Chapter 389: Pig's Head Bar

The magic world is like this. When owls start flying in groups, something big is bound to happen.

That evening, taking advantage of the afterglow before sunset.

The Three Broomsticks and even the Hog's Head Inn have all had their own highlights.

Dozens of wizards and witches came to Hogsmeade with their families, a gathering place for wizards.

"It's crazy. I've never seen such a thing..." Aberforth stood at the door of the Hog's Head Inn, complaining non-stop.

He opened a bar just for fun. As for making money? The treasury of the Dumbledore family can completely provide food and clothing.

So, today's hot business made him a little annoyed, especially when some people came who looked cunning, just like the one in front of him.

"Sir! I declare again that I only request an ordinary guest room. And I don't live here myself, only my wife lives here."

Lucius stood at the door of the Hog's Head Inn with a tired face. Although he was tired, he held his wife Narcissa's hand tightly.

As one of the 28 sacred families, Hogsmeade must have Malfoy's property, but at this point in time, he really doesn't feel comfortable with his wife living alone.

Yes, living alone.

Before everything is settled, Lucius doesn't plan to do anything out of line or against his status, but he must make corresponding arrangements for the safety of his family.

The Hog's Head is a good choice.

With Dumbledore's brother in charge, ordinary dark wizards dare not act rashly. In fact, as a nearly transparent black market in Hogsmeade, the Hog's Head has not had any incidents for so many years, which actually explains the problem.

After Lucius explained, Aberforth's eyes softened a little.

He doesn't like treacherous and smooth people, and he doesn't like people who bring trouble, but the sincere feelings between the other party and his wife can't be deceived.

"A small house with a separate bathroom, 4 Sickles a day!"

Aberforth compromised, and after saying this, he turned and walked to the dirty bar, opened the drawer and fumbled for a while, as if looking for a key.

On the other side, Lucius also breathed a sigh of relief, but Narcissa said with some sadness:

"Dear, why do we have to do this? You know what I want to say!"

The strength from the palm made Lucius feel his wife's nervousness.

"It doesn't have to be like this, it has to be like this! Fifteen years ago, I thought everything was stable, but there was a reversal..."

Lucius stopped talking halfway, and he also saw that Aberforth had found the room key in the bar and was looking at this side from a distance.

"Be obedient! You stay here first, and we will go home at Christmas!"

Lucius instructed calmly, but the word "go home" made Narcissa's palm, which was about to loosen, more force.

...

Life, separation and reunion seem to be normal.

When Lucius and his wife parted in Hogsmeade, the so-called power holders in the Ministry of Magic in London gathered together again.

But the difference is that although there were quarrels, they were also active, and now the atmosphere is dead silent.

"You all know the situation, so don't play dumb here."

In the office, Fudge's attitude became tough as usual.

However, if you look closely, you will find that this seemingly tough attitude is completely cowardly.

But no one cares about these things now. The most powerful people in the Ministry of Magic in England are all worried at the moment.

If Diagon Alley had not been attacked, they would have been kept in the dark.

There are two thousand werewolves hiding in London alone, and God knows how many there are in the whole of England...

"The herbs cannot be cut off. We even need to take the initiative to prepare them and let them grab them..."

The Director of the Department of Magic and Sports, Bagman, broke the dead silence.

When the nest is overturned, no eggs will be left intact. Bagman is very clear about this truth. Just like Fudge said, it is no longer playing dumb now. If it is not good, it will be a disaster that sweeps the entire wizarding world.

As Bagman's voice fell, this seemingly unreliable rhetoric also attracted many people to nod in agreement silently.

On the night of the full moon, there are at least 13 times a year, based on the 27.3-day cycle of the moon.

If there is no sufficient wolf poison potion, once the werewolves hidden in the Muggle world lose their minds and transform, the entire confidentiality law can be said to be meaningless.

At that time, wizards will also appear in public in front of Muggles.

This is also the reason why many people still recognize it even though they know that providing herbs will continue to increase the number of werewolves.

It is better to delay slowly than to die all at once.

This is a solution that is not a solution, and it is the only solution at present.

No one objects to Bagman's proposal, even Amelia, who has always been strong.

There are many werewolves, and it sounds a bit scary, but the Law Enforcement Department is not a vegetarian.

She knows very well that the root cause of this matter is Voldemort. Once this delicate balance is broken, even if there are twice as many werewolves, it is not a big deal.

After all, more than 99% of those werewolves are transformed from Muggles. Even if they are strong, they are limited in strength, and they are not even as strong as adult mountain monsters.

The strikers and Aurors came out in full force, and it would take some time to resolve the situation.

Although the current situation is tricky, it is still under control. The only thing that makes her confused is Dumbledore.

This legendary white wizard is currently like selective blindness. Not only has he not taken any action, he has not even taken the initiative to contact the Ministry of Magic.

In fact, it was not only Amelia who was puzzled, but Dumbledore's actions also made many people puzzled.

It was because of this that the magic world maintained a delicate balance.

Perhaps, it was under this balance that Bagman's proposal was agreed by many people.

...

During the discussion and doubts in the Ministry of Magic, as the hidden protagonist, Dumbledore was also caught in a dilemma.

On one side were the Muggles who were being transformed every moment, and on the other side was Harry who was in urgent need of time.

Although most of these Muggles were homeless drug addicts, life was life.

The value of life can never be measured by quantity and quality.

Giving up Harry or ignoring Muggles, these two points Dumbledore could not do.

"Sever, is it true that the potion cannot be improved?"

In the principal's office, Dumbledore asked calmly.

The only way before him now was to let Harry get rid of the Horcrux as soon as possible, only in this way could all the problems be solved.

However, what responded to him was Snape's empty and indifferent eyes.

"Unless you want him to die!"

Snape's tone and demeanor were extremely cold, as if he would not be moved even if Harry died now.

But Dumbledore knew that Snape in this state was a manifestation of anger.

"Sorry, Sever! But you know, the current situation..."

"If that's all, I still have things to do!"

Snape interrupted Dumbledore, stood up and walked out the door without looking back.

Muggles had nothing to do with him, not to mention his childhood in Spinner's End, which made him clearly know how bad these homeless drug addicts were in their bones.

Looking at Snape's back, Dumbledore moved his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

But until the other party completely walked out of the principal's office, he didn't say what he wanted to say.
