Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 1283
For Maca, this night may become extremely long.Because when almost everyone...including Helbo is moving forward step by step with the passage of time, all he has to do is turn back.
Because, since the effect of the stone ball has been tested, it seems that some things that have been forced to delay should also be done.
"……father?"
At the moment when Maca's figure disappeared in place with the rotation of a small hourglass, Delphi in St Mungo's ward suddenly opened his closed eyes, as if he had sensed something." Teng" stood up.
"Fee...Miss Fisher?"
Although due to certain inconveniences, Delphi did not disclose his true identity after all, but the surname "Fisher" is still known to everyone.
Otherwise, people just want to call her and don't know what to call her.
At this moment, hearing the movement of Delphi getting up from the chair, Hermione, who had not fallen asleep again since Maca left, couldn't help but call her softly.
"What happened?"
Through the starlight between the curtains, Hermione looked at Delphi in the corner over there, seemingly confused.
When Delphi heard the words, she realized that she seemed to stand up, but when she saw that she was also a little at a loss, she shook her head gently.
"No," she lowered her voice slightly so as not to disturb other sleeping people, "It's okay...just had a nightmare."
"Um..." Hermione habitually shook Luna's cold little hand on the edge of the bed, and then she stood up and said, "Miss Fisher, since it was a nightmare, I think you can't sleep, right? Why don't we go for a walk and say a few words?"
"Uh, that's not necessary... right?"
Delphic was answering this slightly hesitantly, only to find that Hermione by the bed didn't seem to listen to her answer at all, and she was already going to the door before she could finish.
After Hermione silently opened the door and stood in the light from the corridor outside, she silently turned her head and glanced at Delphi's side.
Looking at the look, it was obvious that Delphi was to follow in her footsteps.
Although she didn't know why Hermione, who had been guarding the hospital bed all this time, suddenly wanted to talk to herself, let alone what the other party was going to say, but Delphi, who was ignored and rejected by the other party, followed along.
Not long after, the two left Luna's ward one after another, walking slowly in the quiet corridor at night to the bathroom on the other end.
However, it was obviously Hermione who invited her, but she did not speak for a long time.When Delphi saw this, she naturally didn't say much, and she wouldn't take the initiative to say something.
As a result, the two of them passed through the long corridor in a strange silence and came to the ladies' bathroom at the end of the corridor.
Compared with Hogwarts, which has maintained the style of an ancient castle for many years, St Mungo's bathroom is actually closer to the Muggle decoration concept.
The clean white sink, clean non-slip floor tiles, and the entire surface of the large mirror make the not-small bathroom look quite spacious and transparent.And Saint Mungo is a hospital, even the Magic Hospital pays attention to hygiene, there is not even the slightest smell in this bathroom.
It must be said that this is actually a good place for conversation...except that it always feels a little cold.
Standing by the sink for a while, Delphi looked at Hermione, who was looking into the mirror, and then whispered after closing the door with a backhand wave:
"H... Miss Granger, may I ask, what did you want to say when you called me out?"
To be honest, Delphi actually doesn't want to say anything, because there are not many things that are hidden in her heart.
But on the other side, Hermione, who was looking at her through the mirror, finally spoke.
"Miss Fisher," Hermione said, "Why don't you just call me by name as you used to? You, I and Luna, haven't we become good friends long ago?"
It would be okay if you didn't mention Luna, but when she heard Hermione say the name "Luna", Delphi's heart suddenly shook slightly.
Fortunately, she was good at disguising and didn't show any unnatural expressions on the surface.
"Sorry...Hermione," Delphi said slowly after a pause, "because I think you are serious, so I subconsciously take it seriously."
"Really?" Hermione nodded. "Well... Indeed, what I want to ask is a very serious question, and it may make you feel embarrassed."
As she was talking, she suddenly shook her head again.
"But I still want to know—who are you? What does it have to do with Maca?"
"I can't say this," Delphi said immediately, "I know, including my sudden appearance, and the fact that I have been with him for such a long time, it makes you feel very confused. Even, if not for him from time to time It implies that you don't need to care about my existence, and you still can't help but wonder if I am under Helbo."
"But for this alone, I think I can tell you plainly," she said, looking at Hermione sincerely, "I'm just an ordinary person who wants to give him some help."
In fact, in terms of magical power alone, Delphi certainly cannot be called an "ordinary person".
But she herself always felt that she was just an ordinary person... Well, maybe she would be better than most people in combat, but that was all.
Hermione seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the answers when she said this, but in the end she didn't bother with Delphi's identity and origin.
After all, this is what Maca personally said that there is no need to go into it. Even if she didn't believe in this "windcoat wizard" like Luna from the beginning, she always believed Maca's words.
After a short pause, Hermione suddenly turned to say:
"Then... why don't you follow Maca now? You know that it should be the most dangerous and critical period. If my ability is not too low, even if I go out, it can only be a burden, I must be early Then he went out to fight against Helbo's men."
Delphi's strength can now be said to be obvious to all, so in Hermione's view, her greatest role should have been the strength that ordinary people cannot possess.
But for Delphi, his strength can only be said to be average.
In fact, in the era of chaos that belonged to her, she had already seen many wizards who were stronger than her.Among them, in addition to those anti-Halpo forces who have risen up in troubled times, there are of course people who are regarded as relatives or friends by her like Maca.
If you want to survive in such a chaotic world, who can't have any real skills?
However, facing Hermione's doubts, Delphi couldn't reveal the truth just like that.After some consideration, she explained quietly:
"Hermione... I have already done everything I should do. Believe it or not, we won't be able to help Maca next."
This was undoubtedly a rather empty explanation, and no matter how sincere Delphi was, Hermione was obviously unacceptable.
She didn't know who this "Fisher" windbreaker witch was, let alone what the other party was here for.At first, she said she wanted to help Maca, but now she said she couldn't help him. This contradictory statement made Hermione more confused.
What is it for this Miss Fisher to be so inexplicable?
Even now, even if Maca endorsed it intentionally or unintentionally, Hermione's inner hesitation continued to accumulate.If it hadn't been for her decision to stop arbitrarily interfering with Maca's actions, perhaps she would have been unable to resist some impulses in her heart.
After a while, Hermione sighed:
"Before Maca left, I also put a blanket on you...On this basis, I can trust you. But... Trust belongs to trust. It is only for your people... But for what you say, I I don't believe it."
Having said that, she paused slightly, and then said:
"So, I just hope you can tell me something frankly—"
Delphi listened, and couldn't help pursing his lips:
"Just ask! But there are some things I can't say...this is for his safety."
Hermione remembered Delphi's words in her ears, but she didn't express any personal thoughts about it.Even after Delphi finished speaking, she continued as if she hadn't heard:
"I think you and Maca must have known each other a long time ago? Then can you tell me something about his past?"
"If you think something is important and you can't tell me, then pick some useless ones...I just hope you don't lie to me."
