Chapter 122
Recently, due to the commotion caused by Voldemort's return, although he was defeated, he would make a comeback at any time, and Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic had a private confrontation, so the Order of the Phoenix had to be restarted in advance.
And because Black's old house is now Shaw's home, the temporary headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix can only be changed.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or the old bee will only catch one family?
This time, the temporary headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix was set up at the home of Tonks' parents who were still in the Auror assessment this year.
Tonks' mother, born Andromeda Black, was Narcissa and Bella's eldest sister.
Andromeda was the de facto first rebel of the last generation of the Black family, married the Muggle wizard Ted Tonks, and was expelled from Black.
Andromeda's house is on the outskirts of London. In the original book, it was set as a safe house, which provided an escape route for the real Harry in the "Seven Harry Potters".
But now this small three-storey bungalow, which is regarded as a rather majestic one in the Muggle world, is protected by layers of protective spells, and even has the Charm of Fidelity and Loyalty.
Today, members of the Order of the Phoenix held a meeting as usual to report, summarize, and analyze the latest intelligence gains.
In a well-lit, temporarily arranged small conference room.
Sitting here are Moody, Arthur Weasley and his wife Molly, Mundungus (the one who stole the Slytherin pendant in the original book), Kingsley, Tonks and more than a dozen people.
Of course, there are also some "fresh faces", such as Efia Dogo, Dedalo Digo, Emmeline Vance.
As the host of the meeting, Moody, who was in a bad shape, limped to the front and was dissatisfied with the analysis of various photos and materials plastered on the wall.
"Are those purebloods crazy? Why are they collecting advanced alchemy materials? The prices in Knockturn Alley have also been raised a lot."
"But we've been following them for so long, and we haven't found any sign that these people are in contact with the Dark Lord. It's a waste of work."
"Well, Arthur, you still haven't contacted Lupine? We need information on werewolves."
Arthur stood up, touched the few red hairs on his head, coughed and said.
"No, Lupine's identity is known to everyone. He couldn't find a good job, so he could only go to the fringe black areas to make a living. It's hard to determine his whereabouts."
Moody slammed the crutch on the ground a few times, very dissatisfied.
"Damn it, when it comes to employing people, you can't find them. Kingsley, isn't Amelia Burns, the Director of Legal Enforcement, still unwilling to join us? His brother is the founder of the Order of the Phoenix! He's still dead. In the hands of the Dark Lord!"
The capable bald Kingsley shook his head.
"Before the last Wizarding War, the Burns family was the most powerful family in the British wizarding world, but now their population has withered. Amelia's choice is understandable. She can maintain a fair attitude towards us. gone."
Moody pointed to his alchemy eyeballs and alchemy prosthesis, and loudly refuted.
"Human decline? These are all cowardly excuses, look at me like this? Is there anyone worse than me? Hmph, sooner or later she will know the consequences of allowing black wizards to run rampant!"
The others did not respond to Moody. Although they were all brave and dared to fight against the darkness, they were not as extreme or even crazy as Moody.
Moody glanced around with his beady eyes, and found that no one was arguing with him, which was very boring.
Suddenly, his crazy eyes locked on somewhere, and immediately strode towards the corner, pulling the short and strong Mundungus up.
"Boy, let me see what are you writing! Huh? Are you copying the compiled information? Say, what do you want to do?"
Mundungus' forehead was covered with sweat, and he stammered as he explained.
"Don't, don't get me wrong, I just copied it because of my bad memory."
Moody pressed his eyeballs to Mundungus's face, and said in a nasty voice.
"I really don't understand why Dumbledore believes you, a sneaky bastard! I hope you don't do anything wrong!"
Mundungus was very afraid of the Mad-Eye who captured half of the prisoners in Azkaban, and explained carefully again.
"How could it be? I really have a bad memory. I'm going to copy it down and memorize it at home. After all, I'm the person in charge of dealing with black wizards in those black areas. It's not good."
Moody let go of Mundungus.
"Hmph! I'll keep an eye on you!"
Glaring Mundungus a vicious look, Moody went back to the front again and continued to chair the meeting.
"Has any of you investigated the news about Shaw Black? His agent in the Muggle world has been running all over the world recently. By the way, who is responsible..."
Behind Kingsley, a pink-haired woman with a peach heart, chewing bubble gum in her mouth, whispered enviously.
"Mr. Moody is really awesome. My Auror training would be done by him himself."
This woman was none other than Tonks, Andromeda's daughter, a Hufflepuff born with a Disguise Magus.
Well, she's Shaw's cousin.
When Kingsley heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Nymphadora, I think you should stop having such fantasies. Training with me is already good. Follow Moody, I'm afraid you will cry."
Tonks' hair turned from pink to jet black immediately, and he was dissatisfied.
"Don't call me Nymphadora!"
Although Nymphadora has the meaning of a little fairy in mythology, in the UK, this name is derogatory and very indecent, similar to the "Miss" in the Chinese population today.
So Tonks hated being called her by that name very much.
Kingsley didn't bother with Tonks about this, and asked in a low voice.
"Your excellent cousin, the savior, really didn't contact your family? He seems to have re-established diplomatic relations with the Malfoy family."
Tonks said disapprovingly on his face.
"The Malfoy family is rich and powerful, what a normal thing, I don't care about admiring rich and powerful relatives."
Naturally, Kingsley didn't want to ask this question, but he couldn't find the right words for a while, so he asked the intern Auror to find out about Black.
This meeting was just a simple regular meeting. The really important information and missions were issued and forwarded by Dumbledore. Snape didn't even attend, so the meeting ended quickly.
The crowd dispersed, and Mundungus walked last, walking along the corner and walking along a corner of the Tonks family's silver jewelry.
When he came to a place outside where there was no anti-apparition, he found a corner and put on the black cloak, and an apparition appeared in Knockturn Alley.
He was familiar with the way all the way, and after turning seven turns in the intricate alley, he appeared in front of a small dark door.
Mundungus stepped forward and knocked on the door with his hands, and the frequency of knocking was very regular.
After a while, a person who was also very tightly covered opened the door and looked outside with his head left and right.
He let the wretched Mundungus in after finding nothing unusual, and opened the door directly after closing the door.
"Have you brought all the information?"
Mundungus was stunned. Why was this man different from the last time he spoke? His voice was a little older.
But he's doing things with money, so it doesn't matter.
He took out a stack of handwritten parchments from his pocket, and took out his wand as well.
"It's all here, where is the money?"
The other party didn't mean to be black and white, so he took out a money bag.
The transaction went well.
After Mundungus went out, he took a detour and walked for a while, before appearing in front of a dilapidated small door again. . . .
Chapter 123 Summoning Death Eaters
The Order of the Phoenix took action, and the Death Eaters naturally also took action.
The conference room in the dark castle was once again filled with smog.
"Lucius! What do you mean? Are you really wearing a pair of pants with the Black boy now?"
"Flint, what's so strange about you, hmph, isn't the Malfoy family always like this?"
"Selwyn, I advise you to voluntarily give up the seat of the school director, so as not to end up with nothing!"
"Gol, do you know what you're talking about? I helped you last time."
"..."
Bojinbok rubbed his chin, looked at the noisy crowd with cloudy eyes, and glanced at Lucius who was as stable as Mount Tai.
He was somewhat puzzled by the recent actions of the Malfoy patriarch, who joined forces with Goyle, Clark, and Nott and other families to purchase high-end alchemy materials.
Now he started running for Black again, trying to find back the position of school manager that belonged to Black.
Bojinbok really wanted to follow the drumbeat of sleek Lucius, but the other party didn't accept cooperation, after all, he was not a Death Eater.
He asked quietly to Yaxley, who was also sitting and observing beside him.
"Do you have any gossip? I can exchange it with you."
A look of ferocity flashed in Yaxley's eyes, and he nodded after thinking that the other party was the owner of the biggest shop in Knockturn Alley, and he should be well informed.
"I also have a message here, but I don't know if your message is worth my exchange."
Bojinboke smiled and said in a greasy voice.
"I, Bojinbok, can be fooled by all ages,..."
"Shut up, you, and get straight to the point."
"Ahem, okay, okay, because of the confidentiality contract, I can only click sideways. Whether you can understand is up to you. The alchemy materials that Lucius collected are related to the black color of Hogwarts. Tell your news."
Alex narrowed his eyes, and he understood it instantly, and cursed secretly, is this also called innocent?
"The news I got is from the Order of the Phoenix. My werewolf informant said that they are looking for a man named Lupine. I think we can start early."
Bojinbok glanced at Alex with dissatisfaction, that's it?
When he was dissatisfied and about to ask Alex for more information, Lucius, dressed in luxurious clothes and with a slightly raised chin, finally spoke.
"You all shut up, I am not discussing with you, but an order!"
"Why? Pretending to be a wolf with a big tail!"
"Heh! Do you think you are still the popular person in front of the Dark Lord ten years ago?"
"joke!"
Lucius looked at the most violent dancers with disdain, and was about to announce a shocking news.
"The Dark Lord..."
