Aurora knew very well that this was a nightmare she hadn't seen for a long time.

What she understood even more was that if she wanted to pass Aubrey's examination, she had to pass this level.Even if you are defeated today, you will always have to overcome it in the future.

The fire was burning hotter and hotter, and Aurora began to panic. The man's yelling gradually turned into a roar, with piercing despair, as if his life was also burned to the last moment by the boundless fire.The woman's screaming also stopped, but the baby's crying became louder and louder, no longer as weak as before.

The surrounding area was glowing red in the light of the fire, but a few green lights suddenly flashed at this moment, dazzlingly bright.This bright red and green color seems to be dazzling lightning, and it seems to represent the endless confrontation between the two houses of Gryffindor and Slytherin for many years.The combination of red and green gives people a strong sense of visual impact, and they can't always be integrated. They just keep colliding hard, just like Gryffindor and Slytherin, which have always been two incompatible houses.

The baby's cries became louder, and Aurora's mind became more and more clear. She held her breath and concentrated, suppressing the strong uneasiness in her heart, and stabilized her mind.After a while, she slowly opened her eyes, and everything in front of her eyes disappeared.

The living room was still dark, only the fireplace at the back emitted heat and faint light. This warm light reflected on Aubrey's pure black wizard robe opposite him, adding some warmth to him.Holding a wand in his hand, he had a very serious expression on his face, and his black eyes were fixed on Aurora's expression. Seeing that her expression was clear and the fear on her face was gone, he felt relieved and relaxed without any trace. Take a breath.

Aurora pursed her lips tightly, holding her magic wand in her hand, her eyes became more and more determined, and she shouted: "Funny, funny!" The Boggart transformed from the fragments of the chandelier in front of her was ejected. He moved away and retreated between Aubrey and her.

Aurora knows very well that the best strategy now is to use another "funny funny" to bounce Boggart to Aubrey's side, so as to disturb his mind, and then take the opportunity to attack, and he will surely succeed.

But, yes, she was going to say no.In the Room of Requirement next to the hallway on the eighth floor of Hogwarts, Aurora witnessed what Aubrey's Boggart was, and knew that what he feared most in his heart was that he would be hurt or killed or injured.At that time, she promised her brother that she would protect herself in the Muggle world, but she broke her promise two days after she went back, and appeared in front of Aubrey half dead and bloody.

Although Aurora hadn't seen what she looked like at that time, she could imagine that it was not much different from the dead body she saw lying on the ground in the Room of Requirement that day.

She knew that it was what Aubrey was most afraid of, but she still appeared in front of Aubrey in Hopes Manor.

Aurora will probably forget in her whole life, the transparent unknown liquid that passed across her brother's cheek at the last second before she closed her eyes and passed out.

Aurora couldn't bear to let Aubrey see that scene again.When he was hesitating whether to use this Boggart to deal with him, Aubrey took this opportunity to mercilessly cast a disarming spell, and Aurora's wand fell into his hand immediately.

Such a transformation was also unexpected to Aurora.

A moment of indecision and a moment of soft-heartedness directly determined her failure in the examination.

Aubrey was still indifferent, as if he had already expected that Aurora would not have the heart to give him back the trick of using Boggart to disturb the other party's mind, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, he put away Two magic wands, gathered in the sleeves, walked over slowly, and said as they walked: "I have repeatedly emphasized to you just now, there is only one rule, and that is to beat me. No matter what method you use, as long as you can Defeating me is considered to have passed the audit examination."

Aurora frowned, and began to think about whether there were other countermeasures at this point.

Aubrey walked up to Aurora step by step, his footsteps were slightly heavy, and he stepped on the wooden floor, making a lot of noise, and he continued to say word by word following the footsteps: "In a serious duel In the two people, either you die or I live. So I was just your opponent just now, an opponent you need to work hard and do your best to defeat, not your brother. "

Aurora seemed to have made a decision in her heart. She held her breath and waited for Aubrey to approach her little by little. The expression on her face gradually became resolute, as if she wanted to fight one last time for the victory of the examination. Bundle.

"To pity your opponent is to treat yourself badly and put yourself in a dangerous situation. The so-called opponent is not for pity, but for defeat." While imparting years of experience, Aubrey stood firmly in Aurora's position. before.

Before Aubrey could stand still, Aurora suddenly clenched her right hand into a fist and hit him hard on the chin from bottom to top with a beautiful uppercut.At the same time, her left hand was not idle, and she took this opportunity to snatch the two wands that Aubrey kept in his right sleeve.

After finishing this series of flowing movements, before Aubrey could react and take any measures to remedy it, Aurora quickly stepped back several steps.Draw a circle with Aubrey as the center and his attack distance as the radius, and at this time Aurora just retreated outside the circle to avoid being attacked by him.

"Aubrey, you said that there is only one rule, and that is to defeat you, no matter what means you use. Although this review exam defaults to using only magic, you have never made it clear." Lola held two magic wands tightly in her hands, still staring at Aubrey closely, not daring to slack off in the slightest, for fear of missing his follow-up actions and turning defeat into victory.

And Aubrey just raised his hand and rubbed his chin, as if he didn't intend to continue.

Seeing this, Aurora dared to breathe a sigh of relief, raised her head and said proudly, "So, I won."

Aubrey was not at all annoyed at being beaten by his sister, but instead looked at Aurora who was a little complacent but didn't dare to show it with admiring eyes, and praised: "By analogy, Lola, you learned very well." .”

"So, I passed it?" Aurora was originally afraid that Aubrey would say that she violated the regulations and refused to admit it. When she heard him praise herself, she was relieved, and there was a radiance in her bright eyes. With a strange brilliance, he asked impatiently.

"Yes, you can pack up and get ready to go." Although there was a little reluctance in Aubrey's tone, he still had an indifferent expression, as if the matter had nothing to do with him, and joked in order to conceal his emotions, " Of course, if you really don't want to stay here, you can stay for a few more days, I don't dislike you for being a prodigal."

Aurora raised her chin, her face full of dissatisfaction. She wanted to say, "You are the one who is reluctant", but the words rolled over silently in her heart, and she still didn't say them. He retorted: "My appetite probably follows my elder brother, and I don't know who to blame."

Aubrey hooked the corners of his lips invisibly, but said nothing.

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

Aurora apparated into a deep alley near Baker Street. There were few people here on weekdays, and it was also the best place Aubrey chose to apparate every time he came to visit her.

She originally wanted to treat the wand as a thorn hairpin and coil up her long hair, so that two birds with one stone could be killed, the loose hair would not be in the way, and the wand would not arouse suspicion.It's a pity that Aurora has never been good at fiddling with hair. After trying a few times, she found that her hands-on ability was really limited, so she finally gave up.

Aurora tilted her head and thought for a while, then stuffed the wand into the sleeve of her shirt, fastened the cuff buttons firmly, shook her arm, and found that the wand could not fall out, so she felt relieved and looked at herself. Go in the direction of the house.

The door was unlocked and ajar.Aurora felt that something was wrong, thinking that it might be someone from JM who came to investigate whether she was really dead, and suddenly felt a little nervous, she immediately untied her cuffs and tightened her wand, and slowly stepped on it. Stairs, peeking in through the crack in the door of the small living room.

It was Sherlock she hadn't seen in a long time.

Sherlock was sitting alone on the sofa, holding a copy of "Sense and Sensibility".Aurora silently calculated in her mind, and found that he would turn a page about every ten seconds, and she didn't know if she was reading it seriously.In addition, there is a thick stack of books next to Sherlock, including literary classics such as "Three Hundred Tang Poems", "Anna Karenina" and "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio", all of which are classics. The classic, Aurora recognized at a glance, it was taken from her bookshelf.

Didn't he always despise this kind of literature?Why do you still look at it with such relish?Aurora couldn't help wondering.

Sherlock watched "Sense and Sensibility" very seriously, frowning from time to time, and stretched it out after a while, very quiet, just like him who hadn't encountered any interesting case in the past three days and wanted to go to the house to expose the tiles The restlessness makes two people different, but it makes Aurora, who is watching coldly, have a feeling of "the years are quiet and the world is stable".

"Sense and Sensibility" is a long novel written by the famous British female writer Jane Austen. It tells the story of Eleanor, the elder sister in a squire family, who is good at controlling emotions with reason, while Marianne, the younger sister, has no restraint in emotion.In the face of love, the two sisters reacted very differently.

Aurora couldn't help but have a bold guess, maybe Sherlock was also wavering between these two options at this time.Is it rational, or emotional?This was the most pressing question before him.

Is it rational, or emotional?

The author has something to say:
