Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2241: Not clear after the rain
The island of St. Martins after the rain is a bit fresher than before. The branches of the leaves are still hanging with unfinished drops of water, shining with crystal brilliance in the morning light. The island is not big, and the sea in the distance can be seen vaguely without looking at it, and it is shining with the sea breeze.
It's just a pity. If it can be sunny on this day, it will definitely be a beautiful picture of wind and sunshine. But the weather these days is either raining or on the way to rain. Even if the rain has just stopped, the sky is still gloomy and hard to see the clear sky.
At this moment, Hermione and Delphi are walking under this unpleasant gloomy sky. It is not very peaceful to want to take a walk and adjust before the coming tomorrow.
The dirt road under their feet is muddy, but neither of them feels much. It can be seen that the muddyness in their hearts is far greater than this small country dirt path.
"Delphine?"
Of the two people who have been silent for a long time, one of them finally couldn't bear to break the increasingly obscure atmosphere between the two.
"Yeah." Delphi replied.
"Delph," Hermione saw her respond, and then proceeded very cautiously, "You...about Maca, you seem to know a lot more than me—it should have been since a long time ago. Of course, although I am curious and concerned, I also know that you and Maca don’t tell me and everyone, there must be your reasons... To be honest, even if I can’t fully believe you, at least I I still believe in Maca’s choice... so I don’t have to chase you for some things."
Speaking of this, Hermione paused for a moment, Delphi saw it, but only gave a soft "um".
When Hermione heard this, she couldn't help showing a wry smile, and shook her head before continuing:
"But... Delphi, is there not even one thing that can be told to me? For example, the time you asked to go to London before, I remember you mentioned it at the time, you said that Maca might be possible Just in London, thinking about it now, you seem to have guessed that Maca is the Lord of the Living Dead since then, right?"
After these words, there was a long silence between the two. Delphi didn't say anything right away, she just stopped and thought for a few seconds, then suddenly raised her head and looked around.
There are two small villages on St. Martins Island, one west and one east. The names of these two villages are also very simple. According to the topography, they are "low town" and "high town".
At this moment, Hermione and Delphi are walking in the high town, which is relatively close to the wasteland in the east. There are not dense farms and houses on both sides of this dirt road, as well as one or two small shops.
Recently, the rain has been frequent, and the way to get in and out of the island has been lost. The villagers are nesting in their homes, and naturally none of these shops are open.
Delph caught a glimpse of a small broken bar on the side of the road. On the surface, it looked no different from the nearby houses, except that there was an old wooden signboard with wine glasses hanging under the eaves, which made it inconspicuous. identity of.
Looking in from the window, you can find that the owner of this small bar is cleaning up some of the cups and plates left by the noise of last night. It seems that the villagers in Gaozhen have nowhere to go these days, but the bar is more prosperous than usual.
After a glance, Delphi turned to look at Hermione and said:
"Sit down and talk?"
"There is no need to disturb others, right?"
Hermione hesitated. After all, she had always felt sorry for the Muggle residents on the island just by choosing this island as the place for negotiations with the Lord of the Living Dead. If there is a fight at that time, these residents will probably be the hapless side.
It's just that the wasteland on the east side of St. Martins Island is flat and open, which is very suitable for the arrangement of large rune patterns. In these three days, she didn't have many better choices.
However, after the idea that she didn’t want to disturb the residents for the first time passed, Hermione glanced over the beer peg on the signboard, and somehow suddenly wanted to drink a cup of fragrant butter. beer.
I don’t know if there is any.
Thinking about this, Hermione finally nodded and said softly:
"Then...Okay!"
"Click."
This small bar, which had been closed early this morning, opened the door again to this special pair of guests. Delphi took the lead to walk in the door, stepped on the old wooden floor, and said " "Crunch" with a soft sound.
"Confused—"
Before he waited for the barkeeper who was wiping the table to speak subconsciously, a confusion curse fell on him, and the Muggle owner with a moustache froze there. .
Hermione who came in behind saw this and slightly pursed her mouth, then hesitated and said:
"Boss, do you have butter beer here?"
……
This small bar in the town on the island does not have butter beer, which is natural. After all, this kind of drink can be made at home. The residents on the island are also used to a slow-paced and hands-on life. The shops on the island, including this bar, have always only entered from the outside of the island and cannot make it by themselves. thing.
Hermione and Delphi were sitting in the seats by the window, each sipping the wine they hadn't drunk much, and they were quiet for a while.
Hermione is waiting, and Delphi seems to be waiting for something.
After a while ~IndoMTL.com~, Delphi subconsciously touched something hanging next to her chest, and then she slightly lowered her eyes and spoke quietly:
"Miss Granger, I remember I said before that there are some things that I can’t say. I know that it may not be fair to you to say that. After all, the hard work you have made these days What is for, I also see it in my eyes."
"It's okay," Hermione shook her head, put down the wine glass in her hand, and smiled more or less reluctantly. "It's like before everyone dared to call Voldemort by name. At first I just thought It's people's fear-many people seem to think so. But in fact, Voldemort has also studied the magic of names. He imposed a spell on his name... This is probably the reason why people began to avoid him. The original reason for the title. So you don’t want to say, I can at least understand it."
Similar things like this, there are actually many in the history of magic, so in the magic world, the word "secret" often represents more than the secret itself, which may hide the danger of losing your life. .
"At least you must have no ill will to me or to all of us, because you are Maca's friend." Hermione said at the end.
