Aurora sat on the sofa facing the fireplace in the living room, staring blankly at the fireplace where Aubrey might suddenly appear at any moment, waiting for him to finish his day's work and return from the Ministry of Magic.

The thought that she had experienced everything in the nightmare only flashed in her mind for a moment, but the doubts in Aurora's heart gradually magnified as time went by.Originally, that scene would only bring her a feeling of personal experience and deja vu, but now she has begun to think about when she experienced all this and whether she lost a memory.

She wanted to confirm to Aubrey herself that Owen Hopps must have told him all about her life before he died.

Aurora said before that she didn't care about the grievances of the previous generation, or even why the Hopes and his wife treated her like this, but when she thought of the nightmare that had plagued her since she was a child, she was still a little curious, a little bit panic.

While she was still lost in her own thoughts, Aubrey appeared in the living room fireplace.He saw Aurora sitting on the sofa waiting for him, and he didn't notice her strangeness. After all, this week, she always pinched Aubrey's time to get off work, and stayed in the living room waiting for him to come back. Can't wait to start another round of teaching about wandless magic.

"Excuse me, my diligent and studious lady, what kind of progress have you made today?" Aubrey couldn't help feeling a little funny when he saw his sister's dumbfounded look, and walked slowly in front of Aurora, pinching her face , "Miss Hopps, studious" who was about to blurt out because of habit, rolled around in his mouth, but swallowed it back.

"Aubrey, do you still remember the nightmare I described to you?" Aurora, who had been staring at the direction of the fireplace, realized that he had come to the place when she heard Aubrey's question. In front of him, subconsciously raised his head to look at him, did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

Hearing Aurora's question, Aubrey looked at her unfocused eyes, immediately retracted the slightly raised arc of the corner of her mouth, frowned, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong? You Are you having that dream again?"

"No." When Aurora thought of the nightmare that haunted her body like a curse, she suddenly felt a little headache. She raised her hands and rubbed her temples on both sides. She shook her head and said helplessly. The tone explained, "I only had that nightmare every day when I was a child, and I never had it when I grew up. There were only a few times when you were by my side."

"Your tone seems to be blaming me." Aubrey probably sensed Aurora's tense nerves, and thought it was necessary to let her relax a little bit, so he, who never smiled very much and had no sense of humor, rarely opened his mouth. He made a joke, but the tone of his speech sounded very serious, and he couldn't tell that he was joking.

"It's so cold, but since it's rare for you to be able to tell jokes, I'll give you a cooperating smile." Although Aurora could hear that her brother was teasing, she still didn't receive the joke, and hit her out of nowhere She shivered, pretending to be cold by Aubrey's joke, and finally smiled cooperatively.

Aubrey took off his wizard's robe embroidered with dark red patterns, ordered the house elves to wash it, and routinely asked them not to appear nearby to disturb or even eavesdrop when he was talking with Aurora.

The unknown house-elf obediently responded, took Aubrey's wizard robe respectfully, and disappeared where it was standing in an instant.

Aurora noticed that since the last incident, Aubrey didn't reuse Xianchen much.On the one hand, it was probably because she didn't know how to respect herself, and there was another reason she didn't know, that is, Xianchen had stayed in the Hopes family for too long and knew too many things.Although house-elves generally would not betray their masters, Aubrey always had to be on guard.

"Since I seldom have that nightmare, why did it suddenly come up again today?" In order to ensure that no third party could hear their conversation, Aubrey cautiously used a spell of "close your ears and listen", and then Slightly tilted his body, sat next to Aurora, and leaned the family cane against the armrest of the sofa as he spoke.

Aurora pondered for a moment, and finally sighed deeply. She sat on the sofa with her arms around her knees, resting her head on her knees, facing Aubrey's direction, and said softly: "What happened recently? Something reminds me of that nightmare."

Based on the tone of his sister's speech, Aubrey probably could have judged the seriousness of the matter she said. He didn't immediately ask Aurora what was the matter, but kept silent, didn't say a word, and waited Aurora spoke for herself.Since she had waited so long in the living room for him to come home because of this incident, even if she didn't ask, Aurora would explain the ins and outs of this incident in detail, so there was no need to ask more.

Although Aubrey and Aurora are not biological siblings, over the years, the relationship between the two has become closer than that of biological siblings, and their affection is not comparable to that of biological siblings who seem to be at odds with each other.The way they get along couldn't be simpler. If something happens, even if he doesn't ask, she will say it, and vice versa.

Sure enough, as Aubrey expected, in a somewhat oppressive silence, Aurora thought about her words, and finally spoke, but she didn't directly explain the reason for this matter, but He asked in a calm-sounding tone: "Aubrey, have you... ever killed someone?"

Even though Aubrey has always claimed to be the person who knows his sister best, before Aurora asked this question, he never thought that what she said would be this. He heard her meaning almost immediately .Since Aurora asked if she had ever killed anyone, then that was probably what she was talking about.

After coming to such a conclusion, Aubrey couldn't help being stunned for a few seconds, pursed his lips, and replied: "I witnessed the death of criminals in Azkaban, but I didn't do it myself."

According to the information he obtained from Li Chengzhi and the information he personally heard in the Muggle world, although Aurora was picked by Mycroft a long time ago, she entered MI[-] and became the most popular Word of mouth is passed down, and there are special agents in ordinary novels who can kill without blinking an eye, but Aubrey knows that she has always conscientiously carried out the orders and instructions she received, and completed her tasks in an orderly manner.

She has hurt people, and she has seen others die in front of her, but she has never killed anyone herself, even just one.

Aubrey had guessed what kind of nightmare Aurora had mentioned a long time ago, as early as when Owen Hopps died, and even guessed why she would do such a thing. nightmare.When he thought of this, he unconsciously combined the two things together, and couldn't help being startled, as if he was worried about something.

What is he worried about?

She was worried that Aurora, who had always been regarded as her own sister, would become cold-blooded and cruel because of such an opportunity, and follow the old path of her biological parents.

Thinking of this, Aubrey took out a dark red handkerchief with a faint fragrance from somewhere, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, forced himself to put aside the thought just now, took a deep breath and calmed down. Holding his mind, he still put on that calm look in front of Aurora, so as not to let her notice his strangeness.

"Although I don't know the specific situation at that time, I believe that the person or people you eliminated must not be a righteous and righteous person." Aubrey cleared his throat , calmly buried all the worries and suspicions deep in his heart, still with that expression that Aurora couldn't see through, and continued, "In short, they are the so-called 'bad guys'."

"Bad guy?" Aurora has always regarded Aubrey as her closest relative, and she can't help but relax every time she talks to him or mentions him. She was still worried when she heard her brother say this word , laughed inappropriately, and couldn't help but want to complain, "This word has always given me the impression that it seems that children under the age of three like to use it."

"You are not much better." Aubrey pinched his Jingming acupoint, and the thought that he was worried that Aurora would go astray a second ago was completely dispelled in this instant. Said, how could the little sister who likes to be venomous from time to time go on such a path, he was ridiculed as a three-year-old child, he retorted, "If I am only three years old, then as my sister, you will only be more serious. Small."

Aurora has always had the ability to be serious in a second and indecent in a second. At this time, after she joked, she suddenly sullen her face, her eyelashes flickering up and down, staring at Aubrey beside her, He asked in a very low voice: "In your opinion, if you killed the so-called 'bad guy' as a last resort, then you don't need to bear the accompanying guilt at all?"

"Guilt is unavoidable, but you must always be sure that what you are doing is right." Aubrey suddenly felt that the scene where Aurora was so entangled because of this was not the same as the parents he imagined many years ago. The scene of adopting Aurora was very similar, even to the point of almost the same, and he couldn't help but start to worry again.

"Is this really the right thing to do?" Aurora stared straight ahead in a daze, her voice was as thin as a gnat, as if she was not asking Aubrey beside her, but herself.

The author has something to say:

Why didn't anyone comment on the plot of life experience? Is it because everyone doesn't like brother?

After I go back, I will probably meet Queen Irene, I am a little excited~~
