harry potter book of crimes

"Miss Hohenheim, what's wrong? Why are the curtains closed?"

Ron, who was half sitting and half lying on the bed, looked at Sarah, who was sitting in an armchair not far away. Watching her suddenly command her alchemy doll to go over and close the curtains, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

When Sarah heard this, she stopped her little feet dangling in the air for a moment, and answered casually:

"Because that 'Mr. Stewart' has just passed by the window diagonally opposite, it should be easy to see what is in our room from there - of course, as long as the curtains are kept open.

It only works under certain conditions.”

After he finished speaking, the room returned to silence for a moment.

Yes, as mentioned before, Hermione and the others have indeed left London temporarily, but naturally there are still companions who need to stay here. And the one who has to stay here for a while is the one who unfortunately lost his legs before.

Mr. Ron Weasley.

However, it was too dangerous to leave Ron alone, so even if everyone went out to fight the devil desperately, Hermione and Harry still brought Sarah, who was not very good at fighting on the front line, with them.

They stayed together. Maybe Sarah herself had the idea of ​​not participating in the war, but ensuring Ron's safety was the real reason.

"Oh, it's the American wizard!"

Not long after, Ron on the bed tilted his head, twisted his mouth, and muttered something to himself, as if he was confused about why. And just when Ron was thinking about something, Sarah across from him reached out again.

He picked up the coffee cup on the table next to him and said casually:

"Hmm... But if he had good eyesight, he would probably be able to see the moment when the curtains were closed!"

"Ah?" Ron was startled, but soon he seemed to realize something and looked towards Sarah, "Oh, did you let him see it on purpose? Why? I heard before leaving

When a group of wizards appeared in the east, didn't you and Hermione decide to follow his advice this time and avoid them and stay on the sidelines?"

After experiencing many ups and downs in life, Ron has increasingly learned how to be keenly aware of some details and think about them. What's more, after spending such a long time with the inhuman girl in front of him, he has already learned about her abilities.

With sufficient knowledge, I knew that if it were Sarah, she would never make such a low-level mistake in a trivial matter like pulling the curtains.

So he immediately understood that it was probably Sarah's deliberate intention to let the other party see the shaking of the curtains.

"Yes, we have decided that we should carefully observe the situation of this group of wizards first, but things always have to change according to changes in the situation, right?" Sarah took a sip of the sweet coffee, and then continued.

, "The 'change' now is that I just discovered last night that the purpose of their group of wizards... does seem to be a bit strange. Just in case, it is better to find an opportunity to test it out as soon as possible!"

"Really?" Ron listened and couldn't help but raise his hand and scratch his head, "What did you find?"

"You don't need to worry about it. You'd better get used to these legs as soon as possible! It's been so many days, and there's not much time left for you - you see, you can only take the risk in this operation.

Missing it here makes me nervous, which is not a good thing."

Although Sarah's tone of voice when she said these words was still as calm as ever, Ron still couldn't help but feel ashamed.

Yes, it was not surprising that he could not quickly and smoothly control the alchemy prosthesis customized for him by Sarah because it required various subtle adjustments at the beginning. But now, the changes that need to be made have long been completed, and Sarah herself

He can even install them on his waist and use "four legs" to run and jump. In this case, if he can't control the pair of prosthetic limbs like his arms and fingers, it can only be his own problem.

.

But there is no way, Ron seems to have never been able to completely use this masterpiece of alchemy as his own legs. Although it is rare to be in a state where he can barely walk like at the beginning, but now

Now that he was operating in a dangerous and disasterous place, it was not enough for him to just take a walk with all his concentration.

"Uh...Okay, okay."

Ron, who was mercilessly accused by Sarah, could only nod his head with a grimace, indicating that he would no longer be distracted by what Sarah was doing.

"Well," Sarah also nodded, and then turned to look at Ron who was quite disappointed and said, "There's no need to be too anxious. We've already stayed here anyway, so we just need to get used to it before everyone comes back.

That's it. And I think it's probably not that easy to adapt to having to rely solely on prosthetics when both legs are gone. No one is blaming you, so just do it with peace of mind.

Bar!"

After saying these words, a warm smile appeared on Sarah's face.

Since acquiring real emotions, Sarah has been in a state of directly experiencing the subtle changes of emotions all the time. Recently, she has obviously become more and more accustomed to this kind of real expression changes. And it can be seen that,

Under the indirect influence of the friends around her who were mostly good-natured and kind-hearted, she herself became gentler, kinder and full of goodwill.

Of course, when she needs to be rational and objective, her rational thinking derived from the alchemy android will inevitably make her words seem a bit harsh and direct - just like what happened just now.

"Okay, let's continue practicing after you've had enough rest! Don't be lazy." Sarah raised her chin and gestured to Ron.

"Oh, okay."

Ron responded honestly, and then lifted the thin quilt covering his body, revealing the alchemy prosthetic limb on his lower body. After a series of improvements and adjustments by Sarah, this prosthetic limb looked...

They looked no different from real human legs, but...how should I put it? When they were installed on Ron's body, there was still an incongruous feeling.

"Tum."

Ron rolled out of bed and landed heavily, and then started practicing alone. Until nearly half an hour later, a slight knock on the door announced the end of Ron's period of self-practice.

"Click."

The one who opened the door was Sarah's alchemy doll. As the door was gently opened, a figure that looked like it would make one's scalp numb appeared at the door.

"Oh, it's you, are you here to deliver food?" Sarah, who was still sitting in the armchair, said without raising her head, but as if she had already seen the other person.
