  Chapter 1343 The Thief Shouts to Catch the Thief

"What's wrong?"

  In the dark bedroom, Isobel opened his eyes sleepily, looking at Albert who suddenly woke up and sat up from the bed.

   "Just had a nightmare."

  Albert breathed a sigh of relief. After calming himself down, he recalled the dream that had become blurred in his brain. There was always a bad feeling in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.

  He doesn't believe that his divination is so powerful that he can have prophetic dreams, but Albert is willing to trust his intuition.

  Isobel turned over and sat up in a daze, hugged Albert from behind, leaned his head gently on his back, and whispered: "I didn't expect you to have nightmares."

   "I didn't expect to have a nightmare either."

   Albert pulled the warm quilt to cover Isobel's white arms and half of his body exposed to the air, and said gently, "Be careful of catching a cold."

  Albert lifted the hook lightly, and called the magic wand beside the bed table. After leaving a short record, he helped Isobel lie back on the bed and continued to sleep.

   It's a long night.

  The nightmare just now made Albert feel physically and mentally exhausted, but he didn't feel any sleepiness.

He still vaguely remembered that dream, that was himself without any panel. Although he had worked hard to practice magic, he was still affected by the Second Wizarding War, and his family was killed by Death Eaters because of this. And because of his appearance, Harry Potter failed to defeat Voldemort in the end, the British wizarding world fell completely, and he himself died under the siege of Death Eaters.

  Yes, he had nothing in the dream, and he failed to avenge his family in the end, and finally died under Avada Kedavra.

   Without strength, it is sad.

  However, the present him is not the self in his dream.

  As if aware of something, Isobel leaned his body over and whispered: "Go to sleep for a while, there is still some time before dawn."

Yes.

  I will not lose!

   Looking down at his wife in his arms, Albert said to himself in his heart.

  Woke up the next day, Albert only felt physically and mentally exhausted.

   "Are you planning to have another child?"

  Katrina looked at the tired Albert and asked with a strange expression.

"What?"

   Albert didn't react for a while.

"nothing."

  Katrina withdrew her gaze and continued to flip through the magazine in her hand.

  Albert put the coquettish and cute Tom aside, picked up the cup of strong tea on the table to refresh himself, took a sip, and looked at Katrina who was flipping through the magazine: "Did you see today's newspaper?"

   "Probably hasn't been delivered yet!" Katrina raised her eyebrows slightly: "Aren't you going back to sleep for a while?"

   "No, what happened?" Albert asked suddenly.

   "What?" Katrina asked confused.

"Your Occlumency is not good enough, it's hard to hide from the master of Legilimency." Albert reminded kindly, "Even if I don't use Legilimency, I can still tell whether a person is lying, which is most powerful Every wizard has the ability."

   "You guys are really annoying!"

Katrina muttered and threw a newspaper in front of Albert. After the latter picked up the newspaper, his hands froze suddenly, because the front page news of the "Daily Prophet" was impressively about Hagrid's final death. judgment.

  The content summary is: Heroin openly colluded with giants and threatened Hogwarts students, and was sentenced to death.

It seems that in order to prove to the majority of wizards that the Ministry of Magic's judgment is based on solid evidence, they even moved out the head of Hagrid's half-brother Gramp, and through a large number of interviews, gave Hagrid and Grapp puts all kinds of labels on it.

   "Is this for real? I mean it's really Hagrid's brother."

   Katrina looked at the change in Albert's expression and had already guessed something.

   "What is true?"

  Isobel and Mrs. McDougall came over pushing the baby carriage.

"it is true."

   Albert looked at the entire page of photos, comparing the giant head on the photo with the face in his memory.

"That is indeed Hagrid's half-brother Grop. During the semester that Umbridge came to Hogwarts to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, Hagrid secretly brought Grop back to England from the giant camp and hid it in the In the Forbidden Forest next to Hogwarts, Dumbledore knew and acquiesced to this, so part of the newspaper is correct."

   "Are you going to save him?"

  Isobel picked up Alice and looked at Albert blankly.

"Save him? No, no matter what the result is, I will not take the risk to save Hagrid. That is the bitter fruit that Hagrid needs to bear. Now I am more worried that Harry Potter will do stupid things." Of course Albert Knowing that this is Yaxley's revenge for their invasion of the castle to save Ollivander.

   But so what?

  Since the start of the Second Wizarding War, as insiders, it is impossible for them to stay out of the matter anyway.

   The hatred between the two sides is even more difficult to resolve!

  Sometimes, Albert would also think about whether he had acted too lightly at the beginning?

  He doesn't like to kill people. Although it sounds like a joke, there are not many wizards who really died in the hands of Albert, and Smith is half of them.

  Most of the time, it can only be considered indirect. As for how those dark wizards died, Minister Scrimgeour ordered them to be killed.

  Although Scrimgeour was indeed influenced by him, it really has little to do with him.

"No matter what you plan to do, I will support you, but I hope you are safe, whether it is for me or Alice." Isobel handed Alice to Mrs. McDougal and kissed Albert lightly forehead.

   "Don't say that kind of unlucky thing, things are not as bad as you think."

  Albert was a little dumbfounded, but he also knew the harm this wizard war would do to ordinary wizards. It was no wonder that most wizards would rather hang on than be involved.

   "Master, there is your emergency communication!"

  The house elf appeared without warning and bowed slightly towards Albert to report.

   "I see, don't worry about it for now."

  Ever since Albert learned that Hagrid was about to be executed, he knew that someone would contact him to discuss countermeasures.

   But what countermeasures can he have?

  He will not be so stupid as to go to Azkaban to rob a prison, or go directly to the execution ground to rob people.

After slowly finishing the daily breakfast, Albert went directly to the headquarters of the Defense Association. He knew that the place was probably boiling, and the group of guys who wanted to make trouble all day probably couldn't wait to go to Azka Ban robbery, but this is really not a good choice.

   The Death Eaters must have prepared traps for them to fall into.

  How confident you must be to dive into the trap yourself.

  Even if Hagrid was his good friend, even if he had received the panel task, Albert would not risk the lives of other people who believed in him.

   "You are really calm!"

  Sanna secretly looked at the change in Albert's expression, and was very surprised that the other party could hold his breath. She knew that Hagrid was Albert's good friend.

   "If panic is really useful, I don't mind panicking in front of you." Albert took the latest report from Shanna: "Aside from this, are there any other important things recently?"

   "Yes, remember Nelson Tobin?" Shanna said in a low voice, "It's the Slytherin one. Hannah said he secretly killed those defeated dark wizards."

"I have a bit of an impression of Nelson Tobin. Both his parents died at the hands of the search team. It seems that he still hasn't let go of his hatred." Albert put down the parchment and said to Shanna: "Not everyone can let go of their hatred easily. , not even Harry Potter, so don’t be too harsh on Nelson Tobin. Forget it, I’ll go and talk to Nelson Tobin about this in person, and I’ll inform everyone of a meeting in the afternoon.”

   "It seems that you haven't thought about how to deal with Hagrid either?" Although Shanna guessed that Albert would not take risks for Hagrid, she was still a little surprised.

"I can't let other people who are willing to believe me pay for Hagrid's mistakes. This is a trap. I think anyone who is not blind can see that this is Yaxley's response to our previous invasion of Yax. Revenge at Fort Lee."

   "It's like what you would say.

  Sanna couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, turned and left.

Regarding the fact that Hagrid is about to be publicly executed by the Ministry of Magic, everyone's reaction is actually very average. The relationship between the members of the Defense Association and Hagrid is not as close as that of Albert and Hagrid. They proposed to save Hagrid, and even more so. Maybe he would like to see his side defeat the Death Eaters' plot again.

   As for fighting the Death Eaters head-on?

  Whether it is going to Azkaban to rob prison or saving people on the execution ground, it will be a huge counterattack.

   When everyone was talking dryly, Albert, who had been silent all the time, spoke slowly.

   "This is a trap. It is always extremely stupid to plunge into the trap prepared by the enemy in advance."

   "Are you going to give up Hagrid?" Fred asked tentatively.

   "What are you going to do?"

  George obviously knows Albert better, guessing that Albert has a way to save Hagrid, it is really unwise to plunge into the enemy's trap.

"I have reminded Hagrid more than once, um, probably more than three times. The three of Harry also advised Hagrid to leave Hogwarts for the time being, but Hagrid refused because he was worried about his giant brother Grop." Albert calmly explained a fact to everyone, "It's a good thing now, his brother Gropp was killed by Death Eaters because of need as an excuse."

He raised his hand to suppress all the noise, and said without haste, "I know this is because we were retaliated by the Death Eaters headed by Yaxley after we invaded the castle, but this is war, war There will always be deaths. And, I hope you don't forget that our enemies are Death Eaters, and it's common for them to vent their anger, so don't take any chances. If you feel safe, then I can only It is said that you will be the next one who may lose your life."

   After beating the crowd and suppressing their eagerness to die, Albert brought the topic back.

"As for Hagrid's matter, we naturally need to take action, but we definitely don't jump into the enemy's trap directly. Don't think that you are very powerful. Once you are ambushed, you are no better than the group of dark wizards in the old castle. I I don’t want us to make unnecessary sacrifices because of Hagrid, and no one should pay for Hagrid’s choice. I think Hagrid chose to stay in school, so he should be mentally prepared.”

The meeting room fell into a strange dead silence. Everyone no longer whispered, but looked at Albert one after another. No one expressed dissatisfaction with this, and no one said anything more. They all knew what Albert had done, and It is to defeat the mysterious man, and to lead everyone to survive in this cruel wizard war.

   "Any plans?"

  Lee Jordan broke the silence, let the topic go on, and asked everyone's doubts by the way.

"If possible, I plan to let the Death Eaters save Hagrid." Albert briefly shared his plan with everyone, "Our purpose is to save Hagrid as much as possible, not to go to war with the Death Eaters. Hope you keep this in mind.

"so…"

"We must avoid head-to-head confrontation with the mysterious people. It is not yet time for a full-scale war anyway." Albert took out his pocket watch to check the time, and said to other members of the association, "It is still a few days before the Ministry of Magic publicly executes Hagrid." Time, I will get in touch with the Order of the Phoenix as soon as possible, and discuss how to control the Death Eaters to save Hagrid."

   Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not denying that Albert's idea was actually correct, and it was a method they hadn't thought of.

  Whether it is to rob a prison or go to the execution ground to save people is very unwise.

  Hagrid has now been labeled a giant by the Ministry of Magic, and it would be extremely stupid for them to bump into it head-on.

  Using the Imperius Curse to control Death Eaters is indeed not very good, but it is still much better than Hagrid losing his life. If he was really dead-headed, then Hagrid would probably be dead.

   As for what would happen to that Death Eater, that was not his concern.

  Anyway, those who join the Death Eaters probably don't have many good ones.

  After the meeting was dissolved, Albert left Fred and George alone, allowing the Weasley brothers to contact the Order of the Phoenix and meet in another shelter to discuss a plan to save Hagrid.

   "You don't seem to want them here." George has been wondering about this for a long time.

"I think that will help the safety here." Albert said without hesitation: "This village is not protected by the Fidelity Curse. I am very aware of Harry Potter's ability to cause trouble. Maybe he will come , One said that name excitedly, and our place is completely finished, and the other shelters I prepared are not as comfortable as this one, and they can even be considered bad."

  Fred and George looked at each other, and they both felt that what Albert said was indeed reasonable. Ever since Harry entered school, something happened every year.

  They cannot gamble, let alone afford to gamble.

   "Will this plan really succeed?" Shanna asked suspiciously.

   "Yes, as long as there are no accidents, there will be no problem." Albert said.

   "What if something goes wrong?"

"What an accident, then Hagrid will probably lose his head." Albert glanced at Shannah and said calmly, "He has no choice. This is the best way at present. We can only gamble and win the bet." Live if you lose, die if you lose."
