"Elwyn, is that the head of your Ministry of Magic?" Gabrielle asked, staring at Scrymgeour's back. "You and Harry rejected him just like that?!"
"Yes, it can't be said to be a rejection. We just have different standpoints! Like trains on different tracks, our standpoints are destined to be different from Scrymgeour's, "Elwyn replied, rubbing Gabrielle's head.
Gabrielle nodded, not really understanding. It was unknown whether she understood or not.
"I think he's really annoying!" Ginny said. "He only wants to use you and Harry."
"In any case, he's not a good person!" Elaine nodded in agreement. "He's not good to us either. Restricting the activity area of the vampires …"
"Just wait and see. When I get back, I'll definitely give Percy a good beating," Ron also said loudly.
"Forget it." Hermione said. "The Ministry of Magic has many practices that are not popular, but they are fighting against Lord Voldemort. This is undeniable. We are not enemies."
At least not for the time being, but this state of affairs would not last long.
The Ministry of Magic would not last long in a direct confrontation with Lord Voldemort …
At this moment, Sirius walked over and asked, "What does Scrymgeour want?"
"Like before, he wants us to reveal insider information about Dumbledore to him. He wants me and Elwyn to act as the new ambassadors of the Ministry of Magic to deceive others," Harry said.
"We rejected him. He didn't look too happy." Elwyn followed up. "What's worse is that Scrymgeour doesn't seem willing to admit that the current situation is terrible, nor is he willing to cooperate with the Order of the Phoenix to fight against Lord Voldemort in a way that we agree with. The Ministry of Magic's stance is that they can only choose to fight head-on and then destroy."
"Sigh, Scrimgeour is a competent Auror, but he's not a wise Minister of the Ministry of Magic." Sirius was silent for a moment, then he said slowly, "The school's board of directors has replied. With Scrimgeour's intervention, they do not intend to close the Hogwarts, but I doubt that many students will be willing to come back next semester. Even if there are more guards protecting this place, it will still be very dangerous here."
"But it's more dangerous at home, isn't it? It's the same everywhere now. "
"I think that if Harry and I don't return to Hogwarts, the Lord Voldemort won't do anything to the other students for the time being," Elwyn said.
The Lord Voldemort's goal was to rule, not to kill all the wizards, and the students were not a threat.
Moreover, the significance of the Hogwarts Magic Academy was extraordinary. The Lord Voldemort would probably use this place as a base to train dark wizards to join his army.
If the school was closed, he would not be able to gain anything.
However, Elwyn was not too sure about this. Who knew how crazy the Lord Voldemort would become after combining with the Evil God.
"Elwyn, Harry, regarding the matter of not returning to school and the plan you two told me last time, we need to carefully discuss it again." Sirius said worriedly. He knew that Elwyn and the others planned to search for the remaining two keys to the secret treasure and destroy the remaining Horcruxes, but he did not completely agree with their idea. "Before that, Harry, you need to return to the Dursleys' house. Only then can the magic that Lily left in your body be effective. After that, I will accompany you to Godrick's Hollow to see your parents' graves … Elwyn, you should also go home this summer to accompany your parents! "
Yes, this was the last summer vacation, and it had been a long time since Elwyn had gone back.
He really should go home this summer, or stay at Hermione's house for a while.
Afterwards, he prepared to go to Gringotts to retrieve the golden cup. This was a Horcrux and also related to the location of the Hufflepuff's secret treasure key. It was extremely crucial.
In view of Gringotts' defense and the difficulty of the sprites, Elwyn planned to go after the magic world was in chaos. It would be best if he waited until the Lord Voldemort took over Gringotts and the sprites escaped. That way, things would be much simpler.
"Don't forget about Bill and Hibiscus Chinensis's wedding." Ron reminded, "Before that, you must come to my house."
"That's right, this is something we should not miss." Sirius said.
"Also, you must come to my house as guests." Gabri hurriedly followed up, "If you can't return to Hogwarts, you can come to Boothbottom next semester. Madam Maxim will welcome you."
"Or go to America?" Elaine followed up, "I heard my uncle say that America's magic world is very mysterious. Their connection with the Muggle is much closer than here. We can go to Muggle's school. There are many wizards, vampires and werewolves in America's Muggle school. Oh, right, they call the Muggle Ma Ji over there. "
There was no end to this. France, America, Elwyn previously planned to go to China. These sounded more like a study tour and travel. The future in front of them was not so beautiful, but a dark and winding road.
At the end of this road, they will have a face-to-face confrontation with the Lord Voldemort and the Evil God.
The difficult future seemed to serve as a foil to the golden days of peace. Elwyn did not deny Gabri and Elaine's thoughts, but followed along with their train of thought.
One day, they will go back to see a wider and more exciting magic world ….
.....
The endless night fell, and the light seemed to have disappeared.
On a narrow path bathed in moonlight, two men appeared out of thin air a few yards away from each other.
They stood still, pointing their wands at each other's chests. Soon, they recognized each other. They tucked their wands under their robes and sped in the same direction.
"Any news?" the taller of the two asked.
"Excellent news," Severus Snape replied.
The left side of the path was covered with thick, low thorns, while the right side was covered with neatly trimmed hedges.
The two of them moved forward quickly, their robes flapping against their ankles.
"Is that so? Good news? " Yaxley asked suspiciously. The branches above blocked the moonlight from time to time, and his clumsy figure appeared and disappeared from time to time. "I thought I would be late. My situation here is more difficult than I thought. I hope he will be satisfied. You sound very confident about your meeting?"
Snape nodded, but did not elaborate.
They turned into a wide driveway on the right and left the path.
The tall hedge turned a corner with them, and an ornate iron gate stood in front of them in the distance. But neither of them stopped.
