Chapter 549: Sunset

It's getting dark.

The sun was approaching the sea level in the distance, and the sky was red, as if it were on fire.

Waves rush towards the shore, and the sparkling sea, along with the blue sky and the white clouds that wander between the blue sky, is dyed red by the afterglow of the setting sun.

A few seagulls soared freely in the blue sky, Muggle tourists frolicked in the sea and on the beach, bathing in the sand or water, and even two Muggles were seen smiling happily in their beautiful wedding dresses and as if they were taking wedding photos.

Everything in front of me is beautiful and happy.

Except for the one standing on the beach, a lonely girl.

Astoria Greengrass stood in the light of the setting sun, her hands clutching the hem of her skirt and looking up into the distance. There was no joy in her face, and she bit her lip from time to time.

It was the second day she and her sister had arrived in Athens, and they hadn't heard anything from Jon Hart since they left the woods.

Yesterday in Athens were accompanied by Mrs. Weasley, the Auror named Tonks, and the Weasley siblings. But today, they suddenly said that the holiday was temporarily canceled, and then the group left Athens in a hurry, leaving only the Greengrass sisters here.

Of course, before leaving, they also asked the sisters if they would leave together, but Astoria refused.

Because Astoria was a little worried, and despite her sister's repeated reassurances, she was still worried.

Before leaving the woods yesterday at noon, Jon and Harry Potter had mysteriously "disappeared".

Coupled with the members of the Order of the Phoenix, they insisted on bringing the two sisters to safety...... No matter how stupid Astoria was, she knew something unexpected must have happened.

But she still came to Athens because she didn't want to hold Jon back, and she didn't want him to worry about herself.

But after waiting for more than thirty hours in this seaside city...... She didn't receive any news, and she began to panic.

Where the hell did Jon go?

Will he be in danger?

Should I have stayed yesterday and gone to him together?

Astoria only feels that right now, her heart is very chaotic, very chaotic......

There was a sound of soft footsteps coming from behind him.

After being together for so many years, she could guess who was behind her, even from the sound of footsteps.

"Sister?" she whispered.

"Don't look at it. Daphne Greengrass hugged her behind her: "It's getting late." Let's go back to dinner, it is said that there is some of the best local seafood tonight. ”

"I'm sorry. Astoria smiled weakly, "I don't have much appetite......"

"Don't worry anymore. Daphne persuaded softly: "There will be nothing wrong, between you, you have passed such a hard life before, let alone now!"

"I want to wait......" Astoria whispered.

"Why are you so disobedient!" Daphne raised her voice slightly, "Even if we have to wait, we can wait until we finish eating, and then-"

Daphne's voice stopped abruptly in an instant.

Because her sister suddenly turned around and gently stroked the corners of her eyes with her little hands.

"What are you doing...... Daphne said, trembling.

"Sister, you're worried too. Astoria smiled a little reluctantly and looked into Daphne's eyes: "Isn't it?

"This ...... I...... No......" Daphne said incoherently, "it's just ...... Eyes just got into the sand......"

The two sisters looked at each other face to face, speechless.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from not far away—

"Have you seen two girls, both of them have blonde hair, English, about seventeen or eighteen years old......"

"It's Jon!" Astoria's previously sad face suddenly turned happy.

All unpleasant things were left behind by her at this moment.

......

Jon Hart had only arrived in the ancient city of Athens a few minutes earlier.

It's not that he came late on purpose, but it's-

The aftermath after killing Voldemort was even more troublesome than he had imagined.

Although he was already prepared and even carried a tent with him.

But after all, he was in a foreign country and killed another wizard with his own hands...... Even a notorious dark wizard is a rather important accident that needs to be proven to the local Ministry of Magic.

Fortunately, the headmaster of Hogwarts is quite famous, and several wizards of the Order of the Phoenix are still prestigious enough in Europe.

After more than thirty hours, he finally completed all the proofs.

Ten minutes earlier, in Tirana, the capital of Albania, he had hurried to Athens after completing the last formalities.

He went to the Muggle inn where Astoria and Daphne were staying (they had booked it in advance), only to be disappointed.

The innkeeper told him that the two English girls had gone out in the afternoon and had never returned.

Worried, Jon left a letter and began searching the Greengrass sisters.

All the way when he found the seaside -

A soft body suddenly "attacked" from behind and hugged him tightly.

"Huh?" Jon froze.

"Jon ......" Immediately after, Astoria's voice came from behind him: "You're late again......"

Jon Hart turned, a smile on his face, and hugged the girl tightly in his arms.

"This is the last time. He said solemnly, "I swear, this must be the last time." ”

Indeed, Voldemort is dead, the real threat to the wizarding world is gone, and the promise made to Albus Dumbledore has been fulfilled.

Now, there is nothing that he values more than the girl in his arms.

"You're lying!" Astoria whispered, burying her head in his arms.

"There is absolutely no ......"

"Lie!"

"There really is no ......"

"What about the hook?"

"Okay!"

Two hands stretched out, and then the two little fingers wrapped around each other, silently intertwined.

"I say you, is that enough?" said Daphne Greengrass, with a slight cough, and then said with some inappropriateness.

"My dear sister, now that the one you are waiting for has arrived, can you go to supper?" she said calmly.

Astoria hid behind Jon, her cheeks flushed with shame.

"Okay......" she murmured in a small, mosquito-like voice.
