Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

Even if Zoe pierced the goal, Bellatrix was not embarrassed at all.She looked at Zoe wantonly with a viper-like gaze, as if she was evaluating the possible results after doing it, and Zoe did not show weakness. In front of a lunatic like Bellatrix, she can only be made crazier than her. Give in.

"At least think about the other person, Bella." She put her hand on her belly and smiled softly. "Will Tom appreciate the possible consequences of your mess?"

Hearing her say this, Bellatrix's face changed and changed, and finally succumbed to Zoe's threat.Her belly has been bulging obviously, and it is obviously not caused by obesity.She can indeed tear her face with Zoe here, but the result of a duel with an equally powerful wizard will be unpredictable.

If she loses the child in her belly because of this... she cannot bear the consequences.

Seeing Bellatrix put away his wand, Zoe was secretly relieved.She doesn’t want to be in conflict with the other party here. It’s not that she is worried about losing. She just thinks that it may cause many unnecessary risks and accidents. This is what she hopes to avoid, even if she is threatened with the life of an unborn child. Mother.

Thinking of the immense greed and sin that this child was destined to bear, she subconsciously wanted to kill it before everything happened.After she knew about it for the first time, this idea appeared from time to time, but in the end she couldn't escape the question of conscience.

Bellatrix may think that being selected and leaving an heir for the Dark Lord is an extremely glorious gift, which can be seen from her unabashedly proud expression of Zoe.Even now, there are not a few people who don't know Zoe's identity and still regard her as the blood of the Dark Lord. Naturally, they dare not ask themselves what happened to cause such a situation.There are also people who are clever, thinking that they have found the truth, and they dare not talk to others.

Zoe may be one of the last insiders in the world, even Bellatrix, who is the subject, would not understand Voldemort's intentions.Zoe also asked Max, hoping to give herself advice from her perspective, but Max was never as she wanted, just smiled and fooled.

"Who knows the result of the gambling? Once the dice are thrown out, they are no longer under the control of the parties." She still remembered Max's answer at the time, "If you are really worried, just overturn the gaming table."

If I can do it, what can I say to you here!Zoe muttered and ended the conversation.

Chapter 41 Visiting

In the middle of the night, a dim light suddenly flashed across the dark ground, followed by the sound of shoes stepping on the stone ladder. The sound was not loud, but it was amplified very suddenly in the silent space.Da, Da, Da, the visitors walked slowly down the steep stairs to the underground cell, and her shadow was stretched behind her by the light of the oil lamp, reflected on the stone wall beside her.

The flame in the lamp was beating, casting a deep shadow on Zoe's face. The light could only illuminate the steps in front of her, and darkness squeezed from all directions.She quickly walked to the bottom of the stone ladder, where a heavy iron door was locked tightly. She took out her wand and knocked on the lock. The door lock automatically slid to the other side, and the iron door greeted the visitor with a harsh sigh. , A damp and cold breath hit Zoe's face, and a heavy musty smell filled the air.

It has been centuries since the dungeon of Malfoy Manor ceased to be used. It seems to have become one of the forgotten corners of the manor. Even the house elves will not be ordered to clean them regularly.But because Voldemort finally chose to use this as his command headquarters after Voldemort's comeback, the Malfoys finally remembered that there is still such a place in the manor.

Zoe raised his arm to allow the light to shine further.She seemed to hear the voice from the dungeon, and the voice disappeared immediately after she opened the iron door. The people in the prison remained silent, and they were also expecting people outside to leave quickly. They knew that no matter this person Whoever it is, they will not be their companions, and they dare not expect that people will be hostile to them.

"Alaho Cave opens."

Even through the prison door, the sound of the spell was still clearly audible.Then there was a sour scream, and the light came in and tore the darkness apart.The people in the prison subconsciously raised their hands to cover their eyes. They had always been in a dark environment and could not accept such light for a while.

The visitor was obviously not satisfied with just standing outside the prison. After the footsteps, it was the light sound of the handle of the oil lamp being placed on the metal hook.The oil lamp shook inertially, and the light swayed into the entire basement.

"Have you had dinner?" The visitor asked gently, his voice was familiar.

Luna finally got used to the light, and was trying to determine the identity of the visitor."Zou, Zoe?!" The other girl who was locked up answered her doubts loudly.With a heartbeat, Luna was a little frightened for no reason. Her arms seemed to be heavy. She had thought about many forms of goodbye, but there was no such one. Suddenly, she didn't want to put her hand down at all.

When she slowly dropped her arms, she ran into Zoe's smiling eyes, but the other party quickly took the initiative to look away.Compared with last year, her appearance hasn't changed much, but her temperament feels strange.

Even if she became more reliable, she could still see the childish side that Zoe showed in the past. Whether it was anger or horns, or simply tantrums and awkwardness, Luna could find a lot of fun in it, even if it happened. After a quarrel, you can smile knowingly in retrospect.

But the one who got along with her day and night was her Luna Lovegood's most important friend, a clumsy and awkward living person with a beautiful soul.Not this stranger who feels flawless and hides her true face under a smiling mask, even if she is very considerate.

Unlike Hannah who stepped forward with excitement, Luna took a step back, a strong sense of disappointment hitting her chest.She watched the conversation between Hannah and Zoe in a daze. Zoe was able to avoid Hannah’s questions and requests for help in a sleek manner. While properly soothing, she didn’t disclose any information, and she still knew what Hannah knew during the conversation Everything is taken away.

"Don't worry, you can't be locked here forever." Zoe said vaguely.She thought that Luna and Ollivander were at most confined here, but she didn’t expect Hufflepuff’s Hannah Abbot to also be confined in. According to the information she heard from her, she was detained with Luna. The reason for the arrest was similar. The Death Eaters also used her to threaten her parents and force them to make choices.

In addition to this, Zoe was surprised that there was actually a goblin imprisoned here. It was sitting in a corner of the wall with drooping eyelids, its dark face was covered with scars, and it was obviously whipped.It seemed to faint, but its pointed ears quivered slightly from time to time, and it seemed to be trying to stay awake.

"Really? Will they let us go!" Hannah showed hope, and nervously grabbed the feet of her robe crumpled.She and Luna were arrested almost one after the other, but they showed completely different states. Hanna seemed to have endured to the limit and was on the verge of collapse.

"As long as you are obedient, it is not difficult to guarantee your life." Zoe shook his head because of her innocent remarks, but it wouldn't help to continue to put pressure on Hannah, so she simply moved on to the next topic.

She ignored the panic of others when she raised her wand.A dining table appeared out of thin air, falling steadily on the floor. On the spread tablecloth, there were baskets full of bread. The tableware stacked in the corner made a crisp sound of collision, and the hot stew came out in an iron pot of the same size. With white smoke, the enticing fragrance is poured into every corner.

"Not much, but enough for you to eat." She transformed into a chair and sat on it by herself, "Please."

No one came forward."Why give us something to eat?" Hannah swallowed nervously. She restrained herself from staring at the pot of stew with greedy eyes, which was really a shame.Of course, Death Eaters will let them eat, but that is only to enable them to live, not to give them an experience of enjoyment and satisfaction.

Luna closed her eyes, her lips pressed tightly.Ollivander stood up and sat up. Even the goblin struggling to open his eyes. They hesitated and did not want to come forward. They were mainly worried about traps that might be hidden in the food. Such things are not uncommon.

"Don't you want to eat without giving reasons?" Zoe asked amusedly.

"You don't know, no one dared to eat." Luna finally said the first sentence after Zoe arrived, "Who knows what you want to do with this pile of things? Maybe you put something strange in it. thing."

"You don't need to eat, but there will be no more food delivered. You decide whether you want to go hungry or not." Zoe finished, no matter what other people think, "whether it is sympathy, caring, It’s because you want to laugh at your ugliness. Just go find a reason to convince yourself."

After the silence, Ollivander got up tremblingly, the flesh on both sides of his cheeks had sunk inward, a look of weakness, the long-term imprisonment life brought his health to the edge of a certain danger."If nothing happens after I eat, you will go over."

"Mr. Ollivander!" Hannah wanted to hold him.

Ollivander walked to the table and cast his eyes on Zoe's wand unconsciously."I remember, before this beech wand, many years ago, I sold a wand—"

"Ebony wood, twelve and one-half inches, unicorn hair." Zoe said instead.

"Yes. That child feels amazing. I rarely remember the holder of the wand, but she impressed me very much." Ollivander took an empty plate and put the stew on it. He seemed to have figured out a certain joint, and the previous hesitation disappeared.

"Although I don't know you at all, I always believe that the magic wand chose the wizard. The owner of the ebony wand is usually very proud and highly self-conscious. They will always follow their own path instead of being The opinions of others, even if it is evil, I believe your goal is not just to torture a worthless old man like me."

Ollivander quickly finished eating the stew and burped contentedly, his face was slightly bloody, and he was obviously relaxed.He did not serve the second plate, and only half of the bread was eaten. To this elderly man, fullness even became a burden to some extent.

"I didn't see the ebony wand, madam." Although Ollivander was still very upset when facing Zoe, his eyes lighted up again when he raised the wand.

"Because it has been ruined." Zoe replied casually.

"It's a pity, it's a very wonderful wand, I spent a lot of effort to make it..."

Hannah came forward. She first brought food for the wounded fairy, then looked at Luna as if she was admonished. After being rejected by the other party, she frowned and served herself a plate.

Zoe didn't ask Luna why she refused to eat. She could perceive a little bit from Luna's negative emotions, but she couldn't take the initiative to care about her, that would be too strange.

Chapter forty-two

Zoe didn't stay in the dungeon for long. Even though every life in the manor should fall asleep at this time, inappropriate behavior may still cause problems and arouse others' suspicion.She has completed the goal of visiting, and she is very happy to see that Luna has not suffered any more signs of torture other than malnutrition. The current state of other people also relieved her.

The Death Eaters will not leave behind worthless captives, they will throw them into Azkaban to fend for themselves.Among all the people present, the most likely to be taken away and transferred is the fairy called Griphook.However, due to the long active and effective ambush operations of the Aurors headed by Gadvin and the serious injury of Barty Crouch Jr., the transfer was more cautious, so that it is very possible to suspend the transport of prisoners to Azkaban. .If the criminals are robbed by the enemy every time they are transferred, it will not only make the prestige of the two sides diminish from the other, but it will also be meaningless to continue.

In addition, just be careful not to let these people fall victim to certain madmen's whim. If Dumbledore's speculation is correct, she just needs to hold on until that day comes.Many thoughts passed through his mind, but Zoe couldn't see it at all.With a wave of her magic wand, the dining table disappeared again as if it had never appeared before, along with the utensils that had been used.

Zoe walked up the stairs carefully, leading to the dim aisle connecting the living room to the door at the end.The oil lamp in her hand made a slight noise as she walked around, and she quickly and lightly stepped on the carpet across the living room and walked towards the guest room.There was no sound in the manor, only the fire in the fireplace continued to emit light and heat, and the elves who worked for the Malfoys would do their best to keep the fire from extinguishing.

The light source brought by the oil lamp disappeared with Zoe's departure, and the darkness was restored again.What broke this deep silence was a slowly moving shadow, which came out close to the corner, silently.Bellatrix's thoughtful face twisted weirdly in the firelight, looking excited and suspicious, and sank into the darkness again as his footsteps moved.

********

"Hallelujah." Daisy was almost humming the compliments with her nose, making her tone more ironic.Even if the outside of the school has been filled with chaos, death, persecution, and resistance, on Christmas Day, Hogwarts is still full of colorful ribbons composed of holly and chrysanthemum, and the tall and tall Christmas tree hangs on it. With shining crystal-like small decorations, the green layer was covered with a dazzling cloak. Hundreds of white candles were suspended above the long table of the four colleges, and the whole hall was brightly lit.Perhaps it is to bring a bit of vitality to the little wizards. Several professors have tried their best to make this Christmas look a little bigger, hoping to dispel the horror cloud that entangles people's hearts.

Their efforts did achieve a certain effect. After the party officially began, the stagnant atmosphere in the auditorium gradually thawed. Even if the students who were cruelly oppressed still couldn't relax completely, at least they were willing to smile occasionally when chatting with their peers. Instead of burying your face in the plate and eating silently.

Daisy didn't intend to join the conversation with her friends around her, and she only responded with a few perfunctory words about her concern.She cut the steak on the plate until the knife started rubbing against the bottom of the plate, making a disgusting crunch.She didn't pay attention to the food in front of her at all, just pretending to be eating, but her eyes were glued to the woman sitting on the teacher's seat and smiling triumphantly.

Alekto seemed to be chatting with McGonagall. She didn't care about Magna's irritation that she almost wrote the refusal directly on her face. She kept talking about herself. The topic was killed in the murder plan she planned in the past. The Muggle family turned into a few illegal students who were unfortunately caught by her brother Amikos two days ago. As long as she mentioned using the Diamond Curse on those children, her eyes were filled with excitement.

Amikos is the only one among the faculty members who has clearly expressed interest in this topic. Even Snape, who is a Death Eater, just keeps his face boring and doesn’t look at these two excited people. Guys.Although Slughorn smiled as if he was listening, the smile twitched, and from time to time he wiped his sweaty forehead with a handkerchief.

It has been several weeks since Daisy was captured back to Hogwarts. She soon returned to Ravenclaw, reunited with her past partners, and attended classes in a safe classroom (as long as you can learn to close at some point) Mouth, obedient and blind), enjoy fresh and delicious food...but time has not calmed her spiritual self-blame and regret.She felt like a walking corpse who had lost her soul, and would be wiped out with the touch of it.
