[hp] Rescue Mr Diggory

After the Easter break, the Gryffindor team defeated the Slytherin team in the final to become this year's winners.

When Mrs. Hooch finished announcing the final result, the scene was quite spectacular. A torrent of red rushed over the fence and poured into the field, and countless hands rained down on the backs of every player in the Gryffindor team. , Then these players were quickly picked up by the excited crowd.

Hagrid, covered with bright red roses, yelled at Harry, who was lifted the highest: "You beat them, Harry, you beat them! I'm going to tell Buckbeak!"

Even Percy was jumping up and down like a madman, completely oblivious to decency.Professor McGonagall cried more than Captain Wood did, wiping away tears with a large Gryffindor flag.

In addition to the Gryffindors, the Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs were also happy about their victory, because Slytherin had offended the other three houses for a long time because of his lack of sportsmanship. It also led to the fact that apart from their academy's own people, there were not many voices in the school who wanted their academy to win the championship.

However, the excitement brought by the exciting Quidditch competition only lasted for a few days, and everyone gradually took back all their thoughts on the upcoming exams.

As June approaches, the days turn cloudless and the sun so warm that one just wants to stroll the castle lawns with pints of ice-cold pumpkin juice, or sit back and watch giant squid swim across the lake.

But this is not possible, the exam is approaching, and the students can't enjoy themselves outside, they have to stay in the castle, forcing their brains to concentrate, and let the tempting summer wind blow from the window.

Fred and George Weasley, who are the most mischievous and mischievous on weekdays, are now sitting obediently in the library and studying hard. They are both fifth grade students like Cedric, and they have to take the OWLs exam, probably because This is related to the future, and they dare not be careless.

Ever since Iris was rejected by Wood, she has decided to turn her grief into strength. Now she is concentrating on her studies and keeping her ears shut. Ian, who was also emotionally traumatized, thinks the same as her.

It was difficult for them to understand why Cedric worked so hard before, but now they study harder than him, and even spend more time studying in the breaks between meals and rest every day, vying to be the hardest Hufflepuff people.

Camelia knew that she couldn't control these two people, but fortunately she could control Cedric not to join their meaningless competition. She asked her boyfriend to combine work and rest in his studies no matter what, Cedric was quite obedient, basically she would agree to whatever she said, but she was often laughed at by friends around him, saying that he had started to experience the life of a married man so early.

However, everyone around them can see that it is an indisputable fact that Camelia and Cedric are getting closer and closer.Since that night together, they've had a few more sneaky tastings of the forbidden fruit since, mostly in Cedric's room, and once somehow they couldn't help it in the History of Magic classroom they often meet privately.

This sounds crazy, but since Valentine's Day, they have been very cautious and private, so they put a spell before each act to avoid being discovered.

A young man like Cedric, who is full of blood, can't help eating meat after eating meat. Although he still behaves like a gentleman most of the time, he also likes to pester Camelia when no one is around, even though he knows that she He will not reject himself, but he still respects her ideas.

Percy and Penelope prepare for the NEWT, the highest degree Hogwarts can offer.Because Percy wanted to get into the Ministry of Magic, he had to get excellent grades, and as the exam drew closer, he became more and more neurotic, and I heard from the Gryffindors that no matter who disturbed the common room at night Be quiet, and Percy will punish you severely.

As for him and Penelope it's not clear if they're on good terms, as they'd avoid talking about it no matter who asked, but they seem to have reached some kind of reconciliation, or maybe it's because of the pressure of the exams , Let them feel that nothing is more annoying than the exam for the time being.

Unlike others, Camelia didn't have to worry about the exam, not only because it was too easy for her who had already passed the exam, but also because it was enough for her not to make any progress in finding Black. A headache, but a good thing had happened, and recently Lupine had shown her something that might help them.

It was a large square of parchment that looked badly worn from the outside, and had nothing on it.But what if you pulled out your wand, tapped the parchment, and said, "I solemnly swear that I have done no wrong."

In the blink of an eye, thin lines of ink spread like spider webs from where the wand tip touched, connecting each other, criss-crossing, and extending to every corner of the parchment; The words appeared, which were large green cursive characters:

Moonface, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs

gentlemen who help magical mischief makers

Introducing

Marauder's Map

The map shows all the details of Hogwarts castle and grounds, but what is most unusual is that there are many small black dots moving across the map, each with a name in extremely small letters, such as It shows that Professor Dumbledore is pacing in the study at this time; Mrs. Norris, the cat of the administrator Filch, is patrolling the third floor;

The greatest convenience of the Marauder's Map is that it can track the activities of everyone in the castle. Even if you wear an invisibility cloak or use other methods to hide your whereabouts, you can still find your trace on the map.That way, the next time Black breaks into the castle, they can just stare at the map to know where he is, but now his name is nowhere to be found on the map, which means he is not in the castle at all.

In addition, Camelia also discovered that there are some passages on the map that she has never traveled and never heard of, and many of them seem to lead to Hodmogg.

"I don't know why it got into Harry's hands. I was shocked that he didn't hand it over. Although several of us knew that Sirius wouldn't do harm to Harry, he didn't give up after so many warnings. My Majesty didn't take this seriously at all, I thought the sound he heard when the dementor was approaching would have a greater effect on him."

Lupine suddenly choked up, "To be honest, I am a little disappointed in him in this matter, because his parents, my good friends James and Lily, sacrificed their lives to protect their son and let him survive. But Harry repays them this way, and he shouldn't have risked their sacrifices for a bag of magic tricks."

He pointed out that Harry, regardless of his own safety, was still so playful and escaped to Hogsmeade Village by the secret passage marked on the Marauder's Map to play.Although it does sound like he is not very sensible, Camelia still couldn't help defending Harry: "He is still young, and it is natural for children to be playful. But Harry is already older than most of his age group." Children are very sensible."

"Yes, but this is far from enough. Because his mission and responsibility require him to grow faster than other children, which is impossible."

After that, Lupine and she introduced the moon face, wormtail, Padfoot and prongs written on this map are Lupine himself, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black and James Potter respectively.He also briefly explained that the map of the Marauder's Point was the masterpiece of the four of them when they were still studying at Hogwarts. The original purpose of developing it was to facilitate their adventures and pranks in the castle.

"At that time, the four of us called ourselves 'predators'. We just thought it was funny. You should understand that most boys are fond of mischief when they are young." The memory of life, "That was the happiest time of my life, with my friends, and I will never forget it."

The poor man's weather-beaten face showed deep loneliness, and Camelia couldn't bear it for a while, "Professor, you will not be alone, you will meet many wonderful new friends in the future, and you have left Old friends we lost are now with us in other ways, we just haven't discovered it yet."

Lupine took a deep breath, and his prematurely wrinkled face gradually stretched into a gentle smile, "Camelia, you are a good girl."

But Camelia shook her head at him, "I really hope that you and Professor Dumbledore can completely treat me as an adult. If you count it seriously, I have been an adult for a long time."

Since Camelia had told Lupine something about her, he knew she came from another parallel time and space.

"But you look like a student now, and in name." Lupine looked at her lovingly and said, "but well, I allow you not to call me a professor when no one is around. I Guess you can call me Remus, if you don't mind, maybe we can be friends, but I think you might not want to be friends with a werewolf."

"Of course I would," Camelia almost blurted out, "and I think you are my best Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, bar none."

The exams were held as scheduled, and the school arranged the exams according to the grade level according to the practice of previous years. Usually, the exams for the senior grades are always the first to be held.By the time Camelia had the last History of Magic exam left, the seventh and fifth grade students had already finished their NEWT exams and OWLs exams.

Because Cedric and the others were in good condition during the exam days, and it seemed that getting a good grade would not be a problem, so there was nothing to worry about.

Considering that Penello, who is a graduate of this year's class, will leave school in June, several girls temporarily decided to have a carnival night before the official graduation ceremony of the seventh grade to practice for Penello, because it was held spontaneously among the girls. At a small gathering, those with companions tacitly left their boyfriends behind.

Even so, Iris saw that she was the only one who still didn't have a boyfriend, so she called Aurora who was also single, thinking that in this way, the other three were inadvertently showing off their boyfriends At that time, she can still have a companion.

One of the privileges of being a senior is to enjoy the most luxurious bathroom in Hogwarts at any time. Penello and April want to show the other sisters so that they can enjoy it too.

The entrance to the prefect's lavatory is by the statue of Boris the Stupid - a wizard with a dazed expression and the gloves on his hands backwards.There are two doors next to the statue, the one on the left is probably for boys, and the one on the right is for girls. If you want to open the door, you just need to lean against the statue's ear and whisper the password: "Fresh pineapples." The door will open.

It may be that the right door is opened by leaning on the right ear of the statue, and the left door is opened by leaning on the left ear, but it is also possible that the passwords of boys and girls are different, but Penello and April don’t know. I didn't try to open the door of the men's bathroom. In the previous time and space, Camelia, who was a prefect, didn't know about this matter. Generally, male and female prefects would not bring it up in this kind of matter. shared.

However, anyone who has seen this bathroom should think that being a prefect is not a bad thing, because it looks so luxurious and comfortable.

A luxurious chandelier with candles cast a warm soft light on the room. Everything was made of snow-white marble, including the bathtub in the middle, which was sunken into the ground. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a swimming pool, if it is only for one person to enjoy, it is too extravagant.There are about a hundred golden faucets by the side of the bath, each faucet has a gemstone on its handle, and some of the faucets do not emit hot water, but fragrant shower gel.

The windows were hung with snow-white linen curtains; a large pile of fluffy white towels was neatly stored in a cabinet in the corner, and on the wall hung only a framed and gilt picture of a fair-haired mermaid lying on a rock. Sleeping soundly, her long eyelashes trembled slightly with every breath she took.

The five girls took a comfortable bath together in the huge bathtub. They chatted while soaking. For a while, the mermaid in the painting was startled by the loud laughter. It opened its eyes and stared at it angrily. Look at the girls who disturbed its rest, but it did not scare them at all.

After Penelope was teased by Iris about her and Percy, she immediately talked about Iris' unrequited crush on Wood. After listening to April, she laughed at her, and saw that Iris didn't go after Penelope first. , and turned to ask about April's love process, but April was shy and refused to reveal anything, so she thought of changing the topic to Camelia, so she told a few people that her good roommate had been married several times during this period. He didn't return home at night, and never explained it.

The few people who thought it was okay forgot the grievances they had just made with each other, and started to educate Camelia together, thinking that she and Cedric stayed together for too long, and they thought it was not good , especially based on the fact that girls are always more vulnerable than boys in love, it is very important to tell her that proper restraint is very important. Yes, for example, it would be bad if you got pregnant at this age, and although Cedric was a reliable person, that didn't completely rule out that it wouldn't happen.

Camelia responded casually, seemingly obediently accepting their teachings, but thinking that Cedric seemed to prefer her to take the initiative, especially when doing that kind of thing.Then I thought about Cedric being an asshole sometimes, her face flushed unbelievably, and Iris, who didn't know what she was actually thinking, saw it, and she also mentioned it casually, saying that she felt that Camille Ya has a good complexion recently, is it true for people who are in love.

For some reason, Camelia felt a little guilty after hearing what she said, so she had to explain to them that her good complexion was just because she was using a homemade mask recently given to her by Audrey from Gryffindor.Although it seemed that she was being deliberate, she was telling the truth. She was indeed using the mask that Audrey gave her recently.Even so, it still attracted Penello's meaningful gaze, while Iris and April were asking if they could ask for more copies, and they also wanted to see if the effect was really that good.

When they were talking and laughing, Aurora was silent all the time. At first, she was alone at the other end of the bath, staring at them and talking quietly. Later, Iris pulled her over, and sometimes everyone talked to her. She would occasionally say a few words, and sometimes she would laugh along with them, but most of the time she looked awkward, especially when they were changing clothes together.

After taking a bath, they originally planned to go to Penello's bedroom to continue the girls' night together, but Aurora said she was going back. Although they tried their best to keep them, she insisted on going back.

Since it was late, Camelia volunteered to send her off.

Aurora declined her offer anxiously, but Camelia said, "It just so happens that Seid is on night watch today. I want to see you off and meet him before going to bed."

As soon as this remark came out, he was attacked by the other three.

Penello said: "You forgot what I just told you so quickly?"

What Iris said was even more interesting, "It's easy for a single man and a widow to be in the same room at night. Although Seid is a man I can trust, but you have to be careful that they are boys. My mother always said that no matter what kind of Men are all wolves and can eat people."

"Remember to come back early, I will hold the door open for you." April did not nag, only a simple exhortation.

Camelia wanted to laugh when she heard what they said, knowing that they were caring about themselves and thinking of themselves, but the relationship between her and Cedric was indeed much closer than they had imagined.

It's just that it's better not to say this kind of thing.

The castle is always very quiet at night. The huge corridor only echoes with the sound of the wind and the footsteps of the two girls. Aurora walked very fast, as if on purpose. There will be a lot of distance from her, and at this time, she always has to remind Aurora in front of her to stop and wait for her.

After catching up with her again, Camelia couldn't help but smiled at Aurora: "Do you hate me? You don't want to walk side by side with me when you walk so fast."

"No! How could I hate you? I like you...no, I don't like...not right, I mean I don't hate you, not at all." Intermittent, which makes people unclear what she really wants to express.

"Do you like it or not?" Camelia said, "But you do seem to be avoiding me recently."

"I didn't mean to do this." Aurora bit her lower lip, calmed down for a while, and hesitated for a long time before she could finish her sentence, "I'm afraid I'm too close to you, and Iris and the others, you will know— —I think you will know this kind of thing sooner or later, and then you will leave me like..., but it should be, I don't blame you. I'm just too selfish and hope you can find out sooner, because you can have friends It feels really good."

"I can understand, because I used to come here like this." Camelia put away her smile and said seriously: "Aurora, can you answer me a question now? If you don't want to say it, I won't force you .”

Aurora smiled bitterly: "I think I already know what you want to ask. But ask, I can tell you, because we are friends, and there should be no secrets between friends."

Camelia suddenly couldn't bear it, but she still asked, "You like Vanessa Hall, right?"

Although she had been mentally prepared for a long time, when Aurora heard Camelia's question, her body couldn't help but tremble.

"Yes, I like her the way you like Cedric, and Iris like Wood, and Penelope likes Percy. I think she told you that."

After she finished speaking, she showed a bright smile. No one knew how much courage it took her to speak. After she finished speaking, she felt relieved. This dark and repressed secret had been stuck in her heart for a long time, and now it was finally Let it out.

"No, I guessed it myself. Hall didn't tell me about it. In fact, she never disclosed it to anyone. I just learned from Iris that you used to be very good friends. And I've noticed from a very early age that whenever a girl touches you physically, you always react like a boy has touched you."

"Since you already know that I like girls, let's break up our relationship from now on. It's time to wake up from this dream. And I have done so sorry things to you, I am no longer worthy of being your friend, it is my wife I'm despicable, I've decided that you won't reject Astoria, so please ask her to invite you to be my friend." Aurora said frankly, "At first I approached you, just to let Wa Nisha is happy, at least after I scare her away like that, I have to give her some compensation. So when I know she likes Cedric, but Cedric likes you..."

Aurora looked straight into Camelia's gray eyes, and said more frankly: "Yes, I once wanted to separate you and make Vanessa complete. But since I came into contact with you, you have always been very kind to me. Friendly, that makes me feel guilty, and you and Cedric are really a good match.. so I guess I can't, but I don't want to see Vanessa upset because Cedric doesn't like her. I'll go to her, I wanted to persuade her to give up, because it seemed that Cedric would not like her, and she should let him go and like other good boys. But she misunderstood, maybe she thought I persuaded her not to like Cedric, because Advise her to like me. But that's not what I mean, I like her, but what I want more is that she can be happy. "

She suddenly put her head in her hands and began to blame herself, "I'm sorry, I think you must think people like me are disgusting, I know it all. But I don't blame you. I'm very happy, thank you, but you definitely don't want to be thanked by such a person. I won't pester you any more in the future."

When the sense of relief of telling the secret faded away, a belated sense of fear hit her, giving her the desire to escape here, at the latest before Camelia opened her mouth, and Aurora thought maybe she would tell Some of what Vanessa told her back then.

But she didn't.

"I think it must be very hard for you to bear so much all this time."

Before Aurora fled, Camelia had already stretched out her arms and hugged her tightly. Before that, she was rarely embraced by anyone, even her own family members, so she was in Camelia's arms. The posture is a bit awkward.

"I thought you would be like her..." She couldn't help but start to choke.

"How could it be? The greatness and magic of love is that it has no reason. Once you fall in love with someone, you can't explain the reason. It has nothing to do with anything. Hall can't accept this kind of love because she Like most people, you can only accept heterosexuality, but you just happen to be different from them, and you love the same sex." Camelia said, "I don't think you are wrong in this matter, and Hall There's nothing wrong with that. You just fell in love with someone who couldn't have any results with you, and Hall couldn't accept that it happened to him that a girl fell in love with a girl."

Aurora said in a very hollow voice: "It's my fault, I thought she felt the same way about me."

"You can't completely take all the faults on yourself, otherwise you will live a very painful life. Don't care about other people's opinions, follow your heart and be yourself. This is not a sinful thing, but you are different from us. .” Camelia patted her on the back lightly.

"I have always been different from other people. What's more, I won't live long. I knew it when I was very young. If all kinds of things have to be borne by someone in the end, then let me do it. "

Camelia couldn't see the expression on Aurora's face at this time, but from her voice, she could hear that she had never been so resolute as she is now.Maybe she has her own ideas and insistence, Camelia can't judge whether it's good or bad, and she can't even figure out her own affairs, let alone other people's affairs. Time has mixed feelings.

"Camelia, thank you. Will we still be friends?"

"Of course, there are Seid, Iris, and they will not leave you just like me. On behalf of everyone, I promise you that you will never be alone in the future." Camelia let go of Aurora , smiled at her: "But you must not fall in love with me because of this, you must know that loving me has no result."

"When did you become so narcissistic? I won't fall in love with you. I just like you between friends. Please don't worry about this." Aurora finally smiled again.

Near a corridor on the third floor, Camelia met Cedric who was on the night watch, and Aurora had already gone back by herself because she felt that it was too much trouble for Camelia.

The moment he saw Camelia, Cedric's eyes flickered with panic, but he quickly grinned, his eyes bent into crescent moons and walked over quickly.

"Miss, at this time, I don't think you should be here."

Camelia raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, "Really? So this dutiful Hufflepuff prefect is going to send me to the professor and let them punish me for confinement?"

Cedric took a few steps closer to her, and now he can kiss Camelia's forehead just by bending over and bowing his head, "I hate to send you to them to deal with. I think we can settle this matter privately." .”

"How to solve it in private? You don't plan to lock me in your room, do you?"

When he said this, Camelia's eyes were clear, and her tone was innocent. Facing her like this, Cedric couldn't help laughing, and lowered his head to gently touch her forehead with his lips. , and then followed her words and continued to make jokes.

"I didn't think so. You said it yourself. But this method sounds good. If you stay with me for one night, it will be considered that you have passed the confinement."

While speaking, one of his hands was already on Camelia's waist with ease, and the other hand was gently placed on the back of her head, asking her to cooperate with him a little bit, and the two exchanged a simple kiss, and then As if he still had more to say, Cedric gradually moved his lips to other places on her cheek.

When Cedric buried her neck and exhaled softly, Camelia's body softened, and she leaned against him as Cedric wished.Knowing that he did it on purpose, she only dared to protest softly, "You are using power for personal gain."

Cedric pretended not to hear, and deliberately said something else to her, "Didn't you tell me to stay with them all night? Why did you think of looking for me again?"

"I just sent Aurora back, and then I stopped by to see you."

"By the way?" Cedric snorted sullenly, "Cami, do you know how sad I am to hear you say that?"

"I don't know." Camelia replied seemingly honestly.

"I think you're saying that on purpose, you little villain. In fact, it's secondary to sending Aurora, and it's mainly because of me. Does she need you to come down here specially? It's not like she doesn't know someone so old. road."

Camelia hesitated for a while, thinking it was better not to tell Cedric about Aurora for the time being, so she hugged him tightly, leaning her face on Cedric's chest, and then she said, "Yes , yes. I miss you, my dear Mr Diggory."

"We're only separated for a short while." Cedric first looked helplessly at Camelia in his arms, then held back a smile and said loudly, "But I miss my Miss Shafik too."

Seeing that Cedric was about to give another kiss, Camelia turned her face away slightly, letting his kiss fall in vain.

Facing Cedric's puzzled eyes, Camelia explained: "We'd better not stay here forever, it won't be good if someone comes later."

"No, generally no one will come to this floor for night tours, and our night watchmen don't often come here, even Mr. Filch. Don't worry too much."

What Camelia said next made him flustered.

"In that case, why did you appear here? Also, do you want to explain to me what happened to the lipstick mark on your collar? Don't say that I rubbed it on it just now. I don't have makeup now, and I don't like this color number, and it is impossible to have such a color. Why did that person come to this night tour?"

Hearing this, Cedric remembered to check his collar, and found that there was indeed a lipstick mark on it. If Camelia hadn't mentioned it, he really wouldn't have noticed it at all, especially now that it is night, where there is no day? see it clearly.

"Listen to me first, okay? I definitely didn't do anything to be sorry for you. I just happened to check around here. Even if it's unlikely that there will be night walks here, it's just in case. It's my duty, isn't it? I don't know why she suddenly appeared in front of me, maybe she just followed me, and you know that there are many girls... In short, I rejected her confession, the lipstick should be when I wanted to comfort her, but she suddenly jumped at me I rubbed it on my body, but I quickly distanced myself from her, and I also warned her not to do this, I already have a girlfriend."

Cedric spoke quickly, lest Camelia might misunderstand him.

"It sounds like you know that person, so can you tell me who she is?" Camelia said thoughtfully.

"I didn't mean to hide anything from you. I'm just afraid that you won't be happy. But... well, that girl is your team's Seeker." Cedric swallowed.

Camelia suddenly realized, "You mean Qiu Zhang? No wonder, you think I will be unhappy when I hear it."

Because Cedric was deeply impressed by the fact that when he confessed his love to Camelia, the other party thought that he had always liked Qiu, so he paid great attention to this later, and tried not to bring up anything related to Qiu in front of her.

"I don't know why she has such a good opinion of me, and I don't think I have done anything remarkable enough to be admired, let alone I was defeated by her." Cedric said cautiously , "So you're still mad at me now?"

"Why should I be angry with you? You are right. It's just that you are more attractive. Even your competitors are in love with you."

Cedric is guilty of what happened tonight, and it is normal for Camelia to be jealous. After all, how can a man with a girlfriend be so careless to let an admirer leave lipstick on his collar It's okay to keep the seal, and he was arrested. Cedric felt that he was very negligent of his boyfriend today.

"It's getting late, I'll take you back."

Camelia said, "Didn't you say you're going to punish me for confinement?"

"Just kidding, how could I really have to punish you." Cedric went to hold her hand, "You have an exam tomorrow, go to bed early tonight."

"The exam is in the afternoon, and it's an insignificant subject like History of Magic."

Cedric didn't think about it, he opened his mouth and said, "That has to be taken seriously."

Camelia had no choice but to be more direct, "I mean, if you don't make too much noise tonight, it won't delay my exam, and it doesn't matter if you delay it."

After figuring out her intentions, Cedric was startled at first, and immediately leaned over with a malicious smile, "You delivered it yourself, don't blame me for being rude. There is also tonight's matter, I will definitely will give you a more satisfactory explanation."

"Didn't you explain it clearly? I believe you."

"You'll know later how much I love you."

The author has something to say:

In the comment section of the last chapter, a reader guessed the plot. In order to provide others with a good feeling, I am replying to that reader here. Congratulations. Maybe I hinted too clearly, but it is time to ask revealed.
