harry potter book of crimes

Everything is suspicious and deliberate. Everything that has happened in the past few days seems to be leading everyone, intentionally or unintentionally, to the depths of the quagmire called "uneasiness."

Every time you take a step forward, you never know whether you will face a field covered by mud or an abyss that will mercilessly swallow everything.

However, the speculation about the true identity of the Lord of the Living Corpses seems to be a vaguely visible light. Even if it flickers left and right, it still gives Hermione and others the courage to step into this swamp and guide them.

It is the only beacon that guides everyone to keep moving forward.

"When a friend has clearly stood against us, we still can't let go of the trust we once had in him - such deep and firm feelings are certainly touching, but they are not necessarily sad. After all,

This level of trust has often turned into a kind of 'expectation', and the emotion of 'expectation'... can only arise when a person gradually loses his self-confidence. Although it sounds nice, it is definitely not a good thing.

s things."

Tomorrow morning we will set off with the Lord of the Living Corpses to trace the traces of the demon and fight together. Before facing another fierce battle, adequate rest is obviously indispensable, so even if everyone is still in their hearts

There were a lot of questions, and we didn’t get together to discuss it for too long. We quickly went back to our rooms.

There are naturally many rooms in Buckingham Palace. Originally, the living corpses had arranged a room for Hermione and her group. But it was too insecure to spend the night alone in a place like this, so of course it was impossible for everyone to completely separate.

Come.

In the end, Hermione decided on the overnight strategy of the three of them sharing a guest room and taking care of each other at night.

The three people assigned to rest in this room are Safina, Hannah and Sarah. Since there are only two beds in one room, Hannah and Sarah are sleeping on the same bed. Fortunately

Sarah's body is relatively small, so she doesn't look too crowded when lying next to Hannah.

It was Sarah who just said those words. Because she didn’t need sleep, she didn’t mind keeping a vigil for Safina and Hannah. But seeing Safina opposite who seemed unable to sleep, she naturally

He opened his mouth and started a conversation.

"'What you expect from others is a lack of confidence'? It sounds reasonable... What about you? Don't you have any trust or expectations for Mr. MacLean?"

Safina knew that what Sarah just said was definitely not about her, because the reason why she stood up to fight against this disaster was different from others. If Hermione and the others were to save their relatives and friends, or even

So if she wants to save the entire world, then the reason for her action is just to fulfill a promise.

Perhaps that unequal transaction was mixed with some complicated feelings about Maka McClain, but what drove her to act was not a great goal or deep emotion after all.

Facing this terrible disaster, she would not place a lot of hopes on Maka like Hermione and other friends who were born in Hogwarts.

And similarly, for some more fundamental reasons, Sarah's attitude towards this series of powerful enemies such as living zombies, demons, Haierbo, etc. is obviously more calm or even indifferent.

"Me?" Hearing Safina ask herself, Sarah immediately shook her head, "Actually, I still don't care after all. Whatever the world becomes, it seems that it won't have much impact on me.

influence, let alone trust and expectations... But if we have to compare them together, I think I should like you humans more! Therefore, no matter what McClane has planned, I will still stand

On Granger's side."

"Well," Safina pulled the edge of the quilt to make herself lie more comfortable, and then looked at the dark ceiling and said casually, "then at least we are still going in the same direction for the time being... Mr. MacLean wanted to

I helped Granger and the others end this disaster, and as a deal, I agreed. So now, no matter whether he has changed his mind or not, I will still act in accordance with what I originally promised."

At this point, she paused for a moment and added with some hesitation:

"Besides, I... am still a 'human', not a living corpse or a demon... right?"

When she said the last sentence, her tone seemed to be a little hesitant, as if she was using this sentence to confirm her true intention, or just to make her idea more firm.

After the words fell, neither of them spoke immediately. They just lay on the bed and fell into a little thought. Both of them were breathing very shallowly. Only Hannah, who had already fallen asleep, was inhaling and exhaling quite vigorously.

, occasionally uttered two sentences in sleep with a nasal sound, which were vague and unclear.

Sarah stretched out her hand and pinched her nose, watching her subconsciously open her mouth, as if she felt a little amused, and smiled slightly. The way she looked at Hannah was a bit like that of an elderly elder.

A child, but not the same.

"By the way," Sarah said again while carefully looking at Hannah's sleeping face, "Since we are all prepared to stand on Granger's side, shouldn't we also take the initiative to help them do something for themselves?

Maybe something that is unlikely to be done? For example... if you can't sleep now, should we secretly meet the 'Lord of the Living Corpses' and confirm some things for Granger and the others in advance?

"

"Are you sure that just the two of us can do it?" Safina didn't even look at her side, still staring at the ceiling and said, "If we are unlucky, I don't think we can escape unscathed - you know,

Almost all my strength was given by McClain."

"Although I haven't said it much, in fact, at least half of my current alchemy strength is due to some help from him."

Sarah said and shrugged, quite a bit like Maka once did, but doing this while lying on the bed seemed a bit clumsy and strange.

"But," she continued, "if we don't figure it out as soon as possible, I always feel that we will have no chance to figure it out soon. Granger and the others may be too affected by emotional factors and have been hesitant and hesitant.

It has blinded my reason, and I think at this time we need someone who can be more objective and decisive in doing something...either to wake her up and let her do it, or...let us do it for her!"
