Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

"Even if it is an unbreakable vow, the loophole is not difficult to exploit." Dumbledore said, "it can restrain words and deeds, but it cannot restrain the soul."

"I will let the Aurors in and take them away so that these Muggles can go home safely." Dumbledore tightened the blanket in his arms. "This child is a little malnourished. She is too light. What is her name? ?"

"Zoe." Max seemed to be thinking about something, and answered casually.From time to time, she looked out of the window, and through the gaps in the curtains, she could see people in black cloaks walking around anxiously.

"It's a good name." Dumbledore carefully touched the baby's thin hair with his fingertips.

"You are better at holding a child than I am. When I held her for the first time, she didn't show up like that. It was a troublesome spirit."

"I have younger siblings, and I didn't grow you so many years in vain." Dumbledore looked at her, "Get out of here, Max, you have no choice."

"I hate being determined by others." Max said arrogantly. "My life is a joke, but I can let it only come out of my mouth. I decide the end of this joke myself."

"Think about Zoe. She is your child, don't you want to witness her growth?" Dumbledore looked at her sadly.

"I will meet with her in the near future, if I succeed. Don't worry about it."

"You will destroy her, and she will destroy you. There cannot be two complete souls in one body!"

"She hates me. Isn't that great?" Max chuckled. "I hate father too. Maybe this is the right way between us."

"Professor, you'd better be prepared. Tom is a very annoying man. He doesn't like to stay lonely in hell. Why don't you learn about black magic? I know that there is a book that is good for getting started..." "Black Magic Decryption"."

"Thank you for your help over the years, Professor-this may not be the last time I call that."

The hand with which she raised the wand penetrated something invisible, which was also a hand, someone else's hand who wanted to subconsciously hold her arm."If you fail to keep your promise, you can go alone the next way. You can do better than everyone else, because you are my child." She said in a voice that only she could hear.

"Professor, I like this magic wand. Please destroy it. This is my thing."

"Avada So." From the magic wand pointed at her, an amazing green light burst out.Even the whole world seemed to be swallowed.

************

It was like waking up from a deep dream, and as soon as she opened her eyes, a familiar scene appeared in front of her. Since she entered school, she has visited here almost every year.He moved his body tentatively, except that his head responded and rubbed against the pillow. The nerves of his limbs seemed to be severed, and he was as heavy as a boulder.

The bed on which she slept in a coma was obviously moved deliberately and was placed in a dark place away from direct sunlight.The chest seemed to be pressed by a heavy object, but the light and shallow breathing felt difficult.The throat is very dry and the sound cannot come out smoothly.

Zoe also wanted to observe her surroundings more, but there was a sudden burst of pain in her brain, as if someone had tried to cut her bones, and the pain was completely affected by the brain.She only felt that there were layers of shadows in the world in her eyes, and from time to time there would be dazzling green light, or someone whispered in her ear, man, old house, grass, boy, cat, two professors, Voldemort, Sin, death, death, death, death, death.

She wanted to vomit and scream, but her throat was very dry, only her breathing gradually became rapid. She tried her best to stay awake, even if she fainted more easily.

"Zoe?" As soon as the footsteps stopped, there was the sound of glass falling to the ground, and the man's voice trembled, "Madam Pomfrey! Madam Pomfrey! She is awake, my God!"

Zoe could feel her hand being held tightly. She moved the corners of her mouth at the surprised and happy Hermione, and forced a small smile, hoping she would be at ease, but after she did so, she noticed Hermione's mood became low, and Madam Pomfrey came here soon.

"She's shaking!" She heard Hermione yell to Madam Pomfrey, "Please help her!"

Zoe has no spare energy to pay attention to Madam Pomfrey's inspection, and the parts she can manipulate have increased.She also shook Hermione's hand in response, and even she herself was surprised. When she saw Hermione's face, so many and so many thoughts that had been haunting her were so calm.The pain in her head still didn't stop, but she was not afraid anymore.

After Madam Pomfrey's diagnosis was completed, she prescribed a particularly bitter medicine. Just smelling the smell of mixed herbs, Zoe just wanted to lock his mouth and nose, but Hermione was better than Arajou Opening the hole was much more effective, and she couldn't refuse Hermione to come up with the cup, and finally drank it crying.

Madam Pomfrey’s medicinal effects have always been immediate, and after her limbs warmed up, she could finally drive her tired body.Although she is still weak, she can speak.

"You have been in a coma for almost a week." Hermione is carefully wiping her sweat. The moist handkerchief feels very comfortable on the skin. Although it is not as effective as the cleansing spell, it can relax people.

"At the time you fainted in the audience of the ball game. I was so anxious that I didn't know what was going on. Even Madam Pomfrey was helpless..." Hermione's voice was low, "Later Professor Barbara came over. , I asked her what was going on, but she refused to tell me, just made me wait."

Zoe sighed, knowing that Hermione would definitely ask her.She raised her hand to hold Hermione's handkerchief and pressed it to her face.She knew that Hermione must be upset this time.

"Give me a few minutes, okay?" She looked into the other person's eyes sincerely, and Hermione hesitated and nodded.

"I wanted to hide this until I couldn't hide it." As soon as Zoe finished speaking, Hermione rolled her eyes.She really planned it this way, but she didn't expect the change to come by surprise. Now even if she wanted to hide it, let alone others, Hermione would never be fooled by a perfunctory answer.

"I told myself that even if you all know this, it won't help me, it will only make you uneasy and painful."

"Are you stupid!" Hermione shouted angrily, "You will not be able to bear so many things by yourself, at least we can give you ideas and share the burden for you!"

"Yeah, I did something stupid... Actually thinking about it now, I'm just afraid, afraid that you will leave after you know it, afraid that you will look at me with strange eyes. People who have been thinking wildly and can't believe you, It's me." Zoe said, "not only that, but also hurt Luna under the excuses of'for your good' and'this is my privacy', just because I dare not take this step."

"Remember the charge that caused me to be imprisoned in Azkaban?" Hermione nodded when she heard that, she couldn't forget.

"I did it, not because I was robbed of my soul, but because there was already another soul besides me in my body, and that person—" Zoe looked at her, "It's mine. mother."

"Don't rush to ask questions, Hermione, wait for me to finish first." Zoe calmed Hermione who stood up suddenly, "It's okay, everything is over, things like this won't happen again."

"My mother... when I was born... No, it should be said that I was born to serve that purpose. She wanted to prove some dark magic theory, so she used me as a prop."

"I didn't know it, but in fact, she had interfered in my life long ago." Zoe's lips trembled. It is precisely because he always likes to accumulate things in the bottom of his heart that he can't adapt to the truth.

"I never told anyone else, even Draco didn't know, my first friend—"

Chapter 51 Demonstration

"So you were in a coma a few days ago because you had to fight that bad woman?" Hermione grabbed Zoe's sheets and asked anxiously, "But in the end you win, you will definitely win!" Yi Gang talked about the coma. She skipped the details of the duel. Hermione’s name made her laugh out loud, but the other party gave her a fierce look, as if saying, "You are still there laugh".

"I hate that selfish woman, but she has disappeared, right?"

"Uh, actually...not yet. I stopped." Zoe replied hesitantly. "Something happened after that. I had to watch her memories for a lifetime. I am in a mess now, I don't know. How should I face that person."

"Of course, I still hate her, but I am very uncomfortable. I didn't understand the weight of what Dumbledore said before. He said I was loved. Is this really the case? I'm not sure. , But want to believe it." She spread her palms out and stared in annoyance, "Maybe because I am too weak, even this kind of thing has to hesitate for a long time... and I don't want her to succeed, I don't want to follow Her pace is gone."

Hermione stepped forward to hug her and said guiltily, "I didn't expect you to bear such a burden on your own."

"That means I'm hiding too well." Zoe put his chin on Hermione's shoulder, "makes you worried."

"But there is a problem..." Hermione looked strange as if thinking of something after the two let go.

"Since your mother has always been in your body, didn't we, uh...that's, when we were intimate, didn't we—" Hermione's mind was empty, her face flushed, and she stammered.Zoe understood what she meant, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

"No! That's why I went to learn Occlumency, because it would isolate her from prying eyes, I promise!" Zoe explained quickly, and Hermione relaxed after repeated confirmations.

But because of the topic just now, neither of them dared to meet each other's eyes."I'm going to help you finish the oatmeal." Hermione stood up suddenly and walked towards the door as if running away.

Before she could open the door, the uninvited guest rushed in. Rosamond was fierce and ran into Hermione who was about to leave. The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Rosamund just opened the door. mouth.

"This is the infirmary, Rosa." Hermione looked at her pleadingly. "And there are people who want to rest. Let's go out and talk about something, okay?"

"Time waits for no one, Hermione." Rosamond was obviously a little angry, and she shook her long pink hair that was still weird. "I also understand you that you have a personal matter to deal with, but so many days have passed! If this continues, we will break up!"

Worried about being reprimanded by Madam Pomfrey, Rosamond finally compromised.She strode ahead, Hermione frowned and followed behind. They stood outside the door of the infirmary and Hermione closed the door.

"Rosa, this is the last time, trust me. From tomorrow on, we will come as we had agreed before, and I will wait for you in the lounge." Hermione lowered her voice, hoping to calm Rosamund's anger. Come down.

"We have less time together! There are so many problems to deal with. We have already said that we should not disrupt the plan because of our own private affairs. It is good for you, for five consecutive days at once! Have you ever thought that I am troubled? My business doesn’t matter to you at all, is it?" Rosamond took a step forward and got closer to Hermione. "This is what you owe me, Hermione Granger. !"

"Zoe is a very important person to me, I can't leave her alone... I'm sorry, Rosa, it was my fault, but it happened so suddenly that I didn't expect it." Hermione lowered her head. "Zoe just woke up, I want to stay with her for one day, really, starting tomorrow, we will return to the previous state."

"Hmph, can't you let her other friends do this? Why do you have to take care of her? Even if you are a friend, there is no need to be so nervous, you can't even see anyone these days, you must stay here Here." Rosamond complained.
