Chapter 252: Magic Mirror

If you change Ron at this time to George and Fred who want to go to the North Tower to hunt for treasures in their dreams, no matter how bizarre the experience is, the first reaction of the two must be excitement and excitement.

Instead, it was Ron.

Well

Now in the corridor made of bricks and stones, his mood can be described as panicked, his whole body can't stop trembling, and after a long while, he muttered to himself:

"Where is this?"

"Can someone save me?"

"Help! Help me! ”

When Ron called for help, there was already a few more weepings in his voice.

After a few minutes of shouting, Ron, who had not received a response, knelt on the cold ground, tears burst out of his eyes, and began to cry.

But there is no problem that crying can solve.

I don't know how long I cried, Ron, who stretched out his sleeve to wipe away the tears, realized this, got up and rubbed his legs that were numb from kneeling, and only mustered up the courage to walk down the corridor.

Then, slowly walking to the first fork in the hallway, Ron momentarily remembered the fear of being dominated by the labyrinth, and couldn't help but hesitate to choose the path forward.

Ultimately.

Ron decided to choose the way forward in the most scientific way possible.

That is

Throw your shoes.

However, this time, Lady Luck did not have a crush on Ron, who had always been unlucky, and walked all the way in the direction of the tip of his shoe, and soon he came to a dead end.

Looking at the mirror placed at the end of the road, reflecting himself alone, Ron only felt that his nose was sour, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red again.

Then, just as Ron's first tears flowed down his cheeks, without making any movement himself, he reached out and wiped his cheeks in the mirror, and then asked with a smile:

"Hey, little one, are you in trouble?"

"What?"

"Mine in the mirror actually moves?!"

"Hell!"

When the sound in the mirror echoed in Ron's ears, how could he ask for help from himself in the mirror?

I was almost scared to pee on the spot, okay?!

It's a pity that at this time, no matter how much Ron wanted to escape, the magic that emerged from the mirror forcibly imprisoned him in place.

Meanwhile.

Ron, who was originally reflected in the mirror, suddenly became a kind old man who looked a little similar to Galio, looked at Ron and continued to smile and said:

"Little one, did you just scare you? I'm sorry, but I don't really have any ill intentions, I just want to help you. ”

"Who are you?"

Ron asked in a panic, "Is it a ghost living in a mirror?" ”

"Ghosts? Oh no, I'm not. ”

The old man in the mirror shook his head and said, "I am the mirror you see, the mirror you see is me, to be precise, I am a creature created by Mr. Smith with magic, you can call me Mir directly." ”

"Mimere?"

"What a strange name"

It may be that he found that the old man in the mirror really has no malice, or it may be that he wants to get out of here as soon as possible, Ron took a few deep breaths to calm down his emotions, and asked urgently:

"Mr. Mill, may I ask why I am here? Where is this? ”

"Here? It should be the north tower of the castle! ”

Mir muttered for a moment, "As for why you're here, I don't know. ”

"That's right!"

As she spoke, Mir seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked:

"Little one, what's your name, is it a descendant of Mr. Smith? If so, I think I can give you a nice gift! ”

"Uh, I'm sorry, my name is Ron Weasley, and I've been invited here by Mr. Quinn."

Ron first shook his head in reply, and then asked curiously:

"Mr. Mir, what are you talking about as a gift? Could it be the treasure left behind by Mr. Smith? ”

"You guessed it right, it's indeed a treasure left behind by Mr. Smith."

Mir sighed deeply and said, "Unfortunately, Mr. Smith told me that I must personally hand over that treasure to his descendants, otherwise"

"How else?" Ron's eyes lit up and he asked expectantly.

"Otherwise!"

Mill looked at Ron and said, "It might be a good idea to give it to you, after all, I personally think that gift is very suitable for you, and you are one of the few young wizards with extraordinary talents!" ”

Suddenly receiving a high evaluation from a stranger, the young and ignorant Ron couldn't help but blush with excitement, and really wanted to move this mirror to George and Fred, who were always playing tricks on him, so that they could hear for themselves what people praised him.

And, when a treasure is close at hand, who can pat their chest and promise that they don't want to see what the treasure is?

Ron certainly couldn't.

Thereupon.

Ron, who faced Mill again, proposed, "Mr. Mill, I am friends with Galen, Lux, Kyle, and Kevin of the Smith family, since Mr. Smith who created you said that he would give the treasure to his descendants, why don't you let me do it for you?" ”

Mir glanced at Ron suspiciously, and said suspiciously: "Little one, if I give you the treasure, are you sure you can suppress the greed in your heart and transfer the treasure to the descendants of the Smith family?" ”

"You know, the treasure left behind by Mr. Smith is extremely precious, and obtaining it can directly make one a great wizard!"

Ron nodded vigorously and said, "I'm sure!" ”

"That's good!"

Seeing Ron's sworn appearance, Mil shook his head and smiled, and replied:

"Little one, as much as I believe you are an honest child, I must test you before I hand over the treasure to you!"

As soon as the words fell.

Mill didn't give Ron any time to prepare.

The next second.

"Buzz"

Part of the magic that permeated from the mirror was to involve Ron in the mirror world, heralding the official beginning of the trials that Mir had mentioned, all of which were about integrity.

And is Ron a man of integrity?

The answer is undoubtedly yes.

He just wanted to know what the treasure left by Smith's ancestors was, and he really didn't have any intention of coveting the treasure privately.

Moreover, Ron, who is located in the mirror world, knows that it is a test, and is bound to choose the most correct one among the many answers provided by Mir.

So, with Mill's three rounds of testing over, Ron was able to obtain the treasure that Smith's ancestors had deposited here.

It's just that Ron is more or less unacceptable to it

The treasure left behind by Smith's ancestors was nothing but the mirror where Mill was.

Later.

Watching the mirror, which was originally three meters high, slowly shrink and become a volume that he could just hold, the corners of Ron's mouth twitched slightly, and he still couldn't help asking:

"Mr. Mill, is the treasure that Mr. Smith left behind actually you?"

"Of course."

Mir's voice came out of the mirror, and he said undeniably, "Ron, don't you think I'm not worthy of being Mr. Smith's treasure?" ”

"No, no."

Ron hurriedly shook his head and said:

"I just wanted to say, Mr. Mill, how exactly did you make the man who owned you a great wizard?"

"You want to try it?"

Mir first asked rhetorically, and then let out a burst of smug laughter, and affirmed:

"Ron, then let you"

"Give it a try!"
