Although the future is unknowable, we all think that the script of life should have a long time to write, and because of such a fluke mentality, we unknowingly squander a lot of the present that will never return, and become one sad face after another. .We can't stop the passage of time, and it's useless to protest the injustice of fate. The only thing we can do is to turn the ups and downs of life into a moving story.

—— "My Journey and Memoirs"

In the end, Liesel "accepted" Snape's proposal, but she did not bring a drawing board, nor any paper and pens, let alone Snape's company, and walked alone in the mountains.Sporadic fungi germinated in the grass that had just been drenched in rain, and the insects temporarily living in the soil stretched their muscles and bones and crawled towards the sun.Liesel followed the trail over the hillside and stopped by the spring in the mountain stream.She took a deep breath of the rich water vapor and the smell of moist grass, and the rich colors around her rushed to her face, but she couldn't blow away her strong thoughts.

After a while, she sat beside the stone, and took out a neatly folded letter from her pocket. Judging from the stamp on the cover and the newly stamped postmark, it was from Paris, the capital of art across the strait.This is not a long personal letter. She has already read the content on it, but she has not replied for two days.

"My Vesper," the letter read, "you have no idea how excited I am when I get the news that you are finally willing to put your next exhibition in my humble gallery I was told from someone else). I know you must be laughing at me for always being emotional. Goodness behold, I am delighted by you. Therefore, I am writing in advance to invite you in my own name for this unfeeling request. Not only bring the core works of your art exhibition, but also please come to the art exhibition in person on the same day. You know that you have many admirers here. What's more, since the end of our short study period, we have never seen each other separated by the English Channel. You always captured by your works We, we are deeply hidden in England. It is a rare opportunity given to me by God. Please agree to it based on the friendship between you and me in the past. Enclosed is a promotional postcard I designed with your paintings. The official invitation letter for the exhibition will be issued later.”

The handwriting on the letter is round and delicate, the design of the letter paper also reveals elegance and chic, and the signature on the signature is even more eloquent: "Always loyal to you Elsville Lyon"

Liesel sighed and folded the letter paper. It is true that she hadn't contacted Elsevier for a long time. They met at a French study and exchange seminar.Eswell Lyon is a very talkative Frenchman who looks like a younger version of French movie star Jean Dujardin when he smiles.She still remembered that when he talked about artistic imagination, he could say that he didn't want to sleep at all for a whole night.

At that time, their relationship tended to be closer. If Liesel hadn't deliberately kept a distance, after all, the French are always very romantic, and the artists are even more sparks.She didn't want to develop in the Muggle art world, she just wanted to communicate. In terms of art, the Muggle world developed rapidly to express freedom and boldness, while the wizarding world paid more attention to drawing portraits of wizards, and was rarely famous for her unique and original achievements.

As Boyce puts it: "Our portrait family is as formal as the Olliband family's wand business is, retreating into the background, but we want to be more low-key and to the point."

Later, especially because of Snape's return, she almost never went to France again, but only heard that Eswell Lyon went to the United States to develop.If it wasn't for her anticipation of the decline of her magic power, and then she began to gradually turn to the Muggle art world, including art exhibitions and collections, it would be difficult for them to get in touch again.

The postcard was poured out from the envelope, it was a painting not long ago, the colorful and changing lines showed the author's bright mood, it was also the masterpiece of their settlement period after Snape's "accidental" return.She thought of the happy days they had together, decorating the house together, discussing plans for their lives.It's just that the plan can't keep up with the new changes now.She has made up her mind in the past two days and has decided to accept the invitation for this appearance. At least until she becomes a Squib in the future, she needs to maintain her reputation in the Muggle art world a little more to ensure that she will still be there after leaving here. Some financial base to get on with life.

While she was flipping through the letter, Harry had already used the Disillusionment Charm to hide in the bushes not far away. He wandered here early after he got the news from Snape.Just wandering and observing, hesitating and not daring to act lightly.

Harry saw Liesel lingering by the river and took out the letter. He immediately found a more suitable position and cast a peeping spell on his eyes, trying to read the words on the letter.But what made him struggle was that behind Liesel he could only see the contents of the first few sentences of the letter and the strange initial title.He had just had time to remember the strange name when he saw Liesel take out the very attractive postcard.

Liesel put the postcard in the palm of his hand, flicked his wrist, and the small cardboard was suspended in the air.Harry thought it was an abstract line drawing technique at first. He had seen Picasso's paintings in Dali's art textbook.But to his surprise, under the command of Liesel's slender and flexible fingers, the small cardboard began to rotate, disperse and transform. With the fairy-like twinkling starlight, the lines in the painting also changed, and it could be seen from every angle. Constituting a new image, the vaguely changing scenery and the portrait appearing in the landscape immediately reminded Harry of the magic photo, where people can have an action before and after the freeze frame.Even if it was shown long enough Harry was sure it would show a short dynamic story situation, and he was beginning to see that there was something of Snape in the painting.

When Harry was enjoying such a painting technique, which was a completely new experience for him, suddenly Liesel's wrist seemed to be hit by an impact, and the postcard was brushed like a broken thread. The kite slammed directly into the water as if out of control, and she didn't even care about the scattered letters in her hand, she could only watch them being carried away with the rushing stream.

Liesel's face turned pale, and the quiet expression just now became flustered due to poor breathing. She panted heavily, but the air that could reach her lungs was far from what she needed.Every time he tried to stand up, he failed in vain, and finally fell to the water's edge.She leaned against the stone with difficulty, covering the position of her heart with one hand, and fumbled in her pocket tremblingly with the other.

By the time Harry realized the sudden change in front of him, Liesel had difficulty breathing and was dizzy. He stood up anxiously from the bushes, and rushed over immediately without thinking too much. After all, as a Gryffindor, this is his instinct.Holding Liesel's shoulders, Harry anxiously called out her name while pulling out his wand and racking his brains on which healing spell to use first.

"Medicine...medicine..." Liesel's fingers had already reached the medicine bottle in his pocket.She also didn't care about how Harry appeared suddenly, and her vision had already been blurred by lack of oxygen in front of her eyes.

Harry quickly took the strangely colored bottle and poured it down for her, and the potion took effect in the blink of an eye, at least she seemed to calm down immediately and was able to breathe smoothly.With his wand in his hand, Harry was weighing whether to use the Calming Charm first or the Test Charm Snape taught without side effects, or how to use both without being detected.But he was too worried about these.The current stable situation only lasted for a minute or two, and the bottle in Liesel's hand was just not far from her mouth, and she couldn't care less about saying thank you to Harry, and started coughing violently again until it became A tendency to retch.

Harry was completely at a loss as to whether this was a normal reaction to drinking the potion or a side effect. Anyway, in his experience of drinking potions, it was all disgusting and never felt better, so he had to pat Liesel's back gently. Back expectations can play a certain role in relief.Then he turned a small stone into a cup and scooped up the stream water to Liesel.

After a while, Liesel took the cup gratefully, took a deep breath before speaking: "Thank you, thank you very much, if I didn't have you, I would have to toss like this for at least half an hour. Now, you can put away the wand with peace of mind Now, there is usually no suitable spell for this kind of situation. You can only endure the force. It is very imprudent for you to hold it like this."

"If you don't mind, can I ask you what's going on?" Harry wiped the sweat from his brow with the tissue that Lissel handed him, and sat down on a relatively flat gravel opposite her, After listening to Liesel's words, he put away his wand and asked with concern.

Although Liesel was weak, her eyes were unambiguous. She seemed to have estimated it before slowly opening her mouth: "The old disease left by heart disease many years ago, the situation just now looks terrible but not fatal. It's just that coughing is more It was better than before."

Harry nodded, but he didn't fully believe her statement. A heart attack would definitely be fatal. Harry was sure that she had just had difficulty breathing.

"You are not surprised that I am a wizard? Or can I assume that you knew it from the beginning? Know who I am?" Although it was a question sentence, Harry used a declarative tone.

Liesel smiled softly, but completely relaxed after seeing Harry's serious look. "I didn't know who you were at first, but I know who you are now. Your brow is sweating."

Harry was shocked, but secretly concealed his color, but to be cautious, he still lowered his head and scratched his bangs with his hands, only to find that the paper towel he wiped his sweat had really stained his foundation, and his lightning scar had faded a lot after the battle , and the kind of foundation he usually uses to cover the marks is waterproof and anti-flaking.And this tissue was just given to him by Liesel, and even in such a situation, he was able to be placed again. Sure enough, Auror training was not suitable for him, and Harry was a little frustrated.

"So we're officially acquainted now, right, Mr. Potter?" Liesel's slowly recovering expression made her gradually as quiet and beautiful as when they first met, but now she was a little more shrewd and teasing.

Although Harry had expected that Snape's idea of ​​asking him to investigate would ultimately fail, it also occurred to him that he had exposed himself completely and prematurely.He had no choice but to sincerely nod to his surname, but he also wanted to make a statement:

"I believe that since you can directly say my surname, you also know the meaning of it at the moment, so you can also relax your vigilance and guard against me. I am really a passerby here." Harry said .It also took 0.1 second to reflect on whether it was Gryffindor's bad habit of being too curious, or his own troublesome physique had deepened.

Because of Harry's stupefaction that he was shocked but wanted to save himself, and that he wanted to know more and pretended to be passing by, Liesel felt in his heart that this young man was much more interesting than the previous rumors said. , at least hundreds of times more cute than Snape's least sarcastic "pertinent" evaluation.

"Of course, of course I believe you. Young people like to travel, who doesn't. Harry, can I still call you that?" Harry nodded, Liesel stood up, and Harry followed closely to support her After all, she still has a deep memory of the scene just now.But Liesel thanked him lightly and pushed his hand away, as if she didn't stop to rest just now because of the strangeness, they seemed to meet by chance while walking in the forest, walking forward leisurely with a calm expression.

"Let's go, let's have a drink together. Oh yes! Don't forget the notebook you dropped in the grass over there." Liesel walked forward first, with a smile on his face, and he knew to pack up behind him without thinking. Harry followed with a good book, looking a little annoyed, depressed and flustered.

The author has something to say: I am really very, very very sorry, I have been busy these days, but it is all that kind of chaotic things, so I don’t have enough time to code well, and I finished this piecemeal chapter.Originally, I was even slower, and I am really sorry for making everyone wait so long.
