Chapter 283

"What the hell is this place?"

After a while of mutual review, Harry finally threw the question to Ron and Hermione.

"Order of the Phoenix," Ron replied without hesitation.

"What is the order of the Phoenix -"

"This is a secret society," Hermione explained later. "It was originally founded by Dumbledore. They were all some people who fought against the mysterious man last time. Now the general director... Is Marca."

"Marca... Yeah! Marca..." Harry stopped walking back and forth, thought for a moment, and then said, "who's in there? It sounds like a lot of people!"

"We've seen about twenty of them," said Ron, "but there must be more than that."

"And then?" Harry rubbed his face, trying to calm himself. "Where's Voldemort now? Why did he send Dementors to attack me? Is anyone else okay?"

"No, in fact, the number of recent attacks has suddenly decreased." Hermione shook her head, and her long messy hair looked like a bundle of dried seaweed.

Ron also whispered: "as for the mysterious man... After the audio-visual meeting, he never appeared again. It seems that the activities of the death eaters are a lot more secret..."

"Do you all know so well?" Harry said strangely, "but it seems that you are not allowed to participate in... Er, the meeting of the order of the Phoenix?"

"Yes! Most adults don't allow it -" Hermione nodded. "But Maka didn't hide it from us... At least, he won't stop us from reading the action report of the order of the Phoenix. When I take the initiative to ask for some details, he will explain it to me."

"Of course! We still can't get in during the meeting..." Ron spread his hand, but bent down and said mysteriously, "but we can also know a little about it."

"How do you know?"

"Fred and George invented telescopic ears, okay?" said Ron. "That gadget really works."

"Telescopic..."

"Yes, telescopic ears!" Ron waved to Harry to get closer. "But we'd better use them less because mom found them - she's so angry!"

"But even if you hear something, it doesn't make much sense!" Hermione didn't seem to like the little prop. She waved her hand. "Many tasks have action reports at Maka's, which are much more detailed than what she said at the meeting."

"... as recently, the main task is to attract more suitable people to join the order of the Phoenix," Hermione added.

"There are also people on guard," said Ron. "Guard tasks or something... You know."

"Guard duty?" Harry thought and suddenly said, "Oh, you mean... Protecting me?"

"I think... Yes, it is."

Ron looked at Harry's reluctant face and didn't know what to say to comfort him.

Harry put away his agitation, and he continued to pace around the room.

"So... What have you two been doing lately?" he asked. "You said in your letter that you had been very busy."

"It's very busy!" said Hermione hurriedly. "The house has been empty for many years. There are a lot of messy things everywhere..."

"My sisters Ron, Marca and Lenny Lena, and miss Witt also came some time ago - we cleaned the house thoroughly together, which was almost finished until recently..."

Hermione broke her fingers and counted the number of people. Finally, she deliberately increased her voice: "Maka is always lazy. He doesn't listen! We're all tired. He slips away from time to time. It's really... Oh!"

"Pa! PA!"

With two shrill explosions and a slight distortion of the space, Ron's twin brothers Fred and George suddenly appeared in the middle of the room.

The kitten headed eagle and piggy screamed even more flustered. It swished past and stopped on the top of the wardrobe with Hedwig.

"You again!" Hermione turned in shock and shouted at the Weasleys twins.

……

"... now that the situation has been determined, it will be much easier to deal with it. We don't need to do anything about this for the time being, just wait for them to show their feet."

The original reception room has now become the conference room and command room of the order of the Phoenix. After listening to Snape's secret report, Maka calmly said while turning over the information report.

"But when they show their feet... Is that reliable?" Tonks, sitting on the side, said with a puzzled look on his face, "why don't we take the initiative?"

Maka smiled and pointed to the records of events on the table: "first of all, Voldemort obviously intends to fight steadily this time. He is reducing irregular multi-point harassment, but will --"

In the middle of Hua's speech, Maka suddenly stopped talking and looked at the closed door.

"Fred and George, today's meeting is a little special. Put that thing away first!"

Maka's words made Mrs. Weasley angry again. He had to wave his hand at Mrs. Weasley and signal her not to be busy scolding the restless twin brothers.

"Cough, I went on..." Maka cleared her throat and continued, "in fact, to put it bluntly, no organization will be monolithic. Even the order of the Phoenix, there has been a situation like Pettigrew Peter?"

"This time Voldemort intends to use his wisdom to create a situation conducive to him, which is not a bad thing for us." he explained, "since he has chosen to use the rules of the magic world, no matter what he does, it means that he will also be bound by the rules -"

Speaking of this, Maka knocked on the table and looked around for a week before he said, "moreover, whether it's recruiting members or negotiating with other forces, we need time, not to mention..."

He looked at Weasley and said, "we can't just leave Percy alone, can we?"

"Leave that bastard alone! I'll be --" Arthur! "

On hearing Percy's name, Mr. Weasley immediately trembled with anger, and Mrs. Weasley's eyes were red again. Tonks couldn't help staring at Marca, then hurried to appease Mrs. Weasley.

In fact, Marca doesn't want to mention it.

But some things can not be regarded as having never happened without mentioning it. On the contrary, we must always carry it out and put it in front of everyone, so as not to cause future regret because of temporary deliberate avoidance.

"Well, then... Do you have any questions?"

Maka said, looked at all the people present, and found that no one raised an objection. Then Lang said, "in that case, that's all for today's meeting! Sirius, I'll go to your room to get a new report tomorrow morning... Let's prepare and have dinner!"

Then he saw Snape trying to leave silently, and suddenly opened his mouth and stopped him.

"Professor Snape!" said Marca. "Really don't you stay for dinner?"

"No." snape didn't even look back and raised his legs to go out.

"Oh! Wait, Professor!" Marca hurriedly chased up. "Professor, since you don't stay for dinner, come directly with me!"

"What's up?" said Snape, frowning.

"Before Kingsley came back, a woman said she wanted to see you... Don't you go and have a look?" Marca pointed upstairs.

"Woman?" snape frowned more. "Who?"

"She said her name was TIA. She said she was from America and graduated from ifamani." Maka shrugged.

"America?" snape thought intently and shook his head. "No impression."

"Then go and have a look?"

When Snape came upstairs with a little impatient, Marca knocked on the door of the bedroom.

"Who, who is there?"

A slight voice came out of the room, which sounded trembling.

"It's me - McClane," said Marca. "Don't you want to see Professor Snape? I brought him..."

Before Maka's voice fell, there was a sound of footsteps inside. Then the bedroom door was opened, and a black eye came to the gap and looked out.

When she saw Snape, the door was finally opened. TIA suddenly stepped out of the door and stared at Snape's face.

Snape looked at TIA up and down suspiciously, frowning more and more tightly, and a sense of irritability gradually appeared on his face.

"Who are you? Why are you looking for me?" he really didn't seem to know TIA, and he didn't seem to have any good feelings for the woman.

However, under Snape's questioning, TIA said nothing. She just kept looking at Snape's face as if something on Snape's face was attracting her attention.

"I'm asking you a question!"

Seeing TIA staring at him like this, he seemed more impatient and raised the volume coldly.

"No... you... I..." TIA was startled by him, opened her mouth and began to speak incoherently.

"Miss TIA," Marca had to remind her, "don't you see Professor Snape now? Calm down. No one will bully you here. You can talk slowly... What's the matter with Professor Snape?"

Marca was puzzled when Kingsley brought her back.

It is said that she has been wandering in xiaohuijin district. It is said that she has lost her way. But the day she came up to Harry to ask for directions, there happened to be a Dementor, which was suspicious.

Coupled with her cowardly to strange character, it is difficult not to doubt her.

For such a strange woman who suddenly appeared, Maka had no choice but to leave her under her own eyes so that she could notice her behavior at any time.

However, the more she observed, the more she wondered - what on earth did this woman come for?

"... what can I do for you, Professor Snape?" Marca asked again, softening her tone a little.

"No, I don't know..."

Maya couldn't help rolling her eyes at TIA's answer.
