Chapter 863: The progress
Molly, you cant stop Fred and George, said Mr. Weasley wearily. They are of age.
Theyre still at school.
But theyre legally adults now, said Mr. Weasley in the same tired voice.
I oh, all right then, Fred and George can stay, but Ron Mrs. Weasley was now scarlet in the face.
Evan and Harry will tell me and Hermione everything you say anyway! said Ron Hotly. Wont you? he added uncertainly, meeting Harrys eyes.
For a split second, Harry considered telling Ron that he wouldnt tell him a single word, that he could try a taste of being kept in the dark and see how he liked it. But the nasty impulse vanished as they looked at each other.
Of course I will, said Harry, and Rons eyes brightened.
As for Evan, if he knew something, he might not tell Ron, but he would certainly not keep Hermione in the dark.
Hed even told her about the Titan of Time, the evil gods, and many secrets, this fact of Voldemort was nothing.
In fact, Evan was not too interested in listening to what Lupin and Mr. Weasley were about to tell them.
At this point, he intended to study the structure of the broomsticks or to find some magic books in the library of the Black family below.
The last time he came here, he was in a hurry and took only a small part of the Dark magic books.
There were many other magic books in the library, as well as various materials collected by the ancestors of the Blacks.
As the oldest family of pure-blood wizards, they might have left some unknown secrets.
But seeing the expectant expressions of Harry, Ron and the others, he decided to stay first.
Lupin had just talked about Greyback, and he was also a bit curious, wondering what this cruel werewolf was going to do.
Fine! shouted Mrs. Weasley. So, Ginny BED!
Ginny did not go quietly. They could hear her raging and storming at her mother all the way up the stairs.
In the hall, Mrs. Blacks earsplitting shrieks were added to the din. Lupin hurried off to the portrait to restore calm and waited five minutes before returning.
Compared with Sirius, he was relatively conservative, and he also knew where the measure and the bottom line were.
Lupin told them the latest progress, answered Harrys questions, and made everyone clearly aware of the current situation in the wizarding world, but did not reveal the secrets related to the core of the Order of the Phoenix.
No matter what Harry, Fred, and George asked, he didnt say anything, which made Mrs. Weasley look a little better.
Among the information he said, Evan cared about only two aspects.
The first was about what Sirius was doing in Norway. He seemed to have made contact with vampires. He didnt know how Elaine was now and whether Voldemort had helped her and her uncle solve the trouble.
As for the second thing, it was about the werewolf Greyback whod vowed to take revenge on Evan and dig out his heart. He was obviously still obsessed with Evan, and never forgot the humiliation of three years ago.
Lupin told Evan not to leave Hogwarts in the new semester, and not to go to Hogsmeade without company.
He was worried that someone in the school would provide information to Voldemort and Greyback, and an attack similar to three years ago would happen again.
This made Harry, Ron, and Hermione very nervous, but Evan didnt worry much.
He wanted Greyback to come again to find him, and then he would make him pay for what hed done.
Well, Remus, youve told them more than enough! said Mrs. Weasley. Now, I want you all to go straight to bed, no talking. Weve got a busy day tomorrow.
She then said to Hermione, I expect Ginnys asleep, so try not to wake her up.
Asleep, yeah, right, said Fred in an undertone. Thats it.
If Ginnys not lying awake waiting for Hermione to tell her everything they said downstairs, then Im a Flobberworm! said George in a low voice.
Accompanied by Mrs. Weasley, they went upstairs, and Hermione bade them good night on the first landing.
She and Ginny lived on the first floor, Evan, Harry, and Ron were in a room on the second floor, and Fred and George occupied another room on the top floor.
Looking at Hermiones eyes, Evan knew that she had something to say to him, but this occasion was not appropriate.
Evan blinked and shook Hermiones small hand firmly.
He had agreed with Hermione before, and when everyone was asleep, he would use Animagus to deform and sneak out
They could do the same after returning to school later. Two cats wandering in the school didnt have to worry about being spotted.
Their small size ensured that they could move quickly in any terrain, and could get in if there was a hole.
Under Mrs. Weasleys gaze, Evan, Harry, and Ron walked into the room, and she closed the door with a sharp snap.
Evan and Harrys beds had obviously been added, built with magic. But the sheets and beddings above were really brand new, giving a very comfortable feeling.
This looks great! Evan took off his coat and put on his pajamas.
The house-elf cleaned it up. He is very concerned about your two beds, said Ron. Hes never made the mattress for me. There are several empty rooms upstairs, though sometimes members of the Order of the Phoenix stay overnight.
He threw Owl Treats up on top of the wardrobe to pacify Hedwig and Pigwidgeon, who were clattering around and rustling their wings restlessly.
Why dont you let them out? Harry asked, Hedwig will take care of herself.
We cant let them out to hunt every night, Ron explained as he pulled on his maroon pajamas. Dumbledore doesnt want too many owls swooping around the square; he thinks itll look suspicious.
A few minutes later, the three climbed onto their beds. There was only the silvery light of the moon.
What do you reckon about what Lupin said? Harry asked, staring at Evan in a daze, I dont think its of any practical value, is it? He didnt tell us much we couldnt have guessed. We already knew that the Order of the Phoenix is trying to stop people joining Voldemorts army. Thats why Evan, Sirius, and Hagrid went to find the giants a few months ago.
Yeah, youre right! said Ron. We already knew nearly everything he told us, from using the Extendable Ears. Theres nothing new. Mum and Lupin are watertight. Theyre always very careful when talking
There was a silence in the room, and Evan noticed that Harry and Ron were looking at him.
Obviously, they all thought he had new information here and expected him to tell them both.
