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

Yulou Jinque went home and drunk Luoyang with plum blossoms.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, probably due to the difference in the winter climate this year, the plum blossoms in Luoyang are born much earlier than in previous years.The branches of the tree are dotted with plain plum blossom buds with icy muscles and bones. If there is one word to describe it, it is the word "clear".

Innocent and flawless, the fragrance overflows far away, fresh and refined, Lingshuang is proud of the snow in the ice and snow, as if he can't feel the slightest cold.

And Li Chengzhi was standing next to a plum tree, looking at the plum blossoms that had not yet bloomed, feeling the scent of flowers, thoughtful.He held the phone tightly in his hand, and Song Jiuhua's contact information was displayed on the interface, and the fingertip of his right index finger paused on the dial column, hesitating.

Not long ago, his superior told him the news that Aurora died during the execution of the mission. After all, it was because of her that he was forced to feign death and return to the country for action. The superior also paid close attention to her real-time situation.

Unlike anyone else, Li Chengzhi knew Aurora's true identity and the existence of the magical world.What he knew better was that, as a wizard, Aubrey would definitely not let his beloved sister die just like that.

Since I decided to follow the arrangement of my superiors, cut off all contact with Aurora, and stayed away from London to return to the country, Aubrey's magic was capable of orchestrating a reasonable murder, so naturally it was possible to arrange Aurora's suspended animation.

But if I guessed wrong, if Aurora's injury was too serious and there was no time for Aubrey to rescue her...

Li Chengzhi looked down at the bright phone interface again, staring at the three big characters Song Jiuhua, hesitating whether to dial it.

In London, maybe Song Jiuhua would know more, but he couldn't contact her.If Song Jiuhua knew that he was still alive, then the murder that he directed before would lose all meaning.

Li Chengzhi also knew that he could only get the most accurate news by asking Aubrey at this time, but now he didn't have his contact information at all.Originally, when he was reporting Aurora's movements to Aubrey, he had a mobile phone with him.

However, when Li Chengzhi asked him to help him realize his suspended animation plan, Aubrey said that the two were originally a cooperative relationship, and after his wish was fulfilled, they would be cleared up, and naturally there was no need to keep the contact information.Then, in front of Li Chengzhi, he threw away the useless mobile phone.

There's no way Aurora will die.

Li Chengzhi stared at the contact's name, and finally heaved a sigh of relief after a long time, and pressed the lock screen button on the left side of the phone.

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

And Song Jiuhua in London was also holding his mobile phone, and opened the contact interface, and the word "Aurora" was impressively written on it.In the dark room, the bright light made her eyes ache.

Just today, she learned the sad news of Aurora's death from Scotland Yard officers.

In fact, to be honest, ever since his ex-husband Rogers attempted to murder himself in order to obtain insurance money, Song Jiuhua had already looked down on life and death.

In this world, newborns are born every day, and people die. Maybe the elderly die naturally, or young people encounter accidents.According to the probability, there will always be people around you who will become pregnant and have children, and there will always be people who die unexpectedly. These are all normal things.

There are people who survive catastrophe like her, and people who fly like Aurora.

It's no big deal.

Song Jiuhua tried his best to instill such principles in himself, as if he wanted to brainwash himself, but the result was obviously not very successful.With a slight trembling of her fingertips, she pressed the small sign on the contact interface that represented outgoing calls.

"Beep-beep-beep-"

The endless busy tone rang from the phone.

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

Aurora, who was only wearing a thin pajamas, got up, put a blanket on her body, and took the pearl hairpins that Aubrey removed from her hair on the bedside table, and lightly Move to the door, quietly unscrew the handle, and slowly open the door.She pretended to be wandering aimlessly in the corridor on the second floor, while paying attention to whether there were Aubrey or house-elves nearby, while repeatedly scanning the door of the study at the end of the corridor with the corner of her eye.

There is her destination today.

After realizing that there was no one or elf nearby, Aurora quickly ran to the end of the corridor and stood outside the study.

The door, of course, was locked.

Naturally, Aurora was well prepared. She took the pearl hairpin she took from the bedside cabinet just now, stuffed it into the keyhole, turned left and right a few times, and the door opened.After she walked in, she quietly turned around and closed the door, curled her lips, as if mocking the useless spell of "alahoo opening".Correspondingly, locking the door is even more useless. It can only be difficult for those little wizards who haven't learned the spell at Hogwarts and those Muggles who don't know how to open the lock.

The study room is surrounded by bookshelves reaching to the ceiling, standing close to the walls on all sides, filled with all kinds of books.There is also a desk next to the window, and the books on it are neatly arranged.

With years of experience in watching suspenseful TV series and performing missions as an agent, Aurora felt that the most secret files would naturally be hidden in the most secret place, so she moved to the bookshelf almost immediately, groping to see what was there. There is no such thing as a hidden compartment.

Sure enough, it was as she expected, but after a while, Aurora found an inconspicuous hidden compartment hidden behind the books on the bookshelf standing in front of the wall on the side where the window was open.

Just like in the TV series, important confidential documents are always hidden in the study room, and they must be behind a shelf full of books.

Aurora opened the small door of the hidden compartment, and found that there was nothing inside except a scroll wrapped with a golden-red thread.

A gold thread and a red thread are alternately intertwined to form a rope, which is wound around the outside of the scroll.The parchment used as the scroll has been slightly yellowed, obviously aged for a long time.

Aurora will never forget this thing in her life.

Isn't this the genealogy of the Hopps family?

What Owen Hopps tried so hard to hide was just a family tree that she had seen as a child?There was nothing unusual about this genealogy except that the name Aurora Hopps was not on it.

Wait, abnormal?

Perhaps the absence of her name on the family tree is an anomaly in itself.Aurora's intuition told her that this matter was far from being as simple as she imagined, and there must be some clues in it that she had never noticed before.

Aurora still clearly remembers walking back and forth in the corridor on the eighth floor while silently chanting "give me a place that can tell me the truth" before the smooth door of the Room of Requirement slowly appeared on the wall.She couldn't figure it out at the time. The furnishings in the Room of Requirement were almost the same as those in her home. Apart from the cabinets containing the Boggarts and the table with the genealogy of the Hopps family, there was nothing special about it. How could she tell? She is the truth.

Aurora thought something was wrong with the Room of Requirement, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.It wasn't the Room of Requirement that went wrong, it was herself.

Slowly opened the scroll, and it was exactly the same as what I saw before. At the bottom of the family tree, the names of Owen Hopps and Su Liushuang were connected by a silver double line, and another vertical silver line came out. Point to Aubrey Hopps.

There is no Aurora Hopps on the family tree.She seemed to understand.

However, after discovering the shocking secret, Aurora still couldn't believe her guess, and hurriedly searched the bookshelf for books about the savior Harry Potter to confirm her idea.She vaguely remembered seeing the huge tapestry that Harry Potter saw in his godfather Sirius Black's house, that is, No. 12 Grimmauld Place, when he was studying when he was a child. On it was the Black family's genealogy.

Aurora took a book from the shelf and rummaged through what she wanted to see.

That's right, it was this page, which mentioned that there was a small round hole that looked like a cigarette burnt on the original place of Sirius Black on the tapestry, which meant that he had been expelled.

And if Aurora Hopps was really expelled from the Hopps family, there should be a small round hole burned through next to Aubrey Hopps' name.But on the contrary, the piece of parchment was intact, just an empty piece, without any trace of her name.

So this probably only explains a little bit.

Aurora never had the surname Hopps to begin with.

She does not belong to this family.

Owen Hopps is not her father, Su Liushuang is not her mother, and naturally, Aubrey is not her biological brother.This can also explain the attitude of Owen Hopps and Su Liushuang towards her when she was a child, and the fact that Aurora couldn't understand why they didn't let her use magic power and learn magic.

In this way, everything that happened to her can be explained clearly, and it turned out to be so.

Why did Owen Hopps and Su Liushuang treat themselves like guests?Because Aurora was originally a guest in this house.Why is there no name on the Hopps family tree?Not because she was removed from the list, but because she shouldn't have appeared on it.

Why did Aubrey vowed to restore her identity after taking over as the head of the family, but never mentioned this matter after hearing what Owen Hopps said?Because he knew that his name was not eligible to appear on that scroll.Why did the house elves in this manor not respect her at all, especially when Xianchen said that she was not a lady of the Hopps family?Because she was not the young lady of this family, there was nothing worthy of their respect.

Aurora lowered her eyes and sat down on the ground.

She should have thought of this earlier.

The author has something to say:

The orange juice is bubbling again, and I'm still going to let him see Miss Lola again, but I'll save it for later.

I said in the comment area that Lola is not my own cutie, congratulations, you guessed it right again? (???????)?get!
