Fudge's Helplessness

Chapter 730: Fudge's Helplessness

Faced with the possible risk of betrayal, Mad-Eye Moody made his decision in just one second—abandon Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place as their headquarters and temporarily relocate to The Burrow.

No one objected, including Arthur Weasley and Molly. In fact, the two of them were the most eager; before Moody had even finished speaking, they had rushed back to move their things.

Worried that they might be short-handed, they took Fred and George with them as well.

"Sorry, Sirius," Moody said. "You probably won't be able to go home for a while."

"You don't need to apologize at all," Sirius said indifferently. "You know, if that place weren't still of some use, I wouldn't want to go back there in the first place."

"That's good." Moody said nothing more and turned to leave Hogwarts Castle.

Time was pressing. They had to stop the Death Eaters before they caused even greater destruction. Many people might die, but no one backed down.

Soon, everyone from the Order of the Phoenix had left.

Silvan and Hermione were left at the school.

The matter was not over yet, and people from the Ministry of Magic would be arriving soon. Silvan needed to repeat what he had said before.

Just then, the Great Hall doors opened, and Hagrid walked in from outside.

The small patch of his face not covered by hair or beard was soaked with tears. His body trembled as he cried, and after entering, he lowered his head, not daring to look at Dumbledore again.

"Slughorn is on his way here—he said he's already informed the Ministry of Magic."

"Thank you, Hagrid." McGonagall immediately stood up. "Once the Ministry people arrive, I may need to meet with them. Silvan, come with me."

Silvan nodded and left the Great Hall
