321 reasons, plans, maps

In the original timeline, Kingsley only joined the Order of the Phoenix during the Second Wizarding War, while Ted and Andromeda never joined the Order of the Phoenix, only their daughter Nymphadora Don X joined.

But now, they have all become members of the Order of the Phoenix.

Callan had no problem with Kingsley. He was an official Auror. With Moody's guarantee, it was natural for him to join the Order of the Phoenix.

But Ted and Andromeda... As Gideon said, they were too young and had just graduated. It was no different from asking two students to join the Order of the Phoenix.

But if they want to join the Order of the Phoenix, they must get permission from the leader, Dumbledore.

But why would he agree?

From Callan's point of view, this was not a decision that Dumbledore would make. He was the person who best understood the threat of Voldemort and would not allow two children to risk their lives.

Unless... there is some special reason.

On the way back to the castle after leaving the Forbidden Forest, the Quidditch match finally ended. Gryffindor won again, but this made Lily unhappy.

The Prewett brothers who were secretly hiding secret passages in the Forbidden Forest aroused her alertness. In addition, Karan became silent again. He must be thinking about this matter and thinking about it in his heart. What a bad idea.

Lily sadly discovered that their small group was really terrible, even worse than James' group.

At most, those people do some arrogant little things in public, but they always do a lot of big things secretly. No matter which one of them is known by others, they will probably be labeled as naughty and troublesome. .

He might even be considered to have the potential to become a prisoner of Azkaban. After all, secretly preparing a high-level potion like Living Hell Potion is not something a good student would do.

"Ugh."

Lily sighed softly, her expression becoming more bitter.

Snape, who glanced at her quietly, couldn't help but become nervous.

He was afraid that Lily would cry again, like she did in the Forbidden Forest.

But this time, there won't be any unicorn to comfort her.

Snape didn't know how to comfort the other person, because it was obvious that Lily had not forgiven himself and Callan.

"Greyback!"

The sudden cry startled the two of them. Snape jumped up like a convulsion, and Lily whimpered and covered her heart hard.

"Greyback Fenrir!"

Callan was still minding his own business and said: "He appeared in Professor Kettleburn's house. All three Kingsleys went there during the Christmas vacation, but they did not report the news to the Ministry of Magic, otherwise Fenrir would have been captured in Azkaban long ago."

"In order to keep this secret, they joined the Order of the Phoenix. Because they are Aurors stationed in Hogsmeade, it is impossible to completely hide the traces of werewolves from them."

"What about Professor Kettleburn? Will he also join the Order of the Phoenix? After all, this is an accident that happened at his home..."

"As for Fenrir's role - he probably wants to interrogate the mysterious man's plan. He must know more inside stories related to the werewolf uprising."

After thinking about all this, Karan finally breathed out slowly.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked easily.

Lily and Snape were glaring at him.

"Grab his hand!" Lily said coldly.

Snape immediately grasped one of Callan's arms tightly with both palms, and then Lily grasped Callan's other arm tightly.

Karan shook him hard twice but did not break away.

"What's wrong with you?" Karan looked at the two of them, feeling vaguely uncomfortable.

The two didn't answer.

Lily leaned close to Karan's ear, and she suddenly shouted loudly: "Ah——!"

Karan shuddered so hard that he felt like he was going deaf.

At this time, Snape also approached his other ear: "Ah——!"

He shouted louder than Lily.

"What are you crazy about?" Karan said, shaking his head back and forth, but the two immediately clung to each other like plaster, and everyone shouted: "Ah——!"

Wandless magic was applied to the two of them, and Karan picked them up with force, then spun them around in a circle, trying to throw them all out.

But neither of them let go, which just turned "Ah——!" into "Ah——oh——ah!".

The strange scene attracted the attention of many people.

Pandora was wearing an eagle-headed hat. She said with interest: "Their appearance is really strange. Are they creating some kind of spell?"

Lovegood was wearing a strange crown that imitated a crown. He nodded seriously and said, "Maybe it's true. Didn't you notice that Karan picked up two people easily? This must be a mysterious magic ritual. Give him strength.”

Not far away from them, Steve and Gaspard stopped and looked for a while.

"I want to play too." Steve said enviously.

Gaspard pulled him away ruthlessly.

"First think about how to explain Lily's invisibility cloak to Karan when you return to the dormitory tonight, otherwise you will have to play like this every day."

James and others who were just celebrating their victory in the game also stopped. In addition, a Slytherin who seemed out of place appeared in their small group - Regulus.

"Have they reconciled?" Regulus said in surprise: "I remember they went their separate ways a few days ago, and no one talked to each other."

Sirius glanced at Regulus with a strange expression. He didn't understand why Regulus always cared about the affairs of Kahlan's group of people.

"It's so boring!" At this time, James deliberately said loudly: "She didn't watch the exciting game, but instead she was messing around on the playground. Is she a Gryffindor after all?"

This time, Sirius stared at James strangely. He also didn't understand when James started to care about Lily.

"Professor McGonagall is coming soon." Remus suddenly said: "Maybe we should remind them so that they don't get caught by Professor McGonagall."

He looked around at a few people, and Regulus immediately expressed his agreement. Peter also nodded quietly, but James just hummed loudly a few times on purpose, and Sirius also looked at him strangely.

"Are you starting to feel grateful to them?" Sirius asked, "Just because they didn't reveal your furry little secret?"

Remus's pale face turned red for no reason. He glanced at Lily quietly, thinking of how much she cared about him. But when he spoke, he pretended to say: "Don't forget, they He saved us once, in Hogsmeade."

This sentence seemed to offend James. He snorted hard and turned around to leave. Sirius followed him nonchalantly, followed immediately by Peter.

Remus looked at Regulus helplessly, neither of them said a word.

They are not very familiar yet.

While the two were hesitating, Professor McGonagall suddenly appeared with a cry of "Ah-oh-ah!" She looked at the three of them angrily.

"Everyone who makes dangerous moves on the playground will get five points deducted!"

The farce ended with a painless punishment. Although they did not face the threat of the troll together like Harry and the others, after all, the three of them had a good relationship. The experience of being deducted points made them feel better after the farce. The relationship has eased a lot.

Only Karan felt weird in his heart. He always unconsciously compared himself with the trolls - they both seemed to have become an outlet to consolidate the relationship.

As the days passed, Lily came to the potion preparation room more and more often. She often got together with Snape, and the two of them stared at Callan suspiciously, always muttering something.

It didn't take long for Karan to finally understand the reason why they kept talking about him.

One day, Lily summoned everyone in the potion preparation room. As soon as Karan arrived, she pressed her hard on the chair and almost tied him up.

Snape and Lily stood side by side, staring at him with both pairs of eyes. From their malicious expressions, it seemed that they had really planned this, but they had to give up after considering the feasibility.

Steve and Guspar stood aside silently. They had no intention of joining the conversation, but their faces looked like they were watching the show - they were not less affected by the bad news on the night they returned to the dormitory after the game. Karan’s lesson.

Wolf was also lying on his side beside them, looking uninterested.It was just called by Steve to make up the Hufflepuff trio, and Steve had already assigned Wolf to Hufflepuff on his own initiative.

"Go ahead."

Lily finally spoke, clasping her hands on her chest and speaking coldly, like an interrogator.

Karan blinked in confusion: "What did you say?"

Snape suddenly slammed the table hard and said viciously: "You dare to be so harsh!"

Callan was so shocked that he almost gave Snape a blow.But the two seemed to have thought of this in advance, and the distance between them was much longer than Karan's arm.

Steve watched this scene excitedly. He shook Wolf's body vigorously, and Gespad's lenses began to flash.

Lily took out a pamphlet slowly. She glanced at Karan who was confused, and then read: "Order of the Phoenix, Auror, Ministry of Magic, Greyback Fenrir, Kingsley, Tai De, Andromeda, and Professor Kettleburn."

These are the key messages that Karan originally said to himself.

Snape added on the side: "And before that we also discovered Professor Prewett in the Forbidden Forest, which will definitely arouse your curiosity."

"Tell me." He said as if he was confident: "What is your next plan? We won't let you go until you make it clear."

Karan didn't pay any attention to the inexplicable two people. He curiously stared at the pamphlet in Lily's hand.

He originally thought it would be the latest version of "Callan's Defense", but he didn't expect that it said "Callan: From Hogwarts to Azkaban" on the cover.

"What a mess!"

He suddenly jumped up, and Snape, who was too deeply involved in the drama, immediately shouted vigilantly: "Don't resist! Otherwise we will call Dementors!"

Steve winced and blinked: "Dementors? Did they prepare dementors in advance?"

Gaspard calmly pushed up his glasses: "This should be imitating the Ministry of Magic's trial procedure for prisoners."

As soon as he heard this, Karan became even more angry.

Lily was about to put the book away, but she lost her grip and it immediately floated from her hand to Karan.

Karan glanced at what Lily said for a few times, and then the page automatically turned to the first page, which read——

[Karan: From Hogwarts to Azkaban. 】

[The powerful magical talent gives the target the ability to commit crimes. Judging from the various evil deeds he has committed before, the target also has sufficient criminal motives.In order to avoid the negative consequences of letting the target become a member of Azkaban, it must be contained in advance, and all plans of the target must be known and improved at the same time to prevent the target from stepping into the abyss of evil. 】

[Also: If it is really difficult to do, you can consider asking the target to learn the Patronus Charm. Anyway, the target has superb talent for wandless magic. Even if the wand was confiscated in Azkaban, he can still cast the Patronus Charm. This will at least make the target It felt better to be in close contact with dementors. 】

Karan silently read the last few lines, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times.

"You are so considerate." He raised his head and said.

Lily was glaring at him sternly.

"The criminal has seized important evidence!" she shouted: "Now, if you agree with the establishment of the crime, please raise your hands!"

Snape was the first to raise his hand, Lily was the second, and Steve, who was excited to watch the show, also immediately raised his hand. He even wanted to lift Wolf's paw, but he was unable to do so. Within a second, he was pressed down by Gaspard.

"Are you really taking it seriously?" Gaspard asked with a strange look on his face.

Steve still wanted to pull out his palm with force: "There are four people and a moon wolf present. Just two affirmative votes are not enough, at least more than half are needed!"

Under Gespard's suspicious gaze, Steve finally raised his hand happily, but then he was hit hard and his brain collapsed.

"Ouch!"

Callan silently retracted his palm, staring at Lily and Snape expressionlessly until they quietly put their palms down before finally rolling their eyes.

"There's no plan."

As he handed the pamphlet back, he said angrily: "I really should have included your section in the program in the first half of the semester."

Lily silently put the booklet into her pocket. She was still muttering in a low voice: "Isn't this just to familiarize you with it in advance? It is better to have experience than no experience."

Snape expressed his agreement cautiously, and Karan rolled his eyes again - the two of them believed that they would be judged by the Ministry of Magic.

Do they look down upon their ability to escape too much?

Steve watched this scene with tears in his eyes. This was not because he was moved by Lily and Snape's thoughtfulness, but because he was hurt by Callan's beating.

"Hit me alone again..." he said aggrievedly.

Gaspard patted him on the shoulder: "Who told you to join in the fun?"

There were suddenly more tears in Steve's eyes.

He grabbed Wolf's supple tail and rubbed it hard on his face. Only this smooth touch could bring him some comfort in the cold Hogwarts.

Wolf glanced at him helplessly, and then he lay down in boredom and yawned lazily.

Lily and Snape finally stopped pretending, but their eyes were still full of suspicion when they looked at Karan, and they obviously didn't believe Karan's so-called "no plan" statement.

"Okay." Karan said helplessly: "At least not for the time being, and I hope there won't be any in the future."

After speaking inexplicably, he took something out of his pocket and flattened it on the table.

Several people looked over curiously - it was a blank piece of old parchment.

"Come and take a look at this." Karan said: "If this problem can be solved, then there is really no need for me to return to Hogsmeade Village again."

He took out the ash wand, pointed the tip of the wand at the parchment in the sight of several people, and read aloud: "I solemnly swear that I will do no evil."

Karan still used the original password. After all, the Marauder's Map was not originally used to do good things, and Karan didn't think he was a person who would use it to do good things.

In an instant, thin ink lines spread like a spider web from the place where the tip of Karan's wand touched, connecting with each other, criss-crossing, and expanding to every corner of the parchment; then words appeared on the top, in green In large squiggles: [A gifted wizard, an unusual person, the dean of the Antonine House, the nightmare of the Acromantula, the terminator of the basilisk, a born Hufflepuff, the cardinal's favorite student . 】

【Introducing】

【Marauder's Map】

Several people looked at the rows of titles with strange expressions, and Steve couldn't help but ask: "Are these all about you?"

Karan coughed twice in embarrassment. He waved his magic wand and covered up the text: "It can be changed. We will write our code names later."

Gaspar said abruptly: "Then a piece of parchment is not enough."

Lily couldn't help laughing, and Karan glared at Gaspard.

"Take a good look at what's on the paper," Karan said, tapping the parchment.

Only then did a few people notice that the Marauder's Map was filled with tiny black lines that looked like swimming tadpoles, constantly moving around.

No wonder a few people didn't notice it before, this portrait is really incredible.

"The Marauder's Map?" Snape asked confused: "Where is the map? Why are there only these black lines?"

Karan said helplessly: "Because of lack of time, I only drew these things."

"Then what are these black lines?" Lily asked curiously.

"It's the stairs." Karan gently smoothed the folds of the parchment with his palm: "There are all movable stairs from the basement of Hogwarts Castle to the tower, a total of 142."

"And all the stairs on the map are synchronized with those in reality, every one of them. This took a lot of thought on my part."

"As for why I do this..."

Before anyone could ask questions, Karan raised his head and said, "I suspect that there is a magic wand gesture hidden in the movement of these stairs, which is the legacy left by the founder, Ms. Ravenclaw."

Several people were shocked by Karan's words, especially Guspard - his eyes showed great interest, not only for the curse hidden in the Marauder's Map, but also for the Marauder's Map itself. .

Callan showed this map generously, because just like he answered Lily and Snape - he really had no plan, at least not yet.

Whatever Dumbledore and the werewolves were trying to do, Callan was reluctant to risk returning to Hogsmeade and get involved.

But there is a premise for all this - that is, he has to figure out what the magic spell of using the crown is.

But if it fails... Callan won't be able to ask Dumbledore directly, and there may be only one person left who he can turn to.

The life the diadem saved - Ariana Dumbledore.
