[HP]Aluet

There was not a breath of wind in the hot air.The afternoon sun is more dazzling than ever, even through the hat my scalp is hot, and the restlessness and temperature in my heart rise together.

I wandered about Grimmauld Place, and I knew no other way of seeing Orion than to wait.I know I'll never hear from him again and I need to cut it all myself.

I can't afford to bet.

I knew early on that I didn't deserve those good things, they all left me one after another, and all the regrets made me wake up-I didn't want to lose him again.

Time passed minute by minute, and I finally saw him.Before he could even react, I dragged him into a nearby alley.

I let go.

"Aisley?" Orion watched me take off my hat in surprise.I lowered my head to catch a few breaths, then raised my eyes to look at him.

"I think it's time to clarify some things with you." My voice was calm.

Orion shook his head silently. I guess he probably expected it. He stepped forward a few steps, unwilling to let me continue, but I stepped back decisively, widening the distance.

"I don't think—" I took a deep breath, "we shouldn't be in touch anymore, Orion." I didn't dare to look at his expression, and continued to add, "I don't like it."

He stood there silent.

"I'm sorry." It took him a long time to speak, and he took a step back, "I didn't control myself properly, did I?"

My heart throbbed suddenly, I don't know why he apologized to me for this, I couldn't say anything immediately, a lot of words piled up in my mouth were all choked back, I blinked sore eyes.

"No——" I subconsciously denied, the shock of contradictions was raging in my body, and before I could not control them, I changed my words again and sped up the speed of speaking, "—Yes, Orion I'm a little tired of this feeling, I've thought about it for a long time, and I still plan to come and explain it to you, don't write to me again, and I won't come to you again in the future, so be it. "

"Are you serious?"

"Yes, we should all go back to our lives," I said.

He looked at me steadily.I hate that look, dark, sad, it hurts my eyes.I looked away, I wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

"No, I don't believe a word you say."

I looked at him in surprise.

"You are very bad at lying, Ashley. I thought we could solve all the problems properly, not in this way." Orion's expression revealed a trace of disappointment and sadness, "You still don't want to believe me. As long as A word from you, I can do anything for you. You don't have to... use these words to force me to leave, and I have no idea what happened."

Guilt rose from my internal organs to my throat and occupied my brain. I opened my mouth and suddenly realized that I shouldn't have done this.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Orion." My shame poured out into incoherent words, "I shouldn't have said that, they really don't represent my emotions - I was too selfish to consider yours Feelings. Merlin won't even know how remorseful I am - please forgive me."

"I'm not blaming you..."

I hugged him, and he stopped suddenly before he finished speaking, and stroked my back tentatively.

"You close your eyes, Orion," I said.

He hesitated for a while, and finally closed his eyes obediently.I left him, his hand found the cuff along my sleeve, and he held it tightly without letting go.

I watched Orion's bushy eyelashes tremble, and seemed to want to open them, but I didn't say so, so he didn't.

I stood on tiptoe and planted a light, light kiss on his cheek, so brief that it might be imperceptible.He was visibly stiff, and the strength of pulling me was reduced a lot.

I sighed lightly.

"Everything is forgotten."

My sleeve fell from his hand.

I flew away from that alley without looking back.

I cast a protective spell near NO.12, Grimmauld Square before leaving. On the way back, I actually felt relieved.

This is the best, I told myself.

I lay down on the bed with no energy, and my mind was empty, I didn't want to think about anything, and I didn't want to do anything.

Riddle is back from the Ministry, and I don't want to see him at all, so I close the door.

……

"As far as I know, he should entrust Ranbusi with the task of protecting one of the Horcruxes. He trusts Ranbusi a lot, and because of the incident at Lestrange Manor, he probably I want to give Ranbusi another chance to get this thing done again." Irina told me so.

"Oh—" I replied weakly, propping the back of my head on the back of the bench, staring at the clouds moving in the sky.

"Why?" She frowned, "Aren't you going to find out?"

"How?" I asked.

"Pay attention to Ranbusi's movements." She was surprised by my calm reaction, "Since this matter is entrusted to him, there will always be some flaws."

I just shook my head and didn't want to say anything more.

"Do you know of any way to destroy a Horcrux?" I asked.

"Perhaps, the Crushing Curse?"

"That won't work." I said, "All ordinary magic can't cause any damage to the Horcrux."

"If that's the case, maybe I have to try black magic." Irina curled her lips.

I sighed.

"What are you going to do?" she asked me.

"Don't do anything." I put down the empty teacup, got up and opened the door and walked out of the teahouse. Irina followed me.

"What do you mean?" she asked, "So you don't need me to help you find out anything, right?"

I paused, pushed my hair back from my forehead, squinted my eyes to face the harsh light, and thought about this question carefully.

"No need." I said, "I can't do anything now." I put my hands in my pockets and walked straight ahead. Irina stopped and didn't follow until I left her far behind. Disappear behind.

In August, I helped Irina make the potion as usual.

"Although you said you don't need it, I still think I should tell you that Ranbusi is always going to the Ministry of Magic these days. I don't know what he's going to do, but it's suspicious anyway. You can figure out the rest."

"Okay." I nodded perfunctorily.

"I want to ask you a question." Irina suddenly changed the subject.

"what?"

"Why are you helping me?"

"It's very simple, I have already told you very clearly."

"No, I'm asking," she said, "Why do you help me when you don't need me anymore?"

I was in a daze for a while, staring out the window, unable to think of an answer for a while.

"I don't know." I answered truthfully.

She snorted and didn't continue to ask the question: "Then why do you want to fight against the master—Voldemort? I don't understand."

"If he killed someone important to you, you'd be like me," I said. "Perhaps you could imagine Alphard."

"What does it have to do with him?" Irina frowned, swallowed the potion in one go, her expression twisted, and I felt the pain for her.

"When will this day end?"

I smiled: "When I die one day, it will be over." I patted her on the shoulder, she stared at me with wide eyes in disbelief, moved her shoulders, and avoided contact with me.

"Oh, yes, there is one more thing." After a long time, Irina added again, "We found a Silence in Newham."

"Momoran?" I was stunned for a moment, "Didn't it disappear very early?"

"Yes, it was originally announced in the United States that it had disappeared completely. There has been no movement for a long time. Today, it suddenly found silent traces in London. The Ministry of Magic will definitely take this seriously-after all, they almost disappeared in the UK. Announced that Momoran is extinct. But now it seems that it is obviously not yet." She said, "—he may have some interest in Momomo."

I know that the "he" in Irina's mouth refers to Riddle, and she still thinks it is awkward to call him by his first name, but it is not difficult to find that she is already deliberately trying to get rid of the habit of calling him "Master".

Is Newham...

"Got it, thank you."

I have to say, I'm also a little curious.Since I was born till now, apart from what I have read in books and heard from others, I have never seen a truly silent person.However, if the Ministry of Magic is not dispatched in time, it will definitely be a disaster.

Sure enough, the next day, Riddle took a few Death Eaters with him to visit Newham, and naturally I was not left behind.Although he didn't say it clearly, I already knew from Irina that he must be looking for Mo Ran. He even set off early in the morning before dawn-he wanted to meet the animal before the Ministry of Magic. Silent host.

I looked up at the collapsed roof.Gravel and broken wood were scattered on the ground, and I lifted my foot, bringing up dust.

They searched the house, and suddenly I glimpsed a pair of blue eyes beside a pile of tattered cabinets.I was startled, and took a few steps closer to observe carefully, but Avery who was beside me quickly noticed the abnormality here, and he stopped Riddle.

Riddle turned back and cleaned up the horrible place with his wand. I could see a girl in tattered clothes and covered in dirt shivering in the dark.

Riddle squatted down and looked at her with interest.

"What's your name?" he asked.But the little girl kept her mouth shut and said nothing.

Riddle waited for a while, feeling a little bored: "Take her back and put her in the basement, and I will tell the Ministry of Magic that Silence and its host are dead."

I frowned.

Ranbusi did not know where to take out a transparent ball, and the thing began to grow in his hand, until it grew to the size of a human head.As Mulciber approached the little girl, his gray-blue eyes slowly turned dark gray—even black.

Ranbusi moved the spherical object in front of the little girl. She curled up in fear, trembling all over, her body began to twist and deform, and even had a tendency to merge with the transparent sphere that gradually approached her.

The extreme panic made her shrink back hard, her eyes began to turn white, and the stone sand and wood chips flying in the air froze in mid-air.

"Wait a minute!" Not knowing what was driving me, I stopped them loudly.Several people turned their heads to look at me in unison, and the movement of their hands stopped.

I bit the bullet and said, "You guys will scare her." I said, "Let me do it."

They moved their eyes to Riddle's face.Riddle didn't say anything, took a step back, and acquiesced to my actions.

I breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward. The little girl's body was still trembling uncontrollably. I squatted down, and only then could I see the traces of blood seeping out of her tattered clothes. I looked at her exposed hands. And the calf, there are countless small whip-like scars on it.

I gently took her hand and comforted her soul. She didn't resist, but just stared at me carefully.

"What's your name?" I asked her softly.

She shook her head.

"I won't hurt you," I said. "We are all the same. You can try to accept your special ability, learn to control and use it a little bit-you don't have to be afraid of it."

Her chest was heaving, and I almost thought she was dumb and couldn't speak.

I tried to guide her to stand up, but suddenly there were chaotic footsteps behind me.

I let go of my hands and straightened up, and a man's voice sounded in my ears.

"The Ministry of Magic intervened in the investigation, and please leave this place for irrelevant personnel."

Riddle's face changed slightly, he obviously didn't expect the people from the Ministry of Magic to come so soon.

Riddle took out his assistant minister's certificate from his pocket.Those people looked at each other, showing puzzled expressions, but the man in the lead still bowed to Riddle: "I'm sorry, but we have just been notified, and all departments have sent people over, I don't know if you—" He spread Opening his hands, he pointed at me and several other Death Eaters behind Riddle, and asked tentative questions.

"I came here as soon as I received the news, maybe there was a mistake in the notification. I'll investigate the silent matter, you go back first, and I'll explain it to the minister when I get back." Riddle said indifferently.

Although the man was suspicious, he didn't say anything: "Okay."

He turned around, and a person suddenly walked up to him and whispered something in his ear.He turned his head abruptly, his eyes swept over me and those Death Eaters, I turned my face away, and those old Hogwarts students bowed their heads calmly or stepped back a little step.

"Please show me the certificate of the staff of the Ministry of Magic."

The air was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.

"You are not from the Ministry of Magic." He and a few Ministry of Magic staff behind him took out their wands from their pockets. Several Death Eaters quickly Apparated and left the place, and all the spells were empty. They flashed to the Ministry of Magic. The staff surrounded them from behind.

However, a sudden wind and sand stopped the fight.I shielded my face to keep the sand from getting in my eyes.

The body of the little girl by the wall rose into the air, her eyeballs were completely replaced by white, her body was twisted at an extremely strange angle, the flesh and flesh fused, interwoven, and torn with the black substance spreading from behind her, and finally turned into a There was a cloud of black dust, from which powerful and pure black magic aura emanated. They gathered together and flowed regularly, climbing up the wall, and gradually spreading around, until it spread to the entire house.

"Oops!" The man's expression changed drastically. Riddle and the Death Eaters took advantage of the chaos to leave the place, and I was no exception, but they just moved outside the house and did not leave in a hurry. I noticed the hidden danger in Riddle's eyes. strong killing intent.

He wanted to silence those who were in the way.Perhaps at this time, he could still blame the out-of-control Moran.

I rushed out of the house silently, and the ground was covered with bricks and stones. People on the street were frightened and fled in all directions. The endless screams made me have a headache.I took out my wand to defend myself, and the chaotic spells around me were firing at each other. I couldn't tell whether they were attacking silently or targeting wizards.

Silently raging on the street, the house was collided and collapsed, and the gravel accidentally bypassed my spell and scratched my face. silhouette.

My breathing stopped suddenly, and the instant the stone wall collapsed above his head, I apparated to him and cast the Iron Armor Curse.The huge impact made me take a few steps back, and he staggered in a little embarrassment, turning his head to look at me.

The moment I met those clean black eyes, I disappeared in place.

I escaped from there.

Riddle and the Death Eaters did not succeed in dealing with the Ministry of Magic staff, because they quickly sent a signal that the Ministry of Magic sent more people, and Riddle could only temporarily evacuate the place.

Perhaps it was time for him to figure out how to explain all this to Tufte.
