Chapter 451 Return to School



The moment he saw Albus Dumbledore, Draco rushed over, grabbed Dumbledore's wizard robe, and said in tears: "Principal! Go and save Harry and the others, Principal!"

Dumbledore also had a heavy expression on his face, but he still stroked Draco's head and said slowly:

"I already know what happened, Draco. It's not your fault. I'll go now. You just wait for me here!"

Hearing Dumbledore's words, Draco shook his head frantically and said:

"No, Principal, I'll go with you!"

At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard outside the headmaster's office of Hogwarts. The three people in the room subconsciously looked outside the door. A moment later, Professor Flitwick walked in from outside the room.

Flitwick was stunned to see so many people in the headmaster's office, including Draco who was supposed to leave school. But then, he immediately said to Dumbledore with an anxious look on his face: "Albus, come out quickly, something has happened!"

When Dumbledore, Draco and others walked out of the headmaster's office of Hogwarts and came to the corridor, they saw a group of people slowly walking in step by step from the gate of Hogwarts below the castle.

Draco immediately recognized that it was Harry and the others, and couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "Oh my God, that's great, they escaped!"

But then, Draco noticed that Cedric, who was walking in the center of the crowd, was holding someone in his arms. Seeing this, the smile on Draco's face disappeared instantly, revealing a hint of horror.

At this time, Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall and others also noticed the person in Cedric's arms. Although the distance was relatively far, they immediately discovered that the person in their arms was already dead.

Seeing this, several people's hearts couldn't help but jump, and then even Dumbledore hurried down.

When the two sides met on the campus of Hogwarts, Hermione and Harry couldn't hold back their sadness and burst into tears when they saw Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall and others coming towards them.

Dumbledore's eyes were always on Cedric, or rather, on the person in Cedric's arms.

Dumbledore walked slowly towards Cedric, and finally, Dumbledore saw that the person in Cedric's arms was Green, who had graduated only a year ago.

Seeing Dumbledore coming over, Cedric said with red eyes:

"Principal, we are taking Green home..."

Then, Cedric, who had been suppressing his sadness, finally couldn't bear it any longer and cried bitterly to the sky.

Dumbledore took Green from Cedric's arms and said tremblingly, "Green, how did he die?"

Cassandra, standing by, had red eyes as she told Dumbledore what had happened.

After listening to Cassandra's story, Dumbledore also had red eyes. He looked at Green in his arms and said repeatedly: "Good boy, you can have a good rest, my good boy!"

At this moment, Cedric suddenly spoke, crying:

"Headmaster, you have to avenge Green, Headmaster! Voldemort, the Death Eaters, oh, and Professor Snape, bah, he doesn't deserve the title of professor! Severus Snape, he is also a Death Eater, and he is also here!"

Hearing Cedric's words, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick were shocked and looked at Dumbledore in disbelief.

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, but finally said slowly: "Okay, Cedric, I got it. You guys take a good rest. I will take care of the rest!"

Cedric said quickly:

"Principal Dumbledore, right now, right now, Voldemort and the Death Eaters are at Malfoy Manor. If we go there now, we can catch them all in one fell swoop and avenge Green. This is a good opportunity, Principal!"

But Dumbledore shook his head and said, "Cedric, you are still too young. There are many things you don't understand. What is this? This is another wizard war! War is not as simple as you think."

After hearing Dumbledore's answer, Cedric said angrily:

"I don't care about war or not! I just know that Green must not die in vain! Oh, the Ministry of Magic! Green is an Auror of the Ministry of Magic. We can also tell the Ministry of Magic about this matter and ask them to send Aurors to help. We will definitely be able to catch all the Death Eaters in one fell swoop!"

After hearing Cedric's words, Dumbledore sighed and said slowly:

"Before I came back, I was with Fudge. When I received Fawkes' letter, I told Fudge the news that Voldemort had returned. However, Fudge's answer was: This is impossible! The man who cannot be named cannot come back."

"So, if you want the Ministry of Magic to help, this is an impossible thing. Fudge will not admit that under his leadership, Voldemort has made a comeback."

After hearing Dumbledore's words, the scene fell into silence. Only Cedric muttered to himself in a somewhat incomprehensible way:

"Why? Why is this happening?! Green... Green he..."

At this moment, Cassandra suddenly said, "Cedric, Principal, let's discuss this topic later. Don't we have something more important to do?"

Hearing Cassandra's words, Cedric almost blurted out: "Is there anything more important than revenge for Green right now?!"

Cassandra turned around, looked at Cedric, and said word by word:

"Green's funeral!"

Cedric was stunned when he heard Cassandra's answer, and then he finally calmed down.

Cassandra turned to Dumbledore and said:

"Principal, I think we should hold Green's farewell ceremony at Hogwarts and inform the students. After all, Green has just graduated for a year and has a close relationship with many of the current students. I think we should inform them as well!"

Hearing Cassandra's words, Dumbledore nodded repeatedly and said:

"You are right, Cassandra, let's do as you say!"

Hearing Dumbledore's agreement, Professor McGonagall, who was quietly wiping away tears, immediately said: "I'll make the arrangements, Miss Cassandra. Give me a list later and I'll send an owl to the people on the list!"

Cassandra nodded, and finally looked at Dumbledore, and said slowly: "Headmaster, now, should we notify Wentworth?"
