Hagrid's face immediately showed a relieved look of relief, and he nodded in response, clumsily intending to take little Harry from Willow Spring's hand with a timid and somewhat fearful face.
However, neither of them expected that Harry would use his two chubby little hands to wrap around Willow Spring's neck, and even use his fat fingers like a small radish to desperately grab Willow Spring's long hair hanging down the back of his neck, but he refused to leave Willow Spring's arms.
Liu Quan coughed embarrassedly, looked at the half-giant in front of him who immediately showed a helpless expression, and subconsciously glanced back at the godfather of the child in his arms. At this time, the two big men were staring at her and the little baby in her arms for the rest of their lives, as if waiting for her, the only lady present, to settle the big doll who refused to cooperate.
Willow Quan sighed softly and left the door, ignoring Cialis who was stunned in the middle of the room, carefully walked around the body of Beryl Potter lying quietly on the ground, and began to pat little Harry's body while humming a song softly, intending to lull him to sleep before handing him over to Hagrid to take away.
Although she had coaxed children before, it was all in the real world, so she couldn't think of any English nursery rhymes for a while. When she opened her mouth, the first song that jumped into her mind was actually this melody:
Midnight
[The earth is dead silent]
Ry [Did the moon also lose her memory]
[Look how desolate she laughs alone]
inthelamplight
[Fallen leaves began to accumulate under my feet]
Moan [And the wind began to wail]"
Although she had liked this song before, she had not remembered it for a long time, so when she opened her mouth, she suddenly felt that it was extremely difficult to pronounce words, and the syllables she uttered were quite indistinct.
But fortunately, the melody of the music was not affected, and the charm of the good song was able to transcend time and space—in this era, the song had not yet been written, and she did not know if it would be written in the future—little Harry twisted a few times in her arms, and lay quietly in her arms, no longer struggling, except that his chubby little hands still wrapped around her neck, and tugged at her hair as if he were afraid that she would leave him behind.
Liu Quan's heart tightened, and there was a hazy mist in his eyes. The melody she sang was softer, and the lyrics of the song struck her mind again, and she slowly walked back and forth in the room with Harry in her arms, turning in circles and patting him gently, as if for a moment the whole world was just herself and the little orphaned doll in her arms.
"Memory]
light [Standing alone in the moonlight]
icansys [I can smile in those old days]
[At that time, I used to be radiant]
sswas [When I think of that time, I understand what happiness is]
ryliveagain [Let the memories come again]"
Liu Quan sang it over and over again, and the more times she sang, the clearer her words became. She didn't mind that Cirith or Hagrid would ask why she sang such a song they had never heard of, and in such a song she seemed to feel a sense of nostalgia for everyone she had ever lived in.
"daylight [daylight]
iMustWaitforthEsunrise [I have to wait for the sunrise]
wlife [I have to face a new life]
'tgivein [And I can't give in]
When the dawn comes,
[Tonight will also be a memory]
wdaywillbegin [A new day will also begin]"
Harry's small, floppy body gradually relaxed in her arms. His little hand quietly let go of him at some point, and he was lying in the warm embrace of Willow Spring, his snort was heavy, and his long eyelashes cast a dark shadow on his round and lovely little face—he fell asleep.
Liu Quan slowly lowered his voice, slowed down the tempo of the song, the voice became softer and the melody became slower and slower, and finally stopped singing. Harry didn't know it.
Liu Quan looked down at the little baby who was sleeping trustingly in her arms for the last time, and a fragile emotion suddenly rushed into her eyes.
Her nose was so sour that she didn't dare to look at him anymore, but she went to the door and handed him to Hagrid carefully, and whispered, "Ruber, be careful on the road, don't freeze him, don't alarm him, and don't touch him......"
Hearing her babbling instructions, the half-giant looked surprised, a little at a loss, glanced at her, probably seeing the tears in her eyes, he hurriedly nodded desperately, clumsily but very carefully took the sleeping little Harry, as if holding something extremely precious, tiptoed away.
Willow Springs, still standing in the doorway of this bedroom, looking out. In her field of vision, the hallway after night fell was unlit, and it seemed a little dim. The back of the big man Hagrid was like a small mountain, blocking all her view.
She stood motionless as he walked down the stairs very slowly, and the sound of him starting Siris' magically modified scooter could be heard from outside the door. At the end of her vision was the body of James Potter, lying at the top of the staircase.
How did you sing the song that wasn't finished?
kydays [smoky days]
rning [Corrupt and cold breath in the morning]
Hernightisover [The street lights go out, another night passes]
HerdayisDawning
Suddenly, a hoarse voice came from behind her.
"Fluorescent flickering. ”
A glimmer of light immediately lit up beside her.
Siris walked over to her, the tip of his wand glowing faintly like a firefly. The light stopped a little before James's body, and the Gryffindor prince was still lying quietly in the dark.
Cialis saw all this, of course, but he didn't seem to have the urge to immediately pounce on his best friend's body and weep bitterly, but stood quietly side by side with Willow Spring.
The two of them completely blocked the door to this bedroom. In front of them were their classmates and friends. Behind them was his wife, also their classmate. But now that both of them were dead, so young, so hastily gone, leaving only their young son alive in this world, narrowly escaped with a great deal of disaster, not knowing that one day in the future, this little child would still die voluntarily to save the entire wizarding world—war had torn apart all the good memories and cherished things of the people, such as life, such as friendship, such as trust, such as youth.
After I don't know how long it took, Siris whispered, "Pointed fork, I'm sorry......"
There was a tremor in his voice, and Liu Quan woke up almost immediately, and immediately turned his head to stare at him, only to see a slight surprise that his lips trembled slightly, his face was tense, and there were tears hidden in his eyes.
I don't know why, Liu Quan suddenly felt a little frightened. Her instincts told her that she shouldn't let him go on.
This strange instinct came too suddenly for no reason, but she decided to listen. So she interrupted his self-reproach almost immediately.
"Don't say that, Siris. ”
In an instant, Ciris Black cast his gaze on the woman beside him who had stopped him.
His eyes lit up terribly, like a blood-stained blade, intent on harming more people, including himself, regardless of it.
"No, you don't know, I ......," he said eagerly, as if at this moment there was only one person in the world who would listen to his explanation, he would tell the truth without hesitation.
Liu Quan could only bite the bullet and interrupt him very weakly.
"I ...... I don't want to hear it. Her voice lowered, and almost immediately she turned her face away, avoiding Siris' gaze and her gaze falling to the end of the hallway.
At that moment, Siris suddenly became agitated, and his voice rose a lot. He grabbed her wrist.
Why don't you want to listen......? I...... Don't you ...... either," he asked her in an incoherent voice, his face darkened with a deep haze.
Liu Quan lowered his head slightly, glanced at him holding her hand, but did not try to break free, but whispered, "You don't need to tell me anything, Siris." ”
Siris was stunned for a moment, and involuntarily let go of the hand that was gripping her wrist.
The "fluorescent flicker" spell he had just used was still working, and the tip of the wand he held in his right hand danced a glimmer of light, and when night fell completely into this dead house, only that glimmer of light flickered in the darkness, stubbornly refusing to extinguish, like the meager hope that burned in people's hearts after crossing one death after another.
Willow Springs, who took a few steps toward the top of the stairs, turned to look at Siris.
Their mutual classmates and friends lay on the ground behind her, never to wake up again. Liu Quan knew what a long and difficult parting they would go through after this glance. But this step still has to be taken out, towards the hopeless darkness and depression, but will eventually win the bright future, rushed through without hesitation.
Cialis Black was a major headache for her when she was at Hogwarts. At that time, in her opinion, he was like a spoiled rich son of the son, who had done countless pranks, and some things were quite hateful. But these bad feelings have never shaken the perception in her mind that "this person is still a good person through and through in the end", so at this moment of imminent separation, she still can't help but reveal a trace of kindness and trust that she wants to express to him.
His life was no luckier than that of James Potter, who had passed away now. It can even be said that his life has taken a sharp turn from this moment on, from the fresh clothes and angry horses of his youth to the bleak and hopeless and unruly to be gloomy and ashamed. He spent the rest of his life tormented him with guilt and wandering, until he passed through the veil of mystery and fell into a void that no one knew or reached, leaving no bones left. This sad ending, which he did not yet know, grabbed her heart and lungs, and made her exceed the attitude and proportions that she should have.
She curled her lips abruptly and smiled briefly at Siris.
"Cialis, James is gone...... But I'm sure he wants you to live. ”
Siris was shocked. The glimmer of light danced softly in his hand.
In fact, Liu Quan knew that he shouldn't have said that. This would make her position too obvious, and it would be unwise and unjustified for her to express her kindness so rashly until Siris's grievances have been cleared. Moreover, she knew that even without her own words, he would have endured more than ten years of humiliation in Azkaban, until one day he discovered the traces of that shameful traitor Peter Pettigrew and risked escaping from prison.
But she just couldn't help but say it.
Could this sentence be enough to reverse the next ten years of his life as a prisoner in Azkaban?
Of course, Liu Quan was worried that if he continued to speak, he would be immediately warned by the system bacteria that had become extremely alert since he arrived in this world, so he didn't dare to say too clearly. Fortunately, this sentence only seems to confirm the fact that there is a deep friendship between James Potter and Cialis Black in the original book, and the phylogenetic bacteria do not issue any warnings.
And Siris just stood at Harry's bedroom door, staring at her silently, as if he had never really understood her, carefully and carefully scanning every inch of her face with his own gaze.
Liu Quan suddenly felt that he could not stay in this house full of death and parting for another second.
She turned, carefully manulating around James Potter's body on the ground, and hurried downstairs and out of the house.
