Thanks to the above readers for smashing mine (づ￣3￣)づ╭?~ The green-eyed boy on the screen has messy hair, and there are a few pinches on the back of his head that are extremely stubbornly upturned, and he can’t hold it down, just like his Same as father.

The big black dog stared at the boy almost greedily, not even noticing what the two of them were talking about.

It was almost the same face as his father's, but James wouldn't show such a shy expression--even when facing Lily.

Of course, he doesn't know what James looks like to Lily when the two of them are alone in private, but he prefers this expression to be similar to Lily.

"...By the way, Alex, I wanted to ask just now." After chatting about the Christmas holidays for a while, Harry hesitated, "What is that black thing behind you?"

When Alex turned his head, he saw the big black dog tilting its head, pretending to be stupid, "I don't understand what you are talking about".

The silver-haired Hufflepuff twitched the corners of his mouth: "...Ah, it's Blake. Uncle Bucky picked up the dog. The previous owner doesn't want it anymore. It looks like it has been wandering alone for a long time."

Harry nodded: "I can tell." Although the big dog was big, it was skinny, and only its fur was well groomed. It could be seen that it had been taken good care of recently, but it still couldn't hide its appearance. The fur doesn't have much shine.

"But, you call it Black?" Harry asked in disbelief. He was at school on Christmas, but he also knew about Azkaban's escape.

The escaped prisoner is called Sirius Black!

And now, his friend named his dog Blake...

"That's right, because it's black!" Alex said as a matter of course, "Uncle Bucky's name, Harry, you don't think it's good, do you?"

Harry was about to nod when he heard Alex continue: "I originally wanted to name it Agana."

"...I suddenly feel that Mr. Barnes's name is quite good, and it fits the facts." Harry silently wiped his sweat.

The topic turned around on Blake and then back again: "Is the magic mirror you mentioned earlier the queen's magic mirror in Snow White?"

Harry laughed: "No, it can't talk, and it won't tell you who is the most beautiful woman in the world. But you can see the picture you want to see most in your heart." He paused , with a slightly lower tone, "I saw Mom and Dad, and many, many people, they all have the same eyes, ears, face, and messy hair as me..."

What he longed for was family.

The big black dog uttered a low cry that seemed to be whimpering.

"What happened to it?" Harry asked suspiciously.

Alex patted its head when he heard the sound: "Probably he remembered its former owner... Black is very smart and can understand what we say, and when he heard you talking about family members, he thought of his former family members. Blake, you have a new family now."

The silver-haired girl said as she gently hugged the big black dog, and also hugged the Samoyed who kept bowing her head into her arms.

When she let go, Alex felt as if she saw the water in the eyes of the big black dog, but she didn't see it when she looked carefully. She suspected that she was wrong, or some kind of reflection.

"By the way, Harry, is that magic mirror still there?" Alex asked, "I'm curious, if only I could take a look... Although I guess I'll probably see countless Uncle Bucky in it With Agana... well, with Blake."

Seeing the big black dog beside her, she added.

The boy next to Wang Wang laughed out loud: "There are a lot of people and dogs that are exactly the same, that would be too scary."

The silver-haired girl thought for a while, then hesitated and said: "...It seems a little bit, then I'm not greedy, I just want Uncle Bucky. One to go out, one to accompany me... Well, it's best if I have two, One at school and one at home with Uncle Bucky."

"I think you might as well draw a portrait of yourself and let your portrait be at home." Harry's complaints were particularly accurate.

The two children chatted very happily, until Alex suddenly felt a chill.

"Alex?" Noticing the sudden change in his friend's face, Harry called out to her.

"Sorry Harry, I'll contact you later." The silver-haired girl hurriedly apologized, and closed Tao Bei. At her feet, Agana and Black had already stood up, their teeth bared, staring at the box door.

Such a defensive reaction combined with a bad premonition she felt made her subconsciously hold the oak wand in her hand.

However, before she could release any magic, a chill ran through her whole body.

From head to toe, she seemed to be suddenly frozen in a huge icy block, whether it was blood, breath, or even thoughts, all froze at this moment.

There was a huge breathing sound next to her ear, she heard it was her own, but...

Strange, I'm obviously still breathing.

But why is there a kind of...fear that even breathing will stop?

Everything in the box reorganized and separated in her eyes as deep and shallow double images.

The icy darkness covered everything, but she saw tall things surrounded by them. They seemed to be all dressed in black robes, covering the whole body, only their heads were exposed, but the black robes didn't look like cloth, but like What is the keratinized substance of molluscs.

what is that……

Those heads are all octopus-like heads, and the mouth of each head has several tentacle-like tentacles, which are constantly moving.

Her breathing and thinking were frozen by fear and despair, her whole body was bound by something, unable to move, she could only watch helplessly as one of them approached, with octopus-like tentacles sticking out from under the black robe, coming from a nearby pool Fish out a tadpole and put it in her ear...

no, do not want!

help me!Who can help me!

Fear, or something else, made her unable to make any sound. She seemed to have hallucinations. She seemed to hear the tadpole burrowing into her ear, all the way into her brain along the ear canal, ate her brain...

The vision was blurred, the sound of the oak wand falling to the ground seemed to come through the water, she seemed to have fallen headfirst to the ground, the illusions around her receded, and the pain of being eaten by her brain seemed to fade away, which seemed to wake her up for a while, but it didn't seem to help.

She can't feel anything anymore.

The blue-purple eyes that were lively and full of smiles in the past were so empty that they seemed to be unable to see anything, and everything turned into deep and shallow double images in her vision.

In a daze, she felt as if she saw a man stand up from behind Black and take the oak wand that fell on the ground.

"Call God Guard!"

The skinny man said in a hoarse voice, and a large silver-white dog emerged from the tip of the staff and passed through the door of the box.

The chill seemed to be receding, but she had fallen into a complete coma.

When he woke up, he was already in the school infirmary.

Cedric and Gabrielle stood by and saw that she woke up and quickly called Madam Pomfrey. The chubby medical wing queen was involved like a wind, holding a large cup of hot drink in her hand.

"It's alright kid, it's alright, it's alright!" Madam Pomfrey hugged the girl who seemed to be still recovering and gently patted her on the shoulder, with the other hand she stuffed the cup of hot drink into her hand, "Take a sip, take a sip, it will keep you warm."

Alex's thoughts hadn't fully recovered yet, her mind was so muddled that it was difficult to clear her mind, and the chill all over her body hadn't left, making her subconsciously want to shiver.

The drink in hand is the only source of heat.

With trembling hands, she picked up the cup and took a sip. The hot chocolate slid down her esophagus into her stomach, dispelling the cold and warming her up.

"Thank you..." When she opened her mouth, she realized that her voice was unimaginably hoarse, but even so, she insisted on finishing what she wanted to say, "I'm much better."

Madam Pomfrey shook her head and didn't say much.

"You don't look well at all," Gabrielle said in her stead.

Alex didn't answer, but asked hoarsely, "What happened?"

That sudden chill, that seemed real... She shuddered, preventing herself from thinking about it.

Cedric and Gabriel looked at each other, and the third-year boy gathered his thoughts and said, "It's Agana. We heard Agana's barking. When the prefect and the student council president rushed over, they found the dementor Trying to enter your box... the seniors sent out the Patronus to drive back the dementors, opened the box, and saw you passed out on the seat."

seat?She seemed to have fallen to the ground... A trace of doubt appeared in Alex's heart, but it quickly dissipated: she was already unconscious at the time, maybe she made a mistake.

"Agana and a big black dog guarded you, and then we sent you to the hospital wing, but pets are not allowed here, so we asked Hagrid to take care of Agana and the other dog—except Hagrid , I am afraid that no one can drag Agana away from you and prevent it from coming to you." Gabriel added.

Alex nodded, her attention shifted to another place: "Dementor?" Her voice was so hoarse that she couldn't bear it, and each syllable seemed to have a knife in her throat. Scratch, but she didn't care about these, and still asked, "What is that?"

"It's a very bad thing."

It was neither Cedric nor Gabrielle who answered her, but Dumbledore who had just walked in through the door.

Behind him was the potions professor, his face as gloomy and sallow as ever.

"They are the guards of Azkaban."

Dumbledore said, walking to the bedside: "Mr. Diggory, Mr. Truman, thank you very much for being here with Miss Barnes until now, but I am afraid that Mr. Truman is also needed to maintain order in the hall now." He said to After Gabriel finished speaking, he said to Cedric, "Can Mr. Diggory help Mr. Truman go to the lobby? I have something to ask Miss Barnes, and I will send her back to the Hufflepuff public later." lounge."

The two boys nodded, Cedric said softly to Alex that we will bring you something to eat, and hurried away with Gabriel.

Alex nodded indiscriminately, probably because of the cup of hot chocolate just now, her mind finally cleared up a bit, and she also remembered what a dementor was.

Without facial features, wearing a cloak and not knowing what it looks like, it can suck people's souls away.Wherever it passes, it sucks joy away and reminds one of the scariest things...

the scariest thing ever...

The silver-haired girl shuddered.

What she saw at that time, the illusion, was it really an illusion?

Is it true that there was a day when she was... She bit the tip of her tongue hard to stop herself from thinking about it.

Camping dementors around the school, Albus, I can't believe this is something you'd allow! Madam Pomfrey didn't hide her anger at all, but she still carefully examined the silver-haired Hufflepuff's situation gently and patiently, "This child won't be the first to collapse...those terrible things!"How could you allow them around the school! "

"I'm sorry, Poppy," said Dumbledore gently, "but I need to ask Miss Barnes something now."

"She's not doing well at all!" Madam Pomfrey said in a low but reprimanding voice. "Her skin is cold and wet, and she's still scared! And you want her to be in this condition?" Remember what happened then! What else could have happened! The dementors wanted to get into the box she was in! And that group of horrible things affected Miss Barnes far more than the other children! I can't believe it wasn't her The sound of my pet's pet attracted other people, how should all this end!"

"But she has to remember." Snape's voice was low, hissing like a snake. "We have to know what happened on the train."

Madam Pomfrey was about to say something, but suddenly a hand grabbed her robe.

The silver-haired first-year girl's face was still so pale that no blood could be seen, but her eyes had returned to their usual radiance. She raised her head and tried to show a smile: "Thank you, Madam Pomfrey, I am much better now. It's all right." She turned to ask the white-haired old man beside her, "Professor Dumbledore, what do you want to know?"

Although her complexion was still not very good, Madam Pomfrey could tell from her steady and logical tone of voice and her slightly hoarse voice that the child had controlled herself.

She controlled her fear.

The queen of the medical wing hurriedly gave the girl a hug, said "I'll go to make the medicine" and went to the next compartment, which was filled with her commonly used medicines.

When Madam Pomfrey left, Dumbledore sat down by the bed, and behind the half-moon glasses, the azure eyes looked at the girl in front of him gently and apologetically: "Please allow me to apologize again, Alex, I Think I need you to recall everything that happened when you met the dementor."

Alex nodded: "Okay, professor." She swallowed, couldn't help but took a sip of hot chocolate, and then began to tell.

From the time she felt the cold and disconnected the communication with Harry, including the scene where she seemed to see herself surrounded by a group of octopus-like creatures, and a tadpole was put in her ear, Alex I couldn't help but shuddered, and my face quickly turned pale.

The fear of her brain being eaten away still remained deeply in her heart.

"Sorry, Miss Barnes, we're not here to listen to your imaginary stories." Professor Snape interrupted her, "I've never heard of dementors giving people hallucinations. "

Alex's face turned paler: "That's not an illusion!" Her voice became hoarse again unknowingly, "I won't fall into an illusion!"

She knew it was real!

Literally once a tadpole was put in her ear, and that tadpole traveled all the way down the ear canal to her brain and ate her brain off!

"I don't know where you got the confidence not to fall into hallucinations," the Potions professor hissed no louder than a snake's whisper, "after spending so much time with Potter, you've become as arrogant as him , Miss Barnes. Dementors only bring to mind the despair experienced, are you trying to say that you are still alive after being eaten out of your brain?"

How can a person live without a brain?

Alex opened his mouth to refute, but couldn't find any words to refute.

So... is it really an illusion?

She couldn't help thinking about this possibility.

By the way, at that time, I saw a man standing behind Black, and he used her wand to release a big dog...

But she was the only one in the box, and no one else was there.

So, like Professor Snape said, it was... hallucination?

"...Sorry, professor, maybe...the illusion is too real, I thought it was real." The silver-haired girl lowered her head and apologized.

Snape froze. For some reason, he seemed a little embarrassed, and even his tone of voice was a little turbulent: "It seems that you are still a little self-aware. Then, after getting rid of those boring hallucinations of Miss Barnes, you still What did you see?"

Alex shook his head. Since all he saw were illusions, there was nothing to say: "I passed out after that, and when I woke up, I found myself here."

Snape frowned immediately, the a little embarrassment just now disappeared without a trace, he said angrily: "This is impossible! Someone released the Patronus Charm! The dementors were forced back!"

Alex was stunned: "The Patronus Charm? Didn't Gabrielle put it on?"

She remembered what Cedric and Gabrielle had just said to her.

Speaking of which, what is the Patronus Charm about?She didn't see it when she looked at the dementor information, so she will ask when she returns to the common room.

"exist……"

"Well, Severus, my boy," Dumbledore interrupted Snape, "we've asked enough. I think Poppy will be really angry if we don't go. "

The Queen of the Medical Wing was glaring at them menacingly, holding a bottle of green smoking potion.

"You did a good job, Alex." Dumbledore patted the girl's head, "Your uncle will be proud of you. Not everyone has the courage to recall their most fearful moments."

The old man's words made the girl laugh: "Uncle Bucky has always been proud of me. And I don't think I lack courage. After all, the Sorting Hat once very much wanted to sort me into Gryffindor, and it thought it would suit me there."

"Oh?" Dumbledore knew this for the first time, and asked with surprise, "But you ended up going to Hufflepuff."

"Yes, I told it that I wanted to go to Hufflepuff, and the Sorting Hat seriously considered my request." The silver-haired girl smiled as she recalled those happy memories, and that smile lit up her face like a light, "Because I like Hufflepuff."

"Although everyone has a lot of misunderstandings about it, it is indeed a very good house." Dumbledore agreed, "Every house in Hogwarts is very good, including Slytherin."

"Okay, Alex, I think you have to sleep in the medical wing for a while before you can go back. I'll come and pick you up later." Dumbledore let Madam Pomfrey give Alex a sleep aid. Tranquilizer, "Now, good night."

As he spoke, he took a wand from his pocket and put it on Alex's bedside, and the girl recognized it as her oak wand.

It probably fell on the ground when he was fainted, and it was only now that the person cleaning the carriage found it and brought it here.

The professors withdrew, and the ward fell silent.

Lying on the bed, Alex subconsciously wanted to talk to Bucky, but when he touched his chest, he realized that her shell necklace was missing.

"Why don't you ask?"

Outside the medical wing, Snape said impatiently.

"I think Alex's spirit is not suitable for recalling what happened at that time." Dumbledore said softly, "She is a child with courage and a gentle heart. For our request, she will try her best to recall, But I can't do that."

"Huh? Isn't it to protect your favorite student?" Snape sneered, "Even if he betrayed his friend and killed your other two favorite students, and now escapes to kill Potter, you will Do you want to protect him like this?"

"I didn't, Severus." The old man said calmly, "I just wanted to protect the kid inside."

"I'm afraid that child doesn't need your protection!" Snape sneered.

The oak wand was picked up by Truman from the ground, and it was handed over to Professor McGonagall. When it was in the hands of Dumbledore, when they used the flashback spell on it, they found that it had released a god-calling guard, and this was definitely not the case. Possibly released by Alex.

According to the student who sent Alex here, there was a big black dog guarding Alex at that time, but after entering the school, the big black dog didn't know where it went.

They asked the students, saying that they were sent to Hagrid, but Hagrid only saw the big white dog, but did not see the so-called black dog. Hagrid also said that he only saw Agana.

Snape was 100% sure that the big black dog was Sirius Black!

But now, Dumbledore didn't even ask where the big black dog came from. Isn't this trying to cover up Sirius!

Snape left angrily, leaving Dumbledore alone outside the hospital wing.

The old man looked a little tired.
