Chapter 142 137 The Death Eaters' Sudden Attack
Bai Le was woken up by a loud noise, but when she opened her eyes in a daze, she was a little frightened by the serious expression of Severus who was standing next to the tent door.
'Sev, what happened? Bai Le shook his head and tried to regain consciousness. The people outside who seemed to be running wildly and shouting in panic clearly showed that something terrible must have happened.
'It's the Death Eaters.' Severus held his wand defensively in his right hand, and his eagle eyes were watching the distant firelight on the other side of the camp through the gap in the tent.
'Death Eaters? Bai Le quickly put on her wizard's robe, and ran towards Severus. The burning sky looked a little scary at this moment, "Why did they attack suddenly?" '
Severus also frowned at this time, which was also what he couldn't figure out.According to Dumbledore's speculation, the newly resurrected Voldemort should be very weak, and the most sensible choice at this time should be to rest and gather his strength again, and the worst choice is to launch an attack at this moment to attract the attention of the Ministry of Magic .Unless, unless he wants to achieve something... The rapid operation of Severus' brain was interrupted by a gorgeous voice,
'Severus, it's Lucius, can I come in? '
Severus looked at Bai Le, and saw that the little girl was wearing a long wizard robe at this moment. He lowered his body, and gently buttoned up Bai Le's wizard robe, then asked Bai Le with his eyes. Can Le let Malfoy and the others in?
Bai Le nodded. She was sure that with the strength of the Malfoy family, they must have obtained some information quickly by now.
Lucius had brought Draco with him, and the attack of the Death Eaters had undoubtedly made the Malfoy gentlemen's evening somewhat unpleasant, but Lucius didn't seem to be panicking.He strode into the tent, greeted Severus and Bai Le good night without losing the courtesy, then quickly turned his gaze to Severus, and stated in a rare serious tone,
'The Death Eaters are causing chaos on the other side of the camp at this time. From what I've heard, there's been a lot of fighting on the other side of the camp and there have been some casualties on both sides, but no one has died yet'
"But fortunately" Lucius changed the subject, his expression obviously relaxed, "It seems that their attacks are all aimed at one side of the camp, maybe they know that this is the territory of the nobles"
Lucius' words were not unreasonable, but Severus felt that things were not that simple.To be on the safe side, Severus and Lucius brought Bai Le and Draco to the Malfoy's manor by apparating first. Narcissa, who was worried about her family, was already waiting in the living room.Narcissa quickly ran to Draco and gave him a tight hug. After seeing that he was not injured, she was relieved to take Draco and Bai Le back to the room.
"Don't worry, I'll be there soon." Severus gently printed a goodnight kiss on Bai Le's forehead. After seeing the little girl reluctantly walking towards the room, he began to analyze today's situation with Lucius. late thing.
Near midnight, news came from the fireplace that the Death Eaters had finally left the Quidditch camp, and Severus and Lucius planned to return to the Quidditch camp to find out what was going on.
The camp was already a mess at this time, with scattered flames and the remains of tents everywhere, and Severus' sharp eyes shot at everything. According to Lucius, this is the place where members of the Ministry of Magic and their families are stationed.So, what is Voldemort's goal here?But the question is, what is it?Or rather, who?
"Look, who did we find?" Lucius' unabashedly mocking tone broke Severus' quick analysis, and he looked in the direction Lucius was looking at, and found this on the ground Harry was unconscious.
Severus frowned, how could this stupid Potter be here?Severus walked up to Harry and cast a silent, stickless fountain of water on the latter.
'Ahem' Harry, who was sprayed by the water, finally woke up. He opened his eyes and saw Snape and Malfoy who were looking down at him at this time, and immediately got up from the ground.
'what happened? Harry looked around at the still burning flames and the wreckage of the remaining tent, clearly not yet quite grasping the situation.Just when Malfoy was about to interrogate Harry, a sharp voice cut through the sky suddenly, and a huge Death Eater mark appeared in the dark night sky.
'what is that? ! Harry looked at the terrifying and hideous huge mark in disbelief, and suddenly the scar on his head started to hurt violently again, and he couldn't help but stroked his forehead with his hand.
Severus and Malfoy looked at each other, they both knew what it was, but the key question was, who issued this mark?What is the purpose?
'Who sent that thing? The Aurors who appeared in an instant apparition locked their eyes on the three of Severus. For those Aurors who claim to be righteous, Malfoy and Severus, who have a dark history, obviously cannot escape suspicious.The five Aurors aimed their wands at Malfoy and Severus at the same time, and the latter two quickly drew out their wands at the same time.
'Wait a moment! Harry couldn't help interrupting the tense momentum, although he hated Malfoy and Snape very much, but the so-called sense of justice in his heart still pushed him to tell the truth, "It wasn't them, when that thing came out They were with me all the time! '
Aurors obviously wouldn't believe what a child said, especially when they didn't know that the person in front of them was the famous Harry Potter.
'Remove your stupid sense of justice, Potter' Even in the face of the tense situation where the enemy outnumbered us, Severus still did not change his mocking tone, 'Do you think they will believe the testimony of a child? '
Just when Severus was about to strike first, a voice familiar to him suddenly appeared,
'It's not them' Old Crouch's sudden appearance and his inexplicably hideous expression at the moment attracted the attention of everyone present, but Severus' attention was on the wand held in the opponent's hand Above, he knew whose wand belonged, but he was even more curious as to why it was in Crouch's hand at this moment.
"That mark comes from this wand" Crouch showed the wand in his hand to everyone, although his eyes flickered at this time "I found it in the woods over there, I think it belongs to you, Mr Porter'
He's hiding something, Severus said to himself.
