Chapter 232 The Hand of Death (2)
Jane wandered around the Weasley twins' joke shop, and was deeply shocked by their inventions and creations. She felt that it was definitely a loss for Mammon to give up cooperating with these two guys.But after shopping around, she also found a problem - Harry, Ron, and Hermione were not in the store.
This news made everyone nervous, and all the Aurors looked around for the shadows of the three of them.Mrs. Weasley's face turned blue with anxiety, and she began to worry whether some Death Eaters had sneaked in and captured the three of them.Just when Hagrid was about to contact Dumbledore, Harry and the others suddenly appeared again.
Mrs. Weasley questioned them where they had been, and Harry and the others insisted that they were in the back room.But Jane had been in that room before, and there was no one in it at all.This also meant that Harry and the others were indeed not in the store, but sneaked out.But Jane did not expose them on the spot, but kept silent.When she returned to the Order of the Phoenix, Jane immediately ran to Harry's room.
"What happened?" Jane asked straight to the point.
Not wanting to hide from Jane, Harry said, "We met Malfoy."
"You are following him." Jane could almost be sure of what Harry and the others had done, and at the same time could imagine the scene.But she didn't blame them, because she would have followed Malfoy anyway, but the main premise was that she had to understand what Malfoy had to follow.
"Yeah, we saw him go to Knockturn Alley by himself, to Borginbock," said Ron. "They seem to be plotting something, and Malfoy dumped his mother."
"What happened?" Jane felt that she couldn't understand a sentence like this.
"Well," Hermione took up the conversation, telling Jane the story, "We saw Malfoy and his mother in Madam Malkin's robe shop, and Harry almost got into a fight with them, you know Lucius Malfoy has been caught in Azkaban because of the Department of Mysteries." Hermione said, "But when we were in the joke shop, we found that Malfoy was the only one. In this case ha Leigh didn't think Malfoy's mother would let him go out alone, so we figured he must have had something to throw his mother off—"
"So you followed him?" Jane asked.
The three nodded.
Jane said, "Go on."
Hermione glanced at Harry and Ron, and then continued: "We saw Malfoy walking into the Borginburger shop in Knockturn Lane, which is the trading area for black magic. Malfoy must have a purpose in looking for Borginborkers. So we eavesdropped on a little bit of telescoping." Hermione gave Harry another look.
Harry said: "I heard that Malfoy asked Borginberg to repair something. There are two things, one is at Borginberg, and the other one Malfoy said can't be moved. Although I don't know Malfoy yet Say something, but it must be a conspiracy, must it not, Jane."
Jane was silent and did not speak.
Harry went on: "Then I saw Malfoy roll up his sleeves, and Borginberg looked scared. I suspect he's a Death Eater now."
For a while, no one spoke.
Suddenly, Ron burst out laughing: "Malfoy? He's only 16, Harry! Do you think You-Know-Who will let Malfoy join him?"
"The chances of that happening are extremely slim, Harry," said Hermione in a low voice, "why would you think that..."
"While at Mrs. Malkin's, he was yelling and trying to get his arm out so that Mrs. Malkin would lift up his sleeve to examine it. It happened to be his left arm. I bet it must have been branded." Marked for Darkness," Harry said firmly.
"In this way..." Ron said, his tone was very uncertain about it.
"I think he's just getting out of there, Harry," said Hermione.
"Such a mysterious thing he showed Poggin," insisted Harry doggedly, "a thing that scared Boggin Bork to the ground. I knew it must be the Dark Mark! He was thinking of Boggin Bork to prove that he was Whoever he is working for, you all have seen Bo Jin respectful to him!"
"I'm not sure, Harry..." said Ron hesitantly.
"Yeah, I still don't think 'that person' would let Malfoy join..." Hermione obviously couldn't believe Harry's inference either.
Harry was very annoyed by this.
After listening for a while, Jane thought for a moment, and said, "I think what Harry said makes sense. Although Malfoy is not of age, there is no express rule that minors cannot join the ranks of Death Eaters. What's more, among students Installing Death Eaters is not harmful to Voldemort," Jane looked at them, and then smiled, "At least no one can imagine it, right? If you do the opposite, there will often be Unexpected effect."
Because of Jane's words, Ron and Hermione no longer refuted Harry's words-in fact, their rebuttals were just a kind of fear in their hearts, rather than genuine disbelief in Harry's words.If Voldemort really reached out to the students of Hogwarts, then this thing would be really terrible for them-Harry was very happy because of Jane's words, because he thought that only Jane could do it at a time like this. is the one who understands him best.
When it was time to go to bed at night, Hermione lay on the bed and said to her: "You can ask Professor Snape about Malfoy, I think he will know - he thinks very highly of Malfoy."
Jane responded: "I will ask, if he is willing to tell me."
Hermione gave Jane a sad look and said nothing.
Jane lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling silently, until she closed her eyes and went to sleep after a long time.
It was always time to go to bed very quickly, and Jane felt that she just closed her eyes and dozed off, and it was already the next morning.Mrs. Weasley hurriedly urged them to pack their bags, and then went downstairs to eat.
Sirius put on the suit Jane bought him, looking like an elite Muggle.The crisp suit made him look good, but he didn't like Muggle ties at all, because he felt like he was being strangled.
"I think you should shorten your hair." Jane looked at Sirius' hair, "Maybe the effect of cross-dressing will be better."
Sirius scratched his hair: "But I don't think we'll have time to do it."
Jane tilted her head, opened her suitcase, and found a hat: "I think this can be used. Of course, you can wear a mask①. If someone else does it for you, you can say that you are allergic."

Notes:
Masks: China was the first to use masks in the world.In ancient times, people in the court began to cover their mouths and noses with silk scarves in order to prevent dust and breath pollution. If it is unclean, everyone will cover their noses and pass by."It is very unhygienic to cover the nose with hands or sleeves, and it is not convenient to do other things. Later, some people used a silk cloth to cover the mouth and nose.In his book "Marco Polo's Travels", Marco Polo described his experience of living in China for 17 years.One of them reads: "In the palaces of the Yuan Dynasty, those who offered food covered their mouths and noses with silk cloth to let them breath and not touch food and drink." Such silk cloth covering the mouth and nose is the original mask. At the beginning of the 13th century, masks only appeared in the Chinese court.The waiter used a silk and gold thread towel to make a mask to prevent the breath from being transmitted to the emperor's food. At the end of the 19th century, masks began to be used in the field of medical care.German pathologist Ledecchi began to recommend that medical staff use gauze covers to prevent bacterial infection. At the beginning of the 20th century, masks became a must-have item for the public for the first time.The Spanish flu that swept the world claimed the lives of about 5000 million people, and the general population was required to use masks to resist the virus. In the middle and late 20th century, the large-scale use of masks was significantly frequent.Masks have played an important role several times in preventing and blocking the spread of germs in the previous major flus that have been recorded in history.
