Chapter 1165: win-win

An hour ago.

In a remote and uninhabited village in Devon, Sirius and Lupin are on a surveillance mission, because soon, a decoy named "Kenneth" will come to the village, and the prophecy Master "Anderson" contacts.

Of course, these two guys were actually fakes, and there wasn't even a man who looked like Albert Anderson in that house.

But none of that mattered, as long as the Death Eaters and the Ministry of Magic believed that Albert Anderson was hiding here.

Who made the group of Death Eaters who wanted Albert to die, so far they haven't been able to find any clues about him.

Kenneth, who was responsible for "delivery" to Joko, must know something. Even if the person caught this time is not Albert, he must be someone closely related to him. As long as he controls them, he wants to find Albert. It is by no means difficult.

Since the Ministry of Magic can use Veritaserum, so can the Death Eaters, and they can use more brutal torture methods.

Therefore, Sirius was not at all worried that the Death Eaters would not bite the lure, not to mention that according to the information provided by the snot, after Lucius Malfoy spent a lot of Galleons to send himself to Azkaban prison, he received The Death Eater tasked with murdering Albert Anderson was Bellatrix Lestrange, the mad woman.

Many times, Sirius would not compliment his cousin Bellatrix's bad taste. After all, Voldemort's appearance is really... very unique, just saying that he has no nose... Sirius is actually more curious, and worshipped so much back then Why didn't Voldemort's Bella consider marrying Voldemort directly?

It's a joke, but Sirius really can't understand the crazy woman's madness for Voldemort. Is it like the kind of star chasing that everyone loves singer Sedina Warbeck?

It's really incomprehensible.

Putting away the chaotic thoughts in his head, Sirius turned his gaze to the chessboard in front of him, and then looked up at the moon face whose cheeks were already wrinkled.

"I should give this surveillance mission to Tonks." Sirius laughed and joked. He had indeed considered doing so, but Tonks, who is an Auror, also has his own job. It's a pity to miss this time. A chance to be alone with Lupin.

"Stop joking, it's not funny at all." Lupin didn't like this joke very much, and talking about Tonks always made him feel numb.

"How is your relationship?" Sirius asked.

"Old." Lupin didn't like the subject very much.

"Didn't you find time to go out on a date with her?" Sirius raised his eyebrows slightly, he hoped that his old friend could find his happiness.

"I think you should also think about your own problems first." Lupin changed the subject.

"my question?"

"You are a year older than me." After Lupin dropped the chess piece in his hand, his eyes swept over the large looking glass, and then his eyes fell on the demon mirror placed by the wall, still no response. He got up and went to the window, surreptitiously observing the situation outside with the help of the half-closed curtain.

"Is there a situation?" Sirius asked.

"No." Lupin shook his head.

"Then sit down and finish the game, it's your turn again." Sirius was about to use his knights to corner Lupin's king.

"I thought before that..."

"I don't think about marriage." Sirius interrupted indifferently, "It's better, let the Black family end like this in my generation, anyway, I never considered inheriting this nasty family."

Listening to Bigfoot's words, Lupin fell silent.

"You really intend to..."

"Yes." Sirius glanced at the Marauder's map in his hand, and said impatiently, "I think you should face your feelings bravely more than mine. Tonks is a good girl, don't fail her."

"There's no chance of us having a result," Lupin said stiffly. "I don't want to delay her, and I'm more concerned about it now..."

"You've delayed her."

Sirius glanced at the king who was about to be checkmate on the chessboard, and said to Lupin, who was standing by the window, looking at him, "Also, I think your worries are completely superfluous, you must wait for Kenneth to come over, the group The guy will follow him to find it here, and I suspect that the follower is likely to be a pathfinder who doesn't know anything. After all, after being tricked once, everyone will become smarter."

"Makes sense."

Lupin used binoculars to observe the vicinity of "Albert"'s home, trying to find suspicious persons, and soon his eyes turned to the safe house of the Ministry of Magic. The case of Burns reminded everyone that cooperation can reduce the risk of suffering. to the risk of a sneak attack.

"Escape is never a good option." Sirius tapped his fingers on the chessboard, "Don't think you can do it this way..."

"You won," Lupin said directly.

"I originally won, and it's not a good idea for you to feel sorry for yourself like this." Sirius paused, as if he felt something, stretched out his hand and took out a communication pen from his pocket. After unfolding it, he found that there was gold on it. Sly's message.

"What's new?" Lupin asked.

"'Kenneth' has just left the safe house that the Ministry of Magic has arranged for him. Kingsley suspects that there are Death Eaters inside the Ministry of Magic, but they have never found a suspect. I say just use Veritaseum for everyone. Just delete the agent and select the spy." Sirius briefly said the information from Kingsley, "By the way, Arthur will come over later, they think the Death Eaters will take action tonight, and they should come over early to step on the spot. ."

"Tonight? The information from that person, or..." Lupin put down his telescope, turned his head and said, "This whole thing is weird from beginning to end."

"It's weird, no, I think it's normal. Isn't that what Anderson is like, and many of his tricks can't be understood by others." Sirius didn't think there was any problem, "That guy's tricks are really hard to guard against. , sometimes I think we're lucky, Albert is on our side, so now it's the Death Eaters who are unlucky, not us."

"That's a very nice and responsible man, I think he would do that more because the You-Know-Who and the Death Eaters are pushing too hard." Lupin leaned towards Albert, "If someone does that , I think I'd go crazy and kill them all."

At this moment, a green flame suddenly burst into the fireplace in the living room, and a figure came out of the flame. He smiled and greeted the two who were chatting.

"how is the situation?"

"It's calm, how's it going over there?" Lupin asked.

"'Kenneth' should be on his way here, but we still haven't found anyone watching him." Arthur came to the window and quietly looked out through the gap in the curtains, "The Aurors are very uncomfortable with this operation. Look good, they think it might be a waste of time this time."

"After all, Mr. Tolle has already done the bait once, as long as it's not too stupid, he won't be easily fooled." Lupin said the rest for Arthur.

"I think they only said that when they saw that no one was caught." Sirius said contemptuously, "It is estimated that these few months have gone too smoothly, making them stupid. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com "

"Alas, people are forgetful." Arthur sighed helplessly, "The smooth sailing does make some people temporarily forget the threat posed by the mysterious person."

"Don't worry, since Albert wanted to use the Ministry of Magic to take revenge on Bellatrix, it was also predicted." Sirius was not worried that the plan would fail. He knew Albert better than the Ministry of Magic.

"Scrimgeour and we are both willing to believe in Albert, not because his predictions have come true almost 100%." ​​Sirius noticed the gazes from the two and explained, "As smart as Albert Man, he will not destroy the absolute confidence of the Ministry of Magic and us in him with a plan that will fail, otherwise it will not be so easy for him to use the Ministry of Magic and us to take revenge on the Death Eaters in the future."

"Cough, I think this should be called mutual benefit and win-win cooperation." Lupin corrected, he is not worried now, because Sirius is so reasonable.

"Remus is right, it should be called cooperation and win-win." Arthur agreed with Lupin's words, and it was true.
