I abducted HP's friend on his wedding day

Chapter 97 Communication with Dumbledore

"You want to take the Brown brothers back?"

James scratched the back of his head and said with a smile, "Yes, Lily and I should have taken care of the two brothers."

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows, and then said with a slight smile: "Do you really regard them as your own children?"

James was surprised for a moment, and then he didn't care about Dumbledore's question at all: "Although there is no blood relationship, since they came to my and Lily's home, Lily and I have treated them as part of the family. the most important is……"

James showed a shy expression and said to Dumbledore: "Lily and I also promised to give them a place to live, and promised to fund them before they became independent. If it weren't for Lily and Harry being related to an inexplicable prophecy, they would The brothers should also stay at my house this holiday."

James looked a little apologetic: "It's all what we promised, but Lily and I broke our promise."

James is the one who promises the most. He has always felt guilty because he promised to take in Godric and Salazar, but failed to do so.

"Although you also understand that since Lily and I have been targeted by those people, we cannot implicate the two brothers. After all, they can be said to be completely innocent."

This completely innocent sentence made Dumbledore's heart skip a beat, and he couldn't help showing a trace of hesitation on his brows, but looking at James's appearance, Dumbledore just sighed tiredly.

"Since you and Lily have decided so, let's take those two children back."

Maybe James didn't think that much, but according to Lily's intelligence, she would not fail to see the weirdness in the brothers.

This is also the reason why Dumbledore has been reluctant to let Godric and Salazar go to the Potter family. Their identities are unknown. This is the biggest problem for their brothers, and the Potter family has another prophesied child. , Dumbledore was not willing to put Godric and Salazar, who had their own problems, next to James and Lily.

But this time it was Lily who requested it. Dumbledore believed that Lily had her own thoughts. Maybe he could try to trust Lily's own judgment.

Even so, Dumbledore lowered his eyes, still feeling uneasy.

"After all, you and Lily have just experienced a big crisis, and the Brown brothers are just underage wizards. Lily has to take care of a newborn child. I think it is not safe for you to protect them alone."

James nodded and said, "Yes, Lily also considered this issue, so I invited Sirius to move there together, and Sirius agreed."

Seeing this, Dumbledore could only nod in agreement with James' words.

"Sirius seems to be with his parents..." Dumbledore stopped talking, not knowing what to say. "Recently, the Black family has indeed been a little quiet, so quiet that it's puzzling. However, Voldemort's side seems to have stopped moving. I'm thinking that the pressure on your side will be less."

James doesn't know these things yet: "What's wrong with Sirius? Is he having any conflicts with his family again? Oops, I'm patronizing Lily and Harry, and I'm not paying attention to Sirius. I have to ask him if he needs help." , I will definitely provide a helping hand.”

As for Voldemort and the Death Eaters, to be honest, after experiencing Harry being robbed, James was a little sensitive to these people.

"Do they have another conspiracy?"

James didn't think those people would calm down. They were very arrogant and powerful, and they attacked several wizarding families, including his own. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grit his molars and spoke with emotion. Resentment and anger.

"Those guys must be brewing some big conspiracy."

Dumbledore comforted James: "You don't have to worry about this. Moody will pay more attention to it. If there is any abnormality, I will have someone notify you. You can just protect yourself."

Thinking of this, James couldn't help but feel worried. He felt that those guys would most likely attack him and Lily. But if that was the case, wouldn't it be best not to take Godric and Salazar over?

But Lily said she would take them home...

James planned to believe his wife. He knew that Lily was the smartest witch. Since he decided to take over the brothers and Sirius, there must be a plan.

After that, James and Dumbledore talked about things at the Ministry of Magic. Those guys were probably frightened by the bad behavior of the Death Eaters. Recently, there have been voices saying that they should not make enemies of Voldemort. Aurors It is probably the most determined force against Voldemort and the Death Eaters, mainly relying on the persistence of two people, Barty Crouch and Moody, who are upright by nature.

I hope the two of them can protect themselves too.

James couldn't help but ask Dumbledore to remind the two of them: "I heard that the Death Eaters are very hostile to them, and I don't know if they will do something behind the scenes because of their persistence. After all...kill people." They also do a lot of things."

Dumbledore sighed.

"And Fabian's funeral..."

Thinking of his comrades who died at his doorstep, James also became sad.

"Gideon arranged it for this weekend. It was probably just a funeral with few people. You and Lily...sigh..."

"Lily and I also have to participate!" James replied without thinking.

Dumbledore frowned: "If that's the case, have you considered Harry?"

"Take Harry..." James said hoarsely, this was inappropriate.

"Voldemort and the Death Eaters have been keeping an eye on Harry. Their main target is also the child. It's not suitable for you to take Harry there with you. Maybe you and Lily can come, then you should consider leaving Harry to Sirius' care temporarily. Yes." Dumbledore smiled. "Sirius has a younger brother and has had the experience of temporarily staying at Andromeda's house. He should be able to take good care of Harry."

Then, Dumbledore said the most important words: "You and Lily will bring Gust and Celes to the funeral."

He looked sad: "What a young boy Fabian is."

James only cared about losing such a brave friend and comrade.

"He was trying to protect me and Lily, if not..." James' tone was a little dry. "If it weren't for Peter's betrayal, maybe he wouldn't have died."

In fact, James had been very restrained in not thinking about or talking about Peter Pettigrew, but Fabian Prewett's sacrifice could never escape the existence of Peter Pettigrew.

"I don't know how I would have faced Prewett. If it weren't for Peter's betrayal, how could he have been brutally killed by the Death Eaters? And I didn't see anything unusual about Peter at all!"

James blamed himself for this: "If I take some time to check on Peter's situation, maybe I can find out something is wrong."

Dumbledore comforted James: "If you think so, I am also remiss. People's hearts are always difficult to understand. We are all responsible for Peter Pettigrew. When I learned that something happened to him and his mother, I He should have inquired about the situation as soon as possible, or if I could have reminded him in time, there would have been no more Death Eaters attacking Peter's family."

James didn't feel good at all. He actually convinced himself to understand Peter's betrayal. After all, he had always been cowardly and weak. However, Sirius was also attacked by Death Eaters because he wanted to ask him and Lily's address. As a result, the little boy was killed. Sirius did not waver in the face of death threats.

James still couldn't help but be a little prejudiced against Peter Pettigrew.

Why did Peter Pettigrew, who was also his best friend, give in so easily to what Sirius could do?

"I can understand that he has always been weak and lacks opinion. However, I cannot accept that he would turn around and hurt his former comrades so easily without any burden!"

This is probably James Potter's most unforgivable behavior.
