Obviously, the little girl in red is the werewolf's 10-year-old daughter.

Clara Lemore.

She was wearing a dirty red dress, with many scratches on it, her hair was messy, and her ears were slightly pointed, which were shaking slightly, and she seemed to be able to hear the sound of "fireworks" blooming in the distance.

But only after watching it for a while.

Her gaze returned to her frail father and the strange but gentle Ringo, with a surging sadness.

- She already knows the "truth".

His father is about to die, and the boy in front of him, who is not much older than himself, is the object entrusted by his father.

Maybe it's because of the hardships I encountered since childhood.

So even if she was sad, she didn't shed tears, but just held her father's hand harder.

"Mr. Lemore." Ringo suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of father and daughter, "Let's clear the two." ”

The werewolf Lemo nodded slightly: "Yes, the two are clear." ”

"How much time do you think you have left?"

"Tomorrow night at most."

"Very well, our deal is still ongoing, but tonight, you and Clara don't want to be bothered by me as an outsider, right?" Ringo waved his hand at a bluestone slab next to him, and a pile of food and a doll appeared on it, "Late Christmas presents and dinner, enjoy." ”

Let's talk about it.

He took another deep look at the father and daughter, and then rode up into the sky on a broomstick.

"Daddy......" Clara the wolf girl looked at the stuffed animal with some interest, but quickly returned to Lemore, "You really ......"

"I'm really dying." Lemo picked up the stuffed animal and handed it to his daughter, "Don't be sad, Clara, this is the fate of our werewolves, compared to those werewolves who died in various accidents, I should have died with the blood of a unicorn, and I am very satisfied to see you again before I die." ”

Father and daughter sit on a bluestone slab.

Under the moonlight.

In the snow.

Snuggled quietly, but a slight sobbing sound gradually came from the girl's throat.

Lemo didn't seem to hear it.

Continue to talk to yourself:

"When I die, bury me with your mother, and then you continue to wait here, this food should be enough for you for a few days, and then Ringo Shelby will come to you, you have to be loyal to him, become his subordinate, do things for him, he takes good care of his subordinates, you will definitely live better than following me, as long as you are loyal, there will definitely be no shortage of food and drink, there will be wolf poison potions during the full moon, and you may also be erased the hunt warrant, and even go to magic school, learn magic spells, and look like a beautiful big girl like your mother, Then find a husband who will accept you, get married, have children......"

……

The whistling wind blew.

Ringo rode an arrow-like broomstick around a large bend and swept across the Black Lake, splitting the unfrozen Black Lake with a long rift, but he soon flew to the shore and landed on the cliff stairs.

And then the next moment.

An exclamation came from the mouth of the little wizard not far away: "Oh! Merlin's beard, who did I see? Ringo Shelby? ”

The call is like a stone falling into water.

Ripples quickly rippled throughout the entrance hall of the auditorium.

The little wizards looked at it one after another:

"It's really Shelby!"

"He's not dead?"

"Great, Ringo isn't dead, he's back on campus, go tell the professor!"

"He's riding a broomstick?"

"So much ash on your face? What did you do? Shouldn't it really be like "Singing the Opposite" said, getting lost in travel, right? ”

"Hiss......"

Fortunately, there weren't many little wizards in the entrance hall and the cliff staircase.

Ringo was not contained.

I went straight into the auditorium.

Then he caused an even greater sensation in the auditorium - all the people who were eating put down their utensils and looked at the people they thought were dead in amazement, and then the next moment, quite a few people got up and came over, babbling and asking questions, wanting to take a bite of a fresh, hot melon.

It's a pity that they were a step late.

Long before they came around, Penelope, who was close to the entrance hall because he was a senior student, stood up first, hugged Ringo, and then used the prefect's majesty to scold: "Get out of the way, let Ringo sit down and talk!" ”

said.

She refused to allow anyone to approach.

Ringo, who was holding a dusty face, walked over to his place and sat down, and cast a cleansing spell on Ringo.

"Ringo!" Hermione waited for the little lion to finally squeeze in, "What have you been doing these days?" ”

"Yes! Do you know you're late? There are even newspapers that say you're ......"

"What do you say about me?" Ringo drank the hot cocoa handed by Penelope and looked at everyone with a blank expression, "Sorry, I know it's late, well, it's a long story, you better tell me what's going on first......"

Hermione immediately rushed ahead of everyone and said, "You didn't come on the first day of school, the professors looked for you all night, and I heard that Professor McGonagall went to your house to look for you, but she still couldn't find ......"

She speaks very quickly.

But the logic was clear, and it soon made Ringo "understand" what had happened in the past few days.

After listening.

Ringo said with an embarrassed face: "I see...... I'm so sorry, I originally wanted to fly all the way in a broomstick, but I didn't expect to go in the wrong direction and waste a few days......"

"Is it really going to school on a broomstick? "Singing and Singing" is making up nonsense, but it is the truth? Ron let out an exclamation, "But thank goodness you're okay, we were all worried about dying the other day, Hermione and Harry were messing around the campus all day......"

"Thank you." Ringo thanked him, then looked at Ron again, "Ron, did you receive the money?" ”

"Got it, I bought a new wand, and my mom came back early and took me to Diagon Alley to buy it!" Ron was happy at first, but soon cried again, "It's a pity that she took all the extra money, saying that it was set aside for the start-up capital of my marriage in the future......"

As soon as I said that.

The little wizards next to them all showed sympathetic and sympathetic looks.

Seem......

Same world, same kind of mom!

However, they didn't empathize for long, and were interrupted by McGonagall, who hurried over, only to see that although the serious professor had a straight face, the moment she saw Ringo, she was obviously relieved, she walked through the crowd, looked at Ringo seriously for a moment before saying: "Shelby, come with me, you are four days late, there must be a lot of things to clarify." ”

"Okay professor." Ringo got up in shame and followed.

However, before getting up, he patted the back of Penelo's hand holding his clothes as a comfort, and then followed McGonagall to the principal's office.

Inside sat the other three Headmasters, as well as Dumbledore.

As soon as I entered.

The three deans spoke in unison:

"Mr. Shelby, what's going on? Where have you been these days? ”

"Oh, Shelby, you're safe!"

"Ringo Shelby, when did you think that being praised as a genius could trample on the school rules? Or are you ready to be confined? ”

Dumbledore didn't say a word.

But there was also a hint of seriousness on his usually kind face, and he looked at Ringo seriously, not knowing what he was observing.

And Ringo ......

seems to know that he is in the wrong, anyway, in the face of the inquiries of several professors, there has always been a trace of apology on his face: "I'm sorry professors, I didn't expect that I would be late and cause such a big trouble, I'm sorry...... I wanted to try to come to school on a broomstick, so I left two days early, but I ......"

"Just what?" Snape snorted.

"It's just that it's going in the wrong direction, so much so that it's a few days wasted." Ringo pulled out a map of the United Kingdom from his backpack with the route drawn on it, "first it was crooked to Liverpool, then I redirected to Newscal, and finally I made a few more adjustments before returning to school." ”

Hear Ringo's explanation.

The professors were thoughtful.

Dumbledore also nodded slightly: "It seems to make sense, but apparently you ignored the consequences of being reckless, and your classmates have already told you what happened recently?" ”

"I told you."

"You need to be confined." McGonagall said, "It's a tough confinement. ”

Ringo nodded in annoyance, "I'm willing to accept the punishment." ”

"Very well, then you can leave, and we'll talk to you about a specific punishment......" McGonagall prepared to leave with Ringo.

But halfway through.

A large, fiery red bird suddenly appeared indoors, let out a low chirp, and the next moment, it landed on the bird's stand and threw a piece of parchment in front of Dumbledore.

Dumbledore picked it up and looked at it.

His face changed suddenly.

Without waiting for the professor next to him to ask the reason, he raised his head and said, "Minerva, don't go yet, I still have something to ask Shelby." ”

"What's wrong?" McGonagall and Ringozy turned back.

"Just before Shelby returned to school, there was an explosion in the Bol family's safe house, and from the initial analysis report, the Bol family was all killed." Dumbledore looked into Ringo's eyes.

And Ringo's eyes were blank.

On the contrary, McGonagall next to her quickly reacted: "How is it possible? Albus, do you suspect it was the Bor family that Shelby murdered? No way! No way! He's only so young, but there are four adults in the Bor family......"

As soon as this remark came out.

The blankness in Ringo's eyes turned to abruptness.

But soon it turned into horror again, and then nodded and said, "Yes, no, it's not me...... I've never heard of the Bor family before. ”

Small kiosk

"I'm sure you've heard of it, Shelby." Snape reminded, "Lucien Bol, who was disfigured by you, is a member of the Bol family, and it looks like he's dead too, just before you go back to school, isn't it?" You've been missing for a few days, what are you doing? No one knows but you, but you've just returned to school, and the Bor family, who can be said to be your enemies, has been blown up. ”

"I really didn't do it!" Ringo retorted loudly, "Why do you think that I killed them because of a coincidence? Then when you are not in school, people are dying all the time in this world, are you the ones who killed......"

"Shelby." Dumbledore interrupted Ringo gently, "You're too tired and need a break, if you don't mind, just sleep in my office, don't be afraid, kid, if it's not you, please trust the professors to help you clear your name." ”

"Snape wants to frame me......" Ringo glared at Snape hostilely.

"He won't, no professor would harm his students." Dumbledore walked up to Ringo, "Trust me, kid, when you get some sleep, it will all pass......"
