People in Hogwarts, holding scripts and systems

"Hogwarts is like a big net." A tall figure stood up beside the table, and the familiar voice gave Harry an illusion.

"Waiting for you, you fools!"

Harry walked to Sirius' side and saw the owner of the voice. A similar face was imprinted in his eyes, and his blue-green eyes were full of surprise.

"You're Aberforth," Harry said to him.

Aberforth did not comment. He walked to the door, opened a small crack and looked outside at the black shadows that appeared from time to time.

"Let's go upstairs first. They have started investigating."

At the top of the stairs was a small living room with a fireplace on a worn carpet and a large painting of the Golden Girls hanging above it.

There were shouts from the street below.

"You shouldn't have come here." Cedric tidied up the sofa until it was barely big enough for them to sit down.

"Voldemort already knew about the Horcruxes." Harry took a sip of the hot butterbeer and felt his whole body begin to warm up. "And he took Dumbledore's wand."

After a moment's silence, Sirius spoke up: "All the secret passages in Hogwarts have been sealed off. If you really plan to go back -"

"I have to go back," said Harry.

The room fell silent again, and they could only hear the sound of the fire burning and the voices talking downstairs.

Afro gave a brief description of what had happened in the past few days, including their discovery of the Horcrux and the sword.

Aberforth and Dobby the elf brought them some dinner, which was just a few slices of cheese and a large piece of bread.

"It turns out that the snake next to him is a Horcrux, no wonder." After listening to this, Lupin sighed at the meticulous plan of Voldemort.

If Dumbledore hadn't always suspected it...

"But didn't Dumbledore say there were two more Horcruxes?" Even after a few days here, Cedric still couldn't get used to Aberforth's food. He moved away from the bread: "What about the other one?"

Everyone's eyes were on Harry, and Harry met Aberforth's eyes, which were the same blue eyes as Dumbledore's, staring at him, just as Dumbledore was staring at him.

"it's me."

"What!" Sirius almost jumped downstairs from the second floor. His brows were furrowed, and his breathing became heavy and rapid: "Harry, are you sure? How is it possible!"

Afro was also shocked by his words, and she hadn't even figured out how to remind him about it.

"Not sure." Harry looked down at the foam floating on the cup and said solemnly, "Do you remember what was in the prophecy?"

Everyone nodded. They were all fighting for this sentence. Harry was the hope of the wizarding season.

It was like this sixteen years ago, and it will not change sixteen years later.

"If Nagini can be a Horcrux, that means--" Harry gave Avro a look, and the latter immediately continued speaking in sync.

"Horcruxes can also be living things with vital signs."

Ron didn't know what expression to make. He felt that he had received too much information today.

"And I doubt he knows it," said Harry calmly. He seemed to have completely accepted that he was a Horcrux and did not look like he had just figured it out.

Sirius and Lupin looked at each other for a long time before he said to him earnestly: "Harry, no matter what you do, we will stand behind you -"

"But this matter is too important, we must inform other members." Lupin said.

Harry nodded, knowing that he, or the four of them alone, would not be able to fight Voldemort in the final duel.

He needed more people to help him distract the Death Eaters and give him a chance to kill Voldemort.

"It's wonderful!" Aberforth clapped his hands and shook his head and said, "It's a pity that the Order of the Phoenix is ​​going to be finished. The You-Know-Who is going to win."

"Are you crazy, Aberforth?" Sirius finally found an outlet for his accumulated anger after he said this: "As long as we have Harry, we will definitely win!"

Aberforth sneered twice: "You'd better go abroad to save your life."

Lupin stepped between him and Harry and put his hand on Harry's shoulder: "Don't listen to him, do what you want."

Aberforth obviously did not give up, and spoke cruel words in a tone similar to Dumbledore.

"Anyone who gets my brother's attention ends up in a miserable situation."

"Mr. Dumbledore." Afro stared into his eyes and said meaningfully, "The obsession you have had for so many years will be answered after everything is over."

“Even if you get the answer, you can’t go back.”

Aberforth stared at Harry. "He would hardly tell you everything, and you still trust him so much."

Harry wanted to say "yes", but the words wouldn't come out.

Aberforth knew what he was thinking.

"I know my brother, Potter." Aberforth turned his head to look at the portrait hanging above the fireplace and said softly, "He learned secrets and lies since he was a child. This is his innate talent."

“That’s how we were raised.”

"I think you've heard a lot about us and Ariana, but I want to tell you that my brother is never what you think."

"Even so, he's doing it for the wizarding world," Hermione said, her face slightly flushed under the red light.

Aberforth sneered, as if mocking their arrogance.

"Even if I fight to the end, it's better than you who give up." Ron clenched his fists and shouted.

"I haven't given up," said Aberforth.

Aphrodite repeated everything he had said before, and Aberforth glared at her fiercely.

"I have to go back," Harry interrupted, stubbornly.

Aberforth stared at Harry, staring at him blankly. Finally, he seemed to give in and finally took action.

"You know what to do." He walked up to the portrait and said to the blonde girl.

The girl smiled slightly, turned around and disappeared into the frame.

Lupin began to use their unique way of delivering messages to inform other members of the Order of the Phoenix to arrive at Hogwarts tomorrow.

"Harry, you must act carefully before everyone arrives." Sirius reminded Harry again and again. He looked at the face that was almost exactly the same as his old friend, and hugged Harry tightly in his arms.

"James and Lily are so proud of you."

Harry planned to sneak into Hogwarts tonight to find out the news inside, and they hugged and said goodbye to the others.

"There is only one way in now," said Aberforth, pointing at the portrait.

Hermione frowned and looked into the frame. A small white dot appeared at the end of the tunnel in the painting, getting closer and bigger.

His hair was longer than Harry's, his face had several cuts on it, and his clothes were in tatters.

The portrait opened like a small door, revealing the real secret passage.

The person who suddenly appeared in the portrait shouted in ecstasy after seeing Harry and Afro's faces clearly.

"Harry! Afro!"

"I knew you would come back, I knew it!"
