Fred, George, and Lee Jordan were all stunned, obviously not thinking that Sirius would send them a message at this time, and he still invited them to "dine".

Of course, the so-called dinner was just an excuse. Sirius obviously had something to discuss with them, or to Albert.

Other than that, they can't think of other possibilities.

After a brief silence in the restaurant, George was the first to break the silence and complained, "He should have said it earlier, we are almost full."

"I think Sirius should want to talk about cooperation by the way."

"Why don't you guys go later?" Lee Jordan continued, "By the way, can Professor Lupin work overtime recently?"

"Okay, but you'd better not get your hopes up."

George and Fred quickly finished their dinner and left in a hurry.

"Are you so busy every day?"

"Yeah, I really owe you to help, otherwise I'd have to be even more busy." Lee Jordan looked at the back of the two leaving, and sighed: "However, I did earn a lot of Galleons. In the past few years, Just stick to it for a while, and you won’t have to worry about Garen in the future, so you don’t have to care about Albert giving you a high salary, you deserve it.”

When Fred and George hurried to 12 Grimmauld Place, they found that the invitation to dinner at home was just an excuse.

Sirius, Lupin, Mad-Eye Moody, Kingsley, and Professor McGonagall all looked very serious, as if something bad had happened.

"What's wrong?" George asked.

"Can you contact Albert?" Professor McGonagall asked immediately.

"I'm afraid it's difficult. Albert just got married, and he definitely doesn't want anyone to disturb his post-marriage trip." George was not too surprised by this, and asked directly: "Do you have anything to do with Albert?"

There was a brief silence in the dining room, making both Fred and George a little curious about what they were looking for with Albert.

"About Dumbledore," said Professor McGonagall.

"What's wrong with Dumbledore?" Fred frowned, thinking he might have guessed why.

"Dumbledore is injured. The last time I saw him, I found that his left palm seemed to be scorched by flames." Professor McGonagall's voice was full of unease, "I feel that it is very serious. The wounds were dry and charred, like death."

"What kind of magic do you think does that damage?" Mad-Eye Moody asked, frowning.

"No, that's not the point of Moody." Professor McGonagall said irritably. "Do you remember Albert's prophecy? The prediction that the Ministry of Magic will fall in the future."

"The current Ministry of Magic doesn't look like it could collapse at any time." Kingsley shook his head. He knew the situation of the Ministry of Magic very well. Although Scrimgeour's approach was a bit messy, the Ministry of Magic was indeed much better than before, and everyone was more Unite, Scrimgeour showed them confidence.

"There is only one possibility that could lead to the downfall of the Ministry of Magic."

In fact, several people present knew exactly what Professor McGonagall said was possible.

Dumbledore is dead.

Only when Dumbledore was dead could Voldemort kill Scrimgeour with impunity and take over the Ministry of Magic directly.

The living room fell silent again.

Fred and George exchanged glances, apparently not expecting to be called to discuss the matter.

In fact, they have also guessed what Professor McGonagall said, because Albert once said that the magic world will be more chaotic in the future, and Muggle wizards will be in big trouble.

"But...why did Dumbledore hide this?" Lupin asked, puzzled.

"Maybe he thinks we don't need to know?" Sirius curled his lips. "Harry told me that Dumbledore would give him a class this year."

"So, you think Dumbledore is dying and decides to tell Harry?" Moody also felt that the possibility was high.

Dumbledore had hinted to them more than once that Harry was important.

In fact, as early as when Albert predicted that the Ministry of Magic would collapse, there were such doubts and speculations. It's just that the probability of the prophecy coming true is really low. Even if the person who made the prophecy is Albert, everyone is at most dubious.

After all, no one wants to believe that Dumbledore is going to die. What's more, Albert did not directly predict that Dumbledore would die, it was their own guess.

However, the fact that Dumbledore was suspected of being caught in black magic completely aroused everyone's unease, so they tried to figure it out through Albert.

"I'm sure Anderson knows something," Professor McGonagall said firmly. "I saw them going out together on the wedding day, and I don't know what to talk about."

"Cough!" George coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention.

"Did you find something?" Sirius looked at George expectantly.

"I think you'd better not pin your hopes on Albert." George reminded helplessly, "If Dumbledore doesn't want to say it, Albert probably won't tell us."

"Yes." Fred nodded in agreement: "Maybe, Albert knows a lot of things, but he rarely tells others, probably because he doesn't think it is necessary to let too many people know, or that it is not suitable for others to know now. ."

Fred and George had been with Albert for seven years, and he knew each other's character very well. He felt that even if Professor McGonagall really asked Albert for divination, that guy would probably let her ask Dumbledore herself.

"You think he won't tell us?" Lupin raised an eyebrow.

"If Albert is unwilling to give us a divination, the result will not be very good." Sirius speculated that he knew Albert better, "One more thing, if Dumbledore is really killed, I am very sorry. Suspect it will be Snape."

"Sirius."

Everyone frowned, and it was not the first time Sirius had targeted Snape.

"You can ask them if you don't believe me." Sirius pointed to Fred and George, "Don't forget, Hogwarts professor, it's very strange that Snape didn't receive the invitation, don't tell me. Because of their bad relationship, Albert didn't invite Snape to the wedding."

"I don't think Albert is that kind of person. There must be some reason for Albert to think that Snape is untrustworthy." Sirius's targeting of Snape is not all because of the contradiction between the two sides, but Snape himself It was very suspicious, and he never forgot that one of the reasons why Albert was reluctant to join the Order of the Phoenix was that there might be traitors in the Order of the Phoenix. "

"Dumbledore swore that Snape was on our side." Professor McGonagall frowned. "He was sure that Snape's confession was absolutely heartfelt... He also said he didn't want to hear a word about Snape. bad words!"

"I dare say Albert already knew that Snape was a double agent." Sirius tapped his fingers on the table, "and he obviously felt that Snape was untrustworthy..."

"Yes, Albert doesn't trust Snape." George agreed with Sirius. "I once asked Albert why he didn't want to join the Order of the Phoenix, and he said that the Order of the Phoenix was unreliable and full of loopholes."

"It's useless for us to guess here." Moody didn't really trust Snape. "The best way is to talk to Dumbledore directly, but I think the possibility of him telling us is not high, then find Ai Burt's prediction is the best option right now."

Although Moody doesn't believe much in divination, it turns out that Albert's authority in the field of prophecy, as Sirius said, no matter what the outcome is, it's always good for Albert to make a prediction.

"What if our guess is true?" Lupin asked suddenly.

There was an eerie silence in the living room again.

Everyone just wants to know the truth, but no one thinks about the outcome.

Even if Dumbledore was indeed likely to die in the near future, what could they do?

There is nothing they can do!

I can only pray in my heart that this doesn't happen.

"Sure enough, you should still talk to that guy. I know you must have a way to get in touch with that guy, right!" Sirius looked at Fred and George, he was sure that Albert's character would definitely stay urgent method of contact.

Fred and George looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "It's useless, and your timing is bad."

"You should know how important this matter is." Professor McGonagall stared sternly at Fred and George.

Being stared at by a group of people, Fred and George were under a lot of pressure and finally reluctantly compromised.

"Okay, let's go back and get it, but we can't guarantee whether we can contact Albert, and we still insist on our own views, even if he really knows something, he won't tell us."

After that, Fred and George left in a hurry.

After a while, they brought a small mirror.

"This…"

Sirius was very surprised when he looked at the small mirror in his hand. He also had a double-sided mirror, but it was completely different from the thing in front of him.

In fact, if Fred hadn't said it was a double-sided mirror, no one would have recognized it as a double-sided mirror.

"It was made by Albert." George explained: "We originally planned to sell it as a couple's mirror for couples to communicate with each other, but it was a bit difficult to make. Only Albert can make this thing, and that guy is lazy now... This project can only be put on hold for now.”

Sirius did not try to use the double-sided mirror, but gave the double-sided mirror to Professor McGonagall. Probably only Professor McGonagall contacted the other party at this point in time without bad luck.

"How does this thing work?" Professor McGonagall looked curiously at the mirror in his hand.

"Just call the other party's name directly. If he hears it, he will respond to you." George briefly explained the usage, "However, I suggest that you don't have too high expectations."

It turned out that Fred and George were right, and Professor McGonagall shouted at the double-sided mirror for five minutes, but the mirror did not respond.

"This thing can't be fake!" Moody cast a suspicious look at the Weasley twins.

"It's impossible. We tested it when we first got it." Fred took back the double-sided mirror and suggested, "If you are looking for him, I suggest waiting for his post-wedding trip to finish."

"I think it's useless for you to find him now. If Albert really thinks Dumbledore will be in big trouble, he will definitely remind Dumbledore in advance. After all, their relationship has always been very good, Albert. I definitely won't watch Dumbledore get into big trouble, or even lose his life." Before Fred and George actually came, they had already contacted Albert through the double-sided mirror, or the house elf, in advance. said this.

The response they got was not what they expected, and Albert asked them to ask Dumbledore themselves.

Neither of them are fools. Albert's meaning is already obvious. The speculation that Dumbledore is likely to die should be true, but for some reason, Albert didn't tell them directly.

The two ultimately did not tell the other members of the Order of the Phoenix about it, because it would not help.

They suddenly understood why Albert didn't want to talk about it, and let them ask Dumbledore themselves.

"This matter is kept secret for the time being, and don't let others know."

"Especially Snape," Sirius reminded. "If he really told Voldemort about it, maybe..."

"I think what Sirius said is very reasonable. Although Dumbledore thinks Snape is trustworthy, everyone has time to look at him." Mad-Eye Moody echoed.

Professor McGonagall hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, "I will ask Dumbledore myself about this."

"You better not talk nonsense," Kingsley said to Fred and George.

"Don't worry about that, we know what to do."

…

"What do you want to ask, just say it!"

After Albert handed the double-sided mirror to the house elf, he turned to meet Isobel's gaze.

"You don't want them to know?"

"Even if you know, it won't solve the problem."

Looking at the endless sea, Albert said calmly: "Also, I believe Dumbledore also has his own plans, and we'd better not disrupt his plans."

"I think it's more of an excuse for wanting to be lazy." Isobel pinched Albert's cheek and said, "Just throw the problem at Dumbledore."

"That's not the question I should answer." Albert shook his head. "Otherwise, how do you want me to tell them that Dumbledore will die next year and that Snape killed him?"

"Snape killed Dumbledore?" Isobel was taken aback.

"Yeah, Snape did it!"

"You told Dumbledore about it."

"said."

"What did he say?" Isobel asked curiously.

"He believed in Snape."

"He believed in Snape?" Isobel couldn't believe it.

"Snape was actually a double agent, both Dumbledore and Voldemort thought Snape was theirs."

"Where is Snape from over there?" Isobel asked curiously.

"Is it important?" Albert asked back, "Even if he is really Dumbledore's, who knows if he will choose to sacrifice others to protect himself at a critical moment?"
