[HP] Flower of Eternal Life

The heavy clouds that had shrouded the castle had dissipated, and the gorgeous fire clouds in the evening were burning above their heads, as if they were celebrating the end of the dark age.

Those Death Eaters who were still alive fled in dismay, but no one was chasing them, everyone was cheering, shouting, hugging each other, and shedding tears of emotion.

The girl in a white robe walked up the steps slowly, walked up to the four children who were looking at her in surprise, then smiled and said, "Maybe I scare you, but don't be afraid, since you know there are If there is a parallel world, then you should also believe that there is another self in the parallel world."

They nodded, approving of her words, and then Albus was the first to ask: "I think it's all about you? Can you tell us why?"

There was a guilty expression on her face, but she shook her head lightly but firmly in the end: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you, this is the rule. But I have to admit that I am one of the masterminds behind the scenes, it is me I gave that glazed flower the magic of traveling through time and space to bring you here, and now I can also send you back to the original world." She said and tapped the palm of her left hand with the old wand held in her right hand, and a flower Different from the gloomy crystal flowers before, the four-color camellias that shone like the children had seen before appeared in her hands.

"When you touch this flower together, it will take you back to where you came from, I promise."

The four children exchanged glances with each other, and then Rose, Will, and Albus held the stem of the crystal flower one after another. Only Esther was a little slower. She stared at the girl with the same face as herself, and spoke softly. Ask: "You love Tom Riddle, don't you?"

After the white radiance spread before their eyes, they were able to hear the answer that seemed to come from the distant horizon——

"Yes."

That gentle voice belonged to another Esther.

The light gradually dissipated, and they stood in the Room of Requirement again, but the crystal flower in their hands no longer shined, it lost its former brilliance, like a castle built of white sand, it was reduced to powder under the influence of the tide of time and space, Disappear.

The children looked at each other, and then walked towards the door of the Room of Requirement tacitly, and returned to the corridors of Hogwarts. They happened to meet their herbalism professor Neville Longbottom who stared at them in surprise, as if seeing something ghost.

"How did you get out?" Professor Longbottom murmured in disbelief with his amiable round face drained of blood from surprise, "I mean, the Room of Requirement was destroyed in the final battle long ago? And Why didn't you take the express train back, are you going to stay in school for Christmas?"

They exchanged glances, and finally a sly smile appeared on Rose's face, and she briskly answered the professor's question: "I think it's a secret."

The four children ran away, ignoring the admonition of "don't run in the corridor" from behind. They rushed downstairs, walked through the corridor, and finally ran out of the huge hall together into the sunny blue sky under.

The snow-covered campus was silent. Most of the Hogwarts students had already returned to London by the Hogwarts Express train that departed in the morning. It seemed that they could only explain to their families later why they did not take the train. Get on the express train.

Will rolled a snowball from the ground and threw it at Rose by surprise, who immediately chased and beat him with a grin, while Albus watched the two companions run away with a smile, and finally turned his gentle eyes Throwing towards Esther standing beside him.

"I thought, maybe you'd like to take a walk by the lake with me?" The boy looked soft, and there was a trace of expectation and joy in the emerald pupils.

Esther gently held the boy's cool palm back, smiled, and replied, "Of course."

They walked side by side along the snow-covered path to the huge lake of Hogwarts, their fingers intertwined intimately, as if holding each other's world.
