Life at The Burrow is truly enjoyable, and every day is full of surprises. With Ron and Harry by his side, the long and boring homework no longer seemed unbearable for him. George and Fred often tinkered with crackling explosions in their bedrooms, and were hung from a tree outside the house almost every day by an enraged Mrs. Weasley. Parvati and Hermione have also been sending constant letters, telling him every day how bad her sister is and how uneducated she is, but in fact it always makes people feel that she is deliberately exposing her sister. The other always asked him if he had been out in trouble lately, as if she was more worried than anyone else about Brandy's trip to Manson Manor.

Even Self had learned to send letters with owls, which told him in strange grammar and unfamiliar words about the events of her first day in Diagon Alley: Professor Flitwick had once again scared Shirley when he picked her up, and her mother seemed to have come to think that wizards were very volatile in height, going up and down between four and one metre.

Life is incomparably fulfilling, and I am moving towards the beginning of school day by day in laughter. But Brandi became more and more melancholy...... Although it has not yet been revealed on the surface.

Only he knew what he was worried about—his mission wasn't done yet, and Wright's urn was lying flat in his suitcase. Dumbledore had asked him to return him to Manson Manor...... But until now he has not had a chance to move.

There was really no way around it, just thinking about asking Mrs. Weasley for leave to deliver ashes to someone in a lockdown area called Manson Manor...... Brandi shuddered. He could even emulate Mrs. Weasley's furious expression, who loved Brandi and Harry as if she were her own children.

Unless he can find a chance to go out alone, he definitely won't have a chance......

On the morning of that day, Brandi sat in the Weasley enclosure on the hill as usual, where Harry, Ron, Fred and George were practicing Quidditch. There were trees all around, and as long as they didn't fly too high, they would hardly be noticed by Muggles down the mountain. He was bored with some wizarding tricks, watching them toss half-baked apples back and forth in the air, or releasing the old Errol and then catching them back - he now knew why the owl had lost so much of its feathers.

They all co-authored it......

"Hey, Ron, have you noticed that Ginny seems to be particularly happy lately?" Fred tossed the apple to Ron, who scrambled to catch it, nearly crashing into an oak tree. "And she's been getting close to you and Harry lately, eh... I see she's running upstairs at every turn... What kind of trick did you use to buy our stupid sister? ”

"That said, I'm starting to be a little envious." George said with a sigh.

"Ahh Ron looked at the nearby tree trunk in horror, and he turned around and threw the apple back with a fierce cry of rage. "How can my brother's affair with my sister be called bribery!"

He also wanted to argue with his twin brothers, but he didn't expect Ginny's voice to come from below, and Ron quickly shut his mouth - she hurriedly ran from under the mountain, holding her knees with her hands, and said weakly.

"Brandy... Mom let you pass... It seems like... Yes, someone is looking for you......"

"Someone looking for me?" Brandi stood up from the grass in bewilderment, her wand still sparkling green, and Ginny looked at him enviously. "Did Mrs. Weasley say who it was?"

Ginny shook her head. "No...... But my mother was surprised when she asked me to come to you. ”

Brandi shrugged, waved his hand at the four friends in the sky, and followed Ginny back.

…………

"Eh?!!" Brandi let out an exclamation.

There was someone in the dining room that he hadn't thought of - he thought it was Hermione, or Sralf, or even Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore, but ......

Is it Luna?

Brandi blinked in disbelief as she looked at the girl in front of her. Mrs. Weasley brought a plate of snacks and placed it on the table.

"How could you...... No, why do you know that? Brandi stammered.

"I said I'd pick you up. There's no way to influence my search for you. Luna picked up a chocolate chip cookie and said in a distinctive tone. Her head shook slightly, and the pair of carrot-like earrings on her ears swayed up and down.

"Harassing flies?"

Brandi had already learned too much about strange magical creatures in his conversation with Luna, and he began to wonder if he needed to learn about magical creatures, otherwise he would not be able to keep up with Luna's jumping thoughts.

"It's a small flying insect that can't be seen by the naked eye, and they fly in your ears, burrow into your brain, and mess up your mind." Luna said in a trance, "If one day you suddenly don't know what to do, or suddenly do something that you wouldn't normally do, chances are they're doing something." ”

“…… Hey, it's not a pretty picture to think about. "Brainstorm a bunch of little bugs flying around in his head, and Brandi shuddered.

"Don't take Luna's word for it," Mrs. Weasley said to Brandi, distressed and amused, and it was clear that she didn't seem to trust Luna much. "She, like her father, every time Arthur and I went to Xenophilius, they always said something that was there and that was not. I'm guessing she must have mentioned some scimitar and bubble snots to you...... And those were just creatures that his father had imagined. ”

Luna shrugged, much to Brandi's surprise, not retorting to her. "So Brandi, are you going to sit at my house for a few days? I'd like to take you to see the pimple vines in my garden, and the freshwater colored ballfish in the creek. My father likes to cook rice with it, but the taste is a bit rough, and I really don't like it......"

She looked at Brandi earnestly, her pale eyes like a mist in them, making it impossible to see through her heart.

Pimple vines, freshwater ballfish, weasel and zombie bugs...... Could all of this stuff really be fake, as the Weasley lady said? He stared into Luna's eyes, faintly, with the urge to prove them.

Then he suddenly remembered what had been bothering him for more than a week, and he suddenly had an idea.

"Mrs. Weasley, I want to stay at Luna's house for a few days...... And if you could? ”

Mrs. Weasley was stunned for a moment, "Of course that's fine, but you'd better tell Ron and the others that you need to bring all your luggage over?" ”

"No, just stay for a few days...... Hmm," he thought for a moment, then abruptly changed his tune. "Well, I do have something to bring with me."

………………

"So, what are you borrowing an invisibility cloak for a friend's house?" He dragged Luna all the way up the hill and called Harry down as he was on the rise. Harry didn't have a problem lending him the Cloak, after all, the Cloak was still with him...... However, he was strongly curious about Brandy's purpose for borrowing the Cloak of Invisibility.

Harry looked at Brandy, and then at the mysterious girl next to him who was watching the goblins on the mountain wrestling, and the doubts on his face grew heavier. "Hey, aren't you planning to go to Manson Manor quietly by yourself while you're a guest at her house......"

Brandi, who was broken by the words, touched his nose in embarrassment, which was taken by Harry as a signal to admit the truth.

"Hey! It's not fair! Harry said angrily, "You actually do this kind of thing by yourself...... It's okay if you don't take me and Ron, didn't you tell Hermione that you must be with her? ”

"Huh? I'm going to tell him when I'm going to ......" Brandi glared in surprise.

"I obviously heard it that day in Diagon Alley, and you promised her that you would go with two people!" Harry looked at him gloatingly, "I'm going to tell you~ so you don't take us on an adventure." ”

Ron also fell from the sky and approached them curiously. "Huh? Another girl. She's your sister named Salph? ”

"Nonsense......" Brandi ignored Ron, his eyes rolled and he began to make excuses in a panic, as if he had thought of a good idea. I just said that I would bring another person with me, but、But I didn't say that I was going with Hermione~"

He subconsciously pointed to Luna, who was in a daze next to him, as he should be.

"Actually, I'm going to go with Luna, so I won't break the agreement."

Harry:..................

Ron:..................

Luna: "Huh...... Blondie? Where are you taking me? ”

The atmosphere suddenly became delicate.

Harry and Ron exchanged a strange look before Ron spoke, speaking in a slow, slow and low tone like a "funeral march." "Brandy, although it's true that you're not breaking your word, are you...... But have you ever thought that Hermione's fierce lioness would reason with you when she goes berserk? ”

It looked like it was looking at a dying cockroach, or an ant. Thinking through this key, Brandi's cold sweat flowed down in an instant. He hesitated, stammered under the pitiful gazes of the two men.

“… I may have just said the wrong thing with too much stress... Can I go back? ”

"What do you say......"

Harry pouted to the side, and Luna was looking at him expectantly, her eyes sparkling. "You said you were going to take me on an adventure? Blondie. ”

………… It's all over.

He fell limp on the soft grass with weak legs.

"No, don't... You can't die without help... O conscience of heaven and earth! ”

In the middle of the night, the muffled prayers of Ron and Harry could be heard in front of them.

"Condolences, Brandy."

"Go all the way...... Amen. ”
