Chapter 689: Going Home

For the rest of this semester, the little wizards all shrank in the castle, not because they didn't want to go out to play, but because of the continuous torrential rain and the wet square, they didn't want to go out, and they would rather stay in the library to finish their homework , Play and pass the time in the common room.

And Allen didn't concentrate on his research and things these days, because he found that these days, since he met Helena, her situation was a little bit wrong, and he noticed Helena several times in the past few days He began to look at himself quietly again. It's just that once her eyes collided with Alan, she turned her head expressionlessly, as if it wasn't her who was caught peeking.

Asking Helena, she didn't say much about it except that the etiquette was still well-bred. Allen couldn't help but think of the situation where Helena followed him secretly when he was in the fourth grade. Obviously at that time she already knew the relationship with herself.

In a blink of an eye, the end of the semester is coming. This year's Hogwarts banquet is very different from previous years. It is not only a more lavish banquet, but the house elves have almost taken out the remaining reserves. Anyway, they will wait until the next semester A lot of things probably broke down when the school started, and the Aurors had already entered Hogwarts, guarding the main corridors, and increased the security around the college, including the village of Hogsmeade. They are also a good job in themselves, and many adult wizards are willing to take this opportunity to return to school.

The huge screen that the little wizards can see from the auditorium is showing the precautions required by the Ministry of Magic for Hogwarts students. It is worth noting that the Ministry of Magic emphasized in this propaganda that they are in danger. They can use wands for self-defense, and everyone is encouraged to go to the Ministry of Magic to get the kind of badge that can quickly report to the Ministry of Magic.

However, due to the previous news promotion and the stationed Aurors gave the students enough confidence, and Ravenclaw successfully defended the Academy Cup again, everyone at the Ravenclaw long table was celebrating, and everyone ate and drank together , talking and laughing.

As Professor Dumbledore announced the end of the banquet, everyone went back to the dormitory contentedly with their full stomachs, but for the little wizards, except for next year's professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts In addition, the news that Professor McGonagall deducted 100 points from the Gryffindor group of five a few days before the end of the term is also the hottest topic recently—fortunately, Gryffindor scored under Umbridge's rule. The other Gryffindors who were already at the bottom did not have any greater reaction to the five-person group.

"I heard it was Ron Weasley who suddenly went berserk in the Three Broomsticks, crying hysterically at the poor waitress." Michael Kerner collapsed in the Ravenclaw public On the soft sofa in the lounge, he said lazily.

"The waitress is called Cheryl. She has beautiful honey-colored hair. Both Parvati and I have asked her about the brand of shampoo she uses..." Padma Patil picked her fingers, frowning slightly He said angrily: "Poor Sherrill, she just came to work as a waiter just after giving birth because of her husband's illness. That redhead should really go to St. Mungo's Hospital to have a look at his head. I heard that he didn't want to It's the coming out that's the one thing that's so anxious about poor Cheryl."

The next day, the castle was full of hustle and bustle, and the little wizards happily packed their luggage. The return of Voldemort did not hinder their plan to enjoy a long and pleasant summer vacation.

As the departure time of the crimson train approached, the little wizards in the castle had already started to pack their luggage, and when Luna finished and went to Alan's lounge to meet, Helena was looking expressionlessly at the Hermione who passed by couldn't stand Alan's slow motion, and put his clothes neatly and color-coded into the box - and Alan was a little idle, so he simply used this time to go Went to Flitwick's office to say goodbye to his closest professor and colleague at Hogwarts.

Seeing Luna come in, Helena greeted her, stared at Hermione's tidying up a few more times, then turned around and hurried through the wall without a trace, as if annoyed.

"Luna, what's wrong with her?" Hermione asked a little confused, she thought she had done something to make her unhappy.

Luna, who was half-lying and half-sitting on the chair, didn't raise her head, and she asked in a daze without waking up: "What?"

It was finally time to leave. Helena floated calmly behind Alan and Luna. They walked to the hall along the usual route to meet Alan's sister Emily, who was quite popular in Slytherin. Emily is saying her final goodbyes to her classmates.

Since Alan and the others came out quite late, the corridors were full of little wizards in a hurry. When they saw Helena following Luna and Alan walking side by side, they all cast surprised eyes.

Students, they have all heard the news that the crazy girl Luna is Rowena Ravenclaw, and Helena is a child of Ravenclaw. Looking at the situation in front of her, she recalled that Ms. Gray With those scenes with Luna, they couldn't help but doubt the veracity of that somewhat fanciful rumor.

When they rushed to the foyer, Hermione pointed to the little wizards outside the castle who had started to trot in a hurry: "Let's hurry up, the train is leaving soon."

Suddenly Hermione became quiet, and she realized that the atmosphere was wrong. At this time, Luna and Allen stayed motionless and looked at Helena. On the contrary, Helena was used to saying goodbye to them at this time every year. She waved to her parents expressionlessly, then turned and left.

Outside the castle, countless little wizards happily chased and ran, trying to board the train, and they were about to meet their family they hadn't seen for a semester. In the castle, after saying goodbye to Allen and the others, Helena floated alone through the marble stairs, through the empty corridors, and towards the Ravenclaw tower.

Looking at Helena's lonely back when she walked through the wall, Allen suddenly understood the abnormality of the other party during this period of time - she was already used to this kind of lonely life, but she had to admit to each other's identities and short-lived life with difficulty. After the reunion, she has to endure another separation and endure the loneliness of being alone, and she has lived such a hopeless life for nearly a thousand years.

Thinking back to the scene when he and Helena met in the basement, that girl who seemed to be lifeless in the dark—although strictly speaking, she was indeed not alive.

Died in his most beautiful years, almost never saw all kinds of beautiful scenery in the world, tasted delicious food but could no longer feel the taste of it, never experienced love and being loved - Alan would not admit that the blood man Baro The love for Helena, in fact, he suspected that he rarely met her in the academy, because this ghost, who was actually a Ravenclaw victim, knew something to hide from him on purpose...

For hundreds of years, my daughter can only float in the corner, watching and admiring the happiest end-of-school ceremony of all the little wizards and enjoying the delicious food. It's all like a dream.

Thinking of how long this summer vacation, Helena can only wander alone in the castle by herself—her relationship with other ghosts is not very good, unlike the sociable and friendly headless horseman who can have so many ghosts Friends, thinking of this, Alan's heart feels like being grabbed by a pair of big hands because of his carelessness.

"Wait for me." Without waiting for the girls to respond, Allen chased in Helena's direction.

"Helena." Following Allen's call, Helena immediately stopped floating and turned around on the spot.

"Huh? Father, did you forget to take something?" Helena's tone was polite, but with a hint of unfamiliarity.

Allen didn't answer her question, but asked his daughter pretending to be puzzled, "Where are you going?"

Helena was a little puzzled: "Me? What? Aren't you leaving now?"

"It's us who are leaving together." Alan stretched out his hand to Helena, holding her daughter's translucent left hand.

"Where are you going?" Helena's voice was a little dazed, and her body seemed to be frozen in place.

"Daddy will take you home."
