HP Bella's Lie

08- Snow Carnival

Back to the top of the slope, Bella's eyes became serious.Soon, she entered the state of rapid speed again. The cold wind whizzed by, and the snow scenes on both sides flashed behind her. Bella focused on controlling the snowboard, adjusting the angle bit by bit, and stabilizing her figure... …finally managed to make a perfect turn!

Then one more, and another... She began to slide freely on the snow field, turning, making sudden stops...

A fresh and exciting feeling seized Bella's nerves, and she felt that she had experienced the wonderful charm of this sport.

Soon Bella was no longer satisfied with the slope of the primary ski trail, and turned to challenge the intermediate ski trail.

There were far fewer people on the intermediate ski trails, and the snow on the slides was still fluffy and soft, looking crystal clear. Bella adjusted the angle and slid down decisively.

The slope of the intermediate level is larger than that of the primary level, and the acceleration of the descent is significantly greater, and the reason for the snow accumulation makes it difficult to control the skis stuck in the snow.Bella took a solid fall on her first slide.It seemed that a hand had lifted her clothes, and the snow had crept in, giving her a chill from the ice.However, the cold was quickly driven away by the warming spell, and Bella stood up after a lot of effort, pulled herself together, and continued to slide down.

She was very cautious for the rest of the journey, tightly controlling the minimum speed, and finally reached the finish line without any danger.

With this experience, Bella returned to the starting point, skating down with confidence, and planned to turn a few turns with more difficulty...

However, it turned out that the intermediate ski trails were no better than the elementary ones, and Bella fell again.

Fortunately, this time she fell very skillfully, painlessly, and revived on the spot with full blood.

After playing for a long time, another coach came to her and said that Riddle was a fast learner and wanted to challenge the intermediate ski trails. Without the permission of an adult, the coach dared not let him play on the more dangerous ski trails.

Bella followed the coach back to the primary snow track, and Riddle was driving the veneer on the slope to slide s, w, and z, all kinds of tricks emerged one after another, and he was more daring than Bella.Bella looked at it and was eager to try it. She completely forgot her original intention, threw the coach aside, and chased after her.

Riddle was skiing vigorously when a figure approached from behind, and he recognized Bella in the red ski suit.However, his speed did not decrease but increased, and he even turned several turns, as if he was provoking Bella.Bella was aroused by him, and went all out to accelerate the pursuit, and at the same time, not to be outdone, turned the opposite direction to intercept.

The two chased and fled, having a great time.

In the end, because of lack of physical strength, Riddle made a sharp turn and even threw him with the board.

Bella, who was following behind, had her heart beating like a beating. In desperation, she used the Wandless Levitation Charm, half-hanging her body and rushed over, hugging Riddle, protecting him and rolling several times in the snow.Finally, Bella stopped her figure with the skis on her feet.

The two were panting heavily, half of their bodies sunk in the snow, and neither of them moved.

There was silence in the snow.

Riddle heard his own violent heartbeat, and they hugged each other like that, their bodies covered in snow, the white mist they breathed dissipated around their mouths, and the exchange of each other's breaths was chaotic and disorderly.

After a while, Riddle, who had regained his strength, was the first to turn over and jump up, pulling Bella up to check her body: "How are you?"

Bella waved her hand and stood up neatly: "I'm fine. Don't forget, I'm an adult wizard anyway. But you, are you tired? Let's go to the hut to rest first."

Riddle was worried about her body, and nodded in agreement.

No one mentioned the strange silence just now.

Bella booked a VIP room in the ski resort lounge.Drinking hot mutton soup next to the warm stove, I feel that the whole person is alive.

"How's Muggle entertainment?" Bella asked in a good mood.

"It's impressive." Riddle thought of a recently learned word to describe it, his whole face was flushed, and his excitement hadn't subsided, "I still want to try the intermediate ski trail, it won't bother me. My goal is Ski once on the advanced ski track!"

Bella seemed more confident than he: "You will do it."

The Dark Lord is omnipotent.

——Oh yes, it's the mentality of a fan of brains again.

In the afternoon, Bella accompanied Riddle to the intermediate ski trail, and thoroughly saw the madness and toughness in Riddle's bones.

Stepping on the veneer and standing at the starting point, Riddle slid down without even saying hello.Facing the intermediate slide that was several degrees steeper, Riddle didn't have the slightest fear. If you could see his eyes under the goggles, you would find that there was a burning fighting spirit in it—obviously the Dark Lord was the same as his Death Eaters I like challenging challenges.

The single board is more difficult to control than the double board. Riddle boldly challenged the S-shaped curve on the intermediate slide, but he was a little unable to support it at the first corner.

Seeing that he was about to slip, Riddle was alone, kicked the board, fell into a ball and rolled to a stop.

Bella was worried enough, but the coach on the side couldn't help clapping: "What a boy! It's a wonderful fall!"

Bella glared at him unhappily, and the coach smiled: "This boy is very talented. He has to dare to fall and be able to fall when skiing. It's not unreasonable for him to learn so fast."

Over there, Riddle has found the board and set off again, continuing to challenge the skating with a fearless posture.

Sure enough, he fell again without hesitation.

Bella couldn't stand it anymore, she slid over to try to persuade him, but when she got closer, she found that the brat was lying on the snowdrift and laughing.

Bella couldn't help but stopped.

Riddle didn't notice her approaching, jumped up briskly and continued skating, then fell, then got up and skating again.Instead of being intimidated by the fall, he became more frustrated and courageous, gliding and falling passionately!

This was a side of Riddle that he had never seen before.

Bella looked at the figure of the young man who fell and got up, and the energetic appearance seemed to be right in front of her eyes.The blood in her chest was gradually ignited——

Once upon a time, she followed him so passionately, constantly learning, exercising, and fighting.

She has never retreated from the enemy and difficulties, and the failure of the mission will only make her work harder.This is how she became stronger step by step, approaching him step by step.

Unfortunately, in the end, she could only approach him infinitely.

All her youth and frivolity, all her youth, were dedicated to him.

No regrets.

It's just that the most regretful thing in the past was that I couldn't be young with him, couldn't exchange youth with him, and couldn't share those passions and enthusiasm with him.

Now, what a wonderful fate.

Make this possible.

Let Bella gradually recall those youthful and fearless years.

She slammed her ski pole and slid to the ropeway.

Back at the starting point of the intermediate slide, Bella felt the blood surging in her chest and set off without hesitation.

The icy wind blows her curly hair, fluttering behind her like a frantic black butterfly, the snowboard slides and turns with control, and a large snow field slides under her feet.With the increase of speed, he shuttled across the snow field as fast as lightning, bypassing the withered grass and rocks that popped up occasionally, and the whole person seemed to be flying on the snow.

Bella was immersed in the hearty sense of speed, and shouted with forgetfulness.

The bold and unconstrained voice quickly passed away in my ears, echoing the boy Riddle's laughter, and spread to an unknown distance.

Maybe it's the other side of time, maybe it's the end of memory.

She felt her blood and youth seemed to return to her body.

Or rather, they never left.

No matter how old people live, they can regain their youth.

The whole afternoon, the two of them slipped and fell on the intermediate ski track like crazy people... and finally ended the day's snow carnival with injuries all over their bodies.

However, this crazy approach also made the skiing skills of the two advance by leaps and bounds, and Riddle was persuaded by the coach to join the skiing world.

"Listen to me, boy, you will be the most potential skiing star!" the coach vowed.

"Thanks for the compliment. I think I'll consider it." Riddle answered flawlessly.

Night fell.After resting in the VIP room for a while, Bella pulled Riddle out.

"What else?" Riddle was already full of expectations.

Bella smiled mysteriously: "Come with me."

They took the cable car to the top of another mountain.There, there was already a staff member waiting for them.

Riddle saw a two-person sleigh ready to go and knew what was going on right away.

"This is today's sideshow," Bella explained. "They didn't want to do it tonight, but a little money solved the problem."

Although Riddle was skeptical about the amount of "little money," he accepted the arrangement with joy.

The two got on the sled, the staff blew a whistle, and several sled dogs shot out like arrows off the string.

The sled dogs only took them for a run, and then Bella let go of the rope, allowing the sled to slide freely on the rough hillside.

Tobogganing is not the same as skiing.

Riddle and Bella stood next to each other, screaming in unison as the sled bumped from time to time, venting their daily pent-up emotions.

For a moment, the sky and the earth seemed to open up, and the mountain wind from the wilderness blew in from afar, washing away the earth illuminated by the stars.

Not only the young Riddle, but even Bella felt the power of nature in this magnificent scenery and dazzling speed.

Any humiliation and injustice are insignificant under such great power.

As great as nature is, a person is as small as he is; as small as a person is, as great as he is.

At some point, the sled deviated from the fixed route and slid across the dark snow-capped mountains.

The hill became steeper and steeper. Gradually, both Bella and Riddle felt the speed was out of control.

To make matters worse, the sled suddenly bumped into a protruding dead tree and swayed to one side. Riddle stood up quickly and saw that there was a cliff over there!

"Jump off! Bella! There's a cliff over there!" Riddle was the first to think of Bella, yelling and trying to push her off.Bella held Riddle tightly, she was extremely calm at the moment, showing the aura of an elite Death Eater, she said in a deep voice, "Hold on to me, don't move."

The wand appeared in her hand: "There are many obstacles! There are many obstacles! Armor protection!"

Casting three curses in a row, the speed of the sled dropped sharply, and finally stopped dangerously on the edge of a cliff.

It sounds long, but in fact all this happened in just a few seconds.

Riddle, who was still in shock, sat back in the sleigh, which gave him a sense of reality.

Bella gave him a comforting hug: "Don't worry, I'm here."

Her voice was quiet and her arms were gentle.Riddle felt his heart strangely calm down.

It seemed that the whole world was at ease under his feet, but in his heart there was only the peace that was like the rest of his life at this moment.

"Thank you, Bella...I believe in you."

Bella took a deep breath. Just now she was as strong and calm as a battle-tested warrior, but at this moment she lost her balance because of the young man's words—what was even more inconceivable than the Dark Lord thanking others was that he said he believed her.

Trying to calm down the turbulent mood, Bella said to herself: You have more important things to do, be strong, Bellatrix!

Breathing out silently, Bella counted the time and showed Riddle a meaningful smile: "It's still too early to thank me."

Just when Riddle was puzzled, the sky suddenly lit up, and the explosion of fireworks came from a distance!

Riddle looked up in disbelief, the deep silence of the night sky was stirred up by clusters of fireworks.Blossoming fiery trees and silver flowers are blooming in the dark sky, wantonly snatching the brilliance of the stars.

"Happy birthday." Bella whispered in his ear.

The embers of the fireworks fell from the sky, like flame spirits, carrying the dreams of the sleeping stars.

Riddle's eyes turned red in disbelief.
