By the way, Kyle's box is so big that even a fire dragon can be put in it. During the Quidditch World Cup, they entered this box once to avoid Death Eaters. At that time, Ron was still trapped in the box. Did the fire dragon faint from fright?
This time should be the same as that time.
While he was thinking about this, Mr. Weasley explained beside him: "Originally we wanted to take you to appear, but Kyle just came back from handling some things. His magical box is more convenient and more important. It won't reveal your presence.
"He will then take you back to Number Twelve Grimmauld Place."
"Okay." Harry nodded subconsciously. But soon he thought that there was a fire dragon in the box.
I still remember those fire dragons during the Triwizard Tournament that could spray fire dozens of feet away. Harry's legs stopped as soon as he stepped out.
As luck would have it, Kyle also reminded them at this time: "By the way, don't run around after you go in, just stay in the room at the entrance, and especially don't open that door."
"I know, there are..." Harry glanced at Moody and Kingsley and shut his mouth abruptly.
He almost forgot that raising fire dragons was forbidden, and Kingsley happened to be an Auror.
"More than that." Kyle shook his head, "There are a few faster little guys inside, and they are very territorial, and they are not familiar with you. If I were not with you, they would probably treat you as a enemy."
Hearing Kyle say this, Harry suddenly didn't want to get into the box, seemingly out of some instinct.
In fact, it is good for the follower to reveal himself. At worst, he can wear an invisibility cloak to prevent himself from being exposed.
But before Harry could say anything, someone pushed him from behind.
"Come on, Harry, if you have any questions, we'll explain them to you when it's safe," Hermione said.
She knew Harry too well, and naturally knew what the other person was thinking. In order not to waste time, she stepped forward and pushed Harry.
Harry stumbled, one foot just happened to land on the box, and then he rolled down uncontrollably.
"Boom!"
There was a dull crashing sound and the sound of things being knocked over from the box.
"Remember, the house is safe. And no matter what you hear, don't open the door."
Kyle reminded him again, then stuffed the luggage and the owl in again, and then closed the box.
There was a burst of messy footsteps outside the door. It was the office worker who had left before and the man dressed in a nondescript manner. They were running towards this side quickly.
"The action begins, fast!" Moody said, and Hermione was the first to close her eyes and disappear with a snap.
Then Bill, Fred, and George all apparated out of the house at the same time.
Kyle was placed in the middle order. He picked up the box on the ground, glanced at the others, and said, "We'll see you at Grimmauld Place."
Then he disappeared in place.
When he showed up again, the originally tidy room had turned into a garage full of dust and cobwebs.
"You're finally here. You didn't encounter any trouble."
Charlie ran over and gave Kyle a broom, "This is your Firebolt. Move quickly. I'll take the rear."
"Okay." Kyle didn't waste any time. After completing his invisibility, he rushed out of the abandoned garage on his broomstick.
The Firebolt was very fast, and in almost less than a minute, he saw the familiar Grimmauld Place.
The door to No. 12 had been opened in advance, and Kyle rushed in without slowing down.
When she saw Kyle, Mrs. Weasley, who was still very nervous, suddenly became excited.
As a member of the team involved in formulating the action plan, she knew that Kyle was responsible for taking Harry this time. Now that Kyle was here, it meant that Harry was here too.
"Where's Harry?" Hagrid asked eagerly.
"Here." Kyle took out the box and opened it.
Harry immediately poked his head out and looked around subconsciously.
"Mrs. Weasley?"
"That's great." Mrs. Weasley stepped forward and hugged Harry, almost crying with excitement, "Thank God, you are safe."
A minute later, Charlie came back. He looked fine, not even his clothes were dirty.
"How about it?"
"It's very safe. There's not a single Death Eater behind." Charlie said with a smile, "This plan was so successful."
"Yes, the plan was successful." Kyle smiled.
Another five minutes passed before Sirius returned via the portkey.
Although this kind of thing is used regularly and is not as convenient as apparating in case of emergency, it is more safe. It is difficult to be traced as long as it is not reported to the Ministry of Magic, so it is very suitable for returning.
Sirius whirled and landed on the ground. As soon as he entered the door, he started to look around. He was relieved when he saw Harry chatting with Hagrid.
"How are you doing there?" Kyle asked.
"It's not bad." Sirius said, throwing an empty can aside. "The Death Eaters probably thought that Harry wouldn't go to Diagon Alley, so they didn't follow him."
"Really?" Kyle smiled unnaturally and said nothing more.
Afterwards, others came back one after another.
The strange thing is that no one seems to have encountered an enemy, and everyone is intact.
Fred and George happily celebrated the success of their plan, and Harry was also very happy and greeted everyone.
But Kyle frowned.
He felt something was wrong just now...the plan went a little too smoothly, as smoothly as if their previous preparations were all a joke.
No matter how good the Death Eaters are, they can't make any movement at all. This is too wrong.
Kyle even had the illusion that it would be okay even if they walked over with Harry in a big way.
But at this time, others were happily celebrating Harry's arrival. Kyle thought about it and didn't say anything.
……
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 776 The real goal of the Death Eaters
Kyle always hoped that he was overthinking.
Because news came later that whether it was Little Whinging or Privet Drive, there were only two Death Eaters from the beginning, the two who were lured away by Tonks... or rather they were not even Death Eaters. Not really.
After everyone left, Tonks returned to Privet Drive with a few Aurors and arrested them. No Death Eaters came to help during this period.
Through interrogation, it was revealed that they were in Cornwall a few days ago, and later wanted to join the Death Eaters because they admired Voldemort.
Monitoring Harry Potter was the first task they received. In other words, these two people were just two free cannon fodder. They knew nothing, and they didn’t even know what to look for when they discovered an unexpected situation. Who reports.
Because no one has contacted them since arriving at Privet Drive.
No wonder everyone was safe and the Death Eaters didn't go there at all... Whether they were planning a route or using the portkey to return, they were all fighting against the air.
Now it wasn't just Kyle, everyone else also noticed something was wrong. The originally lively atmosphere suddenly became deserted after Tonks finished speaking. Everyone was thinking about something.
"It is not good?"
Ron didn't take it seriously and said happily: "It means that the false news we sent out worked. The mysterious person must have thought that we would not take Harry away until the 30th."
Mundungus nodded beside him, thinking the same thing. In his opinion, it was good if there was no danger. Why bother with so much else?
But no one responded to him except Mundungus.
Because almost everyone present had dealt with Death Eaters, they knew very well that if Voldemort really wanted to attack Harry, there would be no way that there would be no movement at all until now.
Even if they were deceived by false news released in advance, they would react immediately in a short period of time.
After all, Death Eaters are bad, but not stupid.
It was already half an hour before the end of the operation. If their ability to adapt was really slow to this point, they would have been captured by the Ministry of Magic and kept company with the dementors.
"No matter what, it's good that Harry is safe." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, Mrs. Weasley said quickly.
She glanced at the time, "Oh my god, is it so late? I guess you're all starving, right?"
Then she took everyone to the restaurant and prepared to divert everyone's attention with dinner.
It's just that before that, she didn't have much thought to prepare dinner. If it was to be cooked now, she was a little pressed for time, so she could only make some simple sandwiches.
But no one had much appetite. Mr. Weasley, Kingsley, Mad-Eye Moody and several other adults sat there, drinking one glass after another, with the same worry in their eyes.
Although nothing was said, Kyle knew what they were thinking.
...Dumbledore.
The Death Eaters gave up their actions here only because there were more important reasons, such as besieging Dumbledore who was alone.
Now Dumbledore is abroad, with almost no helpers, and the best chance to kill him.
As long as he can be killed, Voldemort will have no opponent at all. When he comes back, he can run sideways here. Whether it is controlling the Ministry of Magic or attacking Hogwarts, he no longer needs to worry about anything.
Looking at it this way, it really doesn't seem to matter what happens to Harry.
……
To be honest, Kyle actually wanted to help, but he had no idea where Dumbledore had gone, nor did Professor McGonagall and others in the Order of the Phoenix.
The only good thing now is that Dumbledore still has Fawkes with him.
The Phoenix can help Dumbledore resist a life-killing curse, and can also take him away from the battlefield instantly in critical moments. Even if he really can't be defeated, escaping is definitely no problem... I hope it's okay.
I don’t know what happened, but Kyle suddenly thought of Nurmengard again...
He shook his head, picked up a sandwich and stuffed it into his mouth, trying to calm down.
If Voldemort really went to Nurmengard, there would be no need to worry. Grindelwald and Dumbledore would join forces, and they would probably be able to hang all the Death Eaters and Voldemort on the tower for decoration.
Thinking of this, Kyle took a deep breath and started eating his dinner.
But others were still not in the mood. A bottle of firewhiskey was quickly drunk. Sirius was about to open the second bottle, but was stopped by Mr. Weasley. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, we need stay awake."
Sirius could only give up.
What he said made sense. No matter what the Death Eaters' plan was, they had to stay awake to deal with what might happen at any time.
If you can't drink, you can only use drinks instead. Hot cocoa, pumpkin juice, milk and the like were all found.
Everyone was sitting at the dining table, but no one knew what they were waiting for. It might be Dumbledore, or it might be something else, but no one took the initiative to ask for information.
