Chapter 1308 Everyone is making progress
Ron's words made Harry and Hermione a little speechless. They didn't think about it, but it did make sense, and he knew something about the shelter.
"What are you doing with that thing?"
Harry asked a little confused when he saw Ron stuffing the box by the fireplace into the bag casually.
Ron's posture, those who didn't know it thought he was planning to evacuate the place.
"It's filled with Floo powder, and I dare say that the fireplace here must be able to connect to other fireplaces through the Floo network." Ron pointed to the fireplace and said, "If we fail to find them and are exposed by the outer guard magic, The other party will probably gather a bunch of dark wizards through the fireplace to surround us, just like the encounter between Sirius and Lupine last time."
"It seems that our luck is not bad." Harry said, gently touching the badge on his chest.
"I have erased their memory."
Hermione stood up again, and motioned for Harry and Ron to move the two of them to their seats and pretend they were asleep.
"They don't know we've been here, and if there are other dark wizards to replace them, they'll probably just think they're asleep."
Harry looked at the two dark wizards who were unconscious, and suddenly asked, "If it was Albert, what would he do with these dark wizards?"
"Probably..." Hermione hesitated for a moment and said, "Let them forget that they are wizards, and then send them to a Muggle prison. However, I'm afraid we can't do that now."
"That's a good way, at least it will stop those dark wizards from harming people." Harry agrees with Albert's approach. If he doesn't choose to kill them, locking them up is undoubtedly the best way.
Harry didn't want to kill people either, but dark wizards were enemies after all, and he couldn't just let them go if they were merciful, so he still agreed with Albert's point of view, at least to make the enemy unable to continue to hurt others.
After dealing with the tail, the three quietly left through the back door, preparing to determine what the third red dot was.
Before they dealt with the two people in the room, they would have suspected that it was their accomplice, but now they suspect that it may be some dark creature like a Boggart hiding in someone else's house.
However, it still takes some time to go over and confirm, so that they can easily do their own things after confirming that it is safe here.
When the three of them passed the park, they found that the obelisk, which was originally engraved with names, had now become a statue of the Potter family of three. The Potters cuddled together, with baby Harry in Lily's arms.
There is also a golden sign next to it, which reads:
October 31, 1981
Lily and James Potter died in this village
Their son Harry is the only wizard who survived the Killing Curse.
We commemorate the Potters
and alerted to the violence that left their families shattered.
The golden sign is full of various words, which are the traces left by the wizards who came to pay their respects to the "Boy Who Lived".
"Let's go, go and check the situation first."
Harry moved his eyes away from the statue of the Potter couple with nostalgia, and walked towards the direction of detecting the fingers of the pocket watch.
After Hermione and Ron looked at each other anxiously, they quickly quickened their pace to keep up.
Meanwhile, Harry said he saw an abandoned house and said it was his home.
"Harry, are you sure there's a house there?" Hermione and Ron followed Harry's gaze, but saw nothing.
Harry turned to look at his partner, and asked suspiciously, "Didn't you see it?"
"I didn't see it." Ron shook his head.
"I see, it's the Fidelity Curse." Hermione said suddenly.
"I almost forgot, the house was cast with the Loyalty Charm, and the secret keeper was Pettigrew." Harry nodded and said, "However, that guy is dead."
"So, now everyone who knows the secret has become the Secret Keeper." Hermione reached out and grabbed Harry's hand and said, "You are also the Secret Keeper there now."
"Oh, I almost forgot about it, the house is over there." Harry pointed to Hermione, "Unfortunately, it's been badly damaged and completely deserted."
After telling Hermione the location, Harry pointed Ron to the location of the house.
However, they did not choose to stay there, but planned to continue looking for the red dot on the detection pocket watch.
However, someone seemed to have seen through the disguise of the Disillusionment spell on them, and was standing not far away, looking at them, and waving towards them.
"The man saw us!"
Hermione gripped her wand tightly, reminding Harry and Ron uneasily. It is definitely not normal for the other party to see through them who are hiding.
"That man is definitely not a Muggle." Ron had already raised his wand.
"Bathilda Bagshot." Harry suddenly had a bad feeling, and moved his eyes to the detection pocket watch in his hand, and then looked at the old woman in front of him.
"Harry, we should leave immediately." Hermione said, grabbing Harry's arm.
"Maybe, she is under the Imperius Curse of the Death Eaters." Ron looked at the old man in front of him and whispered, "However, I think we should be able to subdue her."
"Don't be stupid Ron, the Imperius Curse cannot be distinguished by a detection pocket watch." Hermione looked at the detection pocket watch in her hand, and she was sure that the red dot was pointing to Bathilda Bagshot in front of her.
"Look at the situation first. If there is any danger, we will leave immediately." Harry took the detection pocket watch and glanced at the red dot on it, then raised his foot to follow Bathilda.
After the three of them passed several houses, they followed Bathilda into the path and came to the door of her house. It could be seen that the garden of her house had been deserted for some time.
Bathilda opened the door with the key and invited the three of them into the house.
As soon as Harry walked over, he smelled a strange smell. Hermione and Ron next to him also frowned. They were all nervously holding their wands to guard against possible attacks around them.
"Bathilda?" Harry asked, taking off the Invisibility Cloak.
"Let's go in and we'll talk." Bathilda said to the three.
"Harry!" Hermione shook her head at Harry and said, "We shouldn't take risks, this looks like a trap."
"Hermione's right, we shouldn't be in there."
Ron agreed with Hermione, not because he was timid, but because the red dot on the detection pocket watch was right in front of him, and it should be said that it pointed to the old man in front of him, not his house.
And standing at the door, they smelled an unpleasant smell, it was a smell of corruption... In short, Ron didn't want to go in.
"I know it's rude, but you don't mind if we just talk outside?" Harry asked tentatively.
"You are Harry Potter."
Bathilda didn't answer, but turned her head to look at Harry who took off the invisibility cloak.
"No, I am not."
Facing Bathilda's cloudy eyes, the uncomfortable feeling in his heart intensified, and he couldn't help but push back a step, reaching out to pull Hermione and Ron.
Both of them heard Harry's words and turned their heads to look over. They didn't know what Harry had discovered, but the tacit understanding in the past made them raise their wands and point at Bathilda.
"Back, get out of here," said Harry, moving his lips.
The next moment, Hermione took the two of them away, and they left quite quickly.
A green light passed from the direction they had just disappeared, and hit the old man at the door.
"That's really a trap. I just seemed to..." Ron panted heavily, covering his chest with his hand holding the wand. He seemed to have seen Voldemort just now.
"Hermione, do it again."
Voldemort's furious roar echoed in Harry's mind.
The next moment, the discomfort of Apparition came again.
Panting, Harry took out the invisibility cloak and put it on himself, then used Apparation again to take the two of them and disappeared.
"Can we stop Apparating again, I feel a little nauseous." Ron couldn't help retching, he still couldn't adapt to high-intensity Apparating.
"The guy is catching up, go to Grimmauld 12th Square," said Harry.
"Why don't you go back to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix?" Ron felt that the headquarters was safer.
"No, go to Albert's shelter."
Hermione didn't give Ron and Harry time to react, and grabbed the two of them and went directly to the shelter Albert prepared for them.
"It's really dirty in here."
Ron was led into a deserted building by Hermione, and couldn't help complaining, "Are you sure this is a shelter."
"There is a room here that is protected by the Fidelity Charm." Hermione took out a note and showed it to Harry and Ron.
"Why don't you go back to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix?"
Ron looked at Harry and Hermione with some puzzlement.
"I'm worried there will be Death Eaters blocking us at the door," Hermione explained.
"right."
Harry also didn't want to take any risks. If he hadn't left decisively just now, he would have been blocked by Voldemort. He could still feel Voldemort's anger.
Hermione was right.
Voldemort did intend to do that, and if they Apparated directly to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, they risked being blocked by Death Eaters at the door.
Since Voldemort and the Death Eaters were blasted by Albert through Scrimgeour, their brains have obviously become smarter than before.
If it wasn't for Albert who also specially strengthened Harry, it would really be possible to overturn halfway.
