Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 1084: The fragility of life

? "Cousin Charles?"

"Boom!"

Amidst the crashes, Candice noticed that there were two more figures beside her suddenly, so that she subconsciously screamed again.

"It's okay, I'm here."

The Browns finally arrived in time before the huge creature outside crashed into this aisle. Charles, who was facing the arch with his back, was about to look back after speaking to comfort a cousin, but his head was backhanded by his wife next to him.

"Don't look back..."

Different from her husband, Christine is almost directly facing the doorway because of the position and orientation of the two before activating the door key.

So as soon as she appeared here, she was involuntarily attracted by the huge creature outside the doorway that was hitting the hole.

Almost at that moment, her gaze passed through the darkness, and immediately met the cold and ruthless vertical pupil.

Suddenly, Kristen felt like his heart was about to rush out of his throat, and suddenly beat. There is no doubt that this is the strongest heart palpitations she has ever experienced since she was a child.

The next second, before she could fully react, the palpitations disappeared again. And what disappeared at the same time as the heartbeat was the consciousness in her mind.

Are you going to die? Was killed by that giant snake eye without warning?

No, the husband is behind!

Charles, who used to be on the Quidditch team, was not very reliable, and often needed his own reminders to avoid mistakes. Therefore, this time she should at least do a good job as a wife...

At least, he should be reminded!

"...Don't look back, it's... the basilisk."

In the inexplicably weak tone of his wife Christine, Charles was taken aback for a moment, and then became anxious. Because he knew how terrifying this extremely dangerous magical creature like "basilisk" was.

Could it be... Is it that the two of them have just arrived, and are about to face the separation of life and death immediately?

Soon, I heard a "plop", and his wife Christine next to him fell weakly on the dusty ground.

"Christine!"

When Charles connected the word "bassilisk" to the fall of his wife in an instant, the anger in his heart took a step ahead of fear and quickly occupied his mind.

But in the next moment, Candice on the ground stretched out her little hand and grabbed the hem of Charles' wizard robe.

"...cousin."

In the end, Charles, who became impatient, habitually obeyed his wife's admonition and did not try to look back. Because if it is really a basilisk, if two people are recruited-the wife's sacrifice is meaningless.

"Don't be afraid, I will take you away!"

"Boom!"

Hearing the slight pause behind the impact sounded again, Charles quickly drew out his wand, and hurriedly ran to the other side of the aisle with the three fallen to the ground with a Levitating Charm.

He can't look back, nor will he go back.

Even if he really wants to avenge his wife now...Well, if he didn't have these two children, maybe he would really fight for it, right?

But now, he still chose to escape.

No way, Charles is a typical Hufflepuff. Although he does not lack courage, if he had to choose between the lives of relatives and friends and the anger of revenge, he would still choose the former...

It didn't take much time to cross this aisle, and after turning into a circular passage, they naturally got out of sight of the basilisk.

The basilisk is too big. Although there are many places in the London sewers that are extremely wide, there are still many passages that are difficult for the opponent to squeeze through.

Of course, the premise is that the basilisk has not exerted its full strength!

"Boom——"

For some reason, Charles suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the aisle of Shi Cai.

In fact, just after Charles brought the three of them to this waterway, the basilisk on the other side suddenly stopped hitting the doorway just now.

However, he saw it hissing twice in the same place, then he turned his head and looked into the arch with a huge snake eye, and then he twisted his body abruptly, as if He vented his anger and drew his tail vigorously against the doorway.

Immediately, a large block of bricks was pulled to pieces, and countless gravel and mud buried most of the passage.

Obviously, the impact it just didn't seem to use enough strength at all, or it might have been forcibly squeezed into the aisle long ago.

Then the huge basilisk that collapsed the aisle turned its head again and swam straight forward into the deeper darkness.

Charles, who didn't see this inexplicable scene, is now conducting a preliminary inspection for his wife-no matter whether Christine has been killed by the deadly gaze of the basilisk, he will not just give up like this.

Charles and Christine have only been married for three years, and now is the happiest time for them.

In fact, he and his wife have been thinking about having a baby recently. Even in the past few years, out of consideration of the chaotic situation, they decided to regenerate later three years ago, but after the deaths of Voldemort and Greenward, another Helbo appeared.

After three years of waiting, they could hardly wait any longer.

But, it's all right now... Charles and Christine, the young couple, no longer need to worry about their children.

"Christine..."

Charles hurriedly checked his wife amidst unparalleled anxiety, and then he hugged his wife tightly into his arms.

"Damn...Where is this place? The sewer? Why is there a basilisk here..."

Amidst mixed whimpering whispers, Charles did not forget to wave his wand and recruit two children who had fallen into a coma at some point to his side.

After that, he took out a door key that hadn't been used for a long time and activated it decisively.

In an instant, these four embarrassed figures disappeared without a trace in a wave of spatial fluctuations. Until a moment later, the other end of the waterway shook again, and in a blink of an eye the basilisk swam here quickly.

"His hiss..."

The scarlet and forked tongue, wobbly in the dark.

……

Charles started it. Naturally, it was the door key that Maca left him a long time ago. In fact, it includes the silver bracelet that he originally wore on his hand and the necklace of his cousin Candice, which are also Macato One of the gadgets he went to consign in the black market.

As a "middleman", he just intercepted the original price of the goods on the way.

It's a pity that things are good things, but this time Christine lost his life. By now, he didn't know whether he should regret it or something else.

Suddenly, four figures suddenly appeared on the periphery of Hogwarts, and then all fell on the soft grass either on their backs or on their stomachs.

Charles quickly got up and looked around. After seeing Hogwarts Castle, he knew that it must be the school’s magic that forbids space movement to exclude him.

At this moment, Maca should be somewhere on campus.

After making a judgment as quickly as possible, Charles immediately led the three of them along the outer wall of the school towards the school gate, without hesitation.

Yes, even if he has checked his wife himself, he knows that his wife's body has long since lost its vitality. But when he thought of Maca's past miraculous magic, he couldn't help but give birth to hope.

What if Maca can save Christine back? What if there is still a way?

The gate of Hogwarts is closed tightly, and several protective spells set by Professor Flitwick are attached to it. On both sides of the school gate, there are several family wizards from Fort Blois, France, taking turns guarding.

When Charles came to the school gate, he was also stopped.

"This is Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. If you have an appointment, please show me the relevant letter."

Since graduating, Charles has not been back to school for three years. Naturally, he will not know the many changes in Hogwarts in the past few years.

After seeing that there were wizard guards at the door, and each of them seemed to be very powerful, his first reaction was relieved a lot.

To Hogwarts, Charles and Christine also have deep feelings, and it is naturally a happy thing that the school can grow.

Of course, now he is not in the mood to care too much about this.

"I am an alumnus of Hogwarts, I am here to see Professor Maca McLean... My wife has something wrong and needs his help!"

"Please wait a moment."

The English-speaking guard nodded, then gestured to the other companion in the door. When the latter saw this, he immediately turned and headed for the castle.

The name of Maca, they are naturally too familiar with them.

"If Mr. McLean has nothing to do, he should be here soon, this gentleman, please wait a moment here."

Slightly blunt English ~IndoMTL.com~ has a sense of rigor in business affairs. This attitude will only make everyone feel at ease if placed in normal times, but at this time Charles's ears will become more tormenting.

Every minute and every second of the moment may be related to whether Christine is still saved, which really makes him unable to relax for a moment.

Furthermore, the state of the two children seems not very good, especially the boy who is as old as his cousin, whose breathing has become more and more vacant and mild.

But at this moment, a figure flew from the direction of the castle suddenly, and then steadily stopped in front of the school gate. And almost at the same time, this curse-attached school gate also slowly opened.

"Charles, bring a few of them in!"

Although the wizard of Fort Blois who had been looking for him did not understand English, Maca seemed to have known that he was looking for him, so he beckoned and let Charles pass.

But just taking a look at Charles's side, he frowned and said:

"Kristin... has gone."
