Chapter 430: Chaotic Situation

Harry also didn't speak, because he understood a fact even more: even if Evolt was really a trap set by the Chinese, the only way to break this trap was to push Ron to defeat him. As for other plans to compete with Kamen Riders, I am afraid they might not be able to play a role in front of this Rider who is enough to be called a Demon King.

"So, you have to avoid Zhang Qiu with these inside stories." Snape shook his head gently, then grabbed his arm again. "Let's go back to the ward now."

This conversation made Harry's heart heavier, but fortunately, the atmosphere in the ward was already heavy, so he didn't show anything unusual.

Donald was sitting on the chair Snape had originally sat on. The experts had dispersed. He held his forehead with both hands, concealing his expression. Indeed, if Snape hadn't swapped the cup, his series of actions would have become a textbook clown act, and he himself could be called a fool worthy of being put in a museum.

Thinking was thinking, Harry still didn't speak sarcastically, just lowered his head slightly and stood with Ron.

"Disperse, children." A doctor in a white coat walked over, holding a glass bottle in his hand. "She should wake up in two or three days."

Hermione, who had been full of sorrow, looked a bit more spirited now. She followed the doctor's words and left the hospital bed.

"I'll be here, you go back to school." Donald said in a low tone.

They passed the healers who were gathered together pointing and talking at the door, and walked down the stairs without saying a word. Harry saw Sirius and Tonks still sitting in the lobby.

"Let's go, I'll take you back to school." Tonks stood up and said.

Returning to school, Zhang Qiu immediately instigated Ron and Hermione to leave together. Then, almost as soon as she separated from them, she grabbed Harry and walked toward another place.

"What did the professor say to you just now?" Her eyes were shining.

"He told me the ins and outs of the matter," Harry replied flawlessly, "and also said that Donald deliberately took Alina on a boat just to fight Evolt."

"I guessed it was like this." Zhang Qiu sneered. "He wanted to use Evolt's hand to suppress Alina."

"What do you mean?" Harry frowned. This was another direction he had never thought of.

"It is very common to have second thoughts after gaining power. I don't believe Alina would be that honest." She said slowly. "In order to prevent Alina from getting out of control, Donald needs to use a big defeat to hit her confidence, and then use other means to strengthen control."

"Other means?"

"For example, providing equipment and logistics, etc., to let Alina know who her power comes from and who she cannot leave. This is his real purpose." Zhang Qiu looked at the direction where Ron and Hermione left. "Don't you think it's too disadvantageous for wizards and riders to fight with bare hands? Alina will need weapons."

"That's true, but I don't think Alina can compete with the Rider even if she gets a weapon." Harry said with dissatisfaction. "And doing so is undoubtedly strengthening Evolt's strength. I think the plan you mentioned is still very stupid."

"He also wants to test our trump cards." Zhang Qiu shrugged. "If Evolt reaches the Black Hole form, the current Agito is powerless. He wants to force us to take out more things."

"Do you think Evolt can reach the Black Hole form?" Harry frowned and asked. "In the case that we hide the Horcruxes, he should have no chance."

"First of all, one thing is certain. No matter how strong Evolt is, as long as he enters Chinese territory, my Master can suppress him easily. So, the reason he runs around in Europe just reflects what our Rider power is really like. Is there a Rider in China who is strong enough to enforce the law abroad?" Zhang Qiu shook her finger. "Donald put the cup on the line just to know the answer to this question."

"So is there one?"

"Strictly speaking, not for the time being, but there might be in the future." Zhang Qiu shrugged.

"You won't say it's Ron again." Harry was a little speechless. "Don't tell me, in case it goes wrong, China has no bottom-line means!"

"I'm sorry, Master's bottom-line means is that he doesn't dare to return to the country." Zhang Qiu spread her hands very frankly. "All I can do is try my best to help Ron."

"What if it's a gang fight? Cronus has special abilities, right?" Harry was a little anxious. "Didn't you petrify Bellatrix that time?"

"Cronus can't do it either. That immobilization ability can only be used in civil wars. It doesn't work on Evolt." Zhang Qiu sighed. "And Cronus's strength has reached the end, it won't grow anymore."

Harry stared blankly at Zhang Qiu. He didn't want to believe her words, but he didn't want to argue with her—in fact, when he began to doubt China, he had been trying his best to avoid talking about these things with Zhang Qiu this week.

"Relax, these problems can always be solved." Zhang Qiu patted him on the shoulder. "Let's go for a walk in the garden."

Harry could only suppress the worry in his heart, accompanied her out of the castle, and then gradually relaxed in some aimless chats. The relationship between the two returned to a harmonious state again. Unknowingly, night fell, but neither of them had any intention of returning to the castle to eat, but instead began to talk about more private topics.

"What did you say to her?" As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Ron asked impatiently. "Any latest news?"

"Not very important news. Zhang Qiu talked about some future plans. She will stay here after graduation, but she hasn't decided what job to do." Harry didn't mention Donald. "We have been chatting. In fact, she was right. Regardless of whether there is Evolt or not, life has to go on as usual."

"Ah?" Ron was stunned. "She didn't mention any plans, inside stories or anything..."

"You ask directly." Neville interrupted him. "Did you kiss?"

"Yes."

"Why?" Ron yelled. "I lost again?"

"Did you bet on this again?" Harry looked at Ron with dissatisfaction as he put a Knut on the table.

"This is not a bad thing, Ron." Neville said with a smile while collecting money. "Harry didn't have this mind last year because the situation forced him to be burdened with worries, and this year, it's your turn to step forward, so he naturally has the leisure to kiss."

Ron's mood stabilized visibly, and, he also showed a relieved smile. Harry felt that these words were actually very clever, and to some extent, they could strengthen Ron's strength.

"Yes, Ron, I agree with her on one point." Harry patted him on the shoulder. "That is, Saber will eventually defeat Evolt, and we all firmly believe in this point."

Ron scratched his head embarrassedly, and then he sat for a while, then picked up the wooden sword and went to the Room of Requirement. And in the next few days, he showed extraordinary efforts, which once made Harry feel very surprised.

By Thursday, another good news came back, that is, Alina had woken up and basically recovered. She would stay in St. Mungo's Hospital for another day or two, and then if nothing goes wrong, she would come to school to catch up with Hermione on the weekend.

And early Friday morning, Harry and Ron saw a special notice.

Apparition Training: All sixth and seventh-year students are eligible to participate in an Apparition training course taught by a specially appointed instructor. The course will start this Saturday.

If you are willing to participate, please sign your name below.

Fee: 2 Galleons.

"I don't need to guess to know that the specially appointed instructor must be Donald." Ron said happily.

"The possibility of others teaching this course is not ruled out." Harry shrugged, then stood in the queue to sign up. "For example, Alina, you might not believe it, but because of that plan, she is probably the best at Apparition in the world now."

"Ah?" Ron almost moved his feet out of the queue. "I don't want to listen to her class."

"Unfortunately, child, there is a high probability that Miss Kaslana will explain the relevant matters of Apparition for you, because Mr. Fontroy has other things to do." Snape appeared behind them silently. "Come with me, Potter, there is a fairly serious meeting that needs your opinion."

"Ah?" Harry was a little surprised, but still followed Snape's footsteps, while Ron curled his lips and left the queue to sign up silently.

After a whirlwind, Harry found himself at the entrance of the Ministry of Magic, and then they hurried to the elevator and walked down.

"What are we going to do, Professor?" Harry asked.

"You'd better call him 'Deputy Minister' here, Mr. Potter." The big-bellied wizard on the side reminded.

"We are going to the Department of Mysteries," Snape didn't care about these trivial details, "our vampire gentleman... he wants to make progress again."

"Is it Alina's matter that inspired him?" Harry asked vaguely.

"More than inspiration, Donald is also prepared to provide technical support, so he proposed to stay here for a few more days." Snape explained slowly. "However, Donna seems to have other opinions. I think this matter needs you to make a decision, because Donna signed an oath with you."

"Who is the candidate for the new Queen?" Harry asked suddenly.

"Mia."

"I understand." Now, Harry completely understood. In fact, the decision had already been made. He came here just to say the words for Snape that he was not convenient to say in person.

Moreover, if Donald could be stopped from making trouble, and by the way, a teacher of Apparition that Ron could accept could be changed, that would be a good thing for Harry. ===== CHAPTER 431 =====
