Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

"Two." Hermione noticed that Zoe's chest was more up and down because of Mrs. Pomfrey's words. She held Zoe's hand. Hermione had been in the castle almost all the time, even though the weather was not very hot. But she was still surprised to feel that the hand she was holding was so cold and not warm at all.

"Three." The eyelashes trembled. After Madam Pomfrey counted the third number, Zoe also opened her eyes miraculously. She still looked a little confused, and looked at the ceiling with blurred eyes. Hermione was very happy with her. I can move, because Zoe's hand is curling unconsciously in the palm of his hand, as if trying to hold something.

"Let her rest for a while, and let her drink the medicine after she can sit up." After Madam Pomfrey said, she walked over to Cedric and handed him another large glass. Medicament.Cedric was already sitting up, leaning on the pillow, comforting his mother softly, Mr. Amos sat on the bedside, patted Cedric's shoulder gently, and Qiu held his hand. Some can't hold back the tears in his eyes.

Hermione had countless questions that she wanted to ask. She wanted to ask where Zoe had gone these days, why she disappeared without a word, who was the one who kidnapped her to leave Hogwarts, and why she and Cedric One of the scars appeared, what happened to them... But she looked into Zoe's dim eyes and couldn't ask a single question.

"...Just come back." I was worried.Zoe slowly moved his hand away from Hermione's palm, pulled the hair covering her cheeks away, the wet touch on the back of his hand, but there was a sense of warmth that could burn nerves for no reason."Hermione... are you crying?" Thinking of it later, she must have been silly in her head at the time to ask this kind of mentally retarded question.

Hermione glared at her, looking like she was going to get angry, but she couldn't do anything because of the wounded person in front of her."Cough cough, cough cough cough cough cough cough!" This series of deliberate coughs frightened the two people who were immersed in each other's eyes. Zoe turned his head abruptly (and "hissed" because of too much action. Cried out), Draco seemed to be planning to combine facial expressions, voice tone, and body language to jointly express the theme of "I am particularly angry now", and he looked at her coldly with his arms folded.

"Hello, Zoe." But the girl next to him obviously didn't intend to cooperate with his intention to exert pressure. Just looking at Zoe, she waved at her with a relieved, shallow smile, regardless of virtue. Racola glared at her with a long face.Zoe noticed that she didn't wear anything. Usually Luna would spend at least half an hour putting on those messy decorations, but now she doesn't have a single accessory.

"What are you doing, Lovegood! I'm going to teach her why you always do bad things about me!" Draco pushed her, gritted his teeth.Luna rolled her eyes and turned her head to be a boy. It was a cloud of air. Not only did she not intend to restrain, she jumped off the chair and ran to the other side of Zoe’s bed to help Hermione help Zoe sit up. .

"Where's Potter?" She took the cup Hermione handed her and looked around. She saw Cedric, but why was Cedric alone?Hearing her words, several people's faces suddenly changed.Hermione didn't know that Harry was among the wounded. She had only cared about Zoe's situation before, and she had forgotten her intention to ask Dumbledore about the original situation.

And Dumbledore, who had been standing in the corner since just now, smiling as he watched Zoe interact with his friends, his face became unnatural."Who took Harry away?" He asked, and began to think about it.Draco hesitated and replied.

"Uh, I think I saw it, Professor Dumbledore... it's Professor Alastor Moody."

Chapter 106 Return (Part 2)

Dumbledore left in a hurry. He happened to meet Snape when he was out. He and Snape exchanged a few words briefly, and Snape followed him, ready to go to Moody with him. .Before leaving, Zoe and Snape met. He looked at Zoe for a while, as if checking something, pursed his lips, and left without looking back.

"Professor Dumbledore, what happened to them?" Hermione asked strangely."I think this is because our Professor Moody is not really him. He is a Death Eater spy, Voldemort's spy." Zoe said in a cold tone.

"Wh, what?!" Several people were taken aback by the news, and even the people beside Cedric's bed were attracted by the movement and looked at them curiously."So you were robbed because you heard about this?" Hermione thought of this immediately and asked, holding her shoulder.

Zoe moved the corners of his mouth, isn't it that way."But how did they approach you? They took you directly from Hogwarts! Did you see the attacker's face? We can tell the Ministry of Magic and let them arrest him." Min asked eagerly, but Zoe couldn't explain to her, of course I knew who it was, because she lived in my body.

Finally she shook her head."Leave it alone, I'm not going to forgive you yet, Zoe." Draco took the opportunity to interrupt their conversation, raising an eyebrow unhappily."Do you remember what I said when I confessed to me before?" He glanced at Luna, then at Hermione, "I said I didn't want to be the last person who knew your condition! But follow me What I observed just now, I am afraid I am the last one to know about your missing."

Luna patted her forehead: "Oh, I forgot to explain to you, it's none of Zoe's business." Draco looked at her unbearably."Then I need a reason for not telling me about it!" Luna shrugged."Because you are always unkind to me and don't respect me and my father. I don't like you, so I didn't expect to explain it to you." She said so naturally and rationally that Draco choked. For a moment, it was a bit pitiful at a loss.

Zoe took a lot of patience to prevent herself from laughing, and Hermione could feel her shaking from her smile.After she drank the medicine, the dizziness dissipated for the most part, and she didn't feel nauseous anymore, but her limbs were somewhat weak, and the soreness of the muscles after overuse was uncomfortable.

"I think it's time to spend some time working out." She told Hermione in a low voice, "If I had to lie on the infirmary bed so many times a year due to various events, it would be a bad feeling. Exactly."

"Then I can supervise you." Hermione said."Then why don't you come with me? As long as it's not flying in the sky, we can all try it." Zoe shook her hand."Why do you want to fly except in the sky? Although I remember you really don't like Quidditch, and you don't like riding broomsticks very much..." Hermione asked her curiously.

"The ground makes me feel safe, doesn’t it? I don’t have a fear of heights. If I don’t have a choice, I can ride a broomstick, but flying in the sky always makes me feel sick and uncomfortable, especially when flying at high speed, so I go over. The impression of Quidditch is also terrible. It was the first time I came into contact with the children’s broomstick with Draco when I was a child, and in the end I threw him up and dragged him off the broom and almost injured...but this one Don’t make him think about it. Every time he gets angry and talks about it for a long time because of this incident, I have obviously apologized countless times."

Zoe looked at Draco who was taunting Luna (also more angry because Luna was distracted from time to time or ignored), "I want to move down and help me?" Hermione is willing to help her. She stood up and approached her, and as soon as she stretched out her arms, she was hugged by Zoe, which was obviously not a hug for Hermione to help her move her seat.

"I'm here." Hermione patted her awkwardly on the back and held her tighter. She knew Zoe was upset."...You know what, Hermione. I'm only a short step away, and I will get a new stain, and I can only watch it happen weakly, just a little bit, it won't be like this, I Nor can I go back to you, sit on the soft bed and talk to you."

If Max really kills Cedric with her hand, her life will sink in the deepest darkness.To put it cruelly, Cedric's value is far less than the horseman, at least in the eyes of most humans, the horseman is just a beast with some wisdom.The crime of killing Cedric cannot be forgiven, and she must be held responsible for it.

Not to mention what kind of predicament Harry will face if she can’t take control of the body. Maybe they will all die in that desolate cemetery, just like Max’s joking, built to welcome Voldemort’s new life. Feast of death.And it is impossible for her to return to Hogwarts, to the people she valued, her hands will be stained with blood again, and her future may only be a lonely escape.

"Just a little bit, I can't come back." Lying in Hermione's arms is very reassuring. It's not that she can bring much sense of security, but it can make Zoe completely relax, just listening to the other person. A slightly faster rhythm and rhythmic heartbeat can throw away all the messy thoughts out of the sky, and stop thinking about the distorted developments that make her mood worse. Even if she shows weakness, it doesn’t matter, what is she Don't worry, Hermione will tolerate her for a while.

Hermione's arms around Zoe tightened slightly. She couldn't imagine where and what kind of danger Zoe had faced before, but she just hated the powerlessness she couldn't share with her.Only two or three days away, Hermione already felt the tingling of the heart burning and the emotions of Liushen Wuzhu. If Zoe did not return safely this time, if she went to a place farther away from her...

"Then I'll go find you." She let go of Zoe and let her look at herself, "Even if you disappear to a far away place out of reach, I will find you until I bring you back again." Hermione's eyes lit up, and Zoe knew she was saying this seriously."If I take the initiative to throw your hand away, and don't want to come back?" But I can't help but want to ask this question deliberately.

"Will you reject me, if I want you to come back." Hermione said deliberately, and Zoe curled up her mouth."Why not? No one knows about the future..." Hermione chuckled when she saw her acting nonchalantly."Then should I sign a few oaths first? It just so happens that you still owe me something." Zoe looked at her in confusion, not understanding what she meant.

But when Hermione's fingers touched her side face and her body slowly sank towards her, surprise mixed with incredible chaos hit Zoe's heart, it was impossible for her to see what was about to happen.She grasped Hermione's sleeves and closed her eyes with a slight tremor. When the two soft, cautious auras touched her in the same position a moment later, the shallow contact was like a meteorite hitting the earth. Zoe couldn't help but shudder because of the violent reaction from the time.

I'm afraid it can't be called a kiss, it's more like a peck or a touch, but it seems very serious.It is no longer a special treatment in a special situation, they are all sober and not dangerous.Zoe couldn't find any excuses to pay for this sudden closeness, and even if Hermione had told her her feelings in words, there was nothing more exciting than Hermione's initiative to do so.

Both parties may be immersed in their own happy little world, but this is not so interesting for residents of different worlds in the same place.Draco had to turn his back to pretend that nothing happened. When his attention was taken away from the annoying Lovegood (presumably Luna felt the same way), he turned his head and bumped. Into the sticky atmosphere where Zoe and Hermione were no one else.

"Hey, don't look." Draco tugged at Luna helplessly."Huh? It's okay, I'm covering my eyes." Luna was justified.The corners of Draco's mouth twitched. If covering his face with a palm separated by fingers is considered to be "covering the eyes," is there anything in this world that can be more summarized as self-deception than this?

"What are they thinking? There are other people here!" Fortunately, Cedric hadn't paid much attention to this side. Cedric was probably recalling what happened before with those people. I could see the complexions of several people around him constantly changing, sometimes tight, sometimes relaxed, ups and downs.If it's not because Draco is more nervous than them, you can appreciate their funny expression changes.

The most painful thing for him is not just the anxiety that Zoe’s secret is about to be revealed. Luna also exclaims from her mouth from time to time. Irregularly, it makes him more emotional. Get confused.And Luna completely ignored his strong condemnation eyes, and sighed with emotion.

It didn't take long, but both felt that time had passed by at least a hundred years."How do you feel?" Hermione murmured, not daring to look at Zoe's face."...Very good." The latter didn't know what to say, or didn't need to say anything?Zoe fanned the wind with his hand, as if this would cool the hot face faster.

"I'm fine too...then let's, cough, I mean..." Hermione whispered awkwardly.The atmosphere was so strange that Zoe interrupted her quickly."I understand, I understand..." If someone can pause time now, she can slip away from here.

Chapter 107 Arrest (Part 1)

"We hope to have a few words with this young lady... If her physical condition allows us to do this, we promise not to take up too much time." The Diggorys walked over from Cedric and she whispered softly. Ask Draco and Luna, because the two of them are almost blocked on their way forward like gates.

"...It's okay, Draco. Please let them come." Zoe said quickly. She was a little nervous, even though she could see that the Diggorys weren't here for condemnation or questioning, she almost killed them. The facts of her son will not change because of this. Just looking at the faces of these two people makes her feel uncomfortable. There is always something heavy pressing on her.

Mr. Diggory's face is not very good, he is a man with no city, and there is always emotions and sorrows on his face.Mrs. Diggory was gentle. She smiled at Zoe and asked caringly."Miss Siegel, your face is blushing. Please don't worry about us if it's because of an injury, or can we help call Madam Pomfrey?"

"No, it's okay, Mrs. Diggory. I just have a fever. I sweated a little after drinking a big cup of hot potion. The weather has been pretty good recently. It's almost summer... Please sit down. Right." Hermione put aside her face and did not look at Zoe's silly smile, and neither of the two tacit insiders tried to expose this reluctant lie.

"The more you are at this time, the more you must be careful not to catch a cold. Even if it is just a few doses of medicine, it will always feel uncomfortable to be sick or injured..." Mrs. Diggory was still chatting, but his husband looked a little impatient. Lived, moved uncomfortably on the chair."Okay, okay, let's stop here for the polite remarks, and we should let them rest after we finish talking."

Mrs. Diggory patted her husband helplessly on the shoulder: "Sorry, my husband has such a temper..." Zoe shook his head, his expression a little stiff."It's okay. Do you have anything you want to ask me, such as what happened tonight?"

Mr. Diggory shook his head: "No. We can't keep asking these horrible things, and Seid has told and told us what happened before..." He finished his sentence. But there was silence again.Zoe noticed his body trembling with fear.

"To be honest, we can't believe what happened to you... Said said that he was a bit confused because of the torture (Mr. Diggory sniffed loudly), and he didn't remember some details clearly... But, You really met the dark wizard, didn't you?" Madame Diggory tried not to let herself cry again, she held Mr. Diggory's hand.

"Yes, and... it's the scariest one of them." Zoe whispered, "Digory is very brave. If he hadn't saved Potter, maybe the situation would not be so optimistic, we might have some Loss..." She stopped and didn't continue. In this kind of time when all the staff were surviving, just uttering the future that would almost appear was like a happy dream about to shatter, and it would not be for the family members. What comfort.

"I've always been proud of him...Sed, he just smiled and told me,'Thanks to the dagger you gave me, Dad'... But in fact, I can only sit in the audience, not knowing he is in danger. , Can't do anything for him, even his son is attacked by the Unforgivable Curse and his life hangs by a thread..." Mr. Diggory lowered his head in pain, and Mrs. Diggory hugged him so that he could rest his head on him. Arms.

"He almost died! He died in the wilderness that no one of us can see, and maybe even the corpse... Can't find the corpse, that's my only child... I have no hope if I lose him Yes." Mr. Diggory shouted, and even Cedric on the other side looked up because of the voice.With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Diggory looked at Zoe, "So we want to thank you."

The word was so weird that Zoe couldn't respond at once, and made a weird noise from his mouth, looking at Mrs. Diggory who said it in shock."I think the two of you might have misunderstood...I haven't done anything. He survived only because of his own efforts..."

"Please don't be modest, Miss Siegel, Seid has already told us everything." Mr. Diggory's voice sounded hoarse, with a sniffing voice. "He told us that he was being caught by a very dangerous black man. When the wizard was chasing, and even cut off the possibility of escape, and probably died there, it was your presence that helped him, and it was you who defeated the dark wizard so that he could survive."

Cedric must be a seldom liar, so what he said can be fully accepted by others.What he told was not a lie, but Cedric deliberately omitted a fact in his narration: the dangerous dark wizard who was chasing him was Zoe Siegel, and Zoe was not a hero. But the prisoner himself.

Regardless of whether the body was controlled by the Imperius Curse or not, whether the person who did it was Max or Zoe, once learned of these neglected details, she knew that this almost completed tragedy had her share of credit, Di The Goreys would certainly not be so gentle to her, nor could they appreciate her...

"Please don't say that, I am not qualified to accept your gratitude... Rather, I may be the culprit who put him in a dangerous situation, or that I did everything for myself, not to save his life... …" Zoe just tried to break free from the hands that Mrs. Diggory held her before, but was stopped.

"But it turned out that you saved Said, you helped him, thank you." Mr. Diggory said sincerely, "For this alone, you are already our benefactor."

Mrs. Diggory also looked at her tenderly: "We can't imagine the scene at the time, and we don't know what happened. You must also be faced with a critical choice, just like Said...We are not here. People can’t condemn you for this. Thank you for saving Seid and not giving up on him. He is still weak, but he will be able to recover his health slowly, and we can still sit together and talk, which is also your contribution. ."

Zoe leaned back uncomfortably, before squeezing out a long time later: "The one who brought him back is Potter..."

"So we will also thank him... Amos, you should also apologize to the boy." Mrs. Diggory pushed her husband, and Mr. Diggory briefly showed embarrassment, but sighed greatly. Sighed."Well, I admit that I'm a bit too competitive...but Seid is definitely better than Porter! He defeated Porter on Quidditch, and won the trophy..."

"My dear, they got it'jointly'. Both of them are champions." Mrs. Diggory's tone became more serious. Mr. Diggory choked, stopped talking, and lowered his head and started playing with his own. robe.
