Even so, when Harry thought of Ginny, he immediately felt a pang of fear.
"The Ministry of Magic …"
"The Ministry of Magic is finished. Let's go, I don't think we should stop," Hermione said hurriedly.
"But Lord Voldemort …"
"Don't mention that name, Harry!" Elwyn said hurriedly, stopping Harry from mentioning Lord Voldemort. "Remember what I told you during the holidays? He cast a spell on his name. If someone mentions his name, he will sense it. He did this during the last war, which is one of the main reasons why people call him the Mysterious Man. Previously in the Burrow, because of the protection from the Ministry of Magic, it didn't matter, but from now on, we must be careful. "
"What?"
"The Black Demon only knows that we are here?" Elaine said warily, looking at the group of singing men. "Is he here?"
"He should have sensed it, but he didn't come." Elwyn said, "The battle in the Burrow may not be over yet, and he can't be sure that we mentioned his name, but he will definitely send Death Eaters to check. After all, not many people would dare to do so, and they must be his enemies. Come on, we'd better leave here. According to the original plan, we'll go to Grimmauld Square and meet up with Sirius and the Order of the Phoenix. If he brought Ron out, he will also go there. "
Although there were people in the Order of the Phoenix who were worried that Snape might also go there, or tell the Lord Voldemort about the location, Elwyn knew that he would not.
From the current situation, Grimmauld Square was still very safe.
The previous masters of the Blake family had cast countless spells on the house, most of which were not under the control of the Ministry of Magic. After Sirius and Moody cast a few more spells on Snape and changed the secret keeper, Elwyn decided to move to that location.
Other than Grimmauld Square, the other places could be more dangerous. Besides, Elwyn did not plan to stay there for long.
At this time, the three men on the opposite side of the road saw Hermione and Elaine in the alley and began to whistle to seduce them. As for Elwyn and Harry, they were ignored by the three men. Perhaps in their eyes, Harry and Elwyn, who had just become adults, were two boys, and the degree of threat was almost zero.
"Come here, baby, let me buy you a drink!"
"Let's drink some wine and do some happy things. I'll show you what a real man is!"
"Should I cast a curse on them? Let them see what a real vampire is! "Elaine suggested. She was very dissatisfied with the men's lust.
"We can't let the Muggle see us casting a spell," Hermione reminded. "It's just a Forgetting Curse …"
"Let's go, there's no need to waste time. We don't have to follow the laws of the Ministry of Magic now, while the Death Eaters haven't arrived yet," Elwyn said as he held Hermione's hand tightly.
Seeing Elwyn and the others holding hands, the men laughed mockingly, but they immediately saw a shocking scene.
In the blink of an eye, the boy and the two beautiful girls in the alley were gone, forcibly vanishing into thin air.
"God, they, they … Did I see a ghost just now? Or did I drink too much? "A man muttered.
His question did not receive a reply from his companions. He turned around and saw two figures covered in black hoods and cloaks standing behind him.
.....
.....
A few seconds later, the four of them stood in the middle of the familiar, dilapidated square.
There were tall, crumbling, old houses all around them. The four of them ran towards number 12.
As Elwyn ran, he carefully checked to make sure that no one was following them or supervising them.
Everything around them was peaceful as usual. The uproar in the magic world had yet to affect this place.
Harry was the first to run up the stone steps. He knocked on the front door with his wand, and there was a series of metallic clanking sounds, as well as the clanking of chains. Then, the door creaked open, and they hurried over the threshold.
Elwyn was the last to enter. He closed the door behind him, and the old-fashioned gas lamps lit up at once. The flickering light illuminated the long foyer.
The house-elf Kritcher did not seem to be around. The house was unusually quiet, a little like the first time Elwyn came here.
Strangeness enveloped the house, and the temporary happiness and brightness seemed to be drifting away.
The heads of the house-elves on the wall cast strange shadows on the stairs, and the long, dark curtains covered the portrait of Sirius's mother. The big umbrella stand made from the broken leg of the troll was still in the foyer. It had been knocked over by someone, but Elwyn was sure that the umbrella stand had not fallen when he came a few days ago.
Someone had been here again in the past few days. Perhaps it was Sirius, or the reckless Tonks.
Of course, if it was Snape, then it would be interesting!
"Where's the house-elf?"
"Maybe at the Hogwarts with Dobby," Elwyn said. "Keep it down, don't wake Mrs. Blake. Let's go upstairs and wait for Sirius. "
They walked carefully through the foyer and up the creaking stairs to the living room on the second floor.
Hermione waved her wand and lit the old-fashioned gas lamp. There was a draft in the room. She sat on the sofa, trembling slightly, and hugged herself tightly.
"Alright, let me rearrange the current situation. The Ministry of Magic is finished. Although it's expected, it's really terrible," she said. "I thought that Death Eaters wouldn't dare attack the Ministry of Magic after Skellinger gathered all the Auror together, or at least they could resist for a while longer."
The speed of the Ministry of Magic's collapse and the short duration of the battle had greatly exceeded many people's expectations.
"Resist? That's only if the Auror are willing to fight for the Ministry of Magic. " Elwyn said. "How many people are still loyal to the Ministry of Magic is a big problem. Skellinger miscalculated the situation. If you ask me, I'm sure many of the people he trusted were controlled or switched sides. That's why the battle ended so quickly."
"Sigh, I hope Sirius and Lupin are fine. We should actually … What's wrong, Harry?" Hermione asked worriedly.
At this moment, Harry cried out in pain. Something flashed through his mind, like a strong light flashing across the surface of the water. His scar burned fiercely again. He saw a huge shadow and felt a fury that did not belong to him burning at the end. It was as strong as an electric shock, but it was fleeting.
"What did you see, the battle at the Humble Abode?"
