HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation
Chapter 187 Bracelet and Quarrel
Bella quickly stopped what she was doing, threw the two wands in her hands at the two people lying down, and then left proudly. Xia turned over and lay flat on the ground. She reached out to the wand and wanted to use the quick recovery, but she didn't even have the strength to speak.
But Xia's brain was unusually active, and she clearly felt this time that the spell she was under from Bella was far from the original power. It was definitely not Bella showing mercy, there was only one possibility, something took on half of the spell.
Xia was panting rapidly. The action just now had consumed her remaining strength. Now she could feel the heart-wrenching pain spreading to all parts of her body when she moved her fingers slightly.
What do I have on me now? Hogwarts robes? Gryffindor emblem? No, that's unlikely. These two are very ordinary clothes, without any magical fluctuations. Is it a hairpin or necklace given by Sirius? He said before that there is a tracking spell on the necklace. Oh, God, this is good news! He can find their location! I hope he can contact his parents or Professor Dumbledore. Merlin bless him, he doesn't have a conflict with Walburga because of this. The joy in Xia's heart was quickly replaced by worry. She thought that Sirius might be tortured by Walburga, and that Ender and James would definitely not stay at home obediently. She thought that her parents, grandfathers and great-grandfathers would all be very worried about her, as well as the Abbotts.
Xia turned her head to look at Betty and found her lying there motionless. Xia was terrified. She struggled to crawl to Betty, but the next second she saw Betty's belly rising and falling slightly, so she lay back down with peace of mind. She was still breathing, so the worst had not yet happened.
With this interruption, Xia's worries dissipated a little, and she rethought the original question - the only bracelet on her was special enough, the one her grandmother gave her - Xia believed that her grandparents were capable of doing this but she didn't think they did it.
Grandma said this was a Priest family heirloom - maybe it was left by Lillian? Xia guessed, she was a little annoyed that she had forgotten this when she was chatting with Lillian in the manor - in any case, Xia was inclined to believe that the bracelet had this function.
Xia rolled over and came to Betty. She searched Betty's pockets. She hoped that the bracelet could protect Betty at the critical moment. Her intuition told her that Voldemort would be very dissatisfied with Bella's behavior. She might not suffer other tortures because of this, but Betty was different. Xia took off the bracelet and put it in her pocket along with Betty's wand. Then she fainted again due to the exhaustion.
Since Sirius found the location of Xia and Betty that day, Dumbledore said that he would check some magic to break through the defenses of the manor. Now they could only wait for news, because the next morning, the Daily Prophet did not mention a word about this matter, which also meant that the attitude of the Ministry of Magic was not friendly, and it would be difficult to get their help.
The Minister of Magic is not a useless person. On the contrary, she has solved many riots before, but this time the situation is really tricky because the Death Eaters have begun to act arrogantly. Shortly after the kidnapping on the platform, there were reports of accidental deaths of Muggles in other places. When they died, their expressions were horrified and there were no external injuries. It is obvious that it was caused by the curse, and the Aurors were very busy. The Minister may be busy dealing with these accidents, big and small, but she symbolically sent Aurors to appease the Hopes and Abbotts. After all, these two families are well-known pure-blood families. Even if they are very low-key, it is not a wise choice to go against them. They must be well-prepared to save face.
But to Lawrence's surprise, the Auror who came was Alastor Moody. Lawrence had heard of his style, which made Lawrence wonder what the Ministry of Magic meant.
"It has nothing to do with the Ministry. I came here on my own request." Moody saw through Lawrence's thoughts. He snorted coldly, expressing his strong dissatisfaction with the attitude of the Ministry of Magic. As usual, he asked Lawrence a question after asking some questions: "What is Dumbledore's attitude?"
Lawrence raised an eyebrow in surprise. His impression of the Ministry of Magic was extremely bad. Coupled with Moody's question... it was hard not to think that they had some conspiracy against Dumbledore. Many people in high positions of power had disliked him for a long time.
Moody snorted again and said sarcastically, "Boy, do you think I'm the same as those idiots in the Ministry? I just want to ask one question, what is Dumbledore's attitude?"
"Old friend, if you continue like this I'm afraid you'll take me away." Dumbledore suddenly visited the Hopps family and happened to hear Moody's words.
"So, you plan to fight to the end?"
"Everyone's life deserves respect." Dumbledore said. Moody nodded, said "I understand" and disappeared on the spot.
Lawrence brought Dumbledore into the living room. Anna was upstairs contacting the old Hopes and the old Priests. Ender was holding the set of wizard chess that Xia had given him at the door in the morning. He had wanted it for a long time and was feeling sad. The gift from Xia was exactly what he had been looking forward to for a long time, but he would rather not have it and only hoped that Xia could come back.
Dumbledore obviously came here to discuss something. Lawrence wanted to get Ender out of the way, but Ender became agitated, which was unusual for him. James and Sirius also arrived at the Hopps's house at this time. They heard Ender loudly questioning, "Why should I leave? I want to stay here! I want to participate! I want my sister!"
Lawrence rubbed his nose tiredly. He had guessed that Ander would be like this. He didn't want his son to be in danger. It was enough to have the adults around.
Ander was even more excited by his father's attitude. He could be described as jumping up and down. Lawrence couldn't help but say, "I know how you feel. She's not just your sister, she's also my daughter! I hope you can calm down, okay?"
"Calm down? How can I calm down? Am I supposed to wait at home and hear that I will never see her again?"
Ender's face flushed, and his momentum rose little by little as he breathed heavily.
Lawrence was completely angry, "Enough, Andrick Hopps!"
Lawrence seldom got angry, or rather, in Xia and Ander's memories, he had never been angry. But it was precisely because of this that Ander was frightened by Lawrence's aura. He seemed to be calmer but still stared at his father unwillingly.
"I promise, she'll be fine." Lawrence said. "I don't want my children to be in danger. Please be considerate of me and your mother, okay?"
Ander calmed down. He didn't dare to think about what would happen to his parents if something happened to him and Xia, but he was also worried about Xia. He promised that he would not do anything dangerous, he promised that he would obey the arrangements, and he even promised that he could just stay outside -
"As long as I don't do nothing at home, I can agree to it." Seeing the pleading expression on Xia's face, Lawrence would be lying if he said he didn't feel soft-hearted, especially since Ander had never shown such an expression. But principles are principles, and Lawrence didn't say anything. He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, he would not be able to help but agree. This time it was not a joke.
"I just want to be closer to her - Dad -" Ander's voice was tinged with tears, and he said "please"...
If Xia were here, she would realize that this was very similar to her previous dream - only this time, her mother was present.
