The discussion continued late into the night.
The best candidate to go to Hogsmeade had been Nymphadora Tonks. As a Metamorphmagus, she could easily deceive everyone’s eyes and perfectly conceal herself.
Mundungus was also a good choice—his frequent dealings in shady business had made him a master of disguises, allowing him to blend in effortlessly.

Sirius agreed without hesitation.
It wouldn’t be difficult. Just ten miles from Hogsmeade, there was a Muggle village. When the time came, he only needed to wait until nightfall and find a Muggle with a full head of hair.
Harry was pleased with this decision.
