Dusk fell.
Harry buried his head in the Thestral's fur, thinking sadly about Black's current situation.
But Harry understood that Black was not heeding Voldemort's threats, but he was not dead either.
Because his scars weren't too painful.
Voldemort's scars would be especially painful whether he was happy or angry.
But tonight, such performances were rare. However…
He couldn't say for sure until he saw Sirius. As darkness fell...
Harry felt his legs, which were wrapped around Thestral, go numb. Suddenly.
Harry sensed the Thestrals swooping down. They seemed to be landing. They saw lights. They saw buildings.
When they finally landed on the ground, Harry finally saw the phone booth.
"Come here, this way!"
He beckoned Darren and the others over.
They squeezed together into the small phone booth.
Darren's face was pressed tightly against Ginny's. His body was surrounded by Luna, Hermione, and Ginny. He was so squeezed that he felt someone touch his hand.
That's really... thankful.
Harry had by then obtained a large number of badges through the phone booth. He had them all pinned to their clothes.
Darren took his badge.
The sign read: Special Envoy, Darren Porter, Purpose: Warmth Relief Operation! Uh...
He was actually a special envoy. But that's not unusual.
Since he obtained that little key, he has received many privileges, and it's quite normal for him to have the title of special envoy.
His current concern is how to get Sirius to fall into the veil tonight without him dying.
Is it a fake card or a fake "holy father" card? Or should we try a different location?
After all, if Sirius Black were to fall into the veil, he would definitely use a lot of his "Honorary Points"...

Chapter 605 The Mysterious Affairs Department!!
Darren pondered.
Then they took the elevator and finally entered the Ministry of Magic. Unlike when Darren and Harry had been there before, the Ministry of Magic was now deserted.
Everyone inside has disappeared.
Logically speaking, there should always be a few people guarding this place. Harry clenched his fists even tighter.
"This way! I've seen these places in my dreams, I know how to get there!"
"Harry said excitedly. Darren nodded."
Then everyone rushed into a downward elevator with Harry. The ninth floor.
"The Bureau of Mysterious Affairs!"
"After they reached the ninth floor," the mysterious female voice prompted.
They rushed out of the elevator. Harry looked at the Department of Mysteries.
His face showed some tension, but also deep confusion.
He thought that Voldemort tormenting Sirius here would create a great stir, but there was nothing there.
"Brother, we..."
"Once we're here, we must find Blake!"
Harry said uneasily.
Darren hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
But he still walked beside Harry. He gestured for everyone to stay close to him.
Hermione and Ginny were right behind him.
When they saw Darren's back again, they almost burst into tears. The bloodstains seemed even thicker now.
Darren's face grew even paler.
But they almost always unconsciously ignored it. Hermione covered her face.
She wanted to remind Harry to look at Darren properly, but all she saw was Darren turn around and put his finger to his lips, as if telling her to be quiet.
She knew that Darren just didn't want Harry to be distracted, but... Black was Harry's family, but wasn't Darren family too?
Harry has already lost his temper with Darren several times today, all because of Black.
Hermione gave a slightly annoyed snort.
I've decided that when I get back tonight, I'll definitely make Harry apologize to Darren. Darren must be feeling really bad tonight.
Harry knew none of this. He turned toward the ordinary black door.
This was the door he had seen countless times in his dreams. It was so familiar, it couldn't be more so. He pushed the door open. Inside was a circular foyer.
The light here is dim. In Harry's dream.
He usually walks straight through the foyer and then directly into the door opposite.
But as he was thinking this, all the doors in the foyer started turning, as if they didn't want them to know which door they should go through.
They could only rush through one of the doors at random.
But inside that door, there was nothing useful. Just rows of brains.
These brains look appalling.
"Someone, please mark this spot so you don't have to come in again later!"
Darren said softly.
Luna did as he said.
Then a red mark appeared in the air.
Even after they left, they could still see the mark.
"great!"
Darren finally gave a genuinely approving smile. Luna smiled shyly.
They went into another room.
Darren saw that it was a circular room. There were concentric steps leading down into a recessed area. At the very center was a huge stone pit.
In the center of the pit, there was a raised stone platform. On top of it stood an archway.
Above the archway hung a curtain. Darren approached it.
Just as he was thinking about what was there and how he could let Black fall in and die, Hermione pulled him back.
She said, almost in terror, "No, no, Darren, you can't go there."
Professor Victor once said that he believes there's a high probability you'll fall into a veil and disappear without a trace!
"Huh?" Darren was startled.
He immediately moved away from the curtain. He decided to avoid it today. Harry was drawn by their voices. He looked towards the curtain.
Then he heard whispers coming from inside the curtain. It was as if someone was talking to him.
It sounded like Darren's voice. Darren then told him to leave.
Harry stared blankly at the curtain.
He even tried to move the curtain with his hand, but Darren grabbed him.
"Brother, hurry! Your goal is to save Sirius!"
Harry suddenly remembered.
It seems I'm looking for Sirius.
But for some reason, that curtain really attracted him.
"Darren, I heard you talking in there!"
Harry said absentmindedly. Darren really wanted to yell, "Shut up, you bastard!"
But he still gave a helpless smile: "It's all an illusion. That place leads to life and death. I've heard that people who fall in never come back!"
Harry finally snapped out of his daze. He quickly moved away from the curtain, clearly finding it extremely unlucky.
There are people inside!
Luna suddenly said.
