Chapter 189: John's News

"Phew... why, would Dementors appear here..."

Harry and Sirius returned to their small home on Privet Drive, supporting each other.

Then Harry asked Sirius with confusion and worry.

Following Voldemort's resurrection, he had spent two months in peace.

He didn't expect that just now, Dementors would suddenly appear in the Muggle community and attack him and Sirius.

This afternoon, they originally went out for a walk together, but when they passed a park, the sky suddenly darkened.

The sultry air suddenly became cold, and feeling something was wrong, they were just about to leave that place.

When they were ambushed by Dementors that suddenly appeared in the sky.

Sirius, as a ten-year tenant of Azkaban, was patronized by two Dementors for the first time, losing his ability to resist.

Harry was also attacked by another Dementor in a moment of unpreparedness.

Fortunately, he used the Patronus Charm at the critical moment, forcing back the surrounding Dementors.

Successfully saved Sirius, and then joined forces with Sirius to repel all the Dementors.

After that, they hurried back to Privet Drive, intending to report this sudden incident.

"I don't know either, report this matter to Dumbledore first."

Sirius rubbed his temples and said with a weak face.

Being invaded by two Dementors one after another, he now had a splitting headache.

Harry nodded, immediately went to get paper and pen, and reported the accident that just happened to Dumbledore in detail.

Just before he could hand the letter to Hedwig to send, an owl suddenly flew in through the window.

It hurriedly dropped a letter with the Ministry of Magic's emblem stamped in wax, and then flapped its wings and disappeared into the night quickly.

The recipient written on the envelope was Harry Potter.

Harry looked at Sirius, then opened the letter from the Ministry of Magic.

The content of the letter was very simple: because he violated the regulations on casting spells outside of school as an underage wizard, he was now expelled from Hogwarts and would go to the Ministry of Magic to accept a trial.

Harry looked at this letter in disbelief, not knowing whether to be angry or worried for a while.

Clearly, he was walking on the street properly when he was suddenly attacked by Dementors.

Then he defended himself and saved Sirius, and now he was accused of violating school rules?

Sirius saw that Harry's face was wrong, so he snatched the letter away and scanned the content of the letter quickly.

Then he slammed the letter paper on the table, anger burning in his eyes, and for a while, even his headache disappeared.

"Bastard! Fudge is just taking the opportunity to retaliate!"

"Don't worry Harry, tell Dumbledore about this situation now, he definitely won't let you be expelled."

Harry nodded, intending to pick up the letter again and add the letter he just received.

But before he could start writing, another owl flew in.

This letter was for Sirius.

It's just that before Sirius could open it, the letter flew up automatically, and the mouth of the letter opened like a human mouth to speak.

"Sirius, bring Potter to the Order of the Phoenix immediately!"

The voice was hoarse and carried a trace of urgency; it was the voice of Mad-Eye Moody.

Hearing Moody's words, Harry and Sirius looked at each other, realizing that something might have happened. 【

They didn't pack much luggage, just grabbed their wands and the Invisibility Cloak before heading out.

The Order of the Phoenix.

A secret organization founded by Dumbledore, aimed at opposing Voldemort and his followers.

The headquarters of this society had always been a mystery; neither the Ministry of Magic nor the Death Eaters had been able to discover its location.

Only if Dumbledore told you the exact location could you find and enter it.

Time had reached the night.

Sirius and Harry suddenly appeared at 11 Grimmauld Place, then abruptly vanished from the street, as if entering an invisible rift.

This was Harry's second time coming to the Order of the Phoenix headquarters; the first was when Dumbledore had written him and Sirius a note with the Order's address.

This place was actually the old family home of the Blacks.

Which was to say, Sirius's old home.

It was the property Sirius had provided to Dumbledore as a base when the Order of the Phoenix was first established.

Inside the old house were many portraits and relics of the Black family, everywhere exuding the stale air of pure-blood supremacy.

And because it had been left uncleaned for a long time, the house was covered in dust and cobwebs, with the air filled with a musty smell and the pungent scent of aged magical residue.

Although a Black family house-elf had been living there all along, that elf was perpetually immersed in the relics of its old masters and held hostility toward any intruders.

It would only curse traitors and Mudbloods at the air, making the rooms messier and messier, unable to manage even basic hygiene.

When Harry and Sirius entered, they saw the Weasley twins eavesdropping at the door of the meeting room, along with Harry's good brother Ron.

"Harry! You're here!"

Ron was the first to notice Harry and Sirius, immediately shouting excitedly while running toward Harry.

"I heard you were attacked by Dementors. How are you now? Are you alright?"

Ron stepped forward to grab Harry's shoulders, saying this while worriedly looking him up and down.

"I'm fine, Ron."

Seeing his good brother, Harry, who had been worried the whole way, felt his mood improve significantly and said with a smile.

"By the way, what's the situation now? What are you eavesdropping on outside the meeting room for?"

Ron was just about to answer when the door to the meeting room behind them suddenly opened.

Because their voices had drawn attention from inside the meeting room.

They saw Mrs. Weasley, Professor McGonagall, Mad-Eye Moody, and even Professor Lupin, who had left a year ago, were all there.

"Harry, we already know about you being attacked by Dementors."

"Don't worry about being expelled; Albus will help you resolve it."

Professor McGonagall was the first to walk up, patting Harry's shoulder to comfort him.

Hearing these words, Harry's tense shoulders finally relaxed, but he was immediately stunned by Professor McGonagall's next sentence.

"But we need you to go to the Ministry of Magic with Sirius now; Dumbledore has already gone over there."

Sirius, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up.

"I feel like the focus of what you're discussing now isn't about me and Harry. What exactly happened?"

Hearing this, Professor McGonagall and the others exchanged glances before speaking slowly.

"Actually, John was also attacked by a Dementor, and he even captured a Dementor on the spot."

Upon hearing the first half, both Harry and Sirius were shocked, not expecting that John had also encountered a Dementor.

But hearing the second half, they were stunned again.

What did it mean to capture a Dementor on the spot?

Shouldn't that thing just be driven away?

Harry and Sirius looked at each other after hearing this, filled with both confusion and surprise, but still asked curiously.

"Then what does that have to do with us going to the Ministry of Magic?"

"Shouldn't it be the Ministry of Magic's people going to retrieve the Dementor?"

Speaking of this, Professor McGonagall didn't quite know how to put it, feeling rather embarrassed.

That child John was truly too reckless...

"... There were indeed Ministry of Magic people who went to the scene, it's just, it was a bit different from what we thought..."

"Hermione wrote in a letter that John directly subdued the Ministry of Magic people, and then personally escorted the Dementor and the Ministry people to the Ministry of Magic to demand an explanation..."
