The Periodic Table of Words at Hogwarts

"Ah, Arthur, I'm glad you look good."

Dumbledore gently opened the door with a basket of fruit.

"Ah, Dumbledore"!

In this relatively spacious ward, Mr. Weasley, who was very pale, was leaning on the bedside, while Mrs. Weasley was sitting on a small stool beside the bed, taking care of her husband.

"The doctor said the snake was poisonous, but luckily I was sent here in time."

Mr. Weasley tried his best to smile, and then pointed to his bitten right arm.

"Tsk, what a poisonous snake."

Dumbledore checked the wound gently, then frowned.

"Arthur, did you see what that snake looked like?"

"Ah, the light was too dim and I didn't see clearly, but according to Moody, they caught the snake. I also need to express my gratitude to Mr. Zirol."

Mr. Weasley pointed to the bedside table, and Dumbledore looked in the direction of his finger. He saw a yellow "sachet" on the bedside table, with obvious signs of being punctured by fangs.

"The snake bit the magic prop for the second time, which contained a snake-repellent potion, so the snake fainted on the spot. Mr. Moody and their colleagues caught it."

Mrs. Weasley tried hard to put a smile on her face, but both people present could see that her eyes were already red and swollen, as if she had just cried.

"Relax, Molly, your husband is going to be fine."

Dumbledore chatted with the Weasleys for a while, then put down the fruit basket very politely and walked out of the ward with Zhang Qi.

"I think we need to go to the Ministry of Magic's Department of Justice to have a look at the snake."

Zhang Qi said to Dumbledore.

"That's what I mean, kid. Let's walk slowly down this street towards the Ministry of Magic and take this opportunity to think about it for a moment."

Dumbledore rubbed his temples tiredly, and the two walked out of St. Mungo's Hospital of Witchcraft and Wizardry, talking and walking forward along the street.

"There seems to be some connection between Harry and Voldemort, which makes me have a bad guess. I hope my guess is wrong."

The old man thought to himself.

"But fortunately, Harry should be lying on the bed in the school hospital calmly now, and he shouldn't come out and run around."

………………

"Hermione, something happened to Mr. Weasley"!

Lying weakly on the hospital bed, Harry whispered.

"I know, Dumbledore should have dealt with this matter just now. What you have to do now is to take good care of yourself."

Hermione covered Harry with the quilt with rare tenderness, and then gently rubbed his forehead.

"All right".

Harry closed his eyes helplessly, trying to regain his energy.

however.

"what"!

About a quarter of an hour later, Hermione, who had become a little drowsy under the warm afternoon sun, suddenly heard a scream from Harry on the hospital bed, which scared her so much that she jumped up from the stool and was very scared. He grabbed the wand in panic.

"Harry, what's wrong with you"?

"I, I saw it"...

Harry held his head hard to stop the pain, and his body was still shaking.

"Voldemort, he caught Sirius! He kept torturing him"!

Harry struggled to sit up from the bed, and then tried hard to put on his coat.

"what"?

Hermione's mouth fell open in surprise.

"Harry, Mr. Sirius is on vacation in Northern Europe right now! It's a very remote place, and there's no way Voldemort can catch him!"

"I saw it! It was in that corridor! I passed by there when I was on trial during the summer vacation!"

Convinced of what he had seen, Harry limped toward the door, clutching his wand tightly, convinced that Sirius had been attacked.

"But, how are you going to get there? The fireplace in the castle doesn't lead there! Only the principal's office has it"...

Hermione's voice suddenly stopped.

"That's right, we may want to borrow the senior investigator lady's fireplace."

Harry nodded weakly.

"But, you will be fired"!

Hermione lowered her voice and yelled at her boyfriend.

"I can't let my only relative die in this world"!

Harry responded firmly, and then started to climb up the stairs to the eighth floor of the castle.

"Hey Harry, I didn't think you were coming".

Ron, who was fishing in the Room of Requirement, was startled and ran over quickly.

"Students, we are about to usher in the first real combat of the combat club"!

Harry walked up to the duel stage hard and waved to the classmates who had just noticed him.

"Now, those who don't want to participate can withdraw. This time, things are very dangerous."

Harry looked into the eyes of his classmates. Some of them averted their eyes for a moment, but he saw true determination in some people's eyes.

And a look of confusion.

"Miss Greengrass? Why are you here"?

Harry looked at Astoria with a shocked expression, and the two looked at each other awkwardly.

“Well, I hid something in this room that I was going to take”…

Astoria said weakly.

"Uh, what on earth are you going to do now"?

Astoria looked around at the crowd and asked with some confusion.

"A friend of mine was attacked by Voldemort, and I needed to rush to the scene immediately to support him."

Harry said very firmly.

"Dumbledore happened to be visiting Mr. Weasley in the hospital and was unable to support us."

Looking at everyone who just gasped when they heard that name, Harry continued:

"I don't know if I can live to bring my last relatives back, but I know that if I don't go, then Sirius won't survive."

"Now, those who want to go with me please stand by my side. Those who think this mission is dangerous and don't want to go can stay where they are."

"Sorry, Harry".

Harry's roommate Seamus walked out first and patted Harry on the shoulder apologetically.

"It's okay, this mission is really dangerous."

Harry also patted him on the shoulder, signaling him not to feel too guilty.

"Hey, Cedric, are you going"?

Zhang Qiu gently poked his boyfriend's waist.

"Harry is a good man and for the sake of my conscience I think I have to go".

Cedric took a deep breath and showed a determined look in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Zhang Qiu also gently held his boyfriend's hand.

"Anyone else want to quit?"

Harry asked several more times, but except for the first few students who wanted to quit, everyone else stood by his side.

"Well, our plan is to go to the Ministry of Magic through the fireplace in the pink toad's office, and then carry out operations, so first of all, we have to lure the toad away."

Harry said to everyone:

"I'm going to knock her out directly because I've really had enough of her these days"!

"But it's impossible for you guys to defeat Voldemort. His strength is no longer what it used to be. Even Principal Dumbledore himself doesn't dare to say that he can escape unscathed."

Astoria looked at these high-spirited students gathered together and shook her head.

"Yes, so we can't be reluctant to fight, we must fight quickly."

Harry nodded in agreement.

"But you are going to die like this."

Astoria scratched her hair irritably, then stood up abruptly.

"Go to the principal's office with me first. We need something."

"Ah? Are you going too?"

Hermione was obviously a little surprised by Astoria's attitude.

"That disgusting noseless monster killed my parents, Miss Granger, and since Hilbert always treated me like a vase and didn't want you all to die collectively under the Ministry of Magic, I think I'd better follow you. Better".

Astoria pushed open the door to the Room of Requirement and strode up the stairs.

“Why are you students gathering in the hallways”?

Halfway through the walk, everyone heard the familiar disgusting voice. When they looked up, Umbridge was blocking her waist on the stairs with a confused look on her face.

That greasy and fat face was so hateful to everyone.

"vomit"!

Harry couldn't help but bend over and began to retch.

"what do you mean"!

Umbridge was obviously irritated by Harry's vomiting behavior after seeing him, and strode over here.

"Snapped"!

With a crisp and disgusting sound, Astoria raised her fist like lightning and punched the pink toad firmly on the left cheek!

The fist hit the fat-rich flesh, and the disgusting face trembled, forming a concussive pattern like water dripping into a lake.

Saliva flew out of her mouth along with blood and fallen teeth. Umbridge was beaten and her body tilted to one side, hitting the guardrail of the stairs heavily, and then fell to the ground with a plop.

"Okay, she's passed out in physical form, and by the way, I've wanted to beat her up for a long time."

The little boots on Astoria's feet kicked Umbridge, who was unconscious on the stairs, and her fat body rolled on the stairs, making a thumping sound.

"Well, I take back what I said the year before last, Hermione is not as scary as you"...

Ron shuddered at the back of the crowd.

"Password"?

As soon as Astoria's feet stepped on the seventh floor, the stone beast suddenly came to life and hesitantly asked the password.

"Lemon Olaf, pile of cockroaches, licorice wand, Grindelwald"?

Astoria tilted her head and spoke a long list of words.

"The last noun is correct. How did you know that he just changed his password today?"

The stone beast moved to the side in confusion, revealing the stairs leading to the principal's office.

"Purely guessing."

Everyone filed in, and Astoria wasted no time and walked directly towards the hat.

"Wow, this beautiful lady, I think I know your name, your name is... don't, don't, don't! Don't touch around in there"!

The elegant voice of the hat suddenly turned into a scream. Astoria ignored the discomfort of the hat, grabbed the hidden hilt of the sword, and pulled out Greed!

"Is this Mr. Gryffindor's sword? Oh my God, there is still one relic of the four founders"!

There was a murmur behind.

Astoria ignored those voices and gradually focused her consciousness on the sword.

"Zizi"~

Greed felt the blood of the Black King, and immediately began to change its shape willingly.

The Scottish broadsword changed into the shape of a cane in the girl's hands, just like the original sin of Sadhu. The only difference was that the wolf head was replaced by a dragon head, and the blade seemed sharper than before.

"Come on, let's go to that disgusting toad's office".

Everyone immediately walked down the fifth floor, and then Astoria kicked open the locked Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher's office and strode to the fireplace.

"Ministry of Magic Underground Communal Fireplace".

Except for Astoria, all the people walked in in pairs.

They grabbed a handful of Floo powder and spoke out where they wanted to go, then disappeared in green flames.

"Ah, I hope he won't be angry."

Astoria also grabbed a handful of Floo powder, and green flames enveloped her. The girl muttered something to herself at the last moment, and was then teleported on the spot by the teleportation circle.

"Here we are".

Several people emerged from the six public fireplaces in the Ministry of Magic, quickly organized according to the usual group formation, and moved forward in groups of three along the empty hall of the Ministry of Magic.

There was no one on this road and it was so quiet that everyone had to wonder what was going on here.

"Why is there no one? The Ministry of Magic must have Aurors on duty even after get off work hours"!

Hermione lowered her voice and spoke to Astoria.

"There are other possibilities. For example, the Ministry of Magic encountered an unprecedented enemy. All the Aurors had to go to fight, and other employees have also been evacuated."

Astoria happened to pass by the office area at this time. The place seemed very messy, with papers and other things scattered on the floor, and there were a few fresh shoe prints on it, as if they had just stepped on it.

"Are we already in danger?"

Hermione asked quietly, a hint of fear in her eyes.

"Don't worry, your training is already very good."

Astoria narrowed her eyes and walked into the elevator gently.

"Ground Floor, Department of Mysteries."

A voice without any emotion sounded. The moment the elevator door opened, several students who had used transformation techniques to transform the chairs and tables in the office area into shields rushed out first, blocking everyone in front of them. .

"No more shields, there's no one in this corridor."

Astoria squinted, where her vision could get the most out of it.

This dark corridor was empty, and at the end of the corridor was a door that looked very old and dilapidated.

"The end of this corridor should be the warehouse where the prophecy balls are stored, but Sirius is not here. They may have dragged him into the warehouse"!

Harry moved forward impatiently, but was pulled back by his girlfriend.

"Keep formation and advance slowly"!

The team that had just become scattered became orderly again. After applying the iron armor spell to the shields, the team began to advance slowly again.

However, for some reason, Astoria always felt that this empty darkness made her very uncomfortable.

It was as if someone was watching me secretly.
