"Heirlooms? What a creative idea, Kelly."

"Thank you, I'll just take you as a compliment." Kelly said without raising her head.

"I'm complimenting you." Bill shrugged, looking at the old long silver chain in Kelly's hand.The chain is in the style of a necklace, but it is extremely long. It needs to be wound three or four times to reach a suitable length. If the side clasp is untied, it is not a problem for the chain to go around the necks of three or four people at the same time when it is completely released. .

But in fact, it was a specially designed Portkey.Kelly and Bill spent more than a week perfecting the Portkey, which only activates when the user speaks certain words, and landed near the Xavier estate in the United States.Kelly intends to modify the memory of Magneto's father or mother, making them think that this necklace is a family heirloom, and when life is in danger, say a specific prayer, and it will protect the person who wears it.They may not believe this rumor on weekdays, but when it comes to a real crisis, people will use all means to find ways to escape.

"Please protect us from the torment of evil, to the land of freedom." She whispered the words in German, waved her wand, and a blue light flashed, and the spell was completed.Kelly tapped it lightly with her wand and smiled with satisfaction.

"Come on, let's go to Magneto's house." She turned to greet Bill.

"You lead the way, I don't remember the exact location of the Apparition." Bill said.

Kelly stuck out her tongue, gave him a sneering look, and let Bill put her shoulders.After a whirlwind, they stood in front of the previous house again, but this time they were not as lucky as last time. It was morning, and the sky was already bright, and a young girl a few meters away was staring dumbfounded These two people who suddenly appeared out of thin air.

"Forget everything!" Kelly quickly cast an Oblivion Curse on her, and the girl's expression quickly changed from panic to trance. She stood there for a moment, then continued walking in the original direction.This time it was Bill's turn to give her a mocking look, Kelly shrugged resentfully, and knocked on the door.

After a while, a middle-aged woman who looked very kind came to answer the door. She looked at Kelly suspiciously: "What can I do for you, miss?"

"Good morning, ma'am." Kelly greeted her in German with a smile, "Are you Mrs. Lanshere?"

The woman nodded suspiciously: "Yes."

At this time, Magneto should not have been born yet, so Kelly couldn't continue to ask about her children, but this verification is enough.Kelly smiled, and suddenly drew out her wand to point at the other party, and the woman's eyes suddenly became dazed.Kelly stuffed the silver chain into her hand, and she accepted it obediently.

"This is your family heirloom. It is said that this necklace has special magical powers. When life is in danger, pray to it. It can protect the person who wears or holds it at that time from disaster. You don't fully believe this legend, but you still keep it in mind , and cherish this necklace, and never show it to others easily." Kelly said, and the woman nodded obediently when she said something, "Its prayer mantra is 'Please protect us from the evil torment and go to the paradise of freedom'. Do you remember Are you staying?"

The woman nodded.Kelly took back her wand, cast a disillusionment spell on herself, and beckoned to Bill. The two of them hid aside under the disillusionment spell, using trees and houses to cover their figures, and quietly observed the woman. .She stood at the door for a while, as if she woke up suddenly, looked around suspiciously, but found no one.

"It's strange, why did you open the door but see no one..." She mused to herself, hanging the necklace around her neck with great care, stuffing it under her clothes, and then closed the door.Kelly gave Bill a high five, celebrating the victory.

"The next stop is to get the Rubik's Cube? Where is it, Tinsberg in Norway?"

"Hmm." Kelly nodded, and the two of them chose to start with the most peaceful mission, even though they both knew that the "hit list" was inevitable, and the more difficult it was to assassinate later on. , but Kelly and Bill may both be escaping - given the choice, they still inevitably postponed the task of assassinating the Nazi officer.

"Don't tell me you can even speak Norwegian," Bill said.

"I won't. I've tried my best to learn German like this." Kelly spread her hands. "Let's hope that all Norwegians can speak English."

The two posed as British tourists and took the train to Tunsberg.The town is not very big. After half an hour, Kelly found the small tower exactly like in the movie.

"Look there, the view from the top of the tower must be good." She pulled Bill, "Do you think they will allow us to go up and visit?"

"I don't know, we can try." Bill spread his hands, and the door of the tower was half-closed. He stepped forward and knocked on the door three times. After a while, an old man who looked very kind opened the door and said in Norwegian What did the language say.

"Sorry, sir, we are tourists. We saw that your tower is very high, and we want to go to the top to see the scenery." Kelly said in the most innocent voice she could pretend, looking up at the old man, "Is that okay? ?Please, we can pay you."

"You are very welcome, please feel free." The old man seemed to hesitate for a moment, but he quickly agreed in a bit blunt English, and opened the door for them with a smile, "Go this way, I will take you upstairs."

The inside of the tower is also the same as the set in the movie-quaint stone walls, tall tree-shaped candlesticks, with a somewhat gloomy atmosphere.There is a sarcophagus in the middle of the hall, and the mural of the World Tree is carved on the wall behind it.Kelly was careful not to let her eyes stay on the mural, but looked around with curious eyes.

"Do you live here?" she asked as she followed the old man up the stairs. "It looks really old here..."

"Yes, my family has guarded this...'s tomb for generations." The old man said a name in Norwegian. Kelly didn't fully understand it, and it seemed to be the meaning of a heroic knight.By this time they had reached the second floor, the light was much brighter, and the view from the window was indeed very beautiful.

"Since it's a knight, I thought the murals should all depict heroic battle scenes." Bill said casually, "Why is it a tree?"

Kelly seemed to feel a slight pause in the old man's footsteps.Fearing that he would become suspicious, she hurriedly said, "Maybe it was the mural that was there first, and then the sarcophagus was put in? That painting is very beautiful, it would be a pity to erase it and re-engrav it..."

"That's no ordinary tree." The old man said slowly, "It's the world tree in mythology."

"That's it..." Kelly nodded half-understanding, and then her eyes were attracted by the scenery outside the window, "Wow!"

"How beautiful." Bill lay down on the bed with her.

"It's so charming!" Kelly exclaimed.In clear sunlight, the summer landscape is as brightly colored as a Van Gogh painting.But she faintly felt that the old man's gaze was still lingering on the two of them.

"Look how rude I am," said the old man. "I haven't asked the name of the guest yet."

"Bill Weasley," Bill said, "this is my sister Kelly."

"You have to know, next time you call me your sister, the condition is that your surname is Cosmo." Kelly tapped herself with her wand and cast the illusion spell, whispering to Bill, "Or at least Meg."

"Oh no, let's forget about Mag." Bill whispered.

They walked quietly into the tower in the middle of the night.The effect of the disillusionment spell in the daytime can only be said to be unsatisfactory, but at night or in dimly lit scenes, it is almost no different from the invisibility spell. Even if Kelly and Bill are very close, they can only distinguish each other by the sound of their footsteps s position.Soon, the two arrived at the door of the tower. Kelly fumbled around and took Bill's arm to locate him.

"I'll go in, you meet me at the door." Kelly whispered, "Are you ready?"

Bill nodded, and Kelly raised her wand: "Call God to protect you!"

A silver-white antelope leaped from the tip of her staff.Muggles can't see the Patronuses, they can only vaguely feel their presence - that is, they can't see the light from the Patronus, so Kelly decided to use it as a light.Under the faint silver light, Bill unlocked the door with a wave of his wand, and added "Silently" to it. Kelly slowly pushed the door open a crack, and Bill slipped in sideways.

It wasn't completely dark inside, a few candles burning in a candlestick in the corner cast a dim light, but most of the space was shrouded in dark shadows.Kelly walked around the stone platform lightly, and crouched down in front of the mural of the World Tree.

At the bottom of the mural, intertwined tree roots and snakes are inextricably intertwined. When watching the movie, Kelly also wondered why the Red Skull could find the hiding place of the Rubik's Cube so accurately all of a sudden.But now her doubts have evaporated - at such a close distance, she can almost feel something calling her, feel its powerful magic, it is like a person who is recovering from drugs and suddenly smells drugs. , uncontrollably reaching out to grab it...

The patron saint of the antelope pushed her with its horns. Although there was no real touch, Kelly still shook violently, and the feeling of being possessed just now disappeared.In just a short moment, she was already covered in cold sweat—oh my god, is that the experience she felt in the movie before the Red Skull was melted by the Rubik's Cube?

She was extremely grateful at this time that she had summoned the Patronus.Kelly squatted on the spot, took a deep breath, looked at the snake head in front of her eyes, but didn't dare to reach out to press it—is this a one-time test, or will it affect people all the time like Voldemort's Horcrux?After the patron saint dissipated, could she still resist such a temptation?Of course, the Rubik's Cube cannot fall into the hands of the Nazis, but does she really have the qualifications to keep it?

But these struggles are just a matter of a moment.Kelly quickly made up her mind: no matter what, it can't stay here any longer!What will happen after taking it out is a matter for later, but now, she must take the Cosmic Rubik's Cube away.

Gritting her teeth, she pressed the snake's eyes hard, and the small hidden space popped out immediately.Kelly pulled it out slowly, not daring to open the lid, but took the whole box in her hand.She pulled out the small leather pouch on her chest, put the box in, and then took out a prepared letter paper from her pocket, and put it in the hole left by the dark compartment.

Standing up, she quickly walked back to the door, and soon, the two heavy doors closed again, and the chain behind it automatically hung back to its original position.
