Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 607 I Love You Too

For three days in a row, Magatha followed Mo Lin's side, whether it was in class or eating, she never left.

Mo Lin didn't talk very much. He hardly spoke in the past three days, not even a word with Magatha.

Once there was no class, he would sit outside the balcony on the second floor, staring at the astronomy tower in the distance in a daze.

Principal McGonagall and Professor Francis have both looked for him, and they all want to know whether Mo Lin knows the whereabouts of the stone arch.

But Maureen's answer was simple: "I don't know."

He was calm, eerily calm.

If he wants to protect a secret, no one can do anything about it.

March NO.15, afternoon.

"Tomorrow evening is what Professor Singer said."

Magatha and Maureen returned to the castle after finishing the last herbal medicine class of the day.

Mo Lin didn't go to dinner, he still walked up to the second floor silently.

The setting sun had already set in the west, and the afterglow of the twilight was shining on Hogwarts, coating the castle with a layer of golden light.

The clouds in the sky were very red, as if they were on fire, so shockingly red.

"Are you really not considering asking the professor for help tomorrow?" Magatha asked standing behind Maureen.

Maureen shook his head.

Magatha sighed worriedly. She has been persuading Mo Lin for the past three days, almost twenty times.

But Maureen always refused.

Mo Lin looked away from the sunset in the sky, and asked softly, "Magatha, have you ever been deceived by someone you trust?"

Magatha hesitated for a moment and said, "No one can fool me except you. I have been able to figure out whether what others say is true or false since I was a child."

She is a gifted arithmetic fortune teller. She has special arithmetic magic since she was a child. No one can fool her. She can easily see a person very clearly.

Until she met Maureen.

"So you won't understand how I feel." Maureen whispered.

Magatha wanted to speak, but didn't know how to answer.

She felt an inexplicable resistance from Mo Lin. Mo Lin was clearly standing in front of her, but she felt that she seemed to be far away from Mo Lin, as if separated by an insurmountable gap.

"Yes, I can't understand it."

Magatha can figure out whether anyone is lying, and she is not afraid of being deceived, so she is doomed to not understand what it feels like to be deceived.

"It's uncomfortable being cheated on by someone you trust."

Maureen said slowly.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to see you and him come to this point." Magatha said.

"I don't want it either." Mo Lin looked up and looked at Magatha: "But I understand one thing, true trust is worth protecting with life."

"What does that mean?" Magatha asked in surprise.

"It's nothing." Mo Lin stood up and said calmly, "Let's go! I'll take you back."

Then he's going to do something.

Magatha found Maureen's tone strange, and she seemed to realize something.

-

Second floor, infirmary.

An Ran was standing at the railing. She had just finished her meal and wanted to come to the school infirmary to see if she could help, but there were very few patients in the school infirmary today, so she had nothing to do, so she stood on the railing , looking out the window in a daze.

She didn't look for Mo Lin these days, but occasionally looked at Mo Lin's back in a daze.

Someone took her hand from behind.

An Ran was startled, turned around and saw Mo Lin's gentle face.

"Maureen, you..."

An Ran looked at Mo Lin in surprise.

Mo Lin looked at An Ran's preoccupied look, and he hugged An Ran gently.

"I know what's on your mind."

Maureen said softly.

An Ran originally wanted to break free from Mo Lin, but for a while she didn't have the courage to do so.

"I thought you and Magatha..."

"I have always been classmates with her and have no other relationship."

Mo Lin lowered his head and whispered in An Ran's ear, "I like you too."

He said this sentence, this sentence he had never had the courage to say before.

An Ran was stunned all over, her heart was beating fast, as if something was jumping in her chest, which made her feel inexplicably happy.

But behind the joy, she suddenly felt flustered. She didn't know where this flustered feeling came from, and it came out of nowhere, which made her very scared.

Mo Lin let go of An Ran, and looked at An Ran's long eyelashes, those eyes were so pure that Mo Lin couldn't bear to look away.

"Are you okay today?" An Ran lowered her head blushing, she asked softly, "Why are you so weird?"

"There are things I need to say," Maureen said.

——Because I'm worried that I won't have a chance to speak out in the future.

An Ran was a little overwhelmed, she was obviously very excited, but she was inexplicably worried.

"From the first moment I saw you, I fell in love with you, but I never dared to say it. I thought we were still young, and I wanted to tell you when I grew up."

Mo Lin's heart was also beating with An Ran, An Ran was so simple, it made his heart tremble.

He wants to stay by Anran's side forever and protect her all the time. He likes to see Anran running over like a carefree elf every day, telling Mo Lin what magical spell she encountered today, and how she is. how to solve it.

Just wait another two years, when they are all grown up, he will tell An Ran what's on his mind.

He thought he could wait.

But he couldn't wait any longer, he didn't want to leave regrets.

"Maureen, I..."

An Ran looked at Mo Lin's eyes, Mo Lin's eyes are very gentle, she likes to look at Mo Lin's strange eyes, looking at them, she always feels inexplicably at ease.

Mo Lin lowered his head slightly and kissed An Ran's forehead.

The last rays of the setting sun fell on the two of them, outlining the silhouettes of the two of them. The shadows stretched very long in the corridor, intertwined together, looking so quiet.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment.

This was the first time he kissed An Ran.

—maybe for the last time.

The last rays of the setting sun disappeared from the sky, and the moon slowly climbed up the treetops.

An Ran raised her head, as if realizing something, she asked softly, "You won't leave me, will you?"

"Never."

Mo Lin smiled, raised his head again, and looked at the moon that had just climbed up the treetops. The moon was as bright as a round of white jade, flashing in the sky.

He will always guard her, no matter where he is.

"The moon is beautiful tonight," Maureen said.

An Ran also turned around and looked at the moon in the sky.

"I'm sorry, I don't know if I can come back, if I can't—"

Mo Lin looked at An Ran's back, feeling like a knife was piercing his heart.

An Ran looked at the moon in the sky, she seemed to see something in the moon, there were sparkles in her eyes, she stretched out her hand to keep it, but there was no way to grab it.

Mo Lin turned around slowly. He lowered his head and buried his face in the darkness. No one could clearly see his expression.

He knows what the truth is, and he is going to end it all with his own hands.
