[Shen Xia + HP] In the name of a detective

Aurora always thought that she didn't care about these things at home anymore, but it didn't seem to be the case.

"Don't look at it." The scroll opened in his hand was pulled over by Aubrey beside him, and slowly closed.

Aurora couldn't help but squeeze out a false smile, and murmured, "It's okay, Aubrey, I don't care about this."

"The heart of a person who responds to the Room of Requirement, you can deceive others, but you cannot deceive your own heart." Aubrey mercilessly exposed Aurora's lie, and continued, "The person who appeared in the Room of Requirement Things are the best proof of your heart."

Aurora lowered her head, staring fixedly at the floor, as if trying to see a hole through it.After a while, she raised her head and smiled at the worried Aubrey, and continued to search the room.

Aurora rummaged around, and there was nothing unusual in the Room of Requirement, except for the ebony wardrobe.It kept making weird noises, as if something inside was banging on the cabinet door.

She stood in front of the closet door, fully prepared, ready to go, and opened the closet door with a "bang".

Before Aurora had time to see what was in the cabinet, she was immersed in darkness.It was black everywhere, and she looked around, but she couldn't see the end.She stretched out her hands and kept shaking them in front of her eyes, but she couldn't see anything.At that moment, she even felt that she was blind.

But when Aurora heard the man's roar, she immediately understood what was going on.The man seemed to be in a fierce battle with others, and from time to time, a few beams of magic spells flashed, cutting through the boundless darkness.One baby may have been frightened by the sight in front of him, crying continuously.And her mother yelled and pleaded in despair, hoping someone would let them go.

This is not a world for the blind, but a nightmare.

What will happen next, Aurora, who has had countless nightmares, knows clearly.

It is fire.

The fire burned vigorously, burning the originally dark field of vision red and hot in an instant, and it burned higher and higher. It looked like it had jumped into the sky, with the sound of something being scorched outside.

Immediately, a dazzling green light flashed.

Then came the second green light that hurt her eyes.

Just as Aurora was waiting for the third road to arrive, and it was all over, she heard someone in the distance yell vaguely: "Funny funny." Then she suddenly opened her eyes.

Her vision returned to normal, but it was still dark.Black marble bar, ebony hangers and wardrobe, pure black wallpaper, black satin curtains, and a black coat on her body.Maybe she finally knows why she has such a preference for black things, because in her subconscious nightmare, she herself lives in darkness.

Her life should have been black, but that voice just now saved her.

That was Aubrey, and it was her brother, Aubrey Hopps.

He was waving his wand, casting a spell on a man lying in front of him.Aurora had never seen him show such an expression before, like extreme fear, but also somewhat anxious, more helpless.It is the kind of person who knows that the person closest to him is suffering from pain and torture, and the person he loves the most has suffered injury and death, but he is still helpless.

Aurora had never connected the word "powerless" with her elder brother Aubrey, until this moment, she saw his desperate expression with her own eyes, and Aubrey who was so helpless.

She supported her dizzy head, the screams of women and the cries of babies seemed to be lingering in her ears.She turned her eyes and looked at the man lying in front of Aubrey, the bloody corpse without a piece of intact skin.

It was her own dead body.

The body of Aurora Hopps.

As smart as Aurora, she has already figured out why she suddenly remembered that nightmare, and even the scene just now was more vivid and vivid than in the nightmare, giving her a feeling of being there, and she has long understood that What kind of creature is in the ebony wardrobe.

Boggarts, a shape-shifting magical creature in the wizarding world, like to live in dark and narrow places, such as wardrobes or cabinets.No one knows exactly what a Boggart looks like, because no one has ever seen it in person.The method of expelling them is "fun and funny", and what kills them is human laughter.

Boggarts can see into the hearts of humans and transform into what they fear most.

What Aurora fears most is the nightmare that has haunted her for many years.

And what Aubrey fears most is her, who has been tortured and devastated, and finally died in pain, dripping with blood, without a piece of intact skin all over her body.

"are you OK?"

"are you OK?"

After a long silence, Aurora and Aubrey raised their bowed heads at the same time and asked.

"I'm fine, I just want to stay alone for a while." Aurora raised her hand, wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, turned her head to look at the door of the Room of Requirement, not daring to meet Aubrey's Looking at her, she pursed her lips and said, "So don't follow me, I will come back by myself."

As he spoke, he stomped his feet and walked out the door.

Aubrey reflexively wanted to take a step to follow, just raised his foot, but put it down again.

Aurora knew that Aubrey, as an elder brother, cared about her own safety very much, but she never thought that she cared so much.Her mind was in a mess now, full of various elements from the scene just now, and she couldn't find room to think about Aubrey's concern for her.She was a little afraid to face Aubrey, or to say that she was afraid to face her attitude towards him before, which made her very guilty and made her feel uncomfortable. She wanted to escape from this place where only Aubrey and her were alone. place.

Moreover, she has more important things to do now.

This is what Aurora decided to do when Aubrey mentioned that the Room of Requirement was on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aurora walked quickly in the corridor on the eighth floor, heading straight for the principal's office, billowing billows from the hem of the black coat she was wearing.Walking to a stone beast, she recognized the principal's office behind it, and stopped.

The stone beast by the corridor has been staring straight ahead for hundreds of years, with dull eyes, waiting for someone who can speak the password correctly.

So the question is, what is the password?But if there is no password, what to do at this time, maybe knock on the door?

Although it seemed unreliable, Aurora decided to give it a try.She knocked on the door behind the stone beast a few times, and after a while, a very old voice "come in" came from inside the room, and then... the door opened.

Aurora entered from the door, walked up the movable spiral staircase, and when she finally reached the second door, she held the brass knocker and opened the door.

The walls are covered with portraits of the previous headmasters of Hogwarts, including Phineas Nigellus Black, Armando Dippet, Albus Dumbledore, and Severus Snape.The bookshelf next to it reached to the ceiling, and it was filled with books about Transfiguration.Behind the desk sat an elderly woman with square glasses, curly black hair tied up in a high bun, and dark green wizard robes.

"Hi, Headmaster McGonagall." Aurora learned from books that the current headmaster of Hogwarts is Minerva McGonagall. She bowed to the serious professor and greeted him respectfully and politely. Say hello.

"Miss Hopps, I'm assuming you shouldn't be here." Principal McGonagall raised her hand and pushed her glasses, her sharp eyes fixed on Aurora in front of her through the square glasses.

"I came to Hogwarts with my brother Aubrey Hopps. He should have written to you and asked for your permission before coming." Aurora replied respectfully.

"Yes, I agree." Principal McGonagall nodded slightly, and said in a very stern tone, "But what I mean is that you should not appear outside the door of the principal's office."

"I came here specially to visit you, Principal McGonagall." Aurora showed a smile that matched what she said now. She had obviously been with her brother Aubrey for a long time, and she was fascinated by him. After learning the tricks in the officialdom, even the corners of the mouth curled up just right when he smiled.

"Then what about your brother, Mr. Hopps, why didn't he accompany you? Letting a sister who can't magic act alone in Hogwarts is a very irresponsible behavior." Principal McGonagall frowned. , obviously very dissatisfied with Aubrey's behavior, and also slightly worried about whether Aurora would get lost when she wandered alone for a while.

Aurora bowed slightly, and replied: "Please don't blame him for this matter. I insisted on going out by myself, and he couldn't hold me back."

Principal McGonagall's frown deepened, and she said with a straight face, "Miss Hopps, wandering around unfamiliar places by yourself is not a good choice."

"From a certain point of view, even though I've never been here before, I still understand it." Aurora looked directly at Principal McGonagall behind the desk, with a low-browed look, and explained, "I'm here When I was very young, in order to get familiar with the environment here as soon as possible after entering school, I specially studied the book "Hogwarts, a School History", and I am very familiar with the architectural structure in the castle."

She paused for a while, and finally brought the topic to what she wanted to know: "It's just a pity that I couldn't get admitted to this school as I wished."

When Principal McGonagall heard what she said, he immediately withdrew the stern expression on his face, and said apologetically, "Miss Hopps, I'm sorry for your experience, it shouldn't have been like this of."

The author has something to say:

I read the novel about not having curly hair every day. In fact, the name Silver, I thought it was a boy at first.

Today I will continue to recommend novels to everyone, the ancient suspenseful detective novel "Hairpin Record", the writing is very good, the description is very delicate, the reasoning part is also very exciting, I really like the character design of the hero and heroine.There are four parts in total, and the third part is sweet and sweet, but the first two cases are also really good-looking.Highly recommended~~
