"It's just monitoring, and I'll take care of you by the way." Tired, Aubrey supported his cane, rubbed his forehead, and resolutely denied Aurora's idea of ​​"helping to speak well".

Aurora pursed her lips, then thought of Mycroft, and couldn't help laughing: "Your behavior reminds me of our big boss, who often sends many people to monitor his younger brother."

It seems that Mycroft and Aubrey are not only very similar in terms of their personality and tone as politicians, but also like to send people to spy on their younger brothers or sisters.Aurora believes that if the two of them meet one day, there will be something in common.

"Don't compare me with him." Aubrey didn't seem to have a good impression of Mycroft. He probably thought that he not only snatched his sister away, but also arranged high-risk work tasks for her. His expression was a little bit unpleasant.

When Aurora heard this, she shrugged helplessly, as if she didn't listen.

Aubrey walked into the spacious living room without haste while supporting his cane, stood in front of Aurora, glanced at her attire, and locked his eyes on the little red in the pure black.

He had put it on Aurora himself the last time she came home from her father's death.Carved in the shape of a heart, crimson gemstones hang from thin gold chains adorning her fair neck and complementing her delicate collarbone.

The combination of red and gold is the usual color scheme of Gryffindor, and it is also the decoration style of Hopes Manor.This necklace was obtained from the goblin by the ancestors of the Hopps family. It was enchanted by the goblin who was always good at making gold, silver and gemstone jewelry. Naturally, it couldn't be as simple as an ordinary necklace.As long as Aurora is in danger at work and the ruby ​​pendant is stained with blood, the necklace will immediately become a portkey, instantly transporting her to Hopes Manor and his side. For Aurora, The safest place.

Aubrey didn't want his sister to work under Mycroft a long time ago, because he knew that that person, like him, would do anything for the ultimate benefit, let alone care about the names of his agents. Maybe Aurora would one day Will become a victim of his game.Even if she didn't, as an MI[-] agent, she would always receive some dangerous missions on weekdays, and she might die in the missions.

Ornaments handed down by the Hopps family are not allowed to be given to members outside the family, such as Aurora Hopps whose name does not appear on the genealogy.

But Aubrey, who learned the truth from his father, couldn't possibly add Aurora's name to the genealogy, making her an upright young lady of the Hopps family, and he had no position to let her leave the Muggle world where she had lived for many years. Come back here and stay.Aubrey had mentioned it to Aurora just now, and she hadn't even considered doing it.

Then, he can only protect her in this way.

No matter how hurt she was outside, this ruby ​​necklace would bring her back to his safe home and his side immediately.

Aubrey held up the crimson heart-shaped pendant, and repeated what he said just now with a blank face, saying, "Don't compare me with him."

Even if Aurora was the most powerful subordinate of Mycroft Holmes, he would not care about her safety.

But he will.

Aurora, who had no idea of ​​Aubrey's inner drama at the moment, couldn't help but startled when she saw her serious expression, then smiled and raised her hand, brushing away Aubrey's hand holding the pendant, jokingly Said: "What, Aubrey? I regret giving this necklace to me. Do you want to take it back?"

Aubrey didn't answer "yes" or "no", just stood there without saying a word.

"Aubrey, are you going to pass it on to your sweetheart? Am I going to have a sister-in-law?" Aurora continued to make jokes.

Aubrey's face darkened, but he remained silent, lowering his head in thought, as if he hadn't heard the joke Aurora just said at all.

Perhaps he should seek a chance to speak to Mycroft Holmes, but now was not the time.

"I'm going upstairs to rest. Do you want to stay here for a few days?" Aubrey couldn't hold it any longer, and was going to go upstairs to his room dragging his exhaustion.He just asked casually, and didn't expect that his sister, who had run away from home for 12 years, would really stay in the manor for one night.

Aurora would never have agreed in the first place, but she couldn't help but feel a little headache when she thought of Sherlock who lived next door to her and had been deliberately avoiding her for a month.She thought to herself, instead of the two neighbors who live next door trying to hide here and there, it would be better to live in this place where no one can find it for a few days, at least don't worry about running into Sherlock when going out, and you can still spend a few days in a logical way class.

"Okay, let the house elf tidy up my room." Aurora said casually, brushing her long hair that was loose and tucked into the collar.

Hearing these words, Aubrey, who was dragging his feet upstairs, suddenly stopped, staring fixedly at Aurora standing in the middle of the living room, as if he had heard something extraordinary.

Seeing that his reaction was not as she imagined, Aurora was puzzled, and suddenly realized that Aubrey was disliking her hair, and said: "I can't comb my hair since I was a child, you don't know , why look at me like this? You like to use this thing to teach me since you were young, saying that I don't look like a girl. Why, isn't it over yet? "

"It seems that you still have self-knowledge, but it's not because of this. You can't comb your hair since you were a child, and I didn't expect you to make any progress after living in the Muggle world." Aubrey lowered his eyes, disgusted Looking at Aurora who seemed to have gone out without combing her hair, she said, "It's just that I didn't expect you to agree to stay here."

Aurora frowned slightly, and said puzzledly: "I thought you would welcome it."

"Welcome," Aubrey swept away the exhaustion on his face, and showed a rare sincere smile, "very."

"I only live for a few days," Aurora, who had never seen Aubrey smile much since she was a child, was shocked. She stared at the faint smile on his lips, her eyes were a little dull, but the words she said were still very proud. Jiao, "Also, don't let that house elf named Xianchen tidy up my room. I seriously doubt that that grudge will do anything to my room."

"Understood." The smile on the corner of Aubrey's mouth was fleeting, and he returned to such a tired state that Aurora once thought that her eyes were blind and had hallucinations.

After Aubrey finished speaking, he went up the stairs step by step, walked slowly to the end of the stairs, walked through the long and narrow corridor, and stood at the door of his room.He supported the cane in one hand, gently pushed the door open with the other hand, and closed it behind his back after entering.

And Aurora, who was still standing there, looked at his receding back with an inexplicable emotion in her heart.She raised her hand to straighten her hair again, looked vertically at the floor, there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, but there was a heavy breath in her eyes that didn't match the smile.

As expected, Li Chengzhi was still alive, just as she had reasoned and imagined before, he was arranging a big lie in front of her, trying to convince her that he was no longer alive.

Did he think about her feelings when he did this?

Probably there is, but he can't change the final outcome.

Orange juice, it has been many years since we left, and it is unknown whether we will meet again for the rest of my life.Remember when you said you would leave your property and company to me after you died, I said you should keep it for yourself?

To live until the years are gone and youth is no longer, is my best blessing to you.

Ever since Aubrey taught Xianchen a lesson, and the story spread among the house elves in Hopes Manor, no one dared to speak ill of Miss Aurora, including the one who was so frightened that she almost couldn't take care of herself that day. Dust.To be precise, it was more than just insulting words. When the house elves went to tidy up Aurora's room, they didn't even dare to speak loudly, for fear of offending this unfriendly young lady.

No one disturbed Aurora, she was happy at ease.

It was only on the seventh day of living here that Aurora, who had been skipping shifts for a week, finally realized that she wanted to call Inspector Lestrade to ask for leave, but found that there was no Signal.

At dinner that day, Aubrey, who had just returned from the Ministry of Magic, was sitting at the head of the long table, flipping through a stack of newspapers.And Aurora, who was sitting on his right, was eating the food carefully prepared by the house elves like the wind sweeping through the clouds. She could guess with her toes that the newspaper was the "Daily Prophet".

"Aubrey, there's no signal here. I can't call the inspector to ask for leave." Aurora said to Aubrey who was reading the front page of the newspaper criticizing the new Ministry of Magic policy while wolfing down her dinner.

"Then send the patron saint to report." Aubrey, who read the newspaper intently, didn't seem to be listening carefully to what Aurora was saying, and casually offered completely unfeasible suggestions.

Send a Patronus to report?How dare he say it.Is this teasing her?

"Aubrey?"

"Tomorrow I will ask for a day off, and I will take you to London to ask for leave." Aubrey still lowered his head, without even giving Aurora a look, and continued to read the newspaper.

"You want to ask for leave and take me to ask for leave?" Aurora repeated this rather awkward sentence with difficulty, and couldn't help wondering, "Can the director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters also ask for leave?"

Hearing this, Aubrey raised his head, frowned slightly, stared at the puzzled Aurora, and said helplessly, "The director is also human, why can't he ask for leave? Just tell the minister." .”

"Who is the current Minister of Magic?" Aurora, who didn't pay much attention to these things, asked casually.

"Hermione Granger," Aubrey replied.

The author has something to say:

Hermione, my goddess ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!

Warriors won ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

Aubrey is so spoiled!
