All things are three at Hogwarts

Chapter 825 The Apprentice

Early the next morning, the sky was not completely bright yet, and the dim sky cast its shadow over everything.

In Godric's Hollow, some houses stand on both sides of the narrow alley. Some lazy people's Christmas decorations have not been removed in the windows and are shining brightly. Not far ahead, the golden street lights that have not been extinguished show that this is the center of the village. There are several shops, a post office, a pub, and a chapel in the center of the village. According to the History of Magic, the cemetery outside the church is engraved with the surnames of the ancient wizarding families. The chapel here has also been used for many centuries. There are endless ghost stories.

Godric's Hollow is named after Godric Gryffindor was born here, where Bowman Wright built the first Golden Snitch in the Middle Ages, and where at least one member of the Peverell family last died. Resting place.

Godric's Hollow has been home to many famous wizarding families. The Dumbledore family before Albus Dumbledore's sister Ariana was killed, and Bathilda Bagshot, the author of A History of Magic who was also Getterl Grindelwald's aunt, lived in this village.

Of all the wizards who have lived here, Harry Potter is probably the most famous because when he was just a baby, he survived Voldemort's Killing Curse and caused the Dark Lord to lose his life for the first time. strength. From then on, Harry Potter was known as "The Boy Who Lived", and the village became famous again.

Outside a three-story house whose garden seemed a little desolate due to the season, the ground was hardened by a layer of black frost. Alan and Hermione walked along a gravel path lined with currant bushes on both sides and walked to a door.

Allen knocked on the knocker on the oak door, and soon there were footsteps. The door creaked open, and a plump young woman looked at them.

"Hello, Mrs. Olive Avery..."

"Miss Hermione Granger and Mr. Alan Harris, please come in quickly. Pluto will be very happy to know that you are coming."

Before Allen could finish his introduction, he was greeted into the room by Olivo Avery, who recognized the person. She barely used the etiquette she maintained to cover up her sadness. She looked at Hermione with complicated eyes and a hint of relief. This was the little Muggle-born witch that her husband, Pluto Mulciber, had to save, risking his own life.

The corners of Olivo's bitter mouth turned up, and as soon as a tear slipped from her cheek, she turned around and whispered: "Pluto would be very happy to see that Miss Granger is safe now..."

A skillful robot took Hermione's coat and hung it on the hanger hook. Olivo, who turned her back and had red eyes, let the two of them into the room. The decorations and furnishings in the room showed that they had spent a lot of time together. Not bad, very cold. Although there were coals and wood burning in the fireplace, it was not very strong. A cradle with a baby in pink clothes was not far from the fire.

After Mr. Skillful Hands finished hanging the clothes, he planned to make tea for the guests, but Olivo stopped him and planned to do it himself and asked Mr. Skilled Hands to take care of the cradle instead. But Olivo was just standing to prepare the teapot when The baby in the cradle began to cry because he was usually cared for by his mother's hands and was not familiar with the skillful robot.

Olivo didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly picked up the child and rocked it gently. In the mother's arms, the little guy gradually stopped crying. His little hands tightly held the mother's skirt, and occasionally sobbed.

"Sorry, there are only two of us at home now, so I was neglectful." Olivo's eyes were red, her brown hair was messy and seemed to have not been combed, her eyes were red and swollen, and her face was haggard.

"Mrs. Avery, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If Pluto hadn't saved me, he wouldn't have...leaved you." The corners of Hermione's mouth could no longer resist the downward trend, and her eyes instantly Jingying, "He and Pupai are not even on duty... I couldn't even say a word of thanks to him."

Olivo hugged the baby in her arms tightly and leaned against the wall. She stubbornly made her voice sound even more proud of her husband: "Protecting others is Pluto's duty as an Auror. I believe that even if he is not qualified, Miss Granger, I believe he will also come forward. Miss Granger does not need to feel guilty."

"Mrs. Avery, I think...I want to invite you to work at the Umbrella Company." Hermione took a step forward and leaned slightly forward to get closer to Olivo. She was afraid that the other party would refuse out of affection and held Olivo's hand. arm, "Please don't misunderstand Mrs. Avery, your n.e.w.t took seven o's. This is not compensation. I wonder if I will have the honor to work with you?"

"Thank you, Miss Granger. I have heard about the great prospects of Umbrella Company and the good employee benefits and benefits. However, my family is also running the planting industry. As the sole heir, I must shoulder my responsibilities." Livo politely rejected Hermione's offer of compensation. As the Everly family of the twenty-eight sacred tribes, although the wealthy family suffered some decline due to the clan members following the mysterious man, Olivo has not been too obsessed with money since she was born. Worry, even if the Ministry of Magic's material compensation for this matter is not included, the quality of life of her and her children will not decline. She has no intention of going out to work, but wants to spend as much energy as possible on educating her and Blu. On top of the child in care.

"Mrs. Avery, did Pluto leave a portrait of himself?" Allen, who was silent beside him, asked softly. For wizards, except for the portraits of famous people whose personalities are instilled by painters, most private portraits are It is kept by the wizard himself, and his memories and thoughts are transferred to the portrait in a private process. This kind of portrait is usually locked in a cabinet for safekeeping, and will not be taken out until the person dies.

"Yes, he prepared a portrait for himself on the first day he became an Auror." Olivo patted the baby gently and led Alan and the others into his bedroom.

On the wall opposite the bed in the bedroom, there was a portrait of Pluto wearing an h94 uniform. Pluto in the portrait immediately stood up from his chair when he saw them, trying to squeeze out as much of a look from his naturally ferocious face as possible. Smiling, "Miss Granger, Master Harris, thank you for coming to see Olive."

"Pluto, I'm sorry." Hermione looked at Pluto in the painting, the guilt in her eyes seemed to be burning her like a flame. Hermione turned her face away and saw a piece of men's clothes on the bed. The clothes were stuffed inside, as if a person was lying there.

Noticing Hermione's eyes, Olivo said uncomfortably: "I can't sleep at night, as if Pluto is still with me."

Hermione was always eloquent and eloquent, but at this moment she was completely speechless.

However, as Allen took out his soul, Olivo's eyes were instantly attracted by Pluto's face flashing across the gem.

"Pluto is in there?" She could no longer keep her voice steady, and her brown curly hair hung loosely on her neck.

"Yes, the devil made Pluto into the soul gem. For some reasons, Pluto's soul is actually much safer staying in the world than going to the kingdom of death. I asked his opinion. Although he failed to become Ghost, but I am also willing to stay with you in the mortal world." Allen spread out his left palm, and the soul gem floated quietly on his palm. Allen's five fingers of his right hand spread out and made a grabbing movement. On top of the soul gem, a trace of soul energy was slowly drawn out of the damaged soul gem. As Allen gently pulled this energy, it slowly moved up from the palm of his hand and poured into the portrait on the wall.

After leaving the soul gem, Pluto was stunned for a moment in the portrait, and then he was awakened by Olivo's suppressed and sad sobs. He turned to the outside of the portrait and said with his palm: "Olivo, I'm back."

The soul gem in Allen's hand has turned into powder. Although the Pluto in the previous portrait can communicate and have the ability to think, he has no soul. The Pluto in the painting now is the real one. He stayed with Olivo.

Pluto's actions made Olivo unable to restrain himself any longer, and tears burst into her eyes. She stroked Pluto's cheek in the portrait, cried sadly and leaned against the portrait. Pluto's eyes dropped, but his outstretched hands could not hug his wife. His open fingers gradually closed again, and he turned to Ellen. and Hermione, "Master, thank you for letting me stay with Olivo... How is Poppy's situation?"

"Pluto, we will remember everything you did for Hermione. Poppy will do the same and I will draw a few extra ones, such as asking Ms. Rosmerta to hang them in the Three Broomsticks Tavern. You guys You can go there to get together when you are free..." Allen looked at the little baby in Olivo's arms. The little baby seemed to feel his father's return. He opened his toothless mouth and smiled happily, waving his little hands and feet. Allen He promised, "What a cute baby. When she grows up, I will personally teach her magic."

Olivo finally stopped crying, but because she was overly sad just now, her emotions had not completely calmed down. She was still sobbing when she spoke. After hearing Allen's words, she quickly thanked him.

For Olivo, the generous pension from the Ministry of Magic and the high position of the Umbrella Company are far less comforting than this portrait, not to mention that Alan Harris, who can drive away the mysterious man, promised to teach him personally. Baby, although Allen, as a Hogwarts professor, has taught many students, the promise here is obviously an apprenticeship like the more traditional method of wizards in ancient times.
