94 Diagon Alley

     Harry buried himself deep in an armchair next to Hermione.

    "I really hope Professor McGonagall is fine," Lavender said tearfully.

    "They took her back to the castle, we saw it from the dorm window," Colin Creevey said. "She didn't look good."

    Hermione trembled and said, "Poor Professor McGonagall... Four stun spells hit her directly on the chest, she's really not young anymore, is she?"

    "Mrs. Pomfrey will cure her," Arya said firmly. "Mrs. Pomfrey has never failed."

    The next day, Ginny invites Gwen and Luna to Hagrid's cabin to help him take care of Fang and the rest of the house—"the sweet little ones"—Gwen has been with him since fourth grade. Didn't take any Fantastic Beasts lessons, just to avoid Hagrid's little darlings. But she had just gone through a small test in the potions class, and she really wanted to breathe some fresh air, so she followed the two girls to the Forbidden Forest.

    It took them almost an afternoon to get the food of the Flobber caterpillar and the fried tail snail. Gwen also saw with her own eyes the mad girl Luna took out a few pieces of raw **** meat from her schoolbag and threw them in the clearing of the Forbidden Forest. She said that she was feeding some creatures called Thestral.

    "You're not serious, are you." Gwen was a little nervous, "Hogwarts kept Thestrals? Hagrid tamed thestrals?"

    Luna seemed to be wandering, did not answer Gwen's question, but after a while her face showed a gentle smile, as if seeing someone coming.

    Sure enough, the raw meat with blood on the ground disappeared little by little. Gwen couldn't help covering his mouth.

    "Hey, I heard from Ron that Thestrals pulled the Hogwarts carriage." Ginny blew a cool breath into Gwen's ear.

    Gwen felt goose bumps on his skin, "Next time I have a chance, I will bring some pieces of meat, maybe I can pick up a tail feather of a Nightstral."

    A snow-white hand reached out to Gwen. Luna stared at Gwen with her pretty light blue eyes. "I picked it up on the ground."

    Gwen was dubious, but Luna gave her the "air" and found that there was indeed a slender cold feather. She cheered, "Great, this core is not considered stable enough to be used in wand making. But that doesn't stop me from taking it back to old Garrick to try. Thanks, Luna."

    The younger witch of Ravenclaw shook her head and said nothing, looking at the wonderful decoration on her arm that could not be called a watch, "I hope there will be Yorkshire pudding for dinner today."

    "She means we should go back to the castle." Ginny said with a smile.

    The three girls returned to Hogwarts before sunset. When passing the broken classroom on the first floor, Ginny with pointed ears stopped.

    There were several people arguing in the room, and they could hear it clearly outside the door without having to take out the telescopic ear for Gwen to speak.

    "Anyway, every time I go to the Department of Mysteries, there is always no one—" a male voice shouted.

    "You've never been there, Harry," a female voice said softly, "you dreamed of that place, but that's all."

    "Those are not ordinary dreams!" The voice was accompanied by impatient footsteps, "How do you explain what happened to Ron's dad? What was it all about? How did I know him What happened?"

    "He's on point," said a third voice softly.

    "But it's--it's so impossible!" The female voice was too anxious to say, "Harry, Sirius is always in Grimmauld Place, how could Voldemort catch him?"

    "He's not here!" exclaimed the first grumpy male voice, "since the last time I got the double-sided mirror and retractable ears, I haven't contacted Sirius once - he said he was going Find Dumbledore - neither of them are there."

    "Hermione, Harry saw them!" another male voice urged.

    "But Harry—if your dream was—just a dream?" said the female voice uncertainly.

    The first male voice growled in disappointment.

    "You don't understand! I'm not having nightmares, I'm not just dreaming! What do you think Occlumency is all about, why do you think Dumbledore doesn't want me to see these things? Because They're real, Hermione - Sirius did get caught, I saw him. Voldemort got him, and no one else knows, that means we're the only ones who can save him, if you don't want to Do, that's fine, but I'm going, understand?"

    Ginny finally couldn't bear it anymore and pushed open the door of the classroom. Harry, Ron and Hermione in the room turned sharply. Ginny walked in with a curious expression, and Gwen staggered in, presumably trying to stop but unsuccessfully. Luna followed her closely, her usual aimless expression on her face.

    "Hey," Ginny said suspiciously, "we heard Harry's voice. Why are you yelling?"

    "None of your business." Harry said rudely.

    Ginny raised her eyebrows. "There's no need to talk to me like that," she said calmly. "I just wondered if I could help."

    "Hmph, you can't help," said Harry briefly.

    "You're pretty rude, you know." Luna said calmly.

    Harry cursed and turned to leave. The last thing he wanted to do right now was talk to Luna.

    Gwen stopped him, "Harry, we all heard, about the Order of the Phoenix, Sirius and Dumbledore."

    Harry was stunned for a moment, and looked at the three girls with scary eyes, as if figuring out how likely they were to inform.

    Gwen doesn't care about Ginny's feelings, but she can be hurt by the boy with glasses.

    "What kind of eyes are you looking at?" Gwen pinched her waist and didn't forget to put the soundproofing spell on, "Ginny is your best friend's sister, I'm for your double-sided mirror and telescopic After lying in the medical wing for three days, Luna-" Gwen paused, realizing that Luna didn't know anything about the Order of the Phoenix, "Luna is an important member of the D.A.!" After she finished speaking, she nodded at the blonde girl head, as if this would convince each other more.

    "Wait," Hermione said suddenly, "wait...Harry, they can help."

    Harry and Ron looked at her.

    "Listen," she said eagerly, "Harry, we need to prove that Sirius did leave headquarters."

    "I told you, I saw—"

    "Harry, I beg you, I beg you!" said Hermione desperately. "Before we go to London, please let us see if Sirius is at home. If we find out he Not there, then I swear I won't stop you. I'll go with you, I'll do—do anything to try and save him."

    "Sirius is being tortured!" Harry cried. "We don't have time to waste."

    "But if it's Voldemort's trick, Harry, we have to check, we have to do it."

    "In what way?" Harry asked, "How do we check?"

    We'll have to use Umbridge's fire to see if we can get in touch with him. said Hermione, looking horrified by the idea herself. "We're going to pull Umbridge away again, but we need someone to look out for, and we can count on Gwen, Ginny, and Luna for this." . "

    "Again???" Gwen jumped up, "Have to poke her toad's nest? Why don't you ask George and Fred to go there and see? They are there too London…"

    "Because we have to use the fastest speed, and I have to see it with my own eyes." Harry's eyes were red, and he wanted to rush to the third floor immediately.

    Ginny was clearly still trying to figure out what was going on, but she immediately said, "Okay, we'll do it." And Luna said, "You're talking about the Order of the Phoenix. Are you talking about the Fantastic Beasts Protection Society?"

    No one answered her.

    "Okay," Hermione said, pacing between the desks, wringing her hands, "Okay...well...one of us has to find Umbridge, and Take her somewhere else, keep her away from the office. He can tell her that - let me think - Peeves is busy doing something bad as usual?"

    "I'll do it," said Ron immediately. "I'll tell her that Peeves is destroying the Transfiguration classroom or something, which is far from her office. To Peeves, I might be able to convince him to do it."

    "I'll help too." Gwen raised his hand. "I've got a gadget to attract attention. It's just not that big this time."

    Hermione did not object to destroying the Transfiguration classroom, which shows that the situation is very serious.

    "Okay," she said, frowning as she continued pacing, "Now, when we break in. Need to keep the students away from her office, or some Slytherin students will definitely report to her."

    "Luna and I can stand on both ends of the hallway," Ginny said quickly, "warning people not to go there, because there's a lot of chokehold gas." Ginny made it up so quickly Hermione looked surprised at the lie; Ginny shrugged and said, "Fred and George were going to do this before they left."

    Several people looked at Gwen, she waved her hand quickly, "I don't have throat lock gas in my hand."

    "Okay," said Hermione, "so, Harry, you and I put on the Invisibility Cloak, and we sneak into the office, and you can talk to Sirius about—"

    "He's not there. Hermione!"

    "I mean, you can- can check to see if Sirius is home, while I'm looking out, I don't think you should go in alone. Lee sent those sniffs in through the window, which indicate that there is a
