Chapter 777 The Forgotten Weasley

When he heard that Cedric was okay, Fred immediately laughed out loud, but soon he realized that this was the Ministry of Magic, and there were many people around him who were busy coming and going. On the lips.

However, Mr. Diggory didn't know what they were thinking, and asked curiously: "Speaking of the Weasley boys, didn't you two resign? Why are you here?"

"Ah, we heard that this place was attacked, so we came here to help." George said.

"That's right." Fred nodded.

For some reason, they didn't mention Cedric again, they just said they were here to help.

"Well, they are really a group of enthusiastic children." Mr. Digory smiled and nodded, "But let me tell you, you are really lucky."

"Yeah, that's right." Fred said with a smile, "If we hadn't resigned, we might have been sent to St. Mungo's by now."

"It's not possible, it's definitely... maybe it will be worse." Mr. Diggory shook his head, and his expression became much more serious. "I heard that the Death Eaters made a special trip after they came out of the minister's office. Department of Prohibition of Misuse of Muggle Items.

"My guess is that Arthur has repeatedly opposed the Death Eaters, and they want to take revenge."

"Yes, dad has indeed been fighting against the Death Eaters." Fred said with a smile, looking like he didn't care at all.

As members of the Order of the Phoenix, it was normal for them to be deliberately targeted by Death Eaters, and there was nothing surprising about it. Otherwise, their family would not have moved from the Burrow to No. 12 Grimmauld Place.

"How's old Perkins?"

"Not good." Mr. Digory shook his head with a heavy face. "As far as I know, he met the Death Eaters in the elevator and was tortured by them with the Cruciatus Curse. But luckily , he saved his life.”

"Yes." George sighed a little, "I remember that he always wanted to retire early... Now he should be able to do so."

Several people continued walking upstairs.

After learning that Cedric was fine, they were not so anxious and began to help the injured people on different floors, while also asking about what happened here.

Judging from everyone's descriptions, the Death Eaters did not leave directly after killing Fudge, but relied on the large number of people to find those who opposed them one by one.

Later, Amelia Bones, Scrimgeour and others arrived in time with Aurors and strikers, and the two sides had a great battle here.

As for the outcome of this battle... Although the Aurors succeeded in driving away the Death Eaters, the Ministry of Magic lost from the beginning, and lost completely.

At this time, there were many Ministry of Magic employees upstairs who were affected. Most of them were old employees engaged in clerical work. Because they had not participated in a battle for a long time, they were immediately stunned when encountering such an unexpected situation. .

Some people didn't even take out their wands before being knocked down by the Death Eaters.

As soon as Kyle turned a corner, he saw a wizard unconscious in the ruins.

He had the impression that this person had been checking visitors' wands in the hall before, but he didn't know why he appeared here. Maybe there was something going on, or he might have escaped here in the chaos.

With a wave of his wand, Kyle transformed a battered door into a stretcher, then turned several rocks into little people with legs.

The stone man threw the man roughly onto the stretcher, carried him and ran downstairs.

"Hey, this is a really good move." Fred said from the side, and followed the same example to help other wounded people.

But when he was busy working, he always felt as if he had forgotten something, and the same was true for George next to him.

They subconsciously think they should go somewhere and do something, but they can't tell where they are going.

However, the two of them didn't pay attention and continued to devote themselves to the rescue work.

If you can't remember it, it certainly doesn't matter.

During this period, they also met Amelia Bones, the director of the Legal Enforcement Department who was leading a team of thugs to direct the follow-up work in an orderly manner.

She also expressed her gratitude to people like Fred and George who had resigned but came forward to help.

"Mad, take a few people to the third floor. The Muggle Mediation Committee office has almost been demolished."

"There is also the sixth floor. Barty is injured. He alone cannot restart the floo network before dawn."

"Scrimgeour, please, please and the Aurors guard each entrance to guard against Death Eaters returning."

She arranged the work quickly and efficiently, and every order was quickly carried out. No one disagreed, even Scrimgeour led the Aurors to the hall without saying a word.

"It looks like she will be the next Minister of Magic."

After Amelia Bones left, Fred suddenly whispered: "I remember Dad said that the director of the Auror Office cannot be commanded by just a division chief."

"I think so too." Kyle nodded.

During her tenure as the Director of the Legal Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic, Amelia Bones always gave people the impression of being fair and rigorous, and she never made any mistakes. Almost everyone spoke highly of her.

Including when Sirius was retried, Amelia was the first person to advocate his innocence.

Also, the last time Kyle came to the Ministry of Magic for interrogation, the other party also argued with Fudge, and after the result came out, he offered to help Kyle contact the Wizengamot.

So Kyle's impression of her has always been very good.

And more importantly, Amelia Bones insisted on opposing Voldemort from beginning to end. Even though she was almost killed by Death Eaters, this never changed.

Someone who has the ability, responsibility, and a stand... Such a person is indeed the most suitable person to become the new Minister of Magic.

"What a shame." George sighed suddenly. "I thought you were going to be the Minister of Magic."

"Who, me?" Kyle pointed to himself.

"Otherwise." Fred said with a smile, "It can't be me. Of course, I don't have an opinion myself, but I'm afraid that other people won't agree."

"Don't worry, I will definitely be the first to object." George said.

"What are you thinking about?" Kyle curled his lips and calmly put a broken window back together and put it back to its original position. "Let's put it this way, unless everyone is crazy, they will let a wizard who just graduated from Hogwarts be the Minister of Magic during the war.

"If someone really proposed this idea, even Dumbledore would be suspected of being under the Imperius Curse of a mysterious man."

"That's why I say it's a pity." George whispered: "Eighteen-year-old Minister of Magic, if you succeed, you will become a legend."

"Maybe it's a joke." Kyle glanced at him, "Besides, I just graduated and I don't want to enter another bigger and busier 'castle' so soon."

"Is this why you haven't come to work?" Fred couldn't help but laugh: "I must remind you that Ms. Bones just said that she would deduct half a month's salary from you."

"It doesn't matter, it makes sense." Kyle also laughed.

He has never been to the Ministry of Magic since he entered seventh grade, but his monthly salary is not less than a knut. It can be said that he did not do any work, but received eighteen hundred in vain. Galleons.

The result was that when they met Amelia Bones just now, both Fred and George were thanked by each other, but only he was reprimanded for being absent from work for a long time, and at the same time, half a month's salary was deducted.

However, Kyle felt that Amelia Bones meant that she wanted him to come back to work at the Ministry of Magic as soon as possible.

I haven't worked at the Ministry of Magic for more than a year, but only seventy-five galleons were deducted. This kind of punishment does not seem serious, but more like a reminder.

However, Kyle has not yet decided whether to return here... Mainly because working in the Ministry of Magic is too restrictive, and he is more comfortable with the Order of the Phoenix. Anyway, he is dealing with Death Eaters. Isn't it the same everywhere? No difference.

…

After some time, the Ministry of Magic's aftermath work was basically coming to an end, and Cedric finally came back. He was dirty and looked dusty, but he was very energetic.

"I heard what Mr. Digory said." George stepped forward and hugged him, "You are really lucky."

"Yeah, I think so too," Cedric said, "But why are you still here?"

"Aren't your words too hurtful?" Fred glared at him dissatisfied: "We have been worried about you."

"That's right." George also echoed from the side: "After we heard that the Ministry of Magic was attacked, we came here specially to confirm your safety. Now you actually want to drive us away?"

"No, that's not what I meant." Cedric shook his head quickly, "I just met Mr. Weasley at St. Mungo's, so I thought you guys should have passed by too."

"Dad? What happened to him?" Fred was startled and asked immediately.

"Mr. Weasley is very good." Cedric said, "I'm talking about Percy. He was controlled by the Death Eaters with the Imperius Curse before, and then he was hit by the Cruciatus Curse during the battle. He belongs to the third category. A group of people sent to St. Mungo's.

"So compared to me, I think you want to visit your brother more, don't you?"

Fred and George fell silent immediately, looking at each other with their mouths open.

They now finally knew what they had forgotten... They had forgotten that Percy also worked at the Ministry of Magic, and that he worked on the same floor as the Minister's office.

"Um...Fred." George turned his head stiffly, "If we say we are helping out at the Ministry of Magic, is it possible that mother will forgive us?"

"I think...she would be merciful enough to leave an ear for each of us." Fred swallowed and said with difficulty.

"What are you waiting for!"

"damn it!"

Then, regardless of their deep friendship, they pushed Cedric out of the way and ran outside quickly.

"So...they forgot about Percy, right?" Cedric asked softly.

"I guess so," Kyle said.

Not only Fred and George, but he also forgot about Percy just now.

Originally, this wasn't a big deal. Ever since Percy graduated, his presence has become weaker and weaker. Sometimes Kyle subconsciously forgets that there is such a person in the Weasley family.

But the key issue now is that Percy is injured, and from Cedric's tone, it seems to be quite serious.

No wonder they saw Sirius, Tonks, and Kingsley just now, but didn't see Mr. Weasley, Bill, and Charlie... It's obvious that they must have asked about Percy's situation as soon as possible, and then rushed to St. Mungo's.

But Fred and George didn't realize this from beginning to end.

If Mrs. Weasley knew that they had abandoned their own brother, it would be a light punishment to twist their ears off, and it would not be impossible to add two more beds in St. Mungo's.

"Bless them... I hope they are okay." Kyle said sincerely.

Cedric next to him also nodded with a heavy face.

They were worried about their own safety just now, and sending them blessings at this time was also a courtesy.

I hope Mrs. Weasley will show mercy and let them see each other alive... Well, I hope so.

"Where are you going next?" Cedric asked.

"I think we will go to St. Mungo's." Kyle said.

Although his relationship with Percy was not particularly good before, it was still good. In addition to the relationship with the Weasley family, he had to visit him anyway.

"What about you, are you still helping here?"

"No, I may have to go to another place." Cedric said.

"Where?"

"It seems to be a square, but I don't remember." Cedric took out a note, "Oh, right, No. 12 Grimmauld Place."

Kyle looked at him and the note in his hand in surprise.

"Who gave this to you?"

"Professor Dumbledore." Cedric said casually, "Why, didn't you see him?"

"No." Kyle shook his head, "Where did you meet him?"

"It's at the entrance of the Ministry of Magic. After we chatted for a few words, he gave me this and asked me to go there if I have time..." As he was talking, Cedric suddenly stretched out his hand, "Look, isn't he there?"

Kyle raised his head and looked in the direction of his finger. Sure enough, he saw Dumbledore standing with Amelia Bones and talking seriously.

But... he didn't look very good, his face was haggard, and his right hand seemed to be injured, hanging down a little weakly.

Kyle frowned. It seemed that Voldemort's appearance in Austria was not to deliberately lure Dumbledore away. He was really there.

After all, apart from Voldemort, Kyle couldn't think of anyone else who could hurt Dumbledore.

Oh, there was another one, the one trapped in the tower of Nurmengard, but he was unlikely.

Dumbledore seemed to have noticed Kyle's gaze, and he also looked over, but not only did he not say anything, but he went somewhere else with Amelia Bones.

But Kyle didn't think too much, just thought they had something serious to do... Being able to write the address of No. 12 Grimmauld Place on the note was enough to prove that Dumbledore couldn't be someone else's fake.

"Wait, why is the word on it gone!"

At this time, Cedric suddenly exclaimed, and the note that was originally written with words had turned into a blank piece of paper without knowing when.

"It's okay, don't worry about it, just remember the location." Kyle smiled and patted his shoulder.

"It seems like you know." Cedric looked at Kyle and asked with some confusion. "So what exactly is that place?"

"I can't say too much." Kyle thought for a while, "Remember the DA you held in Hogwarts before?"

"Of course." Cedric nodded, "Does it matter?"

At that time, he worked hard to teach other students, almost spending all his spare time. It was also the most memorable experience besides the Quidditch game, and of course he couldn't forget it.

"In short, it is equivalent to a more formal DA, but it has another name, called the Order of the Phoenix."

"Order of the Phoenix?"

"Don't be so loud." Kyle lowered his voice and said, "Anyway, you should go to St. Mungo's with me now, and someone will take you there naturally."

"But I just came back from St. Mungo's." Cedric looked a little hesitant. He felt that more people were needed here, otherwise he wouldn't rush back so hurriedly.

"There are so many people here, we don't need you." Kyle pushed him, "Also, if you want to go to the place on the note, you have to come with me. Almost everyone there is in St. Mungo's now."

"Well... well then." Cedric sighed helplessly.
