[Comprehensive HP colleagues] That year

The protagonist of our chapter is a woman named Heather Mercia. In 1927, she was born in a combined Muggle and witch family, but her parents died early, and she was sent to an orphanage when she was five years old.She has a gift: her touch, which can soothe the pain of any wound.Because of this, she has always been very popular in the orphanage.At the age of eight, she was adopted by a combined family of Muggles and witches. At the age of 11, she entered Hogwarts to study.

Not every era will have a peerless figure, but Heather can be regarded as one.She is beautiful, good at studying, versatile, humble and easy-going, so even though she was assigned to Hufflepuff, which has never been noticed, she quickly attracted everyone's attention, and she couldn't keep a low profile if she wanted to.In the whole school, the only one who can overshadow her is probably that heaven-defying classmate Tom Riddle.

At that time, there was even a saying in the campus: After Tom, there is no male god; after Heather, there is no goddess.

Many people speculated that the god and goddess who came out of the same orphanage would eventually be together, but at the end of the fourth grade, the goddess fell in love with the unremarkable Alphard Black.

"Olive, why do you always tease Mert?" Heather said dissatisfied.Olive was the daughter of her adoptive mother's sister, sort of her cousin.

"She's so stupid, I really don't know how she was assigned to Ravenclaw for being so stupid, dragging us down all day long, I really hate seeing her dangling in front of us." Olive said curled his lips and said.

"I know you don't like her, but you shouldn't say that about her either. You know, sometimes words can hurt more than knives. Mert was already a little inferior because he wasn't very attractive in appearance, and you always That said, she has no confidence."

"It doesn't matter to me whether she has self-confidence?" Olive was still very disdainful, "I said, Heather, you are such a bad person, and you are the only one who comforts her in the whole school, and as a result, she will not give up every chance she gets. haunting you."

Heather shook her head helplessly. She tried countless times, but she still couldn't convince her cousin to be nice to Mert Warren.

Sending Olive back to Ravenclaw, Heather wanted to go back to her Hufflepuff bedroom, but she was a little worried, so she abducted to the girls' bathroom on the second floor.

It was there that she met Mert for the first time and encouraged her. After getting along a lot, she also knew that this Ravenclaw school girl who is two years younger than herself likes to cry there when she encounters setbacks .

"Mert, are you there? I am..." The following words were stuck in Heather's throat.She was horrified to see Mert lying by the sink, eyes wide open, and a boy standing beside him—the acclaimed Slytherin prefect, Tom Riddle.She saw a gap in the pool at this time, a giant snake was drilling in, and then the pool closed with a bang.

Heather tried to scream, but immediately found she couldn't.Riddle was staring at her at the moment, his former handsomeness and elegance were gone, his eyes were blood red, and his face was ferocious like a devil.

Heather didn't like Riddle since she was a child, but at that time even she couldn't explain why, she only knew that every time she got closer to Riddle, she would feel cold for no reason.When she was a child, strange stories about Riddle were spread everywhere in the orphanage, and she was as afraid of him as all children.Later, when she was eight years old, she was adopted by her current parents. When she met Riddle, she was already at Hogwarts.

Riddle changed, became personable, became good at dancing, and became very popular with teachers and students.But maybe because she had a deep impression of him when she was a child, she was always wary of him.This person, but less than ten years old, can hang rabbits to death, and even drive Amy and Dennis crazy.She still remembered that he wanted to take her to explore that cave together during the outing that year.

But no one cared if Riddle had a shady past.Heather was not a talkative person either, a secret she never told anyone, not even her boyfriend.

But now she regrets it.

He has never changed, he is still as scary as when he was a child, no, he is scarier now than when he was a child!

Riddle's ferocity only lasted for a short time, and he immediately returned to normal.When he regained his composure, he began to say in a voice full of seduction: "Oh, Mercia, it is a pity that you have discovered my secret, a secret that will kill me, and you say, what should I do to you?" manage?"

Heather couldn't speak at the moment because of the spell, she turned her head to look at Mert, and then at Riddle, sweating all over her head, but forced herself to be calm.

Seeing this, Riddle laughed out loud: "As expected of a person named a goddess by everyone. Ordinary people, seeing this kind of battle, will not be as calm as you are now. You guessed right, I killed Wo Ren, because she saw things she shouldn't see. But Mercia, you also saw things you shouldn't see, but I don't want to kill you. Although you and I have a similar life experience, and your wisdom and ability really make me I appreciate it. Join me, become my subordinate, and follow me to do great things."

Heather didn't know what Riddle wanted her to do with him, but she instinctively resisted.This person is the same age as her, but he can say killing so easily, as if killing is just a game to him.But now, she is under the control of others, she must pretend to agree and escape first.

Heather thought she was pretending to be very similar, but she forgot that there was a kind of magic in this world called Legilimency. She suddenly felt a tingling in her brain, and then a green light flashed in front of her eyes.

As the last thought before she died, she really wanted to see Alphard again.

The next day, Olive's terrified screams were heard in the bathroom.

On June 1943, 6, the school hospital

"Thank goodness, Heather, you're finally awake." Alphard said excitedly, standing up from the chair beside the bed.

The beautiful girl on the bed opened her eyes, but the clarity and warmth in her eyes was gone, instead full of doubts.

"Heather? Who is Heather? Who are you?"

Alphard froze.

Diagon Alley, 1943 July 7

Today is a good day for Zhou Xiaoyu, because Abraxas Malfoy confessed his love to her today.

Zhou Xiaoyu is the person in Heather's body now, with a 13-year-old soul.

Zhou Xiaoyu was actually very dissatisfied when he just crossed over.Although it was her dream to travel to the world of Harry Potter, who would tell her why the ugly boy who was asking her how to be by her side and claiming to be his boyfriend turned out to be Alphard Black, who later died because A family traitor who was expelled from the family for funding Sirius Black's ungrateful stupid dog? ! ! !and!and!This Heather turned out to be a Hufflepuff and a half-breed, which really made Zhou Xiaoyu, who was looking forward to being a noble lady in the world of Harry Potter, very embarrassed.

Fortunately, although her background was not strong, Heather left her a good skin. Zhou Xiaoyu decided to use this good skin to change her own destiny.

A plan to change his own destiny: get close to Abraxas Malfoy, make him fall in love with himself, and marry himself.

This idea didn't come out of thin air. Zhou Xiaoyu's favorite character was Draco Malfoy when watching movies in the 21st century. She often fantasized about having a romantic relationship with her dear platinum dragon.It's a pity that he was born at an untimely time, and traveled to Draco's grandpa's generation.If you can't marry Draco, then the next best thing is to marry Draco's grandfather.In this way, he can be regarded as a member of the Malfoy family.

Zhou Xiaoyu felt that God, oh no, it was Mei Lin who was helping him too.On the first vacation she traveled here, she and Abu ran into each other in Diagon Alley, and a little trick made Abu fall in love with her easily.

In this way, she and Abu talked about love, completely leaving the real Heather's boyfriend behind.You said she was on two boats?No, of course not, that was Heather's boyfriend, not her Zhou Xiaoyu's boyfriend.She, Zhou Xiaoyu, has a much better vision than Heather, okay?

1943. 12, 26

On this day, Zhou Xiaoyu and Abu ended their sweet date for another day, but just after they separated from Abu, they were pulled into a sparsely populated alley by a figure. Just as Zhou Xiaoyu was about to scream, she suddenly found out that the person was Alphard.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Xiaoyu said dissatisfied.

"I should ask you this sentence, what were you doing with Malfoy just now?!" Alphard said angrily.

Zhou Xiaoyu's eyelids twitched, but she calmed down quickly. She said bluntly: "Since you have seen it all, I will not hide it from you. You also know that I have lost part of my memory, which includes the memory of you. I don’t love you anymore, I love Abraxas Malfoy now, and Abu loves me too. I hope you don’t tear us apart.”

Alphard looked at the girl in front of him seriously, and said word by word: "Heather, I hope you think clearly, there are some things that have been decided, and there is no turning back."

"I think very clearly, I hope you can fulfill me and Abu."

Alphard closed his eyes, thinking over and over again the sweet time with Heather this year, and Heather's strange gaze after waking up from that coma.

Then he opened his eyes and said, "Okay, Heather, since there is no love, it's fine to break up. It's just a relationship after all, I still want to remind you that almost everyone knows Malfoy's fickleness, I don't want You were hurt by him."

"I know that he used to be a bit of a prodigal, but that's because he didn't meet anyone who really attracted him. People say that a prodigal son will not change money when he returns. I believe that from now on, he will only love me in his whole life."

lifetime?Alphard didn't know what to say.If it was Heather in the past, he believed that she really had the ability to tie Malfoy with her own charm, but now she...

Alphard is really worried about Heather's future.

【Ten years later】

On December 1953, 12, Alphard met a poor and pregnant woman in front of his apartment.

1954 April 4, Muggle Hospital

"Ma'am, it's a boy, and he looks very pretty." The nurse handed the newborn baby to the mother.

Zhou Xiaoyu gently stroked the little baby, murmuring tears.

"Why are you crying? A pregnant woman can't cry." Alphard said in a panic when he saw this.

"I... I was just wondering if this child, in this life, will have a chance to meet his biological father."

"So far, you still love him?" Alphard asked carefully.

"Love? He left me here and left me to fend for myself. If you hadn't been taking care of me, I might have died a long time ago. What right does he have for me to love? He doesn't deserve it, he doesn't deserve it!" Zhou Xiaoyu cried out excitedly , Alphard panicked even more, hurriedly hugged her, and patted her on the back to comfort her.

It took Zhou Xiaoyu a long time to calm down.

If you don't love him anymore, why are you willing to have your child with him.Alphard thought so in his heart.

1954. 4, 30

"Malfoy, that's my child, you can't take him away!"

"Alfard actually hid you here, making it hard for me to find you. I am the father of the child, why can't I take him away?"

"From my pregnancy to the birth of the child, you never took care of our mother and child for a day, but now you want a child again? Why?"

"Why? Just because I can give this child a noble background and a richer life. And he will always be an illegitimate child if he follows you." Abraxas looked down at Zhou Xiaoyu, as if he was watching a dying child. Flobber armyworm.

"Bastard child? Bastard child? You know he is an illegitimate child. You already have a wife, and your wife even gave birth to a son for you just now! Do you want to tell me that your wife treats my child like a child?" My own? I don't believe it, Abraxas Malfoy, I don't believe a word of what you're saying now!"

"Believe it or not, it doesn't mean anything to me." Then, he raised his wand, cast a Cruciatus Curse on Zhou Xiaoyu, and then walked away with the child in his arms.

1954. 12, 31

"Heather, it's time to take your medicine." Alphard handed a bottle of potion to Zhou Xiaoyu's hand.

Zhou Xiaoyu took the medicine, but didn't drink it. She looked out the window and muttered: "The days go by so fast, and it will be the New Year in a blink of an eye, and I have survived for so long."

"Yeah, after this winter, everything will be fine. I think your complexion is much better today."

"Yeah, back to the light. I made myself so miserable that I ended up with Merope, well, a little bit better than her, at least in the end, I still have you by my side."

"Heath..." Alphard sighed, honestly, he couldn't understand what Zhou Xiaoyu was saying.

"Alphad, I'm sorry, in this life, I'm most sorry for you. It's me who made you lose your lover. I'm not Heather, I'm just a foreign soul. After Heather died, I took her Body. My original name was Zhou Xiaoyu."

Alphard was stunned, the words of the woman in front of him were so unbelievable, but Alphard was saying in his heart, so it was so.

"That year, I had just become Heather, and I was still thinking, she was really not good at picking a boyfriend, but the reality is really ironic. The man I picked by myself abandoned me, but you always Be by my side. I know, you have been waiting, not for me, but for the original Heather. I should have told you the truth, but I am too selfish, I do not want to be alone, I am afraid, I am really I'm afraid, if you find out that I'm not Heather, you will turn around and leave, then I will really be alone."

Alphard's tears flowed out, and that was the first time in his life's memory that he shed tears.

It turned out that his Heather was already dead.

1955. 1, 2

Alphard stood in front of the white tombstone and presented a bouquet of yellow hyacinths, Heather's favorite flower.

"Heather, I'm sorry, it's been more than ten years, and you've been gone for more than ten years before I erected this tombstone for you." Alphard sat by the tombstone and murmured, "But I know, because of you You won't blame me for your temper."

"Deep in my heart, I never thought of her as you."

"I've been waiting for you to come back, but I finally know that you can't come back."

"I also set up a tombstone for her. She also had a hard life. Now that she is dead, I can't blame her anymore."

"I went to see your family. Your adoptive father passed away six years ago, and your adoptive mother... Ever since Malfoy abandoned Zhou Xiaoyu, she has no face to face your mother again."

"I told your adoptive mother that I was your husband, and you died in an accident. At that time, because of the Black family, I was afraid to disclose our relationship. You didn't want to force me at that time, but now that you think about it, It's really a pity. I will never have the chance to be with you again."

"I will take good care of your adoptive mother and take care of her as my mother."

"I will also come to see you often, I hope you don't think I'm long-winded."
