HP Midnight Light

In fact, Hyacinth didn't know much about the Muggle world.she thought in despair.She basically built up her understanding of the Muggle world gradually by wandering around the streets.Therefore, she decided to talk about the orphanage first: "... Anyway, that's about it. A healthy, older person like me is usually responsible for doing errands outside. Oh, by the way, I still have a problem. Melon friend, she's my roommate. She asked me before I came here if she could write me—"

"The post office in Hogsmeade can send Muggle letters," Sirius told her, "but that orphanage doesn't sound very good..."

"It's actually not that bad, it's just that the atmosphere is very depressing." Hyacinth decided to say something interesting, "Last summer vacation, I found a group of punks, they always like to blackmail those little boys who go to noble schools. Then Use that money to buy beer, weed, go to the red-light district—" She shuts up awkwardly, but it's too late.

"You know so much." Sirius gave her a look of compassion. "I should suggest that Dumbledore write a letter to the orphanage to complain, so that you will never have the chance to go out again."

"Let's talk about your group of friends," Hyacinth waved her hand, "I told you that I only understand the vulgar side of the Muggle world."

Hearing her words, a smile flashed across Sirius's face: "The first person I met was James, this guy hit me right off the first sight. Remus's words are much quieter, but occasionally he is very funny. Mischievous spirit, Dumbledore probably chose him as the prefect to let him restrain us, but unfortunately it didn't work at all... Peter always followed us, he admired James the most, but he had the best relationship with Remus, Because he often helps him make up lessons."

"What's the deal with your nicknames?" Hyacinth asked, "Padfoot, Wormtail, Moonface, Prongs..."

"Ah—it's just a code name." Sirius said solemnly, "People can't just call their real names directly when they are playing pranks or violating school rules. It's too imposing."

"Did you meet James when we were in the sorting house?"

"No, on the train. He approached me and told me he wanted to go to Gryffindor because 'there's a lot of bravery in there'. Then I told him my whole family was Slytherin, James. I was taken aback." Sirius smiled nostalgicly, "During the sorting, he told me that if I entered Slytherin, he would be the first to rush up and cast a curse on me—"

"And you ended up in Gryffindor."

Sirius showed off naively: "I tried the Leg-locking Curse on him that night. Yes. At that time, Andromeda and Narcissa were still in school. They were terrified, and the entire auditorium was silent. Only James Jim was the first to applaud me. The next day I got a Howler letter - who knows who it was from, I guess it was Bella - and James snatched it and pressed it straight into the water glass. Then We became good friends."

Hyacinth couldn't help but think of the scene when she was sorted. When the Sorting Hat shouted "Slytherin", she almost slipped off the high stool, and didn't even notice the wonderful expressions of everyone in the audience.As she approached the Slytherin table, there was a buzzing murmur in the Great Hall, and Professor McGonagall had to shout out for silence, and as for her classmates...nobody wanted to show her a welcome at that time.

"Did anyone reject you when you first arrived in Gryffindor?" Hyacinth asked cautiously.

"There were a few at first, but soon they had nothing to say." Sirius said lightly, "James told everyone that I killed a dragon before I came to Hogwarts...just kidding, and then I got familiar with it." It will be fine after that.”

"James is such a good man, it must feel good to have such a friend." Hyacinth said enviously.It took her a long time to get to know Cornelia and Olivia, and the days before that had been a disaster for her.

"Yes. But—"

Sirius' words were interrupted by a knock on the door, and Hyacinth shuddered. After meeting Bella, she had lost interest in the rest of the Black family.

"Don't worry," Sirius said quickly to her, raising his voice to the person outside the door, "Come in."

"Hyatings." The person who came was Regulus, and he apologized to Hyacinth guiltily as soon as he entered the door, "I'm really sorry, I asked you to—"

"It's okay, Regu. It's not your fault." Hyacinth comforted.Sirius closed the door behind Regulus:

"What are you doing here?"

"Ollie has already left. She said she was waiting for you by the fireplace." Regulus said to Hyacinth. No one will see you."

Sirius sat down casually on the chair, crossing his arms behind his head.

"Sirius," Regulus turned his head to look at his brother, "it will be lunch in half an hour, you—"

"I'd love to enjoy some alone time." Sirius leaned back, tilted his chair up, and cut off Regu's words lazily facing the ceiling.Regulus choked, he frowned and tried to convince his brother:

"Today there is a dish you like to eat, and it's rare that everyone is-"

Hyacins playfully pretended to be studying the pictures on the wall.

"So it's better for me, a 'bastard', not to disturb your interest." When facing Regulus, Sirius' attitude was much sharper, and he imitated Bella's voice and tone perfectly, "I miss Mom I still prefer to only see you." He laughed self-deprecatingly, and some blood faded from Lei Gu's face:

"Sirius, I—" he almost begged Sirius, "then you will definitely come on Christmas Eve, right?"

Sirius forced a snort in reply.

"But you have to eat something." Regulus asked cautiously. "Maybe I can find an excuse not to attend dinner and have Kreacher bring some up so we can eat together?"

"I'm not going to starve to death. If I can't, I can still chew on the table legs." Sirius laughed, "It's up to you, you really don't mind trouble, Regu."

"Then tomorrow—"

"Stop trying to persuade me." Sirius dropped the chair legs back to the ground heavily, as if suppressing his anger, "It's better for you to act quickly, it will be hard to say if she meets Bella again." .”

Bellatrix's name successfully diverted Regulus' attention, and he seemed a little nervous: "I'll take you down—what are you looking at?" His voice suddenly became weird, "Sirius , why do you..."

Hyacinth was desperate to find that she had been staring at the Muggle girl's bikini babysitter.

"Trust me..." Hyacinth lamented, while Sirius laughed silently.

"Where did you find these things?" Regulus muttered, as if dissatisfied with his brother's taste, "Let's go, Hyacinth."

"Close the door for me, thank you." When Regu turned the doorknob, Sirius reminded him coldly behind him.Regulus froze.

Hyacinth turned her head: "See you at school!"

Sirius nodded with a faint smile.

"Let's go." Regulus urged.

As Lei Gu said, they met no one else along the way.Even so, Hyacinth finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Olivia waiting by the fireplace.

Olivia looked equally nervous, and when she saw Hyacinth, she ran across the room: "Are you okay?"

Her strength was too great, almost all the air in Hyacinth's chest was squeezed out, she struggled desperately: "Ollie!" Olivia quickly let go of her. "I'm fine." Hyacinth comforted, "It's you, she didn't make things difficult for you, did she?"

"No," Olivia shook her head, "Narcisa—"

"Kreacher!" Regulus said suddenly, Olivia was startled, and Hyacinth realized that the house elf had been in the kitchen all along, and it seemed to be preparing lunch.

"Honorable Master Regulus!" As soon as it saw Regulus, it immediately bowed greatly, and put its ears to the ground.As Sirius said, it has a completely different attitude towards Regulus.

"Kreacher, you can't tell anyone that this lady has appeared here before." Regulus pointed at Hyacinth and said, "If anyone asks you, no matter who it is, tell him you didn't see anything I realized, even from Narcissa and Bella."

"Yes, respected young master!" Kreacher bowed deeply, his big pig-like nose pressed against the ground tightly.

"Continue to prepare lunch." Regulus ordered, he looked towards the stairwell, a little nervous, "it's not safe to talk here, someone will come down at any time."

"Let's go now." Hyacinth said hastily.

At this time, the sound of conversation suddenly sounded from far to near, and accompanied by the sound of footsteps, it seemed that someone was walking towards the kitchen.Regulus, Olivia, and Hyacinth were stunned at the same time.

A high-pitched female voice came: "—I say, you shouldn't have allowed him to come back!"

"Bella!" Regulus called in a low voice.Olivia's face turned pale immediately, and Hyacinth quickly took down the jar containing the Floo powder, grabbing a handful herself first.Lei Gu took the jar and urged anxiously, "Hiesings, you go first, hurry up!"

Hyacinth stepped into the fireplace, Bella's voice was getting closer, wondering who else was with her.Regu turned his body sideways to cover, Olivia mouthed her to go quickly, Hyacinth let go, and the green flames engulfed her.

"Burstrode's," she said clearly.

Before Bellatrix's figure appeared at the bottom of the stairs, Hyacinth stepped across the green flames.

Hyacinth looked out the window.

"Christmas is over," Olivia complained, waving to her parents.The steam blown away by the wind blurred their vision for a moment, and when the vision became clear again, Hyacinth saw Sirius and Regulus.

They had just entered through the wall one after the other. Mrs. Black and another strange middle-aged man followed Regulus from left to right. Mrs. Black was talking to Regulus, and Regulus nodded from time to time.And Sirius had already quickened his pace to distance himself from his family, neither mother nor son noticed his leaving quietly, only Mr. Black watched the eldest son's back silently.

Hyacinth saw that many girls around were secretly looking at Sirius. They gathered together from time to time and said something, and then looked at him expectantly.But Sirius just strode forward, with a cool impatient look on his face, as if those fiery stares didn't bother him at all.

"He's charming, isn't he?" The Bulstrodes had already left, Olivia followed Hyacinth's gaze and saw Sirius, she smiled lightly, "No matter how prejudiced you are, no one It can be denied that he looks good."

"Ah? What? Yeah." Hyacinth pretended that she wasn't looking at Sirius just now. She saw James jump off the train and give Sirius a warm hug, and then they started to carry luggage to the car together. .

Olivia quietly watched the three members of the Blake family in the other direction, not knowing what to think of, Olivia's eyes flickered.

At this moment, James stopped suddenly and said something to Sirius.Then they all turned around and a red-haired girl was joking with her friends.Hyacins recognized Lily Evans.James grinned foolishly, and Sirius grinned and gave him a thumbs up—what did that mean?Hyacinth thought subconsciously, James had obviously done nothing.

"The Black family is really complicated."

"What?" Hyacinth thought she had misheard.

Olivia repeated: "The Black family is complicated."

"What's wrong?" Hyacinth asked in surprise.

"I play well with Leigu. But I found that I can't get along with Narcissa or Bella..." Olivia showed a very tired expression, "For example, Narcissa, I feel that she can see through my heart at a glance, but But I couldn't guess what she was thinking at all. And Bellatrix, alas, she looked at me as if she was looking at a prey!" Olivia said a little excitedly.

There was no sign of Regulus outside the window.

"Don't think too much, they just have such personality." Hyacinth comforted.She thought of Bella and Narcissa, sisters, how similar and how different.They have common Blake's characteristics, but have completely different characteristics.And Andromeda, who was expelled, also grew up there and graduated from Slytherin, but she ran counter to the family's philosophy.Black made them and Black broke them.

Olivia closed her eyes and didn't answer.

"Ollie—" Regulus' words stopped abruptly when he saw that Olivia seemed to be asleep.Hyacinth knew she was faking sleep, so she raised a finger to signal Regulus to silence.

"It's okay, I'll come find her later." Regulus waved his hand and went to find his friends.

"Stop pretending." Hyacinth reached out and pinched Olivia's face, and the latter blinked:

"I just feel a little tired." She pointed to her heart, "I can't imagine how Lei Gu grew up in such a complicated environment."

Hyacinth suddenly felt sorry for Olivia, she turned her head and looked out the window, James and Sirius had disappeared.

Unlike them all, Cornelia looked extraordinarily radiant.

"Bella gave me a lot of advice, and her husband is also a nice person. I think they are a match made in heaven." Cornelia stayed at Blake's house for a few days, and her admiration for Bella simply increased To a new level, of course, she did not forget to praise Narcissa's upcoming wedding and her fiancé, "I met Lucius on Christmas day, my God, you don't know how well he and Sissy match."

Cornelia seemed to have a lot to share with them, and she kept emphasizing how personable and dignified Lucius was. Bellatrix was very pleased with this sister-in-law, as were the two Black sons-in-law. We had a great time.In addition to Malfoy's surname, Lucius was also a capable Death Eater, and this special status added a lot of points to him.

"Aunt Walburga showed me the family tree of Black. I have to say that the Black family has a long history and can almost be regarded as the originator of wizards." Cornelia chattered about the various things of the Black family, "I also found that they have married almost every pure-blood family..."

Cornelia, who was talking vigorously, didn't notice the distraction of Hyacinth and Olivia.

"Sissy and Bella discussed the guest list for the wedding together. I took a look, and it was full of famous people. Another bridesmaid of Cissy was Antares Sylwyn. Her brother and Bella Her husband is very familiar." Cornelia spoke tirelessly, but Hyacinth was uncomfortably aware that the bridesmaid's brother seemed to have appeared in the papers and was undoubtedly a Death Eater.

Olivia's smile was almost broken, and Hyacinth knew she didn't want to hear this now.So she tried to change the topic: "I don't know if the OWLs exam this year will be too difficult, but next year it will be us."

"I hope not. Lucius told me that the examiners are generally fixed every year, so..."

The topic immediately turned to the exam, and Hyacinth breathed a sigh of relief, recalling what Cornelia had just said.Since she admired the Death Eaters so much, could it be... She forced herself to stop the thought.

The author has something to say:

Note:

1. Antares Selwin: This person is fictional, but her brother appeared several times in the original book, and was with Travers.

2. The difference between Cornelia and Olivia: Cornelia's father is Evan Rozier - a Death Eater; there is no evidence that the Burst family ever followed the Dark Lord.

3. The heroine's Squib mother: I don't think Squibs are hereditary.But from the original book, we can find that the magical talents of wizard children are different.I assume that the heroine is not a talented student in magic.
