Hogwarts Melon Eater - Chapter 255

The United States, a peaceful small town in Virginia, welcomed two uninvited guests.

Anna and Fox appeared in the garden of a two-storey house. The small flame brought by Fox ignited the dead leaves, and Anna hurriedly put out the fire.

This is the home of Terry and his daughter Alice. The mailbox at the door reads ”Alice’s Tree Hole” in colored crayons, ”Ready for Wonderland? There is a rabbit board next to ” with a very childish decoration on it.

There are swings and a small slide in the garden, and there is a relatively clean little girl’s coat on the slide, which must have just been placed there.

Fox pecked at Anna’s clothes, and then quickly disappeared into a flame.

“Hey!”

After a while, Anna heard the girl’s voice coming from a certain tree. She looked up and saw a simple tree house there. A golden head emerged from the wooden planks of the tree house, and it was a small freckled face. girl.

Dark blue sweater, white overalls, blond hair in two braids, and she’s still chewing bubble gum.

“Who are you? What are you doing in my yard?” The girl looked at Anna, “I’ve never seen you.”

“Alice?” Anna tried to pronounce the name.

“How do you know my name is Alice?” Alice frowned, but quickly let go, “Oh—you must have seen what I wrote on the mailbox, so sly, I don’t know what your name is yet Woolen cloth!”

“Anna, Anna Lawrence,” Anna gave her a smile, “I just moved here, and I just passed by when I was out for a walk. What are you doing in the treehouse?”

“What else can I do in the tree house, stay like a silly squirrel, eat pizza and read comics, while waiting for my dad to come back from get off work,” Alice curled her lips, “He promised to take me to the circus to watch the show today, But was called away by work, and for so long–haven’t come back–“

Alice waved her hand. “I hate work.”

Terry was supposed to be taken away by the Mystery Control Bureau because he changed the time and resurrected Alice, while also inflicting huge time damage.

Alice should have died five years ago, and Anna stared at the healthy and lively girl in the tree without speaking.

“What’s the matter? Why are you so stupid?” Alice waved her hand. “Want to come up and have a look, Anna?”

“How old are you Alice now?” Anna shook her head, “I won’t come up, I’m afraid of heights.”

“Me? I just turned eleven years old yesterday. If I had known you earlier, I would have invited you to my party. Yesterday, my classmates and I almost collapsed the house!”

“Classmate? Speaking of which, is it close to the school? I’m going to transfer to a community primary school, but I haven’t been there once.”

“It’s still a long way, but it’s not too far,” Alice shook her head, her braids swaying with it.

“Go to the end of our block and go down the bakery road, ”Mother Allen’s Bakery”, it’s so famous, it’s number one in all of Virginia… uh , where is it, oh yes, follow the bakery road, keep walking, and then you’re there.”

“Of course, if you think it’s too far, you can take the school bus, or let your parents drive to pick you up,” Alice slid down the hemp rope tied to the wooden house, “Do you want to go to the school? I can take you there, I’m bored anyway.”

“Okay, thank you,” Anna took a step back, because Alice, who had just landed, slammed into her and moved her nose.

“Uh, what’s wrong?” Anna smiled.

“It’s nothing, it’s just that you smell like licorice, it’s very fragrant, I like it,” Alice took Anna’s hand, her actions were very natural, like a confident girl with social bullying, ” Are you from England?”

“My accent?”

“Yeah, it’s easy to hear, but it’s okay, it doesn’t sound very strange,” Alice changed from pulling Anna to holding her arm, and the two walked out of the yard side by side, “Why did you come here? What? Parents’ jobs?”

“Yes, my mother is a writer. Recently, she was going to collect materials here and write a book, so she brought me and my brother here,” Anna said nonsense.

“Where’s your dad?” Alice asked casually.

“He wasn’t with us. Mom said he was back in God’s arms,” ​​Anna said, showing a depressed mood. “That’s one of the reasons we came to America, a new environment.”

“Wow… I’m sorry,” Alice scratched her head, and she began to feel at a loss. “My family is just me and my father, my mother… I divorced my father when I was very young and went to Egypt to do research. When I went, she would send me a lot of weird things, like a handful of sand, and on my sixth birthday, she gave me a box of special cookies, saying that I could get smaller if I ate them…”

“Hey! We’re at the bakery!” Alice pointed to a shop, and before they knew it, they had reached the street.

With all kinds of masonry buildings, everything in this town looks ancient.

“Do you know of any unoccupied single-family houses around here? You seem to be familiar with this area?” Anna wants to quickly find the house where Terry uses the time-turner, “We may have to rent a room away from school. closer house.”

“Of course I’m familiar, but I’ve lived here since I was a child, um… let me think about it—” Alice touched her chin and thought seriously, “If I really want to say, there is indeed an unoccupied house nearby… You can go to the intermediary and ask about it.”

“But…” Alice showed a strange expression, she pulled Anna to run, “Go, I’ll show you.”

The two quickly came to an intersection, “It’s there,” Alice pointed to an old house with yellow paint, white fences, and a wooden terrace that was in disrepair and seemed to sink if you stepped on it.

“Look, the traces of history, the beautiful bright yellow color, and the little thriving garden! But, in general, I don’t recommend you rent this house—” Alice lowered her voice mysteriously.

“why?”

“Because everyone says the house—haunted—” Alice stretched her voice.

“Haunted? This house is still haunted in such a lively street?” Anna shook her head in disbelief.

“Hey, that’s because something happened here, and that **** happened five years ago,” Alice exaggeratedly waved her hand, “It can be considered as personal experience, I was sitting on the school bus with my classmates in the bus. I heard gunshots!”

“The driver stopped immediately and let us all lay on the ground with our heads on our heads to avoid getting hit by bullets, but I was terrified! Then there was the house, and there was a green light from the window, and then the gunshots disappeared!”

“The bus driver called the police, and then the police came. They found two bodies in the bungalow with no injuries in masks, as well as a strange human statue.”

Alice made a frightening expression, “The police saw blood that extended all the way to the locker in the basement, but there was nothing in the locker!”

“Then the bungalow was blocked, and then unblocked. Someone sneaked in to explore, and then came out and told everyone that there were a lot of scary things there, such as human skeletons and so on – and everyone said it was Haunted house,” Alice said with a hint of disdain.

“Are you afraid of haunted houses?” Anna glanced at Alice’s expression.

“Of course I’m not afraid – I’ve seen it, there’s no human skeleton there!” Alice grabbed her hand. “It’s just some broken furniture, very ordinary.”

“You are very brave.”

“Of course,” Alice patted herself on the shoulder, “I’m not afraid of ghosts or anything. The bedtime stories my dad told me are hundreds of times scarier than ghost stories. I’ve practiced this since I was a child.”

“Do you dare to play hide-and-seek with me in a haunted house?” Anna stared at Alice, “If you’re afraid, forget it.”

Alice hesitated for a second, “What is there to dare? Newcomer, are you questioning my bravery – the great Alice accepts your challenge.”

“Then let’s go,” Anna and Alice came to the front of the haunted house. Anna pointed to the tree at the door. “You can count here, count to a hundred and come to me.”

“You can only hide in the house, you are not allowed to hide in other places, and you can’t leave me and run away while I am counting, and let me find it foolishly inside!”

“Of course,” Anna nodded.

“Okay, then let’s pull the hook,” Alice stretched out her finger and Anna pulled the hook, “if I find you, it’s my win, in which case you want to treat me to the new meat floss from Granny Allen’s bakery. How about bread?”

“Okay, what if you don’t find me?”

“Impossible, I’ve never lost a game of hide and seek… well, if I lose then I’ll give… lend you my favorite comic book? It’s an out-of-print comic…”

“Okay, then you can start counting,” Anna nodded, watching Alice turn around, she stepped on the terrace of the ”Haunted House”, and a creaking voice sounded, As if the terrace would collapse in the next second, Anna walked to the window and turned into the bungalow from the open window.

The bungalow was very quiet. Only Alice’s counting voice came from outside the window. The sunlight passed through the house, and people could clearly see the fine dust raised in the air.

Anna looked back at Alice standing under the tree~www.mtlnovel.com~fifteen, sixteen…” She was counting seriously.

Go back in time, stop Terry, and Alice will be shot and the soul merged with the school bus… but everything will be back on track and Professor Jacob Kowalski will be back at Hogwarts.

Anna went directly to the basement of the bungalow, and suddenly thought of a question.

Why does the card suggest going back five years? Why not just go back to when Terry was going to use the time shifter? Wouldn’t it be more convenient to stop him at that time?

Anna took out the beige card and found that it was indeed written to turn five times and go back to five years ago.

”Well, ”Ana thought, ”may be the limitation of time travel. ”

She found a hidden corner in the basement, put on the invisibility cloak given by Headmaster Dumbledore, and then hung the Mintab time-turner around her neck.

Five turns, Anna twisted the **** of the time converter.
