[HP] just lover

September tenth is Lucius' birthday.

He never received a gift from Vanessa.

It will be even more impossible in the future.

He returned to Malfoy Manor from her and stood in his study for a long time before reaching the bookshelf.

He waved his wand a few times, and a hidden box popped out, which contained the first and only gift Vanessa gave him.

It was the bottle of Felicia.

Lucius took out the Felix Elixir and held it in his hand with such force that the delicate and beautiful bottle was almost crushed.

He stared at the Felix Felicia for a long, long time, and finally put it back intact.

He might still not be able to make a clean break, because he was reluctant to take this bottle of Felicia, let alone destroy it.

But at least, he will make her feel that he has really let go.

Lucius took out this year's birthday gift for Vanessa from his pocket. He couldn't personally give the gift to her on July [-]st due to business, and it was unnecessary now.

Throwing the gift into the fireplace in the study room, the flame instantly swallowed the delicate gift box, he thought, let her wish to "befriend" him come true, and take this as his birthday present to her this year.

last one.

The Death Eaters have been much quieter lately.

For the first time, St. Mungo was a little free. Except for a few permanent patients, there were almost no new patients in the Department of Spell Injuries.

Vanessa performed simple routine treatment for Miss Aisha who was still unconscious, and helped Mr. Albert take the potion, then waved her wand to look at the time, and the flashing letters lined up the time in front of her eyes. She found that It's time for her to get off work.

She wasn't going home at noon today, or staying at St. Mungo's, she had other plans.

Instead of St. Mungo's dark green robe, Vanessa put on a cloak, put her long hair behind her head, put on a hood, covered her face with the hood, and faced the magic mirror that had been cursed with silence After taking a photo, I walked out of the locker room with satisfaction and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, on the way away, she met Dumbledore who had always wanted to see.

To be precise, it was Dumbledore who had always wanted to see him, and now there was no need to see him again.

"Vanessa."

Dumbledore took the initiative to greet her, which forced her to stop, who was going to pretend she didn't see it and leave.

"Principal Dumbledore." She looked at the great wizard with white hair, "The magic world is very peaceful recently, and there are no new patients in the Spell Injury Department. What can you do?"

Dumbledore smiled and said: "Just to see the teeth, I think the tooth health potion is no longer effective, Mason probably has a way to alleviate my tooth decay."

Really sweet obsession.

Vanessa nodded slightly as a farewell to him.

She wants to leave.

But Dumbledore said again: "Vanessa, about the thing you asked me last time..."

Vanessa interrupted him directly and said, "You've already rejected me in other ways, haven't you?"

Dumbledore smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but I think this is a good choice for everyone."

"That's true." Vanessa agreed, "I thought everything was too simple, and I promise I won't do such stupid things again in the future."

Dumbledore stared slightly and said, "My child, I don't think you are doing something stupid."

Of course, how could it be considered stupid to want to join the Order of the Phoenix?This is a great thing, but it's a pity that she is not the right person to go in.In some respects, Dumbledore was actually willing to let her enter the Order of the Phoenix, which would allow him to have better control over Lucius. Dumbledore tested Lucius' attitude towards this, and the result was just like this .

"I understand what you mean, principal." Vanessa smiled and said, "It's getting late, I still have something to do, please forgive me and leave first. I hope that when I see you next time, your tooth decay It's ready."

Dumbledore gave her a thankful look, and Vanessa didn't hesitate any longer, walked out of St. Mungo's, out of the crowd, and Apparated.

In fact, Apparition is a very advanced spell, and it is not so comfortable to use it. The feeling of being squeezed and twisted was extremely repulsive to Vanessa when she first came into contact with it, but she got used to it later.

Habits are a terrible thing.

Standing at the entrance of Knockturn Alley, Vanessa pulled up her hood and walked in slowly.

This is where Roxy died.

She still remembered the street where she was tortured to death by that bastard.

When passing by that alley, Vanessa stopped and took a look. There was a filthy wandering wizard sitting there nodding, eyes slightly closed, muttering.

Vanessa withdrew her gaze and continued to walk forward. The bastard who tormented Roxie had long been disposed of by Lucius, and the remaining related parties, except herself, were the Dark Lord.

The Dark Lord who is too powerful to be defeated.

Vanessa could feel that when she was walking in Knockturn Alley, there were many eyes staring at her. She was an adult, not a child, and her magic power was only stronger than that of ordinary wizards. Those eyes that coveted her not worried

She successfully reached her destination.

Bockin Bock Black Magic Store.

This is the largest shop in Knockturn Alley, and it specializes in dark magic items, most of which are very dangerous.Vanessa didn't like to study these things very much before, but not now.

She wants to confirm a conjecture she has always had, and needs to come here to see if there is any gain.

Vanessa opened the store door and walked in, only to find that someone was already inside.

Or someone she knew.

It was Simon Lestrange.

The last time Vanessa saw him, he was talking to Lucius in Diagon Alley.

To say that they met twice in a row is quite a coincidence, it can barely be called fate.

As soon as Vanessa entered, Lestrange found her. He subconsciously opened his mouth to say hello to her, but then he remembered what she said at Lucius' wedding, and closed his mouth with an ugly expression.

"Miss, you are welcome."

The owner of Bojinbok Black Magic Store looked at Vanessa, smiled and said, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

It's not an option to leave now, Vanessa nodded bluntly, stood outside and said, "I'll just take a look, you can entertain other guests first."

Customers who come here usually don't want what they want to buy to be known by others, and the boss knows it very well.He has medium-length brown hair and is a little older, but his eyes are sharp, as if he can see through anyone.

"Of course, please feel free to take a look. You must know that everything here is not to be touched casually, right?"

Vanessa continued to nod, turned her eyes away and stared quietly at the merchandise in the window.

The boss withdrew his gaze and looked at Simon Lestrange: "Then Mr. Lestrange, are you sure?"

Lestrange nodded with a sullen face, took out a few Galleons from his pocket and handed them to the other party. The boss took them and counted them carefully, and said with a smile, "You are welcome to come next time."

Got to go?Very good.

Vanessa pretended to focus on staring at the window, thinking that this embarrassing coincidence would be over, but unexpectedly, Lestrange still greeted her before going out.

"Will...Miss Green." Half of the original surname was called and replaced with Vanessa's current surname.This was arranged by Lucius for her. It is relatively common, and it is difficult to tell whether it is a pure-blood or a mixed-race surname.

Vanessa stood up slowly, turned her head to look at the other party, nodded slightly and said, "Mr. Lestrange."

Bojinbok's boss looked at them with feigned surprise: "So you know each other."

Lestrange said, "We used to be classmates."

The boss looked at Vanessa and his expression meaningfully, and said with interest: "I just have something else, I have to go in and deal with it, you can talk slowly." He was not at all worried that a guest of this status would move around Here's the thing, they sure don't want to be harmed by black magic when they touch those items.

The boss entered the room, and Vanessa relaxed a little. She glanced at the door of the store, but no one passed by for the time being.

"How are you?" Lestrange said with a pale face. "I didn't intend to greet you, but I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back."

Vanessa said indifferently: "It's okay, it's fine, are you leaving?"

She was implying him to leave quickly, and Lestrange's face became even uglier, and he clenched his fists tightly by his side and said, "I'm not in a hurry. I haven't seen you for a long time, you look the same as at school." There is no difference in age." After a short pause, he corrected, "No, you have grown a little taller, and also..." and more beautiful.

He didn't say anything after that.

Vanessa was a little bit repelled to have a long conversation with him. She didn't forget that his "unintentional mistake" put her on Voldemort's list. Without Lucius, she might be lying in the position of Miss St. Mungo Aisha.

"Green." Lestrange looked at her and said, "Can't we be friends? I assure you, it will never happen again."

Vanessa looked at him: "How to guarantee?"

Lestrange said: "I am now... following the Dark Lord. Rodolphus and Bella are not as powerful as I am in front of the Duke of Darkness. If this happens again, I am already capable of protecting you."

Vanessa was not surprised that the Lestrange family had joined the Death Eaters, but she was a little suspicious of what he said.

"Compared to your brother and sister-in-law, the Dark Lord values ​​you more?" Vanessa frowned.

Lestrange said: "Yes, because..." He pursed his lips, "Because I will soon be the new head of the Lestrange family. Father has decided to make me the official heir, and the ceremony will be next month It will be held on the third."

Vanessa couldn't help being a little surprised. You must know that in the wizarding world, the general heir is the eldest son of the family, just like Sirius. Although he has a younger brother, he is the heir of the Black family in everyone's eyes, Simon Lestrange He is the second son of the Lestrange family, and he will replace his elder brother as the heir, which means that he still has two talents.

"Congratulations." Vanessa's attitude was still indifferent, "I wish your ceremony a success."

She wanted to leave first and come back another day. The other party didn't intend to end the conversation, so she had to come by herself.

Watching her leaving in a hurry, Slatrange couldn't help catching up and said, "Wait a minute."

Vanessa looked back, with some impatience in her eyes, Lestrange suddenly didn't know what to say, and said incoherently: "No, I'm actually fine...I came to Bojinbok today to buy something, Because I'm going to Hogsmeade in a few days, there's a meeting there..."

assembly?

The word in his words caught Vanessa's attention, at the meeting in Hogsmeade?A gathering of Death Eaters?

Turning around, Vanessa said casually: "Has Hogsmeade opened any new stores? Are you going to go around together?"

She was able to take the initiative to talk to him, and Lestrange was already very excited, and the IQ he was usually proud of was completely lost at this moment.

"It's not a new store, it's a party organized by..." Although Lestrange was so confused by the woman that he lost his mind, he still chose his words carefully, "In order to accommodate some colleagues who are still studying and who are about to join, So the meeting is in Hogsmeade."

... who are still studying, colleagues who are about to join.

Vanessa suddenly realized.

It seemed that Voldemort was planning to recruit new blood. She had heard that the Death Eaters did not accept underage wizards. What made Voldemort change his mind?

Frequent failure of plans, endless betrayal by subordinates?

"I happen to be going to Hogsmeade in a few days." Vanessa said suddenly, "You know, this kind of gathering is not safe for me. I think if you can tell me the exact date, in Anywhere, I can avoid it."

When she spoke, her tone was gentle, completely different from the previous resistance and indifference. Lestrange was so happy, he took a step forward, approached her and said, "It's not convenient to talk here, let's change the place."

Vanessa glanced at the empty black magic store and nodded.

She and Lestrange entered a tavern in Knockturn Alley, where everyone was messy and dirty, but Lestrange looked very familiar, he was a young master from a pure-blood family, and he asked for a private room with ease. .

Vanessa pulled her hood tightly, not showing her face, and followed him into the private room.

"Now we can talk." He waved his wand, cast the Silence and Ignore Charms, and now the private room was invisible to others.

"Are you going to Hogsmeade too?" He said a little nervously, "Then you must not go this weekend, it is the Hogsmeade Open Day at Hogwarts, students who are about to join the Death Eaters Will come to the assembly on that day, and they will have the honor to meet the Dark Lord there first." Although he had used all the protective spells, he still unconsciously lowered his voice, "It's at the new broom shop in Hogsmeade. building."

Hogsmeade's new broom shop?She hasn't been there for a long time, and she really doesn't know when a new broom shop will open.

Seeing her puzzled look, Lestrange explained: "Oh, it's Mr. Malfoy's broom shop, which specializes in selling the most expensive broomsticks, the latest models, you know..." He paused for a moment. , awkwardly said, "I remember you don't seem to like Quidditch, forget it, I'd better not bring that up."

Vanessa smiled and didn't speak. It seems that Lucius opened a special store for the rally to accommodate the students who can't leave the school at will. He really did his best to help Voldemort and act like a rich man. I believe Dumbledore Lido would also turn a blind eye to this store, after all, to put it bluntly, Lucius is really serving the old principal now.

"Thank you for telling me this, Mr. Lestrange." Vanessa stood up, straightened her hood and said, "I will avoid that day, I wish you all the best, and I will leave first."

Lestrange stood up, looked at her and said, "Are you leaving now? I haven't..." Haven't had a good chat with her, or a drink.

Vanessa apologized to him, put her hand on the doorknob, and before opening the door, she said to him, "You're not going to tell anyone you met me today, are you?"

Lestrange was startled, and immediately said, "Of course not. I will never make the same mistake a second time."

Vanessa stared at him for a while, and after confirming that he was serious, she said goodbye to him again and left without looking back.

Simon Lestrange froze on the spot, staring at the place where she had been sitting for a long time, before pulling his robe away in frustration.

The weekend is coming soon.

Vanessa is off today. Of course, even if she doesn't, she will ask for leave.

She skipped breakfast, counted the time of Hogsmeade Day in her mind, and arrived at Hogsmeade secretly at just the right time.

Hiding in the corner next to the Three Broomsticks bar, looking at the wizards and students walking by, talking and laughing is definitely not the person who will attend the rally today, and Gryffindor can also be ruled out.She finally fixed her sights on the students who were clearly from Slytherin. Among them was a girl who was walking forward with a lonely head. Even when she arrived in Hogsmeade, she didn't change her school uniform. The black school robe was draped over her thin body. , out of tune with the lively atmosphere around.

Vanessa stared slightly, locked on to the target, and followed her silently.

Surprisingly, it didn't take long for her to find her. They had already reached a relatively remote path. The girl turned her head, her face was ugly and distorted, and said to the air vigilantly, "Who is it? What do you want?"

She was obviously bullied a lot, and she was very sensitive to strange approaches.

Vanessa didn't even think about it, she directly apparated behind her and read to her faintly.

The ugly girl passed out without even seeing her face.

Vanessa knew her.

Helen Carter.

She and Snape are students in the same grade, she is a pure blood, but because of her ordinary family background, her appearance is very ugly, her personality is weird, and she is gloomy all day long. She is very unpopular in Slytherin, and almost no one wants to be with her. make friends.

It's true to say that an ugly girl with freckles, a big nose, buck teeth, thin and small eyes, unsanitary, and rough skin has a name that represents a beautiful woman. In school, it's just because of this That's enough for others to laugh at her for seven full years.

As a pure-blood, Helen Carter had a harder life than Vanessa, a half-blood. Vanessa at least had a pretty face, and...Lucius' invisible maintenance, but Helen Carter, she had nothing .

Vanessa pulled out one of her hairs, used the floating spell to take her to a hidden place to hide, then took out her modified compound decoction, put her hair in it, and after mixing, it became the There are colors.

Before coming, Vanessa made sufficient preparations.

If she wanted to sneak into the assembly, meet the Dark Lord, and confirm her guess, she needed a reasonable identity.

This identity should be inconspicuous, and it is best that not many people are willing to approach it, so that it is not easy to be discovered.

She also had to prepare an improved version of the Polyjuice Potion, which could be put into human hair after brewing, otherwise it would take a while to brew the Polyjuice Potion, and it would not be able to keep up with the meeting.

She has to thank herself for learning potions well and successfully brewing the improved potion, otherwise her actions today would be meaningless.

After taking the compound decoction, Vanessa felt that her body was shrinking, and her chest changed the most. It was originally beautifully curved, but now it is flat.There was also a lot of fat on her waist, her legs were shorter, her arms were drawn in a little bit, and her long, blond, smooth hair had turned gray-brown, dirty and inexplicably reminiscent of Snape.

Trembling all over, she swapped the clothes on her body with Helen Carter's. Finally, Vanessa added a petrification spell and a stun spell to her, then tightened her school robe, and followed Carter's example and opened a new door to Hogsmeade. to the broom shop.

When she stood at the door of the broom shop, there were already many students gathered inside, all of them Slytherins, whispering about something.

With a steady mind, Vanessa walked in with a blank expression. As soon as she stopped, she was enveloped by everyone's eyes.

"Look who this is." A haughty boy said disgustedly, "Merlin, why this kind of person is recruited, I still can't figure it out. Attending the rally with her, I feel the lice on her body They're all jumping on me."

Very good, Helen Carter is indeed a member of the Death Eaters reserve, otherwise why would she come today if she never went to Hogsmeade?

Vanessa took a few steps forward, and everyone around her immediately avoided her, as if she was poisonous.

Vanessa glanced at those people, and finally set her sights on those who were still standing there and not avoiding them.

It was Severus Snape.

Snape was wearing the new school robe that Vanessa bought for him. He was about to attend the Dark Lord's assembly today. He cleaned himself up, and his hair was no longer greasy, and his complexion was not so sallow. A bit of a youthful demeanor.

Vanessa walked slowly to his side and stood still.The others sneered, and they were all discussing that birds of a feather flock together.Vanessa's eyes darkened, and she lowered her head even more, letting her long gray-brown hair block her face.

It turned out that she didn't live a hard life.

So what if it's pure blood, Helen Carter's life was even worse.

Vanessa stood there preoccupied. Not long after, a familiar figure appeared at the corner of the second floor. As soon as he appeared, he attracted everyone's attention. It was difficult for people to stare at him without focusing. He was like a glowing The body is dazzling wherever it goes.

"Mr. Malfoy!"

The male student who mocked Vanessa just now stepped forward and said excitedly, "Is His Royal Highness the Duke of Darkness going to summon us?"

Lucius' gray-blue eyes swept across the crowd indifferently, still maintaining the lofty demeanor of the ancient pure-blood nobles.He didn't bother to talk to the young man, he tilted his head, his long hair brushed his shoulders, and then turned and walked back.

Even though he didn't speak, the meaning was obvious - he let them go up.

The male student was very excited, and he was not angry at all that he was ignored. After all, he was the head of the Malfoy family. Isn't it natural for him to ignore him?

Vanessa followed everyone upstairs numbly. As she walked, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

"I smell Polyjuice Potion on you." It was Snape.

Vanessa immediately stopped and looked at him. He looked at her sarcastically and said, "It's a perfect potion, and you act like it too. I hope you won't be discovered by the Dark Lord who knows everything."

After finishing speaking, he quickened his pace and left. Vanessa stopped where she was, and immediately took out the potion prepared for emergencies from her pocket, mixed it and sprinkled it on herself, and then used the drying spell.

That way, the smell of Polyjuice Potion on her would be neutralized, making it look like she just brewed a lot of potions and didn't change her robes.

Vanessa breathed a sigh of relief, and followed the end of the line up to the second floor. Compared with the not-so-big first floor, the second floor is much larger, and probably used the space expansion spell.

Vanessa stood at the end of everyone, with her head down, not daring to look forward.She didn't know if the Dark Lord was already here, but judging from the reactions of those around him, he probably wasn't.

If you're not there, maybe you can continue to see who the Death Eaters are in the reserve.

Vanessa blinked, raised her head silently, her eyes quickly swept over everyone, there were familiar faces and familiar faces, after all, she used to be a student of Slytherin, and she was familiar with all the juniors who had a sense of presence in the college. know.

His gaze finally stopped on Lucius. He was wearing an expensive black robe and a hood. Platinum-blond hair would occasionally protrude from the brim of the hood, making his jade-like face even more fair and handsome.

He is so charming.

Among a group of students, standing upright, graceful and calm, he has the demeanor and charm of a superior.

The Dark Lord suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

With him, there are several adult Death Eaters who have Apparated here.

Among them were the two Lestranges, Rodolphus and Simon, and Rodolphus' wife, Bellatrix.

Lucius took a step forward at the first moment and prepared a luxurious chair for the Dark Lord with his wand.

Voldemort, wearing a blue-gray wizard robe, slowly sat on the chair Lucius had prepared.He was holding a wand in his hand, and his nails were a bit long, with an unhealthy black glow.

A snake fell from his wrist, slowly grew bigger, and wandered among all the students, as if judging something.

Vanessa's heart tightened.

Snape glanced at her, expressionless.

Vanessa was really relieved when the big, thick snake swam past her.

"What a gratifying picture." Voldemort spoke, just like what Vanessa had heard in the Pensieve, low, hoarse, and delicate as a snake, "Death Eaters will grow stronger because of you." He glanced approvingly Pass the family heirs standing in the front row.

All the people he saw were honored to bend down. Lucius stood beside the Dark Lord, looked at the group of young people who thought they had climbed a high branch, and twitched the corners of their mouths mockingly.

"You will be officially awarded the mark at the Christmas party." Voldemort stood up, as if there was a real sight that made some timid students tremble.

Helen Carter in Vanessa's costume is very thin and standing in the back row, Voldemort can hardly see her.

"Then, for the rest of the time, let's hand it over to my most loyal partner, Lucius."

The Dark Lord's appearance today is just to show these students his strength. It is widely rumored in the wizarding world that he is afraid of Dumbledore. This ridiculous rumor has intensified recently.He appeared in Hogsmeade, which is very close to Hogwarts today, just to tell others that he didn't take Dumbledore seriously at all, and that he could even hold a rally under his nose, attracting the greatest Students of the White Wizard join the Death Eaters, don't they?

Of course, Voldemort didn't intend to actually fight Dumbledore in Hogsmeade, and it wasn't the right time, so he didn't stay long. After talking to these children, he left with satisfaction.

Lucius was left behind, along with several others who followed the Dark Lord.

The three people surnamed Lestrange, except for Simon, seemed mentally abnormal, especially Bellatrix.

She seemed to be overly excited, her eyes flicked across the faces of each student, and she said meaningfully: "I really miss it, as if I saw my student days." She glanced at Lucius, "You think so, Lucius? There should be some of your classmates at that time." She said as if ordering her troops, "Let me see—oh, this!"

She pointed her wand at Snape, and Snape looked up, looking straight into her eyes with his usual expression.

Bellatrix was a little surprised, then chuckled and said, "Interesting."

Vanessa's position was a little behind Snape, she lowered her head to reduce her presence when Bellatrix was looking at her, and when Bella turned her gaze away, she said a few more words, and the rest of the others After apparating together, she slowly raised her gaze.

When he raised his head, he met Lucius' cold gray-blue eyes.

"You can go." Lucius opened and closed his thin lips, and said in a long and dignified manner, "See you during the Christmas holiday, future colleagues."

Being able to be colleagues with Patriarch Malfoy really benefited these students.They retired excitedly but respectfully, and of course Vanessa would not stay any longer, she was almost the first to turn around and leave.

What she wanted to prove had already come to fruition when she saw the Dark Lord and the snake, there was no need to stay here any longer, such a risky behavior, once was enough.

Leaving the broom shop, Vanessa hurried back to the place where Helen Carter was hidden.

She took out the memories in her mind, erased the parts that belonged to Snape, injected them into Helen Carter's brain, and then erased the memories of her knocking her out, connected all the memories together, and exchanged the clothes of the two parties.

The time for Compound Potion came just after she finished changing her clothes. After she felt that she had returned to normal a little bit, she bent down and helped Helen Carter up, planning to put her on the side of the road and wake her up again, making her think she just fell down .

but……

As soon as she turned around, she found that everything she had done had been discovered.

Lucius stood upright in the ice and snow. Hogsmeade snowed so early. Look at his black hood. There was a lot of snow, which meant...he had been standing here for a long time.

"It's really you." Lucius stood there, and smiled angrily, "Should I feel sorry for your courage, Miss Green? You actually got the news of this rally, and you dare to appear in this way? Before the Dark Lord... Let me guess, Dumbledore told you? No way. You must have received it from somewhere else... I can't guess anyone else, I can only think of Simon Lestland strange."

Vanessa looked around and said, "We'll talk after I'm done."

Lucius' face darkened, but he didn't refuse.

Vanessa dragged Helen Carter out, and followed the plan.Helen Carter woke up from the snow, looked around, without any doubt, patted the snowflakes on her body and continued walking in the direction of Hogwarts.

well.

everything is normal.

Vanessa felt relieved, and returned to the corner just now, where Lucius was still standing there, his handsome pale face was almost the same color as Snow.

"I'm just here to prove one thing." Vanessa said, "Don't worry, there will be no next time."

"Should I thank you for this?" Lucius lowered his eyelids slightly, and slightly lifted his chin to look at her, "Even if you promise Merlin that you will never do such a stupid thing again, I won't necessarily trust you again. .”

Vanessa frowned, and met again after completely cutting off the relationship with the man in front of her. Even though she had agreed to be friends, she felt uncomfortable after just saying a few words.

Still, she explained: "I ran into Simon Lestrange in Knockturn Alley, and like you said, he told me this. Well, I'll admit I've thought about eating Dead Apostles wreak havoc, but it's so obviously impossible and too dangerous that the thought of it crosses my mind once and I forget about it. There's a real reason why I'm here today. Believe it or not, I really I won't take any more risks. I'm dying more than you think, Mr. Malfoy."

She actually did it perfectly.

Neither the Dark Lord nor the Death Eaters noticed anything unusual.

If he hadn't noticed her, noticed her unusual demeanor, and the familiarity in her eyes, he wouldn't have chased her out to find out.

"It happened for a reason?" Lucius took a step forward, and the snowflakes on the black hood and shoulders fell to the ground. Vanessa looked up at the heavy snow that was falling continuously, and waved her magic wand to keep each other warm. Curse, Lucius paused, turned his head away in ambivalence, and asked her, "What happened for a reason?"

Vanessa answered him: "I still need some evidence to prove it, and I will tell you as soon as I am sure." She looked at the time, "It's almost time, I have to go back, you...be careful .”

The last concern was very jerky, as if she cared about him for the first time, and she immediately apparated after she finished speaking.

Lucius stood where he was, removed her warming spell, smiled sadly, and raised his head to let the snow fall on his face.

The cold can keep him awake and rational at this moment.

Vanessa went home.

She hurriedly took off her robe, returned to the bedroom, and started flipping through the book.

She had never forgotten the diary belonging to Voldemort she had seen at Malfoy Manor.

That's why she went to the rally today to meet Voldemort.

The black magic aura on the diary made her feel extremely cold and evil.

This feeling, which she felt recently while dealing with a serious injury at St. Mungo's, has led to doubts ever since.

The wounded patient was indirectly hit by the Avada death curse, and his soul was almost separated from his body. He lay in St. Mungo's for a long time before being discharged from the hospital, consuming almost half of the hospital's soul stabilizer.

Yes.

soul.

The taste of black magic combined with soul.

It was the smell of the diary, and it was also the smell of Voldemort and his scary snake.

Lucius was in charge of keeping the diary before, and he may have studied where the black magic in the diary came from, but he may not have the opportunity or experience in dealing with patients with separated souls like Vanessa, so he cannot conclude that Voldemort and his What is going on with the black magic aura on his belongings.

As for Dumbledore, maybe he knew after getting the diary, after all, he is the greatest white wizard of this century, but he didn't tell anyone, let alone her.

Vanessa wants to know the truth and do something about it, and she's on her own.

Now that she has nothing to worry about, her feelings have been cleaned up, and her mother is gone, it's time for her to concentrate on doing something.

Of course, her guess may not be 100% correct, and she still needs some evidence to support it. That's why she didn't tell Lucius recklessly that she wanted to make this idea concrete, from beginning to end.

Vanessa didn't have a lot of books, and even less about black magic. She flipped through the books until early in the morning, but couldn't find anything that was right for her.

Frowning, she misses the restricted area of ​​Hogwarts very much now, and she will definitely gain something there.

correct.

Vanessa suddenly realized that Sirius was at school.

She immediately took out the parchment, wrote a letter to Sirius, and bought a double-sided mirror in it.

Hanging something on the owl's feet, Vanessa apparated several places with it before letting it go.

Seeing the owl flapping its wings and flying towards Hogwarts, Vanessa finally relaxed.

She felt that she was getting closer and closer to the real answer.

Just like the distance between the owl and Hogwarts, it is shortening a little bit.

The author has something to say: [-] words, when love is approaching~ compare your heart!
