[HP Draco] Attendant

Chapter 162 chapter·16

When Dumbledore found Madeleine, she was in the Room of Requirement. She had kept the common room to the Room of Requirement for a long time. During this time, she hardly spoke to anyone. Only Snape and Draco could talk to her. A few words.

She unexpectedly didn't settle accounts with Helena.

To be precise, she didn't even look for Helena.

"What do you see?"

Dumbledore lowered his head slightly, looked at Madeleine who was sitting in front of a mirror, and asked softly.

"If you come to accuse me, you don't have to." Madeleine replied, she straightened her somewhat messy hair, and then replied with a sigh: "I'm just thinking about how to make my life better." Just like in the mirror."

Dumbledore looked at the mirror - the Mirror of Erised. It is not surprising that Madeleine would know its existence. Harry often faced this mirror in the first grade, because this mirror Can print his heart's desire, that is, Harry's family.But at that time, Dumbledore persuaded him to leave, but Madeleine was not someone who would leave here so easily. Dumbledore sighed softly, stretched out his hand, and patted Madeleine on the head.

Madeleine didn't resist very much, she just looked at the mirror quietly without saying anything.

Dumbledore asked again: "What did you see?"

Madeleine was silent for a long time, and replied in a low voice: "I see that I am smiling, my important people are all around me, we are spending Christmas - I am smiling without burden, just like I am As it should be."

"Dumbledore, I've thought about it for a long time... According to the memory of that time, you and I met before entering school, and my inexplicable familiarity with Moody... Did I meet you and me before returning to the Bock's house?" Moody? Did you ask my parents to pick me up?" Madeleine lowered her head, pressed against the mirror, closed her eyes, and felt the coldness of the mirror.Dumbledore imitated Madeleine and sat on the ground. He looked in the mirror, stretched out his hand, and patted Madeleine's shoulder.

When he was about to answer Madeleine, Madeleine trembled a little, and said in a low voice: "Don't tell me the answer, I will try harder—so, don't tell me the answer, Dumbledore profitable."

Even if all this was false at the beginning, it is very real to me now.

Dumbledore's hands stiffened for a moment. He looked at the small child and said softly, "Thank you, Madeleine."

Madeleine didn't stop talking, she raised her head again and looked at the mirror. Inside, she smiled brightly, and the Burkes, Snape, Draco and other people who were important to her were inside.Finally, she sighed and stood up: "I will try my best, as long as my important person is still around, it doesn't matter if I persist for a few years."

"Tell me, Dumbledore, what do you need me to do next."

"I will do my best to achieve my goal."

Once upon a time, there was a little child.

"Dumbledore, I found that woman who had a child - I think you need to go and see."

She looked at the white-haired old man, blinked her dull blue eyes, and then slowly opened them wide, and those eyes that were originally devoid of spirit gradually filled with curiosity.

【"Miss Madeleine Burke...you may not know it, but I saw you a long time ago."】

"Grandpa, why don't I know what you're thinking?"

【"I can't control it. Sometimes they come and go. I didn't hear the sound after I came to Bok Manor. I thought I was fine."】

"This is a kind of ability, and at your current age, there is no way to control it." Dumbledore knelt down, stretched out his hand, and held the girl's hand: "Do you... want to see your father?"

[When she returned to her father's house, there was a strong sense of contrast. At least before the black-haired man took her home, Madeleine thought she had no father. 】

At the beginning, when she saw Mrs. Bork, Madeleine Bork was ashamed from the bottom of her heart. She couldn't look directly at the woman's face, so she didn't realize that when she first saw her, she was so undisguised. resistance and disgust.

Then, the girl dedicated her heart to her future family.

Almost on the same day, Mrs. Bork learned of the scars on the girl's body. The girl cringed, and seemed to feel that her scars and her past were her greatest shame.

【"I'm sorry, I messed up this banquet, I didn't control my emotions, please don't throw me away, I will do better—"】

After that, she could no longer look at the little girl who hugged her wholeheartedly with disgusted eyes.

"Dumbledore, why do you want to take away our Horcruxes at this time." Mrs. Bork took Hufflepuff's gold cup and handed it to Mr. Bork. In the double-sided mirror, Dumbledore sighed, not counting He replied in agreement: "Because Madeleine and Harry were chosen by the Goblet of Fire, I probably know Voldemort's purpose... We need to let Tom gain a certain amount of power in the Horcrux to compete with Voldemort..."

"...I still can't accept that you lied to us for two years—Dumbledore! There is such an uncertain factor around Madeleine—" Mr. Burke frowned, and said in a not-so-happy manner.Mrs. Bork stretched out her hand and pulled Mr. Bork. Mr. Bork stopped talking.

"In itself, Madeleine is also an uncertain factor," said Dumbledore.

"...We hope she can grow up well." Mrs. Bork said to Dumbledore: "I don't want to believe you wrong again."

Dumbledore closed his eyes and sighed.

【The Bocks nodded. Before Draco left the infirmary, he saw the Bocks pull out the diary from Madeleine's arms, and then put it under Madeleine's pillow. 】

"She is my child..." Mrs. Bork held hands tightly, and Dumbledore sighed: "But... at first..."

I hope that the reason why you brought her back was to use her natural Legilimency to play a hole card for the things you may face in the future, isn't it?

I just didn't expect it to come so soon.

Mrs. Bork covered her face, and for a while, no one spoke.

Madeleine has done much better than they thought.

【"I really hope Dumbledore can let me go."】

["Impossible, girl." Snape said, he turned his head away, ready to send the two children back, so that they didn't notice Snape's strange expression at that moment: "After you were stared at by him, Even if he is here, he will not let you go."]

"Madeleine, what did you see?"

"I see that I'm smiling, my significant other is around me, we're having Christmas - and I'm smiling without baggage, like I'm supposed to be."

Helena hadn't gone out for a while, and Karkaroff chose to run away after receiving Voldemort's call, well... Helena knew, even if he was alive now.The future fate is still miserable.Durmstrang's team was taught by Krum and Helena to be orderly when they were in a state of desperation. Even if Krum didn't want to, in this case, he also knew that he needed to cooperate with Helena to make his school students have no accidents.

Then, on a rainy day, a dark green figure stood beside their boat, watching them quietly——

It's Madeleine Burke.

Helena knew that this day would come sooner or later, but she didn't expect it to come later than expected.She greeted everyone, put on her raincoat, and got off the boat.

"Are you here to beat me?" Helena asked jokingly. In fact, even if Madeleine really wanted to beat her, she would admit it.But Madeleine didn't. She pulled the hood of her cloak and said seriously to Helena: "We need to have a serious and thorough talk, Miss Hellman."

After leaving these words, Madeleine turned her head and walked towards Draco who was waiting for her not far away.Draco made two gestures to her, Madeleine froze for a moment, looked back, and found that Helena was standing still.

Madeleine glanced at Draco in some panic, then at Helena, and finally back at Draco.

Only then did Helena realize that Madeleine wanted her to go with her.

Helena struggled for a while, tidied her hair, and took the first step.

If she was facing a group of Slytherin beatings, she would admit it.

Ok.

Suddenly, there were a few horseshoes from the Forbidden Forest. Helena was stunned for a moment, and looked over, wondering if it was an illusion. There were a few horsemen watching the situation here in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, as if... …

thought Helena.

As if they wanted to see, next, the biggest variable.

Helena walked towards Madeleine.

Madeleine seemed a little relieved, but she looked very tired, and after Helena followed, she also got up and walked to Draco's side.Draco gave Helena a cold look, and asked Madeleine to stand beside him.With her hands behind her back, Helena said to them seriously: "If you want to hit me..."

"Miss Hellman, you are a guest of Hogwarts, we will not do such a rough thing to you." Draco evoked a sarcasm smile, and didn't even look at her, Helena paused, Draco continued: "Of course, we haven't forgotten what you did to Madeleine... It's just that now is not the time to talk about it."

Helena didn't speak anymore, the strong sense of disobedience made her feel very uncomfortable, Draco Malfoy in front of her didn't know why, and she was more mature than she knew.There were many doubts, but at least she kept Madeleine Burke alive.

Uh-huh.good.

"A few years ago, you should have come to Hogwarts through a secret passage." Draco changed the subject again. He chose to take a small path with few people, and held Madeleine's hand tightly. It seems that she doesn't want to have too much contact with Madeleine and Helena... like an overprotective guardian.

Terrible.

thought Helena.

"Indeed, I came to Hogwarts a few years ago, but why did I say this?" Helena guessed that Madeleine heard her talking to herself in the infirmary, but she didn't understand why she said that. this.

"I think you should also know that there is a Room of Requirement here." Draco said, and Helena also found that they stayed on the eighth floor. Of course, Helena always wanted to go to the Room of Requirement, but for some reason, there Never let her in.

But Draco Malfoy shouldn't know where the Room of Requirement is by now.

Helena's cold sweat broke out, and a bad premonition hovered in her mind.

Draco turned his head, his pale eyes met Helena's for a second, and then quickly moved away with unconcealable disgust.He held Madeleine's shoulders, bringing her closer to him.

"Are you trying to beat me up there?" Helena asked jokingly, but shook her left hand uncontrollably, holding the wand that popped out from inside: "Master...Master Malfoy, You should also know from your father that what Harry Potter said was not crazy, that man really came back."

"..."

Seeing that Draco and Madeleine didn't respond, Helena continued, "If Miss Madeleine wins the Triwizard Cup, she will definitely die there. I saved it..."

"Don't jump to conclusions." Draco interrupted them coldly, and pushed open the door of the Room of Requirement that appeared in front: "Helena Hellman, although I don't know what makes you think you know everything, But you will only pay for your arrogance."

"I don't think it's a big deal to save Miss Madeleine..." Helena also walked in. She felt offended by Draco. chose to prevent Madeleine from participating in the competition——

She stood in the Room of Requirement and looked around quietly. Then, after noticing the black diary, Helena's expression changed suddenly.Almost immediately, she assumed a defensive posture, staring at the diary.

After a few seconds of silence, Helena forced herself to open her mouth: "This shouldn't be, after Ginny was abducted into the secret room..."

"No, it was Madeleine who was abducted to the secret room." Draco corrected, and then, Helena felt a chill behind her, and even the little hair on her neck seemed to stand on end.She turned around and threw a spell immediately, but the spell passed through the blue-white translucent body behind and hit the wall of the Room of Requirement, leaving a scorched black mark.

Floating in the air, Tom looked around Helena formally, and then he nodded politely to Helena: "It seems that you know who I am... Hello, Helena Hellman—now, you Do you still think you saved Madeleine Burke?"

"It shouldn't be..." Helena gasped twice, and looked at Madeleine: "Harry should have destroyed him long ago!"

"Yeah, he thought he was ruined." Tom replied for Madeleine: "If you have so many questions, do you want me to answer them for you? Miss Helena."

Although he appeared polite, it was difficult to hide the disdain in his tone.Next, Tom Riddle whispered to her everything that Madeleine Burke had planned during this time, including the fact that Madeleine had a dragon heart, so she was able to resist the death curse, and told Helena— —At this moment, Helena suddenly thought of what her teacher said.

[Stop being self-righteous, Helena. 】

Stop being presumptuous, Helena.

She found that this sentence was not reminded by the teacher because she regretted what she had done in the past, but was really telling her not to take what she took for granted in the present world.

"So, now you know everything." Tom stretched out his hand, and with a smile on his face, he watched Helena's gradually twisted face full of fear. After a moment of silence, he looked at Madeleine: "This is the way to face me." normal reaction."

"..." Madeleine didn't speak, and looked at Helena for a while, and uttered the question she had always asked: "Then, Miss Hellman, can you tell me why you know those things? Even Hogwarts It doesn’t matter if it’s a secret passage that none of Ci’s students would know, or you thought it was Ginny who was kidnapped, or, even though we’ve been searching for so long, you easily found out about Barty Jr. and Voldemort. ——Could you please tell me all of this?”

"——" Helena opened her mouth, she seemed to want to say something, but finally got stuck in her throat, she covered her throat, and finally closed her eyes, without saying a word.

"Let's ask you another question, Miss Hellman." Draco frowned dissatisfiedly. Tom crossed his legs and looked down at Helena for a while. Finally, he propped his chin: "So that's the case, you can't Say. Someone swore an oath to you."

"Someone forbade her to say... Sure enough, I'd better call Professor Snape." Draco frowned, looked at Helena and continued, "It's just Occlumency..."

"No." Helena laughed: "I can't say, and you can't get my memory."

She opened her eyes again, and looked at Madeleine with those warm eyes. In the end, maybe she didn't expect that someone could do these things, or she didn't expect that someone would want Voldemort's Horcrux and Voldemort to compete for the body, She shared her deepest impression on Madeleine this year.

"Ha, you are amazing."

"..." Tom opened his eyes wide and followed Helena's gaze to look at Madeleine: "I think what she means is that you are crazy."

"No, I really think she is amazing." Helena clenched her hands, and finally hugged her shoulders tightly. She took a deep breath and said, "I want to talk to Dumbledore." Talk, thanks."

On the last day of the term, Dumbledore gave a speech, basically telling everyone that what Harry said about Voldemort's return was true.Madeleine was not there, she was in the Room of Requirement, looking at the Mirror of Erised.

This is the last time she looks at the Mirror of Erised.

Madeleine thought to herself.

She put her finger on the smiling girl, looked at it quietly for a while, and left the Room of Requirement.By the time she returned to the common room, the students of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons had left.I haven't paid attention to Slytherin for a while, but the atmosphere in Slytherin has changed subtly. Everyone seems to be thinking about the future.

At the train station, Madeleine was silent for a while, then slowly looked at Pan Xi: "Did you sleep well?"

Pansy froze for a moment. Madeleine hadn't spoken to anyone for a long time, including Pansy. When she heard Madeleine ask her this, she stretched out her hand and hugged Madeleine tightly.

"It's nothing."

Pansy replied.

"Nothing, Madeleine."

Madeleine reached out and touched Pansy's head, finally sighed softly, and closed her eyes.

The sound of the train gradually approaching, Draco called out Madeleine's name, and Madeleine led Pansy over.

The author has something to say:

The longest foreshadowing of the full text is probably revealed here ()

Why did Mrs. Bork accept Madeleine? Because it was Dumbledore's instruction, but Dumbledore didn't say the reason at the time. He hoped that the Borks would find out by themselves. In addition, Dumbledore still hoped that Madeleine could have a complete childhood.Mrs. Bork did not accept Madeleine at the beginning, at least not in her heart (the reason why she wrote about the Borks from the perspective of Madeleine in the preface is also because of this) But later on Madeleine, she was shocked. Ah, how can such a young girl be so miserable, plus Madeleine is indeed a very good child in daily life, Mrs. Bok really accepted Madeleine (damn)
