[Comprehensive English and American] Ripples in time and space

"Have I really only been in St. Mungo's for three days?" Kelly asked. "I feel like half a month has passed outside."

When she woke up, she was already in St. Mungo's, and there was a mess outside, and Mrs. Weasley, who was so angry that he could knock over a lioness, insisted that she rest in peace, no matter how much Kelly asked. Tell her a little about the outside world, and also stop all the visiting people from telling her anything.She was treated the same as Emmeline Vance in the same ward, while Remus, Moody, Sirius and Harry lived in the next ward.

It wasn't until the third day that Kelly finally learned what happened outside from the mouths of Bill, Nymphadora and Mr. Tonks who came to visit: Barty Crouch Jr. used the Imperius Curse to control his father, Then he controlled many senior officials of the Ministry of Magic, and took the opportunity to quietly release all the Death Eaters in Azkaban.It was also in the process that they learned of Kelly's identity from Ministry librarians whom Dumbledore had sought support from.

Fortunately, none of these officials knew for sure that Dumbledore planned to set up an ambush in Little Hangleton.The only person who knew this was Moody, and he quickly found out that something was wrong. He quickly joined forces with Ms. Amelia Burns, who was almost killed, and quietly gathered those Aurors who could be trusted by the Ministry of Magic. Little Hangleton's ambush force.On the way Kelly and the others returned home by Hogwarts Express, a thrilling battle in the Ministry of Magic had quietly ended.

What made her relieved was that Dumbledore's deliberate arrangement for her own attack was indeed not arranged by Dumbledore, but that Voldemort just suspected that Voldemort might get news from the Ministry of Magic, so he sent Kingsley and Lupine to protect him, but Lupine Indeed, the distance between the two cars was deliberately kept apart so that the battle would not affect the children of the Weasley family in front.When she was knocked into the air that day, the Order of the Phoenix's rescue force just arrived, Bellatrix was killed on the spot, and Dolohov was captured.

"Harry is also safe. It is said that the mysterious man was resurrected with his blood, but he was killed by Dumbledore right after that—the snake was killed by Professor Snape, and Snape was actually eating it. Can you imagine being undercover with the Dead Apostles, Kelly!"

"Really?" Kelly's eyes widened and she looked surprised, but she still couldn't let go of her heart: Harry would be safe if he survived. What happened to the piece of soul stored on him? up?Although she knew that Dumbledore wouldn't just let him live in St. Mungo's if there was a problem with the soul film, she still couldn't help worrying.However, it was obviously impossible for Bill and the Tonks family to tell her this question, so she could only bear it.

"But Principal Dumbledore still didn't tell us why the Death Eaters attacked us." Tonks said sullenly lying on the bedside.

"Attack me." Kelly corrected her, "I meant it at the time, I didn't mean to trick you into hiding."

"It doesn't make sense anymore. Why did Voldemort attack you?" Tonks asked puzzled, "You're not, what, Harry's illegitimate sister or something. What does he want you to do?"

"Didn't Dumbledore explain it to you?" Kelly asked, "I thought now... no, forget it, it's nothing."

She suddenly realized that Dumbledore's failure to tell them did not mean that he felt that Kelly still needed some protection, but that he wanted to leave the decision to her.Kelly couldn't help feeling warm in her heart, and she smiled: "This matter is quite complicated... Otherwise, I will tell you when I go back to school, or at least when I am discharged from the hospital. I don't want to tell such a long story. Repeat it many times."

Bill gave Mrs. Weasley who was standing beside him a serious look: "This is definitely revenge."

Even Mrs. Weasley couldn't help laughing.Kelly blinked and tilted her head: "Whatever you say."

Hit by two spells in a row, especially the last one, cast by Dolokhov in anger, hit Kelly so powerfully that she had to stay in St. Mungo's for 20 days - which meant that after the Christmas holidays It will be at least two weeks before she returns to school.Her Christmas presents and the visiting gifts from everyone piled up on the bedside, and Kelly didn't have much energy yet, so she took a break to unpack two of them, and it took a whole day to unpack them.Most of the gifts were books. Sirius sent a small leather pouch that could be hung around his neck with a long silver chain. The contents inside could only be taken out by the owner himself. The donkey skin bag used as an adult gift is the same style.She decided to look into whether she could add a space expansion spell and a permanent feather charm to the bag later, so she could use the bag to hold all kinds of things that needed to be taken to the next world.Hathaway gave her a headband adorned with champagne roses.Joanna gave away a big bag of Chocolate Frogs and Bibi's Flavored Beans.And what Fred and George sent was a box of pocket fireworks. After pulling out the bottom pin, the normal pocket fireworks would jump up to the height just over the top of the head, exploding small palm-sized fireworks, while their improved version would The face of the person who pulled the bolt was covered in black ashes.The first person to test their effects was unfortunately Patsy, who then hunted down the twins for three full floors.

The Tonks had come to express their thanks at least three times, making Kelly's face burn each time; Remus had come once to offer his apology, even though Kelly didn't feel the need to apologize at all.What surprised her the most was that Professor McGonagall and Elph Stone also came, which meant that they failed to go on their honeymoon in the end. Kelly secretly guessed that McGonagall might have participated in the ambush of Voldemort.This made her very regretful—she knew that Elphine Stone had been chasing McGonagall for almost half her life, and she really hoped that they could have a good honeymoon.

As for Dumbledore, he hadn't shown up, and Kelly could imagine how busy he was—Voldemort was completely down, Aurors were still chasing fleeing Death Eaters, half the Ministry of Magic was down and needed to be rebuilt.It wasn't until the end of the Christmas holiday that he finally showed up at the door of the ward.

"Principal!" Kelly quickly threw away the textbook in her hand and sat up straight, her tone unconsciously carried a bit of complaint: "I'm still wondering when you will have time to come over—"

"Sorry, Kelly," said Dumbledore softly, walking to the edge of her bed and sitting down, staring at her with his deep blue eyes, "I think I owe you an apology for putting you in danger." territory--"

"Professor, I'm really not—no—only—fourteen—" Kelly drew out, trying to crack a joke.

Dumbledore shook his head: "Putting a child like you and Harry in the spotlight of the enemy is not something to be praised in any way." He said, something in his tone made Kelly understand that she There is no way to argue anymore, "Of course, I didn't come to St. Mungo's these days not because I didn't value you - I have to check Voldemort's wand first, Harry's condition, and a series of complicated magic tests, Only then can I come to inform you of this result with certainty:”

Not only was Kelly leaning forward a little, she realized that maybe Harry wasn't at St. Mungo's at all, but she'd been waiting so long for that word that she didn't have time to care about it now.In her expectant eyes, Dumbledore smiled and said, "It's over."

"Yeah!" Kelly raised her hands above her head, cheered, and flattened her back on the pillow, she let out a long breath: "Finally!"

"Yeah, at last," sighed Dumbledore beside her, "thanks to you we've saved a lot of sacrifice and loss—"

"No, I didn't actually do anything—" Kelly blushed, and quickly got up from the pillow again, "You are the one who really contributed, I just gave you a memory at the beginning, and then I kept hiding In school--"

"This has already demonstrated your extraordinary courage and wisdom. Not everyone has such wisdom to share the knowledge they have." Dumbledore said calmly, "Of course, I also want to thank you for your kindness to me." trust, even if you read everything in it, including..."

He paused for a moment, but Kelly immediately understood what he was referring to.

"Actually, I only respect you more after reading the seventh part." She said carefully, scratching her brain, revisiting the conversation between Harry and Dumbledore in the book again and again, thinking desperately what to say What, "I agree with Harry too - that's the part, you're so much better than Fudge, no one really thinks less of you, because you've been a great guy - everything you've done, is far superior over any mistakes you think you've made—”

She licked her lips nervously, and Dumbledore smiled sadly.

"Thank you, Kelly," he said calmly, and Kelly sighed dejectedly, knowing that she couldn't convince him, "Then, I won't bother you anymore, I guess Mrs Weasley will rush in at any moment and hold the apple Send me out of the ward."

he left.Kelly watched his tall and thin back disappear through the door, exhaled a long breath, fell back, and flattened herself on the pillow again.

"It's all over." She said sleepwalking, staring at the ceiling, "It's all over..."

Finally, she exhaled a long breath and smiled relaxedly.
