Chapter 82 Heartbroken Jingle Bells

Harry's first birthday was a quiet and sweet one, with only James, Lily, Charlotte and Mrs Bagshot present.Since Mrs. Bagshot was near, Sirius had given her the address as a secret keeper, so she came often.She also gave Lily a cat, the same color as her Wendelin, who was still very small, and especially liked little Harry.

As for little Harry, in addition to being stuck between his mother and godmother, he also fell in love with a new toy, which was a birthday present from Sirius - a toy magic broom.

Indeed, as Lily said, her and James' children must be good at flying.Harry, who is only one year old, can already fly around on a broomstick, although the little broomstick can only be two feet off the ground.James even boldly concluded that Harry would become a Quidditch star in the future.

Lily rescued the ugly vase that Petunia gave, Charlotte held the kitten that was almost killed in her arms, and the two watched helplessly as James, the silly father, chased after Harry excitedly.To be honest, this is the happiest time for him recently.

"I don't know when Dumbledore will return the Invisibility Cloak, I think the fork is going to be depressed." Lily sighed.

"Maybe Dumbledore borrowed the invisibility cloak because he was afraid that James would run away." Charlotte rolled her eyes in her heart, and put the kitten in a safe place. If you sneak out, you will be worried to death at home."

The restless James, because of the invisibility cloak inherited from the Potter family, occasionally sneaks out wearing the invisibility cloak.Once she came back from wearing an invisibility cloak and pretended to be a ghost to scare Charlotte, which made Charlotte very upset, and she has been waiting for an opportunity to get revenge.

"They don't have time to come." Lily pulled out her wand and moved the stool in front of Harry. "I don't know how the Order of the Phoenix is ​​doing. How long we have to hide."

Except for Peter who came here some time ago, Sirius and Remus haven't been here for a long time.Remus seemed to have been sent far away, and Sirius not only had to carry out the missions of the Order of the Phoenix, but also to avoid the Death Eaters.

"I hope it won't be too long." Charlotte rubbed the center of her brows. Although she can stay there, most of the time she needs to try to avoid being a light bulb.And only little Harry could make her less embarrassed.

Little Harry rushed towards Charlotte, and she skillfully picked him up from the broom and hugged him into her arms. Little Harry put his arms around Charlotte's neck and giggled, "Ah ", "Yeah".

"I'm sweating." Charlotte touched little Harry's back, "I'll take him to change clothes." Charlotte once again consciously left space for the husband and wife, which was what she did after the manor closed. most things.

One evening in mid-August, Charlotte was planting flowers with the stars in the garden.They opened up a large piece of land on the right side of the house as a flower garden. On the one hand, they can pass the time, and on the other hand, when the flowers bloom, Charlotte can make some scented tea.

"It's quite leisurely."

With such an annoying tone, Charlotte knew who was coming as soon as she heard it.She looked back, and it was indeed Sirius who hadn't visited for a long time, but Remus and Peter also came over together.

Charlotte raised her eyebrows. The last time the group of four got together was during the Phoenix Society meeting.What is it for again this time?She greeted Xing Xing and followed in.

Lily was sitting on the sofa reading a book, she didn't hold Harry in her arms, she probably put him to sleep.James was fiddling with a Snitch intently, apparently trying to figure out how to open it.

"Padfoot, Moon Face, Wormtail!" James jumped up, and he showed an excited and excited expression after not seeing his friend for a long time, "Why are you all here!"

"Not welcome?" Sirius opened his arms, and James went up to meet him, slapping Sirius on the back with a "bang bang".Not favoring one over another, James also gave Remus and Peter a warm hug.

"Is this an appointment?" James asked.

"Yes, Sirius told me that I must come." Even though the full moon was not yet reached, Remus looked a little tired.Peter nodded after listening to Remus's words, and he looked more shy and uneasy than before.

"Anything to announce?" Lily asked.She and Charlotte poured tea for the men, and Charlotte went to a chair in the corner and sat down.

"I thought of a good idea." Sirius said excitedly and proudly, "A wonderful idea."

"Tell me." James also became excited.

"The Death Eaters have been arresting me recently, just for the address of the Potter Manor. I thought about it. If the secret keeper is me, it's not safe enough." Sirius said slowly, "So I thought of a safer one. Way. Replace the Secret Keeper with Wormtail, he can dodge better than me, and with me in the way, the Death Eaters won't know they've got the wrong guy."

James was already on his feet, "It's really nice." He started pacing, "But if I could, I'd prefer not to have a Secret Keeper." He had had enough of being locked up, "What about the Death Eaters now? "

"Not very optimistic. Several large-scale attacks on Muggles were stopped by us in time, but some smaller operations are still taking place. This time Dumbledore's source of information seems to be a very cautious person, but this It also means that our battle situation is very anxious." Sirius said calmly, "So, I hope you can consider my suggestion."

"Very good." James sighed a little resignedly, "For Harry's safety, I have no objection."

"What about the others?" Sirius asked.

"Don't you ask Peter's opinion first?" Charlotte asked, "I think his opinion is the most important."

"Yes, bug, do you agree?" Lily asked.

Peter twisted his body uncomfortably, his shoulders shrunk all the time, and he said, "I...I think...I think it's okay." Where no one could see, a strange light flashed in his eyes, "I will Hide well."

"If Wormtail agrees, that's fine with me," said Remus.

Lily and Charlotte said in unison, "Me too."

"If all votes pass, it's decided." Sirius stood up, put his arm on Peter's shoulder and said, "Come on, let's change the secret keeper."

This episode passed quickly, and after changing the secret keeper, life in the manor remained unchanged.However, James may have been soothed by the arrival of his friends, and he is not as anxious as before.And Lily will help Charlotte take care of the flower garden together, planting the lilies that both of them like.

Careful grooming still bears fruit. When Halloween comes, the lily bushes are almost as high as a person's waist, and they bloom very beautifully.The outermost golden lily, the second layer is red lily, and the middle is white lily.The two colors of gold and red were strongly requested by James, and that is all he contributed to this flower garden.

In fact, white lilies are often regarded as a symbol of death by Muggles, but wizards have no such taboo. Charlotte likes white lilies, so the big one in the middle is what she strongly requested.

As the evening approached, Lily took little Harry's hands and practiced walking by the flowerbed. Little Harry always wanted to get into the flowers.

"It seems that I will love flowers in the future." Charlotte said, holding a watering can.

"I think it's a waste of flowers." Lily pulled Harry back with great effort, "I don't think I can find this little body if it gets into the flowers."

"You won't be able to catch him when he can walk." Charlotte laughed.

"Then put the magic pointer on him." Lily curled her lips, "But I think the fork may need the magic pointer more. He still can't help it, and he is writing to Dumbledore now. He wants to ask Dumbledore When will you return the invisibility cloak?"

"Perhaps he should ask Dumbledore when he can go out to let the wind go." Charlotte put down the watering can, and hugged little Harry who was kicking his legs, and little Harry immediately hugged Charlotte with ease neck, on her shoulders.

"With his temperament, it's too difficult for him to lock him up like this." Lily stretched her waist and arms, and said with a smile, "He's a free deer, always wanting to run outside."

Charlotte snorted and said, "I hope you always think so." I don't know who would be worried all day every time they saw James sneaking out.

"By the way, besides the turkey tonight, I'm going to cook for you." Charlotte picked off a lily petal, "I learned it in Huaguo, they put lily petals in the porridge, which is very fragrant."

"Pick it up and do it now?"

"Yes, I'll pick a plate of flower petals when it's getting dark, and it shouldn't be too difficult to cook porridge. The turkey is a bit greasy, and a bowl of porridge is guaranteed to be just right. You can look forward to it!"

It gets dark very quickly at the end of October.Before the darkness fell completely, Charlotte and the stars shuttled among the flowers and picked petals.Suddenly, Charlotte's heart skipped a beat, and the leaf accidentally cut her finger.She frowned and put her finger next to her lips, her always keen intuition made her look towards the entrance of the manor.

Under the darkening sky, a figure gradually appeared. He was wearing a black wizard robe and a hood.Charlotte couldn't see his face clearly, but she knew it was not a good person.

"Who are you?" Charlotte shouted, Xing Xing stood in front of Charlotte vigilantly, and also looked at the strange wizard.

The strange wizard who hadn't noticed someone in the flowers stopped in his tracks.He turned to look at Charlotte, a red light flashed in his eyes.Without warning, a red light shot out from the tip of his wand, and it came towards Charlotte faster than Charlotte had ever seen before, and she turned away as best she could.But the next spell followed immediately, and the star stood in front of Charlotte, and fell stiffly among the flowers.

"Mr. Butler!" Charlotte exclaimed.

"Interesting..." The strange wizard's voice was low and sticky, as if he was interested in something interesting, "Who are you? Ah, the smell of a despicable Mudblood." He laughed lowly, It was like straight out of the throat, "I know you, yes, a mudblood squib who can move freely among dragons. Interesting... really interesting... let me see what you're capable of. "

The strange wizard raised his wand again.

"What are you doing!" James rushed out after hearing the voice. He didn't understand the situation, but his fighting instinct made him draw his wand.

The strange wizard shook his wrist tightly, causing James to fall against the wall without any effort.He said to James with a hint of displeasure: "Wait a minute, it's not your turn yet, disobedient little guy." Then he looked at Charlotte again.

In the gradually rising moonlight, Charlotte saw those red eyes.Those eyes were terrifying, evil, and vicious, and she was full of horror in her heart.Voldemort, this is Voldemort!

While pulling up the star, Charlotte yelled at James who got up from the ground: "Voldemort! This is Voldemort!" Another curse struck, and Charlotte avoided it with difficulty, "James, hurry up and take Lily with you!" Let Harry go!" At this moment, she wanted to take the star into the house immediately.

"All petrification!" James didn't listen, his face flushed with anger, and he picked up his wand and cast a spell on Voldemort.But as soon as Voldemort lifted his hand, the curse was blocked by an invisible wall, and it had no effect at all.

However, Voldemort used another spell conveniently. There was a huge "plop" sound, the door frame of the house was broken, and a large hole was connected to it. James was beaten into the house. Lily screamed, she was shouting : "Fork! Fork! What's wrong with you!"

Voldemort didn't care about James and Lily anymore, but looked at Charlotte with interest.Charlotte was about to use her fastest speed to rush into the house, but she didn't have time to show the speed she was proud of. The second after the low "Tong Tong petrified" sounded, her hands and feet seemed to be caught Trapped in a statue, unable to move at all, the only thing that can move is her eyeball.

Voldemort walked towards Charlotte, and Charlotte finally saw him clearly.The fuzzy facial features, red eyes, and oppressive aura all over the body made Charlotte feel unstoppable fear.

Voldemort glanced at Charlotte contemptuously, and a terrible smile appeared on his invisible lips, "Look, there is no difference, weak..."

His wand was aimed at Charlotte's wrist, and with a "snap", the stiff Charlotte knew clearly that her hand was broken, and the huge pain filled her head. She wanted to scream, but she couldn't speak out.At this moment, she suddenly realized the horror of Voldemort, which can only be felt by facing Voldemort directly.

Voldemort didn't stop, he looked like he was playing with ants, "humble...", he whispered softly in Charlotte's ears, but it was like a thunderbolt, which made her extremely painful. The second is the legs.

Tears gushed out of Charlotte's bloodshot eyes as if desperately, and the beautiful blue was suddenly streaked with blood.Charlotte felt dizzy in his head, and all the sounds in his ears seemed to come from outside the sky.She heard Piao Miao's terrible laughter, "It seems that I can't play with you anymore. They are all ants, they can't be let go, can't they?"

A cold and sharp object pointed at Charlotte's heart.Charlotte could not see what it was, nor did she notice what it was.The pain had already taken over Charlotte's mind, leaving her with no time to think about other things.Until a whispering voice came from her ear: "Avada Kedavra."

There was darkness in front of Charlotte's eyes, "Ding Dong", there was a huge rippling sound in her head, "Ding Dong", her body became lighter and lighter, and the pain was getting farther and farther away from her, "Ding Dong, Ding dong", she seemed to float up.

Under the blowing of the night wind, Charlotte regained her sight.This feeling is not unfamiliar, she has experienced it after the cursed village was attacked by dementors.Her soul has left her body again!

Before she had time to look back at her body, Charlotte kicked her feet and floated into the living room.The living room was already a mess. James was lying on the floor, his broken glasses fell aside, and his wand was in his hand, but he hadn't breathed for a long time.

Charlotte reached out tremblingly to push James, but her hand passed straight through James' body, unable to touch at all. "Yes, yes, this is my soul, and I can't touch anything," murmured Charlotte.

A terrible premonition swirled in Charlotte's mind. She stared at the translucent palm, and looked at James' heart through the glass-like palm. There was no ups and downs, and naturally there was no temperature.Just like she is now, she can't feel her own heartbeat, nor her own temperature.

Harry's loud cry exploded in Charlotte's ears, and Charlotte finally got out of the horrible thoughts, she yelled "Lily, Harry", and rushed to Harry's baby room .The cry came from there.What she didn't notice was that a ball of milky white light floated from James' body and fell into her palm.

The baby's room was at the innermost side of the second floor, and Charlotte had already appeared in front of the baby's room with one breath.What came into view was Voldemort's back and the blinding green light from the tip of his wand.Charlotte stretched out her hand, but it couldn't stop Lily's beautiful green eyes from losing their color in an instant.

Something stuck in Charlotte's throat, and once again, she saw her relatives die in front of her.And the next moment, Voldemort's wand was aimed at Harry.Charlotte rushed towards Harry frantically, and opened her arms to block Harry, "You are not allowed to hurt him! You damned despicable, coward!"

But no matter how hoarse she yelled, the green light from the tip of Voldemort's wand still struck straight at Harry.Green light passed through Charlotte's body, and a vortex appeared above her head.The huge suction plundered Charlotte's senses, she desperately wanted to grab Lily, wanted to grab Harry, but she couldn't grab anything except a cloud of milky white light.

In her blurred vision, she saw Voldemort's wide eyes, and his body crumbled to ashes.Soon, she disappeared into the whirlpool above her head, leaving only little Harry on the shaker watching a ball of blue light slowly disappear.

Severus felt a pain in his heart, and the rose in his hand pricked his finger, causing a sharp pain.That was what Lucius had just given him. In order to get information, he had to come to this Death Eater party, a party called the "Celebration Banquet".However, the Death Eaters had done little to celebrate in recent months.

Walking quickly to Lucius' side, Severus stuffed the rose back into Lucius' hand, his heart was uneasy for no reason, he felt that he should leave the party, because it had been more than an hour, Voldemort still hadn't arrived, which meant no intelligence.

"Where are you going? Severus." Lucius asked, playing with the rose that Severus had stuffed into his hand with his left hand, and shaking the goblet of red wine in his right hand.

Severus paused, yeah, where could he go.Potter Manor was hidden, and he never saw Charlotte.But his inner unease was urging him: go and see, go and see.

"Luke!" Narcissa walked over, and behind her was the haughty Bella, a crazy woman and a fanatical supporter of Voldemort.

"Sissy." Lucius put his arms around Narcissa's waist, passed the rose in front of Narcissa by the way, then put on his usual smirk, and nodded to Bella behind Narcissa.

Bella gave a strange laugh, and looked at Lucius and Severus with disdain, "Lucius, what you should think about is how to regain glory in front of your master, instead of mixing with lowly half-breeds."

Lucius, who was kicked out of his position as a trusted confidant because he couldn't find the Potter Manor for a long time, still had an impeccable smirk, but the words he showed from between his teeth revealed his dissatisfaction, "Your last action also failed. Right? Everyone is the same..."

"Oh! One failure doesn't mean anything." Bella laughed sharply, her beautiful face distorted like a ghost. "After tonight, the master will take us on a greater journey."

"What are you going to celebrate tonight?" Narcissa asked with some apprehension.

Because it was her biological sister's question, Bella was happy to answer it. She held her chin up and said, "This is the master's celebration banquet to celebrate his breaking the damned prophecy."

Severus' heart skipped a beat, not even Occlumency could contain his surprise and fear.He asked tremblingly, "Po...Potter?"

"Of course." Bella said sharply, "Who made a traitor among their friends, hahahahaha."

Severus could no longer hear any words, and endless panic filled his heart.He ignored the three people in front of him and the group of people around him, turned and left the hall.Quickly stepping out of the range of the manor's anti-apparition spell, Severus immediately Apparated towards the target in his mind.

The streets of Godric's Hollow were silent, and Charlotte's manor was silent.Using the flying technique taught to him by Voldemort, Severus quickly flew in the direction of Potter Manor.

The Porter Manor stood quietly in the vast night. Under the moonlight, the tattered door, half of the roof collapsed like ruins, and the only two remaining flickering lights came into Severus' eyes one by one.

His hands trembled unconsciously, and his legs felt weak.It took what seemed like a lifetime of effort, and Severus rushed into the house, pausing for a second as he passed James' body in the living room.Stepping faster, he leaned on the wall and moved to Harry's nursery.

Harry was sitting on the crib crying, Lily fell in front of the crib, already lost the breath of life.Severus knelt down on the ground, nudged Lily slightly as if he was afraid, and the cold touch told him that his friend had already lost his life.

His whole body felt as if he had been whipped, and he felt biting pain and cold.But he had to get up, and where was Charlotte, where was Charlotte!He had to find Charlotte!

Harry watched curiously as Severus rummaged around the room, a tear hanging dully on his lower eyelid.But soon, Severus walked out of the nursery leaning on the wall.

Not in the living room, not in the study, even under the ruins.Severus forgot his wand and magic, and frantically brushed away the rubble, no no no no!He turned every corner, and there was no sign of Charlotte.

There was a small hope in Severus' heart, maybe Charlotte escaped?She's so fast, she's so strong, and at worst... there are stars, and the house-elf will take her away, right?

Right..."Impossible, it's impossible for Charlotte to leave Lily and go alone." A cold voice in his head told him.So where are you?My Charlotte, my Lottie.

Severus produced the Moon Bell that had been in his pocket all along.Once through it, Severus could often hear Charlotte's thoughts.He never slammed it, fearing that his response would keep Charlotte from ever stepping out of the Death Eater's shadow.

But now, he had to shake it and let it guide him. "Jingle bell." Severus rang the bell in his hand, and the small, almost inaudible response drifted into Severus' ears with the cold wind.

He swallowed nervously, his heart beating faster.

"Dingling bell." Severus carefully identified, outside the door, that was the voice outside the door.He walked slowly outside the door, the night filled the land, and the icy moonlight sprinkled on the manor, giving Severus a panoramic view.

"Dinglingling." Although the voice was still a bit dull, it was much clearer.Severus looked in the direction of the voice, and there was a rickety clump of lilies, Charlotte's favorite flower.He held his breath, but hesitantly didn't want to go there. The lily bush opened its black mouth towards him like a man-eating thorn.

"Jingle bell." But the sound was there, and Severus moved his legs tremblingly, and walked towards the flowerbed as if he had exhausted all his strength.

Finally Severus stood beside the flowers, the waist-length flowers quietly blooming in the moonlight, but he had no time to care about the gold and red that he hated.Only the pale and bloodless face among the white flowers pierced his eyes like needles, causing him to cry in pain.

The wind was howling, ruffling Severus' robes.He felt that his body was extremely cold, from the heart to every blood vessel was frozen, he forgot to breathe, forgot everything, he only had that familiar face in his eyes, that face that was always smiling, that It is the face he misses day and night engraved in his mind.

That was his Charlotte, his Lottie, his love.

Severus could no longer support his weak body and fell to his knees on the ground.He numbly stretched out his hand to touch Charlotte's body, which was cold and stiff, not as soft and warm as before.

Gently hugging Charlotte into her arms, her twisted and unnaturally hanging arms hit the ground with a "clang".Severus touched Charlotte's broken arm tremblingly, as if he couldn't bear it anymore, he let out a heart-piercing roar of pain.

Charlotte's appearance overlaps with that of Jason's fiancée.Severus' fear and worry became reality after all, he lost his heart and the strength to live.

The author has something to say:

Since the separation from Charlotte, Severus had often heard Charlotte ring the bell, but he had never voluntarily.Unexpectedly, the first initiative was to find Charlotte's body.

This is the turning point!It's HE!I swear! (Top lid)
