No.24 Um... a certain creature. (1)

In the past holidays, there was always a warm welcome from Hogwarts students, but this year it will not be the same.The farewell between classmates always reveals a reluctant taste, and almost everyone is smiling.The dignified atmosphere not only lingered in the magic school, but even the entire magic world seemed to be invaded by dementors.

Selah didn't see Zachary and... Malfoy until the holiday. Professor Snape's labor service was also temporarily cancelled. Although Professor Black returned to Hogwarts, he did not continue to provide extracurricular tutoring for Selah. I felt sorry, and said that because of some personal affairs, I have been very busy recently, and everything will return to normal when the next semester starts. Qiu Zhang scoffed at this, saying that the scars are healed and the pain is forgotten.But at the same time, these two people also began to lose sight of each other.

Almost everyone has fallen in love with the game of missing.Saila felt very depressed about this, and the only company with her was Annie, but she seemed to be in a bad mood recently, after the mysterious man came back.Not even Sierra was happy.Immersed in such an atmosphere every day, Sierra was almost overwhelmed. It might be better if the sky fell, she hated such a situation.

But no matter what, Sera has to plan for herself.

She didn't want to leave Hogwarts this holiday... or rather, she didn't want to go home - there was no one there anymore.Before "he" summoned her, she had no way to get in touch with "him", and she was grateful for this, but also a little worried.

The day before the end of this semester, Sera was really relieved after confirming that there would be no unidentified letters.She came to the door of the principal's office and straightened her clothes - the other party was the greatest white wizard in the world, and she must not be rude in front of him, she had to appear educated, dignified and polite.

She nervously moved the tie around her neck left and right, but she couldn't find the right position, "Um... hello, Principal Dumbledore...or is it more appropriate to call him the principal? Hello, principal...will you Will it look too reckless?" She can't be blamed for being too nervous, she always has a natural fear of the strong, "Forget it! Cough cough... Hello, principal..."

"Oh...what's the matter?"

"I think..." She stopped suddenly, and raised her head suddenly, her blue eyes were filled with panic.

The door of the office opened when she was in a daze. The bright colors in the room made her feel a little dazzling, but what made her speechless was the situation inside.

Principal Dumbledore sat at the desk and looked at her, his kind eyes came out from under the half-moon glasses, "Don't be nervous, come and taste this." He waved to her, and then pushed the small plate of candies in front of him , "Lemon whipped toffee, tastes good."

Sierra twitched her index finger uneasily, and walked in cautiously, with very light steps, as if she was afraid of accidentally stepping on a hidden bomb.Under the direction of Headmaster Dumbledore, she pinched a small bright yellow fruit and squeezed it into her mouth against her lips. The sweet and refreshing taste made her eyes shine.

"Can I help you, Miss Morris?" Dumbledore asked.

Sierra became nervous again, and stammered, "I would like... Excuse me... Hello, Mr. Dumbledore... No! Headmaster, I would like... Can I apply to stay in school?"

After finishing speaking, she found sadly that she had forgotten all the words she had muttered in private for a long time, and she thought her performance was extremely poor.

Dumbledore filtered her words, "You don't want to go home? If you can, can you tell me the reason?"

"Yes." Saila nodded hurriedly, "My parents... they have traveled abroad, and if I go home, I may not be able to take good care of myself. And... my grades are always bad, I hope Staying at Hogwarts, the things in the school are very helpful to me."

Merlin bless, the brain finally returned to normal.

Dumbledore leaned back in his chair, thinking carefully, and this behavior made Sierra look at him with anxiety and expectation.

After a long while, he said: "I'm sorry, Miss Morris. If it was in the past, I would have agreed. It's just a matter of lifting a finger, but... the magic world is not safe now. Compared with here, ordinary people's The world is relatively safe. Forgive me for not being able to grant your request."

"Wait..." Saila said quickly, "I promise, I will never leave the castle!"

"However, professors rarely stay here during vacations. Hogwarts' defense alone is not enough. We cannot provide you with more protection." Dumbledore said regretfully, "You are the only one who applied to stay in school this year. of students, everyone thinks it’s safer to stay at home.”

Sera pursed her lips tightly, unable to find any reason.She knew he was telling the truth.All the students thought that... where there is a white wizard and a savior, they will receive "special care" from the black forces.But at the same time, they will feel that the existence of these two people can save the situation.

The savior often coexists with the disaster star.

Contradictory and reasonable facts.

..................................................................................................................

Going home is not something to be happy about for Saila—she not only has to face a cold and empty house every day, but also has to deal with the care and greetings of the neighbors around her at any time.

"Haven't Mr. and Mrs. Morris come back?"

"Well, yes, they're traveling in Italy."

"Really, they don't worry about leaving such a child at home! If you need any help, come to me next door."

"OK, thanks."

"When are they coming back?"

"Should be soon...if they don't plan to go elsewhere."

night.

Sierra sat wearily on the swing, shaking her body absently.It was a small abandoned park, and Sera remembered it being quite lively as a child.It's a pity that a playground was built not far away, and the popularity of this place gradually disappeared.But for Saila, this place has become her own exclusive territory.Mom and Dad are always here to play some childish games with her, and pretend to enjoy it.

It was only halfway through the holiday, but Sara couldn't take it anymore, and she missed Hogwarts terribly, a place where she could have someone to talk to.

Or should buy a pet.she thinks.

But she immediately dismissed the idea. She couldn't feed any living things, and the cactus would be killed by her, let alone that kind of jumping animal.

But... what if the vitality is more tenacious?

The chill of the night made Sera shiver uncontrollably. She rubbed her arms and decided to go back.

As if Merlin and God heard her heart, Sara saw a little thing at her door.

White, a small ball, curled up in a corner to sleep.

Very cute.

Sara held her breath, tiptoed, and approached it cautiously. Sara couldn't recognize what kind of creature it was. Its tail was fluffy and beautiful, but it had a bit of a mischievous eye.Maybe a kind of rat.

Sai La looked at the door of her house. Could it be that this place has been abandoned enough to attract animals to live together?Obviously she cleans it well every day!She pouted aggrievedly.She stretched out her index finger and gently hooked its little ears, which immediately caused a slight tremor. Then, it moved its little head and buried it deeper into its tail.

This kind of behavior tickled Sierra's heart.

Saila gently picked it up, not daring to use too much force, lest it wake up in pain, or too little force, lest it run away in fright.After one movement, she felt that her forehead was sweating slightly.It wasn't until she held it firmly in her arms that Sierra felt relieved.She freed one hand to open the door, but she almost stumbled on the door because she was staring at the things in her arms.

She sneaked into her room on tiptoe, not even daring to turn on the light, like a thieves, she didn't dare to let herself breathe until she put some creature on the bed, God knows she was almost suffocated just now !She couldn't wait to close the door of her own room and locked it, then quickly closed the window and drew the curtains. She looked around to avoid missing anything, until she blocked the edge of the door with her clothes uneasy Stop—she knew it was stupid, but she just couldn't help it.

Realizing that the room was too dark, she reluctantly turned on the desk lamp, then knelt down on the carpet, lying on the edge of the bed, and carefully looked at the little thing in front of her.

The snow-white fur glowed softly, the small eyes were tightly closed, the black nose was slightly dry, and the beard next to it trembled with its breathing. Saila remembered that a dog's nose would be dry if it was dry. It means they are sick. I don't know if it applies to all animals.There was a faint flesh color in the small ears, and they trembled from time to time.Saila stretched out her index finger, and gently brushed its back with the pulp of her finger. It was fluffy and slippery, which made her feel elated.

"I heard that rat-like creatures are tenacious." Saila said softly, her eyes bent into a beautiful crescent shape, "Just stay with me for more than a month. I will treat you well... just like a mother treats her own children, Believe me, I will work hard to let you live a good life. You have to be obedient...or not, it doesn't matter, as long as you stay. I will do my best to be a good master."

She couldn't help smiling, and then laughed even more when she realized that she was laughing like an old hag.

Then a creature in sleep shuddered.

She needs a living thing to keep her company.

And can continue to live in her hands.
