Chapter 1102 Harry in the Fireplace

Different from the short-lived calm at 12 Grimmauld Place, the recent atmosphere in the wizarding world is unusually weird.

Since the announcement of Dumbledore's defection from Hogwarts, there has been no update on him from the Ministry of Magic or the Daily Prophet.

Fudge seemed suddenly to lose his purpose in life and not know what to do.

The decisive victory was not achieved as expected, the bad situation has not changed, and the rest is troublesome.

Umbridge has disappeared, Hogwarts education reform has come to a complete standstill, escaped Death Eaters are still at large, people march every day, voices of distrust and dissatisfaction are getting louder, and many controlled dark creatures are beginning to move.

The activities of werewolves became more and more frequent. On the night of the full moon not long ago, they appeared and attacked a small village.

Many people swear they have seen vampires near their homes, or even been bitten by them in their sleep.

And then there are the dementors, horrible monsters that no longer seem to be entirely confined to Azkaban.

Some even say they have seen dragons and giants near the coast...

In short, it was a mess, and the wizarding world seemed to have retreated to the chaotic and dark Middle Ages.

Of course, none of these things together can compare to the fact that the Ministry of Magic is going to war with the centaurs, which makes people feel absurd and unbelievable.

When Rita Skeeter broke the news, people became furious.

They couldn't believe that with so many troubles left unsolved, Fudge wanted to beat the centaur!

Is he crazy?

In such an atmosphere, 12 Grimmauld Place welcomed an unexpected visitor.

That night, Ivan and Hermione were sitting around the kitchen table reading a book as usual, and Harry's head suddenly appeared in a green flame.

"Thank goodness you two are here!" said Harry, suddenly relieved.

He was looking up from the kitchen fireplace at the long wooden dining table and saw Alvin and Hermione sitting together.

"Harry!" Hermione immediately stood up from the chair, looking very surprised, "What's wrong with you, are you okay?"

"I'm fine! How are you?" Harry said, but he didn't look too well. "I just wanted to know, um, I mean, I wanted to talk to Sirius..."

"He's upstairs, with Kreacher!" Ivan said, and looked at Harry again, "I'll call him down."

Ivan left the kitchen, and Hermione knelt in front of the fire.

"Well, where's Elaine?" Harry asked deliberately in a relaxed tone, "Why didn't I see her?"

"She's sleeping upstairs!" said Hermione.

"Oh, so you've been here since you left school?" said Harry, looking around.

He felt a little nauseous, using the Floo net in this way, and after spinning around, it felt like a very hot scarf was wrapped around his head.

Moreover, kneeling on the hard stone floor for a long time has begun to hurt.

"Yeah, we've been staying here for the past few days and haven't gone anywhere!" Hermione asked, "Harry, how's school going?"

"Not so good. After you left, Hogwarts became a mess. The only good news is that Fudge couldn't find Umbridge, but he set up a special reform team to enter the school." Harry said, " You may not think of..."

"We read the paper!" said Hermione quickly, "knew about it."

"Yeah, but you definitely didn't expect that Malfoy's father was also in this group, and he appeared in the Hogwarts auditorium yesterday morning." Harry said mockingly, "You and Ivan should really see Malfoy's expression , he's overjoyed!"

"In this case, you should obey the school rules." Hermione said, "You can't give them a reason to trouble you."

"Forget it, Hermione, even if I don't do anything, they will make trouble for me." Harry said, "I don't want to stay at Hogwarts, since Dumbledore and you left, Fudge and magic The Ministry began to fully intervene in the teaching and management of the school. You have no idea how many special education orders the special reform team announced in a day. They are no better than Umbridge, and they even ask Slytherin students to maintain order in the school. Call it the Special Investigation Operations Team."

"Special investigation team?"

"It is said that it was Umbridge's idea before, and she mentioned it in her heart to Fudge. These investigative action teams composed of trusted students from the Ministry of Magic maintain the order of the students, and even have the right to detain the prefects. point."

"This is ridiculous, the prefect system..."

"It has existed in name only, this is the current state of Hogwarts, everything is in chaos." Harry said, with an eager expression on his face, "I don't want to stay here, if I go now, I can..."

"No, Harry!" Hermione interrupted hastily, "You can't leave Hogwarts."

"Harry, I can understand how you feel now, but you need to stay there." Sirius followed Ivan into the kitchen quickly, just when he heard this sentence, he also imitated Hermione and knelt in front of the fireplace , with a soothing tone, "I know it's hard, and I'm not teaching you to follow the rules, but you have to learn to be patient."

"Patience?!" Harry's tone was a bit strange, as if he was on the verge of breaking out, "How long will I have to endure?!"

"It's almost there!" Ivan said.

"You all left Hogwarts for the Order of the Phoenix, leaving me here alone..." Harry raised his voice.

"We had to leave, and besides, we didn't leave you alone, and Ron."

"I had a fight with him last night," said Harry, falling silent for a moment.

"Why?" Hermione looked at him worriedly.

"Because of the d.a. activity, after the two of you are gone, I want to reorganize it." Harry sighed, "But the current situation is that some people are willing to continue, and some people want to quit, after all The Ministry of Magic announced that Dumbledore's criminal evidence included such things as forming an army, and everyone is very worried..."

"Ron wants to quit?!" said Hermione in surprise. "He won't!"

"He didn't say that clearly, but it's actually the same. Lavender was very worried and didn't know what to say to him, so he came to me and told me that we had better not do activities recently, and he didn't come to the rally the night before. "Harry said, "And Qiu's friend, that guy named Marietta seemed to be terrified, if she wasn't afraid of the magic left by Ivan, she would definitely go to inform. Keep talking about her. In short, nothing goes well."

"Then is there anyone going to the D.A. rally?"

"Fred, George, Jordan, Brother Colin, Neville, Ginny are still here, and Angelina and others are still here, but none of them have a good relationship with Lavender. There are students who work in the Ministry of Magic, and they all quit." Harry sighed, "Luna is left in Ravenclaw College, and Ginny's boyfriend, he was probably dragged here by her. That first-year girl from Hufflepuff College is the one who played Quidditch very well..." Browse the reading address:
