Chapter 808 (1/2)
There was an immediate commotion in the kitchen.
”We are old, too!” Cried Fred and George.
”If Harry allows me to know, why can't I?” This is Ron's call.
”Mom, I want to listen!” Ginny is lamenting.
”No!” Growled Mrs. Weasley. She stood up and her eyes widened. ”I absolutely forbid -”
”Molly, you can't stop Fred and George.” ”They're old enough,” Mr. Weasley said wearily
”They are still students.”
”But legally they are adults now,” Mr. Weasley continued in the same tired voice.
Mrs. Weasley's face turned red. ”I - Oh, well, Fred and George stay, but Ron --”
”Harry and van Lin will tell me and Hermione everything you say!” Ron said eagerly.
”Yes - is it?” He added uncertainly, looking at Harry.
For a moment, Harry thought about telling Ron that he couldn't say a word, so Ron could experience being in the dark and see if he liked it.
But the despicable thought disappeared in the moment they looked at each other.
”Of course I will,” said Harry. Ron cheered.
”Good!” Cried Mrs. Weasley.
”Good! Ginny go to bed
Ginny won't leave quietly. They could hear her yelling at her mother all the way up the stairs, and when they got to the hall, Mrs. Black's deafening scream joined the farce.
Lu Ping rushed to the portrait to restore calm. Then when he came back, closed the kitchen door, and sat back in the chair in front of the table, Sirius began to speak.
”Oh, Harry What do you want to know? ”
Harry took a deep breath and asked questions that had been bothering him for a month.
”Where is Voldemort?” He asked, ignoring the new shudder and retreat caused by the name. ”What is he doing now? I tried to keep an eye on the Muggle news, but it didn't look like anything happened, there was no weird death or anything else
”It can only be said that there are still no strange deaths so far,” Sirius said. ”In any case, we can't all know But we know a lot... ”
”More than fudge thinks we have in every way,” lupin added.
”Then why did he stop killing?” Harry asked. He knew that Voldemort had murdered more than one person last year alone.
”That's because he doesn't want to be noticed,” Sirius said. ”It's very dangerous for him now. His recovery was not as perfect as he thought, you know. He messed it up. ”
”Or rather, you screwed up his business.” Lupin showed a satisfied smile.
”What do you say?” Harry asked, puzzled.
”You survived unexpectedly!” Said Sirius. ”No one would have known he had recovered except his death eaters. But you survived and became a witness. ”
”And the last person he wants to disturb at the moment is Dumbledore,” lupin said. ”But you let Dumbledore know about it immediately.”
”Does that help?” Harry asked.
”Are you kidding?” Bill said rashly, ”everyone knows that Dumbledore is the only wizard the man is afraid of!”
Van Lim frowned. For the order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore is supreme, which is not a good thing.
”It's not like that.” Van leen suddenly said, ”Dumbledore's threat at Hogwarts, that's just Hogwarts. It doesn't mean Voldemort is afraid.”
”What are you talking about?” Bill said in disbelief.
”I've felt his magic. I mean, Voldemort's magic. I don't think that can be a reason to be careless. Harry should be more on his own than on Dumbledore.”
”Did you feel his magic? Why don't I know about it? ” Sirius said in surprise.
”Or how do you think I came back? Phantom shift? Voldemort has a knack for blocking space
”So you're under the Voldemort's hand...”
”You should know the true strength of Dumbledore, Sirius.” ”Through this, Voldemort's recovery period doesn't take that long, and he still has...”
”Vampire...” Sirius suddenly thought of the targets he was tracking, the vampires who were frantically collecting black magic relics.
”What the hell is going on here?” Harry asked angrily.
”What we're dealing with.” Van Lim said, ”Voldemort's plan, all...””All?”
”Well, first of all, he's going to rebuild his army,” said Fanlin. ”In the past, he's commanded a large number of members; the witches and witches he coerced or bewitched to follow him, his loyal death eaters, and a lot of different dark creatures. You also hear him trying to recruit giants again, and yes, they used to be part of that man. Voldemort is not sure that he can replace the Ministry of magic with just a dozen of the dead. ”
”So do you do your best to prevent him from gaining more followers?”
