The clear sea breeze mixed with water vapor is slowly blowing from the calm sea of ​​the Mediterranean Sea, with a hint of salty smell belonging to the ocean. On the coastline far away from the forest, Nagini is standing at Nelson who has already taken off his shoes and stepped in the sea. Behind Tom, hesitated for a long time and dared not take the first step forward.

Just like the little mermaid who suddenly has two legs in a fairy tale, Nagini stepped barefoot on the quiet beach paved with white sand, and felt that every gravel was extremely rough, which brought him heartache all the time. But this kind of pain also makes her feel satisfied. This kind of frictional touch makes her feel that her life and body are extremely real. The pain of being unable to control her phantom limb has finally transformed into a real touch. Nagini finally feels My legs are not only in the dream of running, but walking in reality.

The Balkan Peninsula has a white sand beach known as "the most beautiful in the world". In fact, any coastal country has claimed to have the most beautiful beach in the world, just like the residents of every mountain think that the mountains that protect them are the highest. Big, it's no different -- and today, there's one more person with the same thought.

Nagini looked at Tom who jumped into the sea to fish, and Nelson who stood beside him and looked at the water splashing on him with disgust, showing a knowing smile. She had never seen such a beautiful beach in the world. Beautiful scenery, in the snake's vision, the world may only have chaotic and pungent pheromones, muddy ground, and tiny insects. For Nagini, all the current scenes are beautiful. She is embracing her long-lost friend ——A human point of view.

She thought it would be very difficult to turn back into a human, but she never expected that this seemingly impossible task would be accomplished in an unbelievably easy way in just over a month. Drugs, complex transformations, rare weather and psychedelic luck, she seemed to hold them in her hands in an instant inadvertently. Nagini stretched out her hand and gently embraced the shoulders of Nelson and Tom Shadow.

She couldn't help but apologized to the dead bar-headed owl, and was a little grateful. Without it, she might not have met these two people.

"Can you do this?"

Tom suddenly floated up from the water, with a large transparent bubble covering his head. The bubble head was bouncing like a jelly, and the refracted light pulled his facial features back and forth like a distorting mirror. A cute child, sometimes like a ferocious alien.

A slender green water snake rushes out of the water behind him, its tail curling around a large, constantly thrashing fish with a slender body, long, silky fins and spray like waves What's even more peculiar is that there is a long thorn on its head, and the whole fish is like a javelin, or a large hairtail ready to be grilled.

Seeing this shiny green water snake, Nagini immediately withdrew her foot that was just about to step into the sea, and took a step back calmly. Then, she smiled silently. It turned out that she was afraid of snakes when she was a human. of.

"Unfortunately, Tom," Nelson sideways avoided Tom's floating water, but unexpectedly was attacked by a water snake again. He turned his coat into a waterproof material in disgust, shook his head, and said, "This seems to be a swordfish , I heard it can be eaten, but I don't know how to do it."

"Okay," Tom waved his hand, the water snake flicked its tail, and threw the swordfish back into the sea, "I thought it was a unicorn in the sea, but I didn't expect it to be a fish."

"You can't eat unicorns either," Nelson rubbed his chin. Before he could finish his sentence, Tom dived into the sea again. He shrugged helplessly and said, "Of course, if you insist on eating it, I won't eat it." Method."

After that, he looked back at Nagini by the sea, and saw that her fair skin was a little red under the sun, so he drew out his wand and pointed it at the sand beside Nagini. Relying on her side to form a small tower, a big red and white parasol quickly opened above Nagini's head. She raised her head and looked at the special color scheme on the parasol. She lowered her head and saw A glass of red juice from Nelson.

"You don't seem to like the sea very much?" He took a big sip with a straw in his mouth, smacked his lips in satisfaction, and waved his hand, a beach chair with a rather advanced shape appeared behind Nagini.

"How could it be? I suggested that we go to the beach." Nagini took the juice, took a sip, raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Watermelon juice."

On the second day after the Borgin Bork incident, Nelson and Tom said goodbye to Rowena. The task of coming to Albania was basically completed, and there was no need to stay here.

Rowena, who has always been enthusiastic, changed her style on this day. She did not show up rather coldly, but let a trembling tree take small steps to station in front of Nelson's hut. Bring presents.

Nelson's was a book of notes on dementors she had written in tree bark, and the handwriting seemed damp with basil juice; As for Tom, I don’t know if it was because he offended her; I only got a stone wrapped in a large palm leaf. Although it seems to have been finely divided, the material looks like a stone. But Tom bowed to the forest instead, and carefully hid the stone in his arms—a scene that brought Nagini to tears, until the tree wrote on the ground, "The direction is reversed."

In addition, there was a letter exuding the fragrance of plants. Rowena hoped that they would give it to Professor Binns who could not leave Hogwarts instead of himself who could not leave the forest.

"It's not the best watermelon, but it's not bad," Nelson squinted his eyes and spotted Nagini who was already lying on the beach chair. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a kitten and squeezed beside her , asked, "We have to go back to school after school starts, but if we keep you in the secret room, I'm afraid you will be locked up and depressed. Do you have any ideas?"

"It doesn't matter, I can stay in the secret room," Nagini stretched out her hand to touch Nelson's fur, which seemed to feel good to the touch, but as soon as her hand approached, the hair on Nelson's back stood up, "Have you forgotten? I can also be an Animagus. I can turn back into a snake and slip through the water pipes to Hogsmeade. I know the way."

"I don't recommend you to do this, because you need a long time to adapt to the transformation of human beings, so in a short time, it's best not to become a snake," Nelson changed into a more comfortable position, pondered for a moment, the voice came from the cat A grunt came out of his throat as if he had been scratched comfortably, "Let me think about it..."

Tom flopping in the water, Nagini lying on the beach chair, and Nelson who nestled aside and turned into a cat, the three formed an extremely harmonious picture on the long and narrow coast of the southern Balkan Peninsula.

The sun slowly moved towards the west, and the parasol on the beach adjusted its angle like a sunflower, firmly covering the person and cat under the umbrella in the shadow.

I don't know how long it took, the hair on the top of the kitten's head stood up suddenly, Nelson jumped up, jumped on Nagini's head, and took a forward step on the spot: "I remembered, next semester, the Triwizard Tournament, Germany Armstrong needs a team teacher, and when I pass by Nurmengard later, I will ask you if I can let you go with the team."

"Triwizard Tournament? What is that?" Nagini asked curiously.

"Didn't we tell you?" Nelson stepped on Nagini's forehead, "We've been talking about it before."

After receiving a negative answer, he began to explain the history and competition system of the Triwizard Tournament in detail, which made Nagini sigh, "You really like excitement, and the lives of the best students are at stake."

"If it's dead, it's not the best student," Tom said, coming out of the sea with two live fish, a hake and a tuna, and he threw them on the ground and squeezed into the shade under the umbrella. Squeezed, and said like a philosopher, "He who lives in security seeks crisis, just as he who lives in danger seeks security."

"That's a good point," Nelson said, lifting his neck lazily, "but next time you say something like this, can you remove the head curse? It looks funny."

Angrily, Tom poked hard at the bubble on his head with his wand. The huge bubble was like a snot bubble during a lunch break, and it burst with a "bang".

"You don't know how to cook these two common fishes, do you?" Tom raised his jaw at the two fishes that were still thumping on the ground as if changing the subject, "longli fish and salmon, if you don't know It doesn't make sense to do it."

"..."

On the face of the kitten above Nagini’s head showed a complex expression that included but was not limited to hesitating and difficult to comment. Nelson struggled for a moment and finally said: “That’s cod and tuna. Professionals, speaking of which, there is a restaurant that I have always wanted to treat you to."

"The store you're talking about is the one where you bought the bowl—uh..." Nelson jumped up and stuck his paw on Tom's face.

"Okay, let's go."

The kitten fell to the ground and turned into Nelson's figure. He raised the cane that fell into his hand at some point, and whispered the name of the priestess: "Pythia."

A white light flashed, and the three people and the two fish disappeared on the beach. Only the parasol and the beach chair stood alone in the scorching afternoon sun. A hermit crab aimed at the small hole in the base of the parasol and dropped it immediately. The conch on his back waved two small pincers to drill into it.

In the next second, the parasol and beach chair turned into white sand, maintained their original shape for less than a second, and quickly hit the ground.

After a while, a pair of pliers was digging hard at the soil, dragging the ground and pulling the whole body out. The hermit crab shook off the white sand on its body, and looked blankly at the flat beach around. The first conch shell was buried by the sand and disappeared. With no trace, it waved its pincers and left this dangerous world with dejected steps.

...

"He's coming, he's coming!"

Tom, who had just recovered from the glare of the white light, heard the commotion around him. He rubbed his eyes, only to find that a group of wizards surrounded himself and Nagini with a statue. Nelson didn't know when he became a The cat hid in Nagini's arms like a real pet.

Holding the two fish, Tom felt extremely at a loss. He raised his head and looked at the tall, somewhat familiar statue. When he saw the inscription on the base of the statue, he suddenly remembered that there was another statue depicting the figure in this statue —it once beat itself on the head in Paris.

"It's him, that's right!" The wizard, who looked like a little leader, held a piece of paper and looked at Tom who was standing there, as if he was comparing something. Tom took a closer look, and the piece of paper seemed to be a clipping.

Through the back of the clipping, Tom saw a picture, and for a split second! Tom felt his blood pressure rise uncontrollably, and the blood vessels on his temples couldn't help but pulsate.

Even if he dies, he will remember that photo, that report, that newspaper and that news headline - "Finding Pythia - The Great Performance Artists Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald's First Appearance Streets of Paris".

"You must be Mr. Riddle." The wizard holding the newspaper clipping carefully folded the newspaper in his arms, approached Tom, stood at a distance, and said hello politely.

"Ah... yes." Tom was holding two fish, not knowing where to put his hands.

"Sure enough, you are here." The wizard nodded, then turned to Nagini, and said respectfully, "Master Wiltoning, even if you don't want to see us, there is no need to become a woman."

"?"

"My lord, she does not seem to be Lord Wertning." A black-robed man behind the wizard stepped forward and said in a low voice.

"That's right," Tom answered tactfully, "he sent us here to learn, and he didn't go with us."

"Ah? Really? I'm so sorry," the wizard scratched his head in embarrassment, and asked, "Do you know where Master Wertling has gone? We really don't mean any harm, it's just that his friends haven't seen each other for a long time He wants to catch up with him."

He even opened his hand to show that he was not malicious.

"Meow~" Nelson in Nagini's arms raised his head, yawned, raised his front paw and pointed back, which was the direction of Grindelwald's residence - the Black Tower.

"So I went to the Black Tower, thank you!" The wizard thanked respectfully, and then directed the surrounding wizards to search in that direction.

...

"The menu of this store is really interesting." Tom looked at the menu of the restaurant downstairs in the library, and sighed, "The wizard of Nurmengard is not as cruel as he imagined, on the contrary, he is quite polite, but he feels out of his mind. Very easy to use."

"Do you really think so?" Nelson sat on the back seat, flipping through the menu feebly, "In fact, we are already surrounded."

"Da da da——" The crisp sound of hard soles hitting the wooden floor came from far and near.
