Chapter 2765 Song of the Swan (13)

Pomona waited in front of a painting in the fourth-floor hallway.

The musician in the painting is playing a soft and romantic song, which makes her not feel bored waiting here.

"Knox!" Sirius yelled.

"Shh!" She sternly motioned him to silence.

"Oh, you're afraid of being caught skipping class?" James sneered.

She really has nothing to say.

A lot of people were sleeping in history class, and Professor Binns couldn't take rolls, so these two guys came out.

"Where's Remus and Peter?" Pomona asked.

"Remus is resting, Peter is..."

"Let's go." Sirius said impatiently.

"What are you taking me to see?" Pomona asked.

"Should we tell her?" James looked at Sirius.

"The haunted mirror on the fourth floor," Sirius said.

After another turn, they came to a full-length mirror with an ornate frame.

She looked at herself, Sirius, and James in the mirror, feeling unreal.

At this time, she noticed a dark shadow near the corner in the mirror, she turned her head quickly, but saw nothing.

"What did you see?" James asked.

"Nothing," Pomona said, looking at the mirror again.

It's really weird, and often shows images of other places, not what a normal mirror should do, so it's called a haunted mirror.

"Why not at night?" asked Pomona.

"We've been here at night," Sirius said proudly.

"You're going out at night without telling me?" Pomona asked.

"I don't want to hear the screaming," James said.

Pomona wanted to punch him twice.

"We found a small mechanism." Sirius said, and came to the back of the wall where the mirror hung. There was a bronze butterfly lamp on the wall.

"Luminescent flashes." Sirius pointed his wand at the butterfly, and after about a minute, the butterfly "lived" and waved its wings, leaving the lamp.

"Look," Sirius said, "it follows the light."

Sure enough, the butterfly fluttered around Sirius' wand, looking like a moth.

Sirius led the butterfly near the mirror, and it quickly lost interest in the wand and landed gently in the middle of the frame.

With a wave of magic, the mirror actually opened, revealing the space behind.

"Wow." Pomona couldn't help but exclaimed, "You guys are amazing."

"Go in now," said James, and walked in first.

"You stand guard at the door," Sirius said.

"Why?" Pomona asked unconvinced.

"If an accident happens, remember to save us." Sirius said with a smile, and followed James into the secret passage.

She waited bored at the door, and after about ten minutes, James poked his head out.

"bring it on."

Pomona then went in together.

It's a big space inside, although it's not as good as the Room of Requirement. There are a lot of old furniture in it, and it looks like a storage room that has been abandoned for a long time.

"That's it?" Pomona said disappointedly. She thought there was something special about this newly discovered secret passage.

"This place is different from what we saw at night." Sirius said, "The last time I was here was a study."

"What we see in the mirror is different." James said, "What is behind the mirror seems to correspond to the reflection of the mirror."

At that time, she just thought it was a strange mirror, and didn't think too much about it.

It was later learned that the mirror was related to a dark witch whose tomb was in the Forbidden Forest, where Pomona's favorite devil's net was found.

Georgiana turned the fire opal ring on her finger.

The magical animal corresponding to 6 in ancient runes is the salamander, and there is one on the seat of the King of Wands Tarot card, which bites its own tail like the ouroboros.

Severus has a fire salamander ring, which is shaped like the lizard on the King of Wands' chair, and that ring is said to have been given to him by the Dark Lord.

At that time, the Death Eaters planned to enter Hogwarts from the passage between the witch's cemetery and the mirror on the fourth floor, and assassinate the leader of the Order of the Phoenix, Albus Dumbledore. their actions.

In Sybil's prophecy, the person capable of defeating the Dark Lord came from a family that had resisted him three times. The prophecy only said "resistance", not victory. Although Sirius and James stopped the Death Eaters, they failed and the ring fell into their hands.

Severus used it to study blood, and used it to complete the life force exchange. That's good enough for immortality for some people, but not enough for Voldemort. He is a very independent person and does not depend on anyone or anything. When he learned that the Philosopher's Stone cannot be stopped once he drinks it, he lost interest in it and just wanted to use it to create a perfect body.

His pride would not allow him to suck the life force of those weaker than him, and if he had no other choice, he would not choose Wormtail's hand to provide the "flesh" necessary for the potion.

Georgiana let go of the ring and drew another card from the tarot deck, this one being the Queen of Swords.

The Kingdom of Swords is frontal, while the Queen of Swords is sideways, and instead of wearing a red cape, she is wearing blue sky and white clouds.

She sits on a stone throne decorated with angels and butterflies.

The 4 cards she drew were not major Akas, they were originally there as supplements to fate.

Then she drew three more cards, World, Judgment, and Inverted Justice.

There are many similarities between this card and the King of Swords, they are both men wearing a crown, the difference is that the background of the King of Swords is the blue sky and white clouds, and behind Justice is a red cloth, as if covering something, and Justice There is an extra balance in hand.

She put the seven cards together, then drew another card.

"Ma'am." Margaret said softly, "Go to sleep, you haven't slept for two days."

"In a moment," said Georgiana.

Then look to the eighth card.

This is a seven of pentacle, and a farmer is watching the plants he planted. The plants continue to grow and produce pentacle fruits. He was thinking about whether to take these star coins and continue to use them as seeds, or use them to invest in other things.

In other words, the farmer is very satisfied with his current life. His investment objects may be the king of scepters, the king of swords, the queen of swords, and justice, but there is no pope. The only thing related to religion is the angel who blows the trumpet of the doomsday.

Among these eight cards, only justice is upside down.

She looked at it and thought for a while, wrote down the card types, and put them into the pile.

It's time to sleep.
