[HP] Walk in Thorns and Flowers

Lockhart glanced at her with pity, and threw the envelope out casually. He lazily flipped through the "Standard Spells, Elementary" in his hand, and gloated, "Poor Christo, I almost forgot, Hogwarts keeps sending out owls to make sure every little wizard gets an invitation, until they hear back."

Christo just gave him a cold look.

When they got off the car at the harbor, there was light rain in the sky, an owl threw down a letter, but Christo dodged it, the letter fell to the ground, and the sewage on the ground quickly covered the writing on it .Chris didn't even look at it, and strode over.

Lockhart shrugged and followed.They barely made any stops and boarded the boat.Crystal saw the letter again under her milk glass, cursed lowly, and threw it into the sea along with her dinner plate.

In the middle of the night, the sea wind was almost roaring, and the waves were beating against the hull to make a huge roar. Chris couldn't sleep. As soon as she closed her eyes, her mind was full of snakes, and the cold sweat on her head kept breaking out. She always felt a rustling sound in her ears, and finally she couldn't take it anymore, she threw off the sheet and jumped out of bed, and when passing by Lockhart's room, she hesitated for a moment.But she went to the deck alone.

Distraught, she hugged the railing on the deck tightly. The night sky was full of dark clouds, pressing close to the crazily surging dark sea water. The few shaking small lights hanging on the railing and the lights of the cockpit were the only ones in this dark world. bright.She stared blankly at the light, and the sound of the waves and the wind filled her ears, making her feel at ease for a moment—in fact, she wanted to go to Hogwarts, but...

Her eyes went dark, and she curled up into a ball almost subconsciously.The familiar bird's call rang in her ears faintly, as if something had landed on her shoulder, and her wet head was rubbing against her face.She opened one eye cautiously, a rosy face showed a trace of rosy, "Little guy, why are you here?" She patted An Qi's head and looked at it with a smile, "Is it Antel?" Sir miss me?"

"Goo!" An Qi cried out, stretching out her paws proudly, a familiar parchment envelope of extremely large size appeared in front of her eyes, and she took it off happily.The letter was completely soaked, she opened it eagerly and carefully, and read with difficulty by the dim light on the deck, "—Dear Ms. McMillan: We are pleased to inform you that you have been granted Going to school..." She threw the letter out as quickly as if she hit magma, and An Qi murmured in confusion.

A tall shadow appeared on the deck. He bent down to pick up the letter that fell on the deck, and said as he walked towards Christo: "Isn't it just a letter? I don't think this letter is more terrifying than a vampire, Kelly Where did your bravery go, Stowe?"

A bolt of lightning suddenly pierced through the clouds and struck the sea, illuminating the worried Lockhart in his nightgown.

"No, Gildero, please, don't bring that letter here?" Christo said in pain while hugging Angie, who cried out uncomfortably in her arms.She is afraid of snakes, she has always been afraid of snakes.When she saw the slender creature, she would involuntarily think of the feeling of being immersed in ice water close to the skin, the despair of being suffocated by the restraint of hands and feet, fangs, red tongue, and cold pupils.vampire?She wouldn't have lost her composure, but she was just thinking of the creature that couldn't be mentioned, described, or looked at directly!

Boom!Thunder exploded, overwhelming the sound of waves and wind.

"Don't come here!" Christo yelled hysterically, her sanity had been pushed to the brink of collapse by successive stimulations, she grabbed the handrail on the deck and looked around.

"Dear Christophe, I'm very glad that you are going to study at Hogwarts—" Lockhart gave her a complicated look, holding the letter, he almost shouted through the howling sea wind, "West Ferris Snape is a well-known master of potions in the wizarding world, I believe that under his guidance, you will realize your dream—Antle."

"No! No! Where there is such a creature, I..." A huge wave hit, and the huge current submerged Christo, and the astringent and salty sea water suddenly poured into her wide-open mouth. mouth, she couldn't help coughing, and as soon as she let go of her hand, she felt her body being swept away from the hull by the icy sea water, she waved her arms in horror, she heard Lockhart's anxious cry, farther and farther away, finally She only heard the sound of splashing water and the occasional thunderclap...

"Can you bring us a cup of hot tea? It's not easy to take such a trip." Christo felt that she was thrown to the ground mercilessly, and her head hit the cold and wet ground, making her She groaned in pain, and for at least 10 minutes, her head was so dizzy that she couldn't hear any sounds.Suddenly, she felt warm all over her body, and she could feel a little light through her eyelids.

"This is a Muggle I just picked up on the beach." She heard the rough voice again, and she tried to open her eyes.

"Is she all right?" a voice asked cautiously.

"Oh, Muggles are always so fragile, she just choked on a little water."

After a while, Christo felt that her frozen body was warming up. She opened her eyes, and a pair of emerald green eyes invaded her line of sight. The owner of the eyes said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you would wake up at this hour." He helped her up and gave her a cup of hot tea.

Only then did Christo realize that there was a faint lightning scar on the boy's forehead, and she couldn't help but blurted out: "I know you!"

The boy was stunned, and the giant who was grilling sausages was also stunned.

"No, that's not what I meant—" Christo hurriedly explained, "I just think you look familiar." In fact, it doesn't even count as familiar, he can't coincide with any face in her mind at all , She couldn't figure out what she was thinking for a moment, "My name is Christo McMillan, thank you for saving me." When she turned her eyes to the three people in the other corner, she felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird.

The giant gave her an odd look.

"My name is Harry Potter." The boy said in embarrassment. This was the first time he introduced himself to a girl, even though the other girl seemed to be only eight or nine years old. Christo's sapphire blue eyes, Dazzle him.To his surprise, Krystal seemed to be more embarrassed than him——

"I just heard you say Muggles—"

"Shut up, don't mention that word, I'm going to the police station to call the police, you weird guys who broke into other people's houses!" The man in the corner suddenly yelled loudly.

In fact, no one paid him any attention.Christophe frowned, and she slowed down her voice: "Potter, can I borrow your wand?"

Harry rubbed his hands over his jeans. "Oh, sorry, McMillan, I just found out I'm a wizard and I haven't gone to Hogwarts yet." He noticed that when he mentioned Hogg When talking about Woz, there was a little haze in Christo's eyes.

"However, you can ask Hagrid, he is..." He didn't know whether to mention that name again, but luckily at this time Hagrid had finished grilling his sausage, he walked over and handed the sausage to Harry and Kerry Stowe.

"I'm the key keeper of Hogwarts, Rubeus Hagrid, little girl, what do you want a wand for?" He asked, staring at Christo who was eating slowly.

"A little magic, my clothes are soaked, it's really uncomfortable."

"You're too young, and wands are too dangerous for you." Hagrid took a swig of his tea, wiping the corners of his unshaven mouth with the back of his hand.

Christo paused: "Sir, I am actually 11 years old this year." She carefully observed Hagrid's expression, "I have received the admission letter from Hogwarts." Sure enough, Hagrid's expression changed. A little surprised, Harry, who was wolfing down the sausage, also raised his head and looked at her in surprise.

"I was once taught by Gilderoy Lockhart, and I know a little simple magic." She brushed her long golden hair, which was still wet, and raised her head slightly.

"Okay." Hagrid muttered, and he gave Crystal the umbrella in his hand.Christo raised her eyebrows: "Sir, your wand is really unique, it dries quickly." She stood up and nodded at herself, then at Hagrid himself, and waved to the haystack where the three of them were sitting. , she returned the umbrella to Hagrid.She sat down and ate her three sausages in silence.

She really wanted to eat her sausage in silence, but the situation didn't seem to allow that - Hagrid got into an argument with the Muggle man.

"He will definitely go to Hogwarts, his name was entered in the Hogwarts register at birth!"

"I won't agree, I won't give him a penny to buy him any crap!"

"I'll see what you Muggle can do to stop him!"

Christophe frowned helplessly. She was never very interested in other people's private affairs. She stood up and asked softly, "Potter, do you want to go out for a walk?" She didn't wait for his answer, and then She said to herself, "I must have been brainwashed by the sea water, they are talking about you." She quietly stayed away from the center of the quarrel, opened the dilapidated small wooden door and walked out.

Harry looked at her back, and for some reason, he always felt that there was a vague sadness in Christo.
