Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1379 Snape ran away

   They appeared!

The Death Eaters who were patrolling the Hogwarts castle late at night realized that Dumbledore's Army had really come out of the Room of Requirement after they noticed the hot feeling from the magic coin in their hands, and planned to go to the castle dungeon at night save people.

  However, just when all the Death Eaters were reminded and their spirits lifted, they failed to get a second reminder, which meant that they missed someone or that the enemy had passed towards the dungeon.

  The similar method of transmitting information was improved by Snape based on the method of using Dumbledore's Army previously provided by Malfoy.

As for the use of communication bookmarks by the Defense Association as a delivery tool, the Death Eaters would also like to, but that thing obviously cannot be manufactured in a short time, because most Death Eaters are better at using black magic than transformation spells, even if they Threatening Professor McGonagall to help make communication bookmarks, they may not dare to use them.

   "The Death Eaters seem to have spotted us."

   Halfway to the castle dungeon, Arthur noticed the red light on the side of the watch, stopped and looked sideways at his sons.

"The Death Eaters probably have some kind of contact information." Fred and George looked at each other, not surprised, "From the very beginning, we have already guessed that this is a trap, since it is a trap, they must have quick contact in order to completely surround us."

   Both Arthur and Bill were very surprised by this, because the members of the Defense Association were quite calm about this, as if being discovered by the enemy was also expected. They are very curious about what this group of people usually do, and why they seem to be more experienced than them.

Probably aware of the surprised gazes of the two, George chuckled and explained in a low voice, "The worst case scenario is an all-out battle with the Death Eaters. Our duel level is not inferior to theirs. The reason for choosing secrecy is to let this time The operation is smoother."

"Also, don't forget that the actions of the Death Eaters are under our control. They probably don't know this. We have had an absolute advantage from the very beginning." Fred, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped in his tracks. , turned around and made a boo gesture to everyone behind him, and then made another gesture that neither Arthur nor Bill could understand.

  However, all the people around them quietly gathered together, and after forming a dense array, they took out their glasses from their pockets and put them on.

   "three two one"

Fred made a gesture, and after finishing the countdown, he suddenly threw an Albert-made flare towards the corner of the corridor. Under the cover of white light, the twins put on the team that had already put on their sunglasses, and suddenly appeared in the corner corridor, toward the corner of the corridor. Watching the three Death Eaters whose eyes were flashed by the dazzling light cast spells, they successfully completed triple kills in the blink of an eye.

   "You guys..."

   Both Arthur and Bill were stunned by Fred's actions.

   "Flash bombs are especially useful at night, and can blind others' eyes by surprise. This time I brought a few here specially, but I didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly.

   "Nobody around."

   "Clean the battlefield."

   "What a poor man!"

  After completing the reasonable allocation of resources to the three Death Eaters, they tied everyone up with ropes and threw them into the empty classroom next door.

   "Three more."

  Fred picked up the flashbang, looking in a good mood.

   "Actually, we should take this opportunity to turn them into mice, capture them and raise them in captivity, so as to prevent them from continuing to harm others." Someone reminded in a low voice.

   Fighting Death Eaters is everyone's responsibility, but if you only beat them and then let them go, it's almost as unnecessary as taking off your pants and farting.

"No, if the Death Eaters are all let us be harmed, the mysterious man will definitely take revenge on Hogwarts after he finds out. It's better not to affect the students of the school, and we are not ready to formally declare war on the mysterious man .”

  Speaking of the start of the war, the surrounding atmosphere became extremely serious, and everyone present knew that there was going to be a battle between them and the mysterious man.

   It's just that the time has not yet come.

  So they can't be in a hurry, they need to wait slowly.

  …

On the other side, just after bringing down a dark wizard who was about to remind the Aurors, Kingsley skillfully used the Imperius Curse to control the dark wizard, and let him enter the lounge to send a message to the Aurors: someone has invaded the castle , need their help.

   "What the hell!"

Rubbing their sleepy eyes, the tired-looking Aurors came out of the room one by one. When they were reluctant to leave the room, they seemed to sense something and raised their heads to look in a certain direction, but they had already It was a step too late, because a red spell flew out from the tip of the wand in front of him, knocking down all five Aurors in one breath.

  Facts have proved once again that sneak attacks do work.

   "It went even smoother than expected."

Cedric bent down and picked up the wand that fell on the ground and stuffed it into the non-marking stretch bag specially used for storing wands. He turned his head and looked at Kingsley and said, "We should split up and go to reinforce Sirius and Lupine while the other team Join Fred and George."

   "I'm going to help Sirius and Lupine."

  Kingsley said without thinking, he actually wanted to kill Snape too.

  Before leaving, Kingsley glanced at the Aurors who were easily taken over by them, and sighed softly, "I'll leave Arthur to you."

  At this moment, Sirius and Lupine who were about to kill Snape did encounter a little trouble.

They originally planned to throw Snape down as planned, and then throw him down the stairs to die, but when the magic gold coin started to heat up, it ended Snape's communication with Dumbledore, forcing him to pick up his wand, ready to go out and control the situation.

  However, Snape's years of vigilance saved his life. When he sensed something was wrong, he almost instinctively raised his wand to block Sirius' sneak attack, and retreated back into the headmaster's office before Lupine's spell struck.

   "Sirius and Lupine are outside."

  Snape used a spell to temporarily seal the headmaster's office door.

   "If I were you, I would leave the principal's office immediately. This place is no longer safe, and that wooden door can't stop them at all." Dumbledore guessed what Fred and George wanted to do.

"No, there is no one in the Ministry of Magic at this time, and once I go to the Ministry of Magic to seek reinforcements, I will probably be stuck in the fireplace." Snape's face was ugly, he never dreamed that he would be blocked in the office .

"Don't hesitate, believe me, Sirius wants to kill you more than Lupine." Dumbledore finally warned, "If you don't leave, when more of them come, you really can't escape. "

   Yes, there is only one chance.

   Sirius and Lupine would never mind having Snape die unexpectedly.

   "It's really embarrassing."

  Snape clenched the wand in his hand, slowly put it down, and then went to the fire, grabbed a handful of Floo powder from the box, sprinkled it into the burning fireplace, and disappeared directly into the rising forest green flames.

   Shortly after Snape disappeared, a flashbang was thrown through the torn wooden door.

   A few seconds later, Sirius and Lupine rushed into the principal's office, only to find that everything inside was empty.

   "Damn it, where did that damned traitor go?"

  Sirius raised his wand to vigilantly look around. After confirming that Snape was not in the principal's office, he couldn't help cursing anymore. He thought he could kill Snape to avenge Dumbledore

   Well, although this is their wishful thinking, now is indeed the best opportunity.

  Actually, if Snape hadn't come out by himself just now, after the rescue operation was over, members of the Order of the Phoenix would gather to besiege Snape.

  Unfortunately, Snape came out of the office and narrowly escaped unharmed, which made Sirius regret why he didn't prepare Felicia for himself.

   If you really drink the Felicity Potion, maybe you will succeed in revenge.

   "He has already run away. He just used Floo powder and went to the Ministry of Magic to find reinforcements." Phineas looked up and down at his great-great-grandson, surprised that the other party had the audacity to enter Hogwarts.

   "Damn it, I didn't expect him to run away." Sirius gritted his teeth.

   "We need help to prevent the Death Eaters outside from reinforcing Hogwarts through the fireplace." Lupine looked at Phineas's portrait and asked, "Do you know how many fireplaces in the school are connected to the outside world?"

   Phineas deliberately ignored Lupine's words, because he didn't want to talk to the werewolf.

   "Tell me everything you know." Sirius pointed his wand at Phineas's portrait in a murderous spirit, threatening, "Otherwise, I will directly burn your painting."

   "It's useless for you to threaten me, if you don't know, you don't know." Phineas was very dissatisfied with the threat of his great-great-grandson.

   "Damn it, Remus sent them a message, the Death Eaters seem to know about our actions, let them rescue the guy in the dungeon as soon as possible!"

   "No, they already know." Lupine pointed to his watch and said, "Are we going to join the others?"

   "No, there are enough manpower over there. Let's stay here first. I don't believe they dare to use the Floo network to come over."

  Sirius used the Disillusionment Charm again to hide himself, and they pointed their wands at the fireplace from all directions, ready to bring down the Death Eaters who had just emerged from the fireplace at any time.
