The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Hogsmeade Village Open Day in a week.

Link and Emily stood in front of a window on the fourth floor of Hogwarts, looking at the long queue at the entrance of Hogwarts.

"Let's go too."

After watching for a while, Link turned to Emily and said.

"Okay."

Emily said happily, and then walked towards the stairs.

However, Link took her hand and led her in the opposite direction.

This made Emily a little confused, but fortunately Link explained next:

"What happened underground in the Black Lake was so bad. In view of the possibility that another attack could happen at any time, the school asked us to use other ways to get to Hogsmeade Village."

"Other passages?"

"You'll know when it arrives."

After hearing this, Emily stopped talking and was pulled by Link straight to a statue of a one-eyed witch.

In the past, this place was a relatively remote place. Today is Hogsmeade Village's open day, so now it is even more deserted.

Only Hagrid and Snape stood in front of the statue as guards.

To be honest, the combination of the two is obviously not a good match. Hagrid is very afraid of Snape. He used to be very cheerful, but now he looks nervous and silent. Even when he saw Link coming, he just smiled reluctantly.

"You're still thinking about going to Hogsmeade Village at this time. I guess you don't have the concept of crisis awareness in your walnut-sized brain, right? Sir, F-Lee!"

Snape mocked with a cold face, while Link retaliated mercilessly:

"You should tell Harry this, he is the one who should understand this most. Also, does Dumbledore already know about this?"

Snape snorted coldly and stopped talking.

Link's brows furrowed.

It has been a long time since Snape sent the message to Dumbledore. Logically speaking, in the face of such a serious situation, Dumbledore should have responded immediately.

At the worst, he should summon Link to have a serious talk about this matter.

But the result was that Dumbledore did not move at all during this period and fell into silence.

This made Link wonder if Dumbledore and Snape were doing some unknown tricks behind his back.

However, if Snape knew what Link was thinking, he would probably die unjustly.

Because he is even more confused than Link.

Dumbledore didn't pay much attention to him at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to guard the one-eyed witch statue in person. He was really worried about the safety of Harry and Link.

"Okay Link, it's getting late, you should go quickly."

Seeing that Link and Snape were becoming more and more quarrelsome, Hagrid hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.

Hearing this, Link nodded, took out his wand and pointed it at the one-eyed witch statue.

"Left and right separation."

With a dull sound of the mechanism turning, the one-eyed witch statue slowly separated, revealing the deep passage inside.

Link quickly pulled Emily inside.

Link was a little surprised when he entered the tunnel.

Although this was his first time entering here, he had been to the Whomping Willow Secret Passage, so he had a clear understanding of what the secret passage in Hogwarts looked like.

But the environment of this secret passage with the one-eyed witch statue is better than Link expected.

Not only is it dry here, but the lighting is excellent due to the large number of magic torches hanging on the stone walls on both sides.

There is no debris such as rat droppings or gravel in the entire secret passage, as if it had been cleaned up before.

As for Emily, she completely transformed into a tourist-like existence at this time.

She kept looking around the secret passage with her shining eyes, and from time to time she touched the stone walls on both sides that were not flat. She turned to Link and asked:

"Link! There is such a secret passage in Hogwarts!"

"It's not surprising," Link shrugged. "After all, when this castle was built, European wizards were in the middle of a war. The four giants must have considered safety issues at that time, so they built many secret rooms and escape passages. If If you are interested in this, you can ask Filch. He has been at Hogwarts for decades. I think no one except Dumbledore will be more familiar with this castle than him."

Emily's eyes became brighter and she nodded repeatedly, looking quite impatient.

Link didn't take this to heart, smiled, nodded and quickened his pace.

Thanks to the tunnel being repaired, the two of them walked for nearly 10 minutes before reaching the key point. After pushing open a trap door, they successfully entered the cellar of Honeydukes Candy Shop.

Like the One-Eyed Witch statue, there is a caretaker here.

Professor McGonagall scanned Link and Emily carefully with her eyes, and also carefully helped Emily tidy up her slightly messy hair, and warned Link:

"You can only stay in Hogsmeade Village until 4 pm. I will be waiting for you here. Don't be late."

After hearing this, Link and Emily quickly thanked them, and then under the guidance of Professor McGonagall, they came directly to the streets of Hogsmeade Village through another newly opened secret passage.

Emily looked a little nervous and embarrassed as she looked at Mrs. Puddifu's Teahouse not far away, where they had arranged to meet with Mrs. Foley today.

Link is actually not much easier than Emily.

Because he knew very well that Mrs. Foley came here not to praise him for his outstanding performance in the Triwizard Tournament, but to accuse him.

Link was not surprised by this.

Because in his previous letter to Mrs. Foley, he had already roughly told what he wanted to do, his subsequent plans, and even the fact that Voldemort was planning to resurrect.

As a result, Mrs. Foley's reaction was beyond Link's expectation, and she sent Little Button to deliver a letter that night saying that she wanted to meet Link.

But judging from this eager attitude, Link knew that this matter might not be fooled so easily.

"call!"

At this time, Emily seemed to finally be mentally prepared. She took a long breath and said to Link, "Let's go."

Hearing this, Link did not refuse. He took a long breath like Emily and walked towards Mrs. Puddifu's Teahouse.

The two held hands and were led directly from the back door to the private room on the second floor by Mrs. Puddifu.

Compared with the small, cramped and extremely tacky decoration and layout on the first floor, both the space and the furnishings in the private room reveal a kind of grand elegance and nobility. According to Mrs. Padiff's proud introduction on the road, this private room should be It was built by Mrs. Padiff in imitation of the style of the Palace of Versailles in the Louis XIV era.

At this moment, Mrs. Foley was sitting so naturally on the high chair in the main seat of the private room, and the house elf Little Button, who was acting as the messenger, was standing behind her.

"Aunt Leonie!"

After arriving here, Emily seemed to have completely forgotten her previous nervousness. After cheering and shouting, she threw herself directly into Mrs. Foley's arms. She also took out a food box and said, "This is I made it with my own hands! Give it to you."

The food box contained cookies, and Link knew this.

Because Emily doesn't know how to bake at all, her box of cookies was essentially made by Link taking her to the Hogwarts kitchen, and then the house elves taught her step by step.

If I had to say it, there might be more house elves involved in the entire production process.

Of course, the reality is that no one cares about this at all, and the same goes for Mrs. Foley. She still happily tasted the biscuits, and then praised Emily wildly.

The two of them laughed and chatted for a long time, until Link became impatient and Mrs. Foley finally said:

"Little Emily, how about you help me go to the post office to pick up something? That's the gift I'm going to give you."

As soon as these words came out, the smile on Emily's face became a little stiff.

She was not a fool, so she could naturally hear Mrs. Foley's intention to get rid of her.

Emily turned her head and glanced at Link nervously. After Link nodded, she forced herself to smile and said goodbye to Mrs. Foley, and left the private room under the leadership of Little Button.

As soon as Emily left, the originally cheerful atmosphere in the entire private room immediately became depressed. Mrs. Foley stopped laughing and sat on the main seat looking at Link expressionlessly.

Link knew that the real storm was about to begin today.

Sure enough, after a long time, Mrs. Foley finally sighed and said:

"Link, do you understand the consequences of interfering in the war between Voldemort and Dumbledore without permission?"

"Of course I know, mother." Link approached Mrs. Foley and said in as soft a voice as possible, "In my opinion, we actually have no other choice."

"We can still go, can't we? To the United States, or to Asia. I have already made arrangements in those places over the years. We can definitely move there in advance and live our lives smoothly."

Mrs. Foley's voice became a little excited.

In her opinion, Link was just messing around, and the risk of getting involved in this kind of thing without authorization was too great.

Although the power currently controlled by the Foley family seems powerful, it pales in comparison to legends such as Dumbledore and Voldemort, who are at the level of strategic nuclear weapons.

No matter where they stand in this matter, they will be in disaster if something unexpected happens.

Regarding this, Foley's father has personally proved it with his own life!

And Mrs. Foley didn't want her son to try it again!

Link knew very well that Mrs. Foley didn't care about world peace at all, nor did she care about the Foley family. She just wanted her son to live, and she just wanted to see Link marry Emily properly and give birth to a child. A bunch of children surround her every day.

But Link also knew that it was actually very difficult to realize this wish that seemed so ordinary at first glance.

He was silent for a while, then touched his chest and said calmly to Mrs. Foley:

"Mother, how many secrets are hidden in my body?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Foley's expression froze, and her body trembled slightly.

Her reaction was all seen by Link, who sighed softly and said:

"You all know it, you just don't want to tell me. But that's not important anymore. The key issue now is that Voldemort is very interested in me and the blood in my body. My blood seems to be able to enhance His power. That's why I said that we actually have no other choice at all. Because if Voldemort really wins, then I believe that no matter where we escape, he will send people to chase us.

So, all we can do now is try to nip the danger in the bud. "

Mrs. Foley's body trembled even more violently, and her face became very pale.

Link quickly grabbed Mrs. Foley's hand, only to find that Mrs. Foley's hand had also become extremely cold, and her whole body fell into great fear.

Link, who noticed this, sighed again. This was the first time he saw Mrs. Foley acting so rude.

Link originally did not intend to say these words to Mrs. Foley. After all, this fact was indeed a bit too cruel to Mrs. Foley.

Judging from the current request, Mrs. Foley's mood may be difficult to stabilize for a long time to come.

However, something unexpected happened. After a brief loss of composure, Mrs. Foley quickly regained her composure.

She in turn squeezed Link's hand tightly and gritted her teeth:

"Sorry Link, I still can't tell you about that secret. But now that Voldemort knows your existence and wants to start a war with us, let's start a war directly!"

She pressed her forehead against Link's forehead again and said softly:

"Mom will never let them hurt you!"

After saying this, Mrs. Foley stood up and walked towards the fireplace.

This made Link a little confused. He hurriedly tried to stop him but heard Mrs. Foley saying:

"Don't worry, go ahead and do what you want, Link. Mom will go find some outside help for you!"

boom!

The flames carried Mrs. Foley and disappeared into the fireplace, while Link sat back in his seat speechlessly.

He felt that his guess might be correct. Mrs. Foley had indeed been psychologically prepared for the current situation, so she prepared 'foreign aid' in advance.

Now, it depends on whether Mrs. Foley's foreign aid is reliable.

At this moment, the crackling sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded from beside Link. After a while, old Kled wearing a pirate eyepatch appeared out of thin air.

He sat next to Link without noticing anything, and grabbed a cookie and put it into his mouth. After finishing the meal, he shook his head and said to Link:

"Link, don't worry about what the lady says."

Link glanced sideways at Old Kled and said seriously:

"She's my mother."

"But she is a married outsider after all!" Old Kled retorted decisively, amplifying his voice, "You are Mrs. Foley's heir! I hope you can understand this.

In these years, she has only been exercising the rights of the head of the Foley family on your behalf.But now that you have grown up, it is time for the power to be transferred to you.Those are my thoughts and those of everyone in the Foley family.

Don't worry Link, we are all willing to obey your orders!

Your plan is perfect!Be bold and go for it!

Let the glory of the Foley family spread throughout the world again!Go and replace the old patriarch and your father to take back all the things we have lost! "

Old Kled kept talking in Link's ear.

His expression has become extremely ferocious, and every scar on his face is constantly beating, as if telling Link about his determination!
