andy, come in and talk!"
As soon as he approached the house, Andy saw Harry, Ron, George, and Fred leaning on the railing of the second-floor stairs looking down. Harry shouted excitedly: "Are Andy and the professor here?"
Andy waved his hand and smiled: "Long time no see, how was your summer vacation?"
"It was terrible!"
Ron complained: "I can only stay at home for the whole summer vacation and can't go anywhere."
Mrs. Weasley came out of the kitchen. After hearing what Ron said, she raised her head and scolded: "Ron! Everyone stayed in the room, but you are the only one who kept complaining."
Ron: "..."
Ron didn't dare to contradict Mrs. Weasley, so he could only whisper to Harry: "George and Fred also complained!"
After Mrs. Weasley scolded Ron, she instantly put on a warm smile, "Andy, long time no see!"
As she said, she gave Andy a warm hug again.
"Ma'am, hello!" Andy said politely.
This is the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, and many members of the Order of the Phoenix live here.
However, at this time, most people are at work, and only children and a few unemployed people stay here.
For example, Mrs. Weasley, Lupin, and Sirius.
One is a housewife, one is difficult to find a suitable job because of her werewolf identity, and the other... maybe he is just rich and doesn't want to work!
After a few pleasantries, Sirius was about to invite Andy and Dumbledore to the conference room for a detailed discussion, and saw Dumbledore looking upstairs and said: "I'm here to find Harry this time."
"Looking for me?" Harry was stunned when he heard this.
"Yes!"
Dumbledore nodded slightly, "Harry, you have to go with us."
Sirius asked with a serious face: "Professor, what happened?"
This scene is not like an ordinary trivial matter.
What other major events in the magic world can make Andy, Dumbledore, and Harry act together?
Did Voldemort launch a general attack?
Dumbledore said apologetically, "Sorry, Sirius... This is confidential!"
Andy looked at the few people, thinking that the work of the Order of the Phoenix is really not easy.
Not only does the boss often disappear, but he also keeps everything secret. Not only do the employees not get paid, but they are even in danger of their lives when they work.
This is a group of people who work for love!
Andy glanced around casually and suddenly saw Lupin.
This is really strange!
Andy suddenly realized that he had forgotten such an important thing before.
In the third grade, in order to test the effect of the invisibility cloak, Andy suggested to Dumbledore that Lupin use the invisibility cloak to see if he could avoid Voldemort's curse.
Later, things were too busy, and Andy forgot about it.
Now seeing Lupin, Andy suddenly remembered... He spent a whole year safely!
Voldemort's curse is invalid!
The invisibility cloak... It really has the effect of avoiding the curse!
"Professor Lupin..."
Andy suddenly asked, "Will you still teach us next semester?"
Lupin: "?"
Lupin was stunned when he heard this, and then said kindly, "Sorry, Dumbledore suggested that I should not continue to serve."
Professor Lupin turned to look at Sirius, "However, you already have a new professor, I hope you can get along well next semester."
Sirius said proudly, "Don't worry, Andy! I have long forgotten about your imprisonment of me before, and I don't care at all!"
Andy: "..."
You said that, just to seek personal gain?
"I think Professor Snape must be very happy!" Andy said with a smile.
"He is indeed very happy!"
Sirius didn't care at all, "We have not seen each other for many years. We have a good relationship like one person. He also enthusiastically invited me to organize the duel club next semester."
"I am looking forward to it!" Andy smiled.
Maybe it will be very lively next semester!
As he was talking, Harry had already walked down from upstairs, followed by Ron and the Weasley twins who looked curious.
"Professor, where are we going?" Harry asked.
"You'll know when we get there!" Dumbledore stretched out his arm and motioned Andy and Harry to come up.
Snap!
The three of them disappeared instantly after the Apparition was activated.
...
On a rock protruding from the sea, Andy, Harry, and Dumbledore appeared out of thin air.
Opposite the three of them was a rocky island.
The island was not big and was black in color. It looked like a black boulder extending from the bottom of the sea.
From a distance, there seemed to be a dark cave on the island.
"Professor, it's really hard for you!"
Andy said in amazement: "I can find such a secret place."
Andy had already guessed the purpose of this trip.
Voldemort's Horcrux!
Only Voldemort's Horcrux could make Dumbledore pay so much attention to it that he even put aside the upcoming World Cup final and disappeared for dozens of days in a row.
only……
Andy glanced at Harry.
It's enough to bring Harry here, why bring me again?
Want to arrange for me again?
"Professor, where is this place?" Harry asked with the same curiosity.
"Voldemort has a sense of ritual. He will not randomly choose the carrier of the Horcrux, nor will he just find a place to hide the Horcrux."
Dumbledore looked at the stone island in front of him and slowly narrated: "After graduating from Hogwarts, Voldemort went to work in Borgin Burke's shop. During that time, he had been inquiring about the relics of the Big Four. "
"After much investigation, I found out that Voldemort murdered a man named Hepzibah Smith and took a locket from him while he was working in Borgin Burke's shop."
After a pause, Dumbledore continued: "This is the place where Voldemort visited when he was a child. I checked and found that there is very powerful protective magic in the cave."
What a hard work!
Andy thought to himself.
You don't need to think about it to know that it must be very difficult to investigate something so long ago, and sometimes you even have to use some unconventional means.
For example... get a memory.
"Professor, shall we go in now?" Harry asked.
"Yes!" Dumbledore nodded.
"Wait a moment!"
Andy suddenly stopped, and then said: "Don't we need to make some preparations before going in?"
