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

Aurora didn't understand why Aubrey would agree to the little girl's request until the little girl Andelle Ord dragged her to the direction of their house.Judging from his appearance, he obviously didn't like Andel, and he was not even willing to answer her questions at the beginning.

Along the way, Audelle Ord was still chirping and asking things, asking the two of them what Hogwarts was like, but Aurora, who had never studied there, couldn't answer most of the questions. He could only leave the burden of coaxing the little girl to Aubrey.Aubrey, who has always been moody and angry, almost broke his success after being pestered by Aundelle to ask all kinds of weird questions.

"Aunt Delia can talk, but Uncle Seth can't let them stay." The little boy who had been silent for a long time suddenly said.

When Andel Ord, who was originally in high spirits, heard this sentence, she instantly withered, lowered her head and stopped talking.Not long after, she suddenly raised her head again, looked at the little boy with starry eyes expectantly, and said, "Calgal, why don't you let your uncles and aunts live in your house? Auntie Lois is so gentle and kind, she will definitely Yes."

The little boy Calgary, who was looking down at the ground, raised his eyes and glanced at Andair Ord after hearing the words, with an expression of "you are kidding me", and replied in a neutral way: "It's not I insist on taking the two of them home, and I want to hear what Hogwarts is like, I'm not interested in that."

"But my father will definitely scold me." Andel Ord's fair little face was full of anxiety, and after realizing that something was wrong with what she said, she changed her mouth and said, "My consciousness Yes, my father will certainly not let them live in the house."

Calgary was silent for a moment before hesitatingly said: "I'll go back and ask my mother."

As soon as Andel Ord changed the expression on her face, she came back to life in an instant.From what she said before, Calgary's mother seemed to be a good talker, that is to say, as long as Calgary agreed to this matter, his mother would also agree.

The square was not far from their two homes, and within a short while they walked to the gates of two adjacent manors.

Just when Calgary was about to bring the Aurora brothers and sisters in with some reluctance, Aubrey suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned his head and said to Aurora beside him, "Lola, follow me first." Let him go in, Seth Ord and I have some work matters to talk about, and I'll come to you after it's over."

Aurora immediately understood the reason why Aubrey agreed to the little girl's request. It turned out that there were work matters to be discussed with the difficult-to-talk father in the legend of Adel Ord.She twitched the corner of her lips, responded, and followed Calgary into their house.

"I'm Calgary Windsor." The little boy formally introduced himself.

"Aurora Hopps." She briefly introduced her name, too.

After that, the little boy never said a word to her again, he just took her into the living room and motioned her to sit down, the atmosphere was a little strangely silent for a while, but fortunately he went upstairs to find his Mother, leave Aurora alone in the living room to look at the furnishings here.

The interior layout has a very strong Gryffindor atmosphere, which even Aurora, who doesn't know much about the four colleges, can clearly notice. Everywhere is either red or gold, which is very similar to the decoration of Hopes Manor.Only a richly decorated chest by the fireplace is out of tune with the furnishings here, it seems to belong to Slytherin.There is also a key-shaped silver hairpin inlaid with emeralds on the box, which is small and unique and exquisite in workmanship.

Before I had time to take a closer look, there was a slight sound of footsteps on the stairs, and a middle-aged woman in a dark green shawl and a light blue dress walked down gracefully.The corner of her mouth is curved in a proper arc, and her smile is also very warm. People can't help but be deeply attracted by the gentleness of her gestures and gestures the first time they see her.

Presumably this is Calgary's mother, Mrs. Windsor.

"Hi, Ma'am, I'm Aurora Hopps, please don't take me for bothering you late at night." Aurora nodded to her very politely, with a smile that matched the words.

Mrs. Windsor also nodded, but suddenly froze when she saw Aurora's face, but after a few seconds, she realized that she slowly moved to sit beside her, and said with a slight smile: "Huo Miss Puth is too polite. I have a question I want to ask you, and I don't know if it's too intrusive."

Aurora has always been fond of such gentle and demure women (such as Song Jiuhua), and replied without hesitation: "Excuse me, I will know everything."

Mrs. Windsor lowered her eyes and avoided eye contact with Aurora, as if she would not hear the answer she didn't want, she asked softly: "I don't know if Miss Hopes is related to the Black family? "

Aurora was taken aback by this question. She knew that the Black family was an ancient magical family, and almost all of them came from Slytherin for generations, but she didn't understand why Mrs. Windsor would ask herself such a question, her lips were tightly pursed Spit out two words: "No."

Mrs. Windsor thought that Aurora was unwilling to admit it, so she smiled shyly and said, "I'm offended."

Aurora immediately understood what was going on in her heart, and explained: "Madam should also know the surname Hopps. Our family has been Gryffindors for generations, so how could I have anything to do with the Black family?"

Mrs. Windsor also thought it made sense, nodded, but still said unwillingly: "Maybe Miss Hopps didn't notice that the two of us have some similarities in appearance. In fact, the first time I saw you just now Eyes, I think you look a lot like my grandmother, but it's a pity that my grandmother and I only have a bit of similarity in eyes."

Aurora looked carefully at Mrs. Windsor's eyes, and found that they were indeed strikingly similar to her own. She was suspicious, and she believed her words to a certain extent.After thinking about it, I came to the conclusion that Mrs. Windsor's surname before she married was probably Black.

"Miss Hopps must be related to the Black family, but you may not have noticed it." Mrs. Windsor came to a conclusion and said.

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

In the end, Aurora still didn't stay at Windsor Manor because Aubrey, who had finished talking about work, came to find her from the next door and insisted on taking her back to his home to rest.And she was really not used to living in other people's homes, so she cooperated with his rhetoric and rejected Mrs. Windsor's good intentions.

On the fifth day, which was also the last day of Aurora's vacation, Aubrey, who originally planned to take his sister to visit his workplace, followed her wishes and came to Hogwarts again through the fireplace in Professor Neville Longbottom's office .

Aurora insisted on going out for a walk by herself on the grounds that she couldn't answer the little girl's question after being here once, and left Aubrey in Professor Longbottom's office.In fact, she also knew that this excuse was very far-fetched, and knew that Aubrey could not believe her nonsense, but he still didn't go into it and let her wander around the castle alone.The only condition is that you can't go to the kitchen to steal a drink.

With black lines all over her face, Aurora walked slowly up the stairs, stepping heavily on the steps step by step, as if stepping on her own heart, making her breathless.At this moment, she was a little nervous. She was about to get the clues she dreamed of from the previous Hogwarts student list, and she didn't know whether it was joy or worry.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, at the door of the principal's office on the eighth floor.

She came to the front of the gatekeeper stone beast as promised, whispered "Elphstone", and the gate opened.

There was no one in the principal's office, only the Sorting Hat on the top shelf was practicing singing loudly. Aurora thought that the idiom "howling ghosts and howling wolves" was not enough to describe its singing at this time.

When the Sorting Hat saw Aurora coming as scheduled, it stopped singing wildly, and proudly showed off: "I'm making up the college song for next year's freshmen, what do you think?"

Aurora also relied on the Sorting Hat to provide clues to the student list, and she didn't dare to offend it just like that, so she reluctantly said something against her will: "It sounds very good, new students will definitely like it. It's a pity that I didn't come here to go to school , otherwise I will definitely be conquered by your singing."

The Sorting Hat obviously heard that Aurora's words were not sincere, snorted, and commented slightly mockingly: "I was right when I said last time, if you came to Hogwarts 11 years ago , I will definitely sort you into Slytherin."

Aurora shrugged, noncommittal.

The Sorting Hat seemed to want to lose its temper, but because of Principal McGonagall's order, it could only obediently tell her where the previous Hogwarts student list was kept, and said awkwardly: "The third drawer on the left of the desk , find it yourself."

After that, don't make a sound anymore.

Aurora thought that this serious-looking sorting hat was actually very cute. She pursed her lips and smiled, walked around to the back of the desk, squatted down, opened the third drawer from the left, and began to search.

The student list is not difficult to find. Principal McGonagall has always been known for her rigorous and meticulous personality. Naturally, her things are neatly packed and not in a mess.Aurora had no trouble finding a list thicker than three full-English Oxford dictionaries.

Calculated according to the time, if she came to Hogwarts to study 11 years ago, she should be a student of the 11th class.Aurora quickly flipped through the list page by page, and finally found her crossed-out name at the very end.

Aurora Hopps (dropped admission)
