Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 2561: Condolences that shouldn't be there

() The wind in Cherbourg picked up again, and the flags on the pier fluttered.

The Union logo on the flag looks a little distorted when the flag swings in the wind. If you look at it for a long time, you may even start to wonder if it was originally like this.

There have been a lot of people coming to the camp lately, a mix of Muggles and wizards. Since it is rare to get together in such a group, they naturally communicate with each other, but obviously, these people who are still considered to be famous in their respective worlds do not seem to communicate very smoothly.

Even in today's big environment, the cooperation between wizards and ordinary people has indeed become an inevitable and necessary.

But today, at the time when the people from all parties invited by Maxim as the current president of the International Federation of Wizards have almost arrived, another sailboat that looks quite magnificent suddenly appeared near the port On the surface of the sea, the staff on the pier and some invited guests who were relaxing together at the port subconsciously whispered to each other.

There is no doubt that it is a magical ship, and... no matter who the people on it are, you can tell from the style of this ship, it must not be simple!

Just a moment after the sailboat entered the port, as a few people hurried back to report the news, more and more people gathered on the pier. In the end, even Madame Maxime appeared here—because the employee of the federation who rushed to inform her had already identified the origin of the big ship.

"Yes, it is indeed the coat of arms of the Rossi family."

Madam Maxim, who was standing among the subordinates, looked at the shield-shaped marker hanging on the side of the bow of the ship, and nodded slightly. Although her expression didn't change in any way, there was a faint solemnity in her eyes.

To be honest, she did not expect that the three major families would send people to this funeral. After all, she thought that the three major families would definitely disdain such a gimmick-like activity that could only be regarded as wishful thinking, let alone send people to participate in it.

However, the arrival of this magical ship belonging to the Rossi family obviously broke Maxim's judgment on the three major families at once—this is obviously a gesture of coming here specially to attend the funeral! If only for other reasons, there is no need to prepare such a ship at all.

Here Maxim was thinking secretly, and the big ship over there finally docked steadily, and the gangway on the side was lowered accordingly.

Then, at the focus of many eyes on the pier, the first figure to disembark suddenly appeared.

"Who is that? Who knows, tell me—"

"It's Miss Granger!"

"who?"

"Granger, Hermione Granger! Hasn't anyone introduced the name of this camp? It's named after Miss Granger, and she set up this camp."

"Oh, no wonder I feel as if I've heard it somewhere..."

"Ah! But the reason why you feel familiar is probably not because of this—a while ago, the Wizards Rebellion Alliance, which had a strong momentum a while ago, besides President Maxim, among the three founders, this Miss Granger seems to be one of them. I reckon you've heard about it before it sounds familiar."

"Oh, oh, yes, what you said seems to be true. After all, although the resistance alliance seems to be disintegrated and reorganized soon, it can be regarded as the predecessor of the current alliance coalition led by Madam Maxim..."

Gu's similar low-pitched conversations interweave among the crowd on the pier, forming a buzzing sound that flows indistinctly. While watching with whispers, Hermione led Hannah, Neville and others down the gangway one after another.

Ron and Ginny, who went to pick them up, were naturally among them. In fact, they also gained a lot of attention this time. After all, not long ago, the two of them, brother and sister, and Sirius had an incident of some sort in the camp where many guests had gathered.

"Hey! That Miss Granger, and the people behind her... Judging by their expressions, it seems... a bit hostile?"

After paying attention for a while, I don't know who murmured such a sentence, which won the soft approval of many people. At the same time, it also caused more doubts and wait-and-sees in the eyes of Hermione and the others from the guests at the dock.

But soon, many eyes began to shift again, because behind Hermione and a group of friends, another group of figures began to enter everyone's field of vision.

Many of the invited guests did not know the identities of these people, and the faces made them feel very strange, and there seemed to be no clues at all just looking through their memory.

However, none of these wizards and Muggles, who are well-known in their respective fields, would think that the other party would be a group of insignificant people.

The first thing that appeared was a group of knights on flying horses—they lined up neatly and took off from the deck of a large ship that was invisible to the guests on the pier, and followed several fur-clad warriors like escorts. A burly figure wearing a wizard robe appeared and landed in a line on both sides of the gangway.

Immediately following, a group of wizards in uniform ivory-white robes with gold trim slowly disembarked under the leadership of an old man with white beard and white hair.

As for the ten or so men and women in mixed clothes who came down at the end, because they were so inconspicuous compared to the first two batches of imposing people, most people regarded them as ship attendants. Ignore it.

However, Mrs. Maxim, who was staring at all this, never missed a single face.

"Except for the really old man from the Matuseyevich family~lightnovelpub.net~ the other two of the three major families are here as heads? This..."

This is no longer unexpected, it is simply incomprehensible to Maxim! You know, before the three major families notified the federation to take over the second battlefield's eastern defense line, but they only sent a phoenix to send a letter to her!

They... all came to this funeral?

Maxim could no longer understand the current situation. After a little daze, she subconsciously turned her focus to Hermione and the others at the front. Because she soon realized that since Hermione and the others came here on this ship, most of this scene had something to do with them.

After a little hesitation, Maxim didn't show the shock and hesitation in his heart, but chose to push aside the guests, and greeted them with many curious eyes—

She is the president of the International Federation of Wizards and the organizer of the upcoming "hero funeral". Even if she doesn't want to at the moment, she can only bite the bullet and take it.

"Really, it's terrible." She thought to herself.
