Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 1998 Calm Charlotte
Lu Ping and the others are discussing it would be more appropriate to discuss this matter with whom to ask.Regardless of who they would ask in the end, they still believed that there was always a reason why Mrs. Maxim concealed it.
Yes, until now, they will no longer easily doubt anyone who was once trusted.After all, disasters are now and disasters are rampant, and trust has become a very extravagant thing that everyone should cherish.
It's just that... often behind the white lies, there may be more cruel facts hidden.To be honest, there is a ripple of anxiety in everyone's hearts right now.
Yes, even Aberforth, who still looks careless, is actually the same-didn't you stop seeing his hand rubbing the goblet?
However, only Charlotte is still the same as usual.
"Sirius, do you want another drink?"
She saw her go to the table holding the wine bottle and motioned to Sirius.But now everyone is troubled by Maxim's letter, so naturally they are not in the mood to continue drinking.
"No, no more."
Sirius shook his head at her, and then discussed with Lupin and the others.Then, he subconsciously glanced at the back of Charlotte returning to the long table at the bar.
Yes, at this time, the more calm people are, the more problems they have.In fact, everyone in this room has already noticed Charlotte's "problem"-she didn't just become like this tonight.
The destruction of the Werther family still dealt a big blow to Charlotte after all.Although she didn't like that home since she was a child, but aside from others, at least she has always loved her father deeply.
However, everything was gone, no matter what they liked or disliked, almost all the family members became victims of this huge disaster.
In this case, Sirius and Lupin wanted to keep Charlotte from the truth, and Maca also thought that maybe they should do it... At least, before the disaster ended, it seemed that they didn’t tell her the truth. necessary.
However, the two remaining children of the Witt family were among their asylum seekers, and were looked after by Lupin-where can they go in this world?And this community is only a little bit of a place, Charlotte also lives here, sooner or later you will find out.
When she learned from the child that it was her father who saved the two with his own life, and even sent them out at the end of the day when he became a living corpse... To be honest, even she herself didn't know how to bear it Live without collapse.
But since then, Charlotte has changed.
She, who used to laugh, no longer smiled.She became quiet and indifferent, as if nothing could affect her heart.
However, maybe it was because of the two children, the two remaining family members, she didn't completely sink down.Even if she just pretended to be calm and natural, as if nothing happened, she didn't want her child to see her desperate.
But this may already be the limit that Charlotte can do.
"Has something bad happened on the frontline?"
When Sirius and Lupin were hesitant to Maxim's letter, the thought only flashed through Charlotte's head, and then she instinctively ignored the past.
There is enough misfortune in this world, and she doesn't want to feel any more sadness.If she thinks more about it, she is afraid that she will really be unable to hold it.
"Aberforth, I'm going back first-I have to get up early tomorrow to wash the clothes for the two children. They don't know where they are going these days. The mud all over is really a headache."
With such a casual remark, Charlotte put down the rag in his hand, shook his hand and walked to the back door.She now lives with her two children, near Aberforth, walking closer through the back door.
"Ok?"
Aberforth had another meal, and after looking at her, he nodded.
"Um... rest early."
To be honest, it is quite strange that Aberforth, who has always been indifferent, would say this.However, Charlotte obviously didn't care much, and wasted his rare concern.
Not long after, Charlotte walked step by step on the stone road outside the back door under the moonlight, and then gently opened a door not far away with a "click".
At this point in time, both children naturally fell asleep long ago, so they had to lighten their hands and feet.
Charlotte didn't light the light either. After closing the door, he slowly went up the stairs to the second floor, pushed the door on the right hand side and stood at the door and glanced at it.Seeing the two children asleep under the blanket, she also returned to her room.
Since I live here, everyone does not use magic spells as much as possible, and everything must be done by themselves.For them who are not used to Muggle life, they are still very tired.In addition, Charlotte, who has never even been married, has to take care of her two children. Recently, her life is imaginable.
Unfortunately, even though she was exhausted physically and mentally, she still couldn't sleep well at night.The death of her father, the collapse of the family, and even the inability to deal with disasters, as long as she lay down, everything began to circle in her mind.
This situation may be shared by everyone living in this community, but she is believed to be the most serious.
After lying down for a while, realizing that she might still be unable to sleep on her own tonight, Charlotte got up again after all, opened the drawer of the bedside table, and took out a bottle of potion.
However, after uncorking the bottle, she looked at the medicine in a daze.
Yes, occasionally...just occasionally, Charlotte also thinks of Maca.I haven't seen him for a while. I don't know how many powerful enemies he has defeated and how many innocent lives have been saved.
However, the disaster is still going on, listening to the content of the weekly secret letter seems to be getting worse.
"Grumbling."
You can't think too much about bad things, and you will only let despair drown everything.Charlotte took a sip of sleeping pills, then corked the bottle and put it in the drawer, and then lay down on the bed.
The night is getting deeper, and the worms outside the window are one after another, but it highlights its quietness.
The effect of the potion is reliable...Under the action of the sleeping pills, Charlotte gradually sinks into a dream.Even though the nightmares were repeated, this night, anyway, passed by again.
In the early morning of the next day, Charlotte heard something when she was washing clothes at the door-Sirius left the community and went to Boothbarton to find the truth.
After listening, she just lowered her head and responded softly.
"Oh, is that so?"
