Chapter 474: Before the funeral

Genius memorize the address of this site in one second: (Acupoint Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Since the afternoon of Christmas day, the original bright sun seems to have forgotten his duties, and it has not been able to fall again for several days ground.
Snowflakes once again dominated everyone's horizons, and also occupied everyone's time to play outdoors.
However, Macaben did not intend to stay long, and there is still much to do. Now that you have enjoyed a cheerful friendship, it is time to act.
One more week is the public day of Dumbledore's funeral. Regardless of their friendship with Dumbledore or no friendship, a large number of wizards came one after another, and began to mourn in advance in memory of the first person of the contemporary white wizard.
Hogsmeade village was filled by these people all at once. Not only the three-broom upstairs were full of tenants, but even the extremely dirty and dirty place like the pig's head bar, there was no one left. room.
Whether it is day or night, there are people all over the streets of the village, and it is not easy to walk normally.
Hogsmeade villages have done this, and Hogwarts Castle is naturally not too loose. Because the funeral was so public, the number of people coming in was larger than Professor McGonagall's estimate, and there were a lot of people who were not easy.
Every professor in the school moved, and Maka, a particularly young professor of ancient magic literature, was not spared, and joined the ranks of entertaining guests.
He thought he had to take some saliva when receiving his guests. But he soon discovered that his fame seemed to be much greater than expected, and many people already knew him.
However, if you think about it, in the past few years, he has not had many small things, but the big things have never been broken. In addition to the wave of propaganda when he last accepted the Merlin Medal, most of him should not forget him.
Soon, while the snowstorm outside was getting bigger, a few days passed in a hurry.
In these days, Maca has seen countless people ...
There are various representatives of pure blood families at home and abroad, as well as excellent wizards of mixed blood or Muggle origin. Of course, there are many ordinary wizards who are unknown and have not heard of them.
There are professors and even principals of major magic schools, representatives of various large and small organizations, and naturally members of the International Federation of Wizards.
They all come from different industries, different families, and even different countries, but each of them will say a "grief", and each of them will be grateful for Dumbledore's life, and they will also be grateful for Dumbledore's existence.
Each of them explained everything that Dumbledore had done, and also showed Dumbledore's magnificent life, which was difficult to say in words.
Even if the body is dead, some people are more dazzling than those who are still alive. This is Albus Dumbledore.
Maca didn't know how many people felt this, at least he felt it. Although he never pursued such a life in the crowd, but could not help but sigh for it.
On the evening before the funeral, another huge carriage flew across Hogwarts Castle. Towing it were a dozen giant rune horses, which opened their silver wings and landed lightly on the edge of the forbidden forest.
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Maxim, who had not been seen for a long time, came out of the carriage and hugged Hagrid intimately.
Almost at the same time, a delegation from the British Ministry of Magic arrived, and current Minister Rufus Scrimgeour was among them. And along with them, there is even the Speaker of the International Federation of Wizards, the famous African wizard Babajid Akinbad.
It's no surprise that these two guests are coming. But if they come together, this will inevitably make people doubtful.
Several members of the International Federation of Wizards arrived here a few days ago. It was thought that the incumbent Akinbad would choose to avoid suspicion, but he did not expect him to come again, and came with Scrimgeour.
After the last minister of the British Ministry of Magic, Fudge, was finished, even the discerning people could see that there was something wrong.
But Maca was a little bit bottomed out.
Most of them were not suspicion-Dumbledore told him that day before and after the Merlin Medal. Therefore, even if they are walking together, it may not be a bad thing.
Compared to these two "official" characters, Maca is more concerned about another thing ...
"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you when I left the Burrow before? This funeral ceremony is more for outsiders, and it's doomed, so you better not come over!"
Outside the crowded auditorium, Maca frowned at Harry and others for a while.
Fortunately, Luna was more obedient. He said don't come and stay in her own home; Hermione is relatively more sane. She knew it was useless, so she didn't appear in school today.
"Maca, we can't sit at home and leave it alone!" Harry insisted, "I know a lot will happen today, but the thought of the professors and you are working hard for Hogwarts, and we are How can you sit back and relax while playing cards and playing chess in the burrow? "
"... Yeah." Ron hummed.
He didn't look as determined as Harry, but since he came, it means that he actually agreed to this action.
"Well ..." Marka reluctantly said, "What about Hermione? Since you're here, most of her are here, right?"
To Maca's surprise, Harry shook his head immediately.
"Hermione and I wouldn't agree with me this time," he said quietly. "She wrote us two days ago and told us not to come here with an impulse ... so today we didn't tell her . "
Maca froze and looked subconsciously at Ron again.
"She won't come, and we don't want her to come—" Ron decided in a tone of decisiveness this time. "It's enough for us two to be stupid. There is no need to force her to follow us.
"You have made up your mind today to use your own life for a psychological consolation?" Marka said politely, and waved again, "Hurry back! Hogwarts will definitely use you in the future Yes, definitely not now-don't you understand the truth? "
"We won't go back!" Harry insisted. "Did you not say that in the orchard that day? Written knowledge is far less important than practical practice-I think this principle is also universal in the fight against black magic!"
"The usual training is far less important than actually facing it," Ron added.
"That's right," Harry nodded, and then continued, "And, Professor Dumbledore once said a word-death, but another great adventure-this is not what you passed on to the professor. Is it? "
Having said that, he paused, then stared directly at Maca: "I know, it's too early for us to understand Dumbledore's words because of our two skills! But if we don't face it until we really How do you understand the truth when you need to face death? "
I have to say that Harry's words really did come up with ideas.
Maca has been deliberately protecting these friends, not wanting them to encounter too many crises. But letting them hide in asylum every time will not usher in real growth.
He is not unclear about this, but it is difficult to let go.
Aside from the boys Harry and Ron, at least the girls such as Luna, Hermione, Willie, etc., he couldn't help sheltering them from the wind and rain.
In some ways, he may be a hard-hearted person; in other ways, he is actually very soft-hearted. That's why he always laughs at himself, saying that he is just an ordinary person.
Like Dumbledore, he loved Harry, the courageous lion, just as he loved other little wizards. But when necessary, he could even let Harry die one time to make sure he could live more safely in the future.
If he replaced it with Maca, he wouldn't be able to do it at all ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Faced with Harry's argument and Ron's silent support, Maca hesitated.
Although these two former classmates and current friends are indeed not enough to cope with most difficulties, he can feel their courage and responsibility.
As they get older, their bodies are getting upright like themselves, and Ron is even half a head taller than him.
Probably because of his guidance and advice, the temperament of this red-haired boy has gradually drifted away from the occasional overcast look in his impression, and courage and persistence have gradually begun to appear.
On the contrary, Harry, under the influence of his own series of actions, grew significantly slower. It's a rare show of boldness this time, and he really shouldn't obstruct it.
But danger is dangerous after all, not only Voldemort is far from the Voldemort in his distant memory, but even Greenward has been mixed in. In addition, there is also the so-called "sin" that even confused him. Even more chaotic.
Under these circumstances, the courage of Harry and Ron seemed too small, and they could only be described by the flames of a blizzard.
Can this spark of stars wipe out the plains? Even with this possibility, Maca is not a gambler who can be used as a bet.
"……follow me."
The gambler cannot be regarded as a gambler, but the dealer can still be. Regardless of winning or losing, if you can think of a way to keep your chips, then it is not impossible for them both.
"It's all night until tomorrow. Whether you can stay or not, it's all up to you." Maka said softly as she walked, "I know you want a force, but if this force doesn't work, then What ’s the difference?
