Chapter 1320 Bad News

"What's wrong?" Ginny asked, looking at Hermione. "Did you fail the exam?"

"Oh, come on!" Ron wailed, leaned out and snatched Hermione's report card, and laid it flat on the table, "Oh my God, you're still disappointed, aren't you? "

Everyone's eyes were wide open, looking at the report card in surprise, and Hermione shook her head. Reading at midnight

Mrs. Weasley was quite satisfied with Ron's grades at first, which were better than Fred and George combined, but she looked at Ivan's report card, and then turned to look at Hermione's report card. Check out Ron's...

Really, there is no harm without comparison.

As long as you pass, you can get the O.W.Ls certificate.

However, the gold content and meaning of the certificates are completely different, and the corresponding N.E.W.Ts classes that can be applied for are also completely different.

Hogwarts divides the magic courses in the upper grades very carefully, and each professor has different requirements.

It can be said that with Ron's grades, he will basically say goodbye to Ivan and Hermione next semester.

Two years later, the jobs and paths they can choose after graduating from Hogwarts are completely different.

The trajectories of life may no longer have intersections, and they will go further and further away from each other.

The only thing that can be missed is the memory of the time spent studying in school, which is getting paler and paler.

Ron didn't notice this, and he was yelling for Mrs. Weasley to come over with sausages to celebrate them being N.E.W.Ts.

In the next few weeks, Ivan and the others never left the range of the Burrow Garden.

He spent a lot of time discussing with Hermione the courses they were going to apply for next semester, sorting out all the items and magic books on his body, having two long talks with Fleur, and playing with Harry and the others in the orchard of the Weasley family Quidditch.

In Aiwen's memory, he hasn't been so leisurely for a long time. If it weren't for the almost daily reports of people missing or even dying in the newspapers, as well as other bizarre events, this summer vacation could have been very happy and peaceful.

A week after arriving at the Burrow, they finally saw Lupine.

He is no longer working in the "Hogwarts Wizardry", but mixed with werewolves as an undercover agent.

Lupine looked thin, haggard, stern, with a mass of gray in his tan hair, his clothes more ragged and patched than ever, and bearing terrible news that hadn't yet been announced.

"Another Muggle village has been attacked by dementors and werewolves," he announced. The cries of children echoed."

"It's really scary!"

"How could they do that?!"

"Remus, you shouldn't have told them that," said Mrs. Weasley irritably, frowning.

"It's good for them to know more about this kind of thing. They need to know how cruel their enemies are before they can be prepared." Lupine said stubbornly, "And this is not the first attack. There are many more attacks abroad than this one." To the horrors of things, we're in a war."

"Why are there Muggle children left in that village? Didn't the dementors suck their souls?"

"Because Fenrir the werewolf," said Lupine, "was involved in the attack..."

Aiwen suddenly realized that it was this guy again, he was simply a lunatic.

As the most brutal werewolf, Fenrir likes to bite children, infecting them to become werewolves, growing up in pain and hatred, and continuing to retaliate against society. It is because of him that Lupine became a werewolf.

Ivan and Hermione were also attacked by him, and the two sides had a deep hatred.

It is conceivable that Fenrir ordered the dementors to bypass the children, just to make them more miserable.

"There are about eighty werewolves under him, and he is the strongest force in the underground world." Lupine continued, his voice was calm and terrifying, "He recognizes me, and I have no way to get involved, so I can only inquire about information through other werewolves. .”

"Can't we just say something happy?" Mrs. Weasley said emphatically.

"Besides this attack, there are several pieces of information." Lupine did not answer Mrs. Weasley, he continued, "Last night, someone found Igor Karkaroff's body in a log cabin in the north. Corpse."

"Karkaroff is dead?"

"Yes, a terrible death, tortured, with the Dark Mark hanging over it. Frankly, I'm surprised he's survived so long," said Lupine, shrugging.

"Enough talk of death!" said Mrs. Weasley firmly.

"By the way, have you heard about Florin Fusco, Remus?" It was Bill who asked, and Fleur was pouring him a glass of wine, "That's the one..."

"The ice cream parlor in Diagon Alley?" Harry interjected, with an uncomfortable feeling of emptiness in his heart, "Evan, remember? He used to give us free ice cream."

Ivan nodded. In the year Sirius escaped from prison, he and Harry spent most of their summer vacation in Diagon Alley.

Fusco takes good care of them, often offers free ice cream, is a nice guy.

"Remember, what happened to him?"

"Judging from the situation in the shop, he was robbed."

"Why?" asked Ron, as Mrs. Weasley was glaring at Bill sternly.

"Who knows? He must have offended them somehow. This Florin, he's a good fellow."

Ivan tried hard to remember, he really couldn't remember the whereabouts of Fusco, maybe he just simply hid.

"Oh, speaking of Diagon Alley," said Mr. Weasley, "it seems Mr. Ollivander has disappeared too."

"The one who makes wands?" Ginny looked surprised.

"It's him, the store is empty, there is no sign of a struggle. No one knows whether he left by himself or was kidnapped." Mr. Weasley sighed and added, "What's the situation now! "

"Wait, what if people want to buy wands if he's gone?"

"We'll have to find another wandmaker," said Lupine sullenly. "But Ollivander is the best, and it would be very bad for us if the other faction took him away."

Yes, Ollivander is much more important than Florin Fusco, who has no impression.

Now that he's in hiding, it proves that Voldemort is investigating the Elder Wand's secrets.

The wand is choosing the wizard, as a wizard's weapon, there are too many mysteries in this humble little stick...

Undoubtedly, Lupine's news made the atmosphere suddenly dull.

They finally remembered that there was a war going on in the wizarding world, and now was not the time to be idle.

The next day, Hogwarts sent them a letter and a new semester book list, which marked the books needed to choose a new course.

There was also good news in Harry's envelope: he had been elected captain of the Quidditch team. 8)
