The mother's portrait failed to give Helena an explanation. I don't know what horrible memories her words brought back to her mother. That night, the mother's portrait kept screaming and crying. Helena couldn't communicate with her normally, and finally had to He covered the portrait with a cloth to be quiet.

She left the room where the portrait was hung, and walked back to her own room with a candlestick in her hand.

After putting away the candlesticks, she sat on the edge of the bed, recalling her mother's behavior when she heard the surname Blake. After the uneasiness, there was deep doubt.

Is it possible that the Bird family and the Black family have some old feud?It shouldn't be, if there is, parents should have shown something when they were alive. In Helena's few childhood memories, her parents have the impression of disdain and disgust for certain families, but there is no Blake in it.

Mrs. Black also mentioned her father. She said that they had some friendship, and their expressions were casual when they spoke, not like lying or subtext.

Why did the mother react like that?

Or rather——because of whom?

Thinking too deeply about the question caused Helena a bit of a headache. She lay on the bed and hugged the pillow and thought, wait for her mother to calm down before asking, the puzzle will be solved eventually, won't it?

But what she didn't expect was that her mother's mood swings would last for so long. When she started school, she was still in the state of screaming as soon as the cloth was lifted. The Black family kept her away from Regulus, but they didn't say why.

Sitting on the Hogwarts Express, Helena lay on her stomach in distress.She likes Regulus, and they finally made progress and had a chance, but because of one or another reason, they came to a fork.

In fact, even without the strange reaction from her mother, Helena had to think deeply about whether she could still enter Black's house.

She should have known that as the oldest and most steadfast pure-blood family, the Black family must have some connection with that lord.

The current adult has not yet shown all his ideas, but only part of the vote, many people can't bear it, and many people are attracted.She has read the Daily Prophet a lot, and she has also seen the article of that adult. It is indeed very provocative, but she has not wavered.

She always believes that restoring the glory of pure blood does not need to be so extreme, and half-blood and hemp wizards also have the right to learn magic, as long as there is magic in their bodies, they should not be underestimated.Of course she is also a Slytherin, and because of her mother's education, she also thinks it is important to keep her blood pure, but she only uses it for herself, never for others.

In her opinion, everyone is an independent individual who can have his own thoughts and life, and no one should interfere with this, not even... the Dark Lord.

Yes, not even the Dark Lord.

Helena straightened up and looked out the car window. The road to Hogwarts is beautiful. This beauty should not be polluted by violence and extremes. The first generation of Dark Lords failed, and the second generation of Dark Lords probably won't either. What a good outcome, Dumbledore is still alive and well, he will not sit idly by.Once she really married Regulus and entered Black's house, she might be entangled in this contest between light and darkness in the future.

Helena is a shy person.

She is lazy a lot of the time.

Regarding the future of choosing Regulus' path, she was both timid and longing, and these two emotions were burning in her heart, making her unable to find a fixed point.

When the train arrived at the station, it started to drizzle. Helena found Maggie and Evelyn outside the box. The three of them wore school robes and walked towards the entrance of the compartment. This is the exclusive compartment for Slytherin. There is a high probability of meeting Regulus from time to time, so there is no need to be surprised when seeing him, but out of some unspeakable psychology, Helena avoids his eyes a little bit.

Maggie noticed this and whispered in her ear, "What's the matter, did you quarrel?"

Helena shook her head: "Let's talk about it at school."

Maggie couldn't ask any more questions, she turned her head and glanced at Regulus who was looking straight at this side, and left with her.

Evelyn touched her head and looked in Regulus' direction, feeling puzzled as she got off the train.

They went to the castle on a flying carriage that could not see the horses. This year they will enter the fourth grade, and Hogwarts will also welcome a group of freshmen.

When sorting, Helena noticed a boy with short blond hair and blue eyes, good looks and extraordinary temperament. He was undoubtedly sorted into Slytherin. His name seemed to be Gilderoy lockhart.

Helena took a few glances at him and then stopped, but Maggie stared at him for a long time, Evelyn couldn't help laughing at her: "Could it be that you want to eat young grass, Maggie? He's only in the first grade! "

Maggie blushed and looked back, "No, no, I just think he looks a bit like a member of the Malfoy family..."

Helena shook her head and said, "I don't think so. He looks like a strong nobility. The nobility of the Malfoy family comes from the blood. Besides, his blond hair is too dark. The Malfoy family It's pale blond hair."

Evelyn echoed, "Yes, he's still a long way from the Malfoy family. It's a pity to say that, I thought I could meet the Malfoy family at Hogwarts, who knows who will wait for me?" When I came to school, everyone had graduated.”

"Maybe you can stay and teach at the school, waiting for the next generation of Malfoy to enroll." Maggie teased her with a smile.

Evelyn also smiled and said, "That's unlikely. As far as my grades are concerned, I should not stay in school and mislead my children."

Helena didn't rejoin their conversation because she noticed Sirius Black staring at her across the Gryffindor table.

Helena frowned and looked back. The other party didn't hide her scrutiny at all, and even raised her eyebrows.

As the veritable school grass of Hogwarts, Sirius Black is very handsome with raised eyebrows, which has attracted the attention of many girls, especially Mary MacDonald who is sitting diagonally across from him.

Mary MacDonald caught Sirius Blake's look at Helena almost immediately, she frowned and looked at Helena, Helena found time to return her glance, she gritted her teeth angrily, as if she was about to eat Helena.

With such a suitor, Helena would start to feel pity for Regulus' brother.

In fact, she knew very well why Sirius Black was looking at her, and she received a message from his eyes.

He was watching a good show, a good show with her and Regulus.

Thinking of her relationship with Regulus, and their previous conflicts that couldn't be called conflicts, Helena felt a little irritable.

She didn't pay attention to the backyard, and returned to the common room after dinner. She didn't want to stay in this lively place for long, and she was going back to her dormitory soon, but before she left, Lei Gu was chatting in the common room. Les.

"They called off the engagement, did you hear?" It was Ceci Parkinson who was proudly promoting, "I said a long time ago that she couldn't get what she wanted, and now you know I'm right?" She provoked Mei Fei quickly cast a sideways glance at Rita Lestrange, "She's not suitable for Black at all, and Black doesn't like her either. If you try hard, you'll just be abandoned."

Helena glanced at Rita Lestrange. She didn't seem to be affected by the annulled engagement at all, and she didn't hide from Parkinson's cynicism, and even walked over on her own initiative.

"Are you talking about me?" Rita said with a smile, "I heard it. Since it's talking about me, how can I not participate?" She looked at Parkinson, "Are you happy that I broke off my engagement with Blake? Are you really happy?" Parkinson shouldn't be happy because if it wasn't me, it wouldn't be you."

Parkinson took a deep breath, and said after a while: "It's better not to be engaged to him than to be annulled. I don't envy Miss Lestrange's experience."

Rita smiled exaggeratedly and said, "Oh really? Then what are you doing? What did you do last semester? Aren't you jealous? Let me tell you, Parkinson, with your level, even I don’t even have the qualifications to get engaged to Black and cancel the engagement, so I really shouldn’t talk about it here.” She lazily said with her hands behind her back, “Even without Black, I still have many other choices, but what about you? With your honor And bad personality, I believe that if men have eyes to see, they will not choose you as a girlfriend."

Parkinson's face turned red when she said it, but all the boys with some family background around her were whispering about her, and some even directly echoed Lestrange and began to laugh at her.Unable to bear the blow, she drew out her wand to fight with Lestrange, Lestrange snorted disdainfully, she didn't even need to do it herself, there were boys rushing to stand in front of her.

Helena watched all this from the corner, and was about to leave when someone grabbed her hand.

It was Regulus who was at the center of the conversation. He held her hand and said, "It's dangerous here, let's go elsewhere."

They really should find a quiet place to talk. They haven't been in touch since they left Black's house last time. Whether it's good or bad, together or apart, they should have a result.

Helena didn't refuse, and left with him. The students were all focused on the struggle between Parkinson and Miss Lestrange, and didn't notice the two who left quietly.

At the beginning of school, the wind at Hogwarts has a different flavor from Bird Manor.

Helena took a deep breath and felt her whole body calm down.

After walking out of the castle, Regulus let go of Helena's hand, and he walked in front of her. She looked at his tall back and took the initiative to break the silence between the two.

"Reculus." She called him softly.

He turned around, looked at her and whispered, "Helena."

Helena took a few steps forward and faced him at close range. After thinking for a long time, she still mustered up the courage to say: "Do you really agree with that person's ideas? Do you really admire him? Can you... I That is to say, if it is possible, can you observe more and make a decision later? I am not asking you to immediately violate your family and your philosophy, I just hope that you can carefully consider whether he is really worthy of your following. "

Regulus waited quietly for her to finish speaking, and when she finished the last syllable, he stood in the breeze under the night and asked her unhurriedly: "What if the result after my consideration is still the same?"

Helena stood there without speaking, Regulus took a step forward, lowered his head, his eyes were level with hers, the tip of his nose was almost touching hers, the distance between them was so close that no distance could be seen.

He asked her again: "If that's the case, are you going to leave me?"
