Chapter 286 I Was Really Too Smart To Seal This Fireplace
"What's going on?" Aunt Petunia asked out of breath, stepping back to Vernon, staring in horror at the fake charcoal stove.

"Hmph! A bunch of impolite wizards!" Vernon was as angry as a wolverine whose territory had been violated, because several voices came from behind the fireplace.

"Ouch! No, Fred—go back, go back, I must have made a mistake—tell George not to—Ouch! No, George, it's full, go back and tell Ron—"

"Can the Floo network still turn back?" A strange thought flashed through Harry's mind.

"The location should be correct. They should have sealed the fireplace. Let's shout a few words. Maybe Harry can hear us, maybe he can let us out..."

boom--

Ron's muffled voice was interrupted by a muffled sound.

But behind the fireplace they also started pounding on the wall: "Harry? Harry, can you hear me?"

Avoiding the burning stares of the Dursleys, Harry came to the fireplace and explained the situation to the Weasleys.

"Back off, you all back off." Mr. Weasley made a quick decision.

"Wait!" Uncle Vernon rushed to the fireplace and shouted, "What are you trying to do..."

boom!
The fireplace sealed by Uncle Vernon exploded suddenly, and the electric stove in front flew to the other side of the room. Amidst Aunt Petunia's screams, Mr. Weasley, Fred, George and Ron was thrown out, and at the same time, a large pile of rubble and wall skin flew out.Uncle Vernon put his arms around Aunt Petunia, gasping for breath. He felt his blood pressure had hit a record high: repair costs, cleaning costs, and the house insurance premiums that were bound to rise next year...

He just thought about the repair of the house and felt that he couldn't breathe. You know, there is an upper limit on the compensation amount of housing insurance. The entire wall here is almost destroyed. Basically, don't expect the insurance to pay. Full compensation, and there is still a problem, that is how to explain it yourself!

Not to mention the huge expense, those are things for later, how can I explain it to the insurance company?Gas explosion?
Uncle Vernon was devastated.The anger in his heart overwhelmed his fear of wizards, and now he just wanted to pick up the broom and give Harry a meal of "fried pork with bamboo shoots". There was a trace of remorse in his heart: he shouldn't have sealed the fireplace.

Mr. Weasley stood up from the ground, brushed the dust off his green robe, straightened his glasses, looked at the dusty Uncle Vernon, and said hastily, "Ah, you must be Harry's aunt and uncle. !"

Uncle Vernon didn't want to talk to him: the explosion just now had destroyed his living room and his best suit.

Mr. Weasley began to babble to Uncle Vernon about his tortuous experience of coming here: it was through his acquaintance in the Floo network management team that he connected the fireplace of the Dursleys with the Floo network, Because strictly speaking, Muggle fireplaces should not be connected to the Internet.He also promised to fix the fireplace for the Dursleys before he Apparated away.

The Dursleys didn't understand a word of this, but they should have caught on to the key words: Muggle fireplaces off the internet, and fixing the fireplace brought Uncle Vernon's dangerous blood pressure back to normal, but he still maintained He stared unfriendly and said nothing.

While they were chatting, Fred and George broke the awkward silence by volunteering to carry Harry's luggage from his bedroom.

Mr. Weasley suppressed his idea of ​​studying Muggle electrical appliances, sent the children back, and was the last to leave, leaving only the three members of the Dursley family standing there blankly—the living room was restored undisturbed.

While Harry was rejoicing to leave the Dursleys, Lu Ren was also very happy.

Because Nurmengard Castle has a guest: Dumbledore.

Dumbledore was stunned when he reached the top of the castle, he even thought he was in the wrong place.

The roof in front of me is no longer the bare open platform, but a huge chessboard with a length and width of nearly a kilometer—almost covering the entire platform.

On the chessboard, two armies are facing each other.The army has a complete range of types, including light armored soldiers holding spears, sword and shield soldiers holding a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, the commander Ruoding and his personal guards, the archers standing at the end and the soldiers wearing heavy armor. Swordsman.

Dumbledore: ?
You always say you can come up with something new for me.

Soon, Lu Ren commanded the army to beat the opponent to pieces - there was nothing to say, if he played chess with himself, he would definitely win.

"Professor Dumbledore, what brought you here?" Lu Ren said lazily as he lay on a recliner at the edge of the "battlefield". He had just finished his dinner and was enjoying the cool evening breeze and The military chess invented by himself - this is also one of his few entertainments.

Dumbledore turned his eyes away from the battlefield full of corpses, and looked at Lu Ren: "The turmoil in Azkaban has basically subsided, I think you have reflected on it, um, you have almost reflected on it, and you will go back to class next semester. "

Lu Ren was a little unsure. Online classes at Nurmengard were much more enjoyable than online classes at Hogwarts. After all, it was unlikely that Professor McGonagall would allow him to perform Transfiguration while wearing shorts and drinking watermelon juice.Still he agreed.

So the next afternoon, Lu Ren appeared at the door of Weasley's house.

"Harry! Ron!" He greeted the two who were playing Quidditch in the garden.

Besides these two, Charlie and Bill are also back.Charlie was about the size of his twins, a little shorter than Percy and Ron, though he was a bit sturdier than either of them.His broad, weather-beaten face was densely covered with freckles, and the strong muscle of his arm bore a large, shiny scar from the fire.

Bill, on the other hand, was very cool: he had long hair tied back in a ponytail, an earring with a small fan dangling from his ear, and a rock-and-roll outfit.

Lu Ren stepped forward and greeted the two seniors, and then he saw Hermione with a head of thick brown hair running over.

"Lu Ren!" She threw herself into Lu Ren's arms, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Behind Hermione was Ron's little sister, Ginny, who still couldn't get over her blush at the sight of Harry.

Hermione grabbed Lu Ren and walked towards his room together - this time he shared a bedroom with Ron, Harry and Fred, while Hermione shared a room with Ginny.The Burrow was getting a little crowded on a rare occasion.

But they had just settled down when there was a deafening banging outside—Bill and Charlie were manipulating the table and fighting.
