Dumbledore raised his hand. "Now, please listen to me. First, we need to confirm the time …" Tom raised his hand. "If we want to get rid of Harry during this summer vacation, then we have to consider one possibility. He will spend all his energy trying to find Harry's location before the protection spell loses its effect. We can't put all our hopes on a spell, even if its power comes from the strongest love. And if Tom can't do it in advance, then he will definitely try his best on the last day … So we can't wait until Harry's birthday to evacuate …"
"If we evacuate in advance, it means that Harry is still not an adult. He still has traces on him. So, no matter if he is a phantom or a follower, as long as he casts a spell … If the Ministry of Magic wants to track him, they will definitely be able to." Kingsley gently knocked on the table.
"Dumbledore, how is your Fawkes now?" Lupin asked Dumbledore softly, one arm resting on the sofa.
The members of Order of the Phoenix focused their attention on Dumbledore. Dumbledore calmly said, "If we want to evacuate in advance, then we won't be able to wait for Fawkes to grow old enough to evacuate."
Moody appeared to be very vexed and surprised. "Cunning Harris! Did he plan this all along? "
Dumbledore raised his hand to stop everyone before they started arguing again. "Alastor, Anka is a wild Phoenix. Allen warned me of the danger when I tried to communicate with them for the first time. What happened that day was just an accident."
"Flynet!" Arthur's voice suddenly sounded. "Harry's uncle has a fireplace in his house. In order to get Harry, we connected his uncle's fireplace to the Flynet … Of course, strictly speaking, Muggle's fireplace shouldn't be connected to the Flynet … But I have a very useful acquaintance in the Flynet management team …"
"I'm sorry, Arthur, but the flight network can't be used this time." Kingsley's deep and slow voice rang out, directly rejecting Arthur's suggestion. "After Fudge and Umrich, Mrs. Eckmo of the Magic Transportation Department's Flight Network Office has now completely sided with Harris. And Allen Harris knows the address of Harry's uncle's house. We can't guarantee that it won't be monitored."
"But I'm very happy. That day, when I was eating ice cream at Florin's Cold Drink Shop in Diagon Alley, I saw Marietta regaining her appearance. The purple pustules on her face formed a 'snitch'." Dumbledore recalled the witch with reddish blonde curly hair. He didn't care about her betrayal at all. "Miss Granger, who cast this little curse, is really an excellent witch, whether in magic or business."
Although it was a little awkward for Mr. Weasley to hide the Order of the Phoenix's operation from the Ministry of Magic, he still waved his hands slightly and thought quickly. "What if we use a magic car? We can fly without chanting spells. This way, we won't be able to detect our tracks. Percy and I both have one, and we're already very good at flying. "
"I've bought a new motorcycle!" Sirius clapped his hands in agreement. "I'll give the old one to Hagrid."
"I have to remind you, Dumbledore. Our opponents are the Mystery Man and the Ministry of Magic. He'll definitely arrange one or two Death Eaters to hide in the nearby area and patrol the sky.
He has many people who haven't revealed their identities, and many pure-blood families are supporting him. So unless the Mystery Man's brain is damaged, I'll do the same. "Dumbledore's magic eye stared fixedly at him." And the Ministry of Magic is patrolling the nearby area. We have to prevent them from deliberately leaking the information to attract the Mystery Man. Also, the wizard car's Muggle Banishing Spell can only make the Muggle invisible. It doesn't work on the wizard! So if we get close, it won't take long before we're discovered by both sides. We'll definitely be surrounded and intercepted. "
"We have to confuse them so that the Death Eaters can't tell where the real Harry is. So we can't just arrange one or two magic cars or motorcycles," Kingsley said. Kingsley continued, "Flying brooms, Night Qi, and Sirius' light motorcycles are all suitable means of transportation."
"So we have to send out as many people as possible. Also, take the compound decoction to make sure that every group has a chance to turn into Harry. Regardless of whether each group is in the sky or on the ground, they need to go to a different safe place … "Dumbledore took out his wand and pointed it at the coffee table. The scattered parchment rolls, goblets, and empty wine bottles piled on the table were all pushed to the end of the table by an invisible force, leaving a large empty space. Dumbledore picked out the largest parchment from the pile of parchment papers and spread it flat on the empty space on the table.
"My house can be used as a safe house. It's very reliable. Ever since that damned little Crouch attacked me in my house, I've spent a lot of effort to cast all the spells I know to protect my house from being invaded. I even bought a lot of magic traps. It's very safe," Moody said loudly.
"If there are so many of them, how can you guarantee that our own people won't step on him?" Sirius looked at Moody and straightened his back. He looked as if he was ready to fight at any time. "And this can also be used as a safe house. Harry can live with me after he leaves there. This is his real home."
"No, Sirius, your house is not suitable. Now many people already know the address of this house. What's more, your cousin Bellatrix is a loyal Death Eater," Kingsley shook his head and said. "Didn't you also tell us that Allen Harris could use some other means to bypass the protection spell and teleport here? It's too risky here. "
"These safe houses should have some kind of connection with the Order of the Phoenix. They should take the best protective measures and make it look like the place where we are going to hide Harry, such as Godric Valley." Dumbledore's magic wand tapped on the parchment paper, and a house in Godric Valley appeared on the parchment paper.
Kingsley also took out his magic wand and tapped on the parchment paper. "I can also provide a safe house. But to be honest, because it's a family property, I can't guarantee that my family members won't have any means to check it. So, it can only be used to confuse the public."
"My humble abode and Molly's Aunt Muriel's house can be used." Arthur also provided two places.
Soon, more than a dozen places that could be used as safe houses were written on the large parchment paper.
"After Harry's birthday in the safe house, Harry will be able to teleport anywhere without being troubled by traces …" Dumbledore's finger tapped on the long table. "When Harry returns to the Hogwarts after school starts, we can rest assured. Allen may be willing to use the summer vacation to use Harry to attract Tom outside of school, but he will never lure Tom to school. He won't allow any mistakes to happen in the Hogwarts right after he takes over."
"We also need to spread some false information to confuse the Unknowns and the Ministry of Magic," Kingsley said in a low voice. Kingsley's low voice sounded. "For example, we can release the news that we will make the final move on the 30th, the night before Harry turns seventeen."
"In addition, we have to be careful. Although the Ministry of Magic has given us permission to act, we can't interfere with the Ministry of Magic's law enforcement …" Kingsley's low and slow voice sounded very persuasive. "The Ministry of Magic has long planted some forces near Harry's aunt's house on the pretext of protecting Harry. Before Harris came to power, he had always been aware of Harry's location. When the time comes, we should avoid them as much as possible. As long as the real Harry is not stopped, we must not confront them head-on. Otherwise, they will use the law as a weapon and as an excuse to attack the Order of the Phoenix …"
Lupin shook his head. "Kingsley, don't be like this. Don't forget that our main goal is to defend against the Unknowns …"
"Allen only proposed a plan. It doesn't mean that he will definitely do anything," Arthur retorted. He had just been saved by Allen, and he felt very uncomfortable with the Order of the Phoenix's overly vigilant attitude towards Allen.
"Hmph! Arthur, don't forget about Stogie. In order to regain his freedom after breaking into the Ministry of Magic at night under the Soul Snatching Spell, Dumbledore had to agree to let Foggy and his gang let Allen Harris go to Demstrand as an exchange student. " Moody nodded heavily. "And now, the cunning Harris is better at using the law than Foggy and his gang. I bet they are waiting for us to make a mistake so that they can arrest us. That bad boy wanted to do this during the Ministry of Magic battle!"
"That was just a prank. If they really wanted to arrest you, you would still be in Azkaban!" Sirius and Moody seemed to be at loggerheads, looking for an opportunity to deal with this crazy man.
"Both of you, stop. I'm sorry, Lupin and Arthur, but this time we have to assume the worst situation. We have to be on guard against the Unknowns and the Ministry of Magic this time, but it's not enough to rely on me to release false information about the operation. It's unrealistic to let them get the date wrong." Kingsley stopped the two who started arguing again. "We can't be lucky and think that the Unknowns and the Ministry of Magic won't notice anything when the time comes, so we have to be prepared for battle … Dumbledore, there's a crucial question now. Who will protect the real Harry when the time comes?"
"You're right, Kingsley. I have to admit that even if Harris doesn't take action, we have to be on guard against the Ministry of Magic … Although the Ministry of Magic is controlled by Family Harris, it's not their people in all positions …" Sirius sighed. "The conflict between the pureblood and Harris is getting more and more prominent. The factional struggle in Aura's office has become public. The Harris faction and the Scrimgeour faction supported by the pureblood families are not giving in to each other … Albert and Scrimgeour often give completely opposite orders to cause trouble for each other. This is also why the Death Eaters' attack on the Muggle World went so smoothly. It's not only because they set a fire and ran away, it's also related to this …"
"Yes, but don't misunderstand Scrimgeour. He has dedicated his entire life to fighting against the Dark Wizards. I've known him for many years and I believe in his character. Even if he knew Harry's whereabouts and was caught by the Mystery, he would never reveal any information about Harry …" Kingsley agreed with Sirius' statement. "But Scrimgeour has gathered many wizards from other pureblood families. Aura … I suspect … No, I'm very sure that some of their families have already established contact with the Mystery. So if the Ministry of Magic knows about Harry's location, these pureblood families are likely to sell this information to the Mystery … So no matter if it's the Mystery or the Ministry of Magic, we have to be on guard."
After Lupin heard the analysis of the members of the Order of the Phoenix, who were familiar with the internal information of the Ministry of Magic and the pureblood families, he no longer cared about Allen. He said loudly, "I don't think it's Dumbledore who's carrying the real Harry. As long as Dumbledore shows up, he will become their most important target. Everyone knows that he's the most powerful member of the Order of the Phoenix, so he's most likely to be the one protecting Harry. So if it's just us here, we're far from enough … Do we need to inform Mundungus and the others?"
The members of the Order of the Phoenix present knew what Lupin meant. Mundungus Fletch was not very trustworthy, and the other members were either not very helpful in the battle, or they were not very smart and would easily spill the beans.
"I'll invite Mileva over. In addition, Hagrid, Dedalor, and Stogie can also come. However, I think Mundungus can spread some rumors for us first … I'll inform him at the last minute before the specific action." Dumbledore said, shaking his head, his long, silver-white beard trembling slightly. "I have to ask you for help. If you have trustworthy candidates, we can arrange for them to set off together near Privet Drive … Although according to my understanding of Tom and the information I have, the Death Eaters won't dare to use any fatal spells on Harry before their master, unless they can determine who's real and who's fake. But I have to emphasize that this operation is very dangerous …"
