The magical streets are similar to the Muggle streets, but are a little gloomier in comparison. After all, wizards like dark places. The streets are lit by Muggle street lamps, but the brightness is slightly lower.

There are all kinds of shops on the streets, most of which are small shops selling magic toys, magic potions, magic candies, etc. Of course, there are also herbal and potion shops selling various materials, cauldron shops, etc.

Harry and Charlotte walked side by side in front, looking at the shop windows on both sides. All kinds of shiny and gloomy things were displayed in the windows, and wizards came in and out, carrying all kinds of things in their hands.

After seeing a building almost in the center of the street, Harry asked, "What is this place?"

Sirius answered from the back, "This is the magical branch of the United Kingdom."

Harry looked at the Ministry of Magic. Although he was already accustomed to the wizarding world, he still felt extremely happy and excited when he saw these new things.

"I heard that there is a department in the Ministry of Magic called Auror. Charlotte, do you want to become an Auror?" Harry looked at Charlotte.

Aurors are the equivalent of detectives in the wizarding world. They are affiliated with the Ministry of Magic and specialize in arresting dark wizards who violate the laws of the wizarding world. They are usually wizards with powerful magical powers.

As for whether or not she wanted to become an Auror, Charlotte certainly didn't want to.

Aurors have to hunt down dark wizards and are often involved in extremely fierce wizard fights.

For Charlotte, this is not the case.

He doesn't want to be a brick-moving wizard who fights every day.

"You'll make an excellent Auror." Charlotte said, avoiding Harry's question.

"Will I? Will I become an excellent Auror? But I can't even learn the Patronus. I mean, I know spells, but maybe not as many as Hermione." Harry was a little frustrated: "If I were like you, knew more spells, and had more powerful magic, maybe I could become an excellent Auror."

Who would have thought that he was still the person Harry hoped to be?

Charlotte consoled him, "I remember that you did very well in your Charms class. You will learn more and more spells. And to be an excellent Auror, you need to know more than just a lot of spells."

Harry looked up at Charlotte: "It's not just spells, what else is needed?"

"Courage! Aurors fight against dark wizards every day. Without courage, who can persist in fighting against evil forces every day? When the Sorting Hat decided that you would go to Gryffindor, it had already decided that you are a courageous person, Harry."

Among the major schools, except for Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Gryffindor has the most Aurors at Hogwarts. It's because it takes courage to become an Auror.

"Really?!" Harry's eyes lit up, he clenched his fists and said, "I know! I will take Professor Flitwick's classes seriously in the future. Ron, Hermione, and Joa don't want to be a burden to you!"

drag?

Charlotte was stunned for a moment: "Why do you think so? I never thought you were a burden."

Harry thought for a moment and said, "Hermione actually doesn't want me to tell you about this, but you always leave Hogwarts alone. Although I don't know if you are in danger, as your friend and partner, I can't stand with you. I don't think this is a good thing."

"Don't worry, you are not a burden, you are my best friends." Charlotte put her hand on Harry's shoulder.

... 0 ...

Although his strength was enough to defeat Voldemort and Grindelwald, the Dark Lord had endless tricks. Even though Dumbledore had spent a lot of effort to defeat Voldemort, he was always worried that his strength was not enough.

But now, there's some relaxation.

After all, with these partners, he felt he could relax and trust his back to them.

Charlotte thought about it, then turned her gaze to Harry.

"However, there are requirements to become my partner." Charlotte said with a strange tone.

Harry didn't feel anything at all. He was excited because Charlotte had personally confirmed their friendship. He said, "No problem. We can meet any request!"

Charlotte reached out and patted Harry's shoulder: "Very good, I will teach you spells next semester."

Sirius and Lupin walked behind the two men, not very close, but not very far away, so they did not hear the two talking. However, seeing the two walking side by side, Sirius said with emotion: "Time flies so fast. I remember that we walked together like this back then."

Lupin put his hand on Sirius' shoulder and said, "We can do this now. I believe James will be very happy to see Harry now."

Sirius smiled, looking forward, but froze in an instant.

A dark shadow flashed before his eyes, and that dark shadow made him feel extremely familiar.

"Bella."

Chapter 175: The blocked Floo network!

Hearing Sirius' words, Lupin instantly became nervous.

He looked at Sirius, "It's Bellatrix Lestrange! Sirius, are you sure you're not seeing things?"

Now the prisoners in Azkaban are on the statistic list, and many Aurors are arresting prisoners every day. Their current location is very close to the Ministry of Magic. No matter how powerful those prisoners are, they will not come to such a place.

Could it be that it was really Bella?

Lupin hoped that Sirius was mistaken.

Sirius blinked, he was a little unsure, after all, he hadn't seen his cousin since Bella married Rodolphus, and he also knew that Bella didn't like him at all.

After not seeing each other for so many years, even Sirius was not sure if he was right.

"Anyway, there might be danger here."

Regardless of whether it is true or not, it is better to be careful at this time of "303".

The two looked at each other, and then Sirius walked quickly to Harry and Charlotte. Harry and Charlotte were looking at the brooms in the window. Sirius took a look and said to them, "I want to apologize to you first, because Lupin and I have something to do, I don't think we can go to the circus."

Sirius was still reluctant to tell Harry and Charlotte about this.

After all, in Sirius's eyes, both of them were just underage wizards.

And Bella is a Death Eater.

It's too dangerous for them.

Lupin also said, "Next time, when we have dealt with things, we will bring you to see it, okay? The circus often comes back to London, we won't miss it."

Is there anything wrong?

Charlotte looked at the two of them, and his intuition told him that they were hiding something.

However, Sirius and Lupin didn't seem to intend to tell them what it was.

"Okay." Harry was a little disappointed, but he quickly recovered: "Next time, we must go!"

Sirius and Lupin led the two of them forward, and when they reached a fireplace on the street, the four of them stopped.

Because the wizarding world generally uses Floo powder as a means of transportation, there are always some fireplaces in Diagon Alley or on magical streets.

Sirius didn't know that Charlotte could use Apparition. He reached into his pocket and pulled out two small bags of Floo powder and put them into Charlotte and Harry's hands.

"I can't tell you the address, but I think you know the location, Harry. Take Charlotte back and stay at home. Don't come out for a while." Sirius touched Harry's head.

"I'm sorry that I couldn't fulfill my promise this time, but next time I will take you to the circus, and you too." Sirius reached out and touched Charlotte's head.

"Next time, the three of us will go to the circus together."

Sirius didn't know how much his words sounded like a flag.

At least, looking at Sirius's head, Charlotte felt that he had set a big goal for himself.

Harry looked a little sad, he always felt that Sirius and Lupin were going on an adventure, he reached out and hugged Sirius.

"Oh Sirius, it's okay, you don't need to apologize, I wish you'd come back sooner."

Sirius nodded, glanced at Lupin, and then said to the two of them: "You can go back now. Remember, stay at home and don't come out for the time being."

Harry nodded, holding the Floo powder in his hand, and shouting the name of a bus stop near the Black ancestral home. The Floo powder was sprinkled and a green flame rose up, but it was of no use.

Harry's body did not move away, but was choked by the Floo powder and started coughing.

Sirius and Lupin both widened their eyes at the same time: "What's going on?"

Charlotte threw the Floo powder in his hand into the fireplace, walked out of the fireplace, and said in a deep voice: "The Floo network has been locked."

Is it the Prisoner of Azkaban, Voldemort or Grindelwald?

In short, these people may block the Floo Network.

The darkness did not disappear completely, but hid deeper.

Charlotte looked at Harry. He wasn't sure whether this attack was directed at him or Harry.

After all, Voldemort, without a physical body, needs to be resurrected again.

The blood of enemies, the flesh of servants, and the bones of fathers.

Indispensable.

Sirius and Lupin also understood instantly. They frowned and turned to look at the street.

I don't know when the streets became empty.

Only a few wizards passed behind them.

The lights around them became dimmer, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong, but the surrounding environment made the two of them feel nervous.

Charlotte and Harry were protected by Lupin and Sirius. Charlotte felt that the air seemed to have changed.

A snowflake fell in front of his eyes. Charlotte exhaled and looked at the dark sky.

“It’s starting to snow.”

This means the air is getting colder.

Why did the temperature drop suddenly?

Although it is winter now, it was not so cold when they came out just now.

This kind of coldness seems to penetrate into people's hearts.

Lupin and Sirius seemed to have felt the strange cold as well. They protected Charlotte and Harry, looked at each other, and talked in low voices.

"What's going on?" asked Sirius.

"I didn't sense any aura, but I always felt something was wrong. Don't worry, the Ministry of Magic is just opposite. We can go to the Ministry of Magic." Lupin said.

They are now right across from the Ministry of Magic, which is the only building on the street that is still brightly lit late at night. Even though most wizards have gone off work, there are definitely still wizards in the Ministry.

They could go to the Ministry for help.

"It's become dangerous here. You said that they were on the run. If it's really them, then Harry and Charlotte will be in danger. Can we and those Aurors really protect Harry and Charlotte?" Sirius was not reassured.

It can be said that after James' death, his trust in the Ministry of Magic has dropped to the lowest level.

No matter who you are, you cannot trust an institution that has misjudged you for more than a decade.

What's more, the place where he was imprisoned was hell.

Lupin exhaled a breath of cold air: "I know you don't trust the Ministry of Magic, but we can only rely on the Ministry of Magic now."

Lupin looked at Sirius, then turned to look at Harry, who was confused, and Charlotte, who was looking down in thought.

"The Floo Network here has been blocked. They are only second-year students at Hogwarts. I think we should send them back via the Knight Bus. Since they have blocked this place, it means that they may want to deal with us here. The Black family is safe."

After all, they just saw someone who looked like Bella here. The danger level here is much higher than that of the Black family. With Harry and Charlotte here, they can't cast spells with complete peace of mind.

It would be better to send the two back so that they can go to the Ministry of Magic to explain the matter.

Sirius looked at Harry and Charlotte, then nodded.

"it is good.".

Chapter 176: Knight Bus!

Lupin and Sirius discussed it.

The two turned around and looked at Charlotte and Harry, and Sirius said, "We'll get the Knight Bus to take you back to Grimmauld Place."

Sirius lowered his head and reached out to touch the two men's heads: "Be careful on the way back, Lupin and I will be back soon, don't worry about us."

The air around him became even colder and damper. Sirius looked up at the sky and frowned slightly.

This feeling is getting worse and worse.

Charlotte and Harry must leave quickly.

Charlotte raised her head and looked around.

He also sensed an unusual aura.

"I can stay." He said, "We can be your helpers if we stay here."

With his strength, he could definitely protect Harry, Sirius and Lupin. Going back to the Black family would be a very bad idea.
