Indeed, Foggy was not the kind of person who could keep his composure.
If the Ministry of Magic really had such a powerful weapon, he would have taken it out to deal with Dumbledore first.
But if it was not a weapon, what were the members of the Order of the Phoenix guarding in the Ministry of Magic?
Or rather, what did Lord Voldemort want?
Ever since his resurrection, he had been hiding in the shadows, plotting something in Norway and the Ministry of Magic.
Elwyn did not know what was going on in Norway, but he knew that the Ministry of Magic had a memory ball related to prophecy. Lord Voldemort wanted to use it to find out why he had failed all those years ago. From this point of view, he seemed to be a person who believed in 'fate' because he placed too much importance on death.
Just as they reached the bar, the owner of the bar slid out from the back door and welcomed them.
Abfoss was a grumpy old man with long grey hair and a beard. He vaguely resembled Dumbledore. He was tall and thin, and his eyes were almost identical. However, his beard was shorter, and the lines on his face were more rigid.
It had to be said that he was an oddity from an ancient pure-blooded family, and was known as a weirdo.
"What do you want?" He mumbled, as if he was not surprised by Elwyn's appearance, but his eyes quickly swept across.
He paused for a moment on the scar on Harry's forehead, and then exchanged a glance with Elwyn.
"Five bottles of Butterbeer, please." Hermione said hurriedly.
He bent down and took out three dusty, dirty bottles from under the counter, and placed them heavily on the bar.
"Ten cigarettes," he said.
"I'll do it. Do you have a larger room upstairs?" Elwyn said as he handed over the silver coins. "We have a private party in a while. Many people will be coming, and it might not be convenient to sit downstairs."
"No, this place is the biggest. The upstairs are all guest rooms!" Abfoss answered rudely. He put the money Elwyn had given him into an old wooden till. The drawer slid open and swallowed the money.
"This guy's attitude is too bad. It's as if someone will really come and live here."
The few of them picked up their own Butterbeer and quickly retreated to the farthest table from the bar. They sat down and looked around.
At this moment, the man wrapped in dirty gray bandages knocked on the counter with his knuckles. He didn't say anything, but soon received a smoking drink from the bar owner.
"That's not a bad thing, is it? What do you think?" Ron suddenly looked at the bar with great enthusiasm and murmured, "We can order whatever we want here. I bet that guy will sell us everything. He doesn't care. To tell you the truth, I've always wanted to try Hot Whisky … "
"Don't forget, you're a Captain, Ron!" Hermione said fiercely.
"Oh!" Ron said, the smile on his face fading. "Yeah, I have to set an example."
"Who did you guys contact to come and meet us?" Harry asked as he unscrewed the rusty cap of his Butterbeer and took a big gulp. "I told Neville, Dean, Hufflepuff's Ernie, and the rest of the team. In addition, there's also Cho. I met her alone on the field a few days ago …"
"Speaking of which, the people we know are almost the same." Hermione said as she looked at her watch and anxiously looked toward the door. "I told Lavender and Parvati. Of course, Lavender already knew about this from Ron. I think there might be a dozen people who can come. Most of them are from Gryffindor Academy."
"I told the Frobisher siblings. I think they're more reliable!" Corin said. "And my brother."
"I mainly have a few first-year students who I think are trustworthy. After all, I've been in contact with them more recently." Elwyn said as he opened his Butterbeer. "Well, in addition, there's also Luna."
Many people in the school knew Elwyn, but not many people Elwyn knew.
He usually did not have much time for social activities. He could not even recognize people of his own age, let alone students of other years!
"By the way, after the magic spell class a few days ago, I told Astoria Greenglass about this. She seemed very interested."
"Astoria Greenglass?!" Hermione was stunned. "You mean the pureblood Greenglass family?"
"Elwyn, you actually informed Slytherin's people!" They all looked at her in surprise.
"Yeah, Slytherin isn't a bad person, right?" Elwyn said disapprovingly. He knew why they were so surprised. "I've interacted with Astoria a few times. She's not bad."
"But …" Ron hesitated for a long time before he continued. "But she's Slytherin!"
"As long as they're willing to stand up against Lord Voldemort, I think they're all on our side," Elwyn said. "Slytherin is also a part of the Hogwarts. Not all Slytherin support Lord Voldemort."
Judging from Harry and Ron's expressions, they did not agree with Elwyn's explanation.
At this moment, the door of the bar opened. A thick, dusty ray of sunlight divided the room into two. It disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was blocked by a large group of people.
The first to enter were Neville, Dean and Lavender. They were followed by Parvati and Padma Petier, as well as Autumn and one of her chattering girlfriends. Luna was alone. She stood at the door for a long time before she realized what was going on.
Behind her were Katie, Alicia and Angelina from Gryffindor's team, as well as the new substitutes, Reacher and Demirza.
Because of this period of training, they were now very familiar with Harry and Ron.
Then came Kite and three other first-year students. They walked in timidly as if they were frightened by the Pig's Head Bar.
There was also Corin's brother Dennis, who was almost as short as the first-year students.
Together with him were the Frobisher siblings. Both of them had obviously dressed up well.
After a few seconds, Hufflepuff's Ernie and Justin also arrived. Hannah followed behind them. There was also a Hufflepuff girl whose name Elwyn couldn't name. She had a long braid trailing behind her back.
Then came the three Ravenclaw boys named Anthony, Michael and Terry. There was also Ginny. They were probably informed by Ginny.
Unlike the others, Ginny was very popular in the school and knew a lot of people.
Behind her was a tall, thin boy with yellow hair and a snub nose. He was holding hands with Ginny. He seemed to be a member of the Hufflepuff's Quidditch team, but Elwyn couldn't remember his name.
Judging from the way they held hands, it seemed that his relationship with Ginny wasn't that simple …
