After Bill said that, the color on Dudley's head gradually lightened. His short blond hair quickly turned into a conspicuous short pink hair. Dudley seemed to have been shortened, but his sturdy body became slender and full of vitality. (Author's note: Dudley's hair color is coffee in the movie and gold in the novel.)
"Remus, I'm not used to seeing you like this." Tonks removed his disguise, Magus, and took out a sparkling ring from his bag. He put it on his slender finger as he spoke to Vernon, whose face was full of fat, and whose chin was so thick that his neck was almost gone.
"Remus, did everything go well?" The mad-eyed man asked Uncle Vernon in a gruff voice. He took out two bulging bags from a backpack that he had cast the Traceless Stretch spell on and threw them on the ground.
"The others have taken over at the restaurant. They should have arrived at their new home …" Lupin, who was disguised as Uncle Vernon, looked around. "Is everyone here?"
"Dumbledore and Mag are not here yet …" The mad-eyed man took out a big golden pocket watch from his collar and looked at it. "They should be here soon."
As if he was waiting for Dumbledore to speak, ripples appeared in the dark air. Dumbledore removed the illusion spell and began to appear. The tabby cat on his shoulder jumped down and turned into Mileva Mag.
"Good evening. It seems that we are the last ones to arrive, right?" Dumbledore put on a black traveling cloak over his purple robe. He wore a pointed hat and a pair of high-heeled boots with buckles. His silver hair and beard seemed to be shining under the light. "I haven't been here for a long time since the last time I was here."
Professor Mag put on an emerald green cloak, and her black hair was tied into a tight bun. She looked at Harry sternly, who was not dressed properly. Then she realized that she was not in school, so she softened her tone. "I have to admit that the lilies here are blooming very well, and the smell of roses in the small garden is very strong."
"I'm sorry, but I have to remind you that we don't have time to chat now. We have to get out of here as soon as possible. "The mad-eyed man said in a hoarse voice as he pointed at the large bag on the ground.
"Oh, thank you, Arastor." Dumbledore clasped his hands in front of him and took a step forward. His body turned towards the surrounding wizards. "Everyone, follow our previous arrangement. Each Harry will take a set of clothes first."
"Every Harry?" Harry caught the word. He seemed to understand something. He raised his head and asked, "You want to become me?"
"Harry, this is the best method we've come up with after our discussion." A gentle smile appeared behind Dumbledore's silver-white beard. "Just like how you're worried about our safety, everyone is willing to take the risk for you."
"No, Professor, it's too dangerous," Harry said loudly, clenching his fists in agitation. "We don't have to …"
"Is it necessary?!" Moody said sternly. "The Ministry of Magic is everywhere outside. They'll do everything they can to use you to lure out the Death Eaters. For this reason, they won't care about your safety!"
"Be nicer to my godson, mad-eyed man!" Sirius put a hand on his godson's shoulder and motioned for Harry to calm down. "Harry, you're not an adult yet. This means that there are still traces on your body. The flight network will also be monitored by the Ministry of Magic … Your mother Lily's charm will be broken under two conditions: You're an adult, or …"
Remus continued, "… You don't call this place home anymore. Harry, you parted ways with your aunt and uncle tonight, with the mutual understanding that you would never live together again, didn't you? "Remus took over the conversation.
Harry nodded helplessly.
"So, once you leave this time, you'll never come back. The charm will be broken when you walk out of its range. We chose to break it early to avoid being used by others. " Sirius patted Harry's shoulder. "Look on the bright side. You can always stay with me from now on. I promise you, Harry. I promise you, everything will be over after this."
"No, I can't let everyone risk their lives for me." Harry shook his head in disbelief.
"Actually, we don't like it, buddy," Fred said with a serious expression. Fred said solemnly, putting his arm on George's shoulder. "Just imagine, if something goes wrong, we'll be freckled, crazy little idiots forever."
"Harry, everyone here is an adult. They're willing to take this risk," Moody said, staring at Harry.
Arthur Weasley walked over and patted Harry's shoulder. "Don't worry about Molly. She's also in favor of this."
"I didn't know beforehand that I'd be taking this risk. I was just picked up again …" Aunt Petunia walked out, shaking her head. "Mr. Potter, I'm Mundungus Fletch, your most loyal fan."
"Shut up, Mundungus." Hagrid, who was standing behind Mundungus, growled. He pulled Aunt Petunia's collar and pulled her back with a wretched look on her face.
"We have an advantage. The Ministry of Magic and the Unknowns don't know that we're coming to move you tonight. We leaked a false information to the outside world: they think you're leaving on the 30th." Kingsley shielded Mundungus behind himself. "Although the Ministry of Magic is definitely watching our home, we've taken the best protective measures for a dozen houses. They all look like places where we're going to hide you. They all have some kind of connection to the Order of the Phoenix: your godfather's house, my house, and their Aunt Muriel's house … Of course, we're going to move you to the Burrow in the end. Do you understand what I mean? "
"Yes …" Harry finished speaking and said with some uncertainty, "Maybe they didn't know which of the safe houses I was flying to at first, but …" He quickly glanced at the number of people. "… all of us are flying to the Burrow. Isn't it obvious at a glance?"
"I say, let's move quickly before the enemy makes a move on him. There's no need to explain everything to this child …" Moody's lips curled downwards as he urged discontentedly. "We have to leave here as soon as possible."
"Harry, we won't all fly to the same place. Okay, let's stick to the plan now." Dumbledore looked at Moody and stretched out his slender hand. "Arastor, are you ready?"
"Just a little more." Moody took out a bottle of mud-like substance from his cloak and shook it in front of everyone's eyes. "Blake, I've separated from the other teams. I need something new."
Before he could finish his sentence, Harry screamed. Sirius, who was standing beside Harry, was caught off guard and pulled a handful of hair from his godfather's head. Sirius carefully stuffed Harry's hair into the bottle in Moody's hand. Instantly, the mouth of the bottle began to bubble. Moody shook it gently and sniffed it. A satisfied smile appeared on his face. "It's done."
Harry rubbed the back of his head, which was still aching after his hair was pulled out. He glared at Sirius.
Moody ignored Harry and walked towards the twins first. He handed the bottle to Fred and said in a serious tone, "For those who have never drunk the compound decoction, I'll give you a piece of advice. It tastes a bit like the pee of a fairy."
"You've tasted urine countless times, haven't you? Crazy man. "Fred glanced at the bottle and raised his head to ask.
Moody didn't say anything. Instead, he fixed his magic eye on Fred.
Under the fierce glare of the other party, Fred lowered his voice unnaturally. "I'm just trying to liven up the atmosphere." After that, he raised his hand and drank a mouthful of the compound soup in the bottle. Then, he handed the bottle to George. The moment the medicine entered his mouth, Fred frowned. His widened eyes rolled in a comical manner and his body shrank down. George also hissed in pain as if he had drunk a mouthful of strong liquor. It was as if his head was pressed down by an invisible hand and he suddenly shrank down.
"I'd rather be a protector." Montegus, who still looked like Aunt Penny, held the mud-like bottle with both hands. "Can't I just dress like this?"
"Shut up," Moody roared. "You boneless reptile. No matter which Death Eaters we encounter, their goal is to capture Potter, not kill him. Dumbledore always said that the Mystery Man wanted to kill Potter with his own hands. The bodyguards are the ones we need to worry about the most. The Death Eaters won't leave the bodyguards alive when they see them. "
Although Montegus did not seem to be completely reassured, under Moody's dangerous gaze, he still poured the medicine into his mouth. Then, he turned his head and looked at Moody with an expression that said, "I'm very obedient."
Harry stared at the scene in front of him. After drinking the compound soup, everyone, including Bill and the others, gasped for breath and grimaced in pain. Their facial features began to wriggle and deform like heated wax. Those who were taller than Harry shrunk shorter and shorter. Bill and the others with long hair turned black and quickly returned to their scalps.
"We look exactly the same," Fred and George turned to look at each other and said at the same time.
"It's not over yet." Moody said as he picked up the bag that he had just thrown aside. A pile of clothes with the same style and texture that were copied from Harry's clothes were thrown on the ground.
"Don't you have a sporty one?" It was unclear whether it was Fred or George who said that. He picked up Harry's brick-red T-shirt with some disdain. From his tone, Harry guessed that he should be Fred.
"I don't like this color either." George shook the shirt in his hand.
"Just wear it since it's given to you. It's not up to you. Hurry up and change," Moody urged.
Tonks, who had already become Harry, took off her clothes just like that. She looked at her white sexy lace French underwear that already had some chest hair on it. Steel rings propped up two circles on her flat chest. She made a face at Remus beside her. After taking off her clothes neatly, she bent down to pick up her clothes to wear. However, Harry's eyesight was really terrible without her glasses. She only felt that her vision was blurry and she did not notice that she had stepped on the sleeve of the clothes that she was picking up. She lost her balance and fell on the pile of clothes on the ground.
Tonks complained, "Harry, it's all your fault for having such bad eyesight. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen." During the struggle, she was completely naked from head to toe. Harry's private parts were openly exposed.
Seeing his wife struggling on the ground, even though he was using Harry's appearance, Lupin, who still looked like Uncle Vernon, still walked over with jealousy. He wanted to find clothes to cover his Tonks. "Dora, you've exposed Harry's entire body!"
However, a figure suddenly flashed by. Harry had already covered the Tonks' lower body with a jacket. "Tonks, you've exposed my entire body!"
