Chapter 1482

Hermione hadn't cried for a few days.

She had started reading the storybook Dumbledore gave her again.

Harry felt a fairy tale wasn't worth reading so many times.

But he didn't dare say so.

Furthermore, he was currently thinking about how to get Hermione to agree to go to Godric's Hollow with him.

After thinking for such a long time, Harry believed that Godric's Hollow, which Darren had told them to go to from the very beginning, had become their only choice.

Darren had been saying to go to this place; he thought perhaps there might be some plan there.

Darren must have remembered these words all along, and he hinted to them in front of Phineas's portrait; maybe there really was a problem!

"Hermione, I think we..."

"Come, Harry, look at this, what do you think this is?"

Hermione pointed to a symbol in the book.

There was a triangular eye with a vertical line in the middle of the pupil.

"It looks a lot like a symbol from Ancient Runes class..."

Hermione said hesitantly.

Harry looked at it for a long time, and suddenly he said: "That's it... I heard this is Grindelwald's mark..."

"What? Are you sure?"

Hermione asked hurriedly.

Harry nodded.

"Darren once told me... I also forgot exactly when.

He said this symbol represents Grindelwald, and also said he had accepted some of Grindelwald's subordinates... He thought those people had changed for the better..."

Hermione frowned.

"How could he be so trusting of others? If... forget it, he was always very easy to trust others.

We should be talking about this now. You say, why would Grindelwald's mark appear in a storybook?

And, did Scrimgeour discover this mark at the time? If he discovered it, why didn't he think it was unusual?"

Hermione asked hesitantly.

Harry naturally didn't know.

He only wanted to talk about going to Godric's Hollow now.

"Um, Hermione, I think we should go to Godric's Hollow..."

"Yes, I've been thinking about this too."

Hermione said absentmindedly.

Harry thought she hadn't understood.

He still wanted to explain.

Hermione stopped him.

"I know what you mean. I've also been thinking about every word Darren said at the time. He said to go to Godric's Hollow...

At the time, he might have just had a small idea, wanting to go see your home.

But after he returned to school, he tried to pass messages to us through Phineas, so this matter might also have been something he thought about.

We have to go to Godric's Hollow. After we go, we can notify Phineas that we have arrived at Godric's Hollow.

We hide there... If Death Eaters come, we leave immediately; if it's another situation, that means we bet correctly!"

Harry's heart started beating.

Hermione's words made a surge of excitement rise in his heart.

Darren was guiding them; although Darren wasn't by their side, they weren't without a clue.

Hermione was making a plan on the side.

"We must use Polyjuice Potion the whole way, and also bring the Invisibility Cloak, it's best to keep turning into other people along the way..."

"Finally, we'd better make a Portkey so we can leave at any time."

Harry had originally planned to go the next day.

But Hermione didn't agree.

She believed that whether they told Phineas they were in Godric's Hollow or not, there would be many defenses there.

They had to be prepared.

She spent a whole week preparing.

Finally, on Christmas Day, they were ready.

Harry was disguised as a middle-aged man.

Hermione was disguised as an ordinary child.

The two of them walked on the road under the Invisibility Cloak.

It snowed that day.

Their footprints were all over the ground.

Hermione frowned as she looked at their footprints.

"I should have chosen another day... I only thought a snowy day would be better for hiding, but forgot about the footprints... We should have erased the footprints!"

"No need, let's take off the Invisibility Cloak first.

As long as we are standing, we will definitely have footprints.

Now that we are disguised as other people, they aren't sure we are coming today, don't be too agitated, scaring yourself.

We'll find a dark place, the night can hide the footprints... then we'll call Phineas."

Harry said thoughtfully.

Hermione thought about it.

She relaxed her wand.

They crawled out from under the Invisibility Cloak.

Harry looked at the scene before him; these were houses after houses.

He and Hermione passed by these houses.

He was guessing which house was his home.

When they walked to the square, they found that the ground here had been stepped on until it was slippery and hard, and wouldn't leave any footprints at all.

"Hermione, call him out!"

Harry said softly.

Hermione's face was a bit pale.

The two of them crawled under the Invisibility Cloak, enduring the erosion of the cold, and then they took out Phineas's portrait.

"What are you calling me out for again?

You don't tell me where you are, and you don't allow me to ask you questions, you... wait, you actually didn't cover my eyes!"

Phineas looked at their surroundings in shock.

"This is, this is the location of Godric's Hollow, I have been here before... truly nostalgic!

Of course, you let me know your location, who do you want me to tell this news to?"

Hermione immediately squeezed out a sweet smile and said.

"Please tell this news to Darren, I beg you!"

"Hmph, little girl! You finally trust me?

He did ask me to ask for your address, but... have you ever thought about what he can do?"

"We don't know either, but I think Darren must have considered everything!"

Harry said seriously.

"We know you must have a way to tell him this news as soon as possible," Hermione said with a smile.

Phineas snorted.

"That kid had Filch, that Squib, steal my portrait from the school corridor into his dormitory.

He is just like you, also sneaking around to have me pass messages.

If you had let me pass messages for you earlier, maybe you wouldn't have to endure hunger and cold like this!"

Phineas said sarcastically.
