Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

"It sounds good, at least not in awkwardness."

After carefully listening to Elena's description, Grindelwald nodded slowly after being silent for a moment.

Birth, sickness and death, this is a natural law that no creature can resist. Even if he has mastered the magic stone and has a near "eternal" life, Nicole May cannot prevent his own body from aging.

In fact, Grindelwald is not afraid of death. In the long time of solitude, he imagined many scenes about the visit of death, and today this unhurried situation is undoubtedly one of the most ideal ways to say goodbye.

"Sorry……"

Elena bit her lip hard, still keeping her head down-no matter in the past and present, the girl's footsteps sounded so clear for the first time.

"There is nothing sorry, as you said, this, um ... diabetes is not an overnight illness. This is a long process, even long enough that it may be far before you are born."

Grindelwald waved his hand in disapproval. As a little enlightened wizard in the magic world, accepting and understanding some of the Muggle medical theoretical results in Elena's mouth was not a difficult thing for him.

"Looking up at me, I'm not weak enough to die at a glance."

After glancing down at Elena, Grindelwald raised her eyebrows and patted the girl's slightly trembling shoulders, "Listen, in this world, there are people dying every moment, death is just one The most common thing. As a wizard, learning how to face death earlier is not a bad thing. "

"Actually, this is just a show that you and Dumbledore have played together for the purpose of trying to temper me? Actually, you will not really be okay, right. Dumbledore has actually been watching our Right? "

Elena raised her head, her eyes were slightly red and swollen, she asked rather unwillingly, with a hint of hope in her tone.

"……Unfortunately."

Grindelwald looked at the eyes in front of him as swollen like a rabbit, with an unrealistic hope in her eyes. After a moment of silence, she shook her head calmly.

"Okay. In fact, I can also tell you that when you wake up tomorrow morning, you will find that everything is just a dream, the world is still beautiful, I am very healthy, you will go back to Hogwarts to continue studying, all ordinary everyday will come back … But—you and I know it does n’t make much sense, does it? ”

"Actually ..." Elena's eyes dimmed.

"My magic power can still support eleven hours, almost enough to spend today."

Grindelwald reached out and rubbed the girl's hair, interrupted Elena before she could organize it, and seriously looked at the girl's blue eyes, "But ... tonight, let me go back alone Sleep on the tower-I thought about it, or the previous room was asleep and comfortable. When you leave tomorrow, be quiet, do n’t bother me. "

"What are you talking about, the room above is not ..."

Hearing Grindelwald's voice, Elena frowned sharply, preparing to point out the excuse that the old man had missed. Suddenly, from the smiling eyes of the old wizard, she saw a request that she had never seen before. In the throat.

"Okay, I get it."

Elena's face changed a few times, her lips moved into a sigh in her heart, and at last she said nothing, but nodded her head and agreed, her chest was as if it was suddenly blocked, so dull and panic.

"Okay, don't say that."

After receiving Elena's promise, Grindelwald's expression relaxed, and he waved his hand and suddenly digressed and said, "If I remember correctly, it would be your birthday in ten days?"

"Well, September 25th." Elena nodded and looked at the old man in confusion.

"I have a gift for you. I was going to wait until Albus came to pick you up, but it seemed I had to advance it a little bit."

Grindelwald smiled slightly, and took a delicately crafted necklace from the inner pocket of his robe with his right hand. The pattern of the pendant was composed of a triangle, a circle, and a vertical line. It seemed to be made of some unknown metal. The fire swaying from the fireplace shone slightly.

"This is a little thing that I passed the time when I was young and made it. It is a magic prop with a small iron armor spell on it, which can automatically help you resist one or two simple spells-if it is your school. Children, it may take five to ten to break. "

"Simultaneously……"

Grindelwald paused, his thumb flicked on the pattern, and his expression was a little complicated, "This is also the logo I used to be, the famous Dark Lord logo in the magic world, so it ’s better not to show it in front of people often. . "

"Well, I know."

Elena nodded and took the necklace from the old man's hands with two hands, wearing it solemnly around her neck.

The pendant attached to the skin does not have the icy coldness of the imagination, but a slightly rough feeling like wood and stone. A whimsical magic circled in the center of the pendant and seemed to be waiting for excitation at any time.

"But you don't have to be too nervous, and people who know this sign are probably not too many."

Grindelwald glanced at Elena and grinned, "After all, my time has passed for too long, too long, even the youngest wizard of the year is now at least sixty years old. And Compared to this symbol, I guess Voldemort ’s unsatisfactory snake and bone marks seem to be more scary. Perhaps I should also add bones or animals ... "

As he said, Grindelwald shook his head in disgust, and now the wizard is far worse than he was in his time.

Ignoring the joke that the old man was not funny, Elena asked, frowning at the pendant on her chest.

"Is there really no other way? Think again, like contacting Dumbledore or even the European Ministry of Magic?"

Although I promised the old wizard no longer to discuss this issue before, Elena was still a little bit unwilling after all.

"No. In order to prevent outside wizards from entering, Newmongarde Castle has isolated all external communication channels."

Gellert Grindelwald shook his head, looked around the stone walls of the castle, and spread his hands.

"The entire castle was cast with a non-markable curse, a phantom phantom or phantom dislocation curse, a Muggle expulsion curse ... and a series of deep spells, which completely removed it from most people. Cognitively stripped out. "

"Even after a saint tried to break into the castle, the real coordinates of the entire castle were hidden in the heart by Dumbledore using a bold loyal mantra. Unless Albus took the initiative to reveal the address in person, it would not Until death, no one in the entire magic world can find this castle built in the Alps. "

"So say ... no one will come."

After that, Gellert Grindelwald stood up and took the initiative to end the topic, reaching out to Elena with a smile.

"Speaking of it, for so many days, I haven't taken you to visit this castle. While it's still early today, you can accompany me around the castle. You can turn around-just I can tell you something, UU. Reading at www.uukanshu.com, the professors at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry will not tell you the secrets of the magic world. "

Since only the last day was left, Grindelwald was naturally reluctant to continue to sit in a daze in the room.

Except for helping Elena go to the fourth floor to catch termites a few days ago, he has forgotten when he last walked in Newmongadri.

"What's the matter? Why are you still stunned?"

After a long while, Grindelwald raised his head in confusion and shrugged helplessly. "Could you have another better idea?"

Not far from the old man, I saw Elena's brow furrowed and her index finger was gently biting in her mouth. Her dim eyes lighted up gradually and she murmured unconsciously.

"Austria ... Alps ... Austria ... Alps ..."
