Hogwarts Melon Eater - Chapter 188
Lupin was silent for a while, and looked at the skeleton’s empty eye sockets, but he still couldn’t speak first, and the cheerful voice of the skeleton echoed in the cell for a while, “Hello, friend! It’s been a while since no one has come here– “
“But you’re not a normal person! I saw you change from a wolf to a person—unbelievable!” The skeleton covered his mouth exaggeratedly, “I’ve never come into close contact with a creature like you! You can transform me again. Have a look?”
I’ve never seen such a lively skeleton before, and Lupin groaned inwardly, “I can’t just transform, it’s a dangerous thing…and, who are you?”
“Disappointing—” the skeleton shouted, but still introduced himself, “As you can see, I’m a skeleton, I used to be called Barry, but the person who called me has forgotten me, so the name doesn’t exist. It makes sense, just call me a skeleton.”
“I took part in the wizard’s experiment to gain eternal life—” The skeleton stood up, bone-to-bone fit, scuffed and rattled, and it twisted awkwardly.
“But I also have to live here in this form forever, I can’t die if I want to, but compared to the guy next to me, I’m much luckier…” The skeleton pointed to the skeleton next to him, “He and I It’s different, he was caught by the soldiers for a crime, but he didn’t have the courage to participate in the wizard’s experiment, mumbling that he might see his wife and children after he died, so he chose to die.”
“Too—stupid!” Skeleton waved his arms exaggeratedly. “He should have gone to the experiment, but he chose the wrong one, didn’t he?”
Lupin didn’t reply for a while, because he couldn’t tell whether it was more fortunate to be a skeleton locked in a high tower with infinite life, or should he just die in a human state.
“There is no right or wrong in this kind of thing,” Lupin thought of the time when he lost all his friends, “If it were me, I would have made the same choice as him, I cannot endure loneliness like you, and endless life cannot bring Give me happiness, that’s not what I expected.”
Lupin walked over to the small stone window that brought light to the whole room and stroked the rough edges of the stone, “He dug out this window, right? He doesn’t want eternal life, but he wants to escape with his wife and children. See you above…”
“But he failed!” the skeleton interrupted Lupin, “the fool said he didn’t want to be a skeleton, for fear that his children would cry when they saw that face – but he never got a chance to see them! But he Or turned into a skeleton by a wizard – there is no hope!”
“He just chose the wrong one!” Skull yelled, and then suddenly fell silent for a while, without the liveliness before, it calmed down, “I don’t like you anymore, you are as foolish as him, and just like the girl before, You are not very smart…”
girl? Lupin extracted the key point, “A girl has been here before?”
The skeleton was originally silent, unwilling to answer Lupin’s question, but for some reason, he still spoke, “Hmph,” he snorted, “that girl also doesn’t want to participate in the wizard’s experiment, I accept the conditions. She’s been locked up here for a while, Modesty…she’s been thinking about escaping.”
“I persuaded her to participate in the wizard’s experiment, so that she could live forever like me, but she kept muttering that there was still a sister waiting for her…” Lupin stared out inexplicably a trace of loneliness from the empty eye sockets of the skeleton, and the skeleton walked away. Going to the stone window and looking at the scenery outside, “She is still trying to squeeze through this small hole that I can’t get out of my skull. She may think she is a red bird…”
“She’s got pretty red hair,” giggled the skeleton, chattering as if it had forgotten its previous unhappiness. “Have you heard that red hair brings misfortune?”
“I’ve heard of it, but I don’t agree,” Lupin thought of Lily, who also had beautiful red hair. “Whether it brings misfortune has nothing to do with hair color, I’m more inclined to curse and black magic. “Unfortunate,” was the reply of the schoolmaster Lupin, “so where did that red-haired girl go?”
“An interesting point,” the skull patted Lupin’s shoulder, “I suddenly like you a little bit,” this made Lupin uncomfortable, and no one wanted to be liked by the skull, “Then I’ll tell you, that The girl was taken by the wizard because she had some strange ability to make things float, strange? Maybe she was a strange creature like you – oh, and the wizard with the heart pierced – “
The skeleton pointed to Lupin’s glowing wand, “All these strange spells.”
“Where did the wizard take Modesty?”
“Who knows? Maybe it’s his new laboratory, in the castle that can be seen from here, since he was shot in the heart and returned from the battlefield alive, he has been praised by those nobles. , not to mention that he also promised to cast spells to make those nobles immortal,” Skull shrugged, “I hope he can turn those annoying nobles into me, and I can only look forward to this.”
“But what if you know it?” The skeleton circled Lupin, “You’re going to find Modesty? No, my friend, how are you going to get out? Do you want to be a pretty bird too? “
Lupin ignored the skeleton and pointed at the stone window with his wand, thinking, did he use ‘torn apart’? Or use ‘Break to pieces’? Or with ‘Thunderbolt’? Scholar sometimes has such troubles.
“What’s wrong? Birds are getting upset?” The skeleton giggled, thinking Lupin had nothing to do.
“Break to pieces!” Lupin’s wand shot a white light.
“Boom—” The stone wall was almost completely shattered, and Muggles couldn’t trap a learned wizard! The skeleton dropped its chin, literally, it hurriedly picked up the chin that fell on the ground.
“God!” Skeleton watched Lupin walk towards the entrance of the cave, “You—”
“Come with me?” Lupin invited.
“I have to stay here… to… Forget it, you go,” the skeleton’s voice was suddenly calm, as if it had made a decision.
“Wingadim Leviosa!” Lupin nodded, jumped off the tower, and slowly floated away from the tower with the help of the Floating Charm.
“Hey—friend—” Lupin heard the skeleton shouting, turned his head just in time to see him throw something, and Lupin waved his wand to catch it.
It’s a skull~www.mtlnovel.com~ Take this to the washerwoman in the palace, a woman named Babette—” the skull shouted from the wall, “my poor roommate was talking about it until he died. With his wife’s name… Anyway, let his head go home…”
Lupin watched as the skeleton was being held down by a group of guards, “You…” He tried to do something, but the skeleton broke free of the guards and said the last sentence, “You must save the red-haired Modesty. , and… cherish those who remember your name.”
Skeleton Barry, with open arms, jumped off the tower and fell into the forest, Lupin heard the sound of bones shattering.
This was almost an instant thing. Lupin didn’t have time to react, he could only stare at the forest in a daze. It’s fake, it’s a fairy tale, and the priority is to save Modesty and go back to Harry…’
Lupin looked at the skull in his hand, holding it in his hand to make him not look like a good person, he frowned, but in the end he didn’t drop the skull from the air.
Just drop by to meet Babette, the washerwoman, and don’t waste time.
