People in Hogwarts, holding scripts and systems

"When I get married..." Fred said, pulling at his thick collar, "I don't want to go through all this weird procedures."

"You can wear whatever you like. I'm going to put a binding spell on Mom until the ceremony is over." George tied a large bunch of golden balloons to the pillar of the platform.

Ron was in charge of entertaining Mr. Weasley's old colleague. He guided the man to a seat facing the archway. When he passed by the twins, he heard their conversation: "You should be thankful that this is not a wedding ceremony yet."

It was just a thank-you party for Lupin and Tonks.

"But even if it's my turn, I will only listen to my love's arrangements." Percy led a pair of hard of hearing elderly couple and said to them with a raised eyebrow and a smug look on his face.

More and more wizards attended the banquet in the tent. They talked to each other excitedly, and their voices became louder and louder, seeming to drown out the sounds of birds and bees.

"I'm sorry, but the Ministry of Magic has been very unfriendly to werewolves recently. We're afraid we might cause you some trouble." Tonks, who had specially dyed her hair blonde, sat in front of the dressing table and spoke to Aphrodite in the mirror.

Afro flipped her wrist and tied her scattered hair into a beautiful bun, embellishing it with a pearl chain.

"It's okay." Ginny picked out a few diamond hairpins from the velvet jewelry box and fixed her bun.

Tonks smiled at them and Harry, with red curly hair, walked into the room carrying a plate of small cakes.

"Hagrid got the wrong seat and broke several chairs when he sat down on them."

Outside the window came the sound of Hagrid apologizing loudly and Mr. Weasley using magic to repair the broken things.

"Hello, Aphrodite, Ginny, Harry." Luna was wearing a bright yellow robe and a big sunflower in her hair. "They said you were upstairs."

"I'm Barney now."

"You even changed your name?"

"Luna, how did you recognize him?" Ginny picked a gardenia from the vase and put it behind Tonks' ear.

"His expression didn't change at all." Luna raised a finger, leaned out the window and shouted loudly: "Dad, a goblin bit my finger."

"Great, goblin saliva is particularly useful!" Lovegood left the acquaintance he was talking to, took off his hat and nodded slightly to Afro.

Hermione, wearing a lavender dress, walked up with a black-haired young man.

"Welcome, Viktor." Tonks put the invitation he handed over aside and said with a smile.

"Thank you." Krum took Hermione's hand, his eyes fixed on her. "You look so beautiful, dear."

Hermione blushed and said, "Let's go down quickly, the banquet will start soon."

Krum had his arm around Hermione's waist, clearly not wanting to be separated from his girlfriend.

"Oh my Merlin!" Ron stood at the door with a bitter face, "It's time, you should go downstairs."

"I really hope we don't invite Aunt Muriel next time!"

Hermione hugged Krum reluctantly, whispered a few words in his ear, and gave him a light kiss.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we gather here to celebrate the union of two souls..."

A large group of silver stars fell on Lupin and Tonks. Sirius, wearing a dress robe with a large white rose on his chest, whistled at them.

The guests in the front row burst into giggles, and the emcee wizard waved his wand, and the big tent disappeared, turning into a glittering golden dance floor.

"Aphrodite, do you like this kind of ceremony?" Harry looked into the girl's sparkling eyes with a serious expression that no one noticed.

"The ceremony was pretty nice, but it was too tiring and complicated." Afro thought of how Aunt Molly had asked them to decorate the venue these days. She frowned and immediately said that she found it troublesome.

"I've never seen Sirius so happy." Moody looked at the man who was messing with the two newcomers in the middle of the dance floor and fiddled with his cane. "Since your father left and Wormtail's betrayal."

"The sun will always rise, but we are just before dawn now." Afro picked up a glass of fire whiskey and clinked it with Moody's silver flagon.

Krum led Hermione and disappeared into the crowded dance floor, while Harry and Ron made their way through the crowd and gathered around Aphrodite.

After Percy rejected the third girl who asked him to dance, he also ran to stay with Aphrodite.

"You are really weird." Moody looked at them meaningfully, the smile on his lips was blocked by the silver wine jug.

Afro smiled awkwardly and continued to look at the people on the dance floor.

"What are you looking at?" Hermione waved her hand in front of Krum's eyes with some jealousy.

Krum stared at the bright yellow figure swaying on the dance floor and asked angrily, "Who is he?"

"Lovegood? He's my friend's father."

Krum cracked his joints fiercely and glared at Lovegood.

"What's wrong, Krum?" Hermione looked at him puzzledly: "Do you know him?"

"I don't know him, but he's wearing the symbol of evil!"

"Logo?" Hermione noticed that there was an inverted triangle logo on Lovegood's chest.

"Yes, that is Grindelwald's symbol. I won't make a mistake!"

Hermione was startled. She had only heard the name Grindelwald when she and Harry were searching for the whereabouts of the Philosopher's Stone in their first year.

"Grindelwald painted this sign on a wall when he was a student at Durmstrang. I have passed it every day for several years and I know it very well," Krum said coldly.

"Krum, this is very important. We have to tell Harry and Avro." Hermione pulled him away from the dance floor. Krum had already taken out his wand.

"Harry, this is important."

Hermione didn't know where to start. Krum was squatting on the ground rubbing the soles of her feet which were sore from dancing.

At this moment, a huge silver thing fell from the sky and landed on the largest long table.

Afro stared at the lynx and threw away the sandwich in his hand: "Gentlemen, are you ready? The escape is about to begin."

Lynx stood up lightly, ignoring the panicked crowd, and said in Kingsley's usual deep voice: "They are here, the Ministry of Magic has collapsed, and Scrimgeour is dead."

The lynx disappeared, and the people were still stunned. Harry had already seen masked figures beginning to appear in the crowd.

Members of the Order of the Phoenix drew their wands and began to fight, with screams and curses everywhere.

Avro immediately grabbed Ron with one hand and Harry's arm with the other, and shouted, "Hermione!"

Harry felt himself spinning in a circle, his vision went dark, and he could hear no sound. The only thing he could feel was Aphrodite's hand.

"Where are we?" Ron opened his eyes and saw that the surroundings were full of people, as if they had not left the party yet.

"Tottenham Palace Road." Afro released them breathlessly and looked for Hermione.

This was the place they had booked early in the morning.
