Chapter 42 Looking in the Mirror Secretly at Midnight

The next night, Harry, Ron and Aaron squeezed into the invisibility cloak, carefully walked through the corridor, climbed countless stairs, and came to an empty classroom.

This classroom was covered with dust, like a place to store sundries.

In addition to a pile of tables and chairs, a particularly tall mirror was placed by the wall.

"That's right, it's here, this is the mirror I was talking about." Harry couldn't wait to take off the invisibility cloak, and excitedly pointed at the smooth mirror, "Do you see it? This is my father and mother."

"But I only see the three of us." Ron said.

"Change the angle, stand over here." Harry pulled Ron over so that he could see the mirror better, "Okay, you see them!"

Harry was about to point out his parents in the mirror, but Ron shouted excitedly, "That's me, I became the president of the male student union, and I'm holding the Quidditch cup.

What a great thing, I also became the captain of Quidditch, I'm so awesome.

Harry, can this mirror show the future?"

"How is it possible?" Harry lowered his head with regret, "My parents are dead."

"It's really impossible!" Aaron said meaningfully, "This is definitely not a future thing."

"Aaron, what about you? What do you see?" Ron asked with interest.

"Let me see." Aaron walked to the front of the mirror, and Harry and Ron consciously made way for him.

After more than ten seconds, Aaron touched his chin and fell into deep thought, "How could this happen?"

"What did you say?" Harry asked.

Aaron shook his head, "Unfortunately, I only saw myself. The mirror also treats differently!"

"You mean you can't see your parents like Harry, and you can't become the student union president like me?" Ron said in surprise, and then patted Aaron's shoulder with a little sympathy, "You can only see yourself. Such a magical prop is useless to you."

"Take your hand away, okay?" Aaron rolled his eyes speechlessly, pointed at the golden frame of the mirror and said, "You'd better look at the words engraved on this mirror."

"Eris Stella Erhelu Aitbiwu Ka Fru Aiton Voorhees. "Aaron read out the words one by one, "Obviously this is a string of garbled characters, and there may not be such a person in the entire wizarding world.

But this is not a name, but a sentence, a sentence introducing this mirror.

You will know if you spell out the letters of these words in reverse. "

Harry and Ron looked at each other, looked at the frame of the mirror at the same time, and then said in unison: "It shows us the deepest and most desperate desires in our hearts. "

"So this mirror will let us see what we want to see?" Harry asked.

"That's right!"

"But how can you only see yourself?" Ron asked curiously, then he thought of something and opened his mouth in astonishment, "You don't have anything you desire, do you? That's so pitiful!"

"No, that's not the case." Aaron shook his head, "As long as you are a human, you will have desires. It's impossible for me to be without desires, but my desires can't be reflected in this mirror."

"It sounds great.

What is your desire?"

Aaron was stunned for a moment, then turned around and gave Ron a meaningful smile, "Do you think I should tell you?

This is already a personal privacy!"

"Uh..." Ron smiled awkwardly, "I don't mean anything else, I'm just curious."

"Then please put away your curiosity."

"Aaron, can you give me a seat first?" Harry said a little embarrassedly, "I still want to see my parents, they are all gone, I may only be able to see them through this mirror."

"Okay." Aaron made way and made a "please" gesture.

"Thank you!" Harry simply said thank you, and then stood quietly in front of the mirror.

His eyes gradually became gentle, and he reached out to touch the mirror, with a faint smile on his face.

The beauty and warmth of reuniting with his family were beyond words, but Harry's expression seemed a little silly to Aaron and Ron.

After more than ten minutes, Ron hesitated and asked with some concern: "Will he be okay?"

"No, he just saw the family affection he most desired in his heart, and he couldn't extricate himself for a while.

But you have to pay attention to one thing, don't let him get deeper and deeper.

No matter how beautiful the things seen in the mirror are, they are always illusions.

It's enough to simply miss and inspire yourself, but it's the greatest tragedy to waste time for fantasy."

Ron:......

"Your preaching, no, what you said makes sense.

But why do you want me to pay attention?"

"Do you still need to ask this?

You are Harry Potter's best friend, inseparable all day long, who is more suitable than you?"

Ron opened his mouth and stood up proudly, "You're right, as his best friend, I have to pull him out."

As he said that, Ron walked up to Harry and grabbed his arm, "Harry, you need to take a break."

"Let me watch for a while."

"No, you're almost seeing yourself." Ron said righteously, "Just let me watch for a while!"

Puff!

Hearing this, Aaron almost couldn't catch his breath.

Is this the so-called best friend? I thought the friendship was so deep! But...

That's it? Plastic brotherhood, a little disappointing!

"Ahem! Although it's a bit of a letdown, I still want to disturb you.

We should go. Don't you feel bored to come here to look at a broken mirror late at night?"

Harry and Ron looked at each other, and then shook their heads at the same time.

Although they knew that the things in the mirror were fake, it was a great comfort to the soul, so they naturally wanted to look at it for a while.

Aaron held his head and shook his head, "Coming with you two to see this broken mirror is my biggest failure this semester."

"Haha! Don't say that!" Ron smiled awkwardly, "Why don't you come over and try again, maybe I can see your desire!"

"That's not necessary.

Compared to the flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water, I prefer to be down-to-earth, and I hope you do too." Aaron said, and then ignored Harry and Ron's weird expressions, and walked towards the door on his own, "I'll leave first, wish you two good night."

"Wait a minute." Harry hurriedly stopped him, "You don't have an invisibility cloak, it's not safe to go out."

"I have my own way." Aaron took out a transparent bottle (invisibility potion) meaningfully, then pushed open the door and walked out.

"I always feel that he is sometimes more serious than my mother." Ron said with a twitch in his mouth.

Harry nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a "bang".

The door suddenly opened, and Aaron ran over in a panic, "Well, I think we have to leave, but we may have to hide before that."

"Why? I haven't seen enough!" Harry said reluctantly.

"That's right, I haven't seen it yet!"

"I saw Mrs. Norris, is that enough reason?"

Ron was shocked for a moment, and asked nervously: "You mean the cat? Filch's?"

"What else?"

As soon as the voice fell, the three heard the cat's cry.

Harry and Ron trembled subconsciously, and without any nonsense, they decisively pulled up the invisible cloak and covered Aaron in it.

After a while, a pale yellow light appeared at the door, and Filch walked in with a lantern.

He looked around the classroom carefully, but found no students who violated the rules. "Let's go, dear, there's nothing unusual here."

Mrs. Norris meowed unwillingly and took a few steps towards the invisibility cloak. The three of them held their breath in tacit understanding at this moment and stepped back at the same time.

Filch frowned slightly and looked in front of Mrs. Norris. "No one! Maybe you made a mistake!"

After they left, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Aaron came out of the invisibility cloak. "I think we can go back now!"

"Of course, of course." Ron nodded angrily. He was frightened just now and didn't want to stay any longer.

Harry was still a little reluctant, he slowly stroked the Mirror of Erised, "I think I can look at it for a while longer, Filch shouldn't be back in a short time!"

"Heh!" Aaron smiled speechlessly, "Harry, no, Harry Potter, you are really smart, violating school rules so confidently.

Have you ever thought about what if Filch suddenly returns?"

"That's right.

Harry, being caught by Filch is not a good thing.

We have already made Percy angry once, if we are really caught this time, we will not be able to see him."

"But..."

"No buts." Aaron interrupted him, "This mirror is here, it won't run away, you can come anytime if you want to see it, but now we have to go back."

Ron nodded hurriedly at Harry, regardless of whether he was willing or not, and directly pulled him towards the door.
