Chapter 696: Bedtime story (sincerely thank the leader gentleman for self-defense)

When Owen finally gave away the Goodlov family, in the middle of the night, the entire Harris mansion fell into silence. Allen, who had been asleep in bed for a while, crawled out of his bed with his eyes rubbed, and he was at dinner tonight Drink too much alcohol before going to bed.

Later, in the corridor where he lost some weight and returned to the bedroom, Alan saw her daughter Helena fluttering in the dark room. Alan's hands were tight. After all, the ghost is not a living creature, is it? You ca n’t really sleep if you need it. In such a quiet night, she wanders in the room like this, it should be very lonely.

Ai Xian took care of his pajamas and trousers to make her seem less sloppy and lazy, and then whispered to her daughter, "Helena."

"Father?" Helena turned and floated over.

The portrait that Allen retrieved at the entrance of Hogwarts ’kitchen appeared in his hand. Allen looked at Helena and said softly:" This is a portrait of Helga Hufflepuff. Do n’t hang in your room? So you can spend time with Helga at night when you are bored. "

Alan was about to let the scroll unfold, and she heard Helena say: "Father, it's too late, don't disturb her." Helena floated forward two steps, her hand flicked over the scroll: "Still hang on Kitchen, she likes to watch people cook and make friends with grandma, do n’t worry about your father, I am just familiar with the house. "

"Then let me take you back to the room first. You can get familiar with it during the day. You do n’t have to hide your status deliberately. You want to wear it casually through the wall. There are not so many rules in our house. The state inside ... "At this time, Alan extended her arms to her daughter's words, and Helena floated over, squinting her father, and then returned to her own room.

Helena was led by Ellen to the door of her room. Her bedroom was next to Ellen's bedroom. Above the brown-red wood door. A house number is nailed, and the name of Helena is written in English on the door, and there are some decorative pictures of flowers, birds and birds. Helena stretched out her long and transparent fingers, touching the name on her house number like a living person. Her fingers followed the strokes of the letters to rewrite the entire name again. You know that even if she is the ghost of Ravenclaw College, but she does not have her own room, she can only live in the sculpture of her mother.

Alan didn't turn around and left immediately. He walked into his daughter's new room and dragged a chair beside the bed. He patted the bed: "Helena, try lying down? I'll give it to you Tell me about the "Story of Poems and Peas". "

"Father, my life is older than you ... I've passed the age of listening to bedtime stories long ago." Although Helena said that, she still lay flat on the bed.

"We won't talk about age in the future ... Your grandfather treated me like this when I was a kid, so let's satisfy my father's wishes." Allen ignored the daughter's complaint and told the story directly: "A beloved wizard, He used his magic to help his neighbors, and made a cure in this magic pot. It was a round pot ... "

Alan ’s voice had a quiet and gentle power in such a late night. Helena lay on her bed, holding her head in her hands like this, and blinkingly watching her father talk about wizarding children for herself. Only to listen to fairy tales. These stories Helena had seen the junior students read many times, but at this moment, they gave her a different meaning.

After saying goodbye to her father, Helena floated to her bed as if she were alive, letting herself float on the bed, she could not feel how the bed felt, but from the thickness and the color, Helena guessed that it must be very soft and comfortable.

The ghost has no tears, she stared at the gauze curtain gently floating with the summer night breeze blowing from the window-I have n’t seen my father since I was born, and my mother ’s attitude towards herself was not as good as it is now. Many times she heard others say that she was an unexpected child, and how smart and wise and great her mother was. For this reason, when she was still alive, she longed to be smarter than her mother, Royna Ravenclaw. , More prestigious, stole the crown of Ravenclaw's symbolic wisdom and hid it in a hollow tree in the Albanian forest-but only a few years ago learned from the mother's mouth that it was all planned by the mother The purpose is to keep your soul from getting lost in the underworld ...

But even knowing that her mother ’s and father ’s plans were also to protect herself, but in addition to the fact that Hurga Hufflepuff had taken care of herself, she never felt lonely—the others showed her Good wizards are either forced by their mother's prestige and hope to please her with her, or they spy on her eyebrows and identity.

Today, this grand welcome scene, seeing their unabashed expectations and joy on their faces, made her feel at this time for a feeling that she had not had for many years. She leaned her head and tried to recall from memory, But she couldn't find any words to describe this feeling. She couldn't judge her feelings at the moment. No matter what, from today, she will have a place, and this is her home.

More than nine o'clock the next day, the sky was still dark, and compared with the dark clouds outside and the sky dark, the Harris family's living room was brightly lit. After washing, the whole person was refreshing and Allen walked slowly. Go downstairs.

Just now, Allen received a letter from the Ministry of Magic sending an owl. The position of the silent man with Luna has been approved, requiring him to perform his duties in the Ministry of Magic within a few days. Therefore, early in the morning, Allen and Luna After contacting, he was dressed and ready to leave, but the laughter from the kitchen attracted his attention.

In the kitchen, Helena is introducing Hurga in the Hufflepuff portrait of Allen hanging on the wall last night. The Hurga and Morgan Le Fay who finally came out of the tavern are obviously very Speculation, Morgan Le Fay is very interested in making food, especially desserts.

Helga was obviously very satisfied with her family's attitude towards Helena and being placed in the kitchen. When her eyes met Allen, she nodded sympathetically to Allen. Allen smiled and nodded when he saw such a situation, and turned away and moved away.

When Allen's figure approached the main hall of the Ministry of Magic and got rid of those members and visitors who greeted him actively, it was found that Luna and Lenn, who were dressed in a strange way, had already arrived at the row of golden gates at the end of the hall. The twenty-plus elevators talked next to each other. This was the meeting place they had agreed.

After meeting, they walked to the crowd in front of a lift. A middle-aged female teacher with red hair and golden curls smiled at Ron, but she didn't dare to greet her. From time to time, I couldn't help looking at Luna.

Because it is not necessary to wear a uniform at school, Luna with a bold and fancy forehead headband today wore a loose and loose cotton patterned blue bottom skirt with random patterns, layered large homemade necklaces and attached The chains of the rings and bracelets slanted diagonally. The sandals composed of several hemp ropes of different colors and bundled together with full leather soles made her look completely different from the inauguration of the Ministry of Magic but like a field trip. In general, the colorful she is in stark contrast to the wizards all around in formal attire.

"How are you doing recently, Mrs. Ackmore? How is your daughter's face?" Renn greeted her on her own initiative.

"Secretary Harris has bothered you, my daughter's face is okay." The witch looks a little flattered: "Although I supervise the flyway network, please rest assured, I will urge my colleagues to speed up the procedures for the transformation of the magic car as soon as possible. of."

With a jingle of clank, a lift descended in front of them, the golden fence door was gently opened, and no one of the wizards entered, until Renn took Alan and Luna. They walked into the elevator together, and then they walked in. It ’s not just Mrs. Ackmore, the wizards in the elevator tacitly approached the elevator wall, leaving the central space to Renn—the Ministry of Magic has seven divisions, each of which is in charge of an aspect of the magic world. The Enforcement Department of Magic Law in the jurisdiction of Renn is the largest of all the major departments. Except for the Department of Mystery Affairs, all other major departments are more or less related to it, so Renn is actually their top supervisor.

Ron took Alan and Luna to his own office, and in his drawer, he took out two small notebooks with brown leather covers. This book can be folded into three layers. On the left is the information of the holder, with photos of Alan and Luna; in the middle is the seal of the Ministry of Magic; on the right is the department and responsibility they are responsible for. .

Allen's eyes were fixed on the seal representing the Ministry of Magic in the middle. This is a light gold seal that radiates light like the sun. It consists of two circles. The middle of the large circle inside the seal is magic. (Magic) The initial letter M, M has a magic wand in the middle of the V character. At the top of the wand, inside the two sharp corners of M, like the wings of an angel, it emits a starburst, and the small circle outside surrounds it. The text "Mnistry of Magic".

"The Department of Mystery is the most special existence in the Ministry of Magic. It is an independent department located on the ninth floor of the Ministry of Magic. It is a department that conducts secret research on specific puzzles. Most of the business is completely confidential to ordinary wizards. There are very few wizards in the Ministry of Magic who really know what it is like. People who work in the Department of Mystery are called silent people because their work has the highest level of confidentiality and concealment. They rarely talk about work, even if it is The same is true of the former staff. After the Voldemort incident, we have removed all the monitoring equipment in the Department of Mystery. I think that although my father has the right to know in theory, I do n’t necessarily understand it except knowing the records of the storage and storage of the prophecy. What are they doing. "Renn also brought his own documents," I will take you here, Alan, Luna, I am honored to be a colleague with you. "

Allen collected the documents: "The main business of this department seems to be more like what Muggle scientists do ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ It reveals the sources and rules that govern the operation of magic."

"But they can't learn, because they haven't seen the Nether Scroll." Luna put the documents in her raven purse.

Hearing a few chats, the two children uttered what seemed to be a big secret. Ron coughed a few times, wanted to remind his brother and Ravenclaw that they should pay attention to the privacy of their conversation, and then took the initiative to divert the topic: "Arthur Weasley was actually an illegal operation of the Order of the Phoenix when they were attacked. They took turns to go to the Department of Mystery Affairs to guard the prophecy ball, but because of the plan we did not hinder them, it was not easy to pursue the Order of the Phoenix afterwards. In the end, the secret department was punished with some explicit punishment for mismanagement. The remaining silent man, Sol? Crocker, was not an official. He was a little sensitive about it, although not Said there was emotion, but then acted too carefully ... "

Alan was frustrated that her second brother had a serious expression that he did not hear after he coughed: "Len, I certainly know that you can hear my conversation with Luna here, and I will tell when I fully understand myself. You guys, do n’t be so boring for my apprentice Merlin. You are my brother and I am a brother. What are you avoiding? Even Daisy and Emily have never liked you because of this, let alone other girls ... "
