Chapter 994 Ordinary Funeral

Although today is a cloudy day, it is unexpectedly clear. When Maca arrived at the destination, there was a slightly pleasant breeze blowing on the open hillside.

He looked left and right a few times, and then walked slowly along the snow-shoveled stone road together with Sirius.

It can be seen that Sirius has already changed into a set of black formal robes for wizards when he came this time. And Maca, who had been walking in the Muggle world, had already taken off his ordinary Muggle attire and put back on his dark wizard robe made of basilisk materials.

Today's place is a place that needs to be dignified and decent.

"It doesn't look like there are many people?"

Looking up, just near some black iron fences on the hillside, there are some witches and wizards also dressed in dark clothes gathered.

Since their backs are facing this side, Maca and Sirius can only see the backs of their heads for the time being. But even though they are so far away, the two of them can still feel the weight of the approaching.

"It's a bit small," Sirius said softly. "Both Pierce and his wife have no brothers or sisters. They do have some friends, but they can't really be called many. And... due to Madam's request, this matter is in a hurry. Some people have not been able to contact so far.”

Having been mentioned here by Sirius, things are actually already obvious—yes, little Cathy's mother, Mrs. Pierce, her life came to an end so quickly after all.

According to her wishes before she died, the funeral seemed somewhat hasty.

"Perhaps, this is also considering my daughter's mood!" Maka said while walking, "During this time, I have been with little Cathy all day, and I have cried and laughed... Some burial, so that little Cathy can embark on a new life as soon as possible."

Hearing what Maca said, Sirius thought for a while, and couldn't help but nodded.

"I guess so!"

Of course, no matter how rushed, funerals can feel depressing and poignant.

After Maca and Sirius quickly came to the open space outside the cemetery, the surrounding atmosphere became more and more stuffy.

To be honest, this kind of atmosphere is actually not unfamiliar to Maca.

"Hello, are these two Mr. Maca McClain and Mr. Sirius Black?"

Not long after arriving at the place, a lady who was somewhat similar in age to the former Mrs. Pierce walked over and asked politely.

Maca could feel that her slightly low tone was also mixed with a strong sadness.

"Yes, hello! I'm McLean, and this is Blake—" he nodded slightly, "We received a message from St. Mungo before, and the dean asked us to come here and wait for a while."

"Oh, it's like this, Mr. Dean also asked me to wait for you here... Although it's a bit inappropriate, it's really an honor to meet you."

When the lady heard this, she immediately became more reserved.

"I'm Maggie Greene, my husband and wife were former classmates and good friends for so many years... Seriously, if she had told me earlier, I wouldn't have found out until she left ..."

Just as she was talking, Maggie quickly shook her head with a mournful face.

"Forget it, it doesn't make much sense to say this now. I can also understand that she must want to leave the last time for little Cathy."

"Well, I thought so too."

Maka gave her a slight smile, then turned her head and looked at the intersection of the stone road where she came as if casually.

And at the next moment, with a twist in that space, a black coffin and several figures appeared from it.

"coming."

Everyone in this open space did not move, but they were still looking at Maca and Sirius before, but now they all turned to the direction of the stone road.

The coffin was floating in the air, and it was controlled by Mr. Bernthal, the dean of St. Mungo who walked in front.

And at the back of the coffin, besides the expressionless little Cathy with her eyes slightly lowered, there was also an old couple walking beside her.

Because they were already very close to the cemetery, they didn't make everyone wait any longer, and the coffin came to the open space after a while.

At this time, Maggie who was behind Maca seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, and hurried forward to meet her.

"Lauren... oh, Lauren..."

Maggie leaned her forehead on the coffin, and said a lot of words intermittently while shedding tears.

It starts from the life of her classmates with Pierce and his wife, to the couple's wedding that year, to the birth of little Cathy, and to the early death of Mr. Pierce.

Every word was accompanied by a sad sob.

It can be seen that she has a deep relationship with Mrs. Pierce, and the two have shared many joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys—they are good girlfriends for a lifetime.

After that, Maggie, who had calmed down a little, dragged her steps to Little Cathy, and hugged her tightly in her arms.

"Honey, maybe it's better to cry out, it will hurt your body if you bear it like this..."

Maggie's words seemed to contain magical powers. She had just uttered them, and some relatives and friends who had been enduring just now couldn't help crying. Including the old couple standing behind Little Cathy, supporting each other, couldn't help but burst into tears.

That must be the parents of the Pierces! I don't know if it belongs to my wife or her former husband.

However, even though many people cried, Little Cathy, who was held in Maggie's arms, still leaned against her expressionlessly.

Even, she suddenly broke free from the opponent's arm and took a step back.

"Aunt Maggie, I've already thought about it. I won't cry today." Little Cathy raised her head, her clear blue eyes shining brightly.

"Because my mother wouldn't like me watching her cry. I think she would prefer me to send her away with a smile, wouldn't she?"

This is really a very sensible child - Maca has thought so more than once. It's a pity, this kid may not be able to laugh today, right?

Thinking secretly, he also opened his legs and walked over there.

"Good morning, little Cathy."

"...Mr. McLean." Seeing that it was Maca, Little Cathy immediately leaned over and saluted.

It was rare for the first time to see this little girl greet him so obediently, but on such an occasion, Maca didn't know whether he should be happy or not.

But before Maca could speak again, Little Cathy suddenly bowed deeply again, and said first:

"Mr. McLean, before my mother is buried, I must first express my sincerest thanks to you. This ceremony is not only on behalf of myself, but also my mother entrusted me to do it for her... It is you who allowed me to send her The last journey is also for you to let her finally have no pain... and leave with a smile."

What little Cathy said was indeed the truth, not to mention that Maca guided Mrs. Pierce to tell the truth that had been holding back in her heart, and even with the help of powerful magic, she suppressed the severe pain of her soul being burned by the black flame every day .

If it weren't for her, Mrs. Pierce would have been tortured to the point of insanity like Neville's parents.

But for this, Maca just nodded with a smile.

"Really?" he said, "I've received your thanks, but... I thought I'd say thank you to both of you, too. Your mom, especially, when she was trying to heal her, her The injury also provided a wealth of valuable information for my research, which allowed me to save the lives of several other patients with lesser injuries."

"Not only that, those data and materials have now been sent to Hogwarts by me. I believe that they will become research subjects for more people, so that even if those monsters reappear, they will not be as serious as before. horrible."

Speaking of this, Maca couldn't help but sighed.

"It's just a pity that in the end I still couldn't find a way to make your mother recover."

Little Cathy shook her head quickly, but didn't say anything more.

Immediately, after the old couple in the back saluted Maca, the coffin began to move again in everyone's sight, and floated towards the entrance of the cemetery.

After entering the cemetery, the whole funeral and burial process seemed a bit dull.

The funeral was presided over by the dean, Mr. Bernthal. Given his status in the British magic world, even though there were not many people present at the funeral, the specifications of the funeral were definitely not small.

What's more, in front of today's tomb is a young wizard like Maca whose fame has spread to the world's magic world.

After Dean Bernthal's eulogy, Maca also stepped forward to say a few words because he was called by the other party.

As for what he said in detail, it was nothing more than words to comfort strangers. After all, the deceased is gone, and Mrs. Pierce must not be able to hear it.

The only thing worth mentioning is that when the coffin fell into the pit, little Cathy still couldn't bear it until the end to build a monument, and she shed her first string of crystal clear tears today on the coffin lid.

Finally, Maca and Sirius walked out of the cemetery slowly, and returned to the hillside outside.

"Are you leaving now?" Sirius couldn't help but turned his head and glanced inside, "With your character, I thought you would stay till the end!"

Little Cathy's strength made people feel even more distressed. Even a guy like Sirius who had already looked down on life and death couldn't bear to leave.

But Maca shook his head lightly, and quietly said:

"That Maggie is right, sometimes... just cry."

Not long after, the two disappeared in the same place in an instant, and left without disturbing anyone.

It's just that Maca didn't expect that less than ten minutes after he left, another figure quietly appeared from not far away accompanied by the distortion of space.

It's the mysterious wizard who always wears a trench coat and hides his face in the shadow of the brim of his hat.

How did this person come here?
