[HP] Ghosts of Grimmauld Place

?After returning home, Annie found a black motorcycle next to the garage.

Leo and Pa were mumbling something around the car.

"Dad, did you buy this?" Annie leaned over and asked.

"Oh, yes," said Mr. Hopps, "I heard Mr. Black say yesterday that you can cast a spell on a motorcycle and it will fly."

"That's why you bought it?" Annie looked in disbelief, "But you don't have a motorcycle driver's license at all, neither does our family!"

She glanced at Sirius, but he only shrugged his shoulders at her, with an innocent look on his face as if to say, "This is not my fault."

"I bet this car will be covered with a thick layer of dust in a week," Annie complained helplessly, "Dad, last time you bought a self-balancing electric skateboard on a whim, you only used it once, and you never took it again." I've come out."

"That's something for you young people. Maybe Leo can take it to school when school starts." Mr. Hopps said absently. He didn't even look at Anne, but pulled Sirius to study the motorcycle.

"It's a classic Harley, and while I'm not that willing to buy an American-made motorcycle, it's so tempting. To be honest, I've wanted to buy a motorcycle for a long time." Mr. Hopps He said excitedly, "Motorcycles, this is a man's romance!"

Sirius was also attracted by this motorcycle.In fact, as early as his teens, he had heard of Harley motorcycles.If nothing happened later, maybe he would buy himself one too.

Seeing that the three of them looked like they didn't want to talk to her, Annie had to go back to the room silently.

At this time, there is still some time before dinner.

She sat down at her desk and read the script of Much Ado About Nothing, but after only a few pages, her attention was elsewhere.

She reached to the bottom shelf of the bookshelf, groped for a while, and found a thick book from a corner.

"Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama" is written on the cover, and this is the school's admissions brochure.It introduces the various basic conditions of the school and the admission requirements of various majors in detail.

For half a year, Annie dared not tell anyone about her thoughts.She feels that she has no talent for acting, but she still wants to learn stage performance and dreams of entering the theater in the future. She will be laughed at if she says it.

"Oh..." She sighed heavily.I hid this almost torn book back to its old place.

*

Early the next morning, Annie went out alone.

Just a few hundred meters away from the house, she saw a strange middle-aged man poking his head out on the street with a sneaky look.

The suspicious look made her take a few more glances.

"Good morning, miss." The man greeted.

"Good morning, sir," said Anne tremblingly, and she took a few steps back, fearing that this man might be some villain.

"Don't worry, miss," said the man. "I'm not suspicious. I saw you yesterday in front of the Leaky Cauldron."

The Leaky Cauldron? "So...you're a wizard?" Anne asked.

"Yes, may I ask who that guy was with you yesterday?"

Annie fell into a brief silence, and then said slowly: "Want to take a walk together?"

"Of course, oh yes, my name is Neville Longbottom, call me whatever you want. My wife is the proprietor of the Leaky Cauldron."

"Mr. Longbottom..." Annie recited the name, as if she had heard it somewhere, but couldn't remember it.

"Maybe you know me, I'm a teacher at Hogwarts, and your brother is a student at Gryffindor," said Neville.

"Oh, yes, I remember," Anne said as she walked, "then you came here specially to find Sirius?"

"Is that really Sirius Black?" said Neville, overjoyed. "To be honest, I didn't quite believe it. He looked too young. But Hannah said she was sure it was Black, so I came to see Look. Harry knows he'll be delighted to..."

"Harry?"

"Don't you know Harry?" Neville asked.

Annie shook her head.

"He is Black's godson. In the past few years he has been looking for Black, but he has rarely mentioned it in the past one or two years. We all feel that he has given up." Neville explained.

Annie listened carefully, she didn't expect Sirius to have a godson, which was a bit unexpected. "Does Sirius know that he has a godson?" she asked.

Neville froze for a moment, "I think, I should know."

Anne nodded absently, thinking as she walked, why hasn't Sirius gone to find that Harry in the past half a month?Never even mentioning this person?

"I think I've got to break the news to Harry quickly," said Neville excitedly. "I'm sorry, Miss Hopps."

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared before Annie's eyes.

Annie didn't seem to notice that Neville had disappeared, and walked a hundred meters alone before realizing that she was left alone.

This dazed state lasted until the line was answered.

She uttered Beatrice's lines in a mess, and everything that should be full of energy and crispness became lifeless and lifeless.

"Annie, what's the matter with you today?" Tasha asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's nothing." Annie shook her head, "Sorry, I didn't practice well."

"Don't worry," Tasha comforted, "We still have a lot of time, we can practice slowly."

"Thank you, Tasha." Annie showed the most relaxed expression of the day, "Actually, it's still too late to change people."

The worry on Tasha's face became heavier again. "Annie, are you hungry?" she asked. "Shall we go for a walk?"

Annie nodded, feeling guilty for her delay.

There are not too many people on campus during the holidays.

Annie and Tasha walked aimlessly along the main road.

"Can you tell me what happened now? I've never seen you so distraught," Tasha patted Anne on the back and said, "Don't tell me it's because of the drama, I won't Believe it."

Annie stopped suddenly. "Tasha, what do you think love is like?" Her expression was a little melancholy, "I thought about it for a long time last night, like Beatrice and Benedick, the endless verbal battle? Bitter Sarcasm? I really don't get it."

Tasha didn't understand what Anne wanted to express at once, she said vaguely: "This is just to increase the dramatic conflict and comedy effect."

"I don't know what's going on, but I feel stuffy whenever I think of someone these two days." Annie said while clutching her chest.

"A person? Who? Do I know?" Tasha asked.

"You don't know him. In fact, I have only known him for two weeks." Annie thought for a while, and then said, "At first, I sympathized with him. But recently, I found that that feeling doesn't seem to be sympathy."

"Sympathy?" Tasha asked puzzled, "What kind of person is that?"

"He..." Sirius' face appeared in Annie's mind, but she didn't know how to describe it, so she paused for a few seconds, and only choked out a few words, "It looks good."

Tasha was speechless at the answer.

"By the way, I have photos." Annie took out her phone, "Do you want to see it?"

"Okay." Tasha moved her head closer.When she saw the photo, she couldn't help but exclaimed, "You're right, Anne. But he looks much older than you, where did you know him?"

The photo Tasha was looking at was the one that Annie and Sirius had taken in the barbershop.

"I met him in that apartment of mine," Annie said frankly, "he lives in my house now, but... I think he may move out soon." She sighed, "Maybe he will leave today gone."

"You...you said he lives in your house?!" Tasha's voice suddenly became much higher, and several people around cast curious glances. She quickly covered her mouth and said in a low voice, "Annie, this what is going on?"

"I can't tell." Annie sat down on a bench by the road. "I haven't asked where he came from, and I don't want to."

Tasha sat next to Anne, and she asked, "So you don't know him at all?"

"Perhaps," said Anne, thinking of the morning's events. "I just found out today that he has a godson, and it really shocked me. Before that, I knew he had been in prison before, and that was the only thing I knew. of his past."

prison? !Tasha said with a look of shock, "Is this... really okay? Are you sure you're not some bad guy?"

"Not a bad person." Annie said firmly.

Tasha looked at Annie silently.After a while, she reached out and gave Anne a hug and patted her on the head.

After speaking out, Annie felt much better in her heart.In the afternoon, she was able to rehearse the drama smoothly.Although it was not good enough, today's rehearsal barely passed smoothly.

Before going home, Anne went to the apartment in Grimmauld Place, and it took her more than an hour to clean every room, washing off the sheets and sheets.

She stared at the small corner of the bedroom in a daze, until the street lights outside the window were on, and then hurriedly locked the door and went home. ?

☆, 22

?It was past eight o'clock when Annie got home.

As soon as she entered, Leo greeted her.He said excitedly: "Annie, Annie, you know what! I saw Harry Potter today! He came to our house suddenly!"

"Oh..." Anne was not very emotional, she asked, "So, you already know Harry Potter?"

"Yeah, he's so famous!" Leo nodded vigorously, "You don't even know what Sirius looked like when he saw him, you can't imagine it. But I find it very strange, how on earth does he know that Sirius lives in the What about our family?"

Annie changed her shoes and went to the living room.

Leo followed her and continued, "I finally know why Sirius hasn't been looking for Mr. Potter. You know, Mr. Potter looks a little older than Sirius, I mean older, Of course, it's also about the dress... When they met, both of them were so shocked that they couldn't speak."

Annie asked, "What happened after that?"

"I didn't know it later," Leo said regretfully. "The two of them talked for a long time in the guest room. The door is locked, and I can't hear anything from outside."

"Is there anything else to eat? I'm so hungry." Annie's eyes moved to the kitchen, but she didn't find anything to eat.

"There are still some pork pies in the refrigerator. My mother estimated the wrong number and accidentally made too many," Leo said. "In fact, I hope Sirius can stay a few more days, so he promised me to teach me Animag Si, he just left. And motorcycles, he also promised to teach me."

"You have to take a driver's license test for motorcycles." Annie emphasized.

"Well, you're right." Leo said perfunctorily, "Then I'll have to wait a few more years to drive it."

"I want to move back to the apartment," Annie said suddenly.

Leo thought he heard it wrong, and asked uncertainly, "What did you just say?"

"I said I wanted to move back to the apartment in Grimmauld Place," Anne repeated. "There is no danger there. And the play has begun to be rehearsed. It is more convenient to live there and go to school."

"Did you guys discuss it? Why did you leave all of a sudden?" Leo complained dissatisfiedly, "Although what you said makes sense, it's too sudden."

"It wasn't sudden," Anne said. "I've already cleaned the apartment and washed the sheets. I think I can go back directly tomorrow."

"Then can I go to play with you every day?" Leo asked unwillingly.

"Of course, it's boring for me to be there alone." Annie smiled.

"I'll get you pork pie!" Leo jumped up from the sofa and trotted into the kitchen.

When he opened the refrigerator door, he raised his voice and said, "Actually, I'm still a little reluctant. Although Sirius has only lived in our house for two weeks, I think Mom and Dad like him quite a lot. Have you noticed that he is here?" These days, even dinner is much richer."

"That's because you lied to your parents that he is your teacher. Of course, you have to treat him well." Annie threw off her slippers and nestled into the sofa. She hugged her knees with her hands and changed to a squatting position.

"Maybe he will really go to Hogwarts to be a teacher," Leo said as he walked out with a tray in his hand, "Of course he may also become an Auror. Do you think he will come back?"

"I don't know." Annie said sullenly, took the plate from Leo, forked a piece of pork pie and took a big bite. "It's cold..." she mumbled, swallowing the cold pie.She had never eaten such a bad dish, and the egg in the middle of the pork pie was undercooked.

After eating the cold and sticky pork pie, Anne went straight back to her room to pack her luggage.When it comes to luggage, in fact clothes don’t account for much, and most of them are those thick and heavy hardcover books.

It only took 10 minutes for Annie to organize everything.She squatted in front of the bookshelf, and took out the admission brochure of the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama from the bottom.

Because I have flipped through it too many times, as soon as I open it, the book will naturally freeze on that page.

I really want to go to Scotland, she sighed, and put the book back where it was.

The next day, she went back to her apartment in Grimmauld Place.

Life seemed to be back before I met Sirius. Apart from going to school for rehearsals, I read books in the apartment, practiced reciting, and baked some cakes for Leo to take home on weekends.

Such an ordinary day, five days have passed in the blink of an eye.

It was a gloomy night.

Annie suddenly heard something hit the window, and there was a loud "boom", which woke her up from her dream.

Looking out of the window, it was a pair of big and round eyes staring straight into the room.

owl?

Annie walked to the window in a panic, and found that there was still a letter in the owl's mouth.

She hesitated, and opened the window.The chubby owl flapped its wings and flew in.But it didn't stay, but turned around and flew away after dropping the letter, disappearing directly into the night.

Anne had seen Leo communicate with classmates through owls before, which should be a communication tool used by wizards.She also expressed doubts about this inefficient communication network before, after all, no matter how fast an owl flies, it can't fly faster than wifi.

It's just... Who is this letter from?

Annie stared at the letter on the ground. A corner of the letter paper had fallen out of the envelope—it was slightly yellowed parchment.

☆, 23

? Sirius did not expect to meet Harry under such circumstances.

At that time, he and Leo were having afternoon tea when the doorbell rang suddenly.Although during the period of living here, neighbors came over for afternoon tea from time to time, but that was when the Hoppses were at home.

It can be said that such a sudden visit has never happened before.

Leo put down his black tea and ran to open the door, Sirius cast a curious look in the direction of the door.

"You...you...you are..." Leo was so excited that he couldn't speak, he gasped, "You are Harry Potter!"

These words were like a heavy bomb, hitting Sirius' heart hard.

For a moment, he felt his mind was blank, until the black tea dripped down the table onto his pants, he hurriedly picked up the teacup and stood up.

What should I say?

In fact, he had already thought of all kinds of words for this meeting that would happen one day, but he couldn't think of anything at this moment.

damn it!

Sirius felt nervous.

He saw Harry coming in after Leo, and at the first glance, he saw Harry's black hair, with a few strands of hair sticking up in disobedience.

"..." Sirius couldn't even utter a word, staring into Harry's green eyes.Although he already knew that Harry was 35 years old, when he saw this godson who was older than himself, his inner feelings were really shocking.

As if infected by the nervousness, Harry's hand clutched the hem of his trousers unnaturally.

The two looked at each other like this.

Silence, still silence.

"I'll make you tea! Mr. Potter!" Leo's voice broke the awkward and tense atmosphere.

"Harry..." Sirius called the other party's name first.

There was a little joy on the face of the other party, but it was not just that simple. "Are you really Sirius Black?" His voice trembled a little nervously.

Sirius nodded: "You look a lot like your father, Harry."

"You look...you look..." Harry felt that the words were too ridiculous, and he was a little speechless, "It seems to be about my age..."

"The situation is a bit complicated, but I will explain it to you." Sirius said sincerely.Looking at Harry's face, he felt that it was really difficult for him to act like an elder.

Harry surveyed the house for a moment, then returned his gaze to Sirius. "Siris," Harry asked, feeling a little strange when the name came out of his mouth, "have you been living here? I've been looking for you since... since Voldemort died, but I can't find you anyway." , there is no news at all."

Sirius shook his head. He turned to Leo who was still making tea and said, "Leo, there's no need for tea. Harry and I will go to the guest room to have a private talk."

"Eh?——" Leo put down the teapot in disappointment, half of the tea in the cup was poured, "Well, I won't bother you."

*

Being alone with Harry felt even more tense.Sirius quickly thought about how to explain to explain things clearly, but the more he thought about it, the more confused he became, there was too much to say.

"I know you have a lot to ask, you can ask, I will answer, okay?" He chose the easiest way.

Harry nodded and asked the first question. "Where have you been since you left Azkaban? Well... Maybe I have to ask how you escaped from Azkaban first. When I first entered school, I saw your arrest warrants everywhere ,actually……"

It's not so much a question, it's better to say something that hasn't been said for so many years.Harry spoke so fast that Sirius couldn't interrupt him at all.

"Actually, I hated you back then. I thought you killed my parents."

"James is my best friend, I would rather die than harm him." Sirius said sincerely.

"I'm really sorry that I ever thought that way. We didn't know Peter Pettigrew set you up until later. But you had been missing for years..."

"Actually, for me, I left Azkaban only ten days ago." Sirius contemplated for a long time before saying this.

He saw a mixture of bewilderment and shock on Harry's face.

"Although it sounds unbelievable, the evidence is right in front of your eyes. Otherwise, how could I not have aged at all for decades."

"But...it doesn't make sense..." Harry murmured incredulously.

"I didn't do anything, and I came here from Azkaban inexplicably," Sirius said, "I thought about looking for you, but when I knew that you already had a family of your own, I hesitated. I I am not worthy to be your godfather at all, I think you must have been confused and needed help once, but I have never been by your side for a moment. I... have not paid anything for you..."

Harry shook his head.

"I never blamed you for this," Harry held Sirius' hand, "Although I still find it incredible, but I... I... I'm sorry, I don't even know what to say... "

Sirius was as excited as Harry, and he said, "That's enough. I only planned to go to Platform Nine and Three Quarters on the first day of school and see you and your children from a distance. Now It has exceeded my expectations so much.”

"Boy... yes, my boy, do you want to meet them?" Harry asked excitedly. "Sirius, would you... mind moving in with us?"

If this question had appeared ten days ago, Sirius would have chosen to agree without hesitation.But now, he hesitated.

"Maybe... I can go and see them," he said. "I'm not ready yet, and maybe they are too. It's not easy to accept having a stranger in your family."

"You're not a stranger!" Harry emphasized, "James, Albus and Lily, they will welcome you very much."

"..." Sirius was a little moved when he heard these names. After a while, he said, "What a good name..."

In the end, Harry stopped insisting that Sirius move in with him, but he hoped that Sirius would at least have dinner today.

Sirius didn't refuse the request, and he even enjoyed the meal until the end of the meal.James was the first of the three children to accept him, and after a few words, he began to strike up a conversation.I don't know if it's because of the same name, but when Sirius looked at James, memories flooded his mind, but it was no longer as heavy as it used to be.

Afterwards, he told Harry a lot about James, almost everything he could remember.One topic after another, both of them seemed to have endless things to say, and neither of them stopped first.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Sirius reluctantly said goodbye to the Harry family.But before he could get out of the door, he was blocked.

It's from the Ministry of Magic.

They took Sirius away without a word.

Decades later, Ministry procedures are still cumbersome and pointless.It took those people a whole day to determine whether Sirius Black was really him, and another two days to reverse the case for him.On the fourth day, they studied for a long time, whether this kind of thing that crosses time and space needs to be corrected.

It was not until the fifth day that Sirius regained his freedom.But at this time, everyone in the wizarding world knew that Sirius Black had returned.

Endless interviews and socializing, Sirius had a hard time avoiding everything.

When he dragged his tired body back to Anne's house, only Leo was at home.

Annie had actually moved back to her apartment in Grimmauld Place, a development that caught Sirius a little off guard.

"Maybe you can go see her tomorrow," Leo suggested, "but she'll be home for dinner tomorrow, so you can just stay here and wait."

Sirius weighed it, and suddenly had an idea in his mind.

"Have you got an owl, Leo?" he asked.

☆、I want to go to your house

?Annie finished reading the letter from Sirius. There were a few words she had never seen before, and there were strange names one after another, and the long length made it a bit difficult for her to read.

However, it could be seen that Sirius must be very happy.In fact, after Annie learned of the reason why Sirius was imprisoned that year through Leo, she often thought about a question. Maybe it was not because of his age that Sirius was reluctant to meet Mr. Potter, but because of his inner heart. Difficult obstacle to overcome.

This kind of vague speculation has always existed in Anne's heart, and she even suspected that even ten years in prison could not reduce the guilt in Sirius' heart by half.

She tried to put herself in the situation and imagine the situation at that time, but she couldn't feel any other emotions except pain.

She's not a wizard, she can't understand things that wizards take for granted.It is the existence of this gap that makes the answer to this question far away from her and vague.

With complicated emotions in mind, it took a long time for Anne to fall asleep again.

Early the next morning, the roar of the accelerator resounded through the entire street outside.

Annie, who was woken up, pushed open the window angrily and shouted downstairs: "No horns are allowed on this street!"

"I'm not honking," said a voice lazily, "I'm just reminding you that it's time to get up."

Si... Sirius?Annie woke up completely, looking at Sirius' outfit, she really didn't know what to say.

Motorcycle and sunglasses?It's not filming, and those sunglasses are... so ugly.

"Do you have a motorcycle driver's license?" Annie was obsessed with this question.

Sirius just shrugged nonchalantly.

"And the helmet! Why didn't you get arrested by the traffic police?" Annie explained the traffic safety law to Sirius Cope with righteous words, and suddenly she realized that the motorcycle looked familiar, it was the one she just bought a few days ago, "it No license yet..."

"Are you sure you really want to keep talking like this?" Sirius took off his sunglasses and stuffed them into his pocket.

"Give me 10 minutes, no, 15 minutes!" Annie's figure disappeared from the window before she finished speaking.

Sirius smiled crookedly, and looked away from the empty window.He leaned on the motorcycle boredly, 15 minutes is not a time that can pass in the blink of an eye.

While waiting, his eyes inadvertently fell on the building next to him.

The scratched black door came straight into his field of vision.The silver snake-shaped door handle was still as disgusting as before, Sirius snorted disdainfully, and pushed the motorcycle a little further away.

Twenty minutes later, Annie ran downstairs in a hurry, busy with her hair as she ran.

"I still have to rehearse the play today, but it's the last scene. So I think maybe it won't take too long. If you don't mind, you can..." Annie suddenly remembered that there was a kissing scene in this scene, so she had to Rephrased, "You can walk around."

"Huh? I thought you were going to invite me to watch your rehearsal."

"Rehearsals aren't very interesting..." said Annie vaguely.

Although it is very common to have kissing scenes in dramas, just like "Romeo and Juliet", you can't count the kissing scenes in one hand, but...it is still very embarrassing to be seen by people you know well.

Annie patted her face, hoping that this unprofessional thought would disappear quickly.

"Where are you going now?" She changed the subject, "The rehearsal didn't start that early."

"At your command." Sirius handed Anne the helmet hanging on the handlebar of the motorcycle.

"No," Annie pushed back the helmet, "I refuse to ride in this car! I don't want to be chased by the traffic police on the street early in the morning."

"What does that matter, anyway, I can make them forget what happened."

"This...isn't so good," Annie was a little shaken, "and I haven't decided where to go yet."

"Do you want to go to Diagon Alley?" Sirius asked.

"Hmm..." This question reminded Annie, and she said something that had been in her heart for several days, "Actually... if possible, I have a place I want to go. I heard that before you When you were in school, you ran away from home, have you ever returned home since then?"

The expression on Sirius' face became a little serious, "So you want to come to my house?" He looked at Anne, "What if I say 'no'?"

Annie froze for a moment, and said, "Then I won't go."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if I take you there," Sirius said, "It's just that there's nothing to see there, it's just a dilapidated house."

"Maybe there will be a chance next time," Annie's tone sounded a little disappointed, she picked up the motorcycle helmet and prepared to put it on, "and I don't have to go."

"Wait a minute." Sirius grabbed Annie's wrist, and he took the helmet from Annie's hand and hung it on the handlebar again. "Now, you turn around and look at that house." He whispered in Annie's ear, "It's right next to your apartment, pay attention."

Annie's eyes widened immediately, and she turned around obediently, but she didn't see anything different except for the wall bricks and the window sill.

"There is magic here, and not everyone can see it," Sirius explained to Anne, pulling out his wand (he bought a new wand in Diagon Alley), "the magic will make it difficult for you to notice that there is still magic here." There is a door. Even if you pass by here every day, you will not find that the house number of the house on this street is missing a '12'."

"So your home is here?" Anne blinked hard, but still didn't see the door Sirius mentioned.After a few more seconds, she showed a suddenly realized expression, and said excitedly: "Actually, there was such a plot in "Doctor Who". Amy's house had a door that she hadn't noticed since she was a child. But that It's alien technology, not magic, it's an alien hiding in her home. And that alien..."

"Hush—" Sirius interrupted Anne, and with a slight wave of his wand, he cast a spell.

With the end of the spell, a black door covered with scratches appeared in Anne's vision.

"Wow..." Annie murmured incredulously, "So there really is a door here."

"Let's go." Sirius naturally took Anne's hand and led her to the door.When he walked up the steps, he stopped and said: "Be quiet when you pass through the porch."

"Huh?" There was a hint of confusion in Annie's eyes.

"That will wake up the people in the painting, and once they wake up, there will be endless screams." Sirius' hand was already on the snake-shaped doorknob.With a little effort, the old door opened.

The long porch was dark, dimly lit by candlesticks and gas lamps.With the light, Annie could only see clearly the broken and dirty carpet on the floor, and on one side of the wall, a large piece of wallpaper had peeled off, revealing the moldy wallboard inside.

Thinking of Sirius' warning before, Annie quickly covered her mouth, and followed behind Sirius without saying a word.

After closing the door, the narrow porch became even darker. Anne subconsciously clenched Sirius' hand. Although she felt a little scared in her heart, her eyes still looked around uncontrollably.

On the wall she saw a huge portrait of an old lady in a pointed black hat, with yellow and wrinkled skin and a drooling mouth.Annie felt that the saliva seemed real, with a flowing texture. She stared at it curiously for a while, and when she looked away, the old lady in the painting opened her closed eyes and was dripping. Stare at her.

"..." Annie gasped in fright, took a step forward, and bumped directly into Sirius' back.

"What's wrong?" Sirius asked in a low voice.

Annie pointed to the painting behind her.

"Ignore her." Sirius glanced at the woman in the portrait with disgust, and pulled Anne quickly towards the stairs leading to the second floor.

☆, 25

? There was a large living room on the second floor. Anne saw a large glass window facing the street on the wall. At this moment, the morning sun was casting a vague shadow on the floor through the gray glass.

In the air irradiated by the beam, tiny dust particles can be seen tumbling and floating.Annie couldn't help but sneezed. She wiped her nose and looked to the other side of the room.A large retro-shaped fireplace is surrounded by two glass cabinets, one on the left and one on the right. There are still some charred charcoal piled up in the fireplace, but the charcoal has already been covered with spider webs.The glass cabinet door is even more dirty
