Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 2012: Eve of dinner

"...So I think we must find a way to contact Maka, at least to hear his explanation of these actions face to face. Otherwise...even people like us who have watched him grow up to this day may still be able to understand He believes that even if there is something wrong, it is probably just because of Haier's manipulation. But, what about the others besides us?"

Sirius spread his hands and said seriously:

"This is undoubtedly a very serious matter - to this day, almost all of us are in need of Maca's power in this disaster. The more times like this, the more we need the support of everyone, but thousands of Nothing can go wrong again!"

Having said this, he suddenly seemed to remember something and turned to look into the bar.

"Charlotte, you are the youngest among us, and you are Maka's classmate, so the distance between you and him must be closer. Regarding the trends I just mentioned about Maka, What do you think?"

However, Charlotte's answer was simpler than everyone imagined.

"I have no idea."

She said something in a daze, then lowered her head and wiped the bar while saying:

"And maybe it's not just me, almost everyone has never really understood his inner thoughts. Sometimes you will feel that he is very close to you, but sometimes, you will very clearly feel that he is far away from you. It’s so far away that even if you try your best, you can’t reach it.”

Like Safina, Maka always wears a mask. The only difference is that Safina's mask is visible and tangible, but Maka's mask seems to have been integrated with him.

Therefore... This is really strange. Why can a "hypocritical" person like Maka always gain the respect and trust of so many people

Perhaps, no matter whether it is "different on the outside" or "one on the inside", anyone who can always consider others will definitely be a respected person.

"Well..." After listening to Charlotte's words, Sirius couldn't help but ponder for a moment, and then turned around and said, "Anyway, we have to pick one or some people to go out and meet Maka - "

However, before he finished speaking, everyone heard the goat in the small garden outside calling twice, causing him to stop subconsciously.

"Here it comes," Aberforth said casually, "if it wasn't Arthur, or it was Molly... my little darling only saw one person."

Aberforth Dumbledore had average magic theory, excellent dueling skills, and was proficient in "goat language" - everyone knows this. But... Of course, Aberforth obviously didn't know any goat language. He was just very familiar with the personalities and habits of the goats he raised.

After a short pause, Sirius immediately waved his hand to Lupine and said:

"Okay! Let me stop talking for a while... you can talk about 'that thing'."

After saying this, he stood up, went back to the bar and picked up the wine glass he had just put down, then turned around and leaned on the bar, looking at the door and taking a sip.

Scotch monk whiskey is a Muggle drink. It lacks the unique excitement derived from magical materials like fire whiskey, but it is still very good. And more importantly, Sirius was not picky.

Just as the amber wine slid down his throat, Arthur Weasley walked in from the door with a "ding". It can be seen that he is also holding a large meal basket in his hand, which is covered with cloth and seems to contain a lot of things.

"Oh! Is it so early today? Fortunately, Molly entered the kitchen early today - she is almost ready. Today's dinner is very rich!"

As Arthur said this, he quickly walked to the dining table and placed the entire large dinner basket on the table.

"What are you talking about? There's no need to stop and wait for me, just keep going!" He said with a smile, "It will take a while to lay out all the things here! Well... you can't use magic spells often, sometimes it does happen It’s so inconvenient.”

"let me help you."

Charlotte said softly, then walked out from behind the bar, went to Arthur and started working with him.

Yes, it seems that Arthur was right. Mrs. Weasley prepared a sumptuous dinner today. After all, today is also the day when the Blois family will deliver supplies, so everyone will live a little more luxuriously that day.

And it was just when the two of them were placing various foods on the table that Lupine finally spoke.

"Then let me first take out a rather special letter I received today for you to read!" He took out the letter that he had read to Sirius before and put it on the table and said, " I believe you have all seen it—Professor McGonagall’s personal letter from the Change."

To be honest, the news McGonagall told in this letter was no worse than what Sirius mentioned about Maka's current situation just now. Both were surprising.

"The ship is coming back." Lu Pingyan said concisely and concisely. "We all know that the Change has been in constant contact with the front line during this period. Many things and changes... the children may not be told too much. , but the professors should all know it. So, I’m actually very surprised—why did Professor McGonagall choose this time to return?”

Yes, it was a particularly puzzling decision, and it was not at all in line with Professor McGonagall's rational and prudent behavior.

unless…

"...I think there might be something unusual happening at sea!" Seeing the confusion on other people's faces, Lu Ping finally expressed his thoughts directly.

And his speculation seemed to have indeed reminded everyone, causing many people to show surprise expressions.

You must know that the Change was loaded with sufficient supplies before it officially set sail. The huge space in the cabin that had been expanded with the Traceless Stretch Curse was enough for all the teachers and students to float on the sea for a long time. For the safety of the students, Professor McGonagall and the others should not return easily.

Therefore, this matter immediately caused everyone to fall into various thoughts, especially Lu Ping's reminder, which made everyone frown.

After a moment, Kingsley suddenly seemed to have thought of some key point, and couldn't help but say:

"Tell me, where will Professor McGonagall and the others choose to land?"

Is it Beauxbatons? Or go directly to Armstrong? In short, although the letter has not been written yet, Mag's side seems to be still considering it. But... it certainly can't be going to Hogwarts, right
