Chapter 1167: win-win

  Chapter 1167 Win-Win Cooperation

An hour ago.

In a remote and uninhabited village in Devon, Sirius and Lupine are on a surveillance mission, because soon, a decoy named "Kenneth" will come to this village, which is in harmony with the prophecy. Master "Mr. Anderson" contacts.

  Of course, these two guys are actually fakes, and there is not even a man who looks like Albert Anderson in that house.

   But these don't matter, as long as the Death Eaters and relevant personnel of the Ministry of Magic believe that Albert Anderson is hiding here, it is enough.

  Who made the group of Death Eaters who wanted Albert to die have not been able to find any clues about him so far.

Kenneth, who is in charge of "delivering" Zuko, must know something. Even if the person caught this time is not Albert, he must be someone closely related to him. As long as he controls them and wants to find Albert Te is by no means difficult.

  Since the Ministry of Magic can use Veritaserum, so can the Death Eaters, and they can use harsher methods of torture.

Therefore, Sirius was not worried at all that the Death Eaters would not bite Luuer, not to mention that according to the information provided by the snot, after Lucius Malfoy spent a lot of Galleons to send himself to Azkaban Prison, The Death Eater on the mission to murder Albert Anderson was Bellatrix Lestrange, that crazy woman.

Many times, Sirius expressed disdain for his cousin Bellatrix's bad taste. After all, Voldemort's appearance is really...very unique. Just saying that he has no nose...Sirius is actually more curious, and he admired him so much back then Voldemort's Bella, why didn't she consider marrying Voldemort directly?

  Although this is a joke, Sirius really can't understand that crazy woman's enthusiasm for Voldemort. Is this the kind of star-chasing fanaticism that everyone likes singer Celestina Warbeck?

   I really can't understand it.

   Putting away the chaotic thoughts in his head, Sirius cast his eyes on the chessboard in front of him, and then looked up at the moon face whose cheeks were wrinkled into a ball.

"I should give this monitoring task to Tonks." Sirius joked with a smile. He had indeed considered doing this, but as an Auror, Tonks also had his own work, so it was a pity that he missed this time. A chance to be alone with Lupine.

   "Stop joking, it's not funny at all." Lupine didn't like this joke very much, and talking about Tonks always made him feel very upset.

   "How's your relationship going?" Sirius pressed.

   "Same as usual." Lupine didn't like the subject much.

   "Didn't you find time to go out with her?" Sirius raised his eyebrows slightly, he hoped that his old buddy could find his own happiness.

   "I think you should also think about your own problems first." Lupine changed the subject.

"my question?"

   "You are one year older than me." After Lupine dropped the chess piece in his hand, his eyes swept across the large looking glass, and then fell on the demon mirror placed by the wall, but there was still no response. He got up and went to the window, using the half-closed curtain to secretly observe the situation outside.

   "Is there a problem?" Sirius asked.

   "No." Lupine shook his head.

   "Then sit down and finish this round, it's your turn again." Sirius was about to use the knight to corner Lupin's king.

   "I thought..."

   "I don't think about getting married." Sirius interrupted indifferently, "It's best to let the Black family end in my generation. Anyway, I never considered inheriting this annoying family."

  Listening to Padfoot's words, Lupine fell silent.

   "Are you really going to..."

"Yes." Sirius glanced at the Marauder's Map in his hand, and said impatiently, "I think you should face your feelings bravely than my affairs, Tonks is a good girl, don't I failed her."

   "There's no way we're going to end up," Lupine said stiffly. "I don't want to delay her either, and, besides, I'm more concerned now..."

   "You've delayed her."

Sirius glanced at the king who was about to be checkmate on the chessboard, and said to Lupine who was standing by the window watching, "Also, I think your worries are completely unnecessary. You must wait for Kenneth to come over, and the group The guy will follow him to find this place, and I suspect that the ones following him are likely to be a group of pathfinders who don't know anything. After all, after being tricked once, everyone will become smarter."

   "Makes sense."

Lupine used binoculars to observe the vicinity of "Albert"'s home, trying to find suspicious persons, and soon his eyes turned to the safe house of the Ministry of Magic. The case of Bones reminded everyone that mutual cooperation can reduce the number of victims. to the risk of a sneak attack.

   "Escape is never a good choice." Sirius tapped the chessboard with his fingers, "Don't think you can use this way..."

   "You won." Lupine said directly.

"I was the one who won, and it's not a good way for you to feel sorry for yourself." Sirius' tone paused, as if he felt something, he reached out and took out the communication pen from his pocket. After unfolding it, he found that there was more gold on it. Sly's message.

   "Any news?" Lupine asked.

"'Kenneth' has just left the safe house arranged for him by the Ministry of Magic. Kingsley suspects that there are Death Eaters inside the Ministry of Magic, but they have never found the suspect. Just delete the agent and select the spy again." Sirius simply said the message from Kingsley, "By the way, Arthur will come over later, they think the Death Eaters will take action tonight, so they should come to check on the spot in advance .”

   "Tonight? The information provided by that person, or..." Lupine put down his binoculars, turned his head and said, "This whole thing is weird from beginning to end."

"Weird, no, I think it's normal, isn't that what Anderson is like, many of his saucy operations are incomprehensible to others." Sirius didn't think there was any problem, "That guy's black hand is really hard to guard against , Sometimes I feel that we are very lucky, Albert is on our side, so it is the Death Eaters who are unlucky now, not us."

"That's a very nice and responsible man. I think he would do that more because the Mysterious Man and the Death Eaters pressed him too hard." Lupine leaned towards Albert, "If someone did that , I think I will go crazy and kill them all."

   At this moment, a dark green flame suddenly rose from the fireplace in the living room, and a figure came out of the flame. He smiled and greeted the two who were chatting.

"How is it going?"

   "It's quiet, how's it going over there?" Lupine asked.

"'Kenneth' should be on his way here, but we still haven't found anyone watching him." Arthur came to the window and quietly observed the outside through the gap in the curtains, "The Aurors are very unhappy with this operation. Look, they think it might be a waste of time this time."

   "After all, Mr. Toller has already made a bait once, as long as he is not too stupid, he will not be easily fooled." After Lupine finished the rest of Arthur's words.

   "I think they just said that when they saw that no one was recruited." Sirius said contemptuously. "I guess it's because the past few months have gone so well that they have become stupid."

   "Sigh, people are forgetful." Arthur sighed helplessly, "Smooth weather has indeed made some people temporarily forget the threat posed by the mysterious man."

   "Don't worry, since Albert wants to use the Ministry of Magic to retaliate against Bellatrix, this incident is probably also predicted." Sirius is not worried that the plan will fail at all, he knows Albert better than the Ministry of Magic.

"Both Scrimgeour and we are willing to believe in Albert, not because his predictions are almost 100% true." Sirius noticed the gazes of the two, and explained, "Smart like Albert Man, he will definitely not use a plan that will fail to dispel the Ministry of Magic and our absolute confidence in him, otherwise it will not be so easy for him to use the Ministry of Magic and us to take revenge on the Death Eaters in the future."

   "Ahem, I think this should be called mutual benefit and win-win cooperation." Lupine corrected, and he is not worried now, because what Sirius said is so reasonable.

   "Remus is right, it really should be called win-win cooperation." Arthur also agrees with Lupine's words, and it is indeed the case.
