"Emma, it's me." Ani wanders the streets of London with his phone in hand, and Hogwarts enters exam week, which only makes him relaxed.

Equally unleash was Bill Weasley, whose Transfiguration and Charms exams were conducted by Flitwick and Professors McGonagall for all grades, who ended the school year early.

Instead of waiting for his younger brothers at school, Bill rushed back to the Burrow early this morning, and when he said goodbye, Ani seemed to see the smile of his sister slave.

After seeing Bill leave, Aini travels from Hogsmeade to London, where technology is much more convenient than magic, such as communication.

Mobile phones began to make their mark in Britain in '85, and in just seven years, this thing is no longer a rarity.

Compared to the owl flying in the sky, just a few buttons can connect Aini to Africa in an instant.

"Thanks for calling me, I almost forgot that there was another boss."

When the phone was answered, a thick resentment accompanied by the roar of the motor rushed straight in, and anyone who was thrown into the barren land of Africa in mid-June could hardly have a good temper.

"The main thing is that the executive is so good, she makes the boss seem a little redundant."

"Come on, don't try to trick me with this set again." Ms. Capet said that your tricks of coaxing people are too old, and she doesn't eat them now.

"Well, is the situation in Britain okay?" Fortunately, Capet only habitually complained, she liked the feeling of being fully trusted, and she wouldn't get along with the boss who had to intervene in everything.

"Don't worry, Dumbledore can't make a big mess, how are you doing there? In the Ouagadou Valley? ”

"I was there yesterday, it's a mess, just last week the Muggle Prime Minister reshuffled the government, the chaos in the Ministry of Magic here is worse than that of Muggles, they can't do anything about the Rune Snake, all the resources are controlled by the seven wizarding families."

Obviously, in Capet's impression, Burkina Faso is really terrible, especially with the weather in June, even if there is a magic to cool down, it feels like a burst of heat is coming from the bottom of my heart.

"Good work. I'm going to have something going to happen here next year, and I'm going to have a lot of use for it, thank you, Emma. ”

"Boss, I still recommend that you leave the UK for the time being."

Aini smiled and rejected the female subordinate's kindness.

If the time is really urgent, maybe he will really choose to protect himself, but the intensity of the conflict is not high until Voldemort is truly resurrected.

Unless Voldemort himself is killed in a few years, Peter, Crouch Jr. and the like won't be in big trouble.

The only one with an overwhelming advantage in abilities will not pose a threat once the Runi Serpent is in place.

The thought of two huge vertical pupils appearing in front of Aini's eyes, the basilisk that spanned thousands of years, was really tempting.

"Suck!"

With a mouthful of overflowing saliva, Aini gave Capet a few more words of encouragement before hanging up.

It seems that I have to go to Africa for the summer vacation, why is it not enough before the vacation?

Picking up the alfalfa for the unicorns, Ani enters Diagon Alley through the Leaky Cauldron, where he must make a trip to Mrs. Witt.

It can't be helped, this is a happy worry that every child in the growth period has.

The trouble is that the clothes I liked before have become smaller and I can't wear them, and happiness is that I have a legitimate reason to buy new clothes!

Ani doesn't have any additional requirements for dress, and she can't dress up like Lockhart as a peacock with an open screen.

"Mrs. Witt, may I borrow the fireplace?" After the proprietress finished measuring the size, Aini was ready to leave.

"Of course, baby." Witt loved this child, who could be said to have grown up by himself, and almost all of Ani's clothes were made to order by Mrs. Witt from childhood to adulthood.

"Looks like you've had a good year at Hogwarts, and it's a pleasure to have a one-and-a-half-sized size of clothes that's bigger than my budget. Ani, I knew from a young age that you were going to grow into a great boy. ”

"Thank you, goodbye, Mrs. Witt." There was a blue pocket hanging from the fireplace, and Ani snatched a handful of Floo powder out of it after saying goodbye to Mrs. Witt......

"Wait a minute, Aini!" Seeing that he hadn't spilled the Floo powder, the proprietress hurriedly stopped him.

"Are you going back to Hogwarts?"

After receiving an affirmative reply from Ani, Mrs. Witt pulled out a pocket.

"Can you help me get this to the Hog's Head Bar? By the way, help me tell Aberforth that I won't take this order next year. ”

Aberforth makes a set of women's dresses from the Off-the-top garment store every year, and now there are almost 100 of them.

It seems that the deceased girl is still growing up in the hands of the two store managers, like a flower blooming, every time she waves the scissors, every time she pulls the silk thread, the proud flower blooms even more.

Under the skillful hands of the two master tailors, the flowers shook off the dewdrops, washed away the lead, and walked forward step by step every year.

From youth to maturity, wantonly showing the best years, those times that she should have, but suddenly break.

Compared to Mrs. Witt, the previous store manager was undoubtedly lucky, and Ariana's body grew in her hands, becoming more charming with each passing year.

But this year is already the 92nd dress made for Ariana by the Delphany Ready-to-Wear Store, and even wizards can only delay their own aging, but it can't stop it.

Thirty-five years ago, Mrs. Witt began to make unconsciously adjustments when sewing this particular gown.

It was like the natural growth of a girl, who had made her more mature and perfect, but since then, Ariana, who had grown up in the hands of the manager of the ready-to-wear store, began to grow old.

As she handed over the gown, Ariana seemed to walk past Mrs. Witt's eyes.

Her body was a little stiff, and her back looked even thinner when she left alone.

Mrs. Witt had long since dared not let her wear a backless gown, for fear of seeing Ariana's tarnished skin in her mind.

She was afraid to keep acting.

When she first took over the business in the hands of the old store manager, she just felt that it was new and interesting.

But today, she has invested too much energy in this girl, and she has already had an emotional resonance, and that girl has successfully entered her heart from the fantasy she once thought was ridiculous, and turned into an obsession.

She was afraid that one day Ariana would suddenly die from her "hands......

She wanted to end the business and put an end to Ariana's time.

But if it ends here, then it is not a kind of death without an ending.

Seeing Ani step into the fireplace, Mrs. Witt couldn't help but shout, "Forget those words, Ani. Just bring the dress to Aberforth, and you don't have to say anything to him. ”

The words fell, and Ani had disappeared into the fireplace.

Mrs. Witt didn't know if Ernie had heard her last words, and slid down onto the couch in a daze, as if for a moment she had lost all her strength, and just wanted to wander softly in the clouds.
