Chapter 586 Godric's Hollow
The world is so big and I want to see it.
After leaving these words to Thicknesse, Ada ran out of the Ministry of Magic in a hurry, showing great irresponsibility.
In order to catch up with the flying Ada, Thicknesse lost one of his shoes. If it weren't for the kind-hearted Laura behind him, Mr. Minister would have no choice but to go to work barefoot.
Ada was really tired of staying at the Ministry of Magic. She was tired of the always bright sunshine in the office, tired of the endless thick files, and tired of the squirming brains and weird curtains in the Department of Mysteries.
In order to relax her tense nerves and prevent them from breaking, Ada decided to take the twins and walk around together. As long as they are there, there will be laughter.
Before Christmas, the joke shop was supposed to be the busiest time, with orders flying into the store like snowflakes. However, the twins were still very loyal. They immediately put down the work at hand and accompanied the wayward Ada to fool around.
Verity was the only one left in the store, busy and scolding the boss for being unscrupulous.
The three of them went around in circles as before, but the content of their chat changed from school-related to the joke shop business.
Argus Filch, the school administrator, banned all Weasley's Wizard Wheezes merchandise and confiscated it immediately upon discovery. The security of Hogwarts is at the highest level this year, and all owls coming in and out will be inspected.
But these difficulties did not stop the twins from making a fortune. They cleverly disguised their products to avoid double inspection by Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic.
Recently, the two brothers have received many orders for love potions. In order to get the love potions into the school smoothly, the two brothers packaged them to look like cough drops or perfume.
There are policies from above and countermeasures from below. Only Filch can't think of anything, and there's nothing Fred and George can't do. Now that they have left Hogwarts, the battle of wits between the twins and Filch continues.
Probably because it was rare to come out to play, Ada felt a little wild, and Diagon Alley could no longer satisfy her.
Ada wanted to go somewhere farther away, a place she had wanted to go to for a long time but had never been able to go. Holding the confused twins in hand, she directly apparated away from London with her two brothers.
With a soft "pop" sound, the twins' feet hit the ground again, and the scenery that caught their eyes was no longer the bustling London, but a snowy alley. The buildings on both sides of the narrow alley remind passers-by that Christmas is coming.
"Where is this?" Fred asked. He stretched his neck and looked around. The surrounding environment was unfamiliar.
"Godric's Hollow, I've wanted to come here for a long time." Ada replied, "The village is named after Gryffindor."
This is the most famous semi-wizard settlement. The great Godric Gryffindor was born here, and it is also where the wizard goldsmith Bowman Wright built the first Golden Snitch. Not only that, Albus Dumbledore also lived here, as well as James Potter and Lily Potter.
The center of the village is a small square with a war monument-like building in the center. Whenever someone walks by, the obelisk engraved with names will turn into statues of three people, James, Lily, and the infant Harry.
In addition to the statue, James and Lily's house has been preserved as a memorial to the Potters and as a reminder of the violence that tore their family apart.
Every year people come to Godric's Hollow to pay their respects, but this is not Ada's purpose, she has other intentions.
There was a small church next to the square, and there were rows of snow-covered tombstones nearby. Ada led the twins towards there. Taking a walk can take you to the cemetery, and Ada is the only one.
There was a narrow door at the entrance to the cemetery, and the three of them got in. The sky was light and it was easy to see the names on the tombstones. There are many ancient wizard family surnames here, including Aibo, Potter, etc.
Some families are still passing on, some have moved away from Godric's Hollow, and some have died out.
In addition to these familiar wizard families, the three of them also saw the tombstone of Kandra Dumbledore and Ariana. There was also a sentence engraved on the tombstone: Where the treasure is, there is the heart.
This sentence seems to come from the Gospel of Matthew in the Bible. Wherever the most precious things in life are, there is your heart.
Ada didn't know much about Albus Dumbledore's past. She only knew that Dumbledore and Grindelwald had an unclear and unclear relationship. She also made up many stories of love and hate in her mind. A bloody drama of love and hatred.
Looking at the dates of birth and death on the tombstone, Ada felt ashamed of her previous impoliteness, even though no one else knew what she thought.
Putting down the wreath, Ada straightened up and continued searching, and finally found what she wanted to see among the rows of tombstones.
It was an extremely old tombstone, and the inscription was somewhat blurry due to weathering. After trying to clean it up, Ada leaned over and carefully felt the inscription on the inscription with her fingers, restoring the inscriptions on it.
"Is this...?" George asked. Seeing Ada's serious look, the two brothers also came over.
"Ignotus Peverell." Ada slowly read out the name on the inscription and ran all the way to Godric's Hollow just for this ancient name.
"Who?" Fred looked at his twin brother, "George, why does this name sound so familiar?"
Of course the twins will find it familiar. The story of the three brothers comes from "The Tales of Beedle the Bard", which is the most famous fairy tale in the wizarding world, equivalent to "Andersen's Fairy Tales" and "Grimm's Fairy Tales" in Muggle society.
Almost all children who grew up in the magical world have read this book, and the twins are no exception. They were just confused for a moment and did not remember it.
"Ignotus Peverell," Ada repeated, "the youngest of the three brothers, master of the Invisibility Cloak."
After Ada's reminder, Fred and George finally remembered who Ignotus was. Then the three of them reviewed the story of the three brothers in this cemetery, in front of Ignotus's tombstone, which was very appropriate for the occasion.
"So, you came to Godric's Hollow to find the Deathly Hallows?" George asked, "The Master of the Elder Wand, the Resurrection Stone, the Invisibility Cloak, and the God of Death. This does sound very attractive."
Having said that, wizards who pursue the Deathly Hallows are like crucian carp crossing the river, but they have never heard of anyone finding them all, let alone who has become the master of Death.
Among the three sacred objects, the whereabouts of the Resurrection Stone and the Invisibility Cloak have been unknown, and there is no news. News about the Elder Wand is the most widespread and widespread, but it is precisely because of the true and false news that it is equally difficult to find the Elder Wand.
"Did you find any clues?" Fred asked curiously. He also wanted to see if the Deathly Hallows was so magical.
This tombstone gave people the impression that it was very old, and it had Ignotus's name on it. It didn't look like someone was forging it, so Fred, the curious baby, asked this question.
George surprisingly did not echo Fred, but rolled his eyes at him and told him to shut up.
In George's view, there are so many wizards pursuing the Deathly Hallows, and there must be others who have found Ignotus's tombstone. If there are any clues on this tombstone, I'm afraid Ada will be late.
Ada repeatedly rubbed the Deathly Hallows symbol on the tombstone.
She smiled and said: "There are three Deathly Hallows, the Elder Wand of Antioch, the Resurrection Stone of Cadmus, and the Invisibility Cloak of Ignotus. I have already figured out the whereabouts of two of them. .”
Hearing Ada's explosive speech, the twins were shocked and speechless at the same time. The two brothers believed that Ada would not lie, which meant that she had really accomplished countless things that no one before her had done.
Not only Fred was curious, but George was also not calm anymore. He asked, "Where are they?"
"A place within reach." Ada said, she straightened up again and walked to the middle of a row of tombstones belonging to the Potter family.
Fred and George, look at me and I look at you. Both brothers looked shocked. It wasn't that they didn't want to believe Ada, but that what Ada said was too unbelievable.
"Where's the other one?" Fred asked, his voice trembling slightly. He was so surprised that he had been so close to the Deathly Hallows.
Ada looked in the direction of Hogwarts and murmured: "It's also within reach, but a little out of reach."
