harry potter book of crimes

"Ms. Kern..."

"We're back."

Although I am a little reluctant, the word "come back" is used here, which is actually somewhat appropriate.

After all, she and Luna had just left here, looking as embarrassed as the goblins in the back garden of the Burrow who were being chased all over the yard by Crookshanks.

However, no matter how thrilling the scene during the escape is, you will eventually come back when it's time to come back.

Because their home is here.

"I hope I can still eat the last bowl of my favorite milk pudding here when I graduate."

This is what Luna said after escaping from the auditorium earlier.

Of course, this cannot be said to express the feelings of everyone present at this moment, because people like Safina and others are not even from Hogwarts.

But to be honest, even Hermione, who had far less affection for this campus than Luna, would have been hard-pressed to think of milk pudding at that time and under those circumstances.

Those were the kind of thoughts that only Luna would burst out from time to time.

only……

"Just looking at this scene, I do miss the noisy but joyful dinner scene a little bit!"

The moment she stepped into this empty, lonely, and strange auditorium, Hermione spoke loudly according to the planned plan, but she thought so in her heart.

She originally thought that after feeling such suffocating invisible pressure, she would feel nervous when she had to come back here again. But it was strange that although this space was still oppressive to her, it had not been there before.

The nerves that had become increasingly tense due to repeated urgent planning suddenly relaxed after arriving here.

Looking at the graceful figure still sitting in the middle of the auditorium, the full sense of oppression seemed to break through its easy-going and indifferent appearance at any time... It was not that she couldn't feel this illusion, but it might be worse than the one behind her.

Others have come even clearer.

However, she still just said hello and walked inside step by step.

When the others saw this, most of them couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then they took steps one after another to follow him in.

At this time, the most nervous people are the zombie boy Ribes, who is always cold and cold, and the group of strong men from the intelligent zombie clan led by him.

Yes, if the previous demons were the natural enemies of the living zombies, and Haierbo, who planned to give birth to them and also captured the body of the demon, was even more difficult for them to deal with... then the one in front of them now

What kind of existence should that person be to Rebes and the other living corpses?

Obviously, Rebes had already thought about this issue more than once before he decided to come with Hermione and others.

They had thought about it, hesitated, and even thought about it over and over again in the most rational way of thinking.

"Will you die?"

"Maybe it will."

Although for the living zombie clan, life and death are just a cycle.

"Then...will you be easily controlled by the other party the moment you meet?"

"Maybe so."

After all, it is said that the witch has already mastered the true meaning of the soul rules and is the incarnation of death. For these "things" that were born based only on part of the soul rules, they are simply equivalent to gods.

However, Rebes knew that if he wanted to survive freely in this world, today's meeting was inevitable.

So here they come.

And until this moment, when Rebes and his party followed the crowd and finally saw "that being"...

"Why?"

When everyone in front followed Hermione and stepped forward, only a group of intelligent zombies headed by Rebes stopped in front of the black fog barrier at the door.

In fact, they were all stunned after they passed through the black fog barrier blocking the door with everyone.

Because they discovered that the situation that they thought they would feel infinite oppression and threat in front of "that being" did not appear, but when they faced that figure, they felt only a kind of cordiality from the heart.

.

This is undoubtedly an extremely unfamiliar feeling to Ribes and other living zombies. After all, they are born without the concept of "parents". Even Haierbo, who can barely be regarded as their "father", does not have the concept of "parents" at all.

I never looked at them seriously, I just treated them as "by-products" that could be used a little bit.

If they had ever had experiences similar to human childhood, they might be able to understand that this feeling can be called "family affection."

However, when Hermione and others finally realized that the group of zombie friends had not followed, the witch Kern, who had not responded to Hermione's greeting just now, suddenly came out of her quiet reading state.

He raised his head.

Then, she spoke.

"In any case, at least on this point, 'he' has done a very good job... Being able to see the birth of new human beings, my busy life can be considered to have its corresponding value."

Kern's gaze seemed to pass directly through the person's body. When Hermione and others felt that she was looking at them, the object they were looking at was actually the group of people behind them who were still standing at the door.

Rebes and other intelligent zombies in the past.

However, when they heard the words "'He' did a very good job," everyone present couldn't help but feel their hearts skip a beat.

Who does "he" refer to? Haierbo?

That's right, maybe Haierbo is actually nothing in the eyes of the other party, so that until now, Kern has not paid attention to Haierbo's current situation - she should not be aware of the things that happened not long ago.

You may not know this - but according to someone once said, this person in front of you is Haierbo’s teacher after all!

So even though he didn't care much about that apprentice, he still spent a lot of effort to bring her back to this world.

So when everything the other party has done for her is clearly displayed in front of her, such a compliment may come a little late, but it is never excessive.

Well, that should be it, right? In short, it makes sense, that is...

"...You shouldn't and don't need to mix with these old humans, because you are the residents of this new world from now on. The more you do this, the more it will be impossible for them to become you -

-I know that through the contact and companionship during this period of time, you have developed feelings for these old humans. Don't worry, this is normal, because they will eventually become one of you... I don't know'

What did he tell you, but I believe he must have mentioned it to you. It is not a mistake to live with them, but it is not the time yet..."

"Don't mention 'him' to me!"

Suddenly, Rebes burst out.
