Chapter 1350 Trap
"Kevin, they're coming. I heard the apparition and we have to explain it to them."
In the house shrouded in night, suddenly the sharp alarm of the looking glass and the scream of the young woman panicked, as if trying to make the group of uninvited guests outside hear clearly.
However, the young woman's scream was meaningless. As soon as the man named Kevin realized it, the door of his own house "boomed" and was blown away by the evil guests in the middle of the night.
Three rude strangers in cloaks, whether they were employees of the Ministry of Magic or Death Eaters, broke into the room directly, and then the windows lit up.
As soon as the owner of the house raised his wand, he was knocked away by the spell of the intruder. His wife covered her face and screamed in panic when she saw her husband lying on the ground. But soon he was hit by the spell and passed out.
"Don't kill people."
Looking at the young couple who were knocked down and whose life and death were unknown, the leading man glared at his colleagues dissatisfied.
"Don't worry, they're just passing out temporarily."
As if to prove her words, the woman in the cloak reached out and pulled the hair of the fallen woman, slapped her several times in a row, shrugged her shoulders and said to their heads, "Look, she still has reactions, after a while I'm probably waking up."
"That would be great!"
A voice suddenly sounded from behind the three of them.
The next moment, a red light lit up in the room, and the guy who had just been so arrogant fell to the ground and passed out.
"Albert is right, it seems they are in a hurry!"
Fred signaled his companions around to search for loot, and he used the recovery spell to wake up the unconscious couple.
"You are the Order of the Phoenix!"
The man named Kevin did not have the joy of being rescued on his face. Instead, he looked at the person in fear, and kept moving back, as if the three people in front of him were infected with some kind of terrible plague.
"Oh, you know us, that's really..."
Angelina raised her eyebrows slightly, very dissatisfied with the reaction of the young wizard.
"Why, why would you..."
"Calm down, sir." Angelina seemed to have heard enough of similar words, and interrupted impatiently: "You have already been targeted by the Death Eaters, if we didn't help you, you and your wife would probably go to the Ministry of Magic first Go to trial. Don't expect you to be acquitted, you'll just be thrown into Azkaban, a place full of unlucky people like you."
"Well, time is precious."
Fred glanced at his watch, stopped Angelina who was about to say something, and said bluntly, "You guys go with us first. Whether you want to hide first or want to escape from England, we can help you." It's better for you to help than to stay in Azkaban with the dementors."
"It's all your fault. If it wasn't for your relationship, how could that group of people target us!" Kevin's wife growled angrily at the group of guys in cloaks in front of them.
In her opinion, this group of guys is no better than Death Eaters. If it weren't for the so-called Order of the Phoenix, their family would not have suffered such a disaster.
"We just saved you." The cloaked man reminded with a frown after picking up the loot, "Or, if you think we have a good temper and won't hurt you, you can lose your temper at us at will, or I will let you try The taste of the Cruciatus Curse."
The young couple shut up obediently when they saw that the man had raised his wand.
"What a bastard." The cloaked man sneered, put away his wand in disdain and said, "Let's go, they obviously don't need our help."
"If you don't need help." Fred paused, looked at the young couple, seemed to confirm the matter, shrugged and said, "Sorry to bother you, then we will rescue you immediately."
"Hurry up and leave the UK with your valuables, and come back after this war is over. Don't expect the Death Eaters to let you off mercifully, they are crazy now." Although Angelina hates the two, she still The last advice was given amidst the urging voices of others.
Under the resentful eyes of the young couple, the three turned around and prepared to leave without hesitation.
However, Kevin, who secretly picked up his wand, suddenly raised his wand and cast a curse at the three of them.
"I don't know if you all have **** in your head, and you still have fantasies about Death Eaters. It's really hopeless."
After knocking the opponent's wand away with the Disarming Charm, Fred looked at the young couple who had attacked them in disgust.
"Don't waste time, the Death Eaters will punish these two idiots instead of us."
"you…"
Looking at the backs of the three people leaving decisively, the young newspaper reporter couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. However, when he saw the three black wizards lying unconscious on the ground, he felt a deep uneasiness in his heart.
"What do we do now?"
The young woman looked at her husband in horror, but her husband didn't know what to do.
Are you really going to the Ministry of Magic to accept the so-called trial?
But he obviously didn't do anything!
And, will he really be imprisoned in Azkaban?
Kevin suddenly realized something.
They are actually right, do they really want to pin their hopes on the Death Eaters?
Are those evil guys really believable?
At this moment, the young wizard regretted it, but he had driven away those who could help him.
Anxiety, panic, uneasiness.
Many negative emotions surged up at once, and the young wizard almost collapsed. He hated the wizard war that had brought disaster to them, hated the Order of the Phoenix that suddenly appeared and disappeared just now.
As for the Death Eaters, they dare not.
"Are you really going to stop pulling them?"
Angelina's voice came from the darkness, and the three of them didn't actually go far, but went to join the three colleagues who were on guard around them.
In this critical moment, the Defense Association will naturally give priority to ensuring the safety of its own family.
"It's too late, and that kind of guy is not worth saving."
The sound of "cracking" sounded like firecrackers.
The black wizard Apparition came one after another, surrounded and violently broke into the house. This was undoubtedly a premeditated ambush.
The young couple were just the chosen bait of the unlucky ones. The target was actually the rescuers of the Defense Association and the Order of the Phoenix, but their target had already left a minute ago.
"They obviously learned the lesson from last time, and a dozen of them came at once. We are not their opponents." Fred did not forget to remind his girlfriend next to him not to do stupid things.
Although there were six of them on their side, and with the advantage of sneak attacks and props, they could indeed defeat the group of dark wizards, but Fred would not let his own people take risks.
God knows if this group of guys will still be a trap. If enemies continue to emerge during the period, they are probably really finished.
Fred does like excitement, but it doesn't mean he wants to die, especially the relationship with Angelina is rapidly heating up recently.
"It would be nice if there were mandrakes."
I don't know who mumbled something, but got the support of others.
Throwing Mandrakes into the crowd can probably kill the enemy in one go.
However, he doesn't have that thing now, and Albert doesn't like them using Mandrakes casually, because he is worried that the Death Eaters will start using that thing to deal with them, and the problem will become extremely troublesome at that time.
No one wants to be knocked down by the cries of the Mandrake one day, let alone lose their life because of it.
Maybe it was because they didn't catch anyone, the group of people who came in a hurry looked very irritable, and finally vented their anger on the begging young couple. After some cruel torture, Kevin The couple were dragged out of the house like dead dogs.
"Did we harm them?"
Looking at the young couple being taken away, Angelina muttered softly.
"No, they harmed themselves. If they are willing to leave with us, at least their lives will not be threatened, and they choose to pin their hopes on the Death Eaters, so naturally they need to pay the price."
Fred looked at the young couple dragged away by the Death Eaters, curled his lips in disdain.
Honestly, he never felt like a magnanimous person, especially after the other party tried to sneak up on them and trade them for forgiveness from the Death Eaters.
Guys like that die when they die.
He knew that the couple wasn't targeted because of them, and they weren't even peripheral members.
"There is no harm in letting them suffer a severe social beating. If there is no major problem, the mysterious people will not kill people at will. They should be able to live until the end of the war."
These are words used by Albert to comfort people, and they are indeed true.
The mysterious man will not slaughter those innocent wizards at will.
After all, there are only a few wizards in Britain, and even fewer Muggle wizards are deducted. Those people are the foundation of his rule of the British wizarding world.
"Let's go, I always feel that this place is not safe. They have obviously been eyeing us. Next time, it's best to bring more people, so as not to really capsize in the gutter."
Fred beckoned the others to leave,
They plan to go to the shelter first, which has really changed in recent days.
"It seems that they rejected you?" Mr. Tonks looked at the six people who came back, and he didn't seem too surprised.
"Yeah, I think we killed them and even attacked us, thanks to the defensive cloak." Fred took off his hood and sighed helplessly: "Maybe, Azkaban can calm down that poor couple. .”
"Not only you, but Cedric's team was also attacked, but they managed to get away." Tonks reminded, "According to Mr. Anderson's instructions, this is the case for the time being, and there is no need to continue taking risks. He'd have Lee Jordan on the radio and he'd be there to help people if they were going to leave the UK, or join us."
"Death Eaters are listening to our radio too?"
Actually, the Death Eaters had long wanted to join the Defense Association ranks, but they never had the chance.
Albert doesn't accept all rags, except for some more reliable ones, most of them are peripheral members.
Moreover, even if they can sneak in, they will be spotted soon, although they haven't succeeded so far.
"I dare say that other people are definitely happy for us to stop. They always feel that their suffering is caused by us, and they don't think about who the mysterious person is. They really read too many newspapers and their brains are fooled."
"They're just bullying."
Neville did not forget to thank the Weasley twins, and reminded them of Xenophilius Lovegood, hoping that they would remind each other to retreat as soon as possible.
"Isn't Lovegood going to hide?"
Fred was surprised. As a partner, he should be reminded immediately.
"have no idea."
"We have lost contact with him for a while, maybe Lovegood is hiding." Tonks is not too optimistic about this, too many things have happened in recent days.
"Where's Luna?" Qiu Zhang asked with a frown.
"Luna is temporarily hiding in the Room of Requirement, and she should be fine for the time being." Neville has been keeping in touch with Hogwarts.
Whenever there is trouble, just hide in the Room of Requirement, and the Death Eaters can only stare at the wall.
"Where's Albert?"
"He didn't reply, he seems to be busy with something in the last few days."
"Go and see the situation first, I hope it's not a trap."
Under the influence of Albert, the members of the Defense Association became cautious.
No way, after understanding the mystery of sneak attack, they don't want to be attacked by others more than anyone else.
After a brief discussion, everyone decided to act together to see what happened to Xenophilius Lovegood.
For this reason, they decided to call on the Order of the Phoenix.
As long as there are enough of them, there is no need to worry about the Death Eaters at all without facing the mysterious person.
This action took only ten minutes from formulation to execution, and the efficiency was unimaginably high. Even members of the Order of the Phoenix were very curious as to why they could act so efficiently.
"Because of this." Fred shook the toy-like watch and briefly introduced its functions to everyone. "This is the latest achievement. We will wear it during operations for emergency communication."
It didn't take them much time. After making sure that there was no danger, they broke into Lovegood's house under the cover of the Disillusionment Charm.
"There is no trace of battle, it should be withdrawn early."
After a cursory inspection of Lovegood's house, I finally came to this conclusion.
"No, actually I've been here all the time."
A voice suddenly sounded, startling everyone.
Everyone saw Xenophilius Lovegood appearing out of nowhere.
"You...where did you hide just now?"
"There is a secret room protected by the Fidelity Curse. Two days ago, several dark wizards ran nearby, so I temporarily hid." Lovegood explained to everyone.
"We thought..."
"If it weren't for Mr. Anderson's help, I would probably have to be imprisoned in Azkaban." Lovegood said suddenly, "They seem to have seen through our trick."
"Do you want to go to our place temporarily, I always feel that it is not very safe here."
"Oh, that's fine." Lovegood hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I'm just a little worried about Luna's safety."
"Don't worry, Luna is safe, you should be able to meet tomorrow."
