"...Yes, in order to ensure the safety of the students, it is best to search the entire community again and find those who sneaked in as soon as possible! The children have just followed us all the way and have finally settled down for the time being. The young children are still feeling uneasy! This time something happened to Mr. Creevey, everyone will definitely be worried again... "
Downstairs in the apartment that served as the temporary campus hospital, Minerva McGonagall, who had just asked several other professors to comfort and control the students, was talking to Flitwick.
In fact, Flitwick, who was the headmaster of Ravenclaw House, should have gone to the student dormitory to pay more attention to the young wizards like the other professors. However, Minerva thought about it and left him on her side, planning to leave part of the task of searching for infiltrators to him.
Yes, just "part of it".
To be honest, her side is a little short of manpower now, so not only Flitwick, but she is also preparing to deal with those sneaky guys personally... Of course, there is also Severus Snape, Although when she contacted other professors just now, she could not find them.
"I know." When the little Professor Flitwick heard this, he immediately responded with his somewhat high-pitched voice, "I will try to find a way to find out - if they are still in this community, they should not be there." It'll be too hard to find. It's just... Minerva, you know, the problem is what to do with it once you find it."
"At least we have to find out their origins first." Mag said, and couldn't help but frowned, but finally said, "These are extraordinary times. If necessary... it's not that we can't use some extraordinary means. Everything can be done." Keeping the children safe is our priority.”
"Okay," Flitwick subconsciously touched his wand and nodded, "I understand."
Although this old professor of Charms, who is said to have a bit of goblin blood, has short arms and short legs, his movements are not ambiguous at all. After understanding Mag's thoughts, he immediately turned around and walked quickly across the street. .
But at this moment, a silver-white stream of light suddenly appeared from the other side of the street and ran towards Mag at high speed. Seeing this scene, Flitwick paused in his steps and turned around in the middle of the road to look at each other with Professor McGonagall.
"It's Sirius."
Minerva only took one look at the big dog dragging the silver light towards her, and immediately recognized it. It was Sirius's patron saint.
And soon, the big silver dog stopped in front of Minerva. Before it opened its mouth, Sirius's voice came out of it.
"Professor McGonagall, I have probably found them, but... Anyway, I didn't alert them, I just kept an eye on them outside. Now I'm waiting for you at the northernmost intersection of the community. You'd better bring someone over here quickly. , I’m worried that they will do something strange soon—”
Before he finished speaking, the big silver dog quietly turned into a particle of light and disappeared from the spot.
"I didn't expect that he was not only one step ahead of us, but also found it in such a short time... Filius, please go back and inform Pomona! By the way, if you can run into Severus, then... Call us too, I'll go to Sirius first to ask about the situation."
"good."
Flitwick had no objection to her arrangement. He just nodded and turned to leave. After Minerva watched him leave, she turned around and headed straight to the north of the community that Sirius had mentioned.

That's right, when Sirius just sent the Patronus to send a message to Professor McGonagall, Sirius hesitated and ultimately did not include the content about Snape. Because although the use of the Patronus Charm invented by Dumbledore was clever and quick, it was always a one-way conversation. He was not sure whether there was anyone else around Professor McGonagall at the time.
As for Snape... even though he has always hated that "snot-nosed man", he also knows that the other person is now... or seems to have always been "one of his own". Even though his previous behavior made him look very suspicious, the guy just put on a nonchalant attitude, which made Sirius feel a little uncertain for a moment.
All in all, let’s wait until Professor McGonagall comes over and then talk face to face!
Thinking like this, Sirius' attention was actually not much distracted by his thoughts. He kept staring at the old apartment room where Snape had just stayed, making sure that no figure left it during this period.
Yes, there was an anti-Apparition spell that could cover it, and because it was a Muggle community, he didn't have to worry that the other party would find a way to use the fireplace to sneak away.
Those guys haven't shown up yet, so they should still be inside.
And just when Sirius gradually began to try to guess the purpose of that group of people and their relationship with Snape, a slightly lowered voice suddenly sounded from behind him, interrupting his thinking.
"Meow-"
It was a cat meow.
Along with this slight meow, Sirius saw a thin tabby cat suddenly jump from the wall, and before landing, it turned into Professor Minerva McGonagall, whose eyes exuded a serious light.
"Sirius," Minerva adjusted her pointed hat slightly, glanced out of the alley, and asked softly without pausing, "How is it? Which building is it?"
"It's the building diagonally opposite, the oldest one... Did you see it? The window with the curtains half-closed is... But I haven't actually seen those people, so I can't be completely sure - they are well hidden. very good."
"Um."
While listening to Sirius's low voice, Minerva looked toward the window he was talking about. The square gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose glowed faintly.
From here, you can actually see what's inside the window, and you can see that there isn't even a single figure inside, as if it had always been an empty room that had long been uninhabited.
But she knew in her heart that Sirius was never an aimless person, and the truth was certainly not as simple as it seemed.
But at this moment, she suddenly heard Sirius groaning for a moment beside her, as if he was hesitating for something.
"What's wrong?" Minerva turned to look at him.
"I was just thinking that there might be some complications behind this matter," Sirius shook his head, and then frowned, "Professor McGonagall... In fact, this time I followed Snape's trail to find this place. , and just now, I met with him."
