Chapter 65 Past Years
Chapter 65:
Such a bad mood in the past could only be relieved every day in the secret room in the corridor on the eighth floor. But it can only be alleviated, not eradicated, not to mention that the spell has not made much progress. They have tried to impose restrictions at any step, but they can never be secretive and foolproof without being discovered.
At this time, even if Avides sent news that the mine was larger than expected, it could not alleviate the dark mood that had enveloped Mu Yu since the beginning of school.
Even the third-year student's long-awaited trip to Hogsmeade didn't have much appeal to her.
Daphne was very interested in this, and as soon as she came out, she pulled her towards a store with a window full of all kinds of candies: "Leah wants Bee Duke's lollipops. We just happen to go and have a look."
Immersed in Mu Yu has been in his own world for too long, and he hasn't paid much attention to Daphne for a long time. Now that he came out and it was just the two of them, he could immediately see the problem.
Since the beginning of school, Daphne seemed to be gradually leaving the other girls' cliques. How long had it been since she had been with Pansy Parkinson's group?
As long as she didn't take the initiative to say it, Mu Yu would not ask. She let Daphne pull her through the bustling streets, just being a good companion at a time like this.
To go to Bee Duke, she must pass by the largest bar in Hogsmeade. It was precisely because of passing by that she decided to temporarily stop playing this role.
You can see straight to the bar from the door. Perhaps because the weather is getting colder, a large number of people choose to warm up around the indoor fireplace. With just one glance, Mu Yu spotted Viola sitting in the middle of the crowd, and it was hard not to notice. It seemed like a coincidence when she just passed by the door. Viola raised the cup in her hand and shook it at her from a distance.
An action that seemed casual to outsiders had a profound meaning in Mu Yu's eyes. Viola seemed to be sitting here waiting for her on purpose.
"Xiao Di, you go to Bee Duke first," Mu Yu let go of Daphne's hand and looked at a small shop next to the bar. Compared to the Three Broomsticks, the shop was too small. Even the decorations were full. Tacky lace, through the frosted glass you can vaguely see that most of the people inside are in pairs, "I want to go to the Pudifu Teahouse first, and then go to Literary Residence Quill to pick out some things. I'll look for them later." You."
She believed that Daphne would not be willing to follow them in either place.
Sure enough, Daphne's face changed when she heard about Pudifu Teahouse: "Yu, I can guarantee that the tea in Pudifu Teahouse is very, very unpleasant to drink. It's usually..." At this point, she lowered her voice and said, "Dating. Place."
As if he was worried that she didn't know the meaning, he emphasized again: "You understand, boys and girls."
"Just curious," Mu Yu said casually, but his attitude was very firm, "There is no requirement for one person to return. We can't drink tea. I've been waiting for a long time. You go to Bee Duke first and then we'll go back to Hogwarts together."
"Okay," Daphne walked forward alone this time, not wanting to leave. After a few steps, he turned around and looked at her quietly, "There's no need for this, I've always regarded you as a friend."
She seemed a little annoyed, and after speaking, she quickly walked towards the candy store. Her little mood didn't affect Mu Yu, these little things weren't worth bothering her about.
What's more, in the beginning... Daphne didn't treat her as a friend.
Naturally, the meeting couldn't be at a place like the Three Broomsticks. She walked toward the end of the street, leaving the noisy street behind and Daphne's reaction at the same time.
At the end of the path is a forest. It's only the end of October and the leaves are almost falling off, making them creak when you step on them. It's obviously not outside the scope of Hogsmeade village, but it's like a wasteland, and no one has set foot on it for an unknown period of time. The cold wind blew by, and the bare and straight tree trunks made the place look eerie.
It is an ideal meeting place. When Mu Yu reached the middle of the woods, he stopped walking and kept picking at the leaves on the ground with his toes.
Viola didn't make much noise when she phantomed. If she hadn't actually seen the figure, she would have thought it was just a leaf blown off by the wind.
"There is bad news," she said without saying any nonsense, "the dementors are aware of it. When they reported to the Ministry of Magic this week, they specifically pointed out that there seems to be something weird inside Hogwarts. Little girl, you have to find a way. Hurry up..."
What she said next was stopped by Mu Yu who raised her hand. When she heard the news, she didn't even react. She was still staring at the fallen leaves at her feet, trying to arrange them into complex and profound patterns.
"Don't call me little girl," Viola asked before she could stand it any longer. "Are you sure what you just said is accurate? When they reported it, they actually pointed out that there might be something weird inside Hogwarts." The
last question She bites every word very hard.
Her way of questioning made Viola pause for a few seconds before answering seriously: "It's absolutely true, this is the original text recorded in the files of the Ministry of Magic."
Only then was Mu Yu willing to raise his head and look at her with a very peaceful look. Ola couldn't tell whether she was extremely panicked or if she was really confident.
"If I remember correctly, you were only temporarily transferred, and your work was also carried out in the International Magic Cooperation Department. It has only been a month, and you have access to such files..." She began to step on the leaves and slowly circle around, and the sudden movement forced Wei to Eula had no choice but to follow her, "No wonder the president of the Magical Congress of the United States of America considers you a serious concern."
What she said had nothing to do with dementors, as if such an important matter was not worth mentioning in her heart.
"Xiao...I mean Yu," Viola gritted her teeth and called out her name, "This is no joke. Never try to deceive dementors. They are always sensitive to souls. The Ministry of Magic will treat dementors The report was passed to Dumbledore verbatim, and when the castle is searched..."
"Soul" seemed to flash through her mind quickly, and when she wanted to catch it, it slipped away just as quickly.
Now is not the time to think.
"Then there are people who are more anxious and panicked than me," she chose the place with lots of leaves to step on, "like a mouse that has been hiding around the youngest son of the Weasley family for twelve years."
When talking about the mouse, Viola seemed She instantly understood who she was referring to, and before she could ask any more questions, Mu Yu continued: "Who can take care of him all the time, and Nagini?" The look she gave her was no longer so polite, " You don't need dementors when the Magical Congress temporarily dispatches foreign personnel. Even an ordinary person can find out something is wrong in less than a month. That rat may not be loyal, but I only need his cowardice. Fear."
"Peter is only suitable for this. He is so cowardly that he needs to rely on the strongest person to survive." Viola was not surprised that Peter had been hiding in the Weasley family for twelve years, and she was right in her words. His contempt, "He didn't have the guts to make his own decision until the last moment."
Mu Yu's eyes shifted to her left hand: "He will." She didn't want to get too entangled in this matter, "They can't find anything in the search." Anything."
That last sentence was the final word.
Seeing that she spoke so categorically, Viola glanced at the jade pendant hanging on her body. There was no sound except the sound of wind and the rustling of leaves when walking. At this time, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "As long as you know what's going on."
Every second she spent with this freak became more torture, and she eagerly took out her wand and tried to apparate away.
"Why did you choose to follow him in the first place?" Fortunately, she hadn't uttered the spell yet, otherwise she would have split up when she was suddenly asked this question. The freak continued to ask as if it was not enough, "I understand the reasons why others follow him. Either to maintain status, or to seek strength or shelter, but you don’t seem to be someone who is completely blinded by power and hatred.”
Mu Yu stood there silently waiting for her answer. People who didn't know the inside story could easily regard her as a child who was purely curious about everything. Her hand stopped on the jade pendant, which directly relieved Viola's worries. : "He's not here."
"You were born too late and didn't see the grand occasion. Everyone who followed him believed that he was an omnipotent god and were willing to sacrifice their lives for him. That boy destroyed some people's beliefs. , but there are still many people who insist on it." Whether Mu Yu was testing or had other intentions, she had already thought of the answer in just a few seconds, "Almost all the truly smart and talented people died in the first battle. Among them, Barty Crouch Jr. is one of them. Unfortunately, some things were kept secret in the past, and I haven't found out where he is. The Ministry of Magic is a pile of rubbish and has basically been infiltrated into a sieve. I originally wanted to quietly bypass Dumbledore. Lido slowly penetrated into other European countries..."
Seeing that Dumbledore could not let the girl in front of her reveal any unnecessary emotions, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "It was Dumbledore who also formed the Order of the Phoenix, trying to keep us out of the UK. "The Order of the Phoenix suffered heavy casualties, and we were not much better." After the initial panic, she finally gained some upper hand, "I thought he would tell you everything, and describe to you the glory of the past,"
she said in the last sentence . There is not much emotion, as if it is just stating a simple fact, but it is enough to cause trouble. After finishing speaking, she also cleverly apparated directly.
After she disappeared, Mu Yu didn't rush back. Instead, he leaned against a tree trunk and looked up to admire the sky split into small pieces by the branches. A fallen leaf happened to fall on the tip of her hair, and she gently plucked it off and played with it in her hand.
She kept staring in the direction where Viola disappeared just now, but with a slight twist of her hand, the leaf instantly turned into powder. She then slowly walked back and rejoined the bustling crowd on the main road.
The meeting with Viola actually didn't take long. She even waited for a few minutes at the door of Duke Bee before seeing Daphne come out. Daphne acted as if the little unpleasantness never happened. She was talking and laughing with a group of people. When she saw her, she waved: "Yu, it's time to go back. There is a Halloween dinner tonight." She
was just on her way back. Even at the Halloween dinner, the two of them never said another word alone.
What awaited them was not a good dream after eating and drinking, but they were forced to go to the auditorium. Being asked to head to the auditorium immediately on Halloween night is a ridiculous thing for anyone to do. The deans of all the colleges in the auditorium were present, and everyone looked solemn.
Apart from Nagini being discovered, Mu Yu couldn't think of any other reason to go to war.
