Chapter 793 Dumbledore's New Nickname

Soon, Kyle returned to the upstairs room with twenty bottles of liquor.

"What is this?" Fred asked in confusion, looking at the big package in Kyle's hand.

"Good stuff, you should feel better after drinking it later." Kyle said.

Hearing this, Fred felt his stomach churning again.

"If we have to go back now, can I be the last one in line?"

"I really don't want to Apparate again in a short time."

"Don't worry, we will use the door key this time." Kyle took out the dirty glass.

Under his arrangement, everyone formed a circle to ensure that everyone could touch the cup with one finger.

As for the unconscious Tonks couple, they will stay here, and Nymphadora Tonks will be responsible for sending them to the Hogwarts Hospital for treatment.

They were just attacked by the Death Eaters, and they dared not take the two wounded to St. Mungo's, so the closer Hogwarts Hospital became the best choice.

This was also done when a member of the Order of the Phoenix was injured before, and Madam Pomfrey was used to working overtime occasionally during the holidays.

"My dear, I am the only one left here, you must go back with them." Tonks glanced at Lupin, kissed his cheek, and then turned to look at the others.

"Hurry up, George." She reminded him, and a dazzling blue light had already appeared on the cup. George hurriedly pressed his index finger on it.

It was as if an invisible hook behind the stomach suddenly hooked forward, and everyone's feet left the dirty floor and disappeared on the second floor of the Hog's Head.

Kyle felt dizzy, and his fingers were tightly stuck to the door key, but compared with the Phoenix's Apparition, this degree could only be regarded as a merry-go-round in the amusement park.

A few seconds later, everyone's feet landed heavily on the ground, but no one fell, and everyone landed smoothly.

Number 12 Grimmauld Place has arrived.

Mrs. Weasley ran over excitedly and hugged Fred and George.

Chris also came, looking nervous, until Kyle looked over, his expression relaxed a little.

He was followed by Mr. Weasley, Alastor, Kingsley and a man wearing a hood and cloak, who must have received the news.

Godric's Hollow is home to many wizards, and something so big happened there, someone must have told the Ministry of Magic about it.

But Kyle didn't look at them, but cast his eyes on the man whose appearance he couldn't see clearly.

To be honest, this man's dress is very similar to that of a Death Eater, the only difference is that there are more symbols made of gold thread on the black cloak.

When Kyle went to the Ministry of Magic for questioning before, this style of clothes was the work clothes of the Department of Mysteries, and his mother Diana wore this kind of robe at that time.

But Kyle was sure that the person in front of him was definitely not Diana. Although he couldn't see her face, her height and body shape didn't match.

"This is the Silent Man." Chris seemed to see Kyle's confusion and took the initiative to explain: "Your mother is very worried about you, but for some reason, she can't leave the Department of Mysteries, so her colleague, the only Silent Man who can currently contact the outside world, can come out to check the situation."

"If that's the case..." Kyle nodded, and just when he was about to say something, he turned around and the Silent Man disappeared.

No sound was made, and no one knew how the other party disappeared, as if what they just saw was just a phantom.

"Don't make a fuss, they are always like this, mysterious." Chris said.

"What is the Department of Mysteries doing?" Kyle couldn't help asking, "Can't they even come out?"

"I don't know." Chris shook his head and lowered his voice, "But I heard, just heard, there are several doors in the Department of Mysteries. Whenever there is a major event outside, such as a war, those doors will become particularly unstable."

"So what's in there?"

"I don't know." Chris blurted out, "Except for the Silent Man, no one knows.

"And your mother never told me these things, including what I just said, I heard from others."

"Who?"

"Xenophilius."

"Who are you talking about?" Kyle was stunned for a moment, thinking he had heard it wrong.

"Xenophilius Lovegood." Chris said again, "Have you forgotten? Luna's father also lives in St. Catchpole Village. You have met him."

"Of course I haven't forgotten. "Kyle rubbed his forehead, and some ideas that had just been brewing disappeared in an instant.

"But didn't he say before that the Department of Mysteries was specifically for making poisons for Fudge to help him deal with those opponents?"

"But now Fudge is no longer the Minister." Chris looked around and lowered his voice again, "And I think what he said makes sense, remember? The Department of Mysteries really has some very mysterious doors."

"Yeah." Kyle laughed dryly twice.

Compared with helping Fudge poison to get rid of his opponents, this statement is indeed very normal, and it can even be said that it is so normal that it doesn't seem like something that should be in "The Quibbler".

To be honest, Kyle didn't know whether this remark was made by Xenophilius to Chris, or whether it was new content he wrote in "The Quibbler".

If it is the latter, then Kyle can only say that Xenophilius has fallen. He gave up his consistent persistence and lofty ideals, and fell from the boundless clouds back to the solid ground.

How could such logical content appear in "The Quibbler"? How sad would its loyal readers be if they saw it? Wouldn't this cause trouble for St. Mungo's?

By the way, the best-selling place for "The Quibbler" is St. Mungo's, or more precisely, the Department of Mental Magic Treatment and Comprehensive Recovery Research under the Department of Magical Injury of St. Mungo's.

Because the therapist accidentally discovered that reading "The Quibbler" can calm down wizards who have been injured by mental magic, and can also temporarily show the same thinking logic as normal wizards.

Although they don't know the principle, they still buy several sets of magazines every month, some for reading, some for research, and the rest for wall coverings.

It is said that the walls of several wards are covered with articles cut from "The Quibbler" intact.

As for the effect, Kyle didn't know, but there must be a reason why they can stick to this tradition for so long.

At the same time, Mrs. Weasley had brought everyone else into the house.

She looked very happy. No one was missing, and the number of people was the same as when they set out in the morning.

"Today is worth celebrating." She said with a smile: "I'll go prepare supper."

Mrs. Weasley went to the kitchen. Others wanted to help, but they were all driven out by her.

Based on Kyle's understanding of Mrs. Weasley, she probably wanted to find a place where no one was alone for a while.

What happened today was really too exciting for her. It can be said that except for Percy in St. Mungo's and Arthur who returned to the Ministry of Magic in advance, the rest of the Weasley family was at the wedding.

When she saw Bellatrix and the Death Eaters behind them, who were almost three times more than them, Mrs. Weasley felt that the sky had fallen.

If the Phoenix hadn't appeared in time to take them to a safe place, she couldn't imagine what would happen next.

Until now, she hasn't recovered. Kyle noticed before that her hands were shaking slightly.

The same thing happened to Mr. Weasley. After Kyle distributed the wine bought from the Hog's Head to everyone, he tried three times before pulling out the cork.

For a moment, no one spoke.

Even the most noisy Fred and George sat there quietly, each holding a bottle of wine in their hands, drinking it in big gulps, as if it was a potion that could stabilize the mind, and also to suppress the dizziness that had not disappeared yet.

As for the younger Ginny and Hermione who didn't like drinking, Kyle made them a special drink, half a cup of water and half a cup of vinegar, plus the juice squeezed from three lemons with skin.

Because they didn't see the production process, when Kyle brought this thing to the two of them, they were quite happy.

"What is this?" Ginny asked curiously.

"Special lemonade." Kyle turned his head slightly, "According to my experience, the most effective way to relieve the dizziness caused by Apparition is to drink something with a strong sour taste, followed by strong liquor."

"Thank you." Hermione said.

"Well... you're welcome." Kyle said, "Try it."

"Can I have a cup of this too?" Ron suddenly said at this time.

Although he has reached the age to drink, he really doesn't like the taste of whiskey and brandy. In comparison, lemonade is easier to accept.

"Of course, no problem." Kyle found a few smaller cups and distributed some, "Harry, do you want some?"

"Ah, no, thank you." Harry shook his head and said.

Although he doesn't like strong liquor, he also doesn't like sour things.

"Okay then." Kyle returned the lemonade to Ginny. Because it was too uncomfortable, she took it up and took a sip without any hesitation.

The next second, a sour and bitter taste rushed straight to the top of her head along her tongue.

Ginny's facial features were all wrinkled together.

"Why, is it hard to drink?" Ron suddenly stopped the cup he raised to his mouth and asked with a suspicious look.

"No, it's not bad at all, it's sweet." Ginny's face, which was still wrinkled just now, quickly opened up, and she tried to pretend that nothing had happened. In order to prove to Ron that she was not lying, she even took another sip.

"Then why are you so weird?" Ron did not doubt him, and decisively brought the cup to his mouth and took a big sip.

Then...

"Oh... so sour!" Ron's face also wrinkled, and his facial features were squeezed together, looking like a cabbage stepped on by a unicorn.

"Oh... why is it still so bitter!"

"Because there is lemon peel." Kyle tried not to laugh, "Drink it, it's okay, and it's good for you."

"Absolutely not." Ron shook his head firmly, "Ginny, you actually lied to me."

"What did I lie to you about?" Ginny glanced at him.

"You told me this stuff tastes good."

"It tastes good."

"Then take another sip." Ron said angrily, "I'll believe you if you take another sip."

"Why should I ask you to believe me?" Ginny said calmly, "I feel much better now and don't want to drink it, is that okay?"

"You..." Ron got even angrier, his face flushed.

But what he didn't know was that what Ginny said was true. After taking a second sip of lemonade, she did feel better, and the ubiquitous dizziness gradually disappeared.

Although he has not fully recovered, he is at least much more comfortable than before.

Ron naturally didn't feel this way because he spit out everything in his mouth.

The two of them just sat at the dinner table, glaring at each other across Harry.

However, due to their commotion, the atmosphere at the dinner table relaxed a lot, and everyone was not as nervous as before.

"Today was really thrilling." Kingsley was the first to say, "If we had known that something like this would happen, we shouldn't have gone back to the Ministry of Magic before."

"It's just because I didn't expect it." Sirius had finished a whole bottle of whiskey and was opening the second bottle. "I still haven't figured out how they knew that Remus was going to marry Nymphadora. Obviously we only told a few people, and they were all our own."

"Maybe someone let it slip." Chris thought for a while, "It could also be that the Death Eaters have long been eyeing those people close to us. Capture Andromeda and Ted, and follow their movements It's actually not difficult to deduce the location of Godric's Hollow, just a bottle of Veritaserum or Legilimency."

"We didn't think carefully this time." Lupine lowered his head, "We should be more cautious."

"No, I am also responsible." Sirius said, "After knowing that Dumbledore was coming, I subconsciously relaxed my vigilance around me. If I could be more cautious, I might be able to discover the Death Eaters in advance. traces.”

"No, no, after all, we shouldn't leave early..."

Several people shared the responsibilities at the table.

But in Kyle's opinion, this matter was ultimately Dumbledore's fault. Who made him show his face, give others the illusion that he was there, and then slip away without saying a word.

There is nothing wrong with taking the blame for this irresponsible behavior.

"And Kyle!" Sirius suddenly turned his head and said, and Kyle looked over subconsciously.

"Why did you let the Phoenix send me away first!" His eyes turned slightly red. "You told Fred that Dumbledore asked the Phoenix to save everyone, but I don't think so."

"I……"

"No need to explain, I can tell that you are directing the Phoenix's actions, and it was precisely because of your request that it turned back and caught me."

"not me……"

"Have you ever thought about how much I would blame myself if you failed to come back this time? Asking a child to buy time for me... How shameful would I be to see Chris again?"

Kyle, who was interrupted twice in a row, said nothing again. He didn't cough lightly until he was sure that Sirius had finished speaking.

"Finished?"

"Actually, what I want to say is that I can apparate without the help of the Phoenix... Do you remember? When I took you out of the encirclement."

As he spoke, Kyle stretched out his hand and pointed to the ring on his finger.

However, after three uses of Apparition, the color of the ring has become very dim. In addition, it is close to the finger, making it difficult to spot without looking carefully.

"That won't work either." Sirius said with a stiff neck, "I have to stay behind you."

"Ah, okay." Kyle didn't refute, "Next time, definitely next time."

"It's better not to have another time." Chris said to help smooth things over. He also looked at Kyle and asked solemnly: "So what did you do after sending Sirius away?"

"It's nothing," Kyle said. "I gave them a little surprise and then left."

His tone was very relaxed, and he deliberately concealed the news about Voldemort.

"Surprise?" Chris raised his eyebrows, "What you call a surprise doesn't mean killing all seventy Death Eaters."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire restaurant fell silent instantly. Everyone looked at Kyle in disbelief. Even Mrs. Weasley in the kitchen ran out, her pupils constricted, as if she had heard something extremely terrifying.

To be honest, they all had this experience more than ten years ago, even more than once, when killing Death Eaters.

But if you raise that number to seventy... there will be no one sitting here except Alastor Moody.

Even Alastor had accumulated numbers over his decades-long career as an Auror.

But as for Kyle, if he killed seventy Death Eaters at once...

Inexplicably, when Ron looked at Kyle again, his legs began to tremble unconsciously. This was a physiological reaction and had nothing to do with whether he was familiar with Kyle.

"There must be some mistake, Chris." Mrs. Weasley came back to her senses and said, "Kyle is a good boy, how could he..."

"No, Molly..." Mr. Weasley shook his head, "The news we received is that all seventy Death Eaters were killed in Godric's Hollow. If I guess correctly, Scrimgeour The Aurors are already there."

"No, this has nothing to do with me." Kyle looked innocent and quickly denied, "I didn't do it."

"But you were the last one to leave," Kingsley said.

He had been wanting to ask since just now, but because Chris was here, he didn't know what to say.

Now that Chris took the initiative to mention this, he took advantage of the situation and asked: "You are the last one, no one knows what you did."

"But I didn't do this, I swear." Kyle raised his wand calmly, "If you don't believe me, you can also use the magic contract to verify whether I have killed seventy Death Eaters."

"Ah, no need." Kingsley hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head, "Believe me, I don't mean to question you..."

"Of course you shouldn't question." Mrs. Weasley also reacted at this time, she walked over quickly, "Let's put it this way, from the time I was sent to the Hog's Head Inn to the time Kyle came back here, there was only twenty minutes at most.

"Do you think Kyle can kill seventy Death Eaters within twenty minutes?"

"No, it should be fifteen minutes." Sirius added: "This is the time I came back, and at that time, the Death Eaters were still chasing us."

"Did you hear it?"

Mrs. Weasley continued: "If Kyle can really kill all the Death Eaters within fifteen minutes, do we still need the help of the Phoenix?"

"Admit it, Kyle, you will become a legend. "Fred couldn't help laughing.

"Even Dumbledore will call him Little Kyle in the future." George also said with a smile.

"No, it should be Old Kyle."

After that, the two of them couldn't help laughing.
