[hp] Rescue Mr Diggory
Chapter 78
Not long after class started that day, it suddenly began to rain heavily outside, and the raindrops hit the closed windows of the classroom densely, making a sound like beating gongs and drums, which undoubtedly affected the classroom, because The students couldn't hear their Muggle Studies professor's lectures very clearly. At this time, even the students sitting next to each other had difficulty talking to each other.
Looking at the gloomy sky outside the window, Camelia, who was standing on the podium, immediately stopped lecturing, and gracefully waved the magic wand in her hand. At that time, almost everyone present thought that the young professor wanted to teach herself Cast a sound amplification spell, because the class can only continue if it is louder than the sound of the rain outside.
Unexpectedly, a line of clear and eye-catching characters appeared on the blackboard that was originally filled with important Muggle inventions in the 20th century: "Sit still and listen to the rain".
Just when some students were guessing what kind of riddle it was, they saw that their professor had sat down calmly and made a booing gesture to her group of confused students, and then she pointed to the window direction, motioning them to listen carefully.
So the whole class listened to the sound of rain for most of the class with the young professor in a daze. Even when the get out of class was over, the rain outside never stopped.
Some studious students ran to ask after class why they were asked to listen to the rain in class, but Professor Shafik, who is always willing to help students answer difficult questions, said that he asked them to ask their hearts to listen to the rain at that moment. What did you see, what did you think of.
Some students were relieved after learning that it had nothing to do with the exam content, and left contentedly, but some students were dissatisfied with Camelia's seemingly hypocritical attitude, but they dared not complain to their peers until they walked out of the classroom If you think about Professor Shafiq, you are lazy and don't want to go to class. In this case, it is better to let them finish class early.
The rain didn't stop until night. At night, Camelia was so disturbed by the sound of the wind and rain outside that she couldn't fall asleep. Not long after the clock struck midnight, she got up, put on a coat, and went out lightly. After leaving the teachers' dormitory, she knew that at this point in time, the entire castle fell into a deep sleep.With the faint fluorescence from the hair of the wand, she came to the corridor where the portrait of Cedric was hung, stopped to look at him in the portrait, then took a step back, bent down, and slowly moved with her arms around her knees. He sat down leaning against the wall opposite the portrait.
"It's raining outside." She said to Cedric in the portrait, but the portrait that hadn't injected a little soul would only answer all her questions with a smile that automatically appeared every few seconds, but Camelia still Will wait expectantly for such a reply in order to delude herself into telling herself that he is still there and that he can hear what she has to say.
"I miss you so much," she continued.
But what she hasn't said in her heart is the experience of being trapped in Lihen Bookstore due to rain that summer vacation, that is, that time she smelled a sea salt and citrus fragrance perfume on Cedric, and that time She stared at the glass window of the bookstore covered with raindrops and thought about love seriously for the first time.Later, when she was learning to make a love potion, she smelled the smell from Cedric again in her cauldron. In addition, there were freshly baked bread and the night on the astronomy tower in her love potion. wind.
Several years later, she smelled almost all the perfumes in all the perfume shops in Paris, and finally found the scent she smelled on Cedric that year. She sprayed the perfume she bought on the usual blankets and some relatively large Clothes, so that when she is sad or misses him, she can use these things to completely wrap herself in his breath, and morbidly imagine that he is embracing her at this time.
What she didn't say yet was that she remembered the Quidditch match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. Cedric, who was the first to catch the Snitch, won that match, and the whole Hufflepuff house was boiling over. , she wanted to go over to congratulate, but because there were too many people, she was squeezed out at once, and she was pushed by someone again, she staggered, but the ground was so slippery, she fell directly on the ground onto the muddy field, but no one noticed.
The severe pain and the merciless rain on her body were not the reason why Camelia wanted to cry, but she saw it, and Cedric noticed Qiu Zhang who came over almost at the same time, Still, he called him to come to his side on purpose. He seemed to want Qiu to accept everyone's cheers with him, but she could only prostrate in the mud and look up at them. At that time, Camelia thought that Cedric might be Wouldn't notice her at all, her blessing is so inconspicuous, so small that he wouldn't care about it at all, and he wouldn't realize that she was missing, obviously only tens of meters away, but nothing no the same.
It was also raining that day, and when Camelia finally struggled to get up from the mud without anyone's help, she was disappointed to find that Cedric and Qiu had been surrounded by the crowd and left.
The huge stadium was suddenly empty, only Gryffindor team captain Oliver Wood was still kneeling in the rain, looking like he was trying to drown himself in the field he had fought so hard for.
Camelia, who felt sympathetic for a while, limped over and said to Wood, who was kneeling in the rain, as if she said to herself: "Don't give up, there is still a chance."
But she didn't know why she said that at the time, obviously she had resigned to her fate a long time ago, and there would be no chance.
What she regrets the most now is that she didn't tell Cedric that she made a bad fake joke on April Fool's Day. A warm smile, with a gentleness that no one can refuse, but occasionally it is a headache to be stubborn, but he is really a perfect boy.
Camelia remembered that Cedric had commented sourly that there would really be such a good boy in this world?Let her shine, don't be fooled.She looked at him, nodded firmly, and said, of course, what she didn't say at that time was because that boy was you.
But he couldn't know what she hadn't said to him. Now everyone could know, but what he didn't know was that Camelia Shafik loved Cedric Diggory deeply.
Since returning to the wizarding world, every Friday evening, Camelia would choose to go to the Leaky Cauldron to relax, and only at this time of the week would she allow herself a small glass of wine.After the glass of wine was finished, she asked the boss to refill a glass of warm lemonade, which not only relieved the hangover, but also prevented some wizards who tried to strike up a conversation with a glass of wine.
When the cash-strapped bard sees Miss Shafik who loves to listen to stories but is always alone, he will always come to her with his beloved lute, and use the collected stories as usual to communicate with her. Ask for a drink.The down-and-out vagabond does not have the eloquent mouth of a bard, but he can use the most unpretentious words to express all kinds of bitterness that happened to him.Even the young female owner of the bar, who had experienced the great war, could casually tell a lot of the panic and disasters brought by the Dark Lord and his men.
When she got home later, Camelia, who had gained a lot, would record all the stories she heard in the bar, and unknowingly accumulated a large amount of objective material. A stack of parchment records the joys and sorrows of thousands of wizarding families, and together they compose a tragic history of the War of Resistance.
It's hard to say when Camelia got the idea to write a book related to the Hogwarts Battle.Since she had this idea, she has successively visited many wizards who experienced the great war in those years, hoping to hear the most real misfortune that happened to them and around them.During this period, she received help from many people, and also received a lot of rejection.
At first, she just wanted to know what happened in the magical world in England during the years when she was cut off from magic out of curiosity, but the result of consulting the information surprised her, because it has been several years since the great war , but still could not find a complete record of the whole process of Voldemort's comeback and his crushing and brutal rule. If she wanted to understand more details, she could only inquire about it from many sources, collect it everywhere, and inquire about all the details. It is very difficult for those who have experienced the war to piece together a complete story that should have been passed on orally.
What is even more astonishing is that the most detailed records of the war that can be found at hand are actually written by the notorious female reporter Rita Skeeter for their savior Harry Potter. A related biography.
This biography was published without the consent and authorization of Harry Potter himself and his family members. The author Rita Skeeter also suffered a big lawsuit for this, but this does not hinder it. It has been popular and best-selling in the market in recent years.Of course, the book also describes a lot of pretentious and out-of-the-box content, and even deliberately guides readers to agree that if people do not suppress Harry who defeated Voldemort, he is very likely to become the next Dark Lord.
At the same time, during the Great War, almost half of the pure-blood families joined the villain camp that believed that pure-blood was supreme. Although these families suffered heavy losses in this war, they went further and further down the road of decline after the war. But they will not change the ideas they have believed in for many years because of a big war. Even if they are still the loser, some old stubborn people will not admit their defeat until death. The debate did not stop at all because of the end of this tragic and unnecessary war.
There are still a lot of pure-blood young wizards bullying their Muggle classmates in school, calling them insulting names like "mudblood" viciously and meanly, besides It is not uncommon to form gangs to isolate and exclude these classmates who they think are not as noble as they are.
On the surface, it seems that the righteous party won the peace with the final victory, but this peace is only an appearance, not the peace they were looking forward to.Only a few people really realize the tragic reasons for the outbreak of this war, including why Voldemort can quickly gather so many believers to work for him every time he shows up, in fact, it is not at all surrendering to what he has Power, but he promised his believers an ideal world, a world where wizards are supreme and muggles are servants. At the same time, that is also a big lie he told for his absolute absolute domination. The truth is In fact, he never cared whether those pure-blood wizard families could continue to reproduce with pure blood. All he wanted was that the world be ruled by him alone.
Because of this, this war should be fully exposed and displayed to the public, and no detail should be missed, so that more wizards must wake up. If such wrong and extreme ideas are allowed to spread in society, There will definitely be another Voldemort in the future, and he will also incite the people, use extreme ideas to make them work for him, and eventually disturb the world again.
Similarly, those bloody realities should not be buried in the long river of history, and those wizards should not only remember Harry Potter as a savior, because there have been countless unsung heroes for their beliefs and loved ones Sacrificed in the war, and countless innocent wizards were brutally killed in the war, they should all leave their names to warn their descendants.
In the process of interviewing witnesses, Camelia has seen too many tears and heard too many regrettable and choked partings.
When she went to the Weasley Brothers' Joke and Trickster, she met George Weasley who had lost one ear, and was told by him that he lost not only his ear, but also the twin brother who had been with him Fred Weasley, and fond memories of being with his brother, since he lost Fred, his wand never summoned a Patronus, and now his family and friends never Will mistake them both.
If it weren't for the big fight, the trick shop would have more and better ideas, the Weasleys still get a good laugh at the twins' chorus, George's Patronus and Frey The patron saint of virtue ran side by side in the sun.
But the great war destroyed all of this, and Fred's departure took away all the happiness of George.
In addition to George, Camelia also met another member of the Weasley family.
Percy Weasley, who had always been stern and serious since he was a student, cried for his first love regardless of his image that day.That gentle and kind girl with Muggle blood had accompanied him through his entire youth. They had witnessed each other's transition from childishness to maturity, from school uniform to formal attire, and they had promised each other the rest of their lives when they were in love, but in the end because of those The absurd concept, because of Percy's utterly wrong prediction of the situation, now Penelope Clearwater, a lovely girl, has forever become a familiar figure in Percy Weasley's memories, and a part of his hidden treasure. Secrets in the darkest crevices of family album collections.
If there hadn't been this big war, the girl Percy would eventually marry back home might have been Penelope, maybe they would have two naughty and lovely daughters, and they would quarrel over trivial matters, but in the end they would be sitting on On the sofa in the living room, we looked through the photo albums from our student days together, and reconciled while recalling those past events.Maybe they'll talk to their kids about the days they went to school on an anniversary, when they went to school and scouted for empty classrooms without telling everyone else.
But the battle ruthlessly cut all the red threads that bound the couple, and Percy dared not face his years at Hogwarts.
Camelia also interviewed several pure-blood wizards like Aurora Greengrass. Almost all of their families were wizards who still insisted on extreme pure-bloodism after the war.But Aurora was the one who impressed Camilia the most, not only because she requested the interview, but also because when she approached her, her wedding would be a few days away. Following the arrangement of the family to marry a wizard of the same pure blood but she had never met before.
This Miss Greengrass had heard of Camelia's eccentric character as early as when she was studying, but what people didn't expect was that she was not only at school, but also at home and at odds with her family.Her story was about a wizarding friend of Muggle descent, but she sounded more like a deeply in love lover from her tone of voice. At the end of the interview, she said something strange, which made People are confused.She told Camelia that if you want to give a good friend a gift, never ask the animals for advice, listen to them, and weave your hair into a bracelet and give it to the other party, thinking that this will bring good luck to the other party, but in reality It would be misleading to do so.
If there hadn't been this great war, Aurora might have corrected the mistake she refused to reveal to anyone through years of persistence and hard work, and it is said that she might never be forgiven by the world, and she would reconcile with her friends, Maybe this will give her hope in life again.
But this battle made Aurora so obsessed with her friends that she had no expectations for life, and voluntarily became a puppet of her parents, allowing others to control her life.
Whenever she finishes interviewing a person, or hears such a story again, Camelia can't help imagining for them what would happen to those who left without this man-made disaster. Life, what kind of ending, what kind of destination.
In the end, it took nearly a year for Camelia to finish this work with difficulty, which made her physically and mentally exhausted, because she almost finished writing it in tears, and every piece of parchment was wet with her tears However, when she shed tears for what happened to others, she couldn't help but think of Cedric.
Camelia once thought of giving up because the truth was too cruel, but once she realized that she had already been a deserter, she made up her mind that she would not back down this time, it was time to do something, and she knew very well There is not much I can do, but to justify the names of those who left them, maybe this can also make myself feel better about the guilt for not contributing to the war.
This book "The Battle of Hogwarts: The Buried Truth Behind" has aroused great repercussions once it was published, and it is indeed what Camelia originally hoped. This book alerted some people, but it also made many extreme pure The blood critics focused on Camelia, and they criticized her as a pure-blood traitor, saying that she was clearly turning black and white, tarnishing and discrediting pure-blood wizards.
Since the publication of the book, Camelia has received many death threats, and she has been held against her head with a wand many times when she just left the house. For this reason, she can only live in Hogwarts for a long time, with Professor McGonagall like that.The Ministry of Magic has also sent people many times to ask her if she needs to apply for a commissioner to protect her personal safety, but she refused because she felt that it would trouble others, and she felt uncomfortable saying that.She was also attacked by her own students at school, and some parents wrote a letter to the school director requesting that she be removed from all positions.
But all of this is just because she told the truth.
Because during the creative process, Camelia was exposed to too many bloody, dark and negative stories, which made her mentally tortured, and she found that even after such a book was published, she still couldn't deal with it. She was relieved to have escaped the catastrophe by mistake, not to mention that she would never forget Cedric in her heart. She really wanted to do it for him, for those many people who suffered all kinds of misfortunes in the war, and What did their family do.
Finally, in the sleepless rainy nights, Camelia made up her mind to end this obsession, no matter how much it cost.So she began to study the time-space magic circle told by an old wizard she met in the previous interview. She wanted to go to another time and space to change the direction of all the stories she heard, but this time it was not just for her own sake. Selfishly wanting to keep Cedric alive.
It was an almost impossible challenge, and maybe no wizard had ever succeeded, maybe some did, but no one in their original time and space would know about it.Because this formation has only a one-in-ten-million chance of success, and it is extremely complicated to activate, it is the only way. It allows an obsessed wizard to travel to another parallel time and space that is exactly the same as his original time and space. Oneself, to change all the things that have been regretted, so that everything becomes what it should be.
This formation is irreversible, and there is no going back. Once it succeeds, it means that it will never return to the original time and space in another time and space, and it can only travel through consciousness, and it cannot be transferred together with the body, so no matter it succeeds Whether or not, the body of the wizard in the formation will eventually be burned clean by the flames backlashed by the formation and turned into a pile of ashes. If he succeeds, he will transfer his consciousness in this time and space to himself in another time and space. The self that can completely replace that time and space continues to live in another time and space.
The old wizard who told her this method also thought of going to another time and space to stop the accident and save his beloved wife for many years, but when the formation was halfway activated, he had a premonition that the planned failure was only one in ten million. One chance of success, and he only has one chance to try, this deal is not worth it anyway, first of all, he can't guarantee whether he can save his wife if he really successfully travels to the past, and second, he went to that time and space or Died in the formation, what should his family members who stayed here do, so he finally forced to suspend the formation halfway, but even so, he took a great risk, and he almost died because of it, which also made him There were burn marks on his body that would never heal for a lifetime, but this also meant that he had to be trapped in the memory of his dead wife and the inability to change the past for the rest of his life.
After learning the lessons and experience of the old wizard, Camelia thought of the time-space converter. She thought that if she had a premonition that the magic circle was about to fail, that is, at the moment before being swallowed by the backlash flames, flip it down The small hourglass of the time-space converter makes time go back a little bit, so that she will get another chance. After the self who is about to fail in the formation disappears, she who is outside the formation can enter again, and the cycle repeats until she succeeds.
Ever since Camelia had such an idea, she started to get busy.She quickly solved the problem of the time-space converter, because she found a machine left by an unknown ancestor at home, and as long as it was repaired a little, it would be as good as a new one.Then she resigned from her job in spite of everyone's objections, and began a year of preparations to say goodbye to this time and space. She wanted to arrange those things properly without letting her family notice, and she also began to study how to forge A perfect suicide.
On the day when she decided to leave this time and space, Camelia drove the car to the beach alone. She left her shoes and clothes on the edge of the cliff. According to her strict calculation, after jumping from here, her body will definitely be in the sea. In the evening, she was brought to farther and deeper seas by the high tide. In the next few days, she may become food for seabirds and fish schools. When her family finds the suicide note she deliberately left behind , will choose to give up the in-depth investigation because they don’t know where to salvage her bones. In the end, they will take away her clothes and shoes scattered on the cliff and go back to hold her funeral. Everyone will think that she can’t bear the death threats. And the huge public opinion, led to aggravation of depression, and chose to commit suicide by jumping into the sea.
After forging the suicide evidence, Camelia used magic to go to an inaccessible mountain forest in northern Europe alone, and started her time travel.
In countless attempts, after witnessing her disappearing in the flame of death time and time again, and the scars on her body accumulating more and more, the finger cover of turning the hourglass hurt badly, but she gritted her teeth and persisted She tried tirelessly again and again and failed again and again, but she never thought of giving up, she only knew that maybe the next time, or the next time, she would succeed.
Until a certain time, when she was about to turn over the small hourglass again, she felt her consciousness was suddenly pulled away, which made the movements of her hands pause, and just such a pause, the surrounding flames immediately ignited. Enveloping her completely, heart-piercing pain swept through her body in an instant, and she had no choice but to close her eyes resigned to her fate.
When Camelia became conscious again, she first heard a familiar voice coming from far away. She tried to wake herself up as soon as possible, and then she heard it clearly. It was the aging voice of Professor Binns. He was yelling something like "Charcy", maybe that was her, because the ghost professor was too old to remember anyone's name in the class.At this time, he called Camelia by name, because she was sitting upright, but suddenly she fell headlong on the table, making an earth-shattering sound, which not only disturbed the professor who was lecturing on the podium, but also Woke up the sleepy classroom.
After figuring out the situation, Camelia couldn't help but widen her eyes, looking at everything around her with novel eyes, while some of the classmates whose dreams were disturbed by her came to cast disgusted eyes, what they didn't know was that this Everything seemed so exciting in her eyes, and even Marietta's sarcasm sounded so sweet.
After asking her several tricky questions one after another, Professor Binns was willing to let go of the student who disturbed his class, and he continued to tell the story of the elf mutiny in a tone without any ups and downs.After getting permission to sit down, Camelia couldn't wait to unbutton the sleeves. After confirming that everyone had fallen into a coma again, she lifted the sleeves, and saw a lot of burning marks on her arms. Soon those marks became more obvious, and the feeling of pain became clearer.
But she grinned as she touched those horrible scars.
The author has something to say:
This episode should be the last one that involves the plot of the previous life. When I started writing yesterday, I felt very uncomfortable. I cried for a while at the beginning, and also cried in the middle and the end.Regarding this episode, maybe everyone can better understand many of Cammy’s actions in the main text. Her character is destined to not just want to save Seid.
Then I want to say that the plots of the last three chapters of the main text are coherent. Although they seem to be two separate endings, in fact, my idea is that the penultimate chapter and Chapter 3 are all nightmares made by Seid, so the last chapter It was written that he woke up in a nightmare. The ending of the main text is actually based on the last chapter. The reason why I mentioned this suddenly was that I re-read the comments of those two chapters when I revised the article and thought that maybe some readers would think it was two chapters. An independent plot, in fact, my idea is that the plot of the main text is all coherent, but now I still regret that I mentioned the ending to you halfway through the writing.
Looking at the gloomy sky outside the window, Camelia, who was standing on the podium, immediately stopped lecturing, and gracefully waved the magic wand in her hand. At that time, almost everyone present thought that the young professor wanted to teach herself Cast a sound amplification spell, because the class can only continue if it is louder than the sound of the rain outside.
Unexpectedly, a line of clear and eye-catching characters appeared on the blackboard that was originally filled with important Muggle inventions in the 20th century: "Sit still and listen to the rain".
Just when some students were guessing what kind of riddle it was, they saw that their professor had sat down calmly and made a booing gesture to her group of confused students, and then she pointed to the window direction, motioning them to listen carefully.
So the whole class listened to the sound of rain for most of the class with the young professor in a daze. Even when the get out of class was over, the rain outside never stopped.
Some studious students ran to ask after class why they were asked to listen to the rain in class, but Professor Shafik, who is always willing to help students answer difficult questions, said that he asked them to ask their hearts to listen to the rain at that moment. What did you see, what did you think of.
Some students were relieved after learning that it had nothing to do with the exam content, and left contentedly, but some students were dissatisfied with Camelia's seemingly hypocritical attitude, but they dared not complain to their peers until they walked out of the classroom If you think about Professor Shafiq, you are lazy and don't want to go to class. In this case, it is better to let them finish class early.
The rain didn't stop until night. At night, Camelia was so disturbed by the sound of the wind and rain outside that she couldn't fall asleep. Not long after the clock struck midnight, she got up, put on a coat, and went out lightly. After leaving the teachers' dormitory, she knew that at this point in time, the entire castle fell into a deep sleep.With the faint fluorescence from the hair of the wand, she came to the corridor where the portrait of Cedric was hung, stopped to look at him in the portrait, then took a step back, bent down, and slowly moved with her arms around her knees. He sat down leaning against the wall opposite the portrait.
"It's raining outside." She said to Cedric in the portrait, but the portrait that hadn't injected a little soul would only answer all her questions with a smile that automatically appeared every few seconds, but Camelia still Will wait expectantly for such a reply in order to delude herself into telling herself that he is still there and that he can hear what she has to say.
"I miss you so much," she continued.
But what she hasn't said in her heart is the experience of being trapped in Lihen Bookstore due to rain that summer vacation, that is, that time she smelled a sea salt and citrus fragrance perfume on Cedric, and that time She stared at the glass window of the bookstore covered with raindrops and thought about love seriously for the first time.Later, when she was learning to make a love potion, she smelled the smell from Cedric again in her cauldron.

It was also raining that day, and when Camelia finally struggled to get up from the mud without anyone's help, she was disappointed to find that Cedric and Qiu had been surrounded by the crowd and left.

But she didn't know why she said that at the time, obviously she had resigned to her fate a long time ago, and there would be no chance.
What she regrets the most now is that she didn't tell Cedric that she made a bad fake joke on April Fool's Day. A warm smile, with a gentleness that no one can refuse, but occasionally it is a headache to be stubborn, but he is really a perfect boy.

But he couldn't know what she hadn't said to him. Now everyone could know, but what he didn't know was that Camelia Shafik loved Cedric Diggory deeply.
Since returning to the wizarding world, every Friday evening, Camelia would choose to go to the Leaky Cauldron to relax, and only at this time of the week would she allow herself a small glass of wine.After the glass of wine was finished, she asked the boss to refill a glass of warm lemonade, which not only relieved the hangover, but also prevented some wizards who tried to strike up a conversation with a glass of wine.

There are still a lot of pure-blood young wizards bullying their Muggle classmates in school, calling them insulting names like "mudblood" viciously and meanly, besides It is not uncommon to form gangs to isolate and exclude these classmates who they think are not as noble as they are.
On the surface, it seems that the righteous party won the peace with the final victory, but this peace is only an appearance, not the peace they were looking forward to.Only a few people really realize the tragic reasons for the outbreak of this war, including why Voldemort can quickly gather so many believers to work for him every time he shows up, in fact, it is not at all surrendering to what he has Power, but he promised his believers an ideal world, a world where wizards are supreme and muggles are servants. At the same time, that is also a big lie he told for his absolute absolute domination. The truth is In fact, he never cared whether those pure-blood wizard families could continue to reproduce with pure blood. All he wanted was that the world be ruled by him alone.
Because of this, this war should be fully exposed and displayed to the public, and no detail should be missed, so that more wizards must wake up. If such wrong and extreme ideas are allowed to spread in society, There will definitely be another Voldemort in the future, and he will also incite the people, use extreme ideas to make them work for him, and eventually disturb the world again.
Similarly, those bloody realities should not be buried in the long river of history, and those wizards should not only remember Harry Potter as a savior, because there have been countless unsung heroes for their beliefs and loved ones Sacrificed in the war, and countless innocent wizards were brutally killed in the war, they should all leave their names to warn their descendants.
In the process of interviewing witnesses, Camelia has seen too many tears and heard too many regrettable and choked partings.
When she went to the Weasley Brothers' Joke and Trickster, she met George Weasley who had lost one ear, and was told by him that he lost not only his ear, but also the twin brother who had been with him Fred Weasley, and fond memories of being with his brother, since he lost Fred, his wand never summoned a Patronus, and now his family and friends never Will mistake them both.
If it weren't for the big fight, the trick shop would have more and better ideas, the Weasleys still get a good laugh at the twins' chorus, George's Patronus and Frey The patron saint of virtue ran side by side in the sun.
But the great war destroyed all of this, and Fred's departure took away all the happiness of George.
In addition to George, Camelia also met another member of the Weasley family.
Percy Weasley, who had always been stern and serious since he was a student, cried for his first love regardless of his image that day.That gentle and kind girl with Muggle blood had accompanied him through his entire youth. They had witnessed each other's transition from childishness to maturity, from school uniform to formal attire, and they had promised each other the rest of their lives when they were in love, but in the end because of those The absurd concept, because of Percy's utterly wrong prediction of the situation, now Penelope Clearwater, a lovely girl, has forever become a familiar figure in Percy Weasley's memories, and a part of his hidden treasure. Secrets in the darkest crevices of family album collections.
If there hadn't been this big war, the girl Percy would eventually marry back home might have been Penelope, maybe they would have two naughty and lovely daughters, and they would quarrel over trivial matters, but in the end they would be sitting on On the sofa in the living room, we looked through the photo albums from our student days together, and reconciled while recalling those past events.Maybe they'll talk to their kids about the days they went to school on an anniversary, when they went to school and scouted for empty classrooms without telling everyone else.
But the battle ruthlessly cut all the red threads that bound the couple, and Percy dared not face his years at Hogwarts.
Camelia also interviewed several pure-blood wizards like Aurora Greengrass. Almost all of their families were wizards who still insisted on extreme pure-bloodism after the war.But Aurora was the one who impressed Camilia the most, not only because she requested the interview, but also because when she approached her, her wedding would be a few days away. Following the arrangement of the family to marry a wizard of the same pure blood but she had never met before.
This Miss Greengrass had heard of Camelia's eccentric character as early as when she was studying, but what people didn't expect was that she was not only at school, but also at home and at odds with her family.Her story was about a wizarding friend of Muggle descent, but she sounded more like a deeply in love lover from her tone of voice. At the end of the interview, she said something strange, which made People are confused.She told Camelia that if you want to give a good friend a gift, never ask the animals for advice, listen to them, and weave your hair into a bracelet and give it to the other party, thinking that this will bring good luck to the other party, but in reality It would be misleading to do so.
If there hadn't been this great war, Aurora might have corrected the mistake she refused to reveal to anyone through years of persistence and hard work, and it is said that she might never be forgiven by the world, and she would reconcile with her friends, Maybe this will give her hope in life again.
But this battle made Aurora so obsessed with her friends that she had no expectations for life, and voluntarily became a puppet of her parents, allowing others to control her life.
Whenever she finishes interviewing a person, or hears such a story again, Camelia can't help imagining for them what would happen to those who left without this man-made disaster. Life, what kind of ending, what kind of destination.
In the end, it took nearly a year for Camelia to finish this work with difficulty, which made her physically and mentally exhausted, because she almost finished writing it in tears, and every piece of parchment was wet with her tears However, when she shed tears for what happened to others, she couldn't help but think of Cedric.
Camelia once thought of giving up because the truth was too cruel, but once she realized that she had already been a deserter, she made up her mind that she would not back down this time, it was time to do something, and she knew very well There is not much I can do, but to justify the names of those who left them, maybe this can also make myself feel better about the guilt for not contributing to the war.
This book "The Battle of Hogwarts: The Buried Truth Behind" has aroused great repercussions once it was published, and it is indeed what Camelia originally hoped. This book alerted some people, but it also made many extreme pure The blood critics focused on Camelia, and they criticized her as a pure-blood traitor, saying that she was clearly turning black and white, tarnishing and discrediting pure-blood wizards.
Since the publication of the book, Camelia has received many death threats, and she has been held against her head with a wand many times when she just left the house. For this reason, she can only live in Hogwarts for a long time, with Professor McGonagall like that.The Ministry of Magic has also sent people many times to ask her if she needs to apply for a commissioner to protect her personal safety, but she refused because she felt that it would trouble others, and she felt uncomfortable saying that.She was also attacked by her own students at school, and some parents wrote a letter to the school director requesting that she be removed from all positions.
But all of this is just because she told the truth.
Because during the creative process, Camelia was exposed to too many bloody, dark and negative stories, which made her mentally tortured, and she found that even after such a book was published, she still couldn't deal with it. She was relieved to have escaped the catastrophe by mistake, not to mention that she would never forget Cedric in her heart. She really wanted to do it for him, for those many people who suffered all kinds of misfortunes in the war, and What did their family do.
Finally, in the sleepless rainy nights, Camelia made up her mind to end this obsession, no matter how much it cost.So she began to study the time-space magic circle told by an old wizard she met in the previous interview. She wanted to go to another time and space to change the direction of all the stories she heard, but this time it was not just for her own sake. Selfishly wanting to keep Cedric alive.
It was an almost impossible challenge, and maybe no wizard had ever succeeded, maybe some did, but no one in their original time and space would know about it.Because this formation has only a one-in-ten-million chance of success, and it is extremely complicated to activate, it is the only way. It allows an obsessed wizard to travel to another parallel time and space that is exactly the same as his original time and space. Oneself, to change all the things that have been regretted, so that everything becomes what it should be.
This formation is irreversible, and there is no going back. Once it succeeds, it means that it will never return to the original time and space in another time and space, and it can only travel through consciousness, and it cannot be transferred together with the body, so no matter it succeeds Whether or not, the body of the wizard in the formation will eventually be burned clean by the flames backlashed by the formation and turned into a pile of ashes. If he succeeds, he will transfer his consciousness in this time and space to himself in another time and space. The self that can completely replace that time and space continues to live in another time and space.
The old wizard who told her this method also thought of going to another time and space to stop the accident and save his beloved wife for many years, but when the formation was halfway activated, he had a premonition that the planned failure was only one in ten million. One chance of success, and he only has one chance to try, this deal is not worth it anyway, first of all, he can't guarantee whether he can save his wife if he really successfully travels to the past, and second, he went to that time and space or Died in the formation, what should his family members who stayed here do, so he finally forced to suspend the formation halfway, but even so, he took a great risk, and he almost died because of it, which also made him There were burn marks on his body that would never heal for a lifetime, but this also meant that he had to be trapped in the memory of his dead wife and the inability to change the past for the rest of his life.
After learning the lessons and experience of the old wizard, Camelia thought of the time-space converter. She thought that if she had a premonition that the magic circle was about to fail, that is, at the moment before being swallowed by the backlash flames, flip it down The small hourglass of the time-space converter makes time go back a little bit, so that she will get another chance. After the self who is about to fail in the formation disappears, she who is outside the formation can enter again, and the cycle repeats until she succeeds.
Ever since Camelia had such an idea, she started to get busy.She quickly solved the problem of the time-space converter, because she found a machine left by an unknown ancestor at home, and as long as it was repaired a little, it would be as good as a new one.Then she resigned from her job in spite of everyone's objections, and began a year of preparations to say goodbye to this time and space. She wanted to arrange those things properly without letting her family notice, and she also began to study how to forge A perfect suicide.
On the day when she decided to leave this time and space, Camelia drove the car to the beach alone. She left her shoes and clothes on the edge of the cliff. According to her strict calculation, after jumping from here, her body will definitely be in the sea. In the evening, she was brought to farther and deeper seas by the high tide. In the next few days, she may become food for seabirds and fish schools. When her family finds the suicide note she deliberately left behind , will choose to give up the in-depth investigation because they don’t know where to salvage her bones. In the end, they will take away her clothes and shoes scattered on the cliff and go back to hold her funeral. Everyone will think that she can’t bear the death threats. And the huge public opinion, led to aggravation of depression, and chose to commit suicide by jumping into the sea.
After forging the suicide evidence, Camelia used magic to go to an inaccessible mountain forest in northern Europe alone, and started her time travel.
In countless attempts, after witnessing her disappearing in the flame of death time and time again, and the scars on her body accumulating more and more, the finger cover of turning the hourglass hurt badly, but she gritted her teeth and persisted She tried tirelessly again and again and failed again and again, but she never thought of giving up, she only knew that maybe the next time, or the next time, she would succeed.
Until a certain time, when she was about to turn over the small hourglass again, she felt her consciousness was suddenly pulled away, which made the movements of her hands pause, and just such a pause, the surrounding flames immediately ignited. Enveloping her completely, heart-piercing pain swept through her body in an instant, and she had no choice but to close her eyes resigned to her fate.
When Camelia became conscious again, she first heard a familiar voice coming from far away. She tried to wake herself up as soon as possible, and then she heard it clearly. It was the aging voice of Professor Binns. He was yelling something like "Charcy", maybe that was her, because the ghost professor was too old to remember anyone's name in the class.At this time, he called Camelia by name, because she was sitting upright, but suddenly she fell headlong on the table, making an earth-shattering sound, which not only disturbed the professor who was lecturing on the podium, but also Woke up the sleepy classroom.
After figuring out the situation, Camelia couldn't help but widen her eyes, looking at everything around her with novel eyes, while some of the classmates whose dreams were disturbed by her came to cast disgusted eyes, what they didn't know was that this Everything seemed so exciting in her eyes, and even Marietta's sarcasm sounded so sweet.
After asking her several tricky questions one after another, Professor Binns was willing to let go of the student who disturbed his class, and he continued to tell the story of the elf mutiny in a tone without any ups and downs.After getting permission to sit down, Camelia couldn't wait to unbutton the sleeves. After confirming that everyone had fallen into a coma again, she lifted the sleeves, and saw a lot of burning marks on her arms. Soon those marks became more obvious, and the feeling of pain became clearer.
But she grinned as she touched those horrible scars.
The author has something to say:
This episode should be the last one that involves the plot of the previous life. When I started writing yesterday, I felt very uncomfortable. I cried for a while at the beginning, and also cried in the middle and the end.Regarding this episode, maybe everyone can better understand many of Cammy’s actions in the main text. Her character is destined to not just want to save Seid.
Then I want to say that the plots of the last three chapters of the main text are coherent. Although they seem to be two separate endings, in fact, my idea is that the penultimate chapter and Chapter 3 are all nightmares made by Seid, so the last chapter It was written that he woke up in a nightmare. The ending of the main text is actually based on the last chapter. The reason why I mentioned this suddenly was that I re-read the comments of those two chapters when I revised the article and thought that maybe some readers would think it was two chapters. An independent plot, in fact, my idea is that the plot of the main text is all coherent, but now I still regret that I mentioned the ending to you halfway through the writing.
