[HP] Magic didn't give up on you
Chapter 102
After the long-awaited wedding, followed by a sudden funeral.
Edgar Bones, the leader of the Ministry of Magic's Reversal of Incidents Team, one of the original members of the Order of the Phoenix, came from the very prestigious Burns family in the magic world.Like the Weasley family, the Burns family has always been unequivocally committed to resisting Voldemort's propositions and actions. It is not surprising that they were liquidated by the mysterious man and the Death Eaters, because the Burns family has always been so resolute. Defending justice and peace, they are one of the most powerful families in the anti-mysterious alliance.
Not surprising, but hard to accept.Except for Weasley, the population of each family with a long history of wizards is decreasing year by year, and the direct lineage of the Bones family is only a dozen or so. It has been damaged in the war before, but after encountering the Death Eaters After the siege, there was only an elderly lady, Amelia Bones who had just graduated from Hogwarts, and her sister-in-law who had just found out she was pregnant.The three of them happened to go to St. Mungo's together that day. Firstly, they checked Sophia Bones's newly pregnant body, and secondly, they prescribed a magic remedy to relieve the symptoms of grandma who had recently become less able to see things clearly. Medicine, luckily escaped unharmed.
But for these three Bones who lost all their relatives, it is too ironic to say these words related to luck to them at this time.The news that the Burns family was purged was like growing wings, and it flew everywhere in a very short time. A pure-blood family with such a long history and many outstanding wizards was killed in this way. When the Death Eaters wanted to Cleaning a family seems no more difficult than eating and drinking.This made the sky of the entire wizarding world shrouded in a gloomy haze, making everyone breathless.
If you don't take refuge in the mysterious person, you will die.When the alliance uses various methods to encourage people to fight and use their own power to fight against the mysterious person who wants to commit suicide, such an intuitive end is like pouring cold water on everyone's face, making it difficult for many people The courage that mustered up suddenly dissipated invisible.
No one can blame these people who want to quit, the fear of death is human nature.
Nothing could be worse than the loss of such a family of such strong support and such an inspiring core to their union, and they lost such a good friend as Edgar.He is an excellent colleague, a reliable partner, stable and mature, and his optimism and tenacity have not been worn down by the current situation of successive years of decline.Everything can be entrusted to him, he is such a trustworthy person-and now that he is gone, they need to immerse themselves in the grief of losing such a close friend... and the cruel reality is that they can't even grieve like this There is no time, everyone must cheer up at the first time and respond quickly.
"Let me confirm again." Eli said wearily. He had said too much in the past three days, and even his voice had become hoarse. "Has Edgar become any of our secretaries? Or is he In our own house? The death of the secret keeper means the ineffectiveness of the Loyalty Curse, we cannot bear the subsequent losses in a series, we cannot let such a thing happen, we must deal with it as soon as possible."
"There is no news we know so far." James whispered, his voice also slightly hoarse.After getting married, he and Lily only took one day of their wedding leave—it was impossible to have the honeymoon they should have had these years, so they could only save together and wait until all the dust settled before going to make up for it.But even though he hasn't been on a honeymoon, everyone can still see happiness and joy from his face every day recently. He has maintained a dizzy state during this period, as if he has been floating in the sky—and Boen The cleansing of the Si family dragged him down from the sky, and brought him back to this cold and cruel reality.
"Edgar doesn't have one." Moody replied affirmatively, one magic eye twitched, and the other normal eye stared at Eli, "He has an encrypted information box reserved in advance, which contains some information about The secrets he keeps and holds can be checked after his death, and used to finish all the things he has no time to deal with. I went to confirm that your worries do not exist, and he did things very well, you know , He has always been a steady and cautious person, and he has always been reassuring."
He paused and didn't continue talking.Maybe talking about a dead colleague is completely familiar to him, he has experienced such things many times... But it doesn't mean that he can feel numb and indifferent.
"I don't know Edgar's brother Joseph very well. Dumbledore is using his channel to confirm. If he hasn't sent any news back until now, then there should be nothing wrong." Moody said gruffly. Beside him, Hagrid wiped his eyes vigorously, wiped his face with a handkerchief the size of a washcloth, and sniffed loudly.
"Where's Edgar?" Sirius asked to the point. "He's a senior official of the Ministry of Magic. The Death Eaters will definitely try to pry something out of his mouth at all costs. In the eyes of those people, he may More attractive than You-Know-Who himself."
"We should be able to rest assured about this." Arthur said in a low voice, accompanied by a light sigh, "For an ancient family like Burns, if you don't want to tell a secret, the Death Eaters have nothing to do with him. I'm afraid Voldemort himself can't have any countermeasures. The inheritance of the Burns family should not be underestimated. Didn't Edgar die with six Death Eaters in the end? He has done everything he can, and this life The last of them was also beautifully done."
The meeting hall of the Order of the Phoenix fell silent again, and everyone couldn't help thinking about the fact that he was no longer in this world, and no one could help but feel pain.
"That's it for now." Eli said in a low voice, his voice hoarse, and even the words he confided seemed difficult, "Tomorrow is the funeral of the Burns family, if you are going, remember to hide yourself...for yourself and for us For the sake of all, we don't want to see someone fall forever in front of us again. Edgar is not the first, nor will he be the last, but we hope that their sacrifices are meaningful and can inject vitality into our future battles. A shot in the arm. At this point, we have no choice but to fight or die."
His gaze scanned all the people in the room, looking slowly and carefully.Everyone exchanged glances with him in silence, no one spoke, and the conference room was once again immersed in a quiet and sad atmosphere.
They still have to do their own things and cannot be overwhelmed by this small piece of difficulty in front of them.Everyone went back to their respective posts. The director of the Auror office, Alastor Moody, hadn't left yet, his magic eyes were still circling around. When only the two of them were left in the conference room , looked at Eli, and didn't speak first.
"Alastor?" Eli looked at him questioningly.
"What were you trying to say in the meeting?" Moody asked him. "You didn't choose to say it in the end."
The emotion on Eli's face subsided, he and Moody looked at each other in silence for a while, and then exhaled helplessly.
"I don't understand." Eli said in a low voice, "A house like Burns' house must be protected by a protective spell. How could it be so easily broken into by Death Eaters? Also, Ah Melia said that the three of them went to St. Mungo's on a temporary basis, because her grandmother complained about her blurred eyes and was very bad-tempered, so they decided to go out before dinner... If it hadn't been for this accident, They should all be at home. The Death Eaters know the time, they know the details of our lives."
"You mean, some of us defected to You-Know-Who?" Moody asked sharply, his normal eye narrowing slightly.
Eli was silent for a long time.
His shoulders slumped slightly, his eyelids drooped, and he said in a low voice, "I hope I'm wrong."
The funeral of the Burns family was held in secret. No matter how chaotic the world is, no matter how dangerous the dead are, the dead must always be buried decently. Even though the Burns family was almost wiped out, they still have their own persistence. Because of the excessive attention to ostentation and material life, no matter what the situation is, as a Burns, he must hold his head high and live with dignity.
Amelia Bones obviously inherited such a fine family tradition.Her long gray hair was cut short, and she wore a black gown as she represented the Burns family in receiving funeral guests.She had excellent grades during school, and after graduation, she entered the Department of Legal Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic. She has extremely strong personal abilities, and as long as she grows with a little time, she will have a bright future.But now she doesn't have the time to move forward step by step. Everything has been pressed on the fast-forward button and must grow overnight.
She did it well without making her elderly grandma and pregnant sister-in-law bother her.She is not a member of the Order of the Phoenix, but she obviously knows that her brother is also in it. When the members of the Order of the Phoenix arrived, she did not show any special reaction, but when Eli held her hand, she glanced at him. , the lips moved.
She ended up saying nothing, and neither did Eli.He feels that there is nothing to comfort her now, and he can only be guilty and silent in the face of such a gaze.
But Amelia obviously wasn't expecting an answer, she was just going her own way.
Eli's eyes fell on Sophia Bones, and saw that her face was full of depression and depression, like a flower that was half-bloomed and burned clean by a fire, showing a kind of hopeless desolation.
Eli's eyes lingered on her stomach for a few seconds, feeling a heart-pounding pain.The new child of the Burns family will not be born until next year, and his and Penny's two children will be born in August this year, and there are only two more months left...
Can they be born into this world smoothly?Can I see the children smoothly?If he is like Edgar, and one day his life is suddenly harvested by the scythe of death, what will Petunia do?If his wife, his companion, and his most sympathetic lover have to go through such a thing, how can he avoid these very likely futures?
Eli was immersed in his own world, quietly silent.Not far behind him, Remus shook hands with Amelia Bones, and walked inside with his friends, their faces all looking a little pale.
"My father said that a family like Burns couldn't have been completely unprepared." James said in a deep voice, his face extremely serious, "This blow and cleansing is really too precise, as if they knew it in advance. normal."
"It's easy to explain." Sirius said indifferently, with a cold tone, "Someone of us sent him a message. Remember? Edgar actually mentioned in the Order of the Phoenix that he was going home for a family gathering on the weekend. We I heard it all."
"How is it possible?" James asked in surprise, denying without thinking, "People in the Order of the Phoenix won't—we haven't recruited any more people recently, and everyone is already familiar with each other. If anyone would give the mysterious person If you pass on the news, you should have exposed your feet a long time ago, and it won't last until now—what kind of clever deception is needed to deceive all of us?"
"Perhaps... perhaps, the news leaked this time was just an accident?" Peter suddenly whispered, Yuanyuan's eyes blinked quickly, and everyone didn't care, after all, their friends often seemed a little nervous.
"For example—for example, this kind of small news, everyone would feel that it is harmless, and it was leaked accidentally, and it did not expect to cause such disastrous consequences? The development of the matter is too unexpected, isn't it? Death Eaters... Eaters The Dead Apostles don’t need a reason at all... Maybe it’s not because of the leak from our side, they just... they just don’t like the Burns family..."
Sirius shrugged and shook his head.
"Don't have such naive thoughts, Wormtail." He said coldly, "How can it be an accident to leak information? Don't betray your friends, and live up to the person who shared the secret with you. A person's bottom line, betrayal is betrayal, any sophistry is meaningless, understand?"
clear.Peter's voice faded away, and he was half a step behind his friends as usual, bowing his head deeply without anyone noticing.
