Chapter 966 Information About Mundungus
Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Colin all looked at Ivan, and then turned their heads to look at the woman in the corner in surprise.
It was clear to everyone except Colin who had no idea who Mundungus was, having seen him many times over the holidays.
In their impression, Mundungus was a squat, unshaven wizard with short, bowed legs, long and messy ginger hair, a pair of swollen and bloodshot eyes, and smoking bad-smelling cigarettes. There is always a strong smell mixed with alcohol and tobacco.
No matter how you look at it, it is not at all the same as the witch in front of her who is wrapped in a veil.
It would be amazing if there was a way to turn a dumpy man into such a slender witch!
"Are you kidding, Ivan, how could he be Mundungus..." Ron said.
"We can go over and ask to make sure!" Aiwen said, walking quickly to the side of the witch.
The witch dodged back for a moment, but quickly regained her composure.
"Go away, brat!" she said roughly, in an ugly woman's voice.
"Don't pretend, Dunge, we recognized you!" Ai Wen said, "How about the things I want you to buy?"
"I do not know what you're talking about!"
"Oh, if that's the case, then I won't pay, you know, and follow-up orders..."
"Wait a minute, you can't do that, it took me so much..."
Mundungus stopped, and he saw Ivan looking at him with a smile.
"Damn, how did you recognize me? I'll post those things to you in a few days, now you guys stay away from me!" Mundungus said in a panic, looking around, "Listen, I can't be found, the bartender here has a great memory, because of something, he banned me from the Pig's Head 20 years ago, I can't be noticed by him..."
"My God, you really are Mundungus!" said Hermione in surprise, as if transfixed!
"Why are you here?" Harry asked, "In this way."
"Of course I'm following you. This is my task. You don't really think that Dumbledore will let you guys leave Hogwarts without any protection." Mundungus muttered, returning to his own voice, "Don't look at me so angry, Harry, it's not up to me, I still have a lot of business to do, but now I have to come here early in the morning, and I can't smoke, Just sit here. As for me now, it's a disguise that Tonks prepared for me, and Stoji lost Moody's invisibility cloak when he was arrested, and we only have one."
"Sturgis Podmore?" said Ron. "The guy with the straw on his head? He's not the Order of the Phoenix..."
"Shh, Ron!" said Hermione hastily, looking around in horror. "Keep your voice down, you shouldn't have said that word."
Several people gathered in a circle, Colin looked curious, and Mundungus, who was sitting in the corner, almost fainted.
"Sturgis was arrested? What the hell is going on here?"
"I don't know..." Mundungus said in a small voice, as if realizing that he had said too much.
"Remember when he was supposed to escort us to King's Cross and didn't show up!" said Harry. "Moody was pissed off just because he didn't show up. He was doing something for us, wasn't he?"
"Yeah, at least I thought so, you five..." Mundungus said, but was cut off again.
"I remember, it was said in the Daily Prophet, the paper from the day the Gryffindor Quidditch team first practiced," said Hermione, narrowing her eyes and remembering, "I read When I got to that report, I originally wanted to tell you about it.”
Because of Ron's poor performance, the atmosphere that night became so awkward that Hermione forgot to mention it.
In the past month, Ron has participated in four more Quidditch trainings, but the last two were not loudly reprimanded. Angelina thinks his progress is too slow, but at least he is still improving, so he can't say what.
"What did the Daily Prophet say?"
"I remember they said that at one o'clock in the morning on August 31, Sturgis tried to break into the Ministry of Magic and attempted to commit a robbery by attempting to break through a Class I security door, and then he was caught by the Ministry of Magic guards. Defending himself, he was found guilty of two charges and imprisoned in Azkaban for six months."
"Six months in Azkaban!" Harry whispered in shock, "for trying to break through a door?!"
"Don't be silly, it's not just about trying to break through a door. Come to think of it, what's he going to do at the Ministry of Magic at one o'clock in the morning?" Hermione said in a low voice, "It's definitely not that simple."
"You must know what's going on, right?" Several people looked at Mundungus.
"Don't stare at me like that, they seem to be guarding something, and that thing is kept at the Ministry of Magic." Mundungus said quickly, "I don't know what it is, they never let me go There, I haven't inquired about it either. As for Storge, who knows what kind of madness he committed, he actually tried to break into the secret area of the Ministry of Magic that day, yes, I heard that from Mad-Eye, I don't know anything about other things Understood. Please, can you go away? The waiter may come out at any time, and the five of you are too conspicuous here!"
Several people left Mundungus and walked back to the bar, the topic still remained on the arrest of Sturgis.
"Judging from what Mundungus said, Mad Eyes and the others don't seem to know about it, and they seem to be shocked by Stoji's actions." Ivan said, "They didn't expect him to be arrested. It's so weird!"
"It's not surprising at all, maybe it's a frame!" Ron said excitedly.
"Well, there is a possibility that the Ministry of Magic suspects that he belongs to Dumbledore's gang." Hermione followed up with analysis, "So, probably, they lured him to the depths of the Ministry of Magic, and he had no intention at all." Smell a door! Maybe they're making up some excuse to get him arrested!"
Ivan nodded thoughtfully. It is also possible that the Death Eaters tried to enter the Ministry of Magic's Department of Affairs that night, but they were spotted by Storge who was on patrol, so he deliberately framed him, and controlled him to see the Ministry of Magic's protective magic by the way. power.
"I'm more concerned about what Mundungus said just now, that they are guarding something, and that thing is kept at the Ministry of Magic," Harry said. The weapon to get?"
"Who knows!" Hermione said thoughtfully, "but it's hard for me to imagine that if there is such a powerful weapon, Fudge would keep it in the Ministry of Magic and not use it. It's not like his style." , isn’t it?” Browse the reading address:
