The news of Voldemort's resurrection smashed into Hogwarts like a hammer, shaking a group of young wizards who were not deeply involved in the world, completely overwhelmed.

They instinctively trusted Dumbledore, but they didn't want to believe it was true, so entangled that many stayed up at night.

The next morning, everyone gathered together to discuss the matter in a panic, as if the sky had fallen.

Rove, who was at the center of the whirlpool of public opinion, was not affected too much, and after he ate breakfast with an undiminished appetite, he carried a black suitcase, joined Shirley and Hermione, and walked towards the castle together.

As they arrived in the foyer, they were stopped by a group of students—all of them Durmstrang students—who had come to see them off.

"Rove, I'm graduating soon." In the first round of the Triwizard Tournament, Alyssa Boy, who was saved by Rove, said in not very fluent English:

"I'm going to be a journalist and help you spread the word about Voldemort's resurrection in Germany."

"Thank you, Alyssa." Rove stretched out a hand and smiled, "I'm looking forward to your article." ”

Alyssa Boe excitedly shook Rove's hand and reluctantly let it go.

Krum also walked over and said in a deep voice:

"Mr. Scamander, I don't know how to thank you for saving my life twice.

With the Quidditch European Championship qualifiers in Bulgaria and Portugal in July, I will also be speaking out on behalf of Great Britain through press conferences. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Krum." Rove nodded and said, "I also hope that you can get good results in the competition." ”

Rove wanted to say "the future is yours" to Krum, but it dawned on him that it would take 20 years for Bulgaria to win the Quidditch World Cup.

He silently took the blessing back again.

Before leaving, Krum hesitated, but still looked at Hermione, and said:

"Miss Granger, I'...... Can I tell you a few words? ”

Hermione was chatting with Shirley about her summer vacation travel plans, when she saw an old face coming over, and she was so frightened that she took a half step back and said:

"Oh...... Absolutely, just say it here. ”

"Do you have time for the summer vacation?" Krum plucked up his courage and asked, "I...... I would like to invite you to Bulgaria and watch my Quidditch matches. ”

Hearing Krum's words, the students in the foyer all looked at Hermione.

Last Christmas, there was news that Krum took the initiative to invite Hermione to the ball, and many people didn't believe it at the time, but looking at this posture, there is a high probability that it is true.

Hermione was a little embarrassed by everyone's staring, her face flushed slightly, and she quietly glanced at Rove out of the corner of her eye, and then shook her head:

"I'm sorry, but I don't like Quidditch."

“……”

Such a simple and straightforward refusal devastated Krum, and his already dark and thin face looked a little old, and then walked away dejectedly.

Many of the students laughed, and it seemed that even internationally renowned football stars were not liked by all girls.

At this moment, Madame Maxim strode up, and she pressed Rove's shoulders like a chick, almost crushing him to the ground.

"Hey, Rove, I just saw the rune horses, all of them are fat and strong, you are really good, thank you."

"It's a small thing." Rove said with difficulty: "Madame Maxim, you don't have to be polite to me. ”

Over the course of the year, he spent a lot of Galleons feeding Rune Horses pure ale, but he also took the opportunity to breed them and get quite a few foals.

Maxim may earn, but Rove definitely doesn't lose!

"And you." Maxim looked at Fleur again, and said with a smirk:

"Three days later, we set off here at eight o'clock.

You and your sister don't go crazy at Rove's house and forget about it, and then I'll leave you two behind and go back to France with the rest of the students. ”

"No, Madame Maxim." Fleur graciously owes a debt.

Gabrielle, who had already found the carriage, waved vigorously and shouted:

"Sister, Ralf, hurry up, you won't be able to catch the Hogwarts Express in a while."

After bidding farewell to Madame Maxim, several men quickly climbed into the carriage, the door slammed shut, and a moment later, with a violent jolt, the carriage set off along the path to Hogsmeade.

When we arrived at Hogsmeade Station, a steaming red train had stopped next to the platform.

Rove boarded the train and walked down the hallway, many of the students huddled up to the window, staring at him and whispering and occasionally hearing the words "mystery man" and "death eater".

Everyone wanted to know the details of the night of the Dark Lord's resurrection, but for a moment no one dared to come forward and ask Rove.

Gabrielle, who was running at the front, finally found an empty carriage, she waved her hand, and several people walked over and sat down in the carriage.

With a "dirty" sound, the train started to start and headed for London, and they also talked about their plans for the summer vacation.

"I'm going on a trip to Italy with my dad and mom." Hermione, sitting by the window, hugging the ginger Crook Mountain, looked at Rove and Shirley and asked expectantly:

"Are you two going together?"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to go." Rove shook his head and said, "Last night, Dumbledore approached me and asked me to attend the International Confederation of Wizards Congress in the summer. ”

"Didn't you go last year?" Hermione was confused.

"Last year was unofficial." Rove explained: "I was attacked by the Saints on the floating dragon ship, and as a witness, I was called to report the situation on an ad hoc basis. ”

"This year is an official attendance. However, the content is probably still related to the saints. ”

His destination last year was Newmengard, where he joined the International Federation of Wizards, and it was just an accident.

Holding a sparkling pink coconut sorbet, Gabrielle teased Crookshank Hill in Hermione's arms while curious, "Where is the location?" ”

"Reykjavik, Iceland."

"Iceland." Hermione was a little disappointed. "That's a long way from Italy."

"Will Professor Dumbledore mention Voldemort's resurrection at the conference?" Shirley suddenly asked, "And characterize this as a fact." ”

"Yes." Rove nodded, "Fudge will definitely prevent this from happening, though." ”

"How could he stop it?" Hermione wondered, "Professor Dumbledore is the president of the International Council of Wizards. ”

"But don't forget, Dumbledore is also the representative of the United Kingdom." Rove shrugged and said:

"If Dumbledore is removed from his position as a representative by Fudge, he will naturally not be qualified to serve as the president of the Federation again."

Generally speaking, this kind of thing will not happen, after all, the president of the International Federation of Wizards has a lot of say, which is beneficial to his country.

No Minister of Magic would cause chaos for his own president.

But now things are different, and of course Fudge wants to wreak havoc and pull Dumbledore down.

When the girls heard Rove's words, they fell silent for a while.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little solemn, Rove comforted: "You don't have to worry too much, even if Dumbledore is not the representative and president, he can still influence the representatives of other countries to speak for him." ”

Rove gave Gabrielle a look, and the little girl immediately understood, and said in a lively atmosphere:

"Stop talking about these unhappy things, let's play Thunderbolt Blast."

At Gabrielle's urging, the group played Thunderbolt and didn't stop until the cart that delivered lunch arrived.

However, instead of buying snacks from the cart, they got into his black suitcase at Rove's suggestion and headed to the lake for a picnic.

The division of labor among the five is also very simple and clear:

Shirley goes to the cold storage to fetch all kinds of ingredients, Hermione takes care of the grill and chops firewood, and Fleur takes Gabrielle to set up the picnic area.

And Rove, with his beloved fishing rod, came to the fishing spot where he frequented, intending to catch a few plump silver trout for the girls to try.

In the midst of a dense reed, a wooden overhead ferry with a length of several meters out of the water was built, and Rove sat on it, and after making the nest, he gently shook the hook, lay down on his back, and waited quietly for the fish to take the bait.

I don't know how long later, I heard the sound of horses' hooves trampling.

Nemelia slowly walked up to Rove's side, sat down with her hoof, she was silent for a long time, and finally spoke:

"I'm getting out of here."

Rove didn't open his eyes, but asked softly, "Go back to the centaur tribe to seek revenge on Bane?" ”

"Yes."

"Aren't you going to die alone?" Rove opened his eyes, looked at Namelia and said:

"And the way you are now, even if you find out where Bane is alone, are you sure you can kill him?"

In the past, although Namelia did not appear to be strong, she was full of heroism, and she knew that her body was full of strength at a glance.

Now...... In addition to the still heavy chest, the body is a lot thinner than half a year ago.

"What if you can't kill it?" Nemelia's eyes were filled with sadness.

"Look at me now, every few hours, I have to take the blood of a unicorn, otherwise my whole body will tremble, and I won't even have the strength to walk."

Nemelia's voice trembled, and there was a hint of despair or anger in it, which even she didn't know.

"It's better to die than to live like this, it's better to take revenge early, even if you die, isn't it a relief!"

Rove fell silent.

Half a year ago, Nymelia was seriously injured, and in order to save her, he gave her the blood of a unicorn to survive.

But the unicorn is a pure life, and if you take its blood, you will be cursed and become half-dead.

Rove sat up, looked at the lake, and suddenly asked, "Have you seen Mysera?" ”

"That mermaid in the lake?"

"Yes, Mysela is a golden two-tailed mermaid with a disease called gray scale." Rove said softly:

"Her scales would slowly turn gray, be hard as stone to the touch, cover her whole body, and die...... She's always looking for a solution. ”

Nymelia didn't know why the boy was saying this, but she still asked, "Did you find it?" ”

"Haven't found it yet, but know where to fix it."

"Where?"

"Avalon...... Have you heard of it? ”

Nemelia narrowed her eyes, a little uncertain, "The legendary island? ”

"Legends come from history, but they are too old and few people have found them, so they will slowly become legends." "But the island really exists." ”

He didn't believe it before, but Ravenclaw and Grindelwald had been to Avalon, so he had to believe it.

After a pause, Rove continued, "On that island, there is a spring that can unravel all curses—not just the Grey Scales, but also the curse of the unicorn blood on your body. ”

Nemelia's breathing suddenly became rapid. "Where's that island?"

"North Sea." Rove looked at Nymeria and said, "Although I know the approximate location, there is magic near the island, and not everyone can find it. ”

Namelia was disappointed, she knew it was so, and good luck never came her way.

Rov sat quietly in front of Nymeria, reached out and pressed her shoulder, and said:

"This summer, I'm going to Iceland, passing through the North Sea, and you and Mishela can go together in search of Avalon.

In short, since there is hope, don't give up your life so easily. ”

Neumelia looked at Rove distractedly, his blue eyes staring at her, sad but encouraging, and she murmured:

"You...... Who exactly is it? ”

"Scamander." Rove laughed, "Like my grandfather, he was a kind magizoologist. ”

Namelia looked at the young man, he was obviously not tall, and he was still sitting there, but he was like a behemoth standing up, and people couldn't help but look up.

Somehow, the fear in Namelia's heart had disappeared without a trace, and she whispered to him:

"Thank you, Scamander."

After Namelia left, Shirley, who was quietly waiting for the end of their conversation not far away, came over and asked softly:

"Did you catch a fish?"

"Not yet." Rove blinked, shook the pot, and said, "Nymeria scared my fish away." ”

Shirley smiled, then put away her smile and asked in a low voice, "Does she want to go back to the Forbidden Forest and go to Bane for revenge?" ”

"Well, but I persuaded you to go back." Rove stood up, sighed softly and said:

"I told her that Summer could go with Mysera to find Avalon."

The ponytailed girl stretched out her hand, gently patted the dust off Rove's clothes, and asked:

"You'll help too, right?"

Rove nodded, sighed, "Anyway, they're all friends, you can't really see death without help, especially Nemelia, or the unicorn blood I gave her." ”

Shirley let out a well-behaved oh and suddenly said, "I'll go with you!" ”

"Of course you're going with me." Rov shaved the beautiful face of the ponytail girl with his fingers, and said with a smile:

"Abbot Agatha has already given you to me, and your bed is probably gone, even if you go back to the convent, there is no place to sleep."

"But it can be dangerous." He added.

Shirley threw herself into Ralve's arms, put her arms around his neck, and said softly, "I'm not afraid!" ”

With that, he stood on his heels and wanted to kiss Rove.

Rove suddenly said, "No, not now." ”

The ponytail girl realized something, turned her head to look, and saw that Gabrielle had come without knowing when, and was standing in the distance, looking at the two of them intently.

The two quickly separated, and Rov coughed his throat and asked, "Is there something wrong, Gabrielle?" ”

Gabrielle puffed out her cheeks and said, "Brother, sister and Hermione said that the barbecue grill and tablecloth have been set up, waiting for you to go back to the barbecue." ”

Rove nodded and said, "You go back first, Shirley and I are ...... Fishing, right back. ”

Gabrielle pursed her lips and snorted:

"You don't want to fish, you want to kiss her when I'm gone...... On the night of the game, you both kissed in the maze, and I saw it in the magic curtain. ”

Rove couldn't help but be stunned and looked down at Shirley. Shirley had an embarrassed look on her face.

However, the ponytailed girl quickly turned around, and she looked at Gabrielle with a blushing face, and did not hide it, nor did she become angry, but generously admitted:

"Gabrielle, you're right, we both just want to kiss because I like Rove and he likes me too......"

Rove laughed, and he hugged Shirley back into his arms, wrapped one hand around her waist, wrapped the other arm around her shoulder, and leaned down to kiss her deeply.

The shadows of the two were reflected in the lake, rippling like waves in the sun.
